return to the garden

Unhurriedly dropping a bomb on Tang Yuechao, Zhang Xiaoli got in the car and went home as if nothing had happened.

"Hey——" Tang Yuechao was naturally reluctant, "Wait a minute, I'll be with you." Tang Yuechao had already made up his mind, and if he didn't ask clearly, he might not even be able to sleep tonight .

Zhang Xiaoli rolled his eyes, he didn't want to wait for a while——

I really want to go home, I really want to see Brother Liao——

Tang Yuechao quickly packed up some things, and hurriedly took them into Zhang Xiaoli's carriage.

The carriage on the road was rickety, and Tang Yuechao was kowtowed from time to time, but these were far inferior to the panic in his heart...

"Do you know that I'm a brother?" Tang Yue looked at Zhang Xiaoli sitting quietly and ignored him for a long time. She suddenly understood in her heart that Zhang Xiaoli must be sure about this matter, otherwise it wouldn't be...

"That's right!" Zhang Xiaoli gave Tang Yuechao a strange look, although he only knew about it before he went to do business with the caravan, "Otherwise, would I ride in a carriage with you?"

"When did you know?" Tang Yuechao nodded. He had no gender difference towards Zhang Xiaoli in his heart, so he didn't think it was a big deal for Zhang Xiaoli to ride in a carriage with him, but thinking about it at this moment, it was indeed It's a little strange.

"I knew it before I went." Zhang Xiaoli didn't bother to hide it from Tang Yuechao, "Brother Liao told me."

"Liao Qing?" Tang Yuechao nodded. In his eyes, Liao Qing was indeed hiding something, and he couldn't see through it. It's normal for Liao Qing to know, "Does anyone else know?"

"There is no one else in the village." Zhang Xiaoli gave Tang Yuechao a reassurance, "Actually, you don't need it at all..."

Tang Yuechao couldn't help interrupting Zhang Xiaoli's words, "How could it be unnecessary? It's very necessary, believe it or not, as long as I say today that I'm actually a brother, our chamber of commerce will be attacked tomorrow, and our chamber of commerce will be destroyed." You won’t be able to sell anything, and no one will want to do business with us.”

This is the thought that Tang Yuechao has been indoctrinated by his mother all the time, but I don't know why I have heard it so much, but Tang Yuechao himself thinks so...

"Why do you think so?" Zhang Xiaoli glanced at Tang Yuechao disapprovingly, "In fact, I am also a brother, but I feel that I am no worse than a man. Am I not a brother when I go to the capital this time? Don't we The goods are not sold?"

"But—" Tang Yuechao scratched her hair irritably, "You don't understand at all!"

"Think about some things clearly. Is it because I don't understand or you don't understand?" Zhang Xiaoli said lightly, "I know you want to be respected, recognized by the society, and make a big splash in the mall, but first of all, why do you Just deny your brother's identity?"

Zhang Xiaoli doesn't know why he has never felt that being a brother is inferior to others, but in fact, the world is more strict with brothers, and the control of brothers is also stricter. At the same time, his social status is also very low ...

But Tang Yuechao's heart knot is obviously here. While he wants to be respected by the society as a second self, he doesn't agree with his identity, and he doesn't respect himself...

The two of them were basically silent in the second half of the journey, and drove all the way to Zhuangzi without saying a word.

When getting out of the car, Zhang Xiaoli saw Tang Yuechao's troubled face, and felt that he should talk to him again that day...

Both of them are brothers, if they are partners, Zhang Xiaoli thinks that maybe the two of them can get along well as brothers.

……

"Brother Liao..." Zhang Xiaoli jumped out of the carriage, just in time to see Liao Qing planning to go out, "Do you want to go out?"

"Xiao Li—" Because he didn't say it in advance, Liao Qing also had a look of surprise at this moment, "I planned to go out, but now that I think about it, it's not a big deal, so I won't go out today."

The two people's eyes met, and there was full of flowing affection inside, which made Tang Yue's teeth sore when he looked at it.

As a brother, are you tired of being with men all day long?Tang Yuechao couldn't help shivering, his whole body trembled, Tang Yuechao expressed his disgusting feeling, and he couldn't even imagine what he looked like...

Zhang Xiaoli pretended to look back inadvertently and glanced at Tang Yue: What kind of look was that?

After getting out of the carriage and carrying the small package in the carriage, Zhang Xiaoli and Liao Qing walked in the front, talking and laughing, while Tang Yuechao walked behind alone. The more they walked, the more depressed and sour they felt.

"Brother Liao, how are you?" Zhang Xiaoli held Liao Qing's arm, looking up at Liao Qing, acting coquettishly.

"Excellent—" Liao Qing gently rubbed Zhang Xiaoli's hair, "How is Xiaoli recently?"

"I am also very good—" Zhang Xiaoli nodded, "Business is also very good, and I am also very good, everything is fine..."

Liao Qing looked down at Zhang Xiaoli's eyes, which were full of tenderness.

"I asked you how you were on the way? Did you eat well? Did you lose weight? Did you feel unwell? Would it be too hot?..." Liao Qing rubbed Zhang Xiaoli's hair, "I've been worrying about you, and now you're back , Seeing you standing in front of me at this moment, I feel that those words are cumbersome and should not be asked."

"Brother Liao can ask you anything—" Zhang Xiaoli was overwhelmed with ecstasy when he heard Liao Qing's words, when finally Liao Qing said those sweet words, "I'll answer them one by one..."

Liao Qing nodded, with a smile in his eyes, "No problem, after you have a good rest, we can talk slowly after the rest, okay?"

I don't know if it's Liao Qing's illusion, but I always feel that Zhang Xiaoli has lost a lot of weight after going out...

"Okay..." Zhang Xiaoli nodded, "Then Brother Liao, what does he do every day in Zhuangzi? Did he eat well? Is he in good health?"

Liao Qing was about to answer, but Zhang Xiaoli added in a low voice, "Brother Liao, do you miss me every day?"

My God, Liao Qing was so sweet all of a sudden, "Of course! I think about it every day, and every time I miss you, I prepare a dowry and dowry for you. I have prepared a lot! Li came back and married me."

"..." Tang Yuechao followed the two of them, feeling extremely distressed.

He really did a crime, he just listened to Zhang Xiaoli's words, and ended up following him back, and it was fine after being talked to by Zhang Xiaoli on the way, why did he still have to be stuffed with dog food when he came back?

Tang Yuechao, after much deliberation, she couldn't figure out where she went wrong...

After entering the main courtyard, Liao Qing took the two of them to drink tea, yes, obviously Tang Yuechao was not invited, but thinking about the pain, he couldn't be the only one suffering, and the discomfort couldn't be uncomfortable, but Tang Yuechao still didn't feel uncomfortable. He hesitated and stayed.

"Brother Liao didn't spend any of his money—" Zhang Xiaoli happily took out a stack of bank notes, "And he made a lot of money back, Brother Liao, take it and see if it's enough?"

"Why don't you use it?" Liao Qing rubbed Zhang Xiaoli's hair, and didn't go to pick up the bag of bank notes, "I'll give you what I gave you, don't take it back."

"No——" Zhang Xiaoli smiled proudly, "I have always said that I want to raise Brother Liao, but I have been spending money from Brother Liao. Finally, I finally made money—this money is used to raise Brother Liao !"

Liao Qing couldn't laugh or cry, "I don't eat much, so I can't spend so much money. You still need to run your business, so take it back." I don't know why Liao Qing suddenly has a sense of being taken care of.

"It's all given to Brother Liao—" Zhang Xiaoli insisted on stuffing a small package of bank notes to Liao Qing, "Brother Liao put it away for me, and then take care of the money. If I run out of money for business, I'll ask Liao Qing again." Brother, that's it."

Liao Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and rubbed Zhang Xiaoli's hair. Seeing Zhang Xiaoli's serious face, he accepted the bank note, "Then I'll keep it for you—if you need money, you must come and get it."

"Okay, okay——" Zhang Xiaoli promised well, but he planned in his heart that he would never come to get it. This money was used to support Brother Liao, how could he take it back?

Tang Yuechao saw 200 million taels of silver bills passing in and out of two people's hands, and wondered why there are people who don't love money?

I don't like giving him money!He loves Yinzi, especially now that he can't love.

But after talking about it and wanting to think about it, Tang Yuechao was soured by the two people, and he had nothing but complaints in his heart.

"Brother Liao, why do you think I earned so much money back?" Zhang Xiaoli suddenly became naive, but he didn't know why he was with Brother Liao. I was very happy, listening to brother Liao's speech, hearing his voice, I felt my heart floating in the air was suddenly caught on the ground, and then carefully placed in someone's palm, the whole person was sore and swollen and soft Soft, with a sense of well-being spontaneously.

"I guess—" Liao Qing also rarely accompanied his young daughter-in-law's childishness, "I guess you used a gimmick."

Although Liao Qing is in this small village, it is impossible not to know what happened to Zhang Xiaoli. After all, he is Tiandao's own son, and mere small information is not a problem——

"Brother Liao is amazing!" Zhang Xiaoli took a sip of tea and began to talk about his great achievements, "Let me tell you, it's just some collected bird feathers and a piece of white tiger skin collected for 1 taels of silver. Nearly 200 million taels of silver."

Zhang Xiaoli kept talking, while drinking tea while chatting, he looked at Zhang Xiaoli gently, and listened carefully to everything that Zhang Xiaoli said on the road.

The two of them were so beautiful together, and Tang Yuechao felt that she was so bright beside her, that she couldn't stay any longer.

"Be reckless, don't do it next time." Liao Qing frowned as soon as he heard the danger, "You can make less money, but you can't be in danger. You are not alone. You have me and Xiao Lin, you must think carefully before doing anything—”

Although Liao Qing didn't think it was that dangerous, he didn't prepare for it. The kid was lucky and dared to do it next time, so he gave the most severe criticism.

"Okay, okay——" Zhang Xiaoli nodded his head, thinking that he would definitely not follow him next time he ran a business. After all, he and Brother Liao were going to get married in mid-November, so it was definitely impossible for him The one who went out and wandered around after becoming a relative, of course, took more time to spend with Brother Liao!

Thinking about it, Zhang Xiaoli was even more excited, "By the way, Brother Liao, I'm a little late, will our wedding be rushed?"

"No, don't worry, I've already told Matchmaker Liu, and the time has been arranged. If you don't come back by then, Xiaolin will replace you. First give all the previous gifts, and then wait Come back and get married." Liao Qing shook his fan, looking at Zhang Xiaoli with extreme tenderness.

"Fortunately, fortunately I'm back—" Zhang Xiaoli patted his chest and said happily, "I want to be here too!"

"Well—" Liao Qing rubbed Zhang Xiaoli's hair, "It's a good thing you're back, it just started the day after tomorrow—"

"Yeah——" Zhang Xiaoli went out for a trip, but when he came back, he felt extremely excited, especially when he saw Liao Qing, "It's less than two months——"

Zhang Xiaoli counted from day to day with his fingers.

Liao Qing also nodded, looking forward to getting married for no reason.

-

I have to say that Zhang Xiaoli is Zhang Xiaoli's elder brother. He has been staying with Liao Qing for a long time since he came back. Zhang Xiaolin didn't even see a shadow of him. It was only when he saw his brother sitting at the table eating at dinner at night that he realized that he was gone. came back--

Zhang Xiaolin: ...

The following days began to be busy and chaotic, because the wedding date is relatively close after all, so the preparations for the next things are not to mention cumbersome, and the schedule is also very tight——

Na Cai started, and the second one was to ask for the name. Matchmaker Liu had already arranged for this, and she took it away early. As expected, she got a lot of good words.

The third one is Najib, which is the etiquette of notifying the woman of the good news of divination and marriage after asking her name. It is also called "engagement". The keepsake of the marriage has been developed to use rings, jewelry, colored silk, gift cakes, gift incense candles, and even sheep and pigs, so it is also called sending or fixed engagement——

For this, Liao Qing didn't prepare too much, but simply prepared eight boxes.

A box of 88000 taels of silver bills, a box of silver ingots, a box of gold ingots, a box of pearl hairpins, a box of first-class rouge and gouache, a box of gemstones, and a box of shops in the county. The house deed, the last one in the box was Liao Qing's new land deed for good land.

One box after another was opened, and the eyeballs of the people who came to see it almost turned red with anger.

"Okay, okay——" Aunt Wu also came to watch the ceremony. Seeing this situation, I thought that Liao Juren should be sincere to Zhang Xiaoli, so I couldn't help being happy for Zhang Xiaoli, "Hey, Liao Juren is really sincere to Brother Li. Damn, Li Geer has made it through."

"Boil your head, why boil your head—" the aunt next to me spoke quite acrimoniously, "I have never seen anyone lose arms or legs, and I have never seen anyone show him face. What did he boil? Our lives are much better!"
