MTL - Traveling Through Ancient Times To Be a Shopkeeper-Chapter 6 maintain
"That's right, a brother who doesn't look as tall as a brother. It doesn't matter if no one wants him, and he wants to marry to the county town."
"Oh, don't say that, they are all here to buy needles and threads, maybe they are making wedding dresses to marry."
"Who wants to marry someone!"
"Xiang'er, that's not necessarily the case. You have to marry someone. If you're widowed or lame, you can definitely marry someone."
"You still have a point, Qingqing."
Two strange words of yin and yang came over, and the three girls who walked towards Zhou Yuan and the others, with colorful skirts and powdered faces, had beautiful and pretty faces, and they were also slim girls, but the words they said were like village gossips, ugly and malicious.
The first ones were Zhou Qingqing and Zhou Xiang'er, and the two in the middle were holding arms. The one who didn't speak and looked soft and lovely was Zhou Xiuyun.
They are good-looking girls from Qinghe Village. They grew up being sought after by men in the village, and the men who chased after them would try their best to give them whatever they wanted, which made their vanity even more inflated, and they acted very arrogantly.
No matter who makes the parents look beautiful, the family members also pamper them and don't let them do much work. They only need to dress up and show off, and they are thoughtful. My daughter is beautiful, and she will definitely marry a wealthy family in the future.
They would target Zhou Yuan because they looked down on him. They beat up the education of their family members, compared him with him, and trampled him down in front of them. Moreover, there are good-looking guys in the village, and there are also men who are sought after by men in the village. They see that they are not balanced, and they don't like him even more.
"Zhou Xiang'er, Zhou Qingqing put away your stinky mouths, you can smell it from a long distance, you don't think it stinks, I do, so I'm ashamed to open my mouth, lest the stink spreads all over the street."
Zhou Qiu's speech is also **** off, and it is absolutely impolite to be angry, bullying Zhou Yuan in front of her, there is no way.
Zhou Xiang'er has a fiery temper, so how can she tolerate Zhou Qiu scolding her, pointing at Zhou Qiu, "Zhou Qiu, you are the one who stinks, and the most stinky mouth is your mouth."
Zhou Qingqing likes to put on a show, coaxing his words: "Zhou Qiu, things about Zhou Yuan are spread all over the village, but we didn't scold him. He made shame and ruined the reputation of the village. Is this all true?"
Zhou Qiu stood directly in front of the two of them, "Facts, what facts, I think you are jealous, jealous of Yuan Yuan's blind date with county people, you have never even been on the pagoda."
"you........."
Zhou Xianger and Zhou Qingqing blushed angrily, as if Zhou Qiu's words were expressing their deepest thoughts.
They were not jealous of Zhou Yuan, but resentment. Zhou Yuan was able to have a blind date with someone from the county, and they had never met them before. They were village girls, and they couldn't compare to an ugly brother who no one wanted. How could they not be resentful? , Just use the rumors in the village to step on it a few times to vent your anger.
"Qingqing, Xiang'er..." Zhou Xiuyun called softly, Zhou Xiang'er and Zhou Qingqing turned around, they had always flattered Zhou Xiuyun. angry.
Zhou Xiuyun's family is a wealthy family in the village, and her elder brother is a child. She even claims to be noble and looks down on others. She usually doesn't talk to them and lowers her status.
This time, I didn't know what it meant.
"Zhou Qiu, we are all girls, and we all know how to keep ourselves clean. Brother Zhou, no matter his family background or himself, will people in the county marry a brother casually? The blind date is your wish, but you have a high-minded mind to lick your face. Other people from other villages know that Qinghe Village is shameless, isn’t this discrediting Qinghe Village? Qingqing, Xiang’er spoke straight, but did not distort the facts.”
Zhou Xiuyun, she didn't even look at Zhou Yuan and Zhou Muzi, she only looked at Zhou Qiu, her expression was gentle, her words were very gentle, and what she said was well-founded.
Fortunately, there is an older brother who is a child, and he speaks clearly.
If you are ignorant, you will be taken aback by her, thinking she is very reasonable, but Zhou Qiu knows Zhou Xiuyun's face the most, she looks soft, and she has to behave like a lady, even saying a word You have to learn to breathe.
If Zhou Qiu hadn't seen how she treated her cousin with vicious words and used her cousin's family as servants, she would not have known what she was like. Fortunately, her cousin's family has finally been separated, so she doesn't have to work hard for her family.
"Xiuyun still has a way to stop you from talking." Zhou Xiang'er will be proud now, "If you want me to say, that Wei Cheng and Zhou Yuan have a blind date, and they don't know how to deal with each other when they go back."
"Are you talking about me?"
A male voice interjected.
Zhou Xiang'er and the others turned their backs to Wei Cheng, and they didn't know that Wei Cheng was approaching. Zhou Yuan and the others only noticed Wei Cheng's approach when they uttered their voices in Wei Cheng.
"Who are you?" Zhou Xianger said angrily without seeing clearly.
"In Xiawei City!"
Zhou Xiang'er who turned around was stunned?
This person is Wei Cheng?
Tall and tall, with handsome facial features, well-dressed, dignified and dignified.
This mayor of Weicheng turned out to be so good-looking, Zhou Qingqing and Zhou Xianger showed shyness, and they thought to themselves, if they can match up with Weicheng County... Both of them are making up their minds.
"I don't know why the girls were talking about Wei." Wei Cheng asked.
"We are in the same village as Zhou Yuan. My name is Qingqing. Zhou Yuan had a high-profile date with Young Master Wei before. It is right for Young Master Wei to look down on you." Zhou Qingqing didn't speak harshly, and looked at Wei Cheng in a gentle and shy tone.
Wei Cheng didn't look at her, and said in a serious tone, "Girl, you're wrong. The last time Brother Zhou had a blind date with me, it wasn't that I didn't like Brother Zhou, it was because Brother Zhou didn't like me."
When he said that, everyone was dumbfounded!
And this kind of thing.
Zhou Qingqing and the others didn't believe it.
Zhou Yuan couldn't believe that Wei Cheng would defend him, and he was self-deprecating. He wanted to say something, but Wei Cheng stopped him with a look. Let him watch, and he will deal with it.
"Young Master Wei, are you joking?" Zhou Xianger said.
"Am I joking?" Wei Cheng said with a straight face.
He was very angry when he heard what these girls said when he came back from shopping to find someone. He was not so angry even when his girlfriend cheated on him in his previous life. After all, it was just an ordinary relationship. But the person he cared about was pointed at and slandered, Wei Cheng felt distressed.
"Besides, women's gossip, everyone knows that talking about right and wrong is what gossips do. Wei doesn't know how many girls have the nature of gossips."
The three of them blushed in embarrassment and anger, Zhou Qingqing was so angry that she couldn't speak, Zhou Xianger pointed at Wei Cheng with a trembling hand: "You..."
When did Zhou Xiuyun get humiliated like this? She bit her lip, feeling very wronged, and looked at Wei Cheng with tears in her eyes, with a look of pity for me.
She doesn't like Wei Cheng, Wei Cheng is handsome, she can tell from her clothes that Wei Cheng is not a rich man, but she doesn't believe that with her beauty, Wei Cheng will not take a look when I see her pity.
Wei Cheng really didn't look at them, even looking at them out of the corner of the eye made him feel annoyed, the more people gathered to watch, Wei Cheng didn't entangle with them much, lest they falsely accuse him of bullying women.
Wei Cheng handed the things in his hand to Zhou Yuan, "Brother Zhou, this is for you."
Zhou Yuan was startled, this...is this for him?
"Brother Zhou, I apologize for being so abrupt just now with a small gift."
"No, I can't!"
"Take it."
Seeing that people don't want it, Wei Cheng wants to stuff it into his hands but can't do something that will hurt his reputation in public, "There are not many things, you take them."
Zhou Yuan still refused.
Everyone else was dumbfounded. Wei Cheng was carrying large and small bags in his hand. They were wrapped in oiled paper and couldn't be seen clearly. The box was packaged with a name on it, and it was packaged by a pastry shop. Although this shop is not as expensive as the ones in the county, In the suburbs, it's not like a countryman can buy a piece casually, let alone several large boxes.
There are so many, there are not hundreds of texts that can't be bought.
Zhou Xiang'er and Zhou Qingqing were resentful in their hearts, wishing that the things in Wei Cheng's hands were for them, their family lived well in the village, they were girls, and they also had a lot of pursuits for men, so they would buy some small gifts and snacks to please them, but no one did it all at once. Send so much.
Zhou Xiuyun didn't feel resentment, but she was also jealous in her heart, her expression was not obvious, but she still looked soft.
Her family is a wealthy family in the village, and she has never bought such a pastry once. After her brother became a child, she asked for money more frequently. envy.
Three people have different ideas.
Zhou Yuan's two friends were so surprised that their jaws dropped, and they felt happy for their good friends. With so many things, Zhou Xianger and Zhou Qingqing would definitely be **** off. If they went back to the village and saw why the villagers still said that Zhou Yuan was ashamed, Wei Cheng would say that it wasn't that Zhou Yuan looked down on him, or that Zhou Yuan was rejected.
Although they all knew that this was Wei Cheng's words of defense, at least they could restore Zhou Yuan's reputation in the village. Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi were happy.
Seeing that Zhou Yuan insisted on not wanting it, Wei Cheng thought about it, and passed the other single box to Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi, first to Zhou Yuan's friends, Zhou Yuan would definitely not be able to refuse.
You can please others without a teacher. To please your sweetheart, you must first please the people around your sweetheart.
Wei Cheng stuffed Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi with a box, "This is for you."
Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi subconsciously took over.
They also have?
Both of them were stunned. They looked at the box of pastries in their hands. They couldn't take them because they were so valuable. They were about to give them back to Wei Cheng, but Wei Cheng said to Zhou Yuan, "Brother Zhou, your friends have already taken them. You can't take them." Don’t take it, it’s specially bought for you.”
Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi knew each other very well, they silently took back the things they wanted to return, and understood what Wei Cheng meant, this was a pastry for bribing them, so they were not embarrassed to take it, instead they persuaded Brother Zhou instead.
Zhou Yuan insisted on refusing to take it. He couldn't take Wei Cheng's things. If it was a small bag, he wouldn't be able to shirk it. Wei Cheng bought too much, so how could he take it.
"If you don't take it, there will be more people around you. You push it in front of them, and you want to embarrass me by refusing me?" Wei Cheng simply threatened.
Looking around, Zhou Yuan saw that there were more people, and explained in a panic: "No, I didn't mean that."
Wei Cheng was trying to scare him, but he didn't want Brother Zhou to misunderstand him. Taking advantage of his flustered thoughts, Wei Cheng directly stuffed something into his hand, and the two of them would inevitably touch each other with their fingers.
As soon as he touched it, Zhou Yuan was even more flustered and at a loss. Wei Cheng was very satisfied when he touched his sweetheart's hand, um, the touch was very soft, but it was a pity that he only touched it once. It would be great if he could hold it tightly!
Wei Cheng looked at Brother Zhou who was blushing and at a loss, with a smile on his brows and eyes: "I'm fine, you go shopping."
Although he still wanted to stay, but because of Zhou Yuan's reputation, he had no choice but to leave.
The three of Zhou Qingqing didn't leave. Looking at the person they didn't like, each of them had food in their hands, feeling jealous and resentful in their hearts, and secretly scolded Wei Cheng whether he was blind.
So good to a brother.
"Hey, I haven't left yet, do you want to have a piece?" Zhou Qiu said proudly.
"It's not just a box of pastries, and it's not like I haven't eaten it before, who cares!"
The three women left angrily.
Wait for the three to go away.
Zhou Qiu excitedly said to Zhou Yuan: "Yuan Yuan, then Wei Cheng is definitely interested in you. He is handsome and gentle and considerate to you. You have to take good care of it."
Zhou Muzi was also happy for his friend, "Yuan Yuan, Wei Cheng really cares about you, he even gave us cakes to please you."
"That's right! For your sake, Muzi and I have a good time." Bai took a box of pastries home, and the family must be happy.
Zhou Yuan murmured, "Wei Cheng, he didn't mean that."
Yeah?
Looking at the food in his hands, Zhou Yuan's face remained blushing, his face was contemplative and uncertain, but there was joyful anticipation in his heart.
Zhou Yuan brought back so many things that he couldn't hide them even if he wanted to.
"Uncle, uncle, snacks."
"Uncle, wow, so much food!"
"Uncle, is this for us?"
The nephews and nieces chattered a lot when they saw the delicious food in his uncle's hands. Usually, the uncle would buy them snacks when they came back. They had a good relationship with the uncle, so they all surrounded him and asked him for snacks. Zhou Yuan was trapped among the children and couldn't get out, so he had to take out a pack of oil paper and hand it to his elder brother and son Shi Shi, asking him to share it with his younger siblings.
The little nephews and nieces took the food and went outside to share.
Zhou's mother heard the voice coming out of the house, and she kept thinking about whether her brother was in a better mood when he went out in the morning. When he came back, she put down her needlework and came out of the house.
"Yuan Yuan, you're back." Zhou's mother's eyes fell on her elder brother carrying a big bag in his hand, with a surprised face, "This... Yuan Yuan, where did you get the things in your hand? "
She knows how much money her brother has. If he buys so many things, he will run out of money if he has enough money. Her brother is not a big spender either.
Zhou Yuan didn't know how to explain it, so he stood where he was, "Mother..."
"Yuanyuan, take the things into the house first, and explain to your mother."
Zhou Yuan obediently followed Zhou's mother into the house, feeling uneasy, afraid that Zhou's mother would scold him for accepting Wei Cheng's things at will.
Sitting down, Mother Zhou asked, "Who gave it to you?"
Zhou Yuan put the things on the table, stood in front of Zhou's mother, and did not hide it, "Wei Cheng gave it."
"Wei City?! He bought this?"
"Ok."
This can't allow Zhou's mother to be surprised. How could Wei Cheng buy so many things for her brother? Zhou's mother was a little nervous, "Tell mother, how could Wei Cheng buy you so many things for no reason?"
"I have no idea........"
Zhou Yuan said that today he and his friends met Wei Cheng on the street. Wei Cheng originally wanted to treat someone, but then turned and walked away, telling him to wait at the same place, and buy cakes and snacks for him when he came back. As for meeting Zhou Xianger and Zhou Qingqing, He didn't say.
Mother Zhou couldn't make up her mind after hearing her brother's words, and then looked at her brother, who still didn't understand what he was thinking, and when it came to Wei Cheng, her face turned red and her eyes dodged. After returning from a blind date in the county town, she has been out of her mind for a few days. Her brother must have fallen in love with Wei Cheng.
This was originally destined to be impossible, but it happened today, at least in my heart, I felt that Wei Cheng had some thoughts on her brother.
She also hopes that her elder brother can find a sweetheart to marry.
I just don't know if this Wei Cheng is really interested in her brother.
In the county town, she can also see Wei Cheng's character from Wei Cheng's behavior. If her Zhou family and the Wei family were married, it would definitely be her Zhou family's high ranking. For two more days, she absolutely disagreed with her brother going on a blind date in the county.
But now, her brother's heart is set on Wei Cheng, if Wei Cheng is also interested, she will not object to her brother marrying the person she likes.
"Yuanyuan, you go back to your room first, when your father comes back later, mother will discuss with your father."
It's afternoon, and people are coming back soon.
Zhou Yuan returned to his room after listening to Zhou Mu's words, his thoughts were still confused.
After returning from the field, Zhou's father, the three older brothers of the Zhou family, and several sisters-in-law of the Zhou family were chatting at the place where the women of the village gathered, and they also counted the time to come back.
The little ones had snacks and ran out early, but they didn't see them.
Everyone entered the room together. The living room was originally not big, and it was even more cramped.
At the same time, his eyes fell on the table, several boxes of pastries, and bags of oil paper.
All shocked!
"Mother, where did this come from?" Zhou Yuan's sister-in-law immediately called out, intending to reach out to look through it, while the second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law followed the steps of the sister-in-law to look through it, but Zhou's mother's words made them stop.
"You three go out first."
There are so many good things here, such as pastries and dried fruits, Zhou Yuan's sister-in-laws are not willing to let them go, Zhou Yuan's sister-in-law can't wait to take them all back to the house. The sister-in-law raised a smile, "Mom, then these..."
Looking at Zhou Mu's serious gaze, Zhou Yuan's sister-in-law had no choice but to keep her mouth shut. Although Zhou Mu was a good mother-in-law, once Zhou Mu's expression became serious, they would not dare to make a mistake.
Go out angrily.
No matter how dissatisfied I was in my heart, I didn't dare to speak out, and I dared to mutter outside the house.
How could Zhou's mother not know the thoughts of the daughters-in-law in the family, and secretly said that her brother could not get married because of the family, and had to be supported by the family, and she disliked her brother, and the rough man in the family didn't understand, how could she not Know.
The things on the table belong to her brother, and no one is allowed to move unless she speaks.
Unrelated people went out, and Zhou's mother told Zhou's father and three sons about the matter.
"Master, what do you mean by Wei Cheng?"
Father Zhou, who was silent for a moment, said, "Find someone to go to Wei's house to find out."
Zhou Yong cried out in dissatisfaction, "Why are we looking for it? If Wei Cheng has feelings for my brother, he should be the one looking for someone."
"Brother is right. If you go to find out and let outsiders know, we must say that our Zhou family has no shame." Brother Zhou Shan said on Tuesday.
Brother Zhou Zheng on Wednesday: "Father and mother, we have to consider my brother's reputation. If Wei Cheng has feelings for my brother, Wei Cheng will find someone to come. If he doesn't find someone to come, then he has no heart for my brother."
Zhou's father said seriously: "You are all right."
Mother Zhou nodded: "Then wait for two days."
If Wei Cheng made such a move in the county, if he really liked his brother, he should find someone to be a matchmaker. If not, no matter what Wei Cheng meant, she would stop his brother from contacting Wei Cheng.
Brother's reputation is the most important thing, how can we allow such ambiguous contact.
Zhou's mother planned to divide the things that her brother brought back. Put the cakes if they can, and let the family share if they can't. The oily paper wraps candies and dried fruits, which can be stored as snacks.
Zhou's mother opened a bag of oil paper, looked at it, and exclaimed, "Why is there still meat here!"
Zhou's father and the three brothers of the Zhou family also watched Zhou's mother tidy up. They were also very surprised to see so many things, and they all looked at Zhou's mother's words.
The meat must weigh two catties.
Meat is a rare commodity. Meat weighing more than 20 cents a catty is difficult for country people to eat. Zhou’s family can only buy half a catty in a month or two for tooth sacrifices. Meat weighing two catties is difficult for them. Surprised by Wei Cheng's generosity.
After being shocked, they all recovered, but they could see that the three brothers of the Zhou family were all greedy for the meat in Zhou's mother's hand, and Baba waited for Zhou's mother to speak.
Zhou's mother decided, "Cook all the meat tonight and have a good meal at home."
The three brothers of the Zhou family showed joy on their faces.
"Go and call your daughter-in-law in, and share the things." Mother Zhou said.
"yes!"
