Chapter 172: What's happening
Yang Zuoxian always felt that something was wrong.
But how could a child lie?
He struggled desperately: "What if your mother and I are in love and she is willing to marry me? That's not enough? The Luo family has so many sons, there is no shortage of sons-in-law!"
"Yes, but my mother doesn't want to get married!" Meng Yu shook his head like a little adult, and said earnestly: "You didn't even ask my mother, and you just did this. How can my mother and my grandparents and uncles be happy?"
Yang Zuoxian didn't say anything. He was wondering if he was too impatient.
Meng Yu beckoned him to come closer: "If one day, someone you don't know very well, wearing a wedding dress, with dowry and servants, comes to the door of your Yang family mansion and says she wants to marry you, and the whole city knows about it, will you marry her?"
"We don't know each other well, why should I marry him? Isn't this a forced sale?"
"Yes, you came with drums and gongs, and brought the official matchmaker and betrothal gifts. Do you think my mother would be happy?"
"No, no, I'm familiar with your mother!"
"How familiar are you? Did you grow up together as childhood sweethearts?"
The matchmaker saw Yang Zuoxian and a little child whispering to each other, but she didn't know what they were talking about.
She remembered what she had to do with the money, and hurriedly said to Zhao Susu, "Madam Zhao, Young Master Yang is a handsome man. Look at these betrothal gifts, they are all prepared by him personally. As the saying goes, it is easy to find priceless treasures, but it is hard to find a lover. Isn't this woman's life all about having a husband who understands her feelings? Young Master Yang is so thoughtful, Madam Zhao, you are so lucky!"
"I just said that I don't want to get married again!"
"Mrs. Zhao, what are you talking about? How can a woman not get married? You even have a child, but Young Master Yang not only doesn't despise you, but also values you so much. How rare is this? Don't you think so? Besides, the best thing in the world is for men and women to get married happily. If you marry Young Master Yang, not only will you have someone to rely on for the rest of your life, but your child will also have a father. It's a perfect marriage, what a good thing!"
This matchmaker's job is matchmaking. She was talking a lot and trying her best to persuade Zhao Susu. She even gave several examples of how so-and-so had a good life after getting married and never had to do any housework.
Although so-and-so is married for the second time, her husband is so happy that she lives a happy life!
As she spoke, she was still wondering: What's wrong with Mr. Yang? Why is he coaxing a child at this time? He should coax her, isn't this the young lady he wants to marry?
However, thinking of the generous reward offered by Young Master Yang, she cheered up and prepared to persuade him again.
But at this moment, Yang Zuoxian straightened up and told Yang Guang, "Take all the things away and wait for me outside the door!"
The matchmaker was surprised: "Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Yang, isn't this the betrothal gift? Why are you taking it away again?" How can she still be a matchmaker if she takes it away?
Yang Zuoxian waved his hand: "Matchmaker Zhang, no more, no more, you can go back too!"
"Young Master Yang, Young Master Yang, why are you suddenly..."
Yang Zuoxian sighed: "I am too abrupt, let's talk about it later!"
He even bowed to Zhao Susu and said, "Madam Zhao, let's continue the cooperation. I was not thoughtful enough about what happened today!"
Although Meng Yu was annoying, his words made sense. He was too impatient. Doing this without Zhao Susu's consent would only make her disgusted. The current Zhao Susu was no longer a country woman, nor was she an ordinary shop owner in a small county town.
She is the daughter of the Luo family who had been missing for many years and was just found. Now the Luo family values her very much. The Yang family had a feud with the Luo family before.
Although he has already cooperated with the Luo family, it was only a business cooperation.
The Luo family may not necessarily accept the Yang family.
Unless Zhao Susu is interested.
Zhao Susu breathed a sigh of relief. Businessmen always make money by being harmonious. The location selection and related matters of her business have now been implemented. Yang Zuoxian's connections and opinions were indispensable in the process. She really didn't want to have a bad relationship with him.
Yang Zuoxian went out in a hurry, and those who were beating gongs and drums were still outside the Luo Mansion.
Including the betrothal gift that was brought out.
It’s not that Yang Zuoxian was stingy and reluctant to take them back. After all, these were betrothal gifts. If he didn’t take them back, it would make the Luo family even more angry.
Such a big event attracted a crowd of people to watch the fun. When they saw Yang Zuoxian leaving, some people with a curious mind laughed and asked loudly, "Young Master Yang, is something good about to happen?"
Yang Zuoxian said solemnly: "A gentleman loves a beautiful lady. Miss Luo is the best, but I had a bad reputation before, and she doesn't want to be separated from her family now!"
"Does that mean it didn't work?"
Yang Zuoxian said calmly, "Yes, I am not worthy of Miss Luo now, but I will change my ways. When I am praised by everyone for my good deeds, I will come to the Luo family to ask for marriage."
He looked around and said, "Everyone, please bear witness. From today on, if anyone sees me, Yang Zuoxian, going in and out of brothels or prostitutes, you can come and slap me in the face. Not only will I not blame you, I will also reward you with ten taels of silver!"
Ten taels was a considerable amount, and it made everyone's eyes light up.
Get rich!
Everyone knows that the fourth son of the Yang family is a frequent visitor to brothels. Almost all the top girls in brothels have had sex with him. He spends more time in brothels than in his own house. If you see him, you should slap him in the face. His face will be smashed.
The key is that they can get money by beating someone up, so this good thing makes them eager to try.
When people come, there is beating of drums and gongs, and there is a lot of noise; when they leave, they leave in a hurry with no sound under their feet.
Zhao Susu naturally knew about the commotion outside.
She felt speechless.
Yang Zuoxian is crazy. Can't he just do business properly? Why does he have to make things so complicated? If I talk business with him in the future, I have to bring a few more people with me to avoid suspicion.
It has been a month and a half since I left Ningshan County.
The shop owner was capable and she had made arrangements in advance, so she wasn't worried.
But she wrote back anyway.
Yu Yuanda and Tan Xianzhi quickly replied that there were no problems with the business. They were also training talents according to Zhao Susu's requirements. Now the shop was fully staffed. Because of the rewards and the last-place dismissal agreement, the shop assistants and managers were very hardworking.
When Luo Qingzhu took the letter back, he also said something special: "At that time, my elder brother was afraid that something might happen to your shop, so he sent Luo Qing to open a shop in Ningshan County. First, we can help each other, and second, we can help nearby if something happens. This is the news from Luo Qing!"
When Zhao Susu took a look, she found that it was almost the same as what he had received in the reply letter.
Speaking of which, both Shopkeeper Yu and Shopkeeper Tan were the ones that Ayu wanted her to use.
There used to be a shopkeeper named Zhang, who was very eloquent, smart, and had a good understanding of business. She wanted to use him, but Ayu said she hated him, so she didn't use him.
Half a year later, it was heard that the shopkeeper had falsified the accounts, embezzled the money of his later employer, and wanted to run away, but was arrested by the government.
She squatted down, smiling: "Ayu, let's go and pick someone with mom!"
