Transmigrated into Substitute Bride ‘Fu Lang’ - Chapter 100

    Master Chen looked at Steward Feng with astonishment on his face. He didn’t understand where the Chen family had provoked Mrs. Zhao. He had been chatting and laughing with his wife some time ago. What a contradiction.

    Steward Feng looked at Mr. Chen with a confused look, and for the sake of the money he just gave, he added, “Although I don’t know what happened, it seems that It has something to do with your fourth young lady, and Madam even lost her temper.”

    Master Chen’s heart was stunned for a while, he vaguely wanted to understand something, if it was really because of that, then it’s not surprising that the Zhao family’s actions are now.

    Master Chen didn’t say anything more, looked up at Steward Feng in front of him, and asked him to do his best to help him with a few words of kind words with Master Zhao, and then hurriedly left. If it was as he guessed, he felt that their Chen family must have completely offended the Zhao family this time, and he had to go back and think of a way.

    Feng butler looked at the back of Mr. Chen hurriedly leaving, tossed the heavy purse in his hand, raised his eyebrows lightly, and joked: “This Mr. Chen is willing to spend money Money, it’s a pity, I don’t know how to raise my daughter.”

    The first thing Mr. Chen did when he returned to the mansion was not to go to his study, but to go straight to Mrs. Chen’s inner courtyard.

    As soon as Mr. Chen entered the door, Mrs. Chen, who was sitting there checking the account book, immediately noticed his arrival, and immediately put the account book next to him, stood up and greeted him, seeing that his face was not very Looking good, he said softly, “Master, what’s wrong with you?”

    Master Chen raised his eyes to look at her, the coolness in his eyes made people flustered, only to hear him ask in a deep voice, “Have you met Mrs. Zhao during this time?”

    Mrs. Chen didn’t know why he suddenly asked such a question. Following his words, Mrs. Chen tried her best to recall, and suddenly thought of something, and her heart began to beat a little. She raised her eyes to look at Mr. Chen, The tone was a little unstable: “I really haven’t contacted Mrs. Zhao anymore during this period of time.”

    Master Chen slapped his thigh and felt that he had found the reason why the Zhao family suddenly changed his mind, and said in a panic, “As expected, it must be the Zhao family who learned of Chen Linger’s disfigurement from nowhere. The news has now stopped thinking about marriage with our family and ruined the cooperation with us.”

    Mrs. Chen naturally knows about cooperation. After all, if it is successful, their Chen family’s influence in this area will be even higher, and their stores can also expand. The lady’s weight will also be heavier. Hearing the news that the Zhao family was not cooperating with them, Madam Chen became anxious, looked at Master Chen and said, “Master, what can we do? The Zhao family can’t be so stingy, right? It’s already been negotiated. , how can you temporarily change your mind?”

    Master Chen became angry when he heard this, looked at Mrs. Chen and said, “It’s impossible, it’s impossible there, do you know how many people are watching this errand? If it wasn’t for Zhao Jiaer Young Master likes Linger and wants to be in-laws with my family, how could they give us this!

    Mrs. Chen listened to Mr. Chen’s words, she originally cared for her daughter’s disfigurement, but gradually she complained twice, she asked nervously: “There is no way to recover ?”

    Hearing her question, Mr. Chen’s eyes lit up immediately, and then he seemed to think of something, his eyes showed a bit of sternness, he raised his eyes and stared at Mrs. Chen, He said fiercely: “In this way, we will give Ling’er to the second son of Zhao as a concubine, so that no matter how dissatisfied the Zhao family is, we can help us for the sake of our knowledge.”

    “Yes, but Ling’er is our daughter-in-law, how can she be someone else’s concubine?” Although Mrs. Chen was a little annoyed at Chen Ling’er, she still heard what Mr. Chen said. Disagree.

      Originally, Chen Linger was unwilling to marry that second son of the Zhao family, but now she wants her to be that concubine, how could she be willing to do it! ?

    Master Chen just sneered and said coldly: “Now that she is disfigured, it is one thing for the second young master of the Zhao family to want her, and she has nothing to choose from. It’s hard to keep her in the mansion and let us support her for a lifetime.”

    Mrs. Chen really wanted to say that such a proposal was okay, but when she raised her eyes to meet Master Chen’s gaze, she knew that those were all her own wishful thinking, and Master Chen would not agree.

    Mr. Chen looked at the mute Mrs. Chen, knowing that she understood her words, and continued: “Don’t say anything during this time, I will send her over when I arrange it, So that there will be no more troubles.”

     “Yes.” Mrs. Chen lowered her head and responded, already compromising with Master Chen’s arrangement.

    The man watched for a while, and when there was no more voice in the room, she walked out from the corner and walked towards her yard.

      I’ve heard it clearly.”

    “Say.”

      That wild boar did a whole pig feast as a gimmick, and now his family is more famous and his business is getting better and better.”

    “Waste!” With a roar, a porcelain cup slammed over and hit the maid’s forehead, followed by a crackling sound, “It’s all a bunch of trash. , they have already achieved this level, and they even brought them back to life!”

    For a while, only Chen Linger’s frantic voice was left in the room.

    Since her young lady woke up and found herself disfigured, this happened from time to time, and the maids were used to it. The little maids standing beside them were quiet, for fear of making a little noise that would offend their young lady and cause disaster. The maid who followed the young lady out that day was shaved by the young lady after she woke up and kicked out.

    Chen Linger smashed in the house like crazy for a while, and finally couldn’t smash it. She sat panting in the mess, her face covered by half veils only showed a pair of eyes, It was full of hatred right now.

      As for herself, because of her disfigurement, this home is no longer her home, and she has to be given away by her father as a bargaining chip for business.

    Thinking of this, Chen Linger’s eyes gradually showed a bit of ruthlessness. She turned her head sharply, looked at the little girl who was still standing there and didn’t dare to go down, and said fiercely: “Help me prepare something, be careful. If anyone else knows, be careful with your tongue.”

    In the middle of the night, the night market has just closed, and there are still pedestrians returning home in twos and threes.

    “Miss, this?” One of the female voices whispered towards the person beside her, her eyes full of fear.

      Is your skill the best? If you can’t get in, I’ll sell you when I go back.”

    The man was stared at by Chen Linger’s fierce eyes, and he didn’t dare to say anything more, he could only nod his head desperately, making sure that he would do as she said.

    Chen Linger looked at her, nodded with satisfaction, then opened the simple wooden ladder she brought, and ordered to the man: “Hurry up, step on this and climb in.”

    The person did as she said, but due to height restrictions, it was still a little short.

      His shoulders climbed up the wall, and when he finally went up, he kicked hard, and the person who used it as a foot ladder fell to the ground at once.

    Chen Linger rode on the wall and looked at the people lying on the ground, and reprimanded in a low voice: “Trash! You can’t do this well.”

    After finishing speaking, Chen Linger hung one end of the string on the corner of the wall, and pulled the other side down with the corner.

    The man lying on the ground took a long time to get up, rubbing his sore body, staring at the direction where Chen Linger was leaving, his eyes full of anxiety.

    In less than a quarter of an hour, a little light gradually appeared inside.

      There are also burn marks.

    “Miss, you.” The man was stunned. Although he had expected it, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.

    Chen Linger was flustered. Although it was not the first time for her to do such a thing, she did not do it so much last time. Seeing that the maid she brought with her was so flustered, she immediately scolded in a low voice, “Shut up and go.”

    The maid hurriedly closed her mouth, daring not to say another word.

    Chen Linger took the things in her hand and walked with the little girl towards the river not far away. When she got to the river, she threw the thing in her hand towards the center of the river.

    After she had cleaned herself up to look like a rich lady in the past, she took her maid back, and on the way back, she whispered: “You didn’t see anything today. , you didn’t do anything. If you dare to reveal half a word, I’ll pull out your tongue and sell it.”

    Hearing the intimidation of her young lady, the maid nodded again and again, assuring that she didn’t see anything and did nothing today.

      Come, I want to pull Chen Linger, “Miss, it’s been a long night, it’s not safe for you to walk alone at night, I’ll take you back!”

    Chen Linger felt that she could smell the wine stench on their bodies from far away, she vigorously threw her sleeves, trying to break free and he held her hand, “Let go, be careful I’ll call someone You get caught.”

    “Yo, Miss is still a temperamental one.” Hearing Chen Linger’s voice, the little hooligan became more and more excited, looking at the veil on her face even more, he said rudely : “Miss, the face under the veil must be extremely beautiful, let’s take a look.”

    Hearing what he said, Chen Linger panicked and hurriedly pulled her veil, for fear of letting him tear it off.

      I saw that the face under the veil did not know how it was injured, and it was covered with small traces. Under the flickering candlelight, it looked a little more terrifying.

    Seeing that this villain was frightened by her face, Chen Linger immediately grieved and glared at him, pulled out her hand, and ran towards the Chen house quickly. Seeing this, the little girl behind her immediately followed.

    As soon as he finished speaking, his brother’s voice came, “I don’t know, but it’s a woman! It’s not the same when the lights are turned off.” After speaking, he laughed ambiguously, Showing a look that knows each other well, the other people around him also started to coax.

    The little hooligan came back to his senses, and started a joke with his brothers.

    Just when a few people were talking and laughing and trying to rush to the next wine party, they suddenly heard a shout from not far away, “Get out of the water, get out of the water, come here soon. Ah! Come and put out the fire!”

    They looked up following the sound, and saw that the backyard of a shop was less than 100 meters away.

      Shashu shook his head.

    Chen Xing was lying on the bed at this time, rolling in the soft quilt, then staring at the bed curtains and thinking carefully, thinking about what their restaurant would do in a few days to sell.

    After their wild boars were sold out, they immediately connected to the medicated diet made of venison, and the result was also well received by everyone, especially those who were not bad money owners. Buying a cup or a few cups, it is estimated that the remaining venison will not last long.

    But what makes Chen Xing the most happy is that he doesn’t know if his food supplements are effective, or if Gu Lang moves a lot now, which makes his body much better. Even though the weather is more erratic now, Gu Lang didn’t cough or get sick like he used to.

    Chen Xing felt that this supplement was really effective, and he couldn’t stop in the future. It’s just that he feels that while making up, he should also pay attention to supervising Gu Lang’s exercise, so that he can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

    After calculating these, Chen Xing was ready to meet Zhou Gong with the quilt. When he woke up, he had to start a busy day again.

    But the second Chen Xing closed his eyes, someone knocked on his door from outside, followed by Qiu Jiu’s flustered voice, “Little boss, There’s water in the store.”

      He pulled it away, looked at the person outside, and asked anxiously, “What happened?”

    “The store is flooded.” Qiu Jiu repeated what he just said.

    Chen Xing was taken aback and said quickly, “Let’s go over and take a look.”

    Speaking, Chen Xing hurriedly put on his clothes and left in a hurry, after taking two steps, he turned around and said to Qiu Jiu: “Let’s go over there. Now, if Gu Lang is not well, don’t call him.”

    Qiu Jiu hesitated for a moment, then looked at Chen Xing’s firm eyes and nodded obediently.

    After the two hurriedly left, another room not far from Chen Xing’s house was opened from the inside, and then a slender figure walked out slowly.

    The visitor was wearing a coat and stood at the threshold, his handsome face seemed a bit unreal under the moonlight, and he looked deserted and not like a real person. After a while, he said towards the dark space: “What happened?”

    Sometimes a man in black came to Gu Lang quietly, and whispered to him: “The Chen family restaurant is on fire.”

    Gu Lang’s eyes narrowed slightly, Chen Xing was busy in the restaurant on weekdays, he knew what this small restaurant meant to Chen Xing, this is what he has always been The hard work earned, so the tone became a little colder, and he said lightly: “Go check, who did it.”

    “Yes.”

    After the man left as quietly as when he came, Gu Lang stared in the direction of the courtyard door for a while, then turned back to the room.

    After a stick of incense, Gu Lang had changed into a black long gown and a cloak. walked over slowly.

    When Chen Xing followed Qiu Jiu to his restaurant, the fire had been put out.

    The officer in charge of the curfew was also the patrol team leader who found the fire and asked for help. Looking at Chen Xing, who rushed over in a hurry with an anxious expression, he comforted: “Don’t worry, because you found it. In time, the fire is not big, plus we have a lot of people, the fire has been put out.”

    When Chen Xing heard his words, his heart was instantly relieved, and he said sincerely, “Thank you.”

    Afterwards, Chen Xing saw the officers and soldiers who were a little embarrassed because they helped put out the fire not far away, as if thinking of something, they quickly took out the sleeves, and finally took out He took out an exquisite purse, poured out a tael of silver from it and handed it to the official. He smiled at him and said, “It’s been a lot of work in the middle of the night, all the officials. For this small amount of money, I’ll ask the official to accept it, and others. The official has a sip of hot wine.”

    The patrol team leader was originally instructed to take care of this small shop. Seeing that this little boss is so knowledgeable now, I feel a little more comfortable in my heart.

    He smiled at the little boss in front of him and continued: “Since the little boss is so attentive, then I will thank you for the brothers. We still have tasks to do, so we won’t stay. The little boss also went to see if there was any loss in it.”

    “Thank you.”

    Watching the team leader and his team members leave, Chen Xingcai looked at the shop in front of him that was a little embarrassed, sighed deeply, and then walked towards him with some psychological preparation. walked inside.

    When Chen Xing turned around the restaurant, he finally let go of his last breath. Most of the fire was in the kitchen at the back, and most of the things inside were no longer usable. They would need to be replaced tomorrow. Fortunately, the important ingredients kept there were in large jars, so there was not much loss.

      , let out a long breath.

    “How can this be on fire?” Chen Xing stared at the mess in the yard, and asked in confusion, “I obviously check the inside every time I leave. The fire, make sure it’s out before leaving.”

    Because Chen Xing knew that ancient buildings were mostly made of wood, he was very careful about the use of fire. When he was still decorating, he chose some stones to build the kitchen, and even put A lot of water tanks are used, the purpose is to effectively isolate the fire source.

     Qiu Jiu stood beside him, scratching his head, not knowing how to answer. In the end, he still hesitated and said, “Little boss, could it be artificial?”

    Chen Xing raised his head sharply and looked straight at Qiu Jiu. He felt that Qiu Jiu seemed to be right. The fire was strange. After all, he only left after turning off the fire every day. There may be flames present.

    And this time, if the officers and soldiers of the inspection team just happened to pass by, their restaurant must have been burnt out. It’s just that even if it’s artificial, Chen Xing feels that they also need evidence. Only when they get the evidence can they say it’s a fact.

    Just as Chen Xing was frowning and thinking about how to find evidence, another figure came out of the door. He looked up and saw that Gu Lang had come over at this time. He was holding a lantern and looking at himself.

    The moment he saw himself, Chen Xing clearly felt that Gu Lang smiled, and then he saw Gu Lang walking slowly, and then shook the cape he was holding in his hand opened, and then draped it over him.

    “It’s cold at night, why don’t you wear more clothes before going out?”

    After hearing what Gu Lang said, Chen Xing felt a little bad. After sneezing, he looked at the man in front of him, and said in confusion, “Why are you here?”

    Gu Lang looked around, saw the burnt marks, frowned slightly, lowered his head to meet Chen Xing’s confused eyes, and replied slowly: “I listen There was a noise outside, I couldn’t find you or Qiu Jiu when I woke up. After thinking about it for a while, I thought you should have come here, so I found it. Fortunately, my guess was correct, and you were indeed there. here.”
