Chapter 63: Chuanwu and Chuanjie

Originally, the Zhu family was preparing a "reception banquet" tonight, but due to a piece of news, the banquet turned into a celebration banquet, and the protagonist changed from Zhu Chunshan to Li Jie.

Everyone was very curious about Li Jie's sudden appointment as an official. With his family watching, Li Jie had no choice but to explain the cause and effect one by one.

This night, Zhu Kaishan was rarely drunk.

For eight generations, Lao Zhu's family had been farmers with their faces facing the loess and their backs to the sky. By his generation, he had become a wanted criminal by the imperial court. Who would have thought that his son would suddenly transform into an official.

What a twist of fate!

After a lively night, Lao Zhu's family finally returned to calm, but this calm was only on the surface, and everyone was still very excited inside.

That night, Wen's mother was lying on the kang, tossing and turning but couldn't fall asleep, so she pushed her husband beside her.

"Children's father? Children's father?"

"Um?"

Zhu Kaishan opened his eyes drowsily, thinking it was dawn, but found that the room was still pitch black, and he couldn't help but let out a burst of surprise.

"I have something to discuss with you."

Zhu Kaishan turned over and changed into a more comfortable position, and asked lazily.

"What's the matter?"

"Chuanwu is not young anymore. I'm thinking about proposing a marriage to him?"

This matter has been on Wen's mother's mind for a long time, but she had never been embarrassed to mention it before. After all, their family had just arrived in Yuanbao Town and had not yet fully integrated into the local area.

If you were looking for her at this time, you probably wouldn't be able to find any good in-laws.

But things are different now. The boss has not only become the protector of Yuanbao Town, but now he has become an official. It should be much easier to propose marriage to other girls’ homes now.

Talking about Chuanwu's marriage, Zhu Kaishan immediately sobered up a lot. The two had been married for many years, so how could Zhu Kaishan not know his old wife's character? At this time, Heta Muang guessed that he already had someone in mind.

"What? Which girl do you like?"

Wen's mother said straightforwardly: "I think the daughter of the old Han family is pretty good. She has an upright appearance and doesn't have the temper of a young lady. The most important thing is that she is kind-hearted."

Zhu Kaishan said unexpectedly: "Why do you fall in love with the daughter of the old Han family?"

Upon hearing her husband's tone, Wen Ta's mother immediately understood that her husband didn't seem to like this daughter-in-law candidate very much, but she felt that the daughter of the old Han family could not be more suitable.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with the daughter of the old Han family?"

Seeing the unkind tone of his old wife, Zhu Kaishan quickly explained: "No, what I mean is that their temperaments are not suitable. You don't know Chuanwu's temperament?"

"This child has strong opinions. We should refer to the child's opinions."

Wen Ta Niang thought about it and felt that what Zhu Kaishan said was reasonable, so she immediately made her decision.

"That's what you said. In this case, you can find an opportunity to go to Lao Han's house later and ask what he means. Then, we can arrange for the two young people to meet."

"Okay, I'll find a reason to come and ask in the next two days."

Although he said this, Zhu Kaishan believed in his heart that there was a high probability that this matter would be successful. The reason why he was so confident was entirely because of Li Jie.

Now in Yuanbao Town, who doesn’t want to get closer to Chuanwen?

Every time Zhu Kaishan went to town, he would meet a group of people who wanted to treat him to dinner.

Why is the other person so enthusiastic?

Zhu Kaishan himself is very self-aware, certainly not because of himself, but because of "chuanwen".

Now that he decided to go and find out, Zhu Kaishan began to think about how he could 'accidentally meet' Han Laohai.

Hey!

By the way, Han Laohai likes to play mahjong and often goes to the mahjong parlor in the town.

However, when he thought about it carefully, Zhu Kaishan felt a little uncomfortable because he had never been to a place like a casino since he settled in Yuanbao Town.

It would be a little too deliberate to appear there suddenly.

Hum!

Hum!

At this moment, two screams suddenly came from the second senior brother in the pig pen.

In an instant, an idea popped into Zhu Kaishan's mind.

There is a local custom that whenever a pig is killed, people in the village must be invited to have a meal.

Isn't this a wonderful opportunity?

Go back and kill the pig, treat everyone to a meal, and then test the old Han family's intentions during the meal.

The more Zhu Kaishan thought about it, the more he felt that this was a good reason, and then he pushed his old wife aside.

"My dear, let's find another day and kill the pig."

Wen's wife asked in confusion: "Why? There are so few glances on pigs now."

"That's it..."

After hearing Zhu Kaishan's reasons, Wen Ta's mother no longer had any grudges in her heart and happily agreed to the suggestion.

"Okay, I will go find someone to kill the pig tomorrow."

The next morning, after breakfast, Li Jie took the two brothers Chuanwu and Chuanjie to Yuanbao Town. On the way, the three of them chatted while walking, and they talked about Chun Hesheng. Chuanwu suddenly asked.

"Chuanjie, how are you studying with Shopkeeper Xia now? If you feel bored, do you want to join the security team? Here, the second brother will take care of you!"

Seeing Chuanwu's triumphant look, Chuanjie couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Hey! I'm not going! I like doing business. In the future, I will also open a business as big as Chun Hesheng and be my own boss!"

Chuanwu glanced at Lao San and said jokingly: "Hey, you kid, you are very ambitious!"

"snort!"

Chuanjie heard the teasing in Chuanwu's mouth and immediately tilted his head with a pout, obviously not wanting to continue talking to his second brother who often bullied him.

Seeing the two people bickering, Li Jie couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. These two little guys have been bickering for so many years, and they still enjoy it so much.

However, since we talked about opening a trading company, I just took this opportunity to ask Chuanjie about his plans.

Chuanwu has found his own way, and under his arrangement, he is getting closer to his goal step by step. Chuanwu and Chuanjie are both his younger brothers, and they cannot favor one over the other.

"Chuanjie, do you want to open a business?"

Hearing his elder brother speak, Chuanjie immediately stopped arguing with Chuanwu and replied honestly.

"Well, that's what I thought."

Li Jie smiled slightly: "Then what kind of business do you want to do, have you decided?"

"No."

Chuanjie shook his head and then told the reason why he couldn't find it.

"I have just followed Shopkeeper Xia for a short time, and there is still a lot to learn. I want to wait until I have figured out all the twists and turns, and then I can think about this matter."

"That's fine."

Since Chuanjie hasn't thought about it yet, Li Jie is not ready to mention helping him open a store. Anyway, since he is here, no matter when Chuanjie wants to open a store, he has the capital.

"When you think about it, remember to tell your elder brother."

Chuanjie nodded seriously and said seriously.

"Um."
