Chapter 66: A Poisonous Pot of Chicken Soup

This scene made Mr. Fang stunned. A sentence suddenly appeared in his mind, "It's hard to raise women and villains." This kind of woman is the most afraid of, and he also showed a look of at a loss on his face.

Chen Kaizhi said calmly: "Since we are proposing marriage, we just need to confirm the marriage first. There is no need to hurry up the marriage, students should work hard..."

"Try hard?" Mrs. Xun interrupted directly, but smiled and spoke from her nostrils with disdain: "No need. Ya'er did say some good things about you in front of me, but I think it's not like this compared to Ruyu. Let's take back the proposal today. It's not that our Xun family has any prejudice against you, but Ya'er has already agreed to someone."

Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but ask: "Is it Zhang Ruyu?"

"What?" Mrs. Xun looked at Chen Kaizhi with a smile, as if she was a little alert in her eyebrows.

"Oh. Nothing." Chen Kaizhi understood what was going on. He has always been a very tactful person. He understood some things from his parents' orders, matchmakers' words.

Mrs. Xun thought that at this time, Chen Kaizhi would definitely cry or say some touching words.

Unexpectedly, Chen Kai's face was as deep as water, which made her slightly disappointed.

She looked at Chen Kaizhi carefully. Although she suffered setbacks, there was no fluctuation on the handsome face of the young man. The faint smile that seemed to be there was still hanging on his face as usual, with a secluded look in his eyes, as if unfathomable.

Chen Kaizhi bowed to her: "Since that's the case, the student understands and say goodbye."

This is what he is like. He is never used to asking for help in his life, so he said goodbye and turned around and left.

"Let's wait, Ah Fu, get things." Mrs. Xun felt a little frustrated, because this young man didn't play according to common sense.

At this time, a servant took a brocade box and respectfully arrived in front of Chen Kaizhi as if he had already prepared it.

Chen Kaizhi's eyes flashed, as if he was smiling: "I wonder what Madam means?"

"Nothing." Mrs. Xun glanced at a place and smiled faintly, her voice full of sarcasm: "It's rare that you have a bare wall, your family is barely covered in food, your clothes are not covered, but you are willing to study. Since Chen Shengjun has come, there are hundreds of taels of silver here. This is nothing to the Xun and Zhang families, but it must be of great help to Chen Shengjun. Please accept it with a smile."

The silver pattern of 100 taels is indeed very attractive to Chen Kaizhi now. His usual expenses are only one thousand yuan in one month. This amount of money is at least enough for Chen Kaizhi's years of expenses.

But Mrs. Xun clearly wanted to humiliate him. A person who couldn't even take out a hundred taels of silver and wanted to marry her daughter? It was simply a dream that a toad wanted to eat swan meat.

Chen Kaizhi felt deeply hurt his self-esteem, and pursed his lips gently and said, "Wealth can touch people's hearts. Speaking of which, it really makes the wife laugh. The students are indeed poor, but the money should be forgotten. The students are poor because they are a little poor, but they are a little hard, so they thanked the wife for their kindness, and the students said goodbye."

After saying that, Chen Kaizhi turned around very simply, without looking at the silver in the box, and quickly walked out.

After leaving Xun Mansion, Mr. Fang chased after him panting. He looked at Chen Kaizhi's straight back. It seemed nothing unusual on the surface, but it seemed that he could see Chen Kaizhi's wounded heart at this moment.

He quickly stepped forward, but was speechless for a moment.

The two of them walked silently. When they arrived at the middle of the street, Chen Kaizhi bowed to Mr. Fang and said, "Sir, the student is going home first."

Mr. Fang stroked his beard and didn't know how to comfort him. He smiled and said, "Woman, don't be as knowledgeable as her, such a woman..."

Chen Kaizhi shook his head and said, "It's actually the student's fault. The student's family is barely sloppy, but he wants to climb up this marriage. It's reasonable that she plans to refuse the marriage for her daughter."

Mr. Fang laughed dryly and shook his hand: "Go, don't worry, in the hearts of some people, you may not be worth a penny, but in the heart of your teacher, you are unique, ha... It is indeed rare to say anything kind to you by your teacher, but these words are true. But you must also remember that you should not give up on yourself. In your heart, you should be more precious than everyone in the world."

What a poisonous pot of life chicken soup.

Chen Kaizhi actually smiled, nodded at Mr. Fang, and then turned around and left.

……………………

At midnight, the night breeze is blowing, and the crescent moon hangs high in the sky, like a scimitar. The singing hall next to it is still full of people, with silk and bamboo waves. The drunkard who is buying laughter makes bursts of laughter, as if the prosperity of Jinling is condensed in this night that makes the drunkard unforgettable.

But in the small courtyard next to the song hall, there was a figure sitting on the stone in the night fog. Chen Kaizhi hadn't played his harmonica for a long time. He plucked his cheeks, and the unique tone of the harmonica sound was played. The melodious harmonica sound was soon overwhelmed by the noise in the song hall. As well as the rustling sound of the osmanthus trees in front of the courtyard.

After Chen Kaizhi finished blowing, he looked up at the moon. The moon was like a knife. The person under the moon had a sword eyebrows, but there was a bit of mockery in his eyes. He shouted... He carefully put away the harmonica and turned back to the room.

When Chen Kaizhi heard Chen Wuji come back, Chen Wuji rustled in the shop, and Chen Kaizhi said, "Wuji, haven't you been asleep yet?"

Chen Wuji came out of the shop and said, "Brother Chen, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"It's not uncomfortable." Chen Kaizhi said seriously while extinguishing the candlelight: "I have encountered many things in my life and have also been blunt in many respects. I used to be uncomfortable, but now I rarely feel uncomfortable, because I know that discomfort will only make you weaker, ha... I'll give you chicken soup, OK, go to bed."

Chen Kaizhi's original intention is chicken soup in life. Who knew that when he talked about chicken soup, he actually had some support. He was really mean and he was so mean. He didn't open any pot.

Early the next morning, I was woken up.

Chen Kaizhi raised his shoes and heard the movement outside. He started to dress. In the morning light, he saw Xun You standing outside the courtyard.

Why did he come?

Chen Kaizhi was very suspicious. While walking forward, he bowed politely to Xun Guest and said, "Hello, Shibo."

Xun You only looked at Chen Kaizhi's courtyard, smiled, and then looked around and said, "Let's go in and talk."

There seemed to be some anxiety in his expression.

Chen Kaizhi welcomed him in. Chen Wuji recognized Miss Xun as Miss Xun's closest relative and hurriedly went to make tea for Xun You.

After Xun You sat down, he sighed first before saying, "Ya'er had a big fuss last night and threw herself into the river."

Chen Kaizhi was shocked. He never expected that a gentle woman like Miss Xun would do such a fierce move. Was she so unwilling to marry her cousin? Or...

Chen Kaizhi's heart suddenly thrust. He really didn't dare to admit that a woman would love him deeply for no reason, and he...he didn't seem to have done anything that touched her very much.
