Chapter 27 Jinjiang First Release Chapter 27 Fang Xiucai was so happy...
Yu Qinglong wouldn't have been surprised if his elder brother hadn't been talking about what happened at the Fang family that morning.
But he was absolutely sure that Fang Shu had met his elder brother in the morning and knew about their trip.
Knowing that they were going to town, he still lent them the cow, but now he is rushing over in a mule cart. What does this mean?
Fang Shu was so nervous that sweat appeared on his forehead, and he felt guilty when Yu Qinglong looked at him.
Fortunately, the eldest brother came to the rescue and asked, "Brother guarding the city, are you going to the town too?"
Fang Shu said, "Yes, Brother Yu. I suddenly remembered something I needed to do, so I came out. Oh, by the way, this is my good friend, Wu Sheng, courtesy name Changjie. Changjie, this is Brother Yu from the Yu Qing family in Shangxi Village, and his younger brother."
When talking about his younger brother, Fang Shu glanced at Yu Qinglong. Yu Qinglong nodded slightly towards Wu Sheng and simply said, "Brother Changjie is polite."
No more was said after that.
Fang Shu couldn't help but think back to the first time he'd seen Yu Qinglong by the Nan River. Yu Qinglong had only told him his last name, Yu, without saying much else. Yu Qinglong hadn't shown any of the shyness of a man meeting a man. He'd simply given him a cold look, not even panicking when he saw him relieve himself.
But Yu Qinglong was not indifferent. He helped him move the stones when he asked him to. Now he made such a beautiful bookmark for him!
If it weren't for this bookmark, how could he dare to chase after me like this?
Wu Sheng then said, "Brother Yu, you are polite. Brother Xiao, you are polite. My family and the Shoucheng family are old friends. We grew up together. If you need anything from me, Wu Sheng, you can always come to me. I also live in Xiaxi Village, and I own the Wuyi Blacksmith Shop in town."
Yu Qingjia said, "Thank you, Brother Changjie."
Wu Sheng said, "Brother Yu, you're too polite. Are you guys rushing to town to do some business?"
Yu Qing's family briefly explained the situation. Wu Sheng then realized that the rice dumplings he'd eaten that morning were actually made by them. He smiled and glanced at Fang Shu. Seeing Fang Shu's growing discomfort, he asked, "How about I lend my mule cart to Brother Yu and the others? Otherwise, it might take until noon for the salted egg yolks to get to town, and selling them wouldn't be easy. A mule can go faster."
Fang Shu thought it made sense and asked Yu Qingjia what he thought. Yu Qingjia turned to look at Yu Qinglong and asked, "What do you think, little brother?"
Yu Qinglong said directly to Wu Sheng, "Thank you, Brother Changjie. We won't be polite then."
Wu Sheng thought he was an interesting man, with a graceful demeanor and a bright, courageous look. He said, "If you are Shoucheng's friends, you are my friends too. Don't be polite."
Yu Qingjia and Yu Qinglong were about to load their belongings onto the mule cart. Fang Shu quickly stopped them and said, "Let me do it."
Yu Qingjia and Wu Sheng suppressed their laughter. Yu Qinglong looked Fang Shu up and down and asked, "Aren't you afraid of spraining your back again?"
Fang Shu suddenly felt a burning sensation on his face, but he said with a stiff upper lip, "It's okay, I'm fine now!"
After saying that, he picked up the wooden barrel and moved it onto the mule cart. It was a bit difficult to move, but at least it helped. Then he turned around and saw Yu Qinglong moving the stone base onto the mule cart!
Oh my God, this is too... too powerful!
Fang Shu suddenly felt a little useless.
But no matter what, the goods were dumped onto the mule cart, so the drivers naturally had to switch. However, this would slow them down, and perhaps by the time they reached the town, Yu Qinglong and his men would have arrived long before them.
Wu Sheng obviously realized this, and said, "Oh no! I suddenly remembered that someone is going to my house to get a hoe this afternoon, and I need to be home alone. Guard the city! How about you go to town with Brother Yu and the others, and I'll take the salted egg yolk back?"
Fang Shu: “…”Brother, you are so deliberate!
But he really wanted to talk to Yu Qinglong, so he asked Yu Qinglong, "I wonder if it's convenient for you guys, Brother Yu?"
It was hard to say whether Yu Qing's family was convenient or not, as it was related to his younger brother. But no matter what, Fang Shu had borrowed the oxcart, and the mule cart was used because of Fang Shu, so he couldn't refuse, so he said, "Of course it's convenient."
Wu Sheng said on the spot: "In that case, I will hurry back as soon as possible. Brother Yu, Brother Xiao, we will see each other again in the future."
Yu Qingjia thanked them again and watched Wusheng drive away in his ox cart. He walked very fast, as if he was afraid they would regret it.
Fang Shu got on the mule cart. It wasn't very big, and with the waterwheel and the rice dumplings, plus three grown men sitting on it, it wasn't crowded, but it wasn't spacious either. If it wasn't spacious, they would be closer.
Originally, Yu Qingjia sat in the front left seat driving the cart, and Yu Qinglong sat on the raised part of the right wheel hub, slightly holding the wooden barrel and waterwheel to prevent them from falling over when the cart was bumpy.
Fang Shu wanted to sit opposite Yu Qinglong, but he wondered if that would seem too abrupt, so he simply sat on the front right side, each sitting on one side with Yu Qinglong.
He had his back to Yu Qinglong, but they were less than an arm's length apart. Yu Qinglong sat high enough that he could reach him with his hand.
He had never dared to get so close before. The most recent time they had been together was when they were moving stones for the first time. At that time, he didn't know Yu Qinglong was his brother, so he offended him.
And now...
Yu Qinglong looked at the scholar, who was tense and couldn't relax at all, and asked with his chin propped up, "Master Fang, don't you usually study?"
Fang Shu didn't expect him to speak first. He was stunned for a moment, then replied very seriously, "Of course I do. But I usually read more at night and in the morning."
"oh."
"Um... I really like those bookmarks. Thank you, Brother Long, for your kindness."
"You're welcome. Are the zongzi delicious?"
"It's delicious. I ate two before I came here."
"So how much do you think this zongzi would cost in town to get people to buy it?"
"That...it depends on how much it costs to make one of these dumplings. If you ask me to buy one, I'll still buy it for four or five cents. If it's more than five cents, I'll be a little hesitant. How much do you plan to sell one for, Long Ge'er?"
"Let's try selling it for four cents first. If no one buys, we can lower it to three cents." Fang Shu said that five cents was acceptable because the Fang family was relatively well-off, but not everyone had so much land at home and could still be exempt from tax.
"Four cents is fine." Fang Shu turned his head as he said this, and just happened to notice that Yu Qinglong's left index finger was tied with a strip of cloth. "Brother Long, what's wrong with your hand?"
"nothing."
"He went to study with Doctor Mo in the mornings recently, and came back in the afternoons to rush to make that bookmark for you, fearing he wouldn't be able to give it to you in time for the Dragon Boat Festival. Then he accidentally stabbed a piece of meat with the carving knife."
Yu Qingjia still felt sorry for his brother, so he quickly took the opportunity to say, "It's been two or three days and he's still not fully recovered."
Fang Shu's heart suddenly tightened. His fingers were connected to his heart; how painful would it be to poke a piece of flesh out? But he couldn't bring himself to take a look, so he asked, "Have you applied the medicine?"
Yu Qinglong said he had been there.
Fang Shu said, "That's good. But be careful not to get them wet. Don't worry, Long Ge'er, I will take good care of those bookmarks."
"You don't have to take too good care of it," Yu Qinglong said. "If you want to keep it and only look at it occasionally, it's better to use it. That way it won't be wasted."
Fang Shu had originally thought of keeping it and taking it out to look at it later when he remembered, because he really couldn't bear to use it, fearing it would be damaged accidentally. A set of bookmarks, made just for him, something money couldn't buy, and just the thought of the thoughtfulness made him feel very happy.
He suspected that Yu Qinglong had noticed his inner thoughts, otherwise how could he say it out loud?
But since Yu Qing was at home, some questions were difficult to ask, so she could only chat with Yu Qinglong about other things.
He found that Yu Qinglong didn't like to laugh very much. When he heard something interesting, he would just slightly curl up the corners of his mouth, and the smile rarely reached his eyes.
He couldn't tell what he was thinking, but this feeling of mystery was attracting him more and more.
Yu Qinglong wasn't really thinking about anything special. He was just wondering whether he should marry Fang Shu.
At first, he hadn't thought much about it, having never imagined the Fang family would agree to his terms. Now that they had, and Fang Shu had come so eagerly to help his family, if he said he still didn't want to marry, it would be a bit of a mean-spirited act, and in his opinion, it would be no different from playing a trick on them.
If Fang Shu was a scheming idiot playing a trick on him, it would be fine; he could play him off without any burden. But this guy looked so warm and sincere, and he couldn't do anything bad to him.
Getting married is fine, it’s just about living together, but what about having children?
But if I don't get married, it may be difficult to meet such a person again in the future.
Even if he did succeed in becoming a doctor, the path to medical practice was filled with uncertainties. Could he leave his entire family behind and live in a remote area? This place, a hundred miles from his registered residence, required him to open a road. He wanted to leave the countryside, but could he endure being alone? And where would he go after leaving? Where would he live?
Many problems that are simple in modern times are extremely difficult here.
Moreover, humans are social animals. Although his soul was not directly connected to the Yu family, they were now family. Moreover, after nearly two months of getting along with them, he had become accustomed to their presence.
It’s really difficult to think about it.
Fang Shu then handed him a handkerchief: "Long'er, wipe the sweat off your face."
The handkerchief was light blue, embroidered with bamboo, the workmanship quite good. Yu Qinglong was about to say no, but then he saw Fang Shu had folded it neatly and kept it very clean. He hadn't used it himself, but Fang Shu had handed it to him, so Yu Qinglong took it and asked, "Who gave it to you?"
Fang Shu sat up straight on the spot: "Don't get me wrong, this is made by my mother. She said that I'm not allowed to accept handkerchiefs casually. She was afraid that I had never used one before and would be tempted to accept it, so she made one for me first."
Yu Qinglong suddenly said, "I don't know how to embroider."
Fang Shu said, "It's okay, my mother can do it."
Yu Qinglong said: "My cooking is not good either."
Fang Shu said, "It's okay, my mother cooks delicious food."
Yu Qinglong: "..." Did your mother expel your scholar title in your previous life? Why are you trying to trick her like this?!
Fang Shu also realized that what he said was a bit rude, so he said, "We can learn from my mother together."
Yu Qinglong didn't say anything else, but he didn't return the handkerchief to Fang Shu either.
But it was not until he arrived in town that he finally got the answer to the question of whether or not he should be with Fang Shu.
Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, and there will indeed be a market on that day. However, due to the heat during the day, many people come early and leave immediately after the market is over. They register and pay the stall fee, but don't see many people coming.
Yu Qinglong squatted behind the bucket, thinking he should hawk his wares. He was just thinking of words to praise his rice dumplings when he heard someone next to him shout, "Zongzi! Fragrant and sticky chicken dumplings! Only four cents each!"
Fang Shu actually took out a zongzi and shouted, "Big zongzi with chicken, glutinous rice, and mushrooms! Big sister, can you buy two for the kids to try?"
A woman came over, holding a little boy, and asked, "Can you make it cheaper?"
Fang Shu said, "Two for seven coins, three for ten coins."
The woman said, "Give me one first. If it tastes good, I'll have three."
Yu Qinglong quickly took out a piece of horseweed and untied the rope. The woman gave the child a bite and asked, "Is it delicious, Song'er?"
The little boy said, "Delicious! Mom, they smell so good. Can I buy a few more?"
The woman took a bite herself and found it truly delicious. It wasn't sweet, and the first bite was a little strange. But it was delicious. She took out sixteen coins and asked, "Will you sell me five for sixteen coins?"
Yu Qinglong took four more and gave them to the other party.
At this time, the eldest sister asked: "Just hold it like this? Don't you have a paper package? I need to buy other things."
Yu Qinglong didn't make much money from each zongzi, so he hadn't even thought about preparing packaging. Fang Shu took the horseweed string he had just untied, passed it through the string that bound the zongzi, and tied it for her, making a handle: "Take it, big sister. It's convenient to carry this way."
The eldest sister smiled and said, "That's a good idea, okay."
Fang Shu said, "After you finish eating, tell your neighbors to come and buy some. We're only selling this today, and it'll be gone tomorrow."
The eldest sister was a straightforward person. She said "OK" and took the child away.
Yu Qinglong looked at the sixteen coins and took out some spare horse-line ropes: "How come you shout so smoothly?"
Fang Shu whispered, "I went to the provincial capital to take the exam before, and when I came back I didn't have enough money, so I wrote calligraphy and sold it."
"Someone buys calligraphy written by a scholar?" It's not that he looks down on people, but in the provincial capital, scholars should be uncommon. It's not a famous calligraphy or painting, so how could anyone buy it?
"That depends on what it's written about. I copy scriptures and sell them. My handwriting is pretty decent, so people still buy them."
“Is it expensive?”
"It's not expensive, a thousand-word scripture costs only fifteen cents, but it's enough to keep me from starving."
"You didn't spend the money your mother gave you on some fun gadgets and that's why you have no money for food?"
"How, how is this possible!!!"
Fang Shu suddenly felt guilty. Could Yu Qinglong be his nemesis? How could he even guess that? He had indeed been forced to sell calligraphy because he had bought some small things.
Yu Qinglong knew he was right when he saw him like this, and warned him, "If you really marry me... you might not have any private money in the future."
Fang Shu looked around and said, "No, no! I'm happy to be controlled by you!"
At this moment, Yu Qing went to get water and feed grass for the mule. Since he was not around, Fang Shu became a little bolder.
Seeing that he was still happy despite suffering a loss, Yu Qinglong felt that this guy was indeed a bit cute, so he said half seriously and half jokingly: "Then keep shouting. If you can sell a hundred dumplings today, I will grant your wish."
"Do you know what I'm thinking?"
"If it means moving up the agreed time, then it is knowledge."
"You said it, don't go back on your word!"
"No regrets."
"Okay, then you wait for me here!"
Fang Shu ran off after saying that. Yu Qinglong wondered if this guy had secretly asked a friend to help him buy it, and then paid for it himself.
He felt that Fang Shu was capable of doing this.
Sure enough, after a while Fang Shu came with two people.
One is short and fat, the other is of medium height. Standing together with Fang Shu, they are like a downed wireless network signal.
Fang Shu said, "These two are my classmates and good friends, Ma Qinsui and Yan Xikuan. I asked them to help me sell it. Is that not a violation?"
Yu Qinglong’s opinion doesn’t count.
The fatter one was Yan Xikuan, who asked Fang Shu, "Shoucheng, is he really your relative?"
Fang Shu said, "Yes."
Ma Qinsui said, "In that case, then there's no need to waste time. But we have to try one first, so that we can have something to say."
Yu Qinglong roughly understood what he meant and gave one to each person.
Fang Shu took one back and said, "One is enough for two people to try. They have already had lunch by now."
Yan Xikuan said: "I'll pick you up!"
Even so, no one objected. They broke off a zongzi and took a bite, finding it incredibly delicious. While the chicken pieces weren't large, the glutinous rice had absorbed the broth, making each bite rich and fragrant. After finishing half, my mouth was watering!
Now you know how to sell it!
Yan Xikuan had a loud voice, perhaps because of his size, but he had a powerful voice. He shouted, "Zongzi! Sweet and glutinous chicken zongzi! Soaked up in chicken broth and marinated in flavor! One bite and you'll be filled with good health and happiness this Dragon Boat Festival! Only four cents each!"
Ma Qinsui, upon hearing this, also came up with a suitable phrase: "Zongzi! Chicken Zongzi cooked in fresh chicken broth! Replenishing Qi and calming the mind, strengthening tendons and bones, suitable for all ages! The perfect choice for your own Dragon Boat Festival meal or as a gift! Come and buy some and take a look! Don't miss it if you're passing by!"
After the two of them shouted, people actually started showing up. Yu Qinglong simply opened two of the boxes for passersby to try, and in less than an hour, he had sold another thirty-five. So, he'd already sold forty.
Most people buy three or six at a time. Most people buy six at a time because there may be more than three people in a family.
The ancients believed in having many children and a lot of blessings. A family usually had four or five people, and sometimes as many as seven or eight.
If it were any other time, I probably wouldn't be willing to buy it, but the festival is coming soon, so I can afford to spend ten or twenty cents.
After Yu Qingjia fed the mule and drank water, he came back with the bucket of water and saw that nearly half of the rice dumplings in the bucket had been eaten!
The market has its own rules, and animals aren't allowed inside. He queued up to get water and then had to go to the other end to feed the mule, which was why his visit took a while. He figured since it was the market, with so many people around, it shouldn't be a problem for his brother and Fang Shu to be together. He hadn't expected that not only would he have two more people helping him sell the zongzi, but he'd also sold so many!
"This is my eldest cousin," Fang Shu said. "His surname is Yu."
"Cousin, we are classmates and good friends who guarded the city. My name is Ma Cong, and my courtesy name is Qinsui. His name is Yan Shuo, and his courtesy name is Xikuan."
"Thank you, brothers, for coming to help." Yu Qingjia clasped his fists. As for being called his eldest cousin, he wisely didn't ask any further questions. He simply said, "Thank you both for your hard work."
"Brother, I'll go buy some herbal tea for everyone to quench their thirst."
Yu Qinglong took a few copper coins and went to a place not far away to buy herbal tea, which was not expensive. Fang Shu and his friend had been shouting for so long that their throats must be smoking.
He bought five bowls in total. After each person drank a bowl, he asked them to take a break and he took over the shouting.
At first, I was a little hesitant to shout, but when I saw there were still a lot of zongzi, I gave it my all and shouted, "Zongzi! Salty, fragrant and soft zongzi! After eating dates and beans, now it's time to eat some meat! After eating meat zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival, the family's wallet is getting heavier! Come and try it and see! There is also a water wheel for luck and fortune, give it a spin, and wealth will come rolling in!"
Yu Qinglong poured the large bucket of water his elder brother had brought into the groove in the stone base. As the waterwheel turned, the bucket would fill the groove with water, which would then flow into another stone trough. This trough led to a lower level, and the pressure of the water flowing out would act on the waterwheel to continue its rotation. However, its power was very weak, so it was a bit slow to push, and it might even stop mid-spin. But at least it could rotate for a while, which was quite a sight to behold.
When Yu Qinglong put it out, he knew the chances of it selling were slim. He couldn't sell it if it was too cheap, but if it was too expensive, no one would buy it. He just wanted to give it a shout-out since he had already moved it in.
During this time, only one person came to ask how much the waterwheel cost. When he heard that it was two taels, the man looked at it for a while, said nothing more, and left.
Most people still come here to buy rice dumplings.
Several people took turns shouting, and by the time of Shen time, ninety-five rice dumplings had been sold, and about three hundred and thirty coins were collected.
Seeing Fang Shu's face becoming more and more excited, Yu Qinglong said, "Why don't we just not sell the rest? Give some to Brother Yan and Brother Ma to take home for the holidays, and keep some for ourselves."
Fang Shu was shocked when he heard this: "But you said that once you sell a hundred..."
Yu Qinglong saw his anxious look and asked, "So what?"
Fang Shuxin said, let me propose marriage in advance!
But considering Yu Qinglong's reputation, how could he say that? He said sullenly, "Nothing."
Yan Xikuan said, "There's still quite a bit left. I live with my relatives, and our home isn't in this town. There's only two of us, and we can't eat all that. Should we keep selling it?"
Although he didn't know what he would get after selling a hundred of them, Fang Shu had told them that he must sell a hundred of them when he went to ask them for help.
Yu Qinglong said, "Okay, please excuse me, brothers. I'll sell it for another half an hour."
He had thought he wouldn't be able to sell many after a long time, but the business was much better than he had imagined. He had just been teasing Fang Shu, but he hadn't expected him to be so serious.
This character is really good.
But the sales were not so fast afterwards. I kept shouting until the evening hour, when some people started packing up their stalls and there were only 25 left.
Excluding the three that were served to the customers and the one that Yan Xikuan and Ma Qinsui ate first, a total of 121 were sold.
When I left, I took out 150 coins to make the calculation easier. So far, I've received about 425 coins. After deducting the original 260 coins, plus the 15 coins I paid for my stall at the market and the 5 coins I saved for the mule, I've still got a profit of 145 coins.
It's much better than expected.
Yu Qinglong said, "Let's take them this time. Give the remaining twenty-five to Brother Yan and Brother Ma, eight each, and give some to Brother Wu's family."
I borrowed the mule and walked such a long way, but I didn't even thank the owner properly.
Yan Xikuan and Ma Qinsui were delighted. They were just poor students, and they rarely ate meat. They hadn't gone home for the holiday because the journey would have taken too long, and returning empty-handed was awkward. Eight rice dumplings per person was a lot.
Yu Qinglong strung the rice dumplings together with a horse-linen string and brought them to them. "Thank you both for coming to help. I wish you a happy Dragon Boat Festival in advance."
Ma Qinshou said, "You are my cousin who is guarding the city, so it is only natural for you to help. We will not be polite then. Brother Yu, have a healthy Dragon Boat Festival."
Yan Xikuan asked, "Will Brother Xiaoyu come tomorrow?"
Yu Qinglong said, "I guess he won't come."
There are only so many people in a town, and selling so many is already an unexpected surprise. Even if more is sold, there is a high probability that not many will be sold.
It was also exhausting to be up all day like this, waking up before dawn, which at this time of year meant it was probably still the middle of the night. Plus, it was hot, and after shouting for so long, several people's voices had become hoarse to varying degrees. If we couldn't sell much tomorrow, it wouldn't be worth it.
Yan Xikuan said, "See you next time. My attendants and I will take our leave. Shoucheng, are you going home today or to our place?"
Fang Shu said dejectedly, "I have to go home."
Yan Xikuan and Ma Qinsui wanted to know what they would get after selling the 100 zongzi. Hearing that Fang Shu would not go to their place, Yan Xikuan asked, "When will you come to the town again?"
Fang Shu said, "After the teacher comes back in a few days."
The two classmates nodded, clasped their fists with Yu Qingjia and Yu Qinglong, and left first.
Yu Qingjia didn't know about the agreement on the 100 rice dumplings. Seeing Fang Shu looking a little listless, he asked, "Brother Shoucheng, are you okay?"
Fang Shu said, "Nothing. Brother, what do you think we should do with the waterwheel? Should we take it back or send it to Changjie's shop?"
"What do you think, little brother?"
"If it's really convenient, just send it to Brother Wu's shop. Someone might see it and ask about it. If it really can't be sold, we can talk about it later."
Fang Shu nodded, thinking it wasn't far, and suggested they just move it together, no need to bring a mule. Together, the three of them delivered the items to the Wu family blacksmith shop. The shop also had a small frontage, where a variety of swords, guns, and farm tools were hung, all on display. Customers could order items based on samples, or bring in drawings and have them made to order.
There happened to be an empty space on the counter, which was quite suitable for placing the water cart, so I put it there first.
Brother Wusheng's name is Wugong. When he saw Fang Shu, he asked him to leave the things without saying a word, very straightforwardly.
Yu Qinglong gave all the remaining rice dumplings to this family, and then went with his elder brother and Fang Shu to find a place to store the mule.
The eldest brother went to pay the five-cent storage fee. Fang Shu took the opportunity to ask Yu Qinglong, "Brother Long, do you really not hold true to what you said before?"
He looked truly pitiful. "Then can we stick with the one-month deadline?"
Yu Qinglong said: "No."
Fang Shu felt like the sky was falling.
Yu Qinglong then said, "A month is too long, and I'm too lazy to wait any longer. If you had exposed me right then and there, then my words wouldn't count, but you didn't, so they still count."
Fang Shu's eyes immediately lit up with joy: "Really?"
Yu Qinglong said, "If you don't want to, you can just pretend it's fake."
Fang Shu waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, of course I am willing! I am very willing!"
Yu Qinglong smiled and said nothing more.
It wouldn't be too difficult to spend a lifetime with such a sincere, kind-hearted and well-behaved person, even if they had no feelings for each other. Not to mention that he suddenly discovered today that this guy was actually very interesting and it seemed like they could get along well.
If you want to be a couple, the first prerequisite is to be able to have fun together.
It was a rare opportunity for him to finally feel like he had found friends in this era, and he had to cherish this opportunity no matter what.
As for children... in this day and age, unless he completely abstains from sex and lives alone for the rest of his life, it is almost impossible for him to be childless by relying on the contraceptive pills here.
Ancient contraceptive potions weren't as effective as they're portrayed in TV dramas. They were extremely cold, and usually resulted in injuries or even death. That's the reality.
So if he couldn't avoid it, all he had to do was try to make himself mentally accept it while ensuring a secure life, and then think about other things. If he still couldn't accept it in the end, then he had done his best, and at that time he would have to say sorry to Fang Shu.
Fang Shu was filled with joy, his lips wide open. Seeing Yu Qingjia approaching with the mule, he whispered, "Wait a moment, Long'er! I'll go buy some things and be back soon!"
Yu Qinglong didn't ask what they were going to buy, and Fang Shu ran away.
Yu Qingjia looked at the hurried figure and asked, "Where are you going, Brother Shoucheng?"
Yu Qinglong said: "I don't know, he said he was going shopping."
Not long after, Fang Shu came running over with two pieces of braised pork belly! He gave them the larger one and said, "Brother, Long Ge'er, this is for you. Take it with your wine tomorrow."
Yu Qingjia was too embarrassed to accept it: "Brother Shoucheng, we have caused you a lot of trouble today, we can't accept it."
This piece of braised pork belly costs dozens of coins.
Fang Shu said, "Don't be polite, big brother. From now on... from now on, we are a family."
When he said this, he looked at Yu Qinglong and couldn't hide his smile.
Yu Qingjia immediately understood what was going on.
Yu Qinglong took the meat and asked, "Are you that happy?"
Fang Shu nodded heavily.
Yu Qinglong was infected by the joy in his eyes, and felt a different kind of happiness in his heart that he had not felt for a long time.
Perhaps this was a good thing. No path in this world was completely smooth. No matter which path he took, there would always be gains and regrets. So why not try the path that offered more challenges? More challenges meant more possibilities.
Yu Qinglong gently tapped Fang Shu's forehead: "What are you still waiting for? Why don't you get in the car?"
Fang Shu foolishly touched the place where he was hit, got into the car, and felt so happy that his heart was bubbling with joy.
He finally! Finally has his fiancé!
But they were happy, while two people were worried.
Ma Qinfu said while eating a rice dumpling: "I think this person guarding the city probably likes Brother Xiaoyu."
Yan Xikuan choked and coughed, his face flushing red. "But, but Brother Xiaoyu looks like a man like us! Could it be that you saw his mark on his forehead?"
Ma's attendant said, "No, that's why I'm worried about the city guard. He, he obviously has a habit of wearing short sleeves!"
Yan Xikuan was shocked: "Then, if Aunt Fang knew about this, wouldn't she break his legs?"
Of course! That's three generations of a single-line inheritance!
The two brothers looked at each other and thought in unison: It's over! I'm afraid the future of our good brothers will be extremely difficult!
