The Landlord And His Wife - Chapter 120

    Shicheng, the young owner, wants to choose a hairpin, so the shopkeeper’s man naturally quickly takes out the best in the shop. Gold, jade, gemstone, placed three trays in front of Shaodong’s family, and Shaodong’s family waved: “You guys go out! We choose by ourselves.”

    The shopkeeper and the guy came out, the guy scratched his head and whispered to the shopkeeper: “The shopkeeper, do you think… the young master knows what it means to send hairpins to the girl’s house?”

      !”

    The guy laughed hehehe: “Don’t worry, the shopkeeper, who dares to chew the tongue of the young master?”

    Here, Liu Xuer touched her hair, and then accompanied Xiaoxiao with a smile and said to Shicheng: “Shicheng, my hair still can’t be put into a bun, isn’t it a waste to buy a hairpin?”

    Shi Cheng raised his eyes and glanced at her hair, and said, “Buy it and put it away, there will always be a time when it gets tangled!”

    Liu Xuer rolled her eyes, Shi Cheng pushed the plates over: “Choose it!”

    She looked down, then looked up at Shicheng: “But… these are not cheap, right? Do you really pay for it or just take it away? Why is it inappropriate? Let your parents know… “

    Shi Cheng’s face turned upside down again: “You can choose! You made me angry today and you forgot? Why are you worried about this? I’m so old, don’t I have any money? ? Of course, you pay to buy it. What’s wrong with giving you a gift? My parents still choose things in the shop to give gifts to others! Why can’t I?”

    Liu Xuer has nothing to say, okay, you are right! Give me something why don’t I want it? ! Thinking in my heart, I bowed my head and really chose. Shi Cheng snickered for a moment. In fact, he wasn’t angry anymore, but seeing Liu Xuer beside the saddle and the horse carefully coaxed himself… This feels really good!

    Although Liu Xuer didn’t want it, she was a girl after all. Seeing the dazzling array of hairpins, all of them were exquisite and unique, and they were so adorable that they couldn’t move their eyes away, so they chose them seriously. .

    Shi Cheng smiled and got up and went to pour water for the two of them. This is the second floor of the shop. Generally, if you have a customer, please come here and give the good things in the shop like this Serve it up and ask the guests to choose.

    Poured two cups of tea and brought it over, and saw that Liu Xuer had pushed one of the trays away, and only selected the two trays. The huge ruby ​​and sapphire were on top, and she knew in her heart that Xu’er still didn’t want to spend too much money, so she said: “I really don’t need to be too careful, there are people who give me gifts during the New Year and festivals, and I also give gifts in return, often here. take things.”

    Liu Xuer didn’t look up: “I know, not to save money… Those are not good-looking.”

    Shicheng laughed and could only put the tray aside.

      , After choosing for a long time, he picked up a butterfly flower hanging ear and put it on the emerald silver hairpin, and said with a smile, “Just this one!”

      Cui, although it’s silver, it’s really pretty. Shi Cheng laughed and said, “I don’t want to choose so many gold ones… but this one is pretty.”

    Liu Xuer pursed her lips and smiled, and asked again: “How much?” Just after asking, Shicheng looked at him again, smiled and said: “I remember, you gave it to me. .”

    But she really liked it. She held it and watched it for a long time, smiling, fearing that the tassels would fall off, she even took a handkerchief and wrapped it up before putting it in her own sachet.

    Shicheng was very satisfied to see that she paid such attention to her. The discomfort in the morning had already vanished. Went out for dinner with Liu Xuer, and also agreed with her that she would go to her shop to help during the day on the daughter’s day, and at night Liu Xuer would accompany him to set lotus lanterns by the water, so she happily sent her back to the shop .

    Shicheng was in a very good mood this day, and he didn’t know what he was humming into his door. As soon as he walked in, a servant came forward and bowed: “Master Are you back? The wife said that you should go to her place when you come back. Also, the master came back from Hanzhong Mansion in the middle of the night.”

    Shi Cheng agreed, then walked over to his parents and called out at the door, “Father, mother.” Only then did he lift the curtain and enter.

    His father was sitting on the chair at the top of the main room drinking tea, while his mother was sitting on the Arhat under the window, leaning on the cushion.

    Shi Cheng went up to salute the two of them, then sat down and asked, “Dad, how is the Hanzhong mansion?”

    Shi Qian nodded: “It’s still in progress, there may be some troubles, but it’s good, I also thought about it, there is no need to rush to the door, even if it is repaired for a few months, what is the harm, or Once everything is in order, it’s better to open the door. Otherwise, if there is a shortage of things when the door is opened, it’s not good to reorganize it after closing.”

    Shi Cheng nodded after listening: “That’s right, it’s the most appropriate to open the door after it’s rectified.”

    Father and son were talking here, Shi Chengniang coughed hard over there, interrupting the father and son’s conversation, Shicheng looked at his mother strangely, Shicheng father just pondered there .

    Shi Cheng looked at her mother for a while, and saw that she was only staring at her father, so she went to see her father again. “

    Father Shi Cheng pondered for a while and asked, “Shi Cheng, did you go to the shop today?”

    Shi Cheng nodded: “Yes, I also gave Xu’er a hairpin, even if it was a gift for her on the day after tomorrow!” He smiled: “I want to give money, fifteen taels of silver, I’ll call someone to deliver it in the afternoon.”

    Mother Shicheng didn’t speak, she just looked at Dad Shicheng, Dad Shicheng said in a deep voice: “Shicheng, you are not too young, there are some things I should tell you, men and women are not seated at the age of seven, This is the rule for thousands of years, although we are country people, but the country people pay more attention to ancient etiquette, you and Xu’er can’t be as careless as they were when they were young.”

    Shi Cheng nodded and didn’t speak for the time being. He told Xu’er before that he wanted to get married first. He hasn’t agreed yet, he has to get Xu’er’s consent first. It’s just that since his parents have spoken out today, he has to speak.

    Father Shi Cheng continued: “I also know that you and Liu Shu and the others grew up together, naturally they have different feelings from them, like Liu Shu and their brothers, they are like real brothers, and Xu Er Just like brothers and sisters, this is actually a good thing. In life, you really have to have a few brothers who are loyal and loyal. Then you will not be afraid of anything in the future! There will always be someone who will help you. Of course, if you make friends with them, you must also Sincerely, they have encountered difficulties, and you have to help with all your strength…”

    When Shi Chengniang heard it over there, why did the topic go over there again? He hurriedly interrupted and smiled and said, “Yes, Shicheng, your father is right, you and the Liu family are like brothers and sisters, but for Xu’er, don’t go too close in the future. , Xu’er is also a big girl, at the age of twelve or thirteen, someone has already started to propose marriage, if she knows that she has no scruples with you, it will also affect her reputation as a big girl.”

    Shi Cheng nodded and said: “Mother is right, father is right, if you still have no scruples with Xu’er, it will also affect her reputation, I also think about it, or else Go to propose a marriage first, and settle the marriage, so that you can feel at ease, and no one will gossip.”

    As soon as these words came out, Shicheng’s parents were all stupid! He stared at him dumbfounded.

    Shi Cheng stood up and walked around the house: “In fact, when I went to Hanzhong Mansion with her last time, I wanted to tell my parents when I came back, Xu’er may be in Hanzhong Mansion in the future. When opening a shop, I have to accompany those who come and go. If you don’t have a name, it will be inconvenient. Besides, Xu’er is a girl, and we have to respect their family, especially her parents. It is estimated that others will think about it. It’s not good to be so careless, just embarrassed to say me… So, the best way is to get married now!” After speaking, he looked up at his parents.

     Before Shi Cheng’s father could speak, Shi Cheng’s mother had already stood up and said anxiously: “What are you doing about this… I said why is your child so thoughtful? You are so sure of such a big thing. Talk to your parents in your tone? Are you sure we agree?”

    Shi Cheng looked at her in surprise: “Mother, you won’t agree? I thought it was… natural!”

    “What’s natural?! It’s natural as you said! Our family’s identity… No matter what I say, I don’t agree with this! I tell you, your relatives have a good idea, don’t think about three things Think about it, it’s not your turn to call the shots!”

    Shi Cheng smiled: “Mother, do you have a count? Who do you like?”

    “What I like…don’t tell you! The parents of the child’s marriage have always been in charge, and it is natural for you to be here! I tell you, my daughter-in-law, I have the final say!”

    Shi Cheng said: “Mother, what are you excited about? Your daughter-in-law, you have the final say, whether you marry your daughter-in-law or your son’s daughter-in-law? Just tell me, who do you fancy? , my son should weigh it too, otherwise, you just don’t agree with this matter, it’s so powerful… my son feels a little uncomfortable… I can’t even ask?” He also heard it, mother clearly liked it. Who, he has to ask!

    Shi Cheng’s words were relatively soft, and Shi Chengniang didn’t hear that he was already annoyed and ruthless, but Shi Cheng’s gentle tone set off she seemed to be overexcited. A little embarrassed, I leaned back on the cushion again.

    Father Shi Cheng has always valued this eldest son. The eldest son is steadfast in his work and active in his mind. He is very satisfied. He values ​​his son and cares about his words. After hearing what Shi Cheng said, Shi Qian also moved. Moved up, glanced at Shi Chengniang, coughed and said: “Your mother really liked a family for you, it doesn’t matter if you tell you, you have a good idea, next time you go to someone’s house, behave well …is the Hao family in Hanzhong Mansion, that second Hao girl, named Rongrong.”

    Shi Cheng had already quickly guessed a few people in his heart at this moment, including this Hao Rongrong, at this time listening to his father say it himself, he couldn’t help but sneer again and again!
