After the two of them had discussed it, they bargained with Yaren, and finally decided to buy it. They immediately asked the high clerk to stay with the two clerks to clean up the shop. If they needed to stay here for a few days, they wouldn't have to stay in an inn.

, just move it directly to the shop.

Although there are not many houses in the small courtyard at the back, it is still no problem to temporarily accommodate people like them.

After completing the formalities, Yao Erzhu took Guo'er around again. Although he was a little tired at the end of the day, he was very satisfied. The two of them also bought some fashionable gadgets and planned to take them back and share them with everyone.

Guo'er was in Yao Erzhu's room discussing whether to check out a few more shops, when Zhang Zipeng came alone.

As soon as he saw Guo'er, he stepped forward and wanted to say something eagerly. Guo'er took a step back and hid behind Yao Erzhu, leaving Zhang Zipeng in the air.

Yao Erzhu stood in front of his niece, cupped his hands and said:

"Young Master Zi Peng is busy, so he doesn't have to come and take care of us. We have looked around in the past two days and have chosen a few shops. We are negotiating with the dental shop. In short, the progress is going very smoothly, so there is no need to worry, Young Master Zi Peng."

Zhang Zipeng saw Yao Erzhu standing in the middle like an iron tower, blocking his sister Guo'er tightly, and said hurriedly:

"What are you talking about, second uncle? Didn't we agree on which shops to buy for our house? If you want to buy them for yourself, then just buy them. Why don't you look at shops elsewhere?"

The two talked about the store for a while. Zhang Zipeng couldn't help but feel more anxious when he saw that Guo'er had not said a word. He knew that Guo'er had a bad conversation with his mother that day, and he was anxious to go out to look for her, but his mother didn't allow him to go out.

, and has been detained at home by his mother for various reasons for the past two days. Even when he wanted to ask Zhang Ping to come out and send a message to Guoer on his behalf, his mother stopped him.

He has always been a filial and obedient junior since he was a child. He has never disobeyed his parents, so he stayed at home for two days to calm his mother's anger. Now that he finally came out, he wanted to have a good talk with sister Guo'er.

He looked at Yao Erzhu, but the other party had no intention of leaving and letting the two of them talk alone. Zhang Zipeng had no choice but to bow deeply to Yao Erzhu.

Of course Yao Erzhu knew what he meant, and turned to look at his niece. Guoer nodded at him, and then Yao Erzhu went out and closed the door for them.

"Sister Guo'er,"

As soon as Zhang Zipeng and others went out, they eagerly stepped forward to hold Guo'er's hand. Guo'er walked around the table to the other side and said coldly:

"Master Zi Peng, if you have anything to say, just say it and I'll listen. Once you've finished speaking, leave quickly. Men and women don't interact with each other, so I won't give you too much time."

Zhang Zipeng was stunned: "Sister Guo'er, you actually called me young master."

There is sadness that cannot be concealed in the words.

Guo'er: Haha, if I hadn't thought about saying something clearly, I wouldn't have paid any attention to you.

Zhang Zipeng: "My mother may have had a bad attitude towards you that day. Don't mind. I will make amends for you on her behalf."

Guo'er: "The second lady treats me as a guest very well, so you don't have to apologize for anything. By the way, your cousin, Miss Nian, is very gentle and kind. None of them treated me badly."

Guoer stared at Zhang Zipeng and said every word. She wanted to see what Zhang Zipeng's expression would be when he heard the words "your cousin".

But Zhang Zipeng asked with a puzzled look on his face: "If that's the case, then why did you leave suddenly and return the meeting gift that your mother specially gave you?"

Guo'er's heart sank: "You really don't know?"

Zhang Zipeng: "Sister Guoer, I told the elders in my family about our matter, and they are all happy to see it happen, including my mother, otherwise she would not take the initiative to give you a meeting gift, and my cousin...

..."

When Zhang Zipeng said this, he seemed to finally realize what Guo'er was worried about, so he added, "Don't worry Guo'er, my cousin is a very easy-to-get-together person. You will know if you have more contact with her in the future."

Guo'er looked at him as if she didn't recognize him, her eyes gradually became colder, which made Zhang Zipeng's heart gradually panic.

He knew from a very early age that he

It was not up to him to decide what kind of wife he would marry in the future. Later, as he got older, his family began to make many plans for his marriage. The only people he looked at were the daughters of high-ranking families in the city, including even officials.

Miss.

His mother intended to set him up with his cousin Nian, which he understood very early on, but he had always treated his cousin Nian as a younger sister and had resisted, saying that he only wanted to marry a woman he truly liked.

Later, he met Sister Guo'er. Even he himself couldn't tell when he started to feel that he couldn't let go of this cute little girl, so he came up with the idea of ​​marrying her.

Later, he found an opportunity to mention Guoer's sister to his mother, but his mother told him clearly at that time that his future wife could only be a young lady from an aristocratic family with a family background and status that could match his, either his cousin Nian, or from another family.

Miss, there is no way she is a farm girl.

However, if he insists, it won't matter if he takes Guo'er as his concubine after he gets married in the future, just like his father and Aunt Feng. His father likes Aunt Feng very much, and his mother also likes Aunt Feng because of her rules.

, knowing how to advance and retreat and never gave Aunt Feng a hard time.

He was naturally unwilling at the time, but deep down he felt that his mother's words were reasonable. His usual temperament of obeying his elders prevented him from making any strong objections, thinking that Guo'er's sister was still young and it might take another two years.

There will be a happy outcome. Chinese website

But now, it seems that it can't be delayed any longer.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zipeng's handsome face gradually turned pale, as if this matter was slowly deviating from his expected imagination.

Guo'er looked at him steadily and said, "You said you liked me, but have you ever thought about marrying me as your wife in the future?"

Faced with Guoer's question, Zhang Zipeng said helplessly:

"Sister Guo'er, since I like you, I really want to marry you, but I..."

Guoer: "What am I? Those affectionate words you said to me before and those letters you wrote turned out to be just to tease me."

Zhang Zipeng waved his hands anxiously: "No, no, what I said is true. I have always liked you. However, my family background makes it difficult for me to have the right to choose my wife. But don't worry, I

I will definitely fight for it with my mother, but if it doesn’t work out, I would like to treat you as an equal wife..."

"Haha! A common wife? It turns out that in your eyes, a country girl like me is only worthy of being a concubine for rich men like you!"

Guo'er interrupted him rudely. At this time, her heart and eyes were cold, and the few tender feelings she had had were all gone. It turned out that she had thought wrong.

In the eyes, marrying a wife and taking concubines is as normal as eating and dressing.

"Zhang Zi Peng, please listen to me. I, Yao Guo'er, will never be anyone's concubine in my life. What I want is a pair for the rest of my life. Since you can't afford it, then take back your false intentions.

"

After Guo'er said this, she no longer wanted to stay with him, so she walked over and opened the door.

"Sister Guo'er, listen to me..."

Seeing this, Zhang Zipeng wanted to stop her anxiously, but Yao Erzhu, who was standing at the door, saw Guo'er coming out and immediately stood in the middle to separate them. Guo'er took the opportunity to run back to his room.

After closing the door, Guoer's tears flowed down unsatisfactorily. Even though she had thought clearly in her heart, it was impossible not to be sad at all. In the past two days, she had been running around with her second uncle without letting herself stop.

I just don’t want myself to think too much.

Now hearing Zhang Zipeng say it from her own words, she really gave up.

"Uncle Yao, why are you stopping me? Sister Guo'er has misunderstood me. I must explain it clearly to her."

Outside, Zhang Zipeng eagerly wanted to talk to Guo'er, stretching his neck to look at Guo'er's closed door.

Yao Erzhu had been standing at the door since he went out just now, and listened clearly to what the two said. Now that he saw Zhang Zipeng still pestering his niece, he felt angry in his heart.

"Master Zipeng, this is an inn, are you sure you want to make a fuss here?"

Zhang Zipeng was stunned and quickly looked around. Where they were was

On the second floor of the inn, although there was no one in the corridor at the moment, this was really not a place to talk, so he looked at Yao Erzhu anxiously and lowered his voice:

"Uncle Yao, I don't want to cause trouble for you, I just want to make it clear to Sister Guoer..."

"Master Zipeng is joking, but a country girl cannot call Master Zipeng sister. Besides, we have made it very clear just now. We country people really don't dare to reach out to your family, and we don't want to reach out to you."

, Master Zi Peng, please come back!"

Zhang Zipeng's face became increasingly pale, but Yao Erzhu stood there with his hands on his hips as motionless as an iron tower. There was no way he could cross over. Looking at the obvious indifference in the other person's eyes, and what Sister Guoer said just now, he finally

I realized that my beautiful plans were just wishful thinking, and Sister Guoer didn't care at all.

In fact, when his mother started talking to him, he had thought about what to do if sister Guoer didn't want to be a concubine, but he was soon convinced by his own thoughts. After all, he and sister Guoer were in love.

Yue, she is the only one he really likes in his heart. If he can't stand up to the family elders in the future, maybe sister Guo'er will understand his difficulties and settle for the next best thing.

However, things seemed not as good as I imagined.

There was gradually no sound outside. Guo'er didn't know when Zhang Zipeng left. After a long time, Yao Erzhu knocked on the door. Guo'er realized that it was past meal time and she didn't feel hungry at all.

Yao Erzhu knew that his niece was not feeling well, but as a grown man, he really didn't know how to persuade her, so he had to stand guard at the door to prevent others from disturbing her. He also specifically asked the waiter to set aside another table of rice and bring it in for his niece himself.

The uncle and nephew were eating together. Guo'er watched her second uncle carefully picking up vegetables for herself, and her mood improved inexplicably. She unconsciously said with a smile:

"I will do it myself."

Yao Erzhu chuckled: "When you are angry, the best way is to eat hard. Once your stomach is full, the anger in your stomach will not be able to stay, and it will naturally run away."

"Pfft!"

Guoer laughed out loud.

After the two of them finished eating, Yao Erzhu carefully asked Guo'er if he wanted to visit the shop again. Guo'er shook his head and said:

"Second uncle, at this time, do you think it's appropriate for us to show off our talents in Fucheng in the future?"

Yao Erzhu shook his head instinctively. Guo'er slowly expressed his thoughts. They had already fallen out with the Zhang family, so it seemed inappropriate to continue to buy a shop and do business here. Although the reputation of the Zhang family would not affect their future.

It's embarrassing for them, but this is the Zhang family's base camp after all. If they really open a shop and do business here, they will inevitably have a lot of dealings to do in the future. Now she just wants to stay as far away from the Zhang family as possible.

As for the new shop they just bought, they turned it into a grocery store according to their original idea, which can be regarded as bringing the Yao family's business to Fucheng.

Yao Erzhu just nodded in agreement with what Guo'er said. After Guo'er finished speaking, he said:

"Then I will go to Yahang in the afternoon to urge them to exchange the official deed for the shop as soon as possible. Once I get the official deed, I will lead our people to clean up the shop quickly. After everything is done, we will return to Laiyang."
Chapter completed!
