Chapter 682 Follow Zhao Chen and cry six times in two days
Zhao Chen believes that all of Lao Li Tou's family have inherited Lao Li Tou's shameless qualities.
Otherwise, why would Xiao Li Zhi, who was crying outside just now, be so happy now sitting in front of him, sucking noodles?
"What did Lao Li want you to do?" Zhao Chen said with a cold face, very dissatisfied with Xiao Li Zhi.
As for running around like this for a little girl?
Anyway, you, Li Zhi, will never be together with Wu Jue.
Zhao Chen has decided to make this stick for beating mandarin ducks.
"Father asked me to live here from now on, oh, no, he meant to study with you."
"Brother, the noodles you made are so delicious. Can I have another bowl?" Xiao Li Zhi wiped his mouth and placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of Zhao Chen.
"Go and serve it yourself, and get out of here after eating!" Zhao Chen waved his hand, looking impatient.
But he had no interest in what Lao Li Tou was doing.
What are you doing?
Are you treating this place as a nursery?
Are you willing to give up your entire ancestors at any time?
With his own temper, this little Li Zhi would have to cry six times in two days.
Xiao Li Zhi kept his mouth shut and did not argue with Zhao Cheng.
Before coming here, Empress Changsun gave him many instructions, telling him not to go against Zhao Chen.
Xiao Li Zhi was unhappy, but he felt that as a man, he had to work hard for the girl he liked.
Even if you suffer, you have to swallow it in your belly.
"Zhao Chen, you won't really let Prince Jin live here, he will definitely pester me." While Xiao Li Zhi was serving noodles, Wu Jue sneaked around from behind.
"Then you think of a way to make him leave?"
"How about this? I'll throw you two to Wannian County. Wouldn't it be great for you two to stay and fly together?"
"so……"
"No, I won't go!" Before Zhao Chen could finish speaking, Wu Jue shook his head repeatedly.
"Brother, I can't see your pot, but you...Sister Xiao Wu, I finally see you!" Xiao Li Zhi came back holding the bowl and chopsticks.
He went to the kitchen to serve noodles, but found that he couldn't reach them at all.
There isn't even a stool in the kitchen.
Just when he was about to ask Zhao Chen to help him fill it, he saw Wu Jue standing in front of him.
Xiao Li Zhi was so excited.
After putting down the bowl and chopsticks, he went to hug Wu Jue, but Wu Jue pressed his head with one hand.
"What are you doing?" Wu Jue asked angrily.
This clinging guy made her feel very uncomfortable!
"Sister Xiaowu, I came here just for you. Why did you..."
"Can I thank you?" Wu Jue said, turned around and left.
"Sister Xiao Wu, wait for me!" Xiao Li Zhi stopped eating the noodles and ran away after Wu Jue.
Zhao Chen was sitting in his seat, but he saw Xiao Li Zhi's behavior of licking the dog thoroughly.
…
"Why did Duke Wei come here today?"
"You haven't been to my house for several years."
At Wei Zheng's house, Li Jing's sudden visit really surprised Wei Zheng.
Li Jing knew how to protect himself, so he rarely interacted with other officials in the court.
Every time he led troops to fight and returned, as soon as the military power was handed over, he would return to his own home.
He also doesn’t attend banquets or invite people over.
He rarely even goes to court meetings.
It just so happened that such a guy came to his house today.
This is really strange.
What surprised Wei Zheng even more was not this, but the fact that Li Jing seemed a little embarrassed.
It seemed like he was embarrassed to say something.
"What's going on?" Wei Zheng was extremely curious.
He had never seen Li Jing like this before.
"It's okay, I just came to sit with you!" Li Jing smiled, looking a little unnatural!
"Have a cup of tea." Mrs. Pei brought the tea and turned to leave.
Li Jing was holding hot tea and looking at the rising mist, as if something was choking in his throat.
"Mr. Wei, just tell me what you have to say. Why are you acting so coquettishly today?" Seeing Li Jing's appearance, Wei Zheng was even more surprised.
He secretly wondered if Li Jing had encountered something embarrassing.
Given Li Jing's status, what things can make him feel embarrassed?
"Um...Xuancheng, do you have any money to lend me some?" Li Jing hesitated to express his purpose.
After saying this, the look on his face was unnatural.
"Borrow...borrow money?" Wei Zheng tensed up at that moment.
The money he had was private money that he obtained from Zhao Chen.
I usually don't want to use it myself.
Only when I couldn't help it anymore, I secretly took out dozens of copper coins and went to have a good meal.
Borrow money?
I'm afraid this won't work!
"Wei Gong, are you kidding me? Who doesn't know that that boy Zhao Chen sent ten boxes of gold leaves to your house?"
"It must be worth millions of dollars, and you still want to borrow money from me?" Wei Zheng said, with a look of envy on his face.
If he had such a generous son-in-law, he would wake up laughing even in his dreams.
With so much money, he could lie down in a restaurant and eat, drink and have fun every day.
Li Jing actually asked him to borrow money.
Is this a joke, or is he showing off to himself that he has a rich son-in-law?
"Am I kidding? That guy Zhao Chen must have deliberately made things difficult for me, otherwise he would have given me a million-dollar betrothal gift?"
"I think he just wants to vacate my palace?"
"With so much betrothal gift, am I going to let my girl go without any dowry?" The expression on Li Jing's face was a little ferocious.
What matters in getting married is that you are well-matched.
Li Jing is a dignified duke and a pillar of the army. Can the dowry for his daughter be less than the betrothal gift for the man?
Doesn't this make him, Li Jing, laughable?
However, Zhao Chen came up and gave a betrothal gift of one million yuan?
This could kill Li Jing in one fell swoop.
No matter how much savings the Duke's mansion has, it can't afford such a large dowry.
Even if the Duke's mansion is sold and Li Jing's private land is bought, that's not even close.
But if he can't come up with an equal dowry, then others will look down on his own girl. Isn't it Li Jing's fault?
What can Li Jing do?
As long as he can get money, he will not lend money to others in a humble manner.
"That Mr. Wei, how much money do you still have?"
"I……"
"The difference is half a million dollars!"
"I can't help you, I have no money!" Wei Zheng thought Li Jing was only a few hundred thousand guan short, and he had tens of thousands of guan in private money.
Help if you can.
But Li Jing would risk his life to pay back these five hundred thousand guan?
You can't borrow this money, otherwise it will be wasted!
"I know you can't help me. Your wife, Pei, didn't she and other ladies open many perfume shops in Chang'an City?"
"Xuancheng, please help me beg her?"
"Isn't it good?" Wei Zheng was a little embarrassed.
The Wei Mansion was used to living a hard life.
This led to his wife Pei taking money very seriously.
Even though he followed Li Ruoshuang to open the perfume shop and made a lot of money every day, Wei Zheng didn't see a penny.
Every time he brought money in on a cart, Wei Zheng was kicked out of the house.
He was afraid that Wei Zheng would know how much money he made and spend money lavishly.
Now let Wei Zheng intercede with his wife and lend money to Li Jing to marry his daughter.
Isn’t this making things difficult for him, Wei Zheng!?
