After breaking off the marriage, the Zhuangyuan Lang who was picked up was dressed weakly every day

Chapter 40
The small courtyard was suddenly flooded with people. At first glance, it was a sea of ​​people, comparable to the Chinese New Year.

Even the wolf dog Tang Yuan ran over to join in the fun, sniffing wildly at someone's legs, and finally stopped next to Li Jiahao, looking up at his oily face that kept sucking it with a sweat towel, and even said "Haas" He stuck out his tongue like "Haas", as if it was also helping Li Jiahao dissipate heat.

Qin Yuehuai and Meng Changqing sat in the pavilion, drinking tea in silence and observing the grand scene in the small courtyard from a distance.

Mu Jin and Meng Changqing's servant Shidong brought benches and chairs and invited people to sit down.

Cai Xizhu sat on Shen Yanhan's swing and looked at Erlang of the Li family, frowning again and again: With Li Erlang's appearance, wouldn't his fourth brother also... I don't know how dad and the Li family are talking... …

Meng Er was dragged home by Aunt Meng and sneaked to Qiuwang Garden. Through the crack in the gate, he could see that there was a lot of excitement inside, and his eyes were darting around.

Shen Yanhan looked at the mountains of gifts on the table beside him and counted them silently.

After the hustle and bustle of people had subsided, she asked: "Second Young Master, I ordered a few pieces of cloth here last month, and I bothered you to personally deliver them to you today, but what about these...?" "

Li Jiahao smiled and replied: "Oh, this batch of goods is much later than the scheduled date. Our cloth shop feels sorry for it, so we sent some gifts to apologize to Mrs. Shen."

Merchants have been doing business for many years, and they rarely tell the truth. When she went to place an order, the clerk only gave her an approximate arrival time. Now that she heard what Li Erlang said, Shen Yanhan didn't know what to say. The vigilance has been lowered even more.

Who doesn’t understand that no merit is rewarded?
Shen Yanhan refused: "Second Young Master, you are very polite. I also told you when I placed the order that it would not be needed urgently, but now it is earlier than I expected, and you have to come to deliver it in person. I am already very grateful. How can I still ask for it?" What kind of apology? Second Young Master’s family should take it back.”

The young lady spoke eloquently. After wiping off the dust, her face was rosy and charming. The short section of snow-white neck on her collar was like the sweet glutinous rice cake, which made people want to take a bite.

Li Jiahao's eyes were hot and his heart was ready to move.

He swallowed, waved his hand and said generously: "Hey! It's the Double Ninth Festival, there's no reason to come empty-handed! It's just a small thing, it's not respectful."

"This……"

Before Shen Yanhan could finish his refusal, Li Jiahao waved his hand again, pointed at a jar and said, "I brought a jar of snowflake wine, which is most suitable for a young lady like Mrs. Shen to drink."

Shen Yanhan's beautiful eyes widened.

Although she has never drunk snowflake wine, she has heard of its name.Mutton and borneol are used in the brewing of this snowflake wine. Mutton is extremely expensive, and borneol is a valuable spice. There are very few snowflake wines on the market, and they are so expensive that it is difficult to reach.

She was just an individual customer of their cloth shop, and this was her first time placing an order. Why were they so generous to her?Shen Yanhan didn't understand even more.

She lowered her eyes and thought about it. When she raised her eyes again, she happened to see Li Erlang's eyes falling on her heart. There seemed to be a burning fire in it, and Shen Yanhan's heart jumped sharply.

She took a step back and said calmly: "I understand the kindness of the second young master. There is no need to be so polite. I will settle the payment with you now, and I will rely on your shop to provide me with better products in the future."

As soon as she finished speaking, Hibiscus handed over the purchase money that had been prepared for a long time.

Shen Yanhan handed the money bag to Li Jiahao and said politely as before: "I would also like to ask the second young master to count the money. If it is suitable, then I will not delay the second young master to deliver goods to other people."

Seeing that she wanted to drive others away, Li Jiahao, who was used to being arrogant, also turned cold.

He looked at her, smiled with a smile on his face, and said with a hint of coercion: "I've come all the way to see you, and you have to buy Madam Shen a cup of hot tea, right?"

As soon as Li Jiahao finished speaking, Meng Changqing's joking words came from the courtyard -

"How can a little tea be enough? Then you have to cook sheep, make wine, and sweep the court to be worthy of your glittering status, Li Jiahao!"

Li Jiahao turned to look at the speaker in surprise, his pupils shrinking.

After hesitating for a moment, he called out: "Cousin?"

Hearing this greeting, Cai Xizhu pressed her feet to the ground, and the swaying swing stopped with difficulty.

Shen Yanhan was also surprised. Only then did she understand. Just now, she felt that Li Erlang's face was familiar. What was so familiar about it.

Li Jiahao and Qin Hui's wife Wang Qiong are really similar in appearance. Their round face and broad forehead are almost carved from the same mold.

Shen Yanhan felt good.

There are three women in the Wang family, Wang Qiong, Wang Wei and Wang Wan.

Wang Qiong married Qin Hui, and Wang Wei married Meng Jibai, the father of Meng Changqing.Wang Wan was born as a concubine, and her biological mother used a trick to get into Mr. Wang's bed. Both Wang Wan and her son were not welcomed by Mrs. Wang. When Wang Wan got married, Mrs. Wang knocked on the door and chose an ordinary merchant's house. Mr. Li gave him a haircut.

After Wang Wan married the Li family, the Li family gradually became prosperous, and now they have a great reputation around Lin'an Mansion.

Li Jiahao is Wang Wan's second son and Meng Changqing's cousin.

However, although they are cousins, their status is very different. Meng Changqing has been an official for a long time, but Li Jiahao is still an ignorant idiot who only relies on money to have fun.

Even though they were all regulars in the romantic scene, those who accompanied Meng Changqing were all elegant and talented women like Zhengyun, while the one Li Jiahao was accompanying was much more vulgar and tacky.

For Meng Changqing, his cousin, just as his mother couldn't offend the Wang family, Li Jiahao couldn't offend him either. In front of Meng Changqing, he could only behave with his tail between his legs.

Therefore, seeing Meng Changqing here, Li Jiahao's cold face became warm again. He trotted forward to greet him and bowed to Meng Changqing.

Meng Changqing tapped his folding fan on his shoulder, "When did you, the second young boss, start to bother you, the second young boss, to do your own work on your cloth workshop? Are you still going to deliver goods to your door, on such a festive day? Are you very free?"

Although the irony in these words was obvious, Li Jiahao did not dare to reply in the slightest. He just followed Meng Changqing's words and said: "My cousin, I don't know. I have been running the cloth workshop business for a long time. Qingshan County, Bishui County, Wanhua County, several counties were handled by me."

"Hey, I've become more capable." Meng Changqing smiled, "So these, these, and these are all side businesses of your cloth shop?"

When Li Jiahao saw Meng Changqing pointing at the gift he had brought, it was hard to say that he had spent a lot of money to prepare it with the purpose of pleasing the young lady. After all, his cousin of the Meng family was also a romantic and happy man. Who knew that he had nothing to do with this hidden man? What is the relationship between the beautiful and fragrant young lady in the village?

It is the nature of most people to bully the weak and fear the strong. He would not dare to steal a woman from Meng Changqing, who he could not afford to offend, even if he had [-] courage.

Li Jiahao said: "For the cooperative shops, they are willing to give away some gifts for the holidays, so our cloth shop will also give some to the customers, and we will share the blessings!"

"Then this snowflake wine...is also from your Bifang cooperative store?" Meng Changqing pointed at the wine jar and asked knowingly.

Li Jiahao changed his previous statement in front of Shen Yanhan and said with a stiff face: "Maybe... I took it by mistake."

He turned around and reprimanded his men: "Didn't I tell you that this jar of wine is going to be given to the filial aunt at the Duke of Qi's house? What are you doing!"

When the guys saw Li Jiahao standing up, they had already stood up together, waiting obediently with their heads lowered. At this moment, they did not dare to refute Li Jiahao's unwarranted scolding. It was his fault that the leader was so stubborn.

Meng Changqing had a bad personality, and seeing Li Jiahao coming to tease Qin Yuehuai's beloved wife, and seeing that Li Er was always domineering and domineering for money, this time he deliberately tried to embarrass him, so he said one after another Ask Li Jiahao what exactly he brought and where it came from.

Li Jiahao was made to sweat more and more without stopping, and he couldn't help wiping his forehead with a handkerchief.

Qin Yuehuai walked slowly and stood aside watching the movement without saying a word.

Shen Yanhan listened to Li Jiahao's words and silently calculated the accounts. She understood that the things he brought were worth ten times more than what she ordered, and her face became darker than the ash on her face just now in the kitchen. .It is true that waterlogging will kill you, and drought will kill you.

She, Zhuzhu, and Hibiscus worked for ten consecutive days before embroidering the first set of clothes. Thanks to the buyer's lack of counter-offer, she earned some money to continue to support the family. However, Li Erlang in front of her casually made a move and it was... Income from dozens of outfits.

Shen Yanhan was ashamed of how quickly he made money.

She still had to find a way to live a good life as soon as possible.

As Meng Changqing and Li Jiahao chattered, Shen Yanhan secretly swore in her heart and began racking her brains to think of ways to make money.

Shen Yanhan is extremely confident in Qin Yuehuai's painting skills, Cai Xizhu's color matching skills, and Hibiscus's embroidery skills. They can make unique and good things, but in the end, the most worrying thing is to sell the things.

After all, the aroma of wine is afraid of deep alleys.

Nowadays, no matter how beautiful and good their ready-made clothes are, they are only displayed in Cai Yu's clinic. After all, she has no money to rent a shop to display samples, so she can only go to places with the largest number of people to the best of her ability.

But Cai Yu is a rural doctor after all, so how many people come to see him?The people who are seeing a doctor are like the first buyer, a wealthy young lady, who takes a fancy to it and buys it without saying a word. How many customers can there be who are so cheerful?
Shen Yanhan stared blankly ahead. Inside his small mind, where no one else could see him, his thoughts were spinning as fast as he could.

Qin Yuehuai stood aside, looking at her motionlessly with his deep eyes.

After listening to Shen Yanhan's silence for a while, he began to mutter: "If you earn a hundred gu, you can go to Xiuzhenlou to have a good meal; if you make [-] gu, we can go on a long trip together and buy a shop." ... If I earn another five hundred guan... No, no matter what, I need to repair this house first. The house is only waterproof now, but there are not many pieces of furniture. We can't let the guests keep laying the floor..."

"Cough cough cough..."

Seeing that she was not stopping at all, Qin Yuehuai coughed several times.

The purpose of this cough was not only to interrupt Shen Yanhan's muttering, but also to interrupt Meng Changqing's incessant questioning of Li Jiahao.

"Second Young Master's family is busy with things, so don't waste his time any longer." Qin Yuehuai signaled to Meng Changqing that it was almost over.

Li Jiahao felt as if he had been granted amnesty, and a ray of light shone out from the gloomy clouds above his head.

"Cousin, it's getting dark. Since the goods have been delivered, I'd better go back early. I'll give these items, this snowflake wine, to my aunt right now..."

Meng Changqing used a folding fan to slap his paw that touched the wine jar, "It's the same if you leave it here and drink it. Take everything else away."

Li Jiahao sighed loudly.

His people also acted wisely and prepared to move things.

Qin Yuehuai looked at the small mountain piled on the table and said calmly: "Since they have been delivered, why move them again? Just keep them all."

Meng Changqing was so shocked that he opened his mouth slightly and looked at him in disbelief.

Does Qin Yuehuai like this?
Facing Meng Changqing's eyes, Qin Yuehuai smiled gently and said, "Thank you, my wife, for your kindness to the second young master."

Everything was quieter after that.

Li Jiahao came to Qiu Wangyuan with a red face, and walked out with a dark face. His men looked at each other inexplicably, and did not dare to say anything to ask for beatings. They just followed Li Jiahao silently, not even the steps under their feet. They are all a little more cautious.

Everyone walked into the vast dusk, and Shen Yanhan and Qin Yuehuai looked in the direction of the door together.

Both of them were thoughtful.

Shen Yanhan envied Li Jiahao's shining golden body, while Qin Yuehuai wondered which kind of rich man Shen Yanhan was more suitable for.

Meng Changqing put his hands behind his back and took some time to look at Qin Yuehuai, who seemed to be welcoming all comers.

But Qin Yuehuai staggered, then coughed repeatedly, looking weak.

Shen Yanhan nervously said to him, "Go and have a rest! You're too tired today," and then sent him to the house.

After leaving Qin Yuehuai's house, Shen Yanhan turned around and went to the kitchen to continue lighting the fire.

The tongues of fire in the stove came out from time to time, illuminating her worried face. When she looked at the tongues of fire and thought, Hibiscus noticed something strange about her.

"What are you worried about, madam?"

"Money." Shen Yanhan answered extremely briefly.

"Didn't I just make a fortune?"

"It's all spent to treat Qilang's illness." Shen Yanhan said, "I still need a lot."

Mu Jin was puzzled: "Isn't Mr. Lang getting better?"

Shen Yanhan sighed deeply. She couldn't talk about Qin Yuehuai's privacy, so she said, "I married a sick man with a weak constitution. He needs good medicine and good food to support him. It's really expensive and troublesome."

Mu Jin said with a smile: "As long as we make money, the cloth has arrived, and our food will be enough for a long time. Don't you enjoy taking care of your husband?"

This was a joke about her having to help people bathe themselves a few days ago.

When he thought that he had not completely taken off his clothes, but only kissed him for a moment and rubbed his collarbone twice, Qin Yuehuai coughed like he was suffering from tuberculosis, and even fainted with a bang. Shen Yanhan straightened his back and sat up straight. , angrily: "Nonsense! Who wants to take care of him? He is not a life to enjoy."

Mu Jin looked at Shen Yanhan and comforted: "My wife has been with my husband since he had nothing. When he becomes successful, I will treat you even more."

"There are so many people without conscience, but there are not many people who forget about their wives after getting rich."

Having said that, Shen Yanhan still curled his lips longingly.

Qin Yuehuai had a weak dinner under the continued surprise in Meng Changqing's eyes. After the meal, he did not stay with the guests anymore and lay back in the house exhausted.

Meng Changqing was very interested in poetry. He failed to get Qin Yuehuai to write poems, so he carried the wine bottle to the pavilion and leaned against the pillar like a boneless body.

Cai Xizhu had just helped Shen Yanhan clear the table when she heard him ask, "Can you know poetry?"

Cai Xizhu thought for a moment and nodded, fearing that she would be embarrassed if she was not strong enough, so she shook her head again.

Meng Changqing was amused by her youthful appearance and raised her long sleeves, "If you know it, just come! If you don't, come too, I can teach you!"

He was dressed in a chic and charming manner, with an intoxicating blush at the end of his eyes. In the moonlight, they looked like an unpredictable but extremely fascinating abyss. When people took a step into him, they would involuntarily take one step further, and another step further.
