The rest of the elders' belongings were handed over to Xu Jiang, who was to be the most appropriate in distributing them.
Although these gifts are not expensive, they are rare. They are all special products from the barbarian lands that are rarely seen in the capital. There are a few of each kind, and they are very particular, which shows the author's thoughtfulness.
And it won’t be difficult for the person receiving the gift.
After all these gifts were given, the name "A Miao" became known to everyone in Huailiu Lane.
Everyone who mentioned him was full of praise, and some even wanted to introduce their daughters or relatives to him as a daughter-in-law.
Wan Qingmiao laughed and refused all the offers, saying that he was already engaged. He also praised his wife-to-be to the highest praises, making others feel embarrassed to introduce him to anyone else.
Xu Jiang asked Xizhi, "Is Zhenji really engaged?" Why hasn't she heard about it?
Xizhi just smiled and shook her head.
Xu Jiang was speechless, and then thought that being able to praise the 'wife-to-be' from head to toe was also a kind of ability.
Her younger brother might actually be a good businessman.
By the time the gifts were delivered, the sun had already set.
Shopkeeper Wang was called home by Xiao Wang for dinner. Liang Mo finished work and smoke rose from the neighbors' houses.
Lou Yunchun was wearing a business uniform, with a belt hanging from his waist, and he came in the slanting sunlight, which made Wan Qingmiao stunned.
"Zhenji." Lou Yunchun called.
Wan Qingmiao came back to his senses and immediately ran forward, "Brother-in-law, you're back!"
When going to Chongzhou to pick up his mother, Wan Qingmiao's jealous and stingy look when he bullied Lou Yunchun was still vivid in his mind. He was completely different from his servile look at this moment, which made Xu Jiang very puzzled.
"Mother, what happened to Zhenji?"
Xizhi smiled and said, "He has been in awe of government officials since he was little, so seeing Xiaolou dressed like this, he naturally became obedient."
Xu Jiang burst out laughing. This younger brother is very flexible and knows how to adapt to the current situation.
With Lou Yunchun's return, everyone is complete.
After Xu Jiang closed the shop, the family went to the courtyard where Xizhi lived, chatting and laughing, to welcome Wan Qingmiao.
During the meal, Wan Qingmiao chattered about what he had seen and heard along the way, and pulled Lou Yunchun aside to ask him questions about the Dali Temple, the strange cases he had handled, and his experience in Beiting.
Lou Yunchun answered patiently.
In just one meal, Wan Qingmiao went from being afraid of him to respecting him, and from respecting him to being submissive.
Lou Yunchun listened to his flattery, drank the wine he poured, and glanced at Xu Jiang. He thought that these two were indeed siblings, both of them had an inexplicable obsession with his official uniform.
If I had known that this official uniform would be useful to Wan Qingmiao, I should have taken one with me to Chongzhou to avoid being squeezed out.
With Wan Qingmiao calling him "brother-in-law" over and over again, Lou Yunchun got drunk as expected.
Xu Jiang let Wan Qingmiao stay in the courtyard to accompany his mother, and placed his followers in the Yunlai Inn. It was not until late at night that she took Lou Yunchun and Yinyin home to rest.
After returning to the house, Xu Jiang was afraid of disturbing the elders' rest, so he only asked Yin Yin to inform Liu Mei of their return, and then took Zui Mao back to the room.
Fortunately, Lou Yunchun was a good drinker and did not make a fuss even after getting drunk. He allowed Xu Jiang to change his clothes and wipe his body, and then he went to bed to rest obediently.
Before going to bed, Xu Jiang was afraid that he would have a headache the next day after waking up from the alcohol, so she gave him two pills of the hangover medicine given by Wu Zhi, and then hugged him and fell asleep peacefully.
In the middle of the night, I felt someone was playing tricks on me, so I opened my eyes in a daze.
"What's wrong?" Xu Jiang touched his forehead and asked, "Headache? Or something uncomfortable?"
Lou Yunchun rubbed her hand, then pulled it to his lips and pecked it, with a dark and hot light in his eyes.
He said in a hoarse voice, "I'm hungry."
Xu Jiang saw his demeanor and her mind immediately cleared. She carefully withdrew her hand, retreated to the bedside, and stammered, "There's soup simmering in the kitchen. I'll go get it for you."
After saying that, he was about to get out of bed.
But as soon as she stretched out one foot, it was held down by the cat's claws. Then the cat carried her into its nest, brought it to a boil over high heat, and simmered it over low heat until it became a soft and sweet soup.
The next morning, before daybreak, Lou Yunchun went to court. He was clingy and reluctant before leaving, and was finally thrown out by Xu Jiang with a pillow.
After the others left, Xu Jiang clasped her hands together and sincerely thanked the saint for his diligence in saving her life.
Then he lay on the bed with a sense of despair, staring at the ceiling in a daze, his mind puzzled.
This is the third time. Where did Lou Damao's "hunger disease" come from?
No, she had to go ask Wu Zhi after daybreak.
I'm afraid he's got some kind of illness.
