Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine
Chapter 437: Looking at each other
When the family was waiting for dinner that day, Dong Jingtang said: "Sir Cheng answered today. The young man will come to our house with his mother the day after tomorrow. We must entertain him well then."
Xu Yiwan nodded, "Don't worry, I will definitely entertain them when they come to your door."
Dong Jialin said: "My mother and I will receive the guests together."
"I'm not here to see you, why are you so excited?" Xu Yiwan was worried that he would cause trouble in such an occasion.
"I am Afu's second brother, so of course I have to look after her. Mom, believe me, I can tell whether a man is good or bad right away."
Dong Jingtang said, "It's okay to let Jia Lin come along. They young people can still talk."
"Dad is so right." Dong Jialin flattered him.
"You have to restrain yourself that day, leave a good impression on others, and don't embarrass your sister." Xu Yiwan warned uneasily.
"What Mom said is so sad," Dong Jialin turned to Dong Jiafu and asked, "Afu, have I ever embarrassed you?"
Dong Jiafu knew he was joking, so she smiled and shook her head, "Second brother is handsome and handsome, how can he be embarrassed?"
"I knew Afu was the most discerning." Dong Jialin said cheerfully.
Seeing his proud look, Xu Yiwan couldn't help but ask: "Don't just join in the fun. What's going on with the girl you like? Have you expressed your feelings to others?"
When Dong Jialin was asked about his sadness, he immediately stopped laughing.
"Not yet, I haven't seen her for a while."
"Ah, you didn't do something to make this girl angry, right?" Xu Yiwan became nervous.
Dong Jialin carefully thought about the two of them.
The last time they met, Miss Jiang came to the tea house to drink tea and listen to books as usual. He even specially prepared a private room for her and said a few words to her. Later, he had to leave for something, and when he went to tell her, he didn't see anything strange in her.
But from that day on, she never came to the teahouse or bookshop again.
He was also very depressed after not seeing anyone for so long, "No, I've been busy with business in the store all day, what can I do?"
Listening nearby, Dong Jiafu couldn't help but said: "Second brother, is it because you only care about business that the girl doesn't feel your affection and is left out?"
Dong Jialin was stunned, "Is this true? But Miss Jiang and I have always gotten along like friends. Will friends be like this?"
"Of course, friends also have to take care of each other." Dong Jiafu said seriously.
Her stupid brother had just figured out his own feelings, so she had to push him forward.
"The girl's surname is Jiang? Ask her where she lives and take the initiative to find her." Xu Yiwan gave him some advice.
"But I only know her last name. The capital is so big, where should I find her?" Dong Jialin regretted it now. He should have just asked Miss Jiang about where she lived. Now that she doesn't show up, he doesn't know where to find her even if he wants to. Where to find it.
Xu Yiwan also blamed him, "Now that you know you are anxious, why did you go there earlier? If Miss Jiang stops going to your store, you will miss her."
"Mom, don't scare me..." Dong Jialin didn't dare to think about what he would do if he never saw Miss Jiang again.
"Second brother, don't worry," Dong Jiafu advised, "Maybe it's because Miss Jiang has something to do and it's not convenient for her to come out these days.
Wait patiently. "
"I hope so."
Dong Jialin was dejected. He didn't eat much dinner and was restless all night.
Early the next morning, he went to the bookshop and the teahouse respectively, and told the people there that if they saw Miss Jiang, they must help him keep her.
On the day when Mrs. Cheng and Mr. Cheng came to visit, Xu Yiwan, Dong Jiafu and Dong Jialin were waiting to receive them early.
After entering the door, the two parties chatted for a while.
Mrs. Cheng looks a few years older than Xu Yiwan. She has a round figure, a rich face, and a friendly smile.
The mother and son looked very much alike. Mr. Cheng was a little shy. After he first glanced at Dong Jiafu, he never dared to look directly at her again.
"Mrs. Cheng, please sit down quickly. It's been a hard journey all the way." Xu Yiwan led them to the hall.
"Mrs. Dong, you are so polite. In fact, I have long wanted to make friends with you, but I just didn't have the chance. Now that I can finally come and talk to you, please don't think I am stupid."
"Look what you said, I'm just not good at socializing with others, so I rarely go out. Mrs. Cheng came over today, and it's too late for me to be happy." Xu Yiwan turned around and ordered Chun Cao to serve refreshments.
After taking her seat, Mrs. Cheng looked at Dong Jiafu who was sitting opposite her calmly while praising Dong Jialin next to her.
"Your Majesty is truly a talented man. It's a pity that I came late and didn't have the chance to see your champion."
"Mrs. Cheng is overly praised. They are just ordinary children." Xu Yiwan unconsciously looked at Mr. Cheng with the eyes of a son-in-law. "I heard that Mr. Cheng is serving in the Ministry of Personnel. He is really young and promising."
Mr. Cheng lowered his head in embarrassment after being praised in this way.
Dong Jialin spoke at this moment:
"Yes, Mr. Cheng is a role model for our generation."
Mr. Cheng waved his hands hurriedly, "No, no, no, Mr. Dong's words really upset me. I only hold the lowest position in the Ministry of Personnel, and it is really not worth mentioning..."
"I wonder what Young Master Cheng likes in his daily life?" Dong Jialin asked in a casual tone.
"On weekdays, apart from reading, I also practice calligraphy and painting."
It's so boring, Dong Jialin complained in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "I think Mr. Cheng's calligraphy and painting must be very good. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to take a look at it someday?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, it's just something I did casually, which made Mr. Dong laugh." Mr. Cheng spoke modestly.
Mrs. Cheng smiled and said: "You two are of the same age, so we should keep in touch with each other. I have four daughters, and I only have this son. His father has placed high hopes on him since he was a child. He invited several gentlemen to teach him, and he can be regarded as living up to his expectations. "
"He just knows how to read and has no other hobbies. If there is anything new in the future, please help Erlang of the Dong family to take care of him."
"Mrs. Cheng's words are serious. It's the younger generation who should seek advice from Mr. Cheng." Dong Jialin replied.
Xu Yiwan took over and said, "Yes, if he is half as talented and learned as a grown man, I will be very satisfied."
Because today we only let Dong Jiafu and Mr. Cheng meet each other, and they haven't even mentioned their horoscopes yet, so it's hard to say too much. Xu Yiwan and Mrs. Cheng only talked about some seemingly insignificant things and did not mention anything related to the marriage. In fact, they were secretly thinking about it.
Dong Jiafu listened to them quietly and didn't say much.
Mrs. Cheng, mother and son stayed for less than an hour before getting up and leaving.
After sending them out of the house, Xu Yiwan quickly asked Dong Jiafu, "Afu, do you think you have grown up?"
How is the young master? "
