Reborn Nongmen Merchant Concubine

Chapter 319 Night Watch

In Xiangfu, all members of the Ling family, except for the two younger ones, waited in the living room for Ling Xiaoyu to come back and watch the night together.

"Master Xiang, I didn't have time to tell you at the banquet that Yu'er of our family has a girl he likes, that is, she is also a businessman!"

Ling Guocheng raised his eyebrows: "Businessman? We already have a businessman in our family. Adding another one will change our Ling family from a scholarly portal into a merchant? Madam, tell him later that this matter Son, I don't agree!"

"What do you disagree with?"

Before Mu Zi'er could respond, Ling Xiaoyu came in and just overheard something.

"I don't agree with the matter between you and the business girl! Today's New Year's Eve, let's watch the night first, and other things will be discussed after tonight. In any case, our Ling family is a scholarly family, and you have someone like you." Being a businessman is already embarrassing enough, if another daughter-in-law is also from a businessman, then the face of our old Ling family will really be lost!"

"Master, it's as long as the kid likes it. It's rare for him to come across something he likes. It's better than we forced him, right? Besides, Yu'er is the second child, and they will be separated in the future. The two brothers will do business and the other will do business." It’s good to be an official career!”

Ling Xiaoyu already knew that things between him and Mengyuan could not go so smoothly, but he didn't expect that his parents' opposition would be so strong!

"Father, there's nothing wrong with the merchant. At least I have something in common with her. Just like brother and sister-in-law, sister-in-law is also a scholarly family. The husband and wife also have common topics, and so do you and my mother! I can't read books. Well, the business is good. They say that the pot goes with the lid. Do you want your son and me to marry a daughter of a scholarly family and come back to make offerings?
Shi Nong Shang Shang, you are a father who looks down on your own son, can you expect an outsider to look down on your son and me? "

Seeing his brother's embarrassment, Ling Xiaotian, who is already a father, couldn't bear to stand up: "Father, the second brother has his own ideas, he is no longer a child, you can let him make up his own mind! We haven't seen the girl before, so we'll reject all of them, it's not fair to the second brother, and it's not fair to other girls!"

With such objections from his parents, Ling Xiaoyu dared not tell the story that he had given his dowry gift list to Meng's family without authorization in advance!According to his father's angry temper at the moment, he can really beat him with a big stick regardless of face!

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things on this kind of day, Yu'er, after the new year, you take some time to bring the girl to show your parents."

Mu Zi'er turned around dramatically, on the surface it looked like she was helping her young son out of the siege, but in fact it was posing the biggest problem for Ling Xiaoyu!He can't bring a nine-year-old girl to show his parents a look, can he?Moreover, at the age of nine, that is the age when she is still acting like a baby in the arms of her parents, but Meng Yuan is a girl who has already started to roll in the business world. No one will believe this unless she has seen it with her own eyes!

However, even so, Ling Xiaoyu could only nod his head and agree to this matter first. When the time comes, it's time to take a step forward.

Watching the night is extremely boring. Of course, it is also boring in a big family's house, because Mengyuan is busy emptying out the old incense ash in the incense burner at home and replacing it with fresh straw ash .

"Cheng Bo, I've packed all these, please help me put them up! It's getting late, and I'm going to offer incense and tea later."

"Girl, you are young, so it is good to leave the night watch to the old slave. The old slave has done this every year in the previous master's house, and I am very familiar with it. Don't worry!"

"Cheng Bo, it's not that I'm worried about you, and it's the first year of my new home. I want to watch the next night. I will try it now if I have the opportunity. I don't want to regret it when I don't have the opportunity in the future."

"That's right, young people, some things do take time, we are old, many things, even if you want to do it now, you can't do it!"

"Cheng Bo, I'll hold a wedding banquet for you and Granny Hua after the new year. Our family has had too many unlucky things recently, and we need some festive things to wash away the bad luck."

"The old slave thanked the girl here. I discussed it with Huayu. I don't plan to make a big deal when I am too old! However, since the girl said that it was because of the bad luck, the old slave will put this marriage I will do it properly, and I will never let you down, girl!"

"Hehe, Uncle Cheng, getting married is a major event in a person's life. Of course it has to be done! Don't worry, I will cover all the money for your girl. Not only that, but when the time comes, I will have to take the chef from Yuefulou Ban Ke, please come and serve Cheng Bo at your wedding!"

What Mengyuan said, Cheng Qiang knew that with his girl's face, it would not be a big deal to invite all the chefs from Buyang Town, let alone the chef class in Yuefulou!Who told those famous chefs not to have received Mengyuan's favor!
It’s as small as mentioning some cooking skills, or as big as giving away recipes. Chefs, of course, take cooking as their vocation. It’s one thing for a chef to master his own family skills, but it’s another thing to learn it well the day after tomorrow. !Besides, those recipes given by his girl are praised by Mr. Li!
Cheng Qiang really doesn't know what to say about Meng Yuan's generous writing! "Everything is up to the girl to decide, old slave, I just feel at ease and be a bridegroom official!"

"That's right, it's a wonderful thing to be able to tie the knot with the person you like." Mengyuan didn't know whether she was speaking to Cheng Qiang or herself, because her mind was full of thoughts now. They are all figures of Ling Xiaoyu.

At the same time, what Mengyuan didn't know was that Ling Xiaoyu was also facing the 'interrogation' of the elders in the family, but obviously, Ling Xiaoyu's chances of winning were not great.If Ling Xiaoyu had said that Mengyuan was a village girl at the beginning, perhaps there would not be too many disputes. Of course, this was only for his father, and her mother, a scholarly scholar, could not tolerate people from the countryside. people!
As for the reason, he still hasn't figured it out.The matter between him and Mengyuan, no matter if it is a businessman or a village girl, to his parents, both advantages and disadvantages are equal!

A lonely night is always hard to bear alone, let alone a big vigil.

In the first half of the night, Mengyuan was still able to hold on, but after the tea was served in the second half of the night, she started to feel sleepy!The big eyes are dazed and staring, and the figure is valued.

Cheng Qiang couldn't bear to see it anymore, and said: "Girl, it's late at night and you have done all the things you should do. Look at you, your eyelids are already fighting. You'd better go back to your room and rest. The rest The old slave will do the job!"

Mengyuan really couldn't hold it anymore, just like what Cheng Qiang said, she did what she had to do, and the rest was to pack things up, and there would be nothing wrong with leaving these things to Cheng Qiang !

"Cheng Bo, you can deal with the rest of the matter, I really can't hold it anymore!"

"Girl, you can go to rest, don't you worry about the old slave's work?"

Everyone went back to sleep, and she and Cheng Qiang were the only two who were watching the night here, Liu Tian was watching over the seriously ill Mengxiong at the moment, so there was no need to worry about anything happening!Mengyuan is a little lucky to have brought those people from the fishing village back home, otherwise, if Granny Hua had to do so many things by herself, she would be driven crazy without being exhausted.

As soon as she got back to her big bed, Meng Yuan could be said to have fallen asleep, so she couldn't care about other things!

Meng’s old house, because Mengyue and his wife couldn’t find anyone for two consecutive days, Meng Luo couldn’t eat for a day, and now the eldest son’s family can’t come to worship ancestors with the old house, but the old man just left. How long, I can't even do the superficial kung fu.

"Mother, it's late at night, you should go back to the house and rest, there is a son watching over here! I heard that my elder brother didn't come over to offer incense to my father because he was sick. The old doctor in the village can testify to this. And the old doctor said that my brother is still not seriously ill, so I thought, maybe my sister-in-law didn't let me come over, that's fine, they built a new house by themselves and they can start their own business, so don't worry about it anymore Little thing!"

"Ah, bah, is he sick? It's not good when he got sick, but he got sick when he was young. It's clear that he doesn't pay attention to your father, and doesn't pay attention to the ancestors of our Meng family.

Also, your sister and brother-in-law have been together for two days, and you still can't find anyone, so nothing will happen, right? "
"Bah, bah, mother, when is it appropriate for you to say this?"

Meng Luo gave her youngest son Meng Da a look: "Mother, you are also in a hurry! You said, it has been two days, and in two days, Xi'er should return home. If your sister and brother-in-law can't be found by then , Xi'er can't be fooled!"

"Mom, of course I know about this, but the world is so big, how can I know where my sister and brother-in-law have gone? Even if I want to go out and find someone, I don't have the funds in my hand! Travel expenses, food and drink Yes, it costs money to go out and find people, how can it be as easy as you said?"

"It's not easy, it's not easy, why don't you find it? Don't forget, your niece is married to a wealthy family in Fucheng. What is this little money? When you find your sister and brother-in-law, you will be missing benefit?"

Perhaps Meng Da would have believed what Meng Luo said before, but as for now: "Whether people can find it is another matter. These are just talk on paper now. Even if people find it later, who will remember it!"

Meng Luo could hear Mengda's muttering clearly, and immediately shouted with a straight face: "Why, what do you mean, are you going to find your sister and brother-in-law? You don't want the money anymore, either?" Isn’t it? Well, if you don’t look for it, that’s fine, old lady, I’ll drag this old bone out to look for it tomorrow!”
