Xu Nuoyan saw that the reason for her mother and brother's loose attitude turned out to be because of Young Master Yang. She immediately said a lot of things that Young Master Yang had done to help her, "Young Master Yang will stay in Dongli Villa in the future. You must trust his character. If You can ask him for help if you need help, it’s not like we’re unfamiliar with the place, right?”
Mrs. Zhou and Xu Nuoshan had their own thoughts and did not refute.
Happier to make a promise.
Early the next morning, she went out a little earlier than usual. As soon as she reached the gate of Zhuangzi, she saw Yang Erdan sitting on a bullock cart. She suddenly looked surprised and asked, "Second Young Master, are you going out?"
Yang Erdan pointed to the oxcart and said, "I'm going into the city. Do you want Miss Xu to come with me?"
Sit on it with a promise.
On the way, she kept talking about how to convince her mother and eldest brother to let her stay in Fucheng, and Yang Erdan didn't even have a chance to interrupt.
It wasn’t until he was almost at Zhenbao Pavilion that he took advantage of the opportunity and asked, “What else does Miss Xu like besides making hairpins?”
Xu Nuoyan was stunned for a moment, then thought carefully, "I still like my eldest brother to be successful!"
Yang Erdan: “I understand, please slow down.”
Soon after Xu Nuoyan entered Zhenbao Pavilion, the shopkeeper brought out a face, "Miss Xu, can you see if this face can be repaired?"
Xu Nuoyan took the thing and looked at it carefully, frowning, "Why did such a precious emerald phoenix hairpin break?"
The shopkeeper looked distressed, "That's right! It's said that the old lady of the Zhou family accidentally dropped the phoenix hairpin in anger. The old lady was so distressed that Mr. Zhou immediately had someone send it over. Can it be repaired today?"
"Let me take a look." Xu Nuoyan didn't dare to overestimate it. He checked it carefully and found that the crack was on the edge, not that the gemstone was cracked, so he took the job.
About an hour later, Xu Nuoyan had just finished repairing Feng Chai when the shopkeeper came in to ask.
She hurriedly put the things into the brocade box, "Be careful, it's best to wait two days before using them."
The shopkeeper carefully checked it and found that the cracks on the hairpin were really gone. He immediately smiled and said, "Miss Xu's craftsmanship is really incredible!"
He took out the things and offered them with both hands, "Master Zhou, I have asked you to wait for a long time. Are you satisfied with the repair of this phoenix hairpin?"
Mr. Zhou did not have high expectations, but the result surprised him. He stared at Feng Chai carefully for a long time, and a glint flashed in his eyes, "Which master's craft is this?"
The shopkeeper chuckled and said, "It's Zhenniang from our Zhenbao Pavilion."
“Can I meet you?” Mr. Zhou’s attitude was very sincere.
“This” shopkeeper is in a bit of a dilemma.
Mr. Zhou immediately took out two taels of silver from his arms.
The shopkeeper had to shout out the promise.
Xu Nuoyan thought there was something wrong with Feng Chai, but he didn't expect Mr. Zhou to read a bunch of praising poems when he saw the girl dressed up. At the end, he stared at her lovingly, "Has the girl ever been married?"
Xu Nuoyan's expression changed and he felt a little embarrassed.
The shopkeeper then knew Mr. Zhou’s purpose and hurriedly said: “Mr. Zhou, Miss Xu is not from the city, she is just here for a short time.”
Mr. Zhou became even happier when he heard this, and said loudly: "That's just right! The girl has no relatives here. Although I, Mr. Zhou, have no wealth, I still have some strength to protect the girl from the wind and rain." This "The shopkeeper was so worried that he was sweating profusely. He couldn't afford to offend the Zhou family. He promised that he didn't want to offend the Zhou family, but for a moment he had no idea.
Xu Nuoyan saw Mr. Zhou looking like he was determined to win, and the shopkeeper had no choice, so his heart suddenly sank.
At this moment, Yang Erdan came in carrying something, "Miss Xu!"
Xu Nuoyan seemed to have seen his savior and ran over quickly, "Second Young Master."
Mr. Zhou squinted his eyes and looked at Yang Erdan with hostility. When he saw that he was wearing ordinary clothes, he immediately became more contemptuous, "Master? Which young master is dressed like this? Miss Xu can't be deceived!"
Yang Erdan frowned, subconsciously not liking Mr. Zhou, "What does my family's situation have to do with you? It's not your turn to point fingers."
The shopkeeper was so frightened when he saw Mr. Zhou's face darkening that he hurriedly asked, "Sir, do you want to buy something?"
Yang Erdan’s eyes fell on the shopkeeper, he nodded slightly, and then asked Xu Nuoyan: “Miss Xu, what jewelry do you like?”
Xu Nuoyan had a question mark on his face.
Yang Erdan cupped his hands towards her and said bluntly, "Brother Ling proposed marriage to me that day. I wrote home and asked my mother-in-law. She agreed, but she had something to do at home and couldn't leave, so she sent me some money. Let me invite the official media to come to propose marriage, and the girl can choose whatever she likes."
Xu Nuoyan was stunned for a moment, weighed the current situation, decisively made a shy look, and nodded slightly.
Mr. Zhou was furious, "Okay! Very good! I want to see who dares to steal a woman from me!"
Xu Nuoyan's face turned a little pale, and he didn't know if Yang Erdan could withstand it.
The shopkeeper was also very worried.
Yang Erdan just narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
Mr. Zhou felt extremely humiliated by asking about his family background just now, but he still calmly reported to his family, "Zhou Hao of the Zhou family in Quzhou Prefecture!"
The shopkeeper added from the side: "The Zhou family is a famous big family in Quzhou, and their business is huge."
Yang Erdan suddenly asked, "How does the Zhou family compare with the Zhong family?"
"The Zhong family? Are you talking about the dean's family of Quzhou Academy?" The shopkeeper couldn't help but take a breath of air and looked at Yang Erdan with a little more respect.
Zhou Hao looked stunned, "Impossible! The Zhong family is a scholarly family. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible to have anything to do with the Zhong family!"
Having said that, Zhou Hao retreated in his heart. This person is really related to the Zhong family. He has hit the iron wall today. No matter how powerful a businessman is, he can't fight with the officials!
Yang Erdan shook his head, "I didn't say I was from the Zhong family. My family is just an ordinary farmer's family."
Before Zhou Hao could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Yang Erdan continue to say: "It's just that my mother was granted the imperial title and became Mrs. Muyi. Miss Xu just gave me some face and called me Young Master. In fact, she really Not much of a young master."
The shopkeeper was completely frightened. Who is Mrs. Muyi? That was a heroine that everyone knew about in Quzhou Prefecture. The taro she discovered saved many poor people! There were many places where she was given a golden body to worship. She was a strange woman that even the prefect wanted to treat with courtesy!
If Yang Erdan is really the son of Mrs. Muyi, wouldn’t Zhou Hao offend Mrs. Muyi? This is worse than offending the Zhong family. After all, businessmen value reputation when doing business. If the reputation is bad, all business will be ruined, and the Zhou family will not be far away from collapse.
Zhou Hao was also shocked by Yang Erdan's identity and turned pale. He subconsciously looked at the shopkeeper, but saw that the shopkeeper lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
At this moment, Yang Santie and several students from Quzhou Academy ran in and said, "Second brother, it's really you! I thought I saw it wrong!"
