After rebirth, I became the richest man in the capital

Chapter 128 The identity of the concubine is the marriage of the concubine

Meng Liangchen designed a big window in the store, the sunlight shines in through the window screen, the lighting is very good, but unfortunately there is no glass, so it can only be closed.

There were people coming and going on the street, so the seat by the window was rarely chosen, but today there were three people sitting there.

Meng Liangchen noticed it as soon as he entered the door. Coincidentally, she still knew two of them.

The shopkeeper in the store personally entertained the guests at this table with a smile on his face. The people sitting at this table were all masters he dared not offend easily.

But at this moment, the smile on the shopkeeper's face was a little stiff, and he didn't dare to say a word while standing there.

The middle-aged lady dressed in a rich dark green dress picked up a beautifully designed ruby ​​ring and put it on her hand. Her eyes lit up, and she looked at the other ruby ​​rings on the tray. Jewelry seems to be very suitable.

"The things in this shop finally have a sleepy eye."

As soon as she said this, she was sought after by Matchmaker Zhao.

"Ma'am, your skin is fair, and any jewelry is suitable for you. However, with your status, those vulgar things can't easily get into your eyes. This set can barely match you."

Her words won the hearts of the lady opposite, and the lady's face was full of smiles, as if she was very proud.

She asked the woman sitting next to her: "Rou'er, what do you think?"

Sitting next to her was Xu Rou, Xu Yao's younger sister.

She nodded and said, "Mother, not bad."

The noble lady is the prime minister's first wife, and she nodded when she heard her daughter's approval.

The shopkeeper was overjoyed, feeling that the business could finally be over, and was about to ask, but was interrupted by Matchmaker Zhao who was sitting opposite.

"Ma'am, you sent the women here today, but what do you think about the marriage between the Eldest Young Master and Miss Rou?"

As soon as she said this, the interrupted shopkeeper's face froze again, but he didn't dare to say anything, and continued to stand not far away.

The prime minister's wife didn't shy away from it, as if she didn't see anyone standing beside her.

While reaching out to pick up other jewelry on the table to look at, she opened her mouth: "The Meng family is determined not to marry our prime minister's mansion?"

Matchmaker Zhao's face turned ugly for a moment, as if recalling some bad memories, and the words she said became more emphatic.

"Ma'am, you don't know that the eldest lady of Menghou's mansion is very crazy, and she is not suitable for a daughter-in-law!"

The prime minister's wife raised her face, with surprise in her eyes: "Oh? Is that so?"

Matchmaker Zhao immediately said: "Isn't it? Not to mention that the women have suffered from her, even our young master has suffered from her! That's no face at all!"

The face of the prime minister's wife turned a little bit cold the moment she heard that Xu Yao had eaten at Meng Liangchen's place.

"It's so uneducated!"

At this time, Xu Rou also echoed in a low voice: "Mother, it is true."

The shopkeeper's face turned pale, and he couldn't help taking a step back.

Standing at the door and being forced to listen to bad things about him, Meng Liangchen frowned, his eyes full of interest.

Shi Lan frowned, and was about to walk thousands of miles inside to argue, but Meng Liangchen stretched out his hand to stop her, and shook his head at her to signal her to keep quiet.

She didn't even intend to go inside, so she found a seat and sat down, planning to listen for a while.

As soon as the prime minister's wife heard Xu Rou's words, she knew that her daughter had suffered a lot from Meng Liangchen's hands, so she raised her eyes to look at her, her eyes were condensed, with a hint of hatred for iron.

"Zuo Zuo is just a princess with a different surname who has just been canonized. Could it be that you have been easily manipulated by her?"

Her tone was light, but full of contempt.

Xu Rou lowered her head without daring to refute, Zhao Matchmaker looked at the two of them very winkingly, and spoke for Xu Rou.

"Ma'am, you don't know, that girl has a fierce mouth, just as difficult to deal with as that country woman! I, an old woman, have suffered from her, let alone a dignified and elegant lady like Miss Rou, Rou Miss has a good temper, so naturally she doesn't want to entangle with such unruly people!"

If she didn't speak for Xu Rou, but made Meng Liangchen louder, wouldn't she be responding to the Prime Minister's wife saying that she was incompetent?
The face of the prime minister's wife became better, and she said: "Then, this Meng Liangchen is really not suitable to marry back to the prime minister's mansion as a daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law of my prime minister's mansion should have the demeanor of a lady from a famous family. It's better to avoid such a country woman's self-cultivation."

The shopkeeper couldn't help but wanted to raise his sleeves to wipe his sweat, and took another step back.

His actions caught the prime minister's wife's attention, and she looked up.

"Shopkeeper Tong, do you have other high-quality pearl hairpins, bring them up for the old man to see?"

Shopkeeper Tong, as if he had received an amnesty, hurriedly responded and walked away quickly. He bypassed the partition and saw Meng Liangchen sitting there at the door. His face changed and he opened his mouth to call for someone.

Meng Liangchen stretched out his hand to his mouth and "hush", signaling the shopkeeper to keep quiet, the shopkeeper bent down and saluted, but he couldn't help but raised his sleeve and wiped the unnecessary sweat on his forehead.

The conversation over there was still going on, and Meng Liangchen's mouth felt a little uncomfortable. It would be great if there was a plate of melon seeds on the table at this time.

Just as he was thinking like this, a plate appeared on his hand. Meng Liangchen looked over it unexpectedly, and his eyes couldn't help but brighten up.

It turned out to be Ripples!
She gestured for Lianyi to sit down, and the two of them ate melon seeds in a very tacit understanding, and the shopkeeper served them a pot of jasmine tea very sensibly.

After the shopkeeper Tong left, the prime minister's wife changed the subject and said, "However, isn't the eldest son of the Meng family a new crowned son? You can consider marrying the daughter of the prime minister's mansion."

Matchmaker Zhao looked at Xu Rou with surprise in her eyes: "Ma'am means..."

Xu Rou also looked at her mother with some doubts. Didn't her father and mother have already discussed that she would marry the eldest prince or one of the second princes?
The prime minister's wife revealed a hint of distaste on her face, and said: "The status of a concubine is naturally a marriage with a concubine."

Matchmaker Zhao suddenly realized that Xu Rou is not the only daughter in the prime minister's residence!
Hearing this, Meng Liangchen's face changed slightly, he frowned slightly, and threw the melon seeds in his hand onto the plate.

Lianyi ate melon seeds with relish, seeing Meng Liangchen's movements, his eyes lit up, and he immediately perked up.

The sound of cracking melon seeds here continued to reach the ears of the three people. The prime minister's wife was already upset by hearing it, and she couldn't help but frowned, but she couldn't directly attack it, so she changed the subject.

"Why hasn't Shopkeeper Tong brought the things here, and I don't know who the owner of this shop is. The things are not good, and the shopkeeper I'm looking for is not good either!"
