The bad man who is a womanizer, go on a blind date in a hurry
Chapter 72 The Master Invites You for Tea
"Er Gouzi! Look here! Look here!"
This familiar voice sounded again, and Lu Yao was filled with surprise!
She quickly looked up and looked in the direction of the voice.
On the second floor of a roadside teahouse in front, two red-painted carved windows were open. Xie Jingran, dressed in an apricot-yellow gauze dress, was gently waving a round fan, looking at her through the window with tender eyes.
Lu Yao just felt like she was seeing a painting.
Mr. Xie in the painting stands there quietly, emitting a soft light that people will never forget after seeing it.
The two people's eyes met from a distance.
In an instant, it seemed as if burning sparks were ignited, and Lu Yao and Xie Jingran quickly dodged.
Lu Yao quickly turned her gaze towards the painting, where another character was jumping around non-stop. Song Yan on the side waved a handkerchief and called out, "Er Gouzi, here! Come up quickly!"
This is an invitation for her to come over for a chat.
"Okay! I'll be right there!" Lu Yao took cheerful steps and trotted towards the teahouse.
I entered the teahouse, went up to the second floor, and went into the private room. Xie Jingran, Song Yan, and Zhan Ying were all there.
"What a coincidence, I meet you again." Lu Yao suppressed the joy in her heart and greeted them politely.
"Yes." Waves of joy surged into Xie Jingran's heart. He tried his best to maintain the elegance and calmness of a nobleman, but his eyes couldn't help but sparkle with stars. "What a coincidence."
“We had already finished our pie, and after walking around the city, the young master insisted on having tea here.
After drinking for so long, I told him several times to go, but he always said "wait a moment".
I waited and waited, and finally you came. What a coincidence!"
Song Yan made an intriguing expression while speaking, and Xie Jingran quickly explained: "If we go back early, there will be nothing to do, so we might as well drink some tea here and digest the food."
Then, he quickly called Lu Yao: "Miss Lu, let's have some tea together!"
"Okay." Lu Yao agreed happily.
In addition to being very happy to be with Mr. Xie, there was another real reason: Lu Yao was really thirsty and tired.
From the time she walked to Caogouling Village for the blind date in the morning to the time she walked back now, she hadn't drunk a sip of water or eaten a bite of food, and she even had a fight in the middle.
One bar of battery left.
"Songyan, Zhanying, come along. Miss Lu is not a stranger, let's sit together." Xie Jingran invited everyone to come and sit down.
It doesn't seem like a good idea to just drink tea with Miss Lu.
Bring Song Yan and Zhan Ying along, especially Zhan Ying, then no one will be able to say anything.
Xie Jingran arranged everything quietly.
This is a long, high tea table with chairs around it.
Lu Yao was very relieved that in this world, people did not sit on their knees. Everyone sat on stools and chairs, so their legs did not have to go numb.
Xie Jingran and Song Yan sat together, while Lu Yao and Zhan Ying sat opposite them.
In the middle of the table were tea sets and teapots, and on a small clay stove nearby was a small copper kettle for boiling water.
Song Yan quickly poured a cup of tea for Lu Yao, and Lu Yao drank it while blowing on it.
This tea is quite similar to the green tea she had in her previous life. It has a mellow taste, a little bitter but long-lasting sweetness, and a natural fragrance.
It’s a long-lost feeling!
This was the first time she drank tea since coming into this world.
When I was at the Lu family, tea was so expensive that it was impossible for me to give it to my family.
It is said that Uncle Lu has a small bag of tea leaves passed down from his ancestors, which he only keeps for distinguished guests to drink.
In Yuan's house, because they were servants, they could not drink tea. Lu Yao had seen Yuan Langjun drink tea, and Doudou served him.
Now, Mr. Xie is inviting me to tea!
After drinking a cup of wine, Lu Yao felt refreshed. She glanced to the side and saw a few small plates of dried fruits and snacks on the table.
In the private rooms of high-end teahouses, people don't just drink tea, they also serve complementary fruits, dim sum and snacks.
If you are willing to pay, you can also ask a few guys to play some musical instruments and sing.
Lu Yao remembered that she hadn't eaten yet and felt even hungrier. She swallowed silently.
Xie Jingran had been paying close attention to Lu Yao, and when he saw her look, he immediately understood.
"Miss Lu, please try the dim sum here. It is said that they are all made in the store's kitchen and are very special." As he said this, he pushed all the dim sum in front of Lu Yao, ordered a few more snacks, and invited Song Yan and Zhan Ying to taste them together.
"Thank you, sir. I'm really sorry for the expense." Lu Yao hurriedly thanked him, thinking that this sir was really considerate. Afraid that she would feel embarrassed, he even ordered some extra food for Song Yan and Guard Zhan to eat with her.
The four of them drank tea and ate snacks, just like a few old friends meeting up for afternoon tea.
After eating a few snacks, Song Yan asked with concern: "Er Gouzi, how was your blind date today?"
Xie Jingran picked up the teacup and pretended to take a sip, but in fact he had been thinking about this matter all the time.
Zhan Ying straightened his body and pricked up his ears in preparation.
Lu Yao swallowed a mouthful of dessert and said calmly, "Obviously, it didn't work."
"Failed?!" The three felt that it was both expected and unexpected.
Songyan was puzzled: "When I saw you just now, you were smiling and seemed to be in a good mood. I thought it worked this time!"
Zhan Ying was puzzled: "Aren't you anxious to get married? Why don't you look sad?"
Xie Jingran thought for a moment and asked, "Why this time?"
Lu Yao finished the snack in her hand, took a sip of tea, and said quietly, "I gave up on my own initiative this time."
So, he told the three of them in detail what happened at the Chen family today.
Especially the story of Er Gouzi, who is both civil and military, fighting against the Huang family, which shocked the three people:
"You started a fight in someone's house?"
Is there anyone like you who goes on blind dates?
Lu Yao: "You didn't see what happened at that time. If I didn't fight, even my brother-in-law and I would not have a good ending!"
Three: Okay, you're right.
Of course, after listening to Mr. Chen’s story, the three of them couldn’t help but sigh.
"In fact, what happened to Mr. Chen is similar to what happened in the capital in the past, and some were even worse." Xie Jingran said softly.
In a world like Fengchao, many families, especially high-ranking officials and prominent families, often betroth their children early in order to arrange marriages.
But things are unpredictable. When you are about to get married several years later, some people always die or become disabled due to accidents.
"At this time, some families, for the sake of reputation or to curry favor with the other family, often choose not to withdraw the marriage contract and continue to marry their children into the other family, just for the sake of the brother-in-law relationship.
Those men who married into the past became widows as soon as they got married, and their lives were wasted like this.”
Xie Jingran said this and sighed softly.
He has seen too many things like this in the capital.
As a man, he also sympathized with them. But there were too many shackles on men in this world, and they could not resist their fate.
Lu Yao opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
Wasn't it the same in her previous life in ancient times, except that the victims were women.
"Fortunately, that young Mr. Chen's family loved him, so they broke off the engagement and took him back!
Also, the Huang family is such a jerk! They are such a bad family. Even if the Huang family's daughter didn't die, young Chen, who is so honest, would suffer for his whole life if he married into the family!" Song Yan said angrily.
"Ms. Lu is still the best!" Zhan Ying finally couldn't help it and wanted to interrupt.
After hearing Lu Yao say that she defeated twenty people with just a slap, Zhan Ying felt itchy in his heart.
She really wanted Lu Yao to teach her!
She remembered that Miss Lu's move was called "Whirlwind Dabidou"!
"It's not that great, right? Anyway, that slap from me ruined my blind date this time." Lu Yao smiled helplessly.
Although she saved the Chen family, her tough appearance must have left a deep impression on them.
"The Chen family is grateful to me, but they may not be willing to marry a tough guy like Er Gouzi."
Not everyone will repay a life-saving favor with their own life.
Later, Lu Yao found out that a few days after the blind date, Sister Chen and several other legitimate daughters brought a generous gift to the Lu family and made a special trip to express their gratitude to Lu Yao.
But it was just a thank you, and the Chen family did not mention any marriage.
"But I don't feel sorry, because I don't like young Mr. Chen." Lu Yao took another sip of tea and looked at Xie Jingran across from her.
"He's not my type, whether in appearance or personality. I wasn't attracted to him the moment I saw him in the door.
Speaking of which, I am quite conflicted.
On the one hand, I was anxious to get married, so when I heard about blind date opportunities, I rushed to go. I wanted to find a man of the right age and get married.
But during this blind date, I discovered that, in fact, in my heart, I still have certain requirements for my husband. "
Lu Yao couldn't help but speak the truth.
"What do you want from your husband?" Xie Jingran really wanted to know.
Lu Yao took a deep breath, her thoughts seemed to drift far away:
“Besides that worldly requirement, there are some aspects that are particularly important to me.
You know, that's the feeling. The feeling that as soon as you meet him, you like him, think he's pretty good, and want to get along with him. You get along well with him."
This was how she looked for a partner in her previous life.
Her relatives, friends, and colleagues have introduced her to many potential partners, and she has met many types of men.
There are some ugly and ordinary men, as well as some who are really rich or talented.
However, she never met someone who really made her feel something and was willing to talk to him.
So I've been single forever.
Lu Yao was only concerned with speaking her truth and did not notice her own words. Such thoughts were somewhat shocking in a classical world like Feng Dynasty.
Although there are blind dates here, marriage is, after all, a matter of parents’ orders and matchmakers’ words.
Those who are rich and powerful are more concerned with marriage to maintain class stability and keep the wealth within the family.
If she told her elders about her love-based view of marriage, she would probably be severely criticized.
Fortunately, her audience were three young people like Xie Jingran.
They are also at an age when they are full of longing for love and marriage. After hearing this, the three of them started to fantasize about it.
Songyan and Zhanying both held up their cheeks, each thinking about their own things.
Xie Jingran pretended to drink tea again, but his hand holding the teacup was shaking slightly with excitement.
A close friend!
He actually thought so too.
