Great Imperial Merchant

Bai Xiaozhu glanced at him lightly, then pointed to the chair beside the table: "Weizhe, here you go, sit down."

Cheng Weizhe clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves, but with a smile on his face, he walked over and sat down firmly, and then said, "Long time no see, how are Second Uncle and Uncle doing?"

"Okay, we're all fine," Bai Xiaozhu smiled slightly. He stared at Cheng Weizhe seriously for a while, and then said, "Weizhe, why haven't you been home recently?"

Whether I will go home or not, the servant of the Cheng family must have inquired and told you clearly. What is there to ask?

Cheng Weizhe murmured in his heart, but replied seriously: "The shop is busy, and a friend passed away recently, so I don't have time to come back. Please worry about it, uncle."

Bai Xiaozhu nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Weizhe, what do you think about what uncle told you last time?"

Having said that, Cheng Weizhe knew what Bai Xiaozhu meant by calling him back, but he pretended not to understand, and asked doubtfully, "What's the matter?"

In fact, everyone in this family is smart except Cheng He.

Bai Xiaozhu knew that he knew what was in his heart, but he understood that people were pretending to be confused, and he didn't expose it. He still patiently said: "It's about my nephew. Yousu is really a good boy, with good knowledge and good character. He is very close to you." Good match. Wei Zhe, what are you going to do?"

When I was studying, the rumors were true, and my character was good... that's just what I showed.Cheng Weizhe thought he was "unworthy" of such a person, and he didn't want to provoke him at all.

"Uncle, I made it very clear last time. I have almost no impression of Si Shao and I, and I don't think we are very suitable. Today, since uncle brings up the old matter again, I will solemnly say that I do not agree with this I hope my uncle will be considerate about the matter of family marriage. It is better to make a marriage for the fourth young master as soon as possible."

Cheng Weizhe stood up, saluted Bai Xiaozhu solemnly, then straightened up, looked down at Bai Xiaozhu condescendingly.

Bai Xiaozhu didn't look up at him, and didn't give an answer right away, he just fumbled for the gilt rim of the teacup and remained silent.

The scene became tense for a moment, Cheng Weizhe didn't leave, and Bai Xiaozhu didn't speak.

With so many people in the Cheng family, the one Cheng Weizhe couldn't understand the most was actually Cheng Yao, followed by Bai Xiaozhu.But although Cheng Yao is not close to him, he has never done anything to harm him. His scheming and city government are dealing with enemies in the business field.

But Bai Xiaozhu is not like this.

So at this moment, although Cheng Weizhe was not very nervous, he couldn't relax either.When Bai Xiaozhu didn't speak, it looked like that. Cheng Weizhe didn't know if he was really angry.

In all fairness, if he were Bai Xiaozhu, he would definitely not want his own nephew to be with someone who has taken everything away from him.

Cheng Weizhe looked down at him, but Bai Xiaozhu was looking at the cup of tea.

After a long time, Bai Xiaozhu sighed: "Speaking of which, if you don't like Yousu, I'm also responsible."

Cheng Weizhe raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

"Your father has gone all these years, and I only cared about taking care of the young An'er. I didn't care much about you. You have opinions on me in your heart, and I have nothing to say."

Look, he is a young man with a weak crown, can't he care about the children in the main corner?These words seemed to be blaming himself, but in fact he picked himself out, Cheng Weizhe was the one who was wrong.

"Uncle, don't say that. I'm old enough to have my own business. The Cheng family is so big. Uncle has to worry about family and business, and Wei Zhe is worried that you are exhausted. I can take care of myself here. Well, don't worry too much about uncle."

Only then did Bai Xiaozhu raise his head and smiled, pointing to the chair: "Sit down and talk about what it looks like standing up."

Cheng Weizhe sat down, and without waiting for Bai Xiaozhu to speak, he said, "Uncle, I heard rumors that Fourth Young Master is a very ambitious young man. And I just want to spend my days in my tea shop. What he wants, I will I can't give it. He doesn't care about what I want. We are not the same way at all. I am very grateful to him for his kindness to me. I feel that I can't repay him. I also hope that my uncle will thank me for me and wish him another happy relationship as soon as possible."

What he said made him fall into the dust. He not only rejected Bai Yousu's marriage proposal, but even made a pretentious promise to Bai Xiaozhu.He just guarded the tea shop, and he didn't intend to get involved in everything in the Cheng family.

Bai Xiaozhu narrowed his eyes and turned to look at him.

Cheng Weizhe looked calm, he was telling the truth, and he didn't panic at all.

Bai Xiaozhu looked at him for a long time, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Hehe, Wei Zhe is still as stubborn as he was when he was a child. It's okay, I will refuse you for you. Wei Zhe, you have to remember , you are the eldest son of the Cheng family, don't belittle yourself any more."

Cheng Weizhe answered smoothly: "Uncle, I understand. Please take care of me. My nephew is very grateful."

Bai Xiaozhu nodded: "If you are not busy, come back and live more often, your father is quite lonely by himself."

lonely……?Are you talking about Cheng He?No, his father can't see him, and he won't miss him at all, but if he can't see his brother Kun for a day, then... I'm afraid he will be lonely!

"Uncle Lao is concerned, that nephew will leave now." Cheng Weizhe said, stood up and saluted him again.

Bai Xiaozhu waved his hand: "Go, go, you are all grown up, and you don't want to chat with us old people anymore."

Cheng Weizhe said "Where are the words" in his mouth, but he didn't stop on his feet, and left the main house in a moment.

After he left, Bai Xiaozhu turned his head and glanced at the free-spirited koi in the pond, and said calmly, "Still coming out?"

As soon as he finished speaking, another young man in white came out from behind the rockery, his face was full of anger.

"Little uncle, why is he like this? Rejecting so many times is simply looking down on our Bai family." Bai Yousu is always polite in front of outsiders, but Bai Xiaozhu is not an outsider, but his own uncle, so naturally he doesn't need to speak. So scruples.

Bai Xiaozhu glanced at him, and beckoned him to sit in front of him: "Good boy, our Bai family can't afford to beg him over and over again, besides, he has no ability after all, and he can't inherit such a big family business." , what are you doing."

Bai Yousu often came to Cheng's house when he was a child. Not only did he look the most like Bai Xiaozhu, he was also very good. He was proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.Therefore, Bai Xiaozhu also has a preference for him, and his attitude towards him is naturally much closer than Cheng Weizhe.

"But...Little Uncle, I really like him. Besides, he opened a tea shop by himself, and it's very good. Don't talk about him like that." Bai Yousu doesn't care what he says, but Bai Xiaozhu Cheng Weizhe was a little unhappy when he said this, and retorted softly.

Hearing this, Bai Xiaozhu's eyes flickered, and instead of focusing on Cheng Weizhe, he said, "You Su, you are the favorite child of this generation of uncles in the Bai family, so I naturally hope that you will have a beautiful marriage. You know more or less about the family affairs, there is actually no possibility between you and him, why are you so hard on yourself? Uncle will feel sorry for you. In Uncle's heart, you and Xiaoshu Xiaoan are both my children. "

Bai Yousu was very moved by his uncle's heart-pounding words. He took Bai Yousu's hand and said, "Little uncle, you are the best. If you are my biological father, that would be great."

Bai Xiaozhu smiled, stretched out his hand and patted his back, and said casually: "What's the problem? You grew up with Xiaoshu and have always had a very good relationship. If you get engaged to him, then it's true." Became uncle's son?"

Bai Yousu knew that Cheng Weishu liked him, and also knew that Cheng Weishu had told Cheng Weizhe, but he didn't know that Cheng Weishu had said it in front of the whole family.He only thought that what Bai Xiaozhu said was a joke, but he also felt embarrassed: "Little uncle, Wei Shu and I are good brothers, so don't make jokes."

Bai Xiaozhu stroked his hair, and said earnestly: "You Su, how can there be so many perfections in life, if the person everyone likes likes himself, how can there be so much resentment and hatred in the world? Uncle knows that you are pure in heart , In fact, your feelings for Weizhe are nothing more than admiration when you were young. Companion, we need to find someone who can accompany us and spend the rest of our life with us. If you think about it carefully, who will be with you is the most The right one?"

What he said was right, and Bai Yousu understood all these truths, but he was unwilling and dissatisfied.

In this world, only he rejects others, and there is no reason for others to reject him.Cheng Weizhe did this over and over again, and it even stimulated the darkest things in his heart, which he could never take back. "Little uncle... I know." Bai Yousu lowered his head and read softly.

Bai Xiaozhu patted him on the shoulder, and said in a very gentle tone: "Go, go and see if Xiaoshu has settled the accounts properly, good boy, just think about it carefully."

Bai Yousu got up, bent down and hugged Bai Xiaozhu's shoulder, then turned and left the main house.

After seeing off the two juniors one after another, Bai Xiaozhu gradually relaxed. He closed his eyes and raised his head to feel the beautiful autumn wind. After waiting for a while, he suddenly said, "Damn boy, how long do you want to hide?"

"Father, you are still the shrewdest." A young man in a light blue embroidered robe rushed out from behind the pavilion and ran to Bai Xiaozhu.

This person is indeed Cheng Weishu.

Bai Xiaozhu poured him a cup of tea, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and then said with a smile: "Did you hear that?"

Cheng Weishu's hand holding the teacup paused, his eyes drifted a little, and he didn't look at his father: "I heard..."

Bai Xiaozhu knew him well, and saw through his thoughts at a glance: "You, what's so awkward about this? Whom You Su likes now, it's just that he was young and ignorant. When he gets married to you, he will have a relationship with you. Son, you can only be the one who likes it. My son is so good, why worry about it?"

At this moment, Cheng Weishu completely lost the look of losing his temper with his father in such a rush, but behaved like the most obedient son: "Father... tell me, can Yousu agree to be engaged to me?"

Bai Xiaozhu smiled, his face full of determination: "You believe in dad, and dad can get you anything you want. Yousu is still young, so I talk to him more, and he will naturally figure it out. Yes. You remember to spend more time with him these days, he knows you are good, so naturally he won't miss your elder brother anymore. "

Cheng Weishu clenched his hands tightly, but said on his face, "I know dad. I will do well."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head away so that his father would not see his gloomy face.

When Bai Yousu said "I really like him", he was struck by lightning, but after a while, he regained consciousness.

All of this is Cheng Weizhe's fault. A good person like Bai Yousu must be confused by him, so he can't know people clearly.
