Seed dealers in ancient times

The weather is getting colder day by day, and the colder it is, the warmer the bed is, and the harder it is to get up.

Zheng Jiangting has never had the habit of staying in bed, but it was different after getting married. The number of times he stayed in bed in a few months was more than that of the previous half of his life combined. Who told a wife to hold her soft and fragrant?

"Stop, Xiaoxian, are you up?"

Hearing the sound, Chu Xian stood up and pushed Zheng Jiangting beside him: "Is it mother's voice?"

Zheng Jiangting's sleepy eyes were dim, and he hugged Chu Xian's waist subconsciously: "Mother never calls us in the morning, I heard wrong, sleep a little longer."

Chu Xian kicked him: "It's mother's voice, I heard it right, don't lie on the bed, have you forgotten that there is business today?"

"What business can there be?" Zheng Jiang stopped and said, "Huang Jingyi knows to go to the restaurant to watch."

"What restaurant are you looking at? Have you forgotten the Han family's wedding banquet today?"

"Stop!"

Zheng Jiangting followed suit and sat up, looking sideways at the door: "It seems that she is really a mother, I will go and have a look."

He stepped on his shoes to open the door, and Zou Yun was standing outside the door with a tray: "Mother, why did you bring over breakfast food this early in the morning? Xiaoxian and I know to eat."

Zou Yun blamed: "Who brought you breakfast, it's for Brother Xian."

Zheng Jiang stopped to get closer, and the bowl of brown soup was still steaming at the moment, obviously just from the pot: "What is this?"

"Didn't mother go to the temple fair outside the city a while ago? This is the folk prescription given by the master, and it is said to be able to have a son."

Zheng Jiangting frowned: "This doesn't look good, and Xiaoxian is taking medicine to regulate the body. What if there is an conflict between the two."

"No, my mother took this folk prescription and brother Xian's medicine to ask the doctor about it, and it's all right."

Zheng Jiangting was about to say something when Chu Xian followed him out: "Thank you, mother."

Zheng Jiangting was a little annoyed when he saw the person who was most tired of taking the medicine took the medicine with a smile.

"Mother, I will do these things myself in the future, and you will make medicine for me."

Zou Yun raised his brows with joy, then glared at Zheng Jiang for a while: "Look how sensible Brother Xian is."

Then she patted Chu Xian's hand again: "Okay, mother won't bother you two anymore."

Seeing the people walking away, Zheng Jiang stopped to close the door, and pulled Chu Xian into the room: "Why are you doing this, these folk remedies won't work."

"Do you understand what is the way to get along with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? Mother kindly found the medicine for me. If I don't want her, I would be so sad." Chu Xian said: "Mother also wants to hug her grandson earlier. She is at home now. It is a person who has worked hard for most of her life. Letting her enjoy the happiness for a while sounds like a good thing on the outside, but only you can know whether it is good or not. Normally, the old lady who lives in a house like ours spends her days watching Reading books to pass the time, but my mother can't read."

"Either it's Cheng Huan's child, but we don't have any children. Mother just wants to find something to pass the time."

Zheng Jiang sighed, he really hadn't thought about these things, he just wanted to earn more money, the business would be successful, the Zheng family would be able to gain a firm foothold in Jincheng, thinking of Zou Yun who had suffered for most of his life, going to Having affluent food and clothing and enjoying the life of a wealthy family is filial piety, but it is still not as thorough as Chu Xian thought.

"What you said makes sense, but I can't watch my mother torment you." Zheng Jiang stopped holding up the medicine and shook it, raised his eyes and turned around, and poured all the medicine into the flower pot on the window sill : "In the future, take it and give it to the flowers."

"Hey, you!" Chu Xian was annoyed and funny when she saw that chic and neat posture, "If the folk remedy works, I can really have a son."

Zheng Jiang stopped humming: "I don't like my son."

"If so what do you like?"

"Little brother is the best, like you, good-looking." Zheng Jiang stopped thinking, when he grows up, he will be able to cause trouble again.

Chu Xian laughed softly, remembering that when Hu Changzhi came to plant strawberry seedlings with him a while ago, he praised him and Zheng Jiangting for their good looks, and persuaded them to have more children in the future, so as not to waste their looks. The later children all grow up well, and they can find a good-looking partner. After several generations, Jincheng will have a lot of life pleasures.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I laugh if the son is born, it won't be too bad, after all, Brother Zheng is also very much appreciated by the girl and brother."

Zheng Jiang paused and said, "My little brother can see what you looked like when you were young."

Chu Xian's heart warmed up: "Okay, let's not talk about this, you poured your mother's medicine, what if she finds out?"

"Don't worry, she won't know." Zheng Jiang stopped and said, "I'll let Huang Jingyi go to the baby shop tomorrow and find a little girl for my mother. On the one hand, I can serve my mother, and on the other hand, I can also be a companion with my mother. , to pass the time."

"It's a good idea."

Zheng Jiang paused and nodded Chu Xian's head: "Okay, let's change clothes, don't we have to go to the Han family's wedding banquet?"

The Han family is located in the east of the city, which is the top wealthy area in Jincheng.

It is said that three times into the mansion, the buildings and pavilions in the house are very angry. Zheng Jiangting originally wanted to open his eyes. Perhaps the Han family was afraid that there would be too many people at the wedding banquet, so the banquet was not held at home. It is a restaurant that has been booked, and the banquet is in it.

The couple stayed at home for too long today, it was already late to go out, and it was almost noon when they came to the east of the city, and they could go to watch the wedding when they were in the house, but now the ceremony has already been completed, which makes no sense They even ran to other people's houses. If they had to make trouble in the past, the banquet in the restaurant might have started, so the two of them could only go directly to the restaurant.

And the restaurant where this banquet was held was no stranger, it was Fuyuezhai where Zheng Jiangting was the first child worker.

When Zheng Jiangting and Chu Xian arrived in sedan chairs, there were already more than a dozen sedan chairs piled up outside the restaurant, and people were coming and going. The master of the Han family, Han Qiong, was welcoming guests at the entrance of the restaurant, and the young man beside him was also greeting people. , it should be Han Qi, the young master of the Han family.

Chu Xian glanced sideways at Fu Yuezhai, and seemed to sigh slightly.

"What's the matter, but you don't want to go?"

"It's nothing, I'm just feeling a little bit emotional. Back then, I was a little brother waiting to be married when I went in and out of Fuyuezhai, but now I'm already a husband when I come here again." It's hard to have a good result. I didn't expect that God would still take care of him, and finally gave him a beloved man. Thinking about Zheng Jiangting's life experience, it was really a gift from God.

Zheng Jiang stopped to think, time really hastened: "Go in."

The two handed out invitations and congratulatory gifts. It was Han's eldest son who greeted them. He didn't know the two of them, so he only said a few polite words.When the two were about to enter the restaurant, Han Qiong saw the two again.

"Master Xiao Zheng, hurry up, please come inside. There are so many guests here today, and I forgive you for not entertaining." Han Qiong waved to Han Qi who was beside him: "Qi'er, this is the master Xiao Zheng that Dad told you about. .”

Han Qi was obviously a little dazed, and there was no figure of this person in his mind at all. Seeing this, Han Qiong added: "The shopkeeper of Qingfeng Tower."

Han Qiong suddenly realized, and he immediately stepped forward to salute with admiration on his face: "It turns out that he is the shopkeeper of Qingfeng Tower. I didn't expect to be so young. He is really young and promising, and he has been admired for a long time."

"Young Master Han loves you, and Zheng is ashamed." Zheng Jiangting took Chu Xian and introduced him again: "This is Zhuo Jing. I came to congratulate Ms. Han on her wedding."

The two parties were open-minded and obedient. Fortunately, there were many visitors, and the Han family father and son did not have so much time to entertain them. In the end, they were just a small shopkeeper who barely passed the name, and the distinguished guests who came and went today I'm afraid there are many.

The servants of the Han family led the two of them into the restaurant, and sat down at a window seat. At this moment, the dishes were already being served one after another.

"The two guests are free to change their slaves if there is anything to do."

After saying that, the servants withdrew.

Chu Xian looked eastward and westward, the whole restaurant was decorated with lights and festoons, and it looked festive, even others could tell at a glance that it was a wedding banquet, so he whispered: "The Han family's hand is really big, they even bought the whole Fuyue fast."

Both of them have worked in Fuyuezhai, so they naturally know that Fuyuezhai's charges are not cheap, and the entire restaurant is booked out, and it is decorated like this, but after a glance at the dishes, it is still the most expensive one in Fuyuezhai. Later, just seeing that there are people sitting on the three floors, I'm afraid that after this encounter, there is no one who can't afford one or two hundred taels.

"The Han family only has such a daughter, and she is still worried about getting married. Now that she is finally married, it is normal for the Han family to spend more."

"Hey, isn't this Master Zheng and Master Yunrong?"

The two were talking small things when they were interrupted by a sudden voice, and they couldn't help but look at the speaker at the same time.

"Guard Liao." Zheng Jiang paused and frowned, "Long time no see."

The man who was tall and thin, like a monkey spirit in clothes, has not gained weight now, just like the man he saw back then.

"I didn't expect that there were really two of them. I looked familiar from a distance and didn't dare to come over to recognize each other, but I also thought that there are few people in Jincheng who can stand out like Mr. Yunrong, so I dared to come here, and I didn't think it was serious." Still two."

Chu Xian smiled lightly: "Everything is the same as before, Liao Guan."

Liao Jianzhang smiled but didn't smile, he was still the same, it was just that he was a young cook in a restaurant, a young brother who was a performer, and now he came to the wedding banquet of Han's family despite his decent clothes.

Although the wedding banquet in Jincheng has always been to welcome strangers to come to ask for wine and drink, so as to make friends, but as far as he knows, the Han family's wedding banquet today sent out invitations. They were arranged to sit in a corner, and the two people's positions did not look like they didn't have invitations.

But Liao Jianzhang didn't bother to think about this anymore. What a small cook can do in just over a year. Looking at Chu Xian's clothes, he thinks that the two are married. They didn't know it in the restaurant before. It's not surprising to see him. He secretly laughed that if Chu Xian married someone else, he would have to figure it out and be afraid. Who knows what kind of rich family such a young man will marry, even if he is a concubine, then He is also a member of a rich family, so he can't be provoked if he does things for others, but now he has a cook, so that's another story.

He always remembered that these two couples left the restaurant one after another, which caused him a lot of trouble. Now that he saw the two of them again, thinking about this, he felt angry: "I don't know where Master Zheng is now after leaving Fuyuezhai. High?"

Zheng Jiang stopped listening to the eccentric tone and knew that this person was not here to reminisce: "No talent, I haven't found any good jobs."

"Hey, Master Zheng is still so humble. How can you not find a good job with all your abilities? Back then, Fuyuezhai couldn't tolerate you as a big Buddha. Why did you say these words to deceive us old friends? Don't you look down on me? Somebody Liao."

Chu Xian frowned, and was about to refute, when he heard a cry of joy, and immediately a little brother dressed like a flower and butterfly threw himself into his arms, with a coquettish and complaining tone: "Brother Xiaoxian, you Why don't you tell me when you come here, so we can come here together."

"Chang Zhi, don't be rude, you're away from home, look at what you look like!"

Chu Xian smiled: "Master Hu, it's all right."

"Father, go upstairs and sit by yourself. I'll sit with Brother Xiaoxian down below."

"Bullshit!"

Hu Changzhi sat down next to Chu Xian: "I'm not messing around, I don't want to face my cousin's pig face, and my good appetite will be gone by then."

Seeing that there was an outsider standing beside him, Hu Jinxin agreed with the baby son's statement, but still glared at Hu Changzhi out of face.

Hu Jinxin doesn't know Liao Jianzhang, but it doesn't mean that Liao Jianzhang doesn't know him.

"Master Hu."

"Who is this?" Hu Jinxin looked at Zheng Jiangting with obvious questioning eyes.

"This is Fu Yuezhai's steward, an old friend of mine."

Hu Jinxin gave Zheng Jiang a few words of politeness to Hu Jinxin, who stopped to save face.

"I'll go up first, and I have to ask Zheng Zhengfu to look after Chang Zhi for me."

"Master Hu, don't worry."

After Hu Jinxin left, Liao Jianzhang's whole face was a little uneasy. What kind of person is Hu Jinxin? At the beginning, Fu Yuezhai was bought from the Hu family. No matter how stupid he was, he could still hear the familiar tone between the two families. He lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot.

He laughed dryly, and was thinking of something nice to say, when he heard Hu Changzhi say to Chu Xian: "Brother Xiaoxian, didn't you say to take me to Qingfeng Tower for supper? I've been waiting for three days Now, I haven't waited for your invitation, didn't you forget about it?"

Chu Xian smiled helplessly: "Why are you so greedy."

"I'm greedy, so I can't blame your restaurant's famous supper in Jincheng."

"Your mouth is always good at talking."

"I'm telling the truth. If you don't take me there, dad won't let me go out at night. If you let someone buy it back, it will be too cold for supper these days. It won't taste good after you buy it."

Chu Xian said: "Okay, okay, let's go together tomorrow night."

Liao Jianzhang keenly captured the four characters of your restaurant. Who in Jincheng doesn't know Qingfeng Tower nowadays?It's just that some common people who can't afford the money don't know, then it's completely unreasonable for him to be a restaurant colleague and not know about Qingfeng Tower.

The former shopkeeper even complained to him that the number of customers in Fuyuezhai was not as large as before, and that Qingfeng Building was very popular at the moment, but he only perfunctoryly said a few words to the shopkeeper, after all, he had been to Qingfeng Building many times. , Either I have time to eat some supper, or a friend calls me to eat spicy antique cooking to warm my body.

When he went there, he met Zhang Fu, who used to be a clerk in Fuyuezhai. He was quite moved when he saw that kid. The dull boy who used to be in Fuyuezhai in the past is now so good-looking, and he also got mixed up with Qingfeng. The small steward of the building didn't think much about it at that time, how could he know that Zheng Jiang stopped opening Qingfeng Building, but now he knows that it is really down.

"Guard Liao, aren't you busy today?" Zheng Jiangting looked suspiciously at the person who was about to petrify beside him: "How about a drink or two?"

"Master Zheng, you're joking." Liao Jianzhang waved his hands again and again, and said bitterly, "I was the one who didn't know Mount Tai just now. Master Zheng, please don't take your words to heart."

"Hey, Guan Liao's words are serious. You have always been like this. How can I take these words to heart?"

Liao Jianzhang felt ashamed to keep throwing it here again, not to mention the past festivals, and now he offended people anyway, he said in a weak tone: "You and the young master are free, I will go to work first, Call me for something."

Seeing the man sneaking into the back kitchen dejectedly, Chu Xian shook her head: "He really hasn't changed at all from before, he's holding the high and stepping down, and playing with the wind."

Hu Changzhi asked suspiciously: "Isn't that your old friend just now?"

"Old acquaintances are not old friends."

Hu Changzhi moved his eyes: "Don't pay attention to him, he's just a slave who runs errands for others."

Chu Xian smiled knowingly: "You are no one with a poisonous mouth."

Zheng Jiang stopped watching Chu Xian's smile, and felt much happier. He leaned over and clicked his tongue: "Mr. Hu, you have repeatedly made my husband laugh in front of me, and I don't know where to put my face."

Chu Xianxu pushed Zheng Jiang to stop: "What nonsense?"

"You two, don't be loving as husband and wife in front of me." Hu Changzhi rolled his eyes, and tugged at the corner of Chu Xian's clothes: "Look, Uncle Han brought the bridegroom to toast."

Zheng Jiangting and Chu Xian looked up together, only to see Li Kesheng, who was dressed in a red robe, with a red face and a suit of gorgeous ornaments.Han Qiong led him to toast at the table, for fear that others would not know that he was a scholar, so every time he toasted at the table, he had to quote scriptures and say a few words in literature.

"Look how proud the groom is. A scholar who is a married couple is still pretending. No matter how he pretends to be elegant, others will still know that he is a man who is greedy for wealth."

Chu Xian whispered: "Do you know him?"

"I don't know him, so he should know what my cousin of the Han family looks like. If it wasn't for the sake of wealth, who would a normal man want to marry her? After seeing her, the incense will be cut off."

Chu Xian covered her mouth and laughed, "How can you say that about your cousin?"

Hu Changzhi said unhappily: "She is being polite when I say that. You don't know that when I was young, she was jealous of my good looks, and even ganged up with a group of servants to scratch my face and scratched three paw marks on my face. If it wasn't for me Dad looked for famous doctors everywhere, and it was easy to recover when I was young, but now I have three claws on a beautiful face."

Chu Xian took a deep look at him. Hu Changzhi is a very beautiful and delicate little brother. He has always loved beauty, so it's no wonder he resents him so much.

The two of them didn't talk for a long time, and the toast came to their table. Li Kesheng was obviously drunk at this time, and his cheeks were flushed. When Zheng Jiang stopped at the table, he almost thought he was drunk when he saw Chu Xian. He had hallucinations, and he stared at Chu Xian with a pair of eyes. Perhaps he was a husband, and his face faded from his youthfulness, and he looked better than before. It was not until his father-in-law introduced the two that he suddenly Surprised, Chu Xian really came to her wedding banquet.

"This is Zheng Jiangting, the treasurer of Qingfeng Tower, and his husband, Lang Chuxian." Han Qiong said with a smile, "My son-in-law, Li Kesheng."

"Congratulations to Mr. Han for having this wonderful son-in-law." Zheng Jiang stopped holding his wine glass and glanced at Li Kesheng: "Li Xiucai is very lucky."

Li Kesheng held the wine glass and shook his hands without a trace. He had fantasized many times that he would enjoy wealth after entering the Han family. He appeared in front of Chu Xian with a luxurious face, which made him regret not following him. It would be too embarrassing to meet the couple in this scene.

"Kesheng, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and toast!"

Han Qiong elbowed the dazed Li Kesheng.

"Hey, why does the groom's official keep staring at our brother Xiaoxian? Could it be that he's drunk?"

Han Qiong's expression froze, and he was thinking about who would dare to speak rudely at the wedding banquet. He squinted and glanced at Hu Changzhi next to him, and he smiled again: "So it's Chang Zhi, why are you so old that you still love him?" Just kidding, how can you be here alone, where is your father?"

"Daddy is upstairs. I saw Brother Xiaoxian downstairs so I sat here."

Hu Changzhi said: "Uncle Han, I think my cousin-in-law doesn't drink very well."

Knowing that he had lost his composure, Li Kesheng quickly withdrew his gaze, pretending that he had never seen Chu Xian, and stopped with Zheng Jiang through gritted teeth: "Often I hear my father-in-law talk about the shopkeeper of Qingfenglou. It's better to be famous than to be famous. Xiaosheng should do it first." For respect."

Han Qiong echoed: "Shopkeeper Zheng laughed at me, my son-in-law really doesn't drink well."

Zheng Jiang paused with a half-smile: "Scholars don't like wine and poetry, why should I laugh at it?"

"Hahahaha, the shopkeeper Zheng is generous, small wine and small dishes, sorry for the poor hospitality, everyone do it yourself."

Han Qiong smiled and said goodbye, and then led Li Kesheng upstairs. When he turned his back, his face suddenly sank again: "What's the matter with you? It's embarrassing for the public. Let me tell you, from now on, you will be the best." Put away the flirtatious and sentimental style of you scholars, you are shameless and my Han family wants more, if you dare to attract bees and butterflies outside in the future, don't blame me, my old man, for being ruthless!"

Li Kesheng felt guilty, and repeatedly confessed: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law just got drunk for a while and went into a trance, not because he wanted to spy on other people's husbands, and he will definitely not behave so frivolously while drunk in the future."

Han Qiong sneered, it was also the first time he saw Mrs. Zheng's husband. He had heard that Zheng Jiang Ting married a young man to be his husband. At that time, everyone joked that the grass husband was just a grass husband. Seeing them today makes them short-sighted.

People with outstanding appearance inevitably attract attention. Han Qiong is a man who understands it all too well, but this son-in-law used to pretend to be serious in front of him, completely indifferent to other people's appearance. Only now did he realize that it was not because he didn't look at others. , I haven't seen enough good-looking ones yet.

On the day of great joy, he didn't want to say some things that were too harsh, so he just said: "It's best not to make me look drunk and lose face."
