"To be courteous for nothing is to be either a traitor or a thief." Zhang Qingjiu stood three feet away from Chu Xun and shook his head.
She didn't want to go there and let him disturb Chu Lan's sweet dream so early in the morning.
How could he stand up to this harsh northwest wind without teasing him?
"What kind of adultery or theft can I do with you?" Chu Xun was almost angry at this young couple. One of them really dared to say something and the other dared to do it.
It can be seen that the two of them were so incompatible with each other, Chu Xun was defeated in the end, gritted his teeth, and said dejectedly: "I can't see your mother now."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qingjiu instantly became happy, "Isn't my mother in the Wei Mansion? It's not like she's missing, how come you can't see her?"
"You!" Chu Xun's mouth trembled a few times. He didn't know that the little fox in front of him was not only pretending to be confused, but also deliberately asking questions knowingly, "I mean, your mother is not happy to see me now."
"Oh! So that's it." Zhang Qingjiu nodded, made a look of realization, patted Chu Lan's hand, pulled him forward to sit down, and said with emotion: "Nonsense... you can't do it.
!”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two men in the room turned dark instantly.
Chu Xun's raised fingers were trembling. He looked at Zhang Qingjiu for a long time, but couldn't utter a single word. Finally, he picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, suppressing the shock and excitement in his heart.
Helpless, "Lan'er, please take care of her!"
On the other side, Chu Lan shook her head helplessly, pinched the fingers that fell by her side, "Jiu, don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Qingjiu turned his eyes and said seriously: "It's not possible in the first place. What a great opportunity it was yesterday. You and I left the house after noon. If he had taken advantage of it at that time, what happened today would not have happened."
Chu Lan: "..."
Chu Xun: "..."
After all, it was Chu Lan who knew him better. He smiled and sent a plate of pear blossom cakes to Zhang Qingjiu, "This is the first thing Uncle Nine Emperors bought when he went to Zhaixing Tower early in the morning."
"First drawer?" Zhang Qingjiu glanced at his dog man and gave him a knowing look.
He wanted to explain what he meant by what he just said.
So, under the gaze of the two men, Zhang Qingjiu slowly ate a piece of pear blossom cake that was still warm, took another sip of the tea at just the right temperature, and then said with a smile, "It's a lie yesterday afternoon."
What did you do?"
"Go..." Chu Xun was stunned by her question, and his eyes began to dodge.
"Go and prepare your betrothal gift, right?" Zhang Qingjiu smiled slightly and blinked.
Things that haven't been revealed yet, but these are things that I'm actively preparing for.
Chu Xun blushed, but he couldn't deny the fact, so he had no choice but to nod, "Yes."
At that time, he only thought that his nephew had prepared so much, and he, the emperor's uncle, could not leave behind no matter what. But who would have thought that it had not been more than ten hours, and when he went to the Wei Mansion early this morning, he was rejected.
.
When he thought that these two juniors were now flying together, and he still had no whereabouts, he felt really sad and anxious. He wandered around outside, so he eagerly came to the Prince's Mansion, thinking about asking the two juniors to give advice.
idea.
"So, I'm telling you that you still haven't understood what my mother wants." Zhang Qingjiu shook his head and his expression gradually became serious, "Although yesterday was my big day, as far as Yu Fengfeng is concerned, she
Now I am the only daughter. Although I am happy, I still can't help but feel disappointed. If you go out in front of us and comfort us in the back, maybe I can change my mind towards you today."
Chu Xun frowned, a little confused: "But... isn't that taking advantage of others' danger?"
Zhang Qingjiu's eyes widened and he said in disbelief, "If you don't take advantage of others' danger, could it be that you are waiting for Fengfeng to throw herself into your arms? What do you want in courtship? What you want is fast, accurate and ruthless! You are not eating
If you are completely irresponsible, how can you take advantage of others' danger?"
As soon as these words came out, Chu Xun no longer asked Zhang Qingjiu to be careful about what he said, and looked like he had learned a lesson, "I see, that's it!"
"What's more, my Fengfeng is not someone who pays much attention to betrothal gifts, but you spend so much time on this. If it were me, I wouldn't pay attention to you." Zhang Qingjiu saw that his eyes were shining brightly, so he "kindly" pointed him out again.
After speaking, he picked up the tea and took a sip.
Chu Xun really understood now. He patted his thigh with annoyance on his face. After he came to his senses, he said bitterly, "Girl, since you understand these principles, why didn't you tell me yesterday?"
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be possible to change your words today?
Seeing that Chu Xun started to throw the pot to her mid-sentence, Zhang Qingjiu's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, and he sighed quietly: "I'm not in a hurry to change my words."
Who allowed him to "laugh" at her bitch in front of so many people, saying that he had emptied the Prince's Mansion?
And this is the first tray of pear blossom cakes in Zhaixinglou... Zhang Qingjiu glanced at it and snorted softly.
Don't think she doesn't know, this is not something he went to Zhaixinglou to buy for himself. He clearly went to Fengfeng's place and was rejected, and made a "smooth favor" to bring it to her.
"You, you are really..." Chu Xun took a deep breath and saw Zhang Qingjiu shaking the pear blossom cake in his hand, with a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Chu Xun's mouth twitched and he immediately stopped talking.
He understood what she meant.
I really want my nephew to know that this box of pear blossom cakes was brought over by him, and maybe even one or two of them may not make him feel better.
only……
Chu Xun was silent for a while, and his expression became serious again, "Your mother is still unwilling until now. She actually has another concern."
And this was also the reason why he didn't dare to really take the final step.
Seeing him like this, Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows, "Are you talking about what General Wei said in that letter?"
Seeing that Zhang Qingjiu knew about this, Chu Xun was slightly stunned, but quickly nodded, "Yes."
At that time, General Wei personally said that his daughter should not marry a military general, and also asked the late emperor to marry her to a civil servant. It is self-evident who this person was guarding against.
But she really didn't expect that Chu Xun would hesitate on this point.
"I'll help you with this matter. What can you thank me for?" Zhang Qingjiu leaned back and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
As soon as he heard the word "done", Chu Xun couldn't stop the smile on his face. He clapped his hands and said, "Whatever you want, just say it!"
Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows, "Anything is fine?"
Chu Xun waved his hand again: "It doesn't matter if you don't harm the laws of nature, seek wealth or harm lives, or violate the laws of the Great Hui."
"It's really refreshing to talk nonsense!" Zhang Qingjiu nodded, smiling so hard that his eyes narrowed, "Then... how about... give the pile of things in the southwest corner of your warehouse to the Prince's Mansion?"
"Wha, what?" Chu Xun was stunned for a moment.
"What? You can't bear to part with it? I don't want the pile of stuff on the east side of your warehouse." Zhang Qingjiu smiled like a fox.
The corner of Chu Xun's mouth moved, and after a long time he finally managed to say two words, "Deal."
When leaving the Prince's Mansion, Chu Xun's steps were a bit vain, and he pinched his arm to confirm that this was not a dream.
On the southwest side of the warehouse is half of his belongings left after he packed up Chu Feng's betrothal gifts and placed them on the east side.
