After He Yunlan paid the money, he said to Bai Banxia: "Miss Bai, do you know if you are free? It is fate that we meet by chance. I would like to invite you to have a cup of tea and sit for a while."
Bai Banxia turned to look at Qi Zhen, who was waiting at the door. Qi Zhen understood and said, "I'll go back to the stall and wait for you."
"good."
It is really not appropriate for a female guest to have tea with a man by her side.
After Qi Zhen left, Bai Banxia smiled at He Yunlan, "Then I won't be polite to Miss He."
She felt that what He Yunlan wanted to say to her must be related to Brother Erlang, so she did not refuse.
"We are all of the same age, so just call me Yunlan. Don't call me so arrogant," He Yunlan said.
Bai Banxia responded readily, "My name is Bai Banxia, just call me by my name."
"Okay, Banxia." He Yunlan responded with a smile, admiring her lack of coquettishness.
When Boss Cheng saw that the two of them knew each other, he sent them off with a smile.
He Yunlan led the way and went to a teahouse not far away. She chose a private room on the second floor and ordered a pot of tea and four-color dim sum.
The maid was very discerning and went to guard the door. He Yunlan poured tea for Bai Banxia and said, "Has Banxia made a marriage arrangement?"
Bai Banxia shook her head, "Not yet, and I'm not in a hurry."
He Yunlan smiled and said, "I think so too."
Bai Banxia is eighteen years old and is considered a leftover girl in Baoshan Village. He Yunlan is about the same age as her and has not yet engaged, so she is relatively late.
"My family is a businessman, and I have a bad temper and refuse to admit defeat. I learned some business skills from my parents, but I just want to make some achievements on my own. I don't want to marry so early to raise a husband and raise children." He Yunlan continued.
You must know that at this time, the education that women received from childhood was to marry a good family, husband and raise children. He Yunlan could say this, her thinking was already very advanced, and she was an independent woman in modern times.
Bai Banxia nodded, "Yes, we have our own careers, why should we sacrifice ourselves for getting married?"
"We want to get together." He Yunlan looked at her with bright eyes, "My mother mentioned this to my aunt before, and she joked that it would be better for me to kiss Chu Yuan, and the Chu family wouldn't stop it.
I continue to do business and I can do what I love."
He Yunlan shook his head, "I didn't expect that boy Chu Yuan heard it. He was a bit stubborn, so he actually took it seriously. Later, he shouted that he wanted to marry me every day."
"Marriage between close relatives is not good for future generations." Bai Banxia couldn't help but say.
"I've also heard that marriages between close relatives are not encouraged in Beijing. Besides, Chu Yuan and I are siblings. There is really no relationship between men and women. It would be very awkward to be together." He Yunlan's voice was a little lower, "Besides, I like the one I like.
There is someone else."
Come on, come on, Bai Banxia dares to bet a pancake fruit, He Yunlan must like Brother Erlang.
If he didn't like her brother Erlang, why did he talk to her? Is it because she is pretty? Bai Banxia is not so ignorant of herself.
"Banxia, you are smart, you should have guessed it." He Yunlan blushed and said, "I am very pleased with you, Brother Erlang."
Bai Banxia couldn't help but admire him. He Yunlan looked petite, but his courage was not inferior to that of a man.
If you like it, you just like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it, no hesitation or hesitation.
"Brother Erlang will blush when he mentions you." The other party was so straightforward that Bai Banxia couldn't help but reveal more to her.
"What did he say?" He Yunlan asked excitedly.
After all, it was the youngest daughter's house. Whenever she mentioned her beloved, her face turned red with embarrassment, and she lost her previous poise and composure.
Bai Banxia paused for a moment before speaking out, "He just muttered that it was impossible. I think he considered that the gap between family backgrounds was too big."
These words woke He Yunlan up in an instant. The blush on her face faded and she looked very depressed.
Bai Banxia felt a little unbearable, secretly blaming herself for speaking too directly, but she thought that He Yunlan was a person who could take these things into consideration. This was the most fundamental problem that could not be avoided.
"So he started avoiding me." She sighed, raised her cup and took a sip of tea. When she put the cup down again, she had regained her composure.
"Forget it, let's not mention this. Life is not just about love and love." She shook her head and said cheerfully.
Now Bai Banxia really admired her, such a cheerful woman was worth befriending.
"That's good, isn't it good to make money?" she said with a smile.
He Yunlan pushed some snacks to her, "Don't just drink tea, also have some snacks. I think your hair design is quite good and you have a business acumen. Maybe we can work together in the future."
"Chu Yuan also said he wanted to cooperate with me. In comparison, I want to cooperate with you, Yun Lan." Bai Banxia smiled and explained Chu Yuan's actions today.
"Then it's really possible for him to make you people in the village forgive him. Although Chu Yuan likes to fool around, he is really persistent in what he decides to do. When we were young, we went for an outing once, and he said that he should walk home by himself instead of taking a carriage, but he accidentally made a mistake on the way.
I fell down and my legs were swollen, so I had to grit my teeth and walk home." He Yunlan said with a smile.
"If he can do it, I will definitely do what he says."
The two chatted for a while, and Bai Banxia learned that the He family's business was huge and involved many fields.
He Yunlan's mother is the biological sister of Chu Yuanniang. The old man of the Chu family only had two daughters. He loved his wife very much and refused to take concubines to have children. Finally, he asked his eldest daughter Chu Yuniang to recruit a son-in-law and take over the family business. His second daughter Chu
Rong Niang married into the He family, a wealthy businessman.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Bai Banxia asked to say goodbye and leave. He Yunlan went downstairs with her.
"Have you heard? There is a big change in the capital. The emperor's brother has rebelled!" Someone at a table in the corner said to his companion.
"Really? Isn't that a change of dynasty?" asked a middle-aged man at the table.
"It's just a change of dynasty, just a change of emperor. I heard that many people died in the capital, the emperor was imprisoned, and several princes also died."
"Good fellow, the mountains are really high and the emperor is far away. It would be so dangerous if we were in Beijing."
"Isn't it? Fortunately, whoever becomes the emperor has nothing to do with us."
The conversation between the two fell into the ears of Bai Banxia and He Yunlan word for word. He Yunlan was thoughtful and thought that the change in the DPRK might affect some of the He family's business.
"Ban Xia, I have something to do at home, so I'll take my leave first." She blessed her and made a womanly salute.
"Okay, I'm going back too." Bai Banxia returned the gift.
Looking at the back of He Yunlan leaving in a hurry, Bai Banxia thought about it. Fortunately, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so it can't affect the ordinary people.
"Why are you so dazed and still not leaving?" Qi Zhen's voice came from behind.
Bai Banxia turned around and looked at him in surprise, "You didn't go back to the stall first?"
"I've been near you for fear that you would be kidnapped." Qi Zhen's face was darkened again, and his words sounded a bit silly.
