Chapter 207 Knowing the cold and the warmth

When Qin Li returned home that day, she went to Bai Yunyao to find Bai Yunyao and said to Bai Yunyao:

"I heard from Yuan Xi that he has a friend who is a Fanbang businessman. He spends more silver in Jiayu City this year. In order to live in Jiayu City for a few more days, that man wanted to sell some jewelry cheaper and exchange for some silver flowers. Otherwise, go and have a look with me?"

When Bai Yunyao heard this good news, she happily agreed, "Okay. Sister Li'er, thank you for telling me about this. You know, I don't like to wear jewelry, but I'm about to marry A Chang, so I'll just go buy some amethyst jewelry."

Before that, every time Qin Li heard Bai Yunyao mention He Chang, most of the time, she would talk about Chang'er's younger brother.

But today, Qin Li heard it very clearly. When Bai Yunyao mentioned He Chang, she was talking about "A Chang". She was happy for Bai Yunyao and also took the opportunity to tease Bai Yunyao and said, "Oh, when did your Chang'er brother grow up?"

Is it no longer the younger brother in Yun'er's eyes, but a man who knows coldness and warmth?

Bai Yunyao didn't feel shy at all, but looked at Qin Li calmly and asked:

"I haven't even asked why the third young master hugged you in the inn and hugged you in front of the female shopkeeper. But I didn't expect that today, you asked me about the matter between me and my brother Chang'er first. If you asked me to answer, I would like to know how long I will have to wait before I can drink the wedding wine between you and the third young master?"

Qin Li glanced at Bai Yunyao shyly and said, "You are really."

A moment later, Qin Li and Bai Yunyao were on a carriage and went to a small boat in Jiayu Port to select jewelry.

The small boat belongs to Jiayu Shibo. It is actually an antique pleasure boat, but compared with the Qinfang pleasure boat, it is indeed smaller.

Qin Li guessed that Yuan Xi said that this ship was a small boat, maybe it was because of those reasons.

When he arrived at the lobby on the first floor of the pleasure boat, Qin Li saw a woman in purple clothes, who was tidying up the jade bracelets placed on the counter.

Since Yuan Xi knew that she and Bai Yunyao were coming, she greeted the relevant personnel on the ship in advance and asked them to place all the jewelry that Jin Youde placed here in a conspicuous position.

Just wait until she and Bai Yunyao arrive, they can choose happily.

In the hall on the first floor, not only are there jewelry, but also some spices, as well as some domestic gems made from Blue Moon, red, blue and green. The number of gems is dazzling.

Faced with so many gems, jewelry and other objects, Qin Li chose an amethyst necklace with a heart-shaped pendant. He wanted to give this amethyst necklace to Bai Yunyao.

She heard Bai Yunyao say that after the Lantern Festival next year, the third young master's master will come to Jiangnan and then go to build the bridge. At that time, he will bring He Chang to build the bridge with him.

That means that He Chang will have a job to do in a while.

When a man starts a career, he naturally has to start a family earlier.

For this reason, He Chang knelt in front of his adoptive mother, Zhu, and asked her to accept his marriage into the Bai family as his son-in-law.

In the Daning Dynasty, the son-in-law who married into the family had no status.

Zhu didn't want He Chang to suffer a little grievance. Before that, Zhu almost felt crazy when he saw He Chang being hurt by Zhai Jinlan. Now, she only hoped that He Chang and Yun'er could live together smoothly. As for other things, Zhu didn't want to think too much.

Zhu quickly pulled He Chang up, glanced at him awkwardly, and said:

"Who asked you to marry into the family?"

After hearing this, He Chang thought that Zhu did not allow him to continue living in the Bai family, and he was even more reluctant to let him marry Bai Yunyao. He burst into tears in a hurry, but he was extremely unwilling to accept it and asked Zhu:

"Mom, what's wrong with the child? You can point out that the child must work hard to correct it, and it won't disappoint you and Ayun. But Mom doesn't say what's wrong with the child, but it's just that the child is not allowed to marry into the family. The child is not a person with a delicate mind, but how can he correct it?"

Zhu shook his head helplessly. This Chang'er is afraid that he will become a little stupid after reading too many books on sages?

She said so clearly. Can't Chang'er understand what she meant?

He Chang didn't hear Zhu's answer, but when he saw Zhu's head shaking, he felt very anxious and said:

"The child has lived in the Bai family since he was a child, enjoying the care of his mother and Ayun. He has enjoyed it for many years. The child just wants to stay in the Bai family and be filial to his mother with Ayun. I beg her to give her a chance and don't refuse to agree to the child's marriage, okay?"

Zhu saw that He Chang still didn't understand. He was really anxious and angry. He poked He Chang's forehead with the tip of his right index finger and blamed him: "You nerd."

"Mom, I'm not stupid. I've been cured under the careful care of you and Ayun. Don't worry, Mom, I'll never hurt my heart for those bad things."

There are many things to do in life, so why just add to your troubles to some irrelevant people or things?

Just as He Chang and Zhu were talking about this, Bai Yunyao, who had been hiding in the compartment and eavesdropping, ran to the living room all at once. He urgently asked Zhu to ask:

"Mom, you don't know A Chang. He is just too simple. He will not think too complicated when he thinks. Just say it out and let him relax."

"Yun'er, go back to the house, what's wrong with you?" Although Zhu knew her daughter's good intentions, she was Bai Yunyao's mother after all, so how could she not say Bai Yunyao a few words?

A woman, even if she wants to marry her favorite child, has to be more reserved, right?

Zhu even thought to herself whether it was because she was not strict enough in discipline on Yun'er on weekdays that made Yun'er so bold.

Seeing Bai Yunyao leaving the hall, Zhu reached out and patted He Chang on the shoulder. He Chang was still filled with tears when he looked at her. This made Zhu feel a little heartbroken and hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief to wipe the tears for He Chang.

"Chang'er, although you are not the baby born by your mother, you are raised by Wei'er. In Wei'er's heart, you are as close as Wei'er's biological baby, Yun'er. How could Wei'er be willing to let you marry into a marriage? Wei'er has already discussed with Yun'er, so let Yun'er marry you. This house will be yours and Yun'er's house in the future, and will be changed to He's family."

"Mom, I can't do it, I can't do it!" He Chang was ashamed and thought to himself that he had enjoyed the care of his adoptive mother and Bai Yunyao for many years and had never repayed them at all. How could he marry someone else's daughter and ask for someone else's property?

He did this, no matter whether others looked down on him or not, at least he would think in his heart that he looked down on him a little.

Zhu had raised He Chang for many years and could see He Chang's thoughts at a glance. The child was really a little stunned, and she was so anxious that she was stunned.

She only has Yun'er, and when she married Yun'er to He Chang, she would naturally give everything that belonged to Yun'er to He Chang. How could He Chang not understand such a simple truth?

In order to give He Chang a ulterior motive, after he had a job next year, he happily married Yun'er. Zhu said to He Chang:

"Aren't you going to work in the Ministry of Works? When the third young master's master comes to Jiayu Mansion, you can go to build a bridge with him and get a salary. Look, we have lived in our house for many years and it is a bit old. My mother and Yun'er are waiting for you to get some silver. Come back and renovate our house and add some furniture to make it more comfortable to live."
