  Chapter 588 Matchmaker

   Opposite upstairs.

A charming young woman stood in front of the window, pushed the window open with slender hands, revealing half of her charming face, her eyes were like a pool of clear springs, like poppies in full bloom, turning around on Zhu Ping'an's face, her cherry lips curled up. radian.

  Seeing Zhu Ping'an raised his head, the young woman stretched out a pink finger and hooked it, then closed the window.

  The coquettish red lips and charming eyes are born with a glamorous style, every frown, smile, and every move has a sultry atmosphere

   "I'm sorry, old man, I'll buy it next time."

  Zhu Ping'an looked away, put the watermelon in his hand back on the car, bowed his hands apologetically to the old melon seller, and then motioned for the boy to lead him upstairs. Not because of how charming the young woman is, but because of her identity.

The young woman on the second floor, Zhu Ping'an, had met once. The last time she came home by sea in Tianjin Port, she was standing next to Miss Yan Er, and she was choked by Li Shu for a long time. She was Yan Shifan's favorite concubine. Lai Niang.

  The ancient times are different from the modern times. Most of the girls don’t leave the gate. Now that Li Niang is upstairs, it is estimated that Yan Shifan is also upstairs, and the second floor has to go up by herself.

  Red bricks and green tiles, steep eaves, and several pavilions and pavilions connected in a row, constitute the "Baoxiangzhai" restaurant in front of you in the style of palace architecture. Two vermilion watches were erected by the door of the restaurant, and black lacquer branches were set up. The interior decoration of the restaurant was even more graceful and luxurious.

  Zhu Pingan followed the boy to the second floor, and the boy opened the door of the private room to invite Zhu Pingan in. After Zhu Pingan entered, he closed the door and waited outside.

   After entering the private room, Zhu Pingan was taken aback when he saw that there was only the charming young woman in the big private room.

Uh

  Why is there only Li Niang in the private room? ! Not even a girl, obviously abnormal.

  The plums in the melon field were cautious by the ancients. Lonely man and widow, living in the same room, if Yan Shifan misunderstood him, it would be difficult for him to explain...

  It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, Zhu Pingan came to a conclusion in his heart, and asked with a normal face, "Ping An has met Madam, what is Madam's order?"

   "Yo, Zhuangyuan Lang has a good memory, and he can still remember his family, unlike some heartless..." Li Niang held an embroidered handkerchief in her slender hands, covered her small mouth and smiled, her whole body was airy.

   "Madam was joking, what is Madam's order?" Zhu Pingan stood upright, clasped his hands and asked again.

"Why are you in such a hurry? I am afraid that my family will eat you. I heard that Zhuangyuan Lang is an expert in food appreciation, but it is a coincidence that my family just recruited a cook from the north today. Today, I specially ordered the cook to make a meal. Sit down and taste the table wine and dishes, and help me see if this cook is a good one." Li Niang blinked her watery eyes, pointed to a table of delicacies from mountains and seas, and slightly pursed her rosy lips.

  The ancients said: If there is nothing to show courteousness, it is either adultery or robbery.

   "Ping'an grew up eating whole grains, so he doesn't know how to appreciate food. I'm afraid I will disappoint my wife." Zhu Ping'an shook his head slightly, standing where he was and declined politely.

   "Hehe...Eating too many whole grains, doesn't the champion want to change to delicacies from mountains and seas?" Li Niang smiled lightly and said with a pun.

   It seems that there is something in the words?

  After Zhu Pingan heard the words, he was slightly taken aback, and then slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and replied solemnly, "Ping An has been used to eating whole grains since childhood, and he will not be used to it if he doesn't eat them for a day."

  From the moment he entered the door, Zhu Ping'an's words and deeds were polite, respectful and distanced, and his formulaic answers were full of a scholarly dullness, as if he didn't understand the style at all.

It's so boring, if I spend my whole life with this kind of person, I don't know what it will be like to be bored, I don't know why Lan Lan likes this kid, Li Niang glanced at Zhu Ping'an with her watery eyes, and then stroked the cheek Ruyu raised her chin a little bit, and gently opened her vermilion lips to ask another question, "I heard that you are already married in your hometown."

   "Madam is well informed, and Ping An is about to send a wedding invitation to Mr. Yan." Zhu Pingan answered with hands clasped as before.

While Zhu Pingan was talking with Yan Shifan's concubine Li Niang in the private room upstairs, the old watermelon seller downstairs was still shouting hard, and several groups of people came to ask about the price of the melon, but after learning the price of the melon, , all shook their heads disappointed and left. It's too expensive and not worth it. If you have valuable guests at home, it's okay to buy one. Usually, who would spend several times more money on this, it's better to wait a few more days until the watermelon is on the market before buying it.

  Upstairs in the private room, no matter how Li Niang insinuated or punned, Zhu Ping'an responded to all changes with the same attitude.

"Okay, I won't beat around the bush for you anymore. People go to high places, and water flows to low places. This truth must be understood by the champion man better than a woman like me. There is a girl in my relative's family, who is the first daughter of the family. The person looks even more beautiful than the fairy in the painting, not only gentle and considerate, but also knowledgeable and sensible, just came out of the cabinet this year and has not yet married. The slave family feels that only a talented man like Zhuangyuan Lang can be worthy of my relative's Jiaojiao."

  See the poor dagger in the picture.

   After Li Niang's several side attacks were all dismissed by Zhu Pingan's understatement, she changed her method and said her intentions directly.

   After finishing speaking, Li Niang stared straight at Zhu Pingan with starry eyes.

Uh

   Turned out to be a matchmaker for her relatives? ! This made Zhu Ping'an a little surprised, knowing that he was already married, he even played a matchmaker for himself! Do you really look like Chen Shimei? !

   "Thank you Madam for your love, but there is already a good wife in Ping'an's family, and the poor son of Ping'an's farm family is really not a good match. I dare not wrong your lady." Zhu Ping'an bowed and bowed, and declined apologetically.

   Rejected without even thinking about it? !

Li Niang glanced at Zhu Ping'an with her watery eyes, raised her eyebrows slightly, and still smiled at the corner of her mouth, "There is a saying that is good, there are people in the court who are easy to be officials. Zhuangyuanlang is worried about the memorial recently. , My relative has been an official in the court for a long time, and he is also a little bit thin in the Ministry of Justice. If Zhuangyuanlang and my relatives become in-laws, all he needs to do is pass a word to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and Zhuangyuanlang will no longer have to get angry about the memorial. With the aptitude of the number one scholar, if someone supports him in the court, I believe it will not be difficult to make it to the top."

  Coercion and temptation.

   "Thank you Madam for your concern. Ping An just got married and doesn't want to take a concubine yet." Zhu Pingan twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and bowed to salute again. As for the matter, even a matchmaker spends such a large amount of money! I'm married, and I'm not handsome, and it doesn't matter, there are more people who are better than me, so why waste time on myself.

   "Take a concubine?! Giggle" Li Niang covered her small mouth and giggled, and cast a mocking glance at Zhu Pingan, "Our family doesn't have a concubine yet."
