Transmigrated into Substitute Bride ‘Fu Lang’ - Chapter 128
Although Lianghua City is not big, it has always been a prosperous place because it is close to Kyoto and is also the main transportation route of various provinces.
In the past, the news circulating in Lianghua City was all the gossip that flowed in from the outside, or the little things that happened around you, but now the most interesting thing in Lianghua City is the Gu family who was once destroyed .
The only surviving only son of the Gu family not only returned as the master of the Juren, but also dealt with the Chen family and the Zhao family after marrying a husband, and took all the original property of the family. When he came back, he suddenly became the upstart in the city.
While everyone was talking about this matter, they also became interested in the son of the Gu family marrying a husband, especially when they knew that the son of the Gu family was taking back his original property and taking those All the property was handed over to his husband to do business, and after doing a good job, he became more interested in his husband.
Whether they are people in the city or outside the city, they are very curious about the Gu family husband, so after knowing that the husband and wife will often visit the store, these Curious people will go to the store to wait, just to see their husband and wife’s demeanor, which indirectly makes the store’s business much better.
A gentleman with pale skin and a face like Pan An.
When the little brother fell to the ground, he smiled at him lightly, took his hand, and then the two walked towards the building together.
Pedestrians not far away looked at the graceful appearance of the two and couldn’t help sighing, “Whose carriage is this, how can you get such a handsome son.”
The person next to him glanced at the two who had entered the store with Xiao Er’s compliment, and couldn’t help but sneered, “You don’t even know them both, they are here The famous husband of the Gu family in Lianghua City!”
When I heard the friend’s words, the person who asked the question couldn’t help but put on a bit of envy on his face, and sighed: “I heard about their big names, I just thought they were just famous, I don’t think so. Not so good. Now it seems that I underestimate them, they can really be called the dragon and the phoenix, no wonder they can take back the shop after avenging their father. “
“It’s not.” The friend glanced at the three-story restaurant, and his tone was full of envy, “What a difficult character to deal with, the master of the Zhao family! Not only did they make him confess his guilt, He also took back his family property and suddenly became a new rich, what an incredible thing!”
“Yeah, if only I could have such an adventure too, I’m not greedy, I don’t need to be as rich as the Zhao family, only they are a little rich.”
“I think you still dream faster.”
Covered by falling snow.
Gu Lang and Chen Xing, who had just entered the store, were greeted by the shopkeeper as soon as they entered the store, and then took them directly to the room reserved for them on the third floor.
The room is covered with thick carpets, and there is a charcoal fire that has been prepared for a long time. As soon as you enter the door, you can feel that the temperature in the store is much higher than outside.
Let’s call the kitchen to prepare something to eat later.”
Chen Xing thought of what he said before going out, looked at the shopkeeper who was still waiting for his answer, and said with a smile, “We want to eat hot pot later.”
Hearing the name, the shopkeeper’s face immediately raised a smile, nodded towards Chen Xing, and kept saying: “Okay, little boss, I understand. It’s just now We have a few more hot pots with soup base, I don’t know what the little boss wants.”
“Oh?” When Chen Xing heard the shopkeeper’s words, his eyes were a little surprised. This hot pot was the food he specially prepared when he saw that the weather was cold some time ago. , it is also very popular to sell in restaurants. I didn’t expect that in such a short period of time, the chefs in this store actually made inferences and made different flavors.
Suddenly, Chen Xing became interested, he turned to look at Gu Lang next to him, and said to him: “I’ll go to the kitchen to see this new soup base, how about you wait for me here? “
Gu Lang listened to Chen Xing’s words, nodded at him with a smile, and then said warmly: “Okay, it’s time to take a look at the account books around this time, you go!”
In general, it was still a little cold. Gu Lang was the most at ease when he could stay in the room. So, Chen Xing told Gu Lang two more words, telling him that it would be okay to read the ledger slowly, and that there was no shortage of time for them.
Gu Lang answered Chen Xing’s advice one by one, and then watched Chen Xing leave.
When Chen Xing followed the shopkeeper downstairs, the shopkeeper looked at Chen Xing and said with emotion: “The relationship between the little boss and the big boss is still so good!”
Chen Xing smiled and did not speak.
The shopkeeper did not speak any more, but respectfully led Chen Xing down.
, and the little Er was showing embarrassment at this time, it seemed that the guests in front of him had made some requests that he could not fulfill.
As the shopkeeper, seeing this situation, he naturally needs to go forward to mediate, but he seems to be scruples, he turns his head and glances at Chen Xing next to him, as if asking for help his opinion.
Chen Xing received the attention of the shopkeeper, waved his hand indifferently, and whispered: “Since it is a restaurant, naturally everything is based on the premise of serving customers, you go and ask what is going on. , I’ll just wait for you here.”
“Yes.” The shopkeeper responded in a low voice, then raised a smile and walked towards the young master.
The shopkeeper walked towards the young master, and after a few conversations, he didn’t know what the two of them said, but they saw them walking towards Chen Xing one after the other. come over.
Seeing this, Chen Xing guessed in his heart that this son was here to talk about cooperation or something.
Who knew that the young master came to Chen Xing, first bowed to Chen Xing, and then said politely: “This is the brother, my name is Zhao Huan, Gu Lang My old friend. I came here this time just to meet him, to catch up with him, and to ask my brother-in-law to show him the way.”
Hearing Zhao Huan’s self-introduction, Chen Xing looked at his figure and saw that his face was like a crown of jade, and he looked like a gentleman in brocade clothes and jade food, and he must not lie. necessary. Since he was Gu Lang’s old friend, Chen Xing felt that it would be okay for them to meet.
So, Chen Xing instructed the little Er who was standing beside him to bring someone up to chat with Gu Lang, and go to the kitchen as usual. After all, compared to their old friends, he is just a stranger, and it is not easy for them to talk when they go up.
Hearing Chen Xing’s arrangement, Zhao Huan didn’t know what the purpose was, he took a deep look at Chen Xing, then bowed again and followed the second upstairs.
Chen Xing only felt that the glance he looked at himself was a little inexplicable, with a lot of unspeakable things, like sighs and exclamations, and even more with some unspeakable confusion. The only thing that can make Chen Xing sure is that there is no maliciousness in the eyes of the man looking at him.
After knowing that he had no ill will towards him, Chen Xing also put this matter behind his head and gave an order to the shopkeeper next to him, and the two of them moved towards the back of the kitchen together. went.
Chen Xing also thought about sending someone up to ask Gu Lang later, whether his friends would eat with them or not, if his friends stayed for dinner, he would have to prepare more The dishes are good, and the guests who come from afar cannot be neglected.
Chen Xing went to the back of the kitchen, and in the eyes of everyone with sincerity, he first checked the hygiene of the kitchen, and after confirming that it was qualified, he went to exchange the new hot pot base with the chef.
And Zhao Huan had been led by Xiao Er to the room on the third floor. After Xiao Er knocked on the door and got the promise, he entered the room with Xiao Er.
Seeing Zhao Huan appearing here, Gu Lang’s face flashed with surprise again, and then it quickly dissipated, and then he let the little Er who was waiting beside him leave.
Zhao Huan watched Gu Lang’s movements, and also let the guards around him go out and wait, and stayed behind.
When only the two of them were left in the whole room, Zhao Huan said, “You will stay here for the rest of your life, and you are not allowed to go back?”
Gu Lang lifted his eyelids, looked up at him, closed the ledger in his hand, and said in a low voice: “What’s wrong with staying here, I can still take care of my body, now I don’t have anything If it’s missing, it’s just right to stay here to retire.”
The ill face was not good enough, and he immediately thought of the brother who went down just now, and said in a half-joking, half-sarcastic tone: “It seems that you have married a good husband!”
Gu Lang glanced at him sideways, but did not deny it.
Zhao Huan looked at his appearance and couldn’t help but tut his tongue in admiration and sighed: “You have a day to get married, when those famous ladies came to the door before, and I didn’t see any good looks on your face, I I thought you’d be alone forever.”
Gu Lang listened to the ridicule of his bad friend, and did not continue to answer, but changed the words and said lightly: “You came this time to talk nonsense? “
When Zhao Huan heard the words, he immediately made an expression that hurts my heart, how can you do this, and then put away the expression under Gu Lang’s stern eyes, and said embarrassingly: ” of course not.”
Gu Lang looked at his face, knew that there was something in his words, and said directly: “Why is that?”
Zhao Huan knew that his old friend was also a smart man. Even if he didn’t say it now, he would know what he meant by saying a few more words later. He simply stopped going around in circles and said directly. : “Of course I made another mistake, and then I wanted to come out to avoid the limelight, and then I just came to see you when I learned about you again.”
Gu Lang stared at him, obviously still waiting for his next words.
Zhao Huan raised his hands and said helplessly: “Of course, I think if I can persuade you to go back, my mistake may be written off.”
Hearing what he said, Gu Lang lowered his eyebrows, looked at the fox fur gloves Chen Xing had just made for himself, and said softly: “I won’t go back, I am now Had a good time.”
Zhao Huan shrugged, and there was no disappointment on his face, but with that cynical look, he said casually: “Before I came, I thought I might You persuaded to go back, but after coming here, I think it should be impossible for me, you really have a good life here.”
Gu Lang raised his eyes to look at him, both of them were smart people, and they understood each other’s thoughts the moment they looked at each other.
“Don’t worry, no one can force you to do what you don’t want to do. It’s just that if my brother is undecided about something, he may need your opinion.” Zhao Huan replied. .
Gu Lang nodded, he understood that this was already the biggest regression of that person, if he could live a peaceful life, it would be okay to agree to this trivial matter.
Zhao Huan nodded when he saw him, and then wanted to say something else, only to hear a knock on the door.
“The big boss, the little boss asked me to come up and ask.”
“In.”
Hearing Gu Lang’s order, Xiao Er immediately pushed open the door and walked in, first bowed to the two in the room, and then said what Chen Xing ordered.
“The little boss asked the little boss to ask the big boss if this young man wants to stay for lunch.”
Before Gu Lang could speak, Zhao Huan said in a familiar manner: “Of course I want it, but I heard that the food in Tianxianglou is very good, if you leave without a meal, why not? It’s not a waste of time.”
When the young man saw Zhao Huan say this, Gu Lang next to him did not refute, and immediately tacitly agreed that the big boss also agreed, so he continued: “The little boss also asked , do you have any dishes that you should not eat?”
Zhao Huan touched his chin and said with a smile: “There are no dishes that are taboo, but I can’t eat spicy food.”
“Okay, the little one is done asking, the little one will not bother the big boss and the son.”
Gu Lang raised his eyelids and did not answer his words.
Zhao Huan was not angry either, he seemed to be used to his behavior, and then he seemed to think of something, and he said: “Since I am running away from home, can I spend more time in your house? a few days.”
Gu Lang raised his eyes and looked at him coldly, just when Zhao Huan thought he would not agree, he only heard him say coldly: “Just be careful with your words, Chen Xing Now it’s just me being a man.”
Hearing Gu Lang’s words, Zhao Huan was stunned for a moment, then he covered his stomach and laughed, and couldn’t help complaining: “You, once a prime minister, are now dismissed with a mere jury. “
Seeing Zhao Huan’s smile becoming more and more wanton, Gu Lang’s face became more and more ugly.
At the end, Zhao Huan noticed something was wrong, and immediately stopped his laughter, made a surrender gesture towards him, and quickly said: “Well, I promise not to reveal your identity. ,do not worry.”
Just when Gu Lang wanted to say something, the knock on the door rang again, but this time it was the shopkeeper who had just left, “Big boss, little boss asked me to ask you, It’s almost time, can we eat now?”
Gu Lang squinted at Zhao Huan who was full of anticipation, then turned to face the people outside the door: “Get ready to eat!”
“Yes.”
After a while, all the meals were served one after another, and the most notable one was a hollow copper pot.
Looking at the white soup bubbling up around the copper pot, and the plates of thinly sliced vegetables and meat, Zhao Huan asked curiously, “What is this?”
Hearing his question, Chen Xing, who was instructing Xiao Er to put the dishes, took the time to reply, “This is a hot pot, put these dishes in this white soup and cook for a while, and then they will be fished out. Then dip it into your own dipping sauce, and it tastes great.”
Zhao Huan listened to the hot pot and dipping sauce, and felt very fresh, and under the guidance of Chen Xing, he also prepared a dipping water by himself.
Chen Xing only felt that this friend of Gu Lang, although he looked like a noble boy, had a good temper, and could not help but feel a little more favorable towards him.
Zhao Huan was eating when he saw Chen Xing put it in a small pot with warm water on a small stove, took out a small bottle soaked in it, opened the lid and took out Pour out a puff of pink liquid.
Smelling the tempting aroma, Zhao Huan’s eyes lit up again, looking at Chen Xing and asking: “What is this? Why do I smell a bit like wine, but it’s more than pure wine? Got a taste.”
Chen Xing looked at him curiously, and explained to him: “This is the fruit wine I brewed by myself. If the son likes it, when the son leaves, I will give the son a few pots.”
“Good.”
“No.”
Two tones sounded simultaneously.
Chen Xing turned his head to look at Gu Lang next to him, a little doubt in his eyes. He could see that Gu Lang should really like this son, otherwise he wouldn’t let him be so comfortable.
Received Chen Xing’s confused look, Gu Lang seemed a little reluctant, but still explained: “He wants to stay in our mansion for a few days.”
Since it’s not so fast to leave, then this wine can be delivered anytime.
So, Chen Xing said to Zhao Huan: “If that’s the case, then when you leave, I’ll give you a few more pots.”
“Okay, then it’s settled.”
Zhao Huan was very happy, because he felt that Gu Lang was unhappy about this, but for some reason, he could not stop it. Seeing that Gu Lang was so bored that he couldn’t say it, he really felt that he was out of breath for himself.
So that day, the three of them had a great meal. When they finally returned to the house, Zhao Huan went back with them, but when he entered the door, Zhao Huan ordered him to bring those The man went to find another place to live by himself, and only brought two personal guards into the mansion.
Chen Xing saw that Gu Lang and Zhao Huan were both taken for granted, so he didn’t say anything, just thought that they were such a habit.
Fortunately, after Chen Xing became rich, he consulted Gu Lang and renovated the dilapidated houses up and down the mansion, and also renovated the inconvenient bathrooms, toilets and other places according to modern places a moment.
Therefore, Zhao Huan did not make any inconvenience to the living conditions. What’s more, he felt that the layout here was too satisfactory. He studied all these things thoroughly on the first day he moved in, and he was very happy. He said that he would get one at home when he went back.
Chen Xing felt that although this young man looked rich, he still got along quite harmoniously. It’s just that he doesn’t quite know what this young master is doing. The relationship with Gu Lang seems strange, and he doesn’t know what the two of them are fiddling with every day. They are happy and angry.
No matter what, as long as it is time to eat, no matter what this young man is doing, he will always appear at the dinner table on time.
It’s just that different from the elation in the past, today’s Zhao Huan looks a little dejected, and he doesn’t even want to drink the shrimp porridge in front of him.
Chen Xing looked at him curiously, but was embarrassed to ask.
Gu Lang lifted his eyelids and asked coldly, “What’s wrong with you?”
Hearing Gu Lang’s question, Zhao Huan burst into tears and said, “I’m going back, I won’t be able to eat these delicious food anymore.”
Hearing Zhao Huan’s sad voice, Gu Lang just rolled his eyes and looked very disdainful.
Although Chen Xing didn’t know where he was going back, looking at his distressed appearance, he couldn’t help but think about it and said, “If Zhao Gongzi doesn’t dislike it, I’ll make it for you when you go back. How about a few jars of meat sauce?”
When Zhao Huan heard the words, his eyes lit up immediately, and he kept nodding his head.
Chen Xing smiled, Gu Lang rolled his eyes beside him.
The day Zhao Huan left, it was just before the beginning of spring, and green shoots had grown in many places on the road.
Chen Xing and Gu Lang sent Zhao Huan out of the city together.
Looking at the friend who was about to leave, Gu Lang’s expression was always light, it seemed that he would see each other soon after parting this time.
When it came time to leave the money, Zhao Huan rarely put away his usual stern look, and looked at Gu Lang with a stern look: “I think you understand why you don’t want to go back, I If I can live your life now, I don’t want to leave.”
Gu Lang looked at him coldly, and finally showed him a miserable smile.
Zhao Huan looked at Gu Lang’s slightly smug smile, endured and endured, and finally resisted the urge to beat him. In the end, as if thinking of something, he turned to look at Chen Xing who was standing not far away and looked at them, and shouted at him: “Brother, if there is a chance, I will come again, don’t despise me then! “After Chen Xing replied ‘OK’, Zhao Huan smoothly watched Gu Lang’s face turning black, so he happily got into the carriage, and under Gu Lang’s slightly menacing gaze, he thought leisurely that maybe When he comes next time, he can bring his brother with him.
Gu Lang sent Zhao Huan away with heavy eyes, then returned to Chen Xing’s side, then took his hand and said to him, “Let’s go back!”
Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang, who seemed unhappy, nodded, and said, “Well, we’ll go back and make sweet and sour fish later.”
“Good.”
I just didn’t wait for what Gu Lang was saying, only to hear Chen Xing, who was still eagerly talking about what to eat later, but at this time, he retched for no reason.
Gu Lang’s expressionless face immediately became anxious and asked him, “Are you alright?”
Chen Xing didn’t know what was wrong with him. He frowned and shook his head, muttering strangely, “It’s okay, it’s just a little uncomfortable for no reason.”
Listening to what he said, Gu Lang’s frowning did not loosen, but became even tighter, and then said: “We will go to the medical center first, after going to the doctor. Go back to the hall.”
“Okay.” Chen Xing had no objection to this, and a trip to the medical center would not delay anything.
What Chen Xing didn’t know was that this trip to the hospital brought him an unknown surprise and shock.
