Transmigrated into Substitute Bride ‘Fu Lang’ - Chapter 83
Qiu Jiu looked at his son’s unpleasant expression, and he didn’t say anything more intelligently, and quietly retreated, while still silently remembering in his heart, his son doesn’t seem to like it very much The matter of the Miss Chen family.
After Qiu Jiu left, Gu Lang frowned in disgust when he thought of the woman who kept staring at him, which made him feel like he wanted to break down faster Chen’s footsteps.
No, he has to wait a little longer, he will double what he suffered, and cut the flesh with a dull knife, so that he can be worthy of those who harmed their Chen family and brought them down.
Just as Gu Lang was trying his best to restrain his irrationality, he suddenly smelled a familiar smell, and then his originally tight brows gradually loosened, turning his head to look beside him When Chen Xing came over with the dishes, there was even a smile on his face.
Chen Xing put the medicinal meal in his hand in front of Gu Lang, looked up at his face, and then asked uncertainly, “Gu Lang, did someone make you unhappy just now? ?”
Gu Lang was originally focused on what Chen Xing was holding, but he was stunned when he heard his words, then smiled and shook his head, and asked with a little curiosity : “What’s wrong? I didn’t.”
Now, he thought for a while and said: “If the guests are difficult, you can rest at home. There are Qiu Jiu and the others here, and there are so many helpers, we can handle it.”
When Gu Lang asked to come over to help at first, Chen Xing did not agree, but then Gu Lang moved out that his health was not good and needed to move around more, so he reluctantly agreed, and also Picked him a light counter job.
But even so, Chen Xing was still worried that Gu Lang’s body would not be able to take it. From time to time, he thought about some supplements for Gu Lang to eat, hoping that he would feel better after eating. Soup bowls are just that.
“Yo, little boss, what is this, why is it so delicious, I want to order one too.” A customer who came to check out looked straight at the counter. The stew of soup, the eyes are full of desire to taste a bite.
Chen Xing was a little embarrassed by his earnest eyes, and quietly took the stew and put it under the cabinet where the guests could not see.
The customer couldn’t help laughing when he saw Chen Xing’s flamboyant behavior. He is a regular customer in the store, so he didn’t have much scruples about talking to Chen Xing, he just laughed, “Little boss , even if you don’t give me food, it’s good for me to smell it, isn’t it too stingy to do this.”
Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing’s appearance, and then looked at the ignorant and staring guests in front of him, calmly stood in front of him, and said coldly: “Sorry, then It was made for me, not for sale.”
The guest was agitated by Gu Lang’s words, raised his eyes to meet Gu Lang’s indifferent expression, was shocked, and laughed shyly, “I don’t have to eat it, it just smells too fragrant. already.”
At this time, Chen Xing also felt that his avoidance posture was not good, he stuck out a head from Gu Lang’s back, looked at the guest and said, “Sorry, that is specially made for him. Yes, it’s probably not very suitable for others to eat.”
The guest looked at Chen Xing’s sudden head, and suddenly burst out laughing, “You guys are really in a good relationship!”
After finishing speaking, the guest looked up at the man in front of him who was staring blankly at him, and said earnestly: “The little boss is so good, you have to treat the little boss well!”
The guest felt a little embarrassed after speaking. He looked at the man in front of him embarrassedly, thinking that he would not get any answer. The person nodded and replied softly, “Yeah.”
The guest and the red-faced Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang at the same time, only to see Gu Lang under their eyes again, nodding solemnly towards them, and said solemnly: “I will.”
“Huh.” Chen Xing didn’t expect Gu Lang to answer like this. He thought that according to the character of taking care of Lang, he would not pay attention to such a boring question. He didn’t expect that he not only answered, but also answered so Solemnly.
Gu Lang seemed to sense the confusion in Chen Xing’s heart, lowered his eyebrows, and met Chen Xing’s doubtful eyes, he reached out and rubbed Chen Xing’s head, his eyes softly said: ” You are so good to me, and I should be good to you as well.”
Chen Xing’s face turned red all of a sudden, how could he think that when Gu Lang said these words now, it was too casual.
The guest next to them looked at each other while they were talking, completely ignoring their appearance, shook his head and sighed: “It’s so good to be young!” It reminded him of him When I was young with his wife. By the way, he will bring some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes to his old wife on the way home later, otherwise she will talk about it again.
The guests quietly left, but when Chen Linger and the others came out, they saw this picture. Against the backdrop of the street scene with people coming and going, it became a beautiful picture.
Chen Ling’er looked at this scene, looked at the gentle smile of the man who had never looked at her when staring at Chen Xing, and slowly clenched her fists.
Miss Zhou, who walked to Chen Linger’s side, noticed something was wrong with her, turned her head and looked at her straight ahead, followed her line of sight, and she also saw that In the second picture, I suddenly understood something, and the smile on my face became deeper and deeper.
Miss Zhou took Chen Linger’s arm and said to her warmly, “Linger, let’s go, we should go back.”
Tian didn’t pay attention to herself, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
“Hello, we have to settle the bill.” As the host this time, even if she came out to eat, it was still Miss Zhou who paid. She was not stingy, she came to the front desk generously, and directly stated her request.
Their arrival interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere between Chen Xing and Gu Lang, Gu Lang resumed his work mode at once, while Chen Xing wiped the table in a panic, pretending that he was just an ordinary Little two.
While Miss Zhou was waiting to settle accounts, she looked up at the accountant in front of her generously, looked at his handsome face, and sighed to herself that it was no wonder he was being watched by Chen Linger superior.
And Chen Linger, who was accompanied by Miss Zhou, looked at Gu Lang beside him. When he saw that he never glanced at him during the checkout, it was as if he hadn’t seen himself, and his heart was extremely depressed. She also considered herself a beauty, but she didn’t expect to be so unwelcoming.
It’s just that Gu Lang didn’t look at her, but Chen Linger looked at Gu Lang unscrupulously, she looked at him in a moon-white robe, with a long body and a handsome face, even if he was The humble restaurant also brings out a somewhat elegant taste.
But she is such a good-looking character with such common things, she thought so, her eyes could not help drifting towards Chen Xing next to Gu Lang, looking at his body because of convenience The coarse cloth that he put on specially for work, a bit of obvious disgust flashed in his eyes.
When Gu Lang put away the money that Miss Zhou gave and gave her the rest of the change, what he saw when he looked up was her contempt for Chen Xing. The corners of Gu Lang’s mouth pursed into a straight line, and the look in Chen Linger’s eyes began to look bad.
Until she was pulled out of the store by Miss Zhou and got on the carriage again, she still hadn’t recovered from the cold eyes she saw just now.
“Linger, what’s the matter with you?” Xu Shi Chen Linger’s abnormal behavior was too eye-catching. After the lady asked, the rest of the people in the car with her all looked at her .
“Ah?” Chen Linger was still thinking about the look Gu Lang had just looked at herself, she felt that she couldn’t understand why, and suddenly heard someone calling you, and you all recovered. Come on, look at them as if they didn’t hear them clearly, their eyes are full of confusion.
Seeing her unrepentant appearance, the rest of them glanced at each other, and finally the one who had a good time with her said, “Chen Linger, what’s the matter with you today, how do you feel about you? Have you been insane since you came out?”
“I, I don’t.” When Chen Linger heard her question, she was shocked and quickly shook her head in denial.
The young ladies looked at Chen Linger and wanted to ask something, but Miss Zhou interrupted their questioning and smiled gently, “Linger must have not slept well yesterday, so that’s why You are in a trance, so don’t ask. By the way, I just got a script a few days ago, I think it’s very interesting, do you want to listen? “
Miss Zhou’s remarks attracted the minds of those young ladies, and sure enough, after she finished speaking, the young ladies in the carriage said in unison, “Yes, please speak up. “
Miss Zhou didn’t take Qiao either. Seeing them so interested, she said directly: “The name of the storybook is Meiyuan Ji, and it is about a scholar who saved a drowning peasant when he was in despair. The woman, on the grounds that she touched her body, asked the scholar to marry her, and the scholar also married him under the pressure of his mother.
Who knows, that scholar went to high school in his third year of marriage and became the champion of the year. After he became the champion, when he went to appreciate plums with students from the same department, he met a rich lady who was also there to appreciate plums. The two fell in love at first sight and fell in love with each other.
The champion wanted to marry this young lady as his wife, but the wife at home did not agree, crying, making trouble, and hanging himself. In the end, the rich lady couldn’t stand it anymore, so she gave the village woman a sum of money to let her leave, which fulfilled the young lady and the champion. “
When everyone hears this, they always feel that there is something wrong with this story, but it seems that there is something wrong that cannot be told. So, they could only sit there and look at each other, not knowing what to say.
In the end, it was the little girl in the green dress who spoke first, “Sister Zhou, this story is so boring, why did the champion man fall in love with the rich lady, and that village woman will give way.”
Miss Zhou smiled and did not speak, but Miss Qian next to her said, “Originally, it was that village woman who threatened Shusheng for marriage, and then she met someone she liked, why can’t they be together. “
“If you want me to say, these stories are imagined by those poor scholars, in order to satisfy their fantasies.” Another young lady who looked a few years older spoke up, in a tone of voice With sarcasm: “If the peasant woman was not a peasant woman at first, but a rich lady, she would look at the poor scholar, and she would marry him? Even if she is married, the scholar at the back has become so prosperous, and dare to be so straightforward. Abandon her?”
As soon as her words came out, everyone in the carriage fell silent for a while, as if she felt that she had something to say.
“Sister Qin makes some sense, but there are also good men in this world!” The little girl in green retorted timidly.
The young lady called Sister Qin looked at the innocent little girl, poked her forehead with her slender fingers, and said in a serious tone, “Qing’er, don’t look too much. After reading the book, I feel that there are many infatuated men in the book, thinking that those poor scholars are good, and they are easily coaxed by others, if he changes his mind that day, there is no place for you to cry.”
“Sister Qin, don’t be ashamed of you saying this!” Qing’er blushed when she said that, pushing her arm coquettishly.
Sister Qin sneered and said unceremoniously: “Ashamed? What is there to be ashamed of? There are only us here, and there is nothing to say. What’s more, I am Treating you as a real sister, I told you these words.
If you want me to say, in a family like ours, it is the best to be the right match. If it’s not right for you, then pick one that you can handle, and even if he doesn’t like you, he will never dare to blame you for the rest of his life. “
, but still secretly agreed with her point of view in his heart. But soon, they talked about other topics.
Only Chen Linger, who was sitting in the corner silently, listening to Sister Qin’s words, always remembered her last sentence, “Choose one that you can handle, so that even if he doesn’t I love you, and I will never let you down.”
When she thought of these words, Gu Lang’s cold and indifferent face always appeared in front of Chen Linger’s eyes. expression.
“Miss, what’s the matter with you?” The maid who served her couldn’t help but ask aloud, seeing her dazed and unblinking.
Chen Linger smiled at her, “Go and help me to inquire about something secretly, remember to be careful and don’t attract attention.”
The maid looked at her lady’s serious face, nodded cautiously, and said seriously: “Miss, I will be careful.”
After the maid left, Chen Linger returned to her dressing table and looked at the jewelry on it, with a bit of calculation in her eyes.
After the maid left the lady’s room, after thinking about it, she first went to the kitchen to buy a chicken, then co-wrote a bottle of soju, and then came to the old lady who was in charge of the staff in the hospital. .
“
Pearl was not afraid of her, she picked up the roast chicken and shochu and shook it in front of her eyes, then looked at her and said, “Mummy helped me last time, I came to thank you specially Mammy’s.”
The mammy looked at those two things, her eyes lit up, and then her face became a little more eager, she waved to Pearl, and said, “You girl, Come here, what kind of wine do you bring! Hurry up and bring it to Mammy and let Mammy see what it tastes like.”
“Hey, mammy, I’ll fill it up for you.” Pearl opened the paper bag neatly, poured wine for mama, and then watched her eating with wind and clouds, and she was in a good mood. great.
After three rounds of wine, seeing the oily face of the old mama eating, Pearl said softly: “Mama, do you know what the master is doing recently?”
If anyone knows what is going on in this yard, it must be the old lady in front of her. Everything can’t escape her eyes. In addition, her son is also able to work in front of the master, so she knows many things.
But this mammy is also a tight-lipped, knowing that what dirty things are hidden in her heart, she is quietly thinking about her own affairs, only when she is drunk will she reveal a little bit . This is something that Pearl occasionally knocked out of her son’s mouth when she was drunk, but she didn’t expect it to be used this time.
As expected, after Pearl asked this sentence, the drunk old lady said dizzily: “Master? It’s a big business. If it can be done, our Chen family will not only have another shop, but my son can also become a shopkeeper.”
Pearl was a little confused when she heard these words, she pushed her to ask more clearly, who knew that she was going back and forth with these words, and she didn’t know what she was talking about, no more After asking a few questions, the mammy lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Listening to the loud snoring, Pearl felt a little sullen, but there was nothing she could do about this old man. I can only return to the lady with the information I have inquired, and tell them one by one.
After listening to the maid, Chen Linger rolled her eyes and sent the maid who was still a little nervous, thinking about what she said in her heart.
Chen Family Restaurant, Chen Xing, shop, expand business.
Chen Linger’s eyes lit up all of a sudden. With what she knew about her father, it was impossible for her father to look at Chen Xing’s booming business and not be moved. Since he was already moved, he must action. If her father takes action, the best outcome is that the Chen family restaurant belongs to their Chen family, and the worst outcome is that they can’t get anything, but it’s enough for Chen Xing and the others to drink a pot.
Thinking of this, Chen Linger’s first reaction was to stand up, to tell Gu Lang about this, and let him think of a way to avoid it. He will definitely be grateful to himself at that time, and treat himself differently
But then, Chen Linger thought of the sentence she heard on the carriage today, ‘Choose someone who can handle it, so even if he doesn’t like you, he will never dare to blame you’, Gu Lang’s caring look towards Chen Xing appeared in front of her eyes again.
When she thought of that look on her, Chen Linger felt that she should be happy. That’s right, he can wait until the small restaurant is gone, she can take back the manager of the restaurant and let Gu Lang break up with Chen Xing to marry her. Anyway, a brother like Chen Xing is neither a woman nor a good family like her. After Gu Lang married him, he would definitely forget Chen Xing’s brother. Moreover, even if her parents did not agree, she could use the fact that she wanted to marry her as a reason, and she didn’t believe her parents would not agree. What’s more, Chen Linger also felt that the reason why the restaurant was so prosperous must be due to Gu Lang’s credit. After all, the Gu family’s business was so big back then. Even if a dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse, there must be something hidden.
Chen Linger felt that as long as Gu Lang married her, she would not only help him keep the storefront, but also help him have children, he would definitely not disagree. As for the shameless bastard, she could give him a sum of money like the rich lady and let him go away. If he is still ignorant, she doesn’t mind using some other means to make him disappear.
Chen Xing, who didn’t know that he was being calculated, finally had a chance to breathe after several days of fiery business. So, he looked at his deposit box on this day and found that there was enough money accumulated in it, and he could even buy a smaller set of store doors after a while.
Just thinking of buying a shop, Chen Xing thought of what he had promised to give back to Gu Lang as a betrothal gift, and asked Gu Lang to give him the contract of selling himself. Thinking of this, he became entangled in an instant, reached out and scratched his head, always feeling that things were a bit strange, making him unable to deal with it all at once.
Just as Chen Xing was thinking about how to tell Gu Lang about repaying the money, there was a knock on the door outside his house, followed by a deep male voice, “Chen Xing ,May I come inside?”
Hearing Gu Lang’s voice, Chen Xing’s eyes lit up instantly, and there was a bit of joy in his voice that he hadn’t even noticed himself, “I’m here, come in!”
It was draped over his shoulders and floated slowly as he swayed.
Chen Xing’s eyes are very good, looking at him, he doesn’t care what he is doing to find him at this time, he immediately jumped up from the bed, and took the beside his special hair brush. The towel came to Gu Lang’s side, covered the hair that was still dripping with water vapor, looked at him and said with a slight reproach: “Why did you come out without drying it, you are not in good health, you are so easy to get sick. .”
Gu Lang was first taken aback by Chen Xing’s action, then watched him gently wipe his hair, as if he cherished more than himself, and suddenly smiled lightly, “It’s just a little bit of water vapor at the end, it’s fine.”
Chen Xing took the time to stare at him, obviously not agreeing with his statement.
Gu Lang looked at him angrily, but his heart was extraordinarily warm, he handed the box in front of him, and said warmly: “This thing should have been returned to you earlier, It’s just that I keep forgetting, but it’s not too late to think about it now.”
