Great Imperial Merchant

The voice seemed a little familiar, but also very strange. Yang Zhongyuan turned around suspiciously, but saw a face he hadn't seen for a long time.

Yang Zhongyuan sighed in his heart. He came to Cheng's family to attend the engagement banquet, but he was actually prepared in his heart.

That's right, the Cheng family and the Yang family have been neighbors for decades, and it would be unreasonable not to invite Yang Zhongshan.

Yang Zhongshan stood at the door, holding an exquisite brocade box in his hand, looking at Yang Zhongyuan with a complicated expression.

This younger brother, every time he sees him, seems to change his appearance, which makes people feel as if he has passed away.

Yang Zhongyuan took a deep breath, smiled at Yang Zhongshan, and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture.Cheng Weizhe stood behind him without saying a word.

He has been in Danluo and never left, so he naturally knows that the tall middle-aged man in front of him is Yang Zhongyuan's brother Yang Zhongshan.

Yang Zhongshan's eyes swept across Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan's face, he handed the brocade box to the doorman, then lifted the hem of his clothes, and slowly stepped over Cheng's high front teeth.

It was already bright now, and the three of them walked silently in the front garden of Cheng's house, and they could hear lively conversations coming from the main hall from a long distance away.

The Cheng family was full of guests that day.

Cheng Weizhe walked on Yang Zhongyuan's right hand side, and Yang Zhongshan walked on Yang Zhongyuan's left hand side, but the distance between him and the other two was a bit far, if you didn't observe carefully, you wouldn't think they were going the same way.

Coincidentally, all three of them walked very slowly and did not speak.

In fact, none of them knew what to say, especially Yang Zhongyuan.For this big brother, he has nothing to say now.

Yang Zhongshan saw that the garden was about to pass by, so he hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Zhongyuan, Uncle Quan... are you okay?"

"En. Fortunately, after taking the medicine, I can finally go to the ground." Yang Zhongyuan also replied in a low voice.

"That's good... that's good, Zhongyuan, are you having a hard time? If it's hard, brother..." Yang Zhongshan turned his head to look at his younger brother, and asked again after a long time.

It's just that his words didn't go on smoothly, Yang Zhongyuan said calmly: "No, brother, I'm fine."

Yang Zhongshan opened his mouth, he wanted to say something more, but Cheng Weizhe didn't give him this chance.

He suddenly changed his position to block Yang Zhongyuan behind him, clasped his fists to salute Yang Zhongshan, and said loudly: "Brother Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you at home?"

Yang Zhongshan was taken aback, turned his head and saw Cheng Yao and Cheng He coming out to welcome the guests hand in hand, so he could only swallow what he wanted to say, and forced a smile: "Everything is fine, everything is fine. Master Cheng, Uncle He, congratulations."

With this interruption, Yang Zhongshan was naturally welcomed into the room by Cheng Yao and Cheng He, leaving only Yang Zhongyuan and Cheng Weizhe standing outside the main hall.

"Xiao Yuan." Cheng Weizhe said suddenly.

"En?" Yang Zhongyuan looked up, looking at the delicate embroidery on his hairband.

Cheng Weizhe turned his head and said seriously: "In the future, we have to work hard to make money. When people see it, they will only ask 'so much money, how about spending it all?'?"

Yang Zhongyuan laughed out loud, he knew that Cheng Weizhe minded Yang Zhongshan asking him if his life was hard, so he patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, we can also answer 'too many, sleep on a cushion every day, Panic'."

Seeing him smile, Cheng Weizhe felt relieved. He was so focused on going back home to sneak out some of the family's things that he forgot that the Yang family would also be invited as guests.

He didn't do a good job in this matter, Cheng Weizhe silently made a bad note for himself, thinking that next time he must consider the matter thoroughly.

The two were talking, when Cheng Weizhe suddenly saw Cheng Weishu waving at him, Bai Yousu was wearing a cinnabar-colored dress, standing beside Cheng Weishu with a smug smile on his face.

Naturally, it was Cheng Weizhe who saw the pride, and I am afraid that what others saw was gentleness and happiness.

Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan looked at each other, cheered up, and walked forward with a smile: "Wei Shu, Fourth Young Master, congratulations." Yang Zhongyuan followed behind him with his head down, without saying a word.

His appearance stimulated Cheng Weishu even more. He was usually very conceited, but now he was completely deceived by Yang Zhongyuan's performance, and he didn't see any clues.He was full of thoughts that the big gift given to Bai Yousu later could be better completed.

"Thank you, big brother. Big brother and Boss Yang, please sit down." Cheng Weishu smiled brightly. He pointed to the two seats at the back of the main table and asked Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan to sit down.

Those two seats faced all the other guests and had a good view. If Cheng Weishu hadn't invited him to sit there, Cheng Weizhe would have thought that the Cheng family had taken the wrong medicine.

However, for Cheng Weishu, this matter is a bit intriguing.

Yang Zhongyuan was very involved in acting, and he was very penetrating. After hearing Cheng Weishu's words, he had a frightened expression on his face, and he even tugged Cheng Weizhe's clothes: "Let's find someone, find a corner and sit. "

Seeing him like this, Cheng Weishu exchanged a glance with Bai Yousu, both of them could see the unconcealable excitement and pride in each other's eyes.

Such a guy can't get on the stage at all, it really slaps Cheng Weizhe in the face.

Cheng Weizhe also cooperated with Yang Zhongyuan very much, he lowered his head and said softly: "It's okay, I'll accompany you, don't be afraid."

There were quite a few guests present. At this time, a small number of people heard the movement here and looked over curiously. Yang Zhongyuan seemed to be calmed by Cheng Weizhe, and seemed to want to avoid the eyes of those people, and moved very quickly. He ran to the main table, sat down on the seat, lowered his head and never raised it again.

Cheng Weizhe smiled helplessly at Cheng Weishu and Bai Yousu, and sat down with Yang Zhongyuan.

Because it was just an engagement, the Cheng family only invited the best-connected shops and neighbors. There were only four tables of banquets in the main room, and it was full of people in a short while.

Because the ceremony hadn't started yet, only melon and fruit snacks were placed on the table. Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan could keep a low profile as much as they could.The two of them got up early and hadn't eaten yet. When they saw the dim sum, they couldn't help but say that each of them grabbed a piece and started to eat it sullenly.

The food was placed on the table, and it was meant for people to eat. The two of them enjoyed their meal here, but the guests on the other side didn't mean it that way.

Many people naturally knew Cheng Weizhe. Before Cheng Weizhe left the Cheng family, many shopkeepers of their family and the owners of cooperative shops were very familiar with Cheng Weizhe.Seeing him like this now makes me feel a little sorry.

It turned out that the eldest grandson of the Cheng family was run on by the second house.It doesn't matter if you can't go back home, it doesn't seem to be doing well, it's really pitiful.

After Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan had eaten their fill, the auspicious time had just arrived, and the servants invited Cheng He and his wife and Bai Yousu's father to sit at the main seat, waiting for Mr. Xi to come over to exchange posts.

In fact, before getting engaged, the birthdays of the two people have already been matched, and part of the press ceremony has been exchanged first, it is for Najib.

The ceremony at the engagement banquet is nothing more than the two parties exchanging Geng Tie tokens, and then bowing down to their parents together, which is considered to be a formal marriage.Then Xi Gong took out the auspicious date of the wedding that had already been calculated and announced it to the relatives and friends present, and finally held a feast for the guests to express his gratitude.

Yang Zhongyuan and Cheng Weizhe had no interest in Cheng Weishu's engagement ceremony at all. During the process of bowing and kneeling, they kept their heads down, wrote on each other's legs with their fingers, and whispered.

After the long process of saluting was finally over, Xigong came up and raised his voice to announce the wedding day.Because there are no good days this year, the Bai family and the Cheng family don't want to rush to hold a wedding, so they have to wait until next February to have an auspicious day.

Hearing this date, Cheng Weizhe and the two were overjoyed. They had already left Danluo at that time, saving a sum of gift money, which is really gratifying.

After the auspicious date was announced, it was the banquet. Although the engagement banquet did not accept gift money, the Cheng family and the Bai family were not short of that money, and the banquet dishes were excellent.

Based on the principle of learning and having enough to eat, Yang Zhongyuan and Cheng Weizhe have not stopped talking since the four cold dishes were served on the table. They only sat at the main table with other relatives of the Cheng family and the Bai family, and the hosts were busy toasting. not here.

Cheng Wei'an, who was only ten years old, sat obediently in his seat, while earnestly eating, while looking up at Cheng Weizhe from time to time.

Cheng Weizhe liked him very much, and he had time to exchange dishes and tastes with Yang Zhongyuan, and occasionally had a few words with Cheng Wei'an.

In this way, a meal is comfortable to eat.

After the final staple food and soup were served, the guests gradually put down their chopsticks, either toasting each other, or chatting with the people sitting beside them. For a while, the main hall was even more lively than before .

Seeing that everyone was full, Cheng Weishu exchanged glances with Bai Yousu, took the initiative to walk in front of the main seat, and raised his voice: "Everyone, Weishu is engaged today, please trouble all uncles, brothers and brothers to come to congratulate, I am very grateful I grew up with Yousu since childhood, he is the person I have always admired, and now I am very happy to have such a good relationship, so I would like to toast a glass of wine and express my heart."

As soon as he finished speaking, the guests in the main room immediately shouted and started booing.

The more lively the happy event, the better, so everyone's booing made Cheng Weishu happier and more complacent: "Wei Shu thank you all, I have a good marriage now, and I feel happy and happy. It's just that after the happiness, I worry even more. My elder brother, he is older than me, and now my younger brother is married, leaving him alone, I am really worried."

After he finished speaking, he paused on purpose, and after the guests' eyes were all on Cheng Weizhe, he continued: "But this time he brought his partner. After I was really surprised, I felt relieved."

As soon as his words fell, there was a burst of discussion in the room, and countless eyes were like needles, piercing Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan, making Cheng Weizhe's face darken, and Yang Zhongyuan lowered his head in fear.

Their performance in this way undoubtedly confirmed Cheng Weishu's words.

I just heard him continue: "Actually, my elder brother only runs a small tea shop in the north, and finding a small noodle stall owner is considered a good match. I won't look down on him, and I hope everyone blesses them."

It can be said that his day was extremely beautiful, and he spoke a series of words very fluently. Bai Xiaozhu wanted to stop him, but it was already a bit late.

The guests present learned that Cheng Weizhe supported himself by running a tea shop, and found an equally ordinary young man. What they saw was not ridicule and contempt, but deep sympathy.

All of a sudden, the main hall fell silent without a sound.

At this extremely quiet moment, a low, trembling voice asked this sentence: "Why do we work hard to make money and support our families with our own hands, should we be looked down upon?"
