Chapter 17 Marriage Letter
The young scholar is not very old, about fifteen or sixteen years old. In the eyes of the adult Yu Qingzhi, he is just a cute younger brother and has no other ideas.
Therefore, Yu Qingzhi didn't expect that this little scholar would have ideas about him and just think that he was doing good deeds.
She thanked the little scholar repeatedly, "Then I thank you little boy. I haven't asked what your surname is. Whether this is successful or not, I will come to thank you in the future."
"My surname is Zhang, my name is Zhang Cheng, my courtesy name is Ziqi, and I live..."
Before Mr. Zhang could speak, he was interrupted by Hu Lu after he finished speaking.
Hu Lu brought a bowl of hawthorn drink and smiled and said, "Oh, Mr. Zhang is here again! I have prepared the newly released hawthorn drink for you, you can try it."
Since the last time he borrowed the ink of the charter, Hu Lu has been particularly attentive to him, and neither Yu Qingzhi nor the charter felt anything wrong.
It’s just a pity that Zhang Cheng is in his heart. This shopkeeper Yu is really different from others. He is decisive and generous in his work and can protect his family.
In the eyes of Mr. Zhang, this is simply a hero among girls. Even if she already has a husband, she couldn't help but want to say a few more words to her.
Yu Qingzhi was completely unaware of her unintentional actions, which actually touched the heart of a young scholar. She was taking the hawthorn drink handed to her by Hu Lu, and bought two bowls to give to He Wanyue and Erni, and then said goodbye to the same charter as the charter.
She walked very fast, and even with two bowls of drinks in her hand, she brought a gust of fragrance in her actions.
Zhang Cheng seemed to have been caught in the direction of Yu Qingzhi leaving, until Hu Lu snapped his finger and called him back to his senses.
"What are you looking at when Mr. Zhang?" Hu Lu smiled and made him a bowl of hawthorn drink.
"No, nothing." Zhang Cheng refused Hu Lu and said, "I borrowed pen and ink just a little bit. I have been drinking for a few days in a row, and then I don't have to give it to me anymore if I go to the shopkeeper."
"I know that the young master is a good person. You can even put me, a drink seller, think about me, for me. Why can't you think about Manager Yu?"
Hu Lu said it lightly, and no one else heard it except him and the Regulations, but it still made the Regulations blush.
"I don't……"
Before Mr. Zhang could speak, Hu Lu interrupted him, pretending to be drunk and said, "Shopkeeper Yu opened a shop by his own woman and offended the man surnamed Zhou. I don't know how many eyes are staring at him. Mr. Yu is kind to me, so I dare not come forward to talk to her, for fear of ruining his reputation. Mr. Zhang is a good person, so he must know those old sayings, right?"
The Regulations were blushed when he said it, but not because of shyness, but because of guilt.
After standing next to Hu Lu's stall for a long time, Zhang Cheng left in a daze. He didn't even notice that Hu Lu stuffed a bamboo can of drinks into his bookcase.
When he returned to the academy, he thought of what Manager Yu asked about him. He spent two days asking about He Lancheng and got some information. He ran to the mountain chief's study and said good things to him.
The statute of association has good academic performance and is well received in the academy. The mountain leader Lu Jinyuan likes him quite a lot.
Therefore, when he heard the Regulations recommend a child to me, he instinctively felt that the child was a good person.
When he heard him say that the child's family was all righteous, Lu Jinyuan stroked his beard and smiled: "Ziqi spoke for him like this, but I was worried that I would make things difficult for the child?"
"I heard that he is only eight years old and has never studied before. He has been taking care of his sister at home. If the chief really wants to teach him, he can relax it appropriately." Zhang Cheng said blushing.
"Your heart is good, but you shouldn't do this when doing academic research. Just rest assured. If he is suitable for going up the mountain academy, even if you don't say good things for him, I will consider accepting him as appropriate." Lu Jinyuan comforted him.
This is also a guarantee.
After getting the correct words of the mountain leader, Zhang Cheng found an opportunity to run down the mountain, found Hu Lu, and asked Hu Lu to call Yu Qingzhi.
Seeing that he had too many rules this time, Hu Lu did not reject him. He was right next to his own stall, and even if he talked, others would not misunderstand it.
As soon as he saw Yu Qingzhi, Zhang Cheng blushed again, and he mustered up the courage to pass the words of the mountain chief to her, and then said, "If Young Master He is suitable, the mountain chief will definitely accept him!"
Yu Qingzhi didn't expect that he just said casually, and Zhang Cheng helped him so much. Xing's eyes were full of surprise and thanked him again.
But I really didn't know how to thank him, so I said, "I don't know how to repay Mr. Zhang's great kindness. It's better for our Chenshui Incense Shop to make a fragrance for Mr. Zhang. This fragrance is only given to Mr. Zhang, and no one else will sell it. My husband is a good incense master, and it will definitely satisfy the young master. What do you think?"
At first, when I heard about the incense, Zhang Cheng's face was a little rosy, but when I heard that the person who wanted to make incense for him was actually the husband of Manager Yu, and the charming thoughts in his heart disappeared completely.
Faced with Yu Qingzhi's inquiry, Yancheng could only say yes awkwardly.
She noticed something strange, and Zhang Cheng hurriedly added: "Actually, there is no need to thank you, it's just a slight effort."
"I want to thank you, I want to thank you." Yu Qingzhi narrowed his eyes and smiled like a jade, "In this way, I won't bother the young master. I will wait until the incense is ready another day, and I will ask the young master to give it a try."
After saying that, he did not give the chance to refuse the statute of association, Yu Qingzhi turned around and left, returned to the village shop, and told He Wanyue and Erni the good news.
Hearing that he wanted to make a fragrance, He Wanyue thanked the young master, he hesitated: "If you want to make an fragrance, you have to know what the owner of the fragrance likes. Now we don't know that young master, so it's best to ask questions and then do it."
Yu Qingzhi is not a master of incense making. She just wanted to thank her and forgot such an important thing. However, she was not in a hurry to see her in the future.
What she is anxious about right now is another thing.
"The young master Zhang said that the Shangshan Academy no longer accepts students. If you still want to enter the school, you can only go to the mountain chief. But I don't even know the surname of the mountain chief. Where can I go to find it?" Yu Qingzhi said with a frown.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, my brother has already inquired about it last year. If it weren't for the fact that he had no money to pay Shu Xiu in the end, Acheng would have been a student of Shangshan Academy now." He Wanyue sold his brother out again.
Yu Qingzhi was happy when she heard this. She closed the store early in the evening and went back to discuss the matter with He Lianjun.
The production of incense is a little more complicated. He Lianjun took the initiative to take charge of this matter, making incense at night and selling incense during the day, which can be said to get up early and go to bed late.
Yu Qingzhi came to him while he was making incense and asked him about the mountain leader of the mountain academy.
"Listen to the words of that young master Zhang, he had already told the mountain leader about Acheng's situation. As long as you have the opportunity to meet the mountain leader, you will definitely be able to enter the school."
I have to admit that the words of the charter brought great encouragement to Yu Qingzhi. She is now imagining what Acheng looks like when wearing the student uniform of Shangshan Academy.
But she was so fascinated that she didn't notice that He Lianjun beside her was silent.
When she came back to her senses and realized that the people around her were too quiet, He Lianjun's face was as dark as water, and his face was so dark that it could no longer be dark.
Yu Qingzhi hurriedly asked with concern: "My husband, is there a problem with the shop?"
"No." He Lianjun shook his head and denied.
But it is very problematic to say that he does not have these two words.
"If there is really no problem, you will only shake your head, not say there is no." Yu Qingzhi put down the mold in his hand, walked to him and held his hand, "You and I are husband and wife, can't you tell me what's wrong?"
Although she and He Lianjun had no wedding and banquets, in the eyes of outsiders, she was He Lianjun's wife.
And at least now, she has no intention of breaking away from this identity.
She looked at He Lianjun quietly, her eyes clear and calm, without any concealment.
But He Lianjun didn't dare to look at her.
He couldn't figure it out, even though they were obviously husband and wife, why didn't he dare to look at her?
After a long time, he said in a muffled voice: "Actually, you and I have not worshipped the world yet, so I can't be considered a husband and wife, if you..."
"Dong!"
"Bang--"
Before he could finish speaking, he heard the sound of two heavy objects falling to the ground behind him.
He Lianjun turned around and saw the stick in He Lancheng's hand used to smash incense to pour it fell to the ground, and the iron sheet of incense rubbing in He Wanyue's hand next to him also fell to the ground. Both of them were staring at him in amazement.
The first person to come to his senses was He Wanyue.
When she heard He Lianjun's words just now, her eyes turned red. She slowly picked up the iron sheet on the ground and put it aside. She walked to her brother and asked, "Do you plan to not have your sister-in-law?"
"No……"
"Why did the elder brother say that just now?" He Lancheng picked up the hammer and angrily hit the side, "I can hear it clearly. Brother, don't say I heard it wrong!"
When the elder brother was such an ungrateful person, the two young men were almost angry.
"You are so excited, so listen to me finish my words first." He Lianjun said and rubbed his eyebrows. "Your sister-in-law and I have not held a banquet, nor have we worshipped the world. We are not a real couple, so if your sister-in-law is willing, we have to find some time to make up for it."
He Wanyue was relieved after hearing what he said, "Our family is rich, and then set up a few more tables so that everyone knows that my brother and sister-in-law are getting married!"
"At that time, I will pack the largest firecrackers in the entire town, and I will go there in person!" He Lancheng said excitedly.
"There are also three books and six rites. Your sister-in-law is not the daughter of the Yu family now, but she cannot get married from our family." He Lianjun added on the side.
"I think Uncle Li's family is good, he will definitely be willing..."
...
Yu Qingzhi watched them discussing passionately, angry and laughed, and gently tapped the iron sheet with a stick.
"Did you forget to ask me what I mean?"
The three of them looked up at the same time, and their eyes widened?
He Lianjun showed disappointment and asked in a deep voice: "Don't you want to?"
"I do, but..."
"Since my sister-in-law is willing, I don't want it." He Wanyue stepped forward and held her hand. "My sister-in-law is such a good person. If my brother doesn't marry him home earlier, I'm not relieved."
Yu Qingzhi spoke again: "But Acheng went to the academy..."
"It is important to ask my brother to marry my sister-in-law home first. Even if I go to the academy now, I have missed this year's schoolwork, so it's not a big deal." He Lancheng said seriously.
So Yu Qingzhi watched them discuss their wedding with great enthusiasm under the clear moonlight, and the client was left aside.
She was a little amused, but she didn't take it seriously, just pretending that they were on a whim.
It was not until three days later that she asked about Lu Jinyuan from the incense shop and returned home that He Lianjun took out an embroidered wedding book that Yu Qingzhi was stunned.
The wedding book was made of bright red silk as the base, embroidered with gold thread on her and He Lianjun's birthday horoscope, and there were also auspicious words embroidered with standard hairpins and small regular scripts on the side.
"...The good marriage is established, and the good gifts are just beginning to come. I wish the melons will be extended, the moon will be full and the flowers will be beautiful, and the phoenixes will be together forever, and the mandarin butterflies will be together..."
Yu Qingzhi was shocked and stunned, stroking the wedding book that belonged to her and He Lianjun, and was still a little unreal and confused.
until……
"Scan the top-quality embroidery piece, do you choose to redeem it?"
Yu Qingzhi twitched the corners of her mouth.
This system is really good at picking.
