Shopkeeper Tian thought about the old butler's proposal, but he continued to refuse: "The old butler is thoughtful, but I'll forget it this time. I don't plan to drink too much with Lao Wang tonight."
The plan in his heart failed, and the old housekeeper was full of disappointment. He couldn't help but asked strangely: "What? You and Lao Wang have such a good relationship, it's okay to have a drink at night. Do you think it's inconvenient for me to go? In that case, I
Just let them prepare a banquet and I won’t show up."
Shopkeeper Tian didn't expect that the old butler was actually thinking wrongly. He quickly said: "How could it be possible? If you go, old butler, we won't be able to welcome you. Why would you find it inconvenient? It's just that I don't plan to drink much tonight."
, if you come, it would be okay for the three of us to have a drink."
This time the old butler was even more surprised, "Isn't this what you like, Lao Tian? Why is there anything special tonight that you only plan to have a few drinks?" What he was thinking in his mind was, just drink a few drinks, and with your
I can't drink enough to knock you down.
Shopkeeper Tian saw that the old butler was asking so thoroughly, so he simply stopped and explained his decision to him.
"It's not because of anything else, it's mainly because of the errand my boss gave me just now. My boss is not going to meet Gong Jian tomorrow, but I know that boy has been running to the county school early these past few days.
Copy the test papers from previous years.
If I drink tonight, I will definitely not be able to get up tomorrow morning. I have to go to Gong Jian’s house to inform him about this before he goes out, so I will have to get up early tomorrow. I can’t drink too much tonight.
."
After hearing his explanation, the old housekeeper agreed dully: "Oh, oh, that's good, then you guys have a good drink tonight, then I'll leave first."
After saying this, without waiting for Shopkeeper Tian's reply, the old housekeeper just walked towards his courtyard with a slow and heavy step, somewhat decadently.
Shopkeeper Tian looked at the back of the old butler as he left. He was a little surprised. Did he say something? Why did the old butler's reaction suddenly become so disappointed?
What he didn't know was that the old housekeeper had already secretly made a plan. He had also sent a boy to follow Gong Jian in the past few days. He knew that the boy was studying hard every day and would go to school early.
Go to the county school to copy the test papers from previous years.
That's why he tried his best to stop Shopkeeper Tian just now, and went to Gong Jian's house tonight to inform him of the meeting. If he went to Gong Jian's house in the evening, he would definitely be able to meet the young man Gong Jian. But if tomorrow morning
, when Shopkeeper Tian goes to Gong Jian’s house to inform him of this matter, there is a high chance that he will not meet Gong Jian.
That's why he tried his best to postpone the notification until tomorrow morning. He also wanted to entertain Mr. Tian and Blacksmith Wang for a good drink together. He couldn't get Mr. Tian drunk, and he also had to delay his getting up early tomorrow.
Time prevented these two people from meeting each other.
But despite all his calculations, he never expected that Shopkeeper Tian would be so concerned about this matter. He already knew Gong Jian's whereabouts early. He even turned down tonight's banquet because of what happened tomorrow morning.
.The plan completely failed. How could the old housekeeper not be disappointed?
Shopkeeper Tian looked strangely at the old housekeeper's courtyard again, but he still didn't understand the key to it. When he thought that his old boss would be able to meet Gong Jian tomorrow, Shopkeeper Tian felt excited again.
He had to get up early tomorrow to remind Gong Jian to prepare well. At the very least, he wanted to make this first meeting leave a good impression on his old club.
In fact, if it weren't for Blacksmith Wang's other affairs, Shopkeeper Tian would definitely go to Gong Jian's house to inform him of the matter right now. He is still a little worried about whether Gong Jian will have enough time to prepare for the announcement tomorrow morning.
But soon, Shopkeeper Tian thought about this matter clearly. Not only did he not say that Gong Jian would not cheat, but he said that in order to reassure his old club, he should also let his old club know Gong Jian’s true appearance.
Shopkeeper Tian still has confidence in this young man. He believes that after meeting Gong Jian, his old boss will not have any objection to this young man even if he does not think of marrying Miss Tian to him. This can be regarded as Tian's
Shopkeeper, have great faith in Gong Jian.
On this side, the old butler returned to his room in disgrace. After sending away the boys who came to serve him, the old butler walked around the room depressedly.
As he walked irritably, he thought about how he could stop Shopkeeper Tian from reporting to Gong Jian. But he soon realized that if he stopped Shopkeeper Tian from going to Gong Jian's house, his boss would immediately realize that he
The tricks involved in this.
The old housekeeper also understood that no matter what reasons he had and it was for the sake of his own lady, he did not carry out his boss's order. He would also leave a heavy mark on his boss's heart. This was not what he wanted to see.
things to come.
Then he can't stop Shopkeeper Tian from informing Gong Jian about the meeting tomorrow. Then can he stop Gong Jian from coming to see his boss?
The old housekeeper wanted to send someone to find some way to prevent the young man from entering the farm when Gong Jian was on his way to the farm to meet his employer.
However, Gong Jian is indeed the savior of Miss and Song Ma. It is impossible for the old housekeeper to do anything harmful to God. After all, he also knows in his heart that when it comes down to it, he should be grateful to Gong Jian for saving his life.
.
Moreover, the old housekeeper just didn't want to give Gong Jian a chance to meet his employer and further feed his employer some ecstasy, thereby achieving his goal of marrying the young lady.
But he couldn't really do any harm to this young man. Just because he had saved the young lady, the old housekeeper couldn't do anything to Gong Jian.
The old housekeeper is now scratching his head and trying to think of a way, no matter whether it is light or heavy. There are two villains in his heart, who are constantly arguing and in a dilemma. Don't talk about how many of them he has left at this time.
He had a beard, and even his gray hair had many roots pulled out by him.
While the old housekeeper was still tormenting himself in the room, the servant's voice suddenly came from outside the house: "Old housekeeper, there is an urgent report."
The old housekeeper, who was still circling in the room, immediately stood up when he heard the boy's voice, hurriedly arranged his hair with both hands, and hurriedly walked out of the room. As soon as he went out, he
I saw a young man outside the house, bending down and standing there respectfully, holding a letter in both hands. (To be continued)
