Chapter 37
Fang Yuan asked Fang Miaolan and Zhou Lang to stay, but he was very embarrassed about where Huang Yaoshi and Itachi lived.There are so many people in the family, the living room is already crowded, Fang Miaolan can squeeze out one wing room to live in, but it is difficult to squeeze out another wing room.
You can't ask Huang Yaoshi and the others to live in the servant's wing, right?
Huang Yaoshi didn't make things difficult for him, he just said that he had a house in Jiaxing, and he took Weasel away after dinner.
Zhou Langben was still very curious, and wanted to follow Huang Yaoshi, anyway, she was going back to Peach Blossom Island to learn martial arts.But Fang Miaolan is too lonely living alone in the Fang family, and the attitude of the Fang family is still unclear.
Zhou Lang was still looking forward to matching Huang Yaoshi and Fang Miaolan, so naturally he couldn't let her live here alone, and run away by himself.
Fortunately, the Fang family's hospitality was quite considerate, and the bedroom was warmly furnished. Fang Miaolan and Zhou Lang lay on the bed, but fell asleep after a while.
Fang Yuan drank with Huang Yaoshi at night, and fell asleep long ago, only Li Shi tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
For a while she seemed to hear her son crying and wanted to get up to read it, but for a while she was lying down thinking about Fang Miaolan, too worried to fall asleep.
The eldest sister came back to seek refuge, and Fang Yuan was the only younger brother, so she naturally couldn't drive him away.Not to mention the cost of raising the two of them, and the dowry of the future niece, just because the Fang family has a widowed sister, the reputation is not very good.
After much deliberation, Mrs. Li still wanted to "invite Fang Miaolan out". "Please get out" is naturally not to chase her away, but to find a good family to marry her.
Look at Fang Miaolan's appearance, although she is nearly thirty, her appearance is still very beautiful; the dress on her body is exquisitely embroidered, I don't know if she embroidered it herself, the whole person is full of elegance, and she is still beautiful. Has the tenderness of a little daughter.She was born in a scholar's family, so she should know a few words.
With such a good condition, if he hadn't dragged a daughter along, or married another official, he might be able to climb high.
Mrs. Li thought about it, and asked a matchmaker tomorrow, of course, she had to focus on choosing a good one. If she married someone who was not good, Fang Yuan might not agree.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Li pushed Fang Yuan, who was sleeping soundly, and wanted to discuss with him.But Fang Yuan was drunk, he just waved his hands in a daze, regardless of Li Shi's anxiety.
Mrs. Li sighed, but finally fell asleep in a daze.
On the second day, Mrs. Li took a few bolts of new brocade cloth to make clothes for Fang Miaolan, telling her to live at home with peace of mind, and then quietly asked the nanny to inquire about a reputable matchmaker.
Fang Miaolan was very embarrassed when she got the new cloth, thinking that she didn't need new clothes for herself, she only made a suit for Zhou Lang, and the rest of the cloth was used for embroidery, and she sold it to save herself or rent or buy a small house to live in.
She could also see that the Fang's house was crowded. When her younger brother and two children grew up, how could she afford to stay in the Fang's house?
Zhou Lang didn't know Fang Miaolan's plan, so he just got up early in the morning to practice the exercises, and then waited for Itachi to pick her up to visit Huang Yaoshi's house.
In my impression, Huang Yaoshi lived on Peach Blossom Island, but she didn't know that he still had a house in Jiaxing.
Not long after breakfast, Itachi came to pick up Zhou Lang.
When Zhou Lang went out, Mrs. Li hesitated to speak.
She wanted to say that the girl should not run around when she is old, but Zhou Lang is not her daughter, and he has worshiped a martial artist as a master. It doesn't matter anymore.
Huang Yaoshi's house is in another street, not very far away.It was only after Zhou Lang entered the house that he realized that it was a rather small courtyard, with only three or four wing rooms. He vaguely saw someone cleaning the house.
"Master rented this small yard last night for a month." Pointing to the cleaner, he introduced: "This is the neighbor next door, Master invites them to clean when they are free on weekdays, and cook three meals a day. "
"The yard you rented?" Zhou Lang was surprised. She thought Huang Yaoshi really had a house in Jiaxing, but she didn't expect it to be rented last night.
It seems that Huang Yaoshi should know that Fang's family has no place for him to live in, so he made such an argument.
However, even if you live in Jiaxing for a few days, you can stay in a hotel, but Huang Yaoshi rented a small yard and hired someone to clean and cook, as if he was staying for a while.
Zhou Lang rubbed his little chin thoughtfully.
Huang Yaoshi didn't know where he went, and he disappeared for several days, leaving Itachi alone to practice in the small yard and watch the gate.
Zhou Lang went to Itachi to practice martial arts with him every morning, or to go shopping or something.Peach Blossom Island does not have so many bustling people and streets full of gadgets.
One day, my aunt Li suddenly said that she would invite Fang Miaolan to drink tea.
When Zhou Lang was not at home, Fang Miaolan would usually do embroidery in her room, and sometimes she would be in a daze, thinking about her life on Peach Blossom Island.
There are no outsiders on Peach Blossom Island, and the place is huge. She often goes out for a stroll, or fiddles with some flowers and plants. She is not worried at all about any villains, or whether she will be gossiped about.
But living in Fang's house is not so cheap.
Mrs. Li asked Fang Miaolan to go out for tea, Fang Miaolan was about to go out to relax, so naturally she agreed.
The place to drink tea is on the corner of a busy street.It is not only connected to the market, but also because it is at the corner of the alley, it is very quiet.
Zhou Lang was tired of walking with Itachi, when he suddenly saw Mrs. Li and Fang Miaolan, he wanted to go up and say hello.Followed all the way into the tea house, and was about to go to the elegant seat on the second floor separated by bamboo curtains, but saw a gentleman with the appearance of a gentleman going upstairs, going to Fang Miaolan's seat.
Zhou Lang hurriedly pulled Itachi to sit next to him.
"Sister, don't we go say hello?" Itachi looked at the private seat next to him in a daze, not knowing why Zhou Lang changed his mind again.
Zhou Lang said: "Don't worry, listen to what they have to say first."
Fang Miaolan came to this teahouse to drink tea, but a strange man came to drink tea with her, which made Zhou Lang think of the word "blind date".
He only heard the scholar introduced himself in a gentle manner, and Mrs. Li enthusiastically introduced Fang Miaolan, and asked the waiter in the shop to serve cakes and tea, as if he wanted to talk freely.
Fang Miaolan pursed her lips in embarrassment and didn't say much, just drinking tea with her head down.
When the waiter went upstairs to refill tea, he saw Zhou Lang and Itachi two little dolls sitting upstairs. He thought it was someone's child who ran out to play, and was about to drive them away, but saw Itachi took out a small baby from his waist purse. With a few pennies, he said to the waiter in the shop, "Give me a pot of fruit tea, and another pastry." Then he asked Zhou Lang, "What do you want to eat?"
Zhou Lang was busy listening to the corner, he didn't care what to eat, so he ordered red bean cake casually.
After a while, Mrs. Li said that she would go home to see her child, leaving Fang Miaolan and the scholar to drink tea in the private seat.Fang Miaolan also wanted to go back. She didn't know about it, but she met a strange man rashly, and felt very embarrassed.
Besides, this man is thin and weak. Although he is a scholar, his literary talent is unknown. Compared with... her former husband... Fang Miaolan was shocked when she thought about it, and thought of Huang Yaoshi for no reason.
She knew that she had a good impression of Huang Yaoshi in her heart, and she became more and more ashamed of this strange man, and her face turned red.
The scholar on the opposite side also has delicate features and delicate features, but he fits the image of a popular scholar at the moment.Seeing that Fang Miaolan blushed, he thought she was satisfied with her image, so he had a serious smile in his eyes, and began to look at Fang Miaolan.
The virtuous lady sits quietly, her face is pink, she is a little bit elegant, a little bit cute, the scholar likes it more and more, thinking in her heart, maybe I can go back and count the number of places to hire immediately.
He is the same as Fang Miaolan, his ex-wife is gone, and he only has a young son under his knees. There is no need for the two of them to dislike the other, they are a perfect match.
Zhou Lang listened carefully, only to hear the scholar vaguely say: "If Miss Fang agrees, I'll spend two days..."
That's it?Zhou Lang was shocked!
It's been less than a few minutes since the two met, and they haven't said a few words yet!
No, no, there is Huang Yaoshi!
Zhou Lang was anxious when he heard it, and was about to run to the next door to stop it, but was grabbed by Itachi, and stuffed a piece of red pastry into his hand.
"Don't worry, just listen to what Aunt Fang has to say." After hearing this, Itachi probably understood what was going on.
Itachi knew something about Zhou Lang's desire to match Fang Miaolan and Huang Yaoshi, but he didn't care about these things.No matter whether Fang Miaolan and Huang Yaoshi are together or not, Itachi feels that Aunt Fang is still Aunt Fang, Master is still Master, there is no difference.
Zhou Langzheng felt hungry, he ate the pastry in a hurry, drank tea and continued to listen.
Fang Miaolan's voice was as quiet as a mosquito, and Zhou Lang listened intently for a while before he heard her say: "Please allow me to go back and think about it."
Fortunately, I didn't agree immediately, otherwise wouldn't it be ugly to regret it later?
The scholar had a good temper, he didn't talk about the marriage proposal, he continued to say a few family stories, talked about poetry, books and love affairs, which made Fang Miaolan laugh a little.
Zhou Lang sighed, turned around and ate the red bean cake, squeezed Itachi's arm, and complained: "What's so good about the scholar, but he can read a few sour poems, how can he compare to the master, he is good at martial arts, and he is proficient in the piano Chess, calligraphy and painting, and five elements."
"Master is good." Itachi nodded in agreement, thinking in his heart that Zhou Lang likes all-round talents like his master. It seems that he wants to learn all the skills of his master, so that Zhou Lang will be happy.
Hearing the conversation between the scholar and Fang Miaolan, he saw that they were going out for a stroll.Zhou Lang was curious and worried that the scholar had abducted Fang Miaolan, so he dragged Itachi along to follow him, not thinking at all that Huang Yaoshi assigned her a daily task of writing large characters, and she hadn't finished today's part.
As for Itachi, when he was waiting for Zhou Lang to come to him this morning, he had already finished writing the big characters.He would get up before dawn every day to practice his calligraphy without any delay for a day, nor would it prevent him from eating, drinking and having fun with Zhou Lang.
If Zhou Lang knew that Itachi was so diligent, he would be so happy or feel sorry for his hard work.Or, would she whine that she didn't finish her homework?
