Chapter 70

"Yo, shopkeeper Li, you haven't come for a while."

"I've been busy recently, and I went to Zhoucheng to look at the fabric samples, and I haven't been free."

"Your business is getting better and better, how about today?"

"It must be on time. Give me some of the new tonkatsu."

"Come on, sit down for a while."

In the lobby of the Huanxi Inn, Wang Qi and Lu Tang greeted the guests as soon as they arrived.Hong Mingzhao was watching the scene in the front hall from behind the counter. To be precise, he should be observing Lu Tangyi, who was still nodding his head from time to time.

"Bill, please."

"Okay."

When a customer came to pay the bill, he hurriedly put together the dishes. As soon as Lu Tang walked over to have a look: "Brother, why don't I come?"

Although Hong Mingzhao was the young owner of Huanxi Inn, he only read and practiced calligraphy since he was a child, and Mrs. Hong didn't let him participate in business, so it was his first time to learn these things, so he was inevitably unfamiliar.

"No need, I'll come."

Hong Xi'er came out from the back kitchen, looked at the scene in front of her, and wondered where her elder brother would have done these things in the past.

"I'm looking for your twelve cents, please keep it."

It's a bit slow, but fortunately, the number is good. If you practice more in the future, you will be able to get started quickly.

"Both of you should hurry up and leave me alone." Hong Mingzhao saw the two of them surrounded him, and shouted: "Although I came to help, I don't need two supervisors, wouldn't the more I help, the busier I will be. "

After laughing, Hong Xier hesitated for a while and said: "Brother, otherwise you can study at home, or we can set up a school?"

Of course, Hong Mingzhao knew what she was thinking, and waved his hands when he heard the words: "I remember that there is a scholar who teaches in the town, right? Wouldn't it be nice to run a school with your elder brother's talents and my talents? It's not good." After talking about it, Hong Mingzhao quickly stopped talking: "My ready-made business is short of manpower, so I will naturally come to help. Besides, how can I stay at home and let you support me, a handsome seven-foot man?"

Hearing what he said, Hong Xi'er didn't say much anymore, looking at her elder brother's current appearance, she was gradually relieved, and her uncle and father had spirits in heaven, so they should feel at ease.

As Lu Tang watched from the sidelines, she didn't think there was anything wrong with doing business. You must know that successful businessmen were very respected in her era.But it was different in ancient times, with scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen at the end. In this highly hierarchical society, Hong Mingzhao's ability to do so is still very admirable.

She looked at Hong Mingzhao, but she didn't know that the other party was also staring at her for several days. After the family banquet that day, he listened to his wife Yang's words and thought about it in his heart. It goes without saying that his younger sister only learned how to look. , although she has passed the age of leaving the court and retired, ordinary people may have to care about entanglements, but if you meet a gentleman who is supernatural and free and easy, and who really loves Sanniang, it is not impossible to achieve a happy relationship.Thinking of this, he felt more and more that Lu Tangyi was such a god-given gentleman, so although he was busy in the front hall these days, he observed Lu Tang from time to time, and found that there seemed to be nothing to be picky about the other party, whether it was his manners or reputation. , Brother Hong became more and more satisfied.

Now it's just a matter of confirming whether Sanniang and Tangyi are affectionate and willing. It's not easy to do it by yourself, so I have to ask my wife for help.

The person involved naturally didn't know what his idea was, and since the family banquet that day, Lu Tang felt more fond of Hong Xi'er in his heart. He can only show more concern for her in some trivial matters.

For example, right now, Hong Xier was about to deliver two jars of wine to the guests at the front table. As soon as Lu Tang put down the rag, he rushed over to take the wine jar from her hand, "I'll do it."

After walking two steps, he added another sentence: "It's hot, you should do less of these tasks in the future, and go to rest."

Hong Xi'er was a little confused. She used to do things that she used to do recently, and she immediately stopped them when she saw them. If she didn't know, she thought something was wrong with her. Yesterday, Lingchu came to ask if she was sick and was hiding it from her. Everyone.

In fact, it’s no wonder shopkeeper Hong can’t understand. Xiao Lu’s classmate has lived for more than 20 years and has never been in a relationship, let alone a girl or a boy. I don't know how to express it.So Lu Tang followed the tenet handed down by some old ancestor: to love her is to treat her well, and he began to treat Hong Xier with all his heart and soul.

Hong Sanniang didn't understand on this side, but Brother Hong was satisfied and more determined, no, I'll go back after closing today and let my wife come to Sanniang to ask for clarification. My sister wasted her youth so much.

He had a good plan on his side, but he couldn't stand the vagaries of the world. As soon as the time turned to the afternoon, a person ushered in at the Huanxi Inn.

After entering the door, this person did not sit down in the hall, but looked around and finally walked towards Hong Mingzhao.

"I wonder if this is the eldest son of the Hong family?"

Hong Mingzhao looked at him, he didn't remember such an acquaintance, but he saw that he was dressed as a literati in a long gown and a square scarf, his clothes were simple but clean and tidy, and he thought he was a scholar, so he replied: "I am, I don't know who you are? "

"My servant, Feng Shaohuai, will set up a school to teach in the town."

As soon as Hong Mingzhao heard it, it turned out that this was Feng Xiucai who taught in the town.

"It turns out that you are a scholar. I don't know what you can do in this shop?"

Feng Shaohuai was silent for a while when he asked this question, Hong Mingzhao saw that he was holding a gift but hesitantly looked like he thought that he had encountered some difficulties and wanted to ask them for help, but he didn't know what his inn could do for a scholar?

"Young Master Feng?"

Inquiring and calling for someone, Feng Shaohuai took a deep breath and put the gift in his hand on the counter, "Brother Hong, please forgive me for being abrupt, I, I just want to propose marriage to Sanniang if you agree. "

ah?Hong Mingzhao was stunned on the spot. He hadn't heard anything about Sanniang and this scholar. Why did they propose marriage?

"Mr. Feng?"

The movement at the counter had already attracted the attention of the people there. As soon as Lu Tang came forward, he looked at Feng Shaohuai's determined and anxious face, and then looked at the gifts on the table, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"What are you doing here?"

Feng Shaohuai looked back and saw that it was Lu Tangyi, and frowned: "It turned out to be Mr. Lu." After greeting the same person, he bowed to Hong Mingzhao again: "Brother Hong, to tell you the truth, I have been in love with Sanniang for a long time, but I know my family background The poor are not good enough for her. Now I heard that the Fang family in Anzhou came to make trouble again, and threatened to rape Sanniang. I know that his family has some background and might not be able to do it, so I thought of coming to the door today. Being betrothed to me can not only break Fang Sibin's mind, but also give Sanniang a home. Brother Hong, I treat her sincerely."

Feng Shaohuai's voice was not low, there were still some customers in the store at this time, and they all looked this way.

"This..." Hong Mingzhao froze at that moment and didn't know what to say. He first looked at Feng Shaohuai.Lu Tangyi, who was looking at him beside him, had the same extraordinary talent and appearance, and he knew the basics and was kind-hearted.

Hiss... If you don't want to come, come as soon as you come, Hong Mingzhao also encountered difficulties for a while, and now he only hates his wife, Yang Shi, for not being by his side. How can a man make up his mind about such a thing?

"Thanks to Mr. Feng's kindness, but this is my younger sister's marriage after all, I still need to ask her opinion before making a decision."

Feng Shaohuai lowered his head and thought silently, then raised his head as if he had made up his mind: "Brother Hong, I wonder if it is possible to invite San Niang out, I think, excuse me, I want to talk to her face to face."

"Then..." Hong Mingzhao was hesitating whether he should let this person see Sanniang, when he saw the curtain of the backyard was raised, and Hong Xier and Yang walked out from inside hand in hand.

It turned out that Wang Qi guessed that something was wrong when he saw Feng Shaohuai coming, so he hurried out through the back door to find Hong Xi'er who was talking to Mrs. Yang in the old house.

"Sanniang."

Seeing her coming, Feng Shaohuai's eyes lit up, and he murmured her name, and he couldn't move his eyes away.As Lu Tang watched from the side, he couldn't help but secretly frowned. In fact, Mr. Feng was considered a good person, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but why did she want to beat him up so much.

"Mr. Feng, what's the matter here?"

Wang Qi didn't hear the second half, so naturally they didn't know that Feng Shaohuai was here to propose marriage.Among the guests, there are those who are familiar with him and those who like to tease, drink some wine and continue: "Sanniang, Mr. Feng has come to propose marriage, congratulations!"

Hong Xi'er was surprised when she heard this, it was indeed beyond her expectation, and Yang Shi who was beside her was also surprised when she heard that, she couldn't help but look at the person in front of her.

"Sanniang, I've heard about it. I know your embarrassment. I mustered up the courage to come here today. If you are willing..." Feng Shaohuai took a step forward and stood opposite Hong Xier.

As soon as Lu Tang watched the scene in front of her, she heard Feng Shaohuai's earnest words, she could tell that he should treat her sincerely, but it was this sincerity that made her feel even more suffocated and uncomfortable.

After he finished speaking, almost subconsciously, Hong Xier glanced at Lu Tang.It was just this glance, where the eyes of each other met, there was more meaning that could not be explained clearly.

Seeing that she was silent, Feng Shaohuai paused and tentatively said, "If you haven't made up your mind yet, I can wait for you. It's just that I heard that Fang's family had come to make trouble a few days ago, so I wondered if we could get engaged first. If we Even if you have a marriage contract, you are not afraid of him making trouble again."

After listening to his words, Lu Tang gradually clenched his hand hanging by his side into a fist, glared fiercely at Feng Shaohuai, and then looked at Hong Xi'er again.He was right, being able to come to propose marriage at this time is enough to show his sincerity, and he can really touch the hearts of Hong's brother and sister-in-law, but Xi'er...

Leaving Feng Shaohuai to meet her gaze, Hong Xi'er had never seen Lu Tangyi's eyes like this before, and she could see her forbearance. If her feeling was right, why didn't she say anything?

Hong Xi'er did not answer Feng Shaohuai's words, but fixedly looked at Lu Tangyi behind her. Feng Shaohuai waited for a while, then slowly turned back following her gaze, even if he didn't want to believe or know, when he looked at Lu Tang behind him For a moment, he only felt that the glimmer of hope in his heart was in vain.

"She won't marry you."

After a long period of patience, the emotion finally burst at this moment. Lu Tang stepped forward and pulled Hong Xier's arm to block him behind him, and looked directly at Feng Shaohuai in front of him: "I won't let Fang Sibin move her a little bit, Also, I won't let anyone take advantage of the fire and force her to do something against her will at this juncture."

"How do you know, she doesn't want to!" The heartache and anger that was brewing at this moment burst in his heart. After waiting for so many years, he didn't hear her answer in person, and he still didn't want to just be so vague, "You kept saying to protect her , but what have you done for her? To give Fang that fellow a chance to bully her, this is what you call protection!"

Feng Shaohuai's eyes were red and pressed tightly, Lu Tang's eyes flickered, and he let go of Hong Xi'er's hand.

"If you are afraid of the power of the Fang family, why bother to obstruct it? I can protect her from the wind and rain and take this risk for her, how dare you!"

The huge inn was completely silent at this time, and everyone held their breath, watching the aggressive posture of the usually gentle Mr. Feng, and waiting for Lu accountant's next words.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Yu Han, who heard the news, wanted to go up and break Lu Tangyi's mouth, but at this moment, he could only stamp his feet and whisper urgently: "Say it quickly!"

Wang Qi glanced at Yu Lingchu, and the two exchanged glances, sighed in their hearts, and were speechless.

Hong Mingzhao and his wife didn't say a word, they all stared at Lu Tangyi closely, so many people were waiting for her reply, if she really couldn't rely on Sanniang, this Mr. Feng would be a good candidate.

As soon as Lu Tang let go of her wrist, Hong Xi'er's heart sank gradually, but in the warm afternoon, her whole body felt as if she was in a cold day, and she felt completely chilled in an instant.

After a long silence, she sighed softly, ready to answer Feng Shaohuai's words, anyway, this was her own business, not to mention that she seemed to know Lu Tangyi's answer.

Just when she gave up waiting to answer Feng Shaohuai, Lu Tangyi in front of her suddenly raised her head, and immediately said the words that are still talked about by the fathers and villagers of Huanxi Town after many years.

"I dare. From now on, Hong Xi'er will be protected by me."
