Chapter 231 Some people are happy and some are sad
"Want to know?"
Ji Mingxuan deliberately tempted her, and Zhao Huanyu took the bait without any surprise.
"Uh-huh!"
She nodded, her eyes full of expectation.
"I didn't say anything, I just talked about our marriage."
Ji Mingxuan originally wanted to tease her, but seeing her like this, he couldn't bear to see her anxious and said it directly.
Zhao Huanyu looked confused: "Our marriage? Why didn't I know about it?"
It's about to get married, but she, the protagonist, doesn't know anything about it. Is this reasonable?
"Isn't this what I'm telling you now?"
Ji Mingxuan had a flattering smile on his face, obviously still worried that she would be angry.
"After the New Year, you will be fifteen years old. I want to settle our marriage first so that Uncle Zhao and Grandma can rest assured. As for getting married, we still have to wait until you are older. We are not in a hurry."
Ji Mingxuan has been waiting for this time, and it is also because of this that he will wait for half a month this time, in order to settle Qin's family, so that her family can feel at ease, and he can also feel at ease.
In fact, he had always known that her family was afraid of his identity, and felt that he was no different from other suave noble men. He was worried that he would let her down, so he always felt uneasy.
He is not like this. Every day he thinks about when the little girl will grow up, and he dreams of getting married as soon as possible, so that he doesn't have to worry about other people coveting his little girl.
The little girl is getting better and better, more and more beautiful, and more and more people like her. Naturally, he is also worried that the little girl will fall in love with someone else.
After all, the iron tree finally blossomed, so he seized this opportunity.
Zhao Huanyu has never thought about the marriage between the two, and even thinks that it is good to keep dating like this. Her identity will not affect his status in the court, and the forces hostile to him will not deal with her.
It will affect the family.
But now he actually proposed the marriage, and said that if the marriage was finalized first, the marriage could still be a few years later.
This is another kind of security he gave her besides giving her a lot of money.
If he dares to propose marriage to her, it means that he is willing to bear all the risks of being with her and is willing to protect her from wind and rain.
"Even so, shouldn't you ask me what I mean first? What if I don't agree?"
Zhao Huanyu deliberately teased him, but Ji Mingxuan was not fooled at all: "That can't be done. Grandma has already agreed. Regarding the marriage, my parents ordered me to marry the matchmaker. You are destined to be my wife and you can't run away."
As he spoke, he pinched her face restlessly with a wanton smile on his face.
Zhao Huanyu naturally couldn't refuse, so she just posed a problem to him: "Then you have to propose to me. I promise to marry you, and then you can come to propose marriage."
"Proposal? How do you ask for it?"
Zhao Huanyu was actually just teasing him, but she didn't expect him to be extra serious. Looking at it like this, she seemed eager to do it now.
She really said: "You must first pick out a beautiful ring for me, then kneel down on one knee and ask me if I will marry you."
She said it very casually, because she knew that such behavior could not really happen in this era.
In this era, men are superior to women, and Ji Mingxuan holds a high position, how could he kneel down on one knee for her?
She had never really expected it, so there was no burden in saying it now.
"Is it that simple?"
Ji Mingxuan raised his eyebrows. He thought it would be difficult.
Although she had never heard of this custom, it didn't satisfy her.
Who made her his wife?
Zhao Huanyu asked: "Is it very simple?"
Ji Mingxuan didn't know and didn't want to say more, he already had an idea in his mind.
After a while, Fu Yuan came back and bought steaming meat buns. At this time, a group of people riding a Wanzhu ox cart also came.
Everyone ate quickly and then started cleaning up and getting ready for business.
Although the shop is open in the town, many people come from the county town after hearing the news, and they make a lot of money every day.
What's more important is that they are the only one selling rouge and gouache on this street, which poses no threat to the surrounding shops and can even boost the business of the surrounding shops.
For example, in the ready-to-wear shop of Li Wang's family next door, the girls who came to buy rouge and gouache bought rouge and gouache. They also wanted to buy good-looking clothes to wear during the New Year. There happened to be a ready-made clothes shop next to it, so they went to browse and saw what they liked.
Buy it.
As a result, the clothing store next door is also overcrowded every day.
The other shops, whether they sell jewelry or engage in food business, have also benefited more or less. Everyone likes Yuzhi Pavilion very much.
I just hope that Zhao Huanyu's business will get better and better, so that they can also benefit from it.
But some people are happy and some are worried. For example, at the Beauty Hall on Yanhe Street, its business has plummeted since the opening of Yuzhi Pavilion. All new and old customers went to Yuzhi Pavilion, but the owner was very angry.
"Boss, we can't keep going like this! We originally put in a lot of goods just for the Chinese New Year period. The Chinese New Year is coming in about ten days, but we haven't sold much of these goods. If this goes on, we have to
It’s a loss!”
The person who spoke was Mrs. Zhang who went to make trouble on the morning when Yuzhi Pavilion opened. She had worked in Jiaren Hall for many years and could speak well in front of the boss. She went to make trouble that morning because she wanted to see what Yuzhi Pavilion sold.
, but when she saw the expensive price, she immediately wanted to start a fight, but she failed.
"Can I not know whether I am losing money or not? Do you think I am not anxious?"
The boss glared at her with dissatisfaction. That morning she went to Yuzhi Pavilion to cause trouble privately, and was recognized by others, which ruined the reputation of the Beauty Hall. If it weren't for the fact that she was the old man in the shop, he would have really wanted to drive her away.
.
Mrs. Zhang didn't know that her boss was still angry because of this incident, so she continued to curse: "That Yuzhi Pavilion is really shameless, isn't it just some rouge and gouache, and it is sold so expensive! Those people who go to Yuzhi Pavilion are also fools
, the things in our Beauty Hall are of high quality and low price, no worse than those of Yuzhi Pavilion!"
This is what makes the owner of Beauty Hall angry. His products are obviously cheap and affordable, but why are there so few people buying them? Now that people's lives are so easy, do they have to buy high-priced rouge?
Mrs. Zhang kept saying bad things about Yuzhi Pavilion. The boy next to her couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to say to the boss: "Boss, there is a reason why the things in Yuzhi Pavilion are expensive. I once asked the customers in the shop about it.
However, it seems that Yuzhi Pavilion’s formula contains many expensive medicinal materials, so the price is high.”
Mrs. Zhang also knew about this, but she didn't tell her boss, she just flattered her boss blindly.
"Is there such a thing?"
The boss said oh and looked at Mrs. Zhang. Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said: "She said yes, right? We can't just take whatever she says. Who knows if she is a liar? The boss of Yuzhi Pavilion looks young.
She is very evil-minded, and I can tell at a glance that she is not a good person, so putting medicinal ingredients in the product must be a lie!"
