The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman
Chapter 173 Apricot Orchard Exploring Flowers
Chapter 173 Exploring the Flowers in the Apricot Garden ([-])
In terms of appearance, Li Jing looks quite dignified and handsome. At first glance, it gives people a feeling of being upright and serious.
But in fact, he is very good at speculation, and he is also very good at managing interpersonal relationships.
For example, on the second day after the policy theory exam, Cui Youbo invited several new friends to a wine shop for a drink.
Li Jing could clearly see that Cui Youbo admired him very much, and both of them came from aristocratic families, so they had a lot of common language with each other.
The only thing that made me uncomfortable was that Liu Han's attitude towards them was a little cold, but Cui Youbo regarded Liu Han very highly. Seeing that he was not very warm to Li Jing, Wu Feng and others, Cui Youbo's enthusiasm also dropped a bit.
This kind of situation made Li Jing a little uncertain again—should he continue to make friends with Cui Liu, or try to make friends with Cui Ba? !
While hesitating, Cui Liu sent someone to post a post to Li Jing, inviting him to go to Cui's restaurant to have a talk when he had time.
This caused the balance in Li Jing's heart to fluctuate left and right, and instantly tilted towards Cui Liu. Immediately, he actively ordered someone to send a reply, and invited Cui Liu to meet at the wine shop tomorrow.
At noon the next day, Li Jing went to the 'Didian' and pawned a jade pendant carved from ancient jade with him, went to Dongshi to buy some valuable gifts, and took it to Cui's restaurant.
In the restaurant, before Cui Huibo arrived, Li Jing ordered a few signature dishes in advance.By the way, Cui's restaurant has developed more than a dozen new dishes, all of which are stir-fried dishes.You know, most of the current dishes are steamed, boiled and grilled. The emergence of Cui's stir-fried dishes has really attracted many gluttonous customers in the capital, and it has really made the Cui's restaurant shine.
Fortunately, Xiao Nan doesn't often hang out in the market, otherwise she would raise her forehead again—— dear, can't you keep a low profile?
No mistake, Cui Wei's contribution to stir-fried dishes in Cui's restaurant is entirely due to it, because historically, stir-fried dishes with vegetable oil did not appear until the Song Dynasty.
Because of the cooking, the business of Cui's restaurant was booming. Just after dinner time, the restaurant on the upper and lower floors was crowded with diners, and there was even a queue at the door.This is in stark contrast to the Hushang wine shop next door.
No matter how the orchids next door are soliciting customers at the door, many people would rather stand and wait at the door of Cui's restaurant than go to the next door.
Seeing this scene, Li Jing's mind became more vivid.
It stands to reason that the noble family has always despised business affairs, let alone doing business, even when buying things, bargaining will be laughed at.
But Li Jing is different. He saw with his own eyes that his family almost caused a quarrel between husband and wife, and brothers fought against each other because of "vulgar things" such as gold and silver... Such is the case with a down-and-out family, who are obviously short of money, but still insist on putting on airs In the end, they could only 'sell the marriage' and 'sell the ancestors'. These behaviors can only be summed up in one sentence, 'if you become XX, you need to set up a memorial archway'.
In order to avoid falling into that situation himself, when Li Jing went out to study, he consciously explored financial resources, investing and doing business with the meager property in his hands.
Over the past few years, Li Jing has also accumulated a private property, which he hid strictly outside. In ancient times, parents paid attention to selfless wealth. An undivided son like him was found by his parents and elders when he built a private house. ,Very serious consequences.
It is precisely because of his small assets that Li Jing has the confidence to give up his family.
And it was also because of the excessive investment that Li Jing had a bit of business acumen. Seeing the booming business of the Cui Family Restaurant, he also pondered the possibility of opening a restaurant.
Just as he was thinking, Cui Huibo walked into the wine shop with a woman wearing a cape.
Li Jing took a glance, saw that it was Cui Liu, and hurriedly came out to meet her, his eyes only flicked across the woman's body without stopping, as if the people around Cui Huibo didn't exist, he greeted with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Liu How is Lang Jun?!"
Cui Huibo kept staring at Li Jing, seeing that he was not like that kind of frivolous person, and he didn't show curiosity about the woman beside him, instead he saluted calmly and greeted him, which made him somewhat satisfied, so he saluted immediately, " Li Lang doesn't need to be too polite, two days of spring has passed, with Li Lang's talent, he will definitely be able to be a Jinshi and rank?!"
Li Jing waved his hands modestly, then glanced at the woman beside Cui Liu, as if he had just seen the existence of this person, and asked casually, "Liu Lang, this is—"
Cui Wei looked at Li Jing carefully through the separated black gauze, and saw that he was handsome and handsome. Although he didn't have any expensive accessories on his body, there was a kind of aloofness from a noble family coming from his bones, which made people feel He comes from a famous family.
At present, although Li Jing is asking for the Cui family and the sixth brother, there is no humbleness of a supplicant in his brows, nor is he shy and flattering. He is indeed, as the sixth brother said, a good man who can be entrusted to him for life .
Thinking of the word life, under the black tulle, Cui Wei's cheeks blushed involuntarily, she lowered her head slightly, bowed her knees slightly, and said softly: "My third lady Cui, I have seen Mr. Li Dalang .”
Cui Huibo was very satisfied with Li Jing's performance. He introduced with a smile: "This is my third sister. Because I want to make flower paper, I want to go to Dongshi to buy some paint and paper. I just want to come to Li Lang's appointment. Thinking of going along the way, he brought her along. Hehe, since we have arrived at our restaurant, Li Lang is not an outsider, so he came over to say hello."
Cui's restaurant is in Chongrenfang, Cui's is in Qinrenfang, and Dongshi is in the middle of the two, so it's not an excuse to say it's on the way.
Li Jing's tiger eyes were full of light, and he guessed a possibility in his heart. Could it be that Cui Liu thought... Well, if his information is correct, Cui Liu has a younger sister of the same mother, who is about seventeen or eighteen years old and unmarried , could it be...
Cui's daughter, although she is only a concubine, she is also the direct granddaughter of Cui Xianggong, the direct niece of Cui Xianggong, and she is by no means the daughter of an ordinary family in decline.
If he could marry her, it would be a good marriage.
Li Jing suppressed the excitement in his heart, and saluted the girl who was wrapped up tightly by Yanli with his usual expression, "So, I have seen Mrs. Cui San!"
Cui Wei nodded slightly, and her voice was as mellow as a yellow warbler, "Mr. Li Dalang is polite, I still have something to do, so I won't bother you and Brother Six. Farewell!"
After finishing speaking, Cui Wei bowed to her elder brother again, and before leaving, she gestured to Cui Liu a hand gesture familiar to both brothers and sisters, and then walked out of the wine shop with light lotus steps.
Watching Cui Wei leave with a group of servants, Cui Liu smiled more sincerely, and dragged Li Jing into the reserved private room, where he went to question the details of his future son-in-law.
Regarding the marriage, the two of them did not say anything clearly, but they both knew each other well: Cui Huibo was waiting for Li Jingchunwei's results, while Li Jing was hurrying up to find out the details of Cui's second wife.
In the process of inquiring about the news, Li Jing hooked up with a small steward of Rongkang Hall. After spending a lot of money, he successfully handed Cui Wei a 'note'.
As for Cui Wei, after she came back, she heard Cui Huibo talk about Li Jing's family background and family situation, and her impression of him became better and better--Longxi Li family, this is the current royal family, and it can be called the first family. up.
Although Li Jing is only a side branch, he is still the direct descendant of this branch, and he can be regarded as a noble family.
In Cui Wei's later life, she watched a lot of braid dramas, and she paid more attention to imperial power in her heart. Although the Xiaoliu family ordered people to correct it for a long time, this deep-rooted impression cannot be broken overnight.
Therefore, when mentioning the nobles of Guanlong and the Li family of Longxi, Cui Wei felt an inexplicable respect.Invisibly, it also offset the fact that Li Jing's family background is not very good.
After listening to Cui Huibo's introduction, Xiaoliu's feelings towards Li Jing were not bad, but they were not very good either, it could only be considered average.
At least if she were to marry her daughter, she would never choose a sandalwood toilet like Li Jing.
Of course, Cui Wei is just her sister-in-law, and she is also a very restless sister-in-law. Xiao Liu's goal is only one, and that is to marry off this restless trouble as soon as possible, 'putting blame' on it.
Xiaoliu's only cares about when 'Huishui' can be married off, as for who will take over, it is out of her consideration.Uh, no, she wants to add an additional clause when the sister-in-law welcomes the bride, once the goods are shipped, they will not be returned or exchanged!
As for Cui Huibo, he had a good impression of Li Jing, and honestly speaking, Li Jing's appearance won him a lot of points during this period.Everyone understands Xiang Youxinsheng's words, and he is indeed handsome and dignified enough to make people feel at ease just by looking at him.
...The three brothers, sister-in-law and sister-in-law all voted for Li Jing.
Therefore, Xiao Liu turned a blind eye to Li Jing's bribery of a servant to write a letter to his sister-in-law.
Cui Huibo immediately wrote a letter to Jinyang's parents, introducing Li Jing's situation and Cui Wei's request for his future husband-in-law, and finally added in a filial tone, " ...Everything is up to Aye Niang to decide."
And tactfully said that the third sister is really not young, and if she drags on, she won't be able to find a better partner.
In his words, he didn't criticize his aunt, but Cui Huibo understood that this letter itself was a silent accusation against his aunt.Cui Liu and his wife both felt that based on this alone, no matter whether it was Aye or his aunt, in order to compensate Cui Wei, they would add some dowry to Cui Wei at their discretion.
Cui Wei didn't know about this, and now there are little pink bubbles around her, and she is in a sweet love.
It has to be said that when Li Jing wholeheartedly pleases someone, no one can escape.
Xiao Nan in the previous life couldn't do it, and neither can Cui Wei in this life.
Every morning, Cui Wei will be full of blurred eyes, with a sweet smile on her mouth, waiting for Li Jing's "love letter": maybe a love poem, maybe a few essays, maybe a poem or a painting, maybe just a few strokes Graffiti... But Cui Wei can feel that someone on the other side is caring about her wholeheartedly.
However, the rest of the Cui family didn't know about Cui Wei and Li Jing's small actions.
And yesterday, Li Jing's daily love letter to Cui Wei mentioned that on February [-]th, the new Jinshi had a banquet in Qujiang, and after the banquet, they went to the apricot orchard to see flowers, and invited Cui Wei to enjoy the spring.
Now that she suddenly heard Xiao Nan's words, Cui Wei couldn't help being startled, thinking that her affair with Li Jing had been exposed.
In a panic, I heard Xiao Nan say again: "When the time comes, you, the fourth sister, and the eldest sister of Hepuyuan will all go with me. Besides the three of you, I also invited the county lord of Dingxiang, Junjun Cheng, and County Lu Jun..."
