The old lady's tone was casual, as if she was just asking casually.
Chu Yunli watched Lianyun Tower getting further and further away. He didn't want to lie to her, so he said calmly, "Yes!"
"Nian'er, it's not really that person. He has a leg problem... This is wronging you." The old lady was worried.
Chu Yunli smiled, "What if his leg is cured?"
The old lady's eyes lit up. If she was cured, it would not be the Jiang family's turn to get married. Then she became worried again, "Is he sincere to you?"
"The red suit just now is cheaper than the purple one." Chu Yunli asked patiently, "What do you think?"
The red dress was much more exquisite in terms of material and embroidery work, and it also came with jewelry... The old lady thought of the unusual attitude of the maid who served them, and insisted that they buy the red dress. She frowned, relaxed, and shook her head.
He smiled and said, "I'm old."
At least it doesn't conflict anymore.
Three days later, the front door of Lian's house was extremely lively.
With the Lian family's status in Tongcheng, businessmen in Tongcheng would try their best to get invitations and come to congratulate them in person. Only after meeting them would it be possible to do business together.
It was still early when Chu Yunli and his family arrived. After getting off the carriage, someone immediately came to greet them. Before they could get closer, the person waiting beside them took a step forward and said, "Master Jiang, please follow me in."
"
So, when the person who was originally planning to step forward saw this, he turned around and went to pick up someone else.
After entering the door, the three members of the Jiang family separated. A mother-in-law came over to lead the way, and talked about the scenery along the way. The old lady looked at it with a smile, feeling happy.
When we arrived at the garden where the female guest was, the mother-in-law did not leave, but retreated to the back, not far or near.
Even though there were many ladies and old ladies around who she didn't know, it didn't affect her good mood. Standing in front of a cluster of flowers, she leaned over to smell them and whispered, "That old woman has been following us. For such a wealthy family, the people who receive guests and
The servants who entertain the guests are not a bunch of people...Nian'er, this young master of the Lian family probably really has some interest in you, but I don't know how long it will last. Also, if his leg can't be cured, you can
...Actually, my original intention was not to agree. Look at the guests in this garden, and how many rooms the Lian family has been divided into. I don’t know how to fight for such a big family property in private, and I feel tired just thinking about it.”
Those who didn't know, just thought she was smelling the fragrance of flowers, and there was even a slight smile on her lips.
Chu Yunli supported her, "Don't worry. Dad said I won't get married until I turn 18."
The old lady sneered, "No! What if your marriage is delayed and you can't find a satisfactory candidate? Then you can't even beat him."
A little girl came over to the mother-in-law and whispered a few words. Then, the mother-in-law came forward with a smile and said, "The weather is hot. Madam, please go with your slave to the pavilion over there to rest for a while."
The old lady smiled gently and said, "Thank you."
"I dare not take it." The mother-in-law smiled brightly, "The old lady is lucky at first sight. It is my blessing that I can serve you."
The old woman's mouth was full of praises, and she led them through the crowd and went deep into the garden. There was already an older woman in the pavilion. She was someone she hadn't seen for many years. It was said that she had just returned from overseas.
When the two met, they began to reminisce about old times. The more they talked, the more they became more and more congenial. They even sent Chu Yunli out, and with her came the young girl brought by the old lady.
The two were driven out and looked at each other, both feeling helpless. The girl smiled gently and said, "My surname is Liu and my name is Qing'er. My grandmother was just brought back by my mother. She was probably too happy to see her old friend.
She paused and suggested, "It's boring to have nothing to do. There are clusters of chrysanthemums over there, all kinds of flowers. I'll take you to see them." After saying that, she took the lead and walked ahead.
A quarter of an hour later, I saw chrysanthemums.
The chrysanthemums were on the edge of the rockery. As soon as Chu Yunli turned around, Liu Jing'er disappeared. Instead, a person sitting on a chair came out of the rockery and said, "Miss Jiang, what a coincidence."
Chu Yunli twitched the corner of her mouth. She was afraid that everything from going to the pavilion to the old lady meeting her old friend and then to Liu Jing'er bringing her here was all arranged by the person in front of her. He could still say such clever words without changing his face, and he was also shameless.
It's quite thick.
"What a coincidence!" Chu Yunli said with a smile without exposing him, "Thank you for the post."
Lian Shaoan looked at the bright and unhindered smile on her face, and the hands on her knees were held tighter and tighter, and he deeply hated his own legs.
When they first met at the teahouse, she said, "He's so good-looking," with a pleasant tone, as if the person she was praising was a flawless and handsome young man, not a man with missing legs.
Based on the fact that the two of them didn't get along much these days, he could tell that this girl really didn't care... But if she didn't care, could he be calm?
Besides, she didn't care about the leg problem. Maybe she just thought he was a passerby with whom he had no acquaintance and praised him casually. If she cared about him, could she say such relaxed words?
Lian Shaoan felt uneasy.
Yes, uneasy!
He has always been a confident person. Even if his legs never get better, it will not affect his brain. No one in the family dares to underestimate him.
With his status as the eldest young master of the Lian family, there were many girls willing to marry him, but he didn't want any of them. The girl in front of him... The first time they met, his heart beat violently. For the first time in his life, he wanted to marry her.
Thoughts of getting a wife.
Yesterday, a famous doctor from the capital said that it would be difficult for him to stand up in his life, and he was not disappointed. This means that he and her may not be able to stay together, because with such a beautiful smile, she is cared for by the best person in the world, and she deserves better.
of!
No matter how much I thought about it, when I saw her now, my unwillingness surged up again. At the same time, I felt a bit of ambition in my heart. What if she didn't care?
Because he was too nervous, the look on his face was a bit unnatural, "You're welcome, actually..."
He seemed to have something hard to say. Chu Yunli smiled slightly and said, "Young Master Lian, just tell me what you have to say."
"My leg disease is very serious." Even Shaoan himself did not expect this to be his first sentence, but after he said it, the next words came easily, "I have seen doctors from several nearby cities. Yesterday, the doctor in the capital
The doctors next to me also looked at it and said that I might not be able to stand up."
"Oh?" Chu Yunli took two steps forward and reached out to hold his wrist.
White fingers touched her wrist. Lian Shaoan originally wanted to hide, but looking at her familiar movements, he felt inexplicably harmonious. It seemed that it was normal for her to feel her pulse. Some memory fragments flashed through her mind, strange and familiar at the same time.
God, the girl in front of him has squatted down and pinched his leg, "Do you feel it?"
She doesn't care!
Lian Shaoan shook his head, the corners of his lips were already curved, and his eyes lit up in an instant as if they were filled with starlight.
This injury is a bit tricky, mainly because it has been delayed for too long. Fortunately, it has been well maintained and the muscles have not atrophied. Chu Yunli touched her chin and thought in her mind, "I have to take my time."
Lian Shaoan was so filled with joy that he didn't even pay attention to what she said, "You don't care about my leg disease? Are you praising me for my good looks because you like me?"
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows, "You can think whatever you want."
If you ask Lian Shaoan what he thinks, of course she is attracted to him and thinks about it day and night, and she will not marry you unless she is married to you.
His eyes became gentler.
Just at this time, some servants came to invite guests to watch the ceremony. After the ceremony was over, the banquet was held, and you could go back after eating.
There were many guests at Lian's house, which made it very noisy. After a long day of turmoil, Chu Yunli was lying in bed still thinking about dispensing medicine.
The next morning, the genius was bright, and Taozhi knocked on the door again, "Girl, someone from the Feng family is here, saying that something happened to Madam."
Exactly the same as last time.
Chu Yunli opened her eyes, washed up and took a carriage to Feng's house. What was different from the last time was that Feng was already there, crying hard.
Zhou opened the door and saw Chu Yunli, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Nianyu, come in quickly, your mother has been crying here for half the night."
When Mrs. Feng saw her daughter, she cried even more sadly.
Chu Yunli: "..." Is this a grievance?
"What's the reason again?" Chu Yunli walked over and sat down opposite Feng Shi, "They say people walk to higher places, in other words, to make their lives better and better. What's the point of you crying every day and struggling to remarry?
for what?"
Mrs. Feng sobbed, "It's none of your business!"
Chu Yunli snorted softly, "Then don't come looking for me!"
Mrs. Feng glared at her, "Your aunt came here to find you, and I didn't want to find you." When she got angry, she stopped crying.
Chu Yunli exposed her mercilessly, "If you really don't want me to come, just say hello to the Feng family in advance and don't let anyone find me. I came so far early in the morning to make you dislike me. If you are angry, I
Still angry."
She put down the teacup in her hand, got up and left.
Feng Shi was reluctant, "As expected, you look down on me, who are you throwing a cup at?"
When she wanted to leave, Mrs. Zhou stood at the door and said to Mrs. Feng, "Don't make a fuss, don't get angry with your daughter about things outside. If you discuss everything carefully, there will be nothing you can't get through." Then he looked at Chu Yunli and advised,
"Your mother is in big trouble. Don't argue with her. It's more important to resolve the matter."
Chu Yunli was more curious, "What is it for this time?"
Mentioning this, Mrs. Zhou was also angry, "It's not your father Yu. He went to drink, but he didn't have any money to pay the bill. They didn't ask for it at the time. I thought the matter was over. Who knew that a month later, they suddenly found me?
The thugs came to ask for debts, and the account was doubled dozens of times, including eight taels of silver. Your father, Yu, and the others had forgotten what they had eaten. Maybe there was something wrong with the account, and they were clearly trying to blackmail people..."
Blackmail?
Then why didn't you blackmail anyone else?
It was all them. Who knows how many people ate together at that time?
Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly, "Mom, didn't you say you wanted to persuade him?"
Feng didn't hesitate and scolded, "This is to persuade him to get into trouble before. I didn't know that he had debts outside. Otherwise, he would have paid it off long ago. How could he not be able to pay it back?"
She is very powerful towards her daughter.
Feng was pitiful for such a person in the stall. Chu Yunli didn't argue with her, "Even if this is the case, why are you looking for me?"
There was silence in the yard. Mrs. Zhou forced a smile and said, "Your mother helped your father pay off some debts a few days ago. She really has no money, so she wants to borrow it from our family. But your two cousins are discussing marriage recently.
, because we can't agree on the betrothal gift. After all, we still have no money. My children's marriage is a lifetime event. I have saved this money for decades, how can I use it? I'm looking for you..." She looked at Feng
Shi said, "Sister, you can speak for yourself."
Feng was silent.
As she remained silent, Mrs. Zhou became more and more anxious. Do those people know the relationship between Fengjia Restaurant and Yu Zhiyuan? If they don't have money, they will definitely come and cause trouble, and then the business will not be done.
After a long time, Mrs. Feng finally said, "Nianyu, please lend me some money."
"No!" Chu Yunli was very single and said the two words clearly and neatly.
