Chapter 1162
No matter how much she cried, she couldn't get Rong San to look at her.
No matter how much she acted, she still didn't get Rong San to agree to cancel the marriage.
After playing and making trouble for a while, she was tired, exhausted, and tired, and finally had to welcome her wedding day in despair.
……
The next day, Xia Zihan, who was tired from being tortured by Chu Jingqi, slept until noon before getting up.
When she woke up, Chu Jingqi was no longer around, but the two children were reading quietly outside.
Hearing some movement in the house, the two little buns put down their books in unison and ran into the inner room, "Mother, get up. I'm here to say hello to you."
The two little buns saluted Xia Zihan seriously.
Looking at his two lovely sons, Xia Zihan's cheeks were slightly red, he coughed twice, and said somewhat uncomfortably, "Get up, you go wait for mother outside first. Mother will go out after washing up."
I slept until noon and my son found out. It was really shameless.
It's all Aqi's fault. She told him not to want it anymore. When he got better, the more she said she didn't want it, the more enthusiastic he became. In the end, it wasn't until broad daylight that she fainted before he was willing to let her go.
Chu Yijie pouted his lips, looked at his mother, who had disheveled hair and was still getting dressed, and said in a childish voice, "The child came early in the morning. Dad said that mother was tired and needed to rest, so as not to let the child wake her up."< br>
"Then you had breakfast here?"
"Well, after my father had breakfast with me and my brother, he said he was going to the palace and told me and my brother to keep an eye on my mother."
Hearing Chu Yijie's words, Xia Zihan was so embarrassed that he had no face to see anyone.
How deeply did she sleep? Aqi and her son were eating outside, but she didn't even wake up, and even let her son watch over her all morning.
"Okay, mother needs to wash up. Ajie, let's go out first." Seeing that mother was embarrassed and blushing, Chu Yixuan twisted his eyebrows and pulled his brother out.
Chu Qingqiao quickly fetched hot water and helped Xia Zihan wash and comb.
After the stick of incense passed, Xia Zihan came out of the inner room. Chu Ji and Chu Yun had already laid out lunch, and two little buns were sitting upright at the table waiting for her. When they saw her coming out, they all came down to salute.
Chu Yijie raised his little head, looked at his beautiful mother brightly, and said, "Mother, my father ordered the kitchen to stew ginseng chicken soup for my mother to drink. It has been stewed for more than two hours. It is soft and delicious, mother. Eat more.”
This is a task that their father specifically told them before going to the palace. They must supervise their mother to drink two bowls of chicken soup. Their mother has lost weight recently, and their father is heartbroken.
"Mom, the cook also made your favorite bamboo shoot slices and sauced pork ribs. These are all what dad ordered the cook to make." Chu Yixuan also said.
Xia Zihan looked at the dishes on the table, all of which were her favorites, and her heart felt as sweet as honey.
The resentment in my heart that blamed him for not having a good time at night also disappeared in an instant.
Xia Zihan led the two little buns to eat. Under the eyes of the two little buns, she gritted her teeth and finished two bowls of chicken soup. The mother and son went to the flower house for a walk.
Chu Qing came over to report that Qi Lan was here.
"Let her in." Xia Zihan said. Yesterday afternoon, she sent someone to write a letter to Qi Lan, asking her to come see her today. Her appointment was in the morning.
"This slave has met the master." Qi Lan came in, knelt down, and then said, "This slave has been here in the morning, but the master hasn't gotten up yet. I heard Master Jie said that you have to sleep until you get up in the afternoon, so I thought of going back to the shop first. No, the slave came right after dinner in the afternoon.”
Looking at Xia Zihan's eyes, full of teasing, Xia Zihan's eyes flickered and he pretended not to notice.
She asked Qi Lan to sit down and asked Chu Qing to pour tea for Qi Lan. After Chu Qing went to play with the two little buns, she said, "Xia Zijiang is engaged. The decision will be made in two days. You can choose in the shop." Bring out some suitable jewelry and clothes and send them to Xia’s house before tomorrow afternoon.”
"Xia Zijiang?" Qi Lan was stunned, and it took him a while to remember who it was, "Is he Xu's son?"
Then he pulled a long face and earnestly advised Xia Zihan, "Master, you have a grudge against Mrs. Xu, her son is getting engaged, why do you care so much about it, and yet you still give him things for free? Bah... You don't even think about this kind of person. You don’t need to pay attention to him.”
"I'm not giving him away, I just want to help my father and mother." Xia Zihan said, "His marriage has to be handled by my mother. The dowry my mother brought when she married my father has been used in the past few years. It has been used on my father and two younger brothers for almost the same amount of time. There is nothing left, and I can’t get rid of it at all. If I don’t help her, she will be too embarrassed to mention it to me, so she has to buy it outside and let outsiders make money. It’s better for me to lose some and give her some, anyway. It doesn’t cost a lot of money.”
Qi Lan understood and nodded, "There just happened to be a batch of goods coming to the shop. My sister brought them this time. There are top quality, first-grade, and second-grade goods. Which one do you want, Master?"
"The Lu family is just a small family. The gift is too good, but it will make people misunderstand that the Xia family is suppressing them and increasing their burden. Just pick out a few sets from the second-class products."
The gifts given by Dashengguo to Xiaoding are all very particular. If the gift given by the man is good, the woman must not give the same gift in return, otherwise, she will be looked down upon by the man.
Xia Zihan had already seen the Lu family's family background when he went there that day, so Xia Zihan lowered the level of the gift by two points.
"I understand. I'll make the selection in the afternoon and send it to Mrs. Xia Er early tomorrow morning," Qi Lan said.
After saying this, Xia Zihan brought up another matter, "See if there is a suitable shop for sale on Dongda Street. Let's buy it. I want to open a pen and ink shop."
"Ah, isn't this taking away Mrs. Biao's business?" Qi Lan was dumbfounded. She didn't understand why the master wanted to take away Mrs. Biao's business when it was so good.
Did you have a quarrel with your cousin?
The cousin in Qi Lan's mouth refers to Liao Fangyi. Liao Fangyi owned a pen and ink shop that Xia Zihan helped her take care of. Later, after Liao Fangyi got married, Xia Zihan gave up.
Xia Zihan said, "She is at the west end of Dongda Street. If we open another store in the north end, we can't take away her business. There are several stores opening in the north end. If we want guns, we will also take away the business of the shops in the north end."
Besides, it was said to be a pen and ink shop, but she wanted to mainly sell books, especially those unique and rare books that were hard to find. If she bought them well, the profits would be considerable.
For some people who don't like books, an orphan rare book is just a piece of useless paper, but for some people who love books like their own lives and chew on them like crazy, they are priceless treasures, treasures that are hard to find.
"Okay, I will send someone to look for it. If I find something suitable, I will buy it directly."
Qi Lan said, stood up and was about to leave, "Master, do you have any other orders?"
"No more."
"That slave please retire."
Qi Lan saluted, said goodbye and left.
