this day.
Boss Wang brought his sister Wang Yuyan to Zhou's house in Bailuyuan.
I also had someone send me a greeting card in advance.
Zhou Qiang did not refuse, he still wanted to see Boss Wang.
The gate of Zhouzhai.
Zhou Qiang came out in person.
Boss Wang smiled handsomely first, looking like a humble gentleman, and said with cupped hands: "I have admired Boss Zhou for a long time, and now that I can see him, he is indeed worthy of his reputation!"
"Brother Wang, you're welcome. The Wang family has a well-established family background. Father and son are three nobles, which makes others envious. I have also admired the name for a long time!" Zhou Qiang also smiled and showed great enthusiasm.
There is a carriage behind Boss Wang.
On the carriage, Wang Yuyan was inside.
Seemingly hearing the noise outside, Wang Yuyan opened the curtain and did not get off the carriage, but just said hello to Zhou Qiang.
Zhou Qiang also said hello and said nothing more.
Although it was just a casual glance.
But Zhou Qiang still saw clearly what Wang Yuyan looked like.
She looks similar to Tian Xiao'e. She is a beautiful woman, each with her own beauty.
The sound is crisp and pleasant.
She has a good figure and temperament, and she is indeed a girl. There is no such thing as "dating in the back garden".
Boss Wang entered Zhou's house.
Wang Yuyan did not get off the carriage. As a woman who has not yet left the government, it is not convenient for her to show her face.
Front yard, main room.
Sit down separately for host and guest.
"My brother and sister are passing by here and are taking the liberty of visiting. Please forgive me." Boss Wang made an excuse.
"Brother Wang, you're welcome." Zhou Qiang smiled, "Come here, serve tea, serve good tea!"
“Boss Zhou’s business is not only spread across the province, but also sold to the capital and the capital.
Boss Zhou’s Zhoujia old wine, Zhouji tofu, Zhoujia potato strips, and Zhoujia pickles.” Boss Wang began to praise Zhou Qiang.
"It is said that the Wang family's grain shops are spread all over the province. In Zishui County alone, there are more than ten.
The food eaten in the entire Zishui County is provided by the Wang family.
Brother Wang is the director of the Food Administration of Zishui County." Zhou Qiang also commercially praised Boss Wang. (PS: I don't know if he is the Food Administration.)
We complimented each other a lot and drank several cups of tea.
The relationship between the two seems to be much closer.
"Boss Zhou, there may have been a misunderstanding between us regarding my sister's marriage. I will apologize to Boss Zhou first." Boss Wang still looked like a humble gentleman, as gentle as jade and as open-minded as ever.
"Easy to say, easy to say." Zhou Qiang remained calm and dealt with it casually. But this look is a bit pretentious and not very polite.
When Boss Wang saw this, he felt a little more angry in his heart, but with a bigger smile on his face, "Boss Zhou, you asked Matchmaker Zhang to do the matchmaking before, and you also drew a portrait of my family Yu Yan.
Today, you met my sister. What do you think? "
Boss Wang still plans to let Wang Yuyan marry Zhou Qiang.
Even if Zhou Qiang is already married, it doesn't matter.
Isn’t it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Didn’t Boss Wang already have six wives and concubines? The county magistrate of Zishui County also married eight wives and concubines.
As long as Wang Yuyan is the legal wife, that's fine.
In addition, Boss Wang is confident that Wang Yuyan will gain a foothold in the Zhou family and slowly encroach on the Zhou family's industry.
In the end, everything belonging to the Zhou family will still be swallowed up by the Wang family.
Boss Wang hasn't given up on peeking into Zhou Qiang's secret recipe and everything about Zhou Qiang.
In the eyes of Boss Wang, Zhou Qiang is a nouveau riche who can be easily dealt with.
"My sister is naturally beautiful, with a voice like an oriole, and a face as beautiful as a flower. She is worthy of being a lady." Zhou Qiang praised her truthfully.
"Then how about we, the Wang family, get married to the Zhou family?" Boss Wang said directly. He came today just to talk about the marriage.
"This" Zhou Qiang showed some hesitation.
"Huh? Boss Zhou, what are your concerns?"
"I wonder if the Wang family has any other requests?"
"There are no requirements." Boss Wang shook his head and then explained: "Boss Zhou, don't worry, it was my second brother who was confused and peeked into the Zhou family's potato stick business.
Now my father has severely reprimanded him and driven him to the provincial capital.
There are no further requirements at this time.
The betrothal gift can be paid as usual.
As for the dowry, my Wang family can dowry two grain stores. "
When Boss Wang said this, he lowered his attitude.
"In this case, I am narrow-minded and have misunderstood the Wang family." Zhou Qiang acted as if he had misunderstood the Wang family and cooperated with the acting.
"It's my Wang family's fault." Boss Wang also blamed himself, "Boss Zhou, you are young and promising, and you have a magnificent talent."
Boss Wang praised Zhou Qiang, and in a few words, he set a specific wedding date with Zhou Qiang.
At this time, the atmosphere between the two became more and more harmonious.
Like brothers.
"Brother Yu, there is one more thing that is hard to tell." Boss Wang pretended to be hesitant.
"Brother Wang, please tell me, Zhou and Wang have become in-laws, what can't you say?" Zhou Qiang acted as if we were relatives.
"This... is actually a misunderstanding.
Some time ago, Brother Zhou passed by when you were getting married.
There were several royal guards among them, and they had other matters to negotiate with the bandits.
There was no time to explain, so they got into a fight.
Later, Brother Zhou sent them to the Governor's Mansion in the provincial capital.
Butler Zhang was also implicated and taken to the Governor's Mansion. "Boss Wang said that his previous action of intercepting Zhou Qiang was a misunderstanding.
This ability to confuse right and wrong is so familiar.
"That's it!" Zhou Qiang seemed a little surprised, "The flood really washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the whole family no longer knew each other."
Boss Wang cupped his hands and said: "Brother Zhou, for the sake of my little sister, please ask the Governor's Mansion not to pursue the Wang family.
My Wang family has been loyal and loyal for generations. I have never made friends with gangsters or done anything wrong.
Don't let my Wang family suffer injustice because of a misunderstanding. "
Boss Wang has a eloquent tongue, pretends to be pitiful and wronged, and speaks with emotion and emotion, which makes people feel sympathetic.
Boss Wang's acting skills are very high.
One look at it and you can tell that he has been exercising a lot.
"Easy to say, easy to say. Since it is a misunderstanding, I will send someone to the Governor's Mansion to explain the situation and let Butler Zhang go." Zhou Qiang agreed happily.
A smile immediately appeared on Boss Wang's face. He was still not very good at nourishing qi, so he was overjoyed.
Without waiting for Boss Wang to thank him, Zhou Qiang continued: "However, the bandits who were captured alive cannot be released.
They have committed many evil deeds, including blocking roads, robbing people, killing people and setting fires. They are guilty of all kinds of crimes and need to be severely punished. "
"Of course!" Boss Wang was filled with indignation. But my heart was bleeding, and I thought to myself: "Those bandits who are captured alive will have to pay a lot of money. However, it is not impossible to operate.
The bandits bought their food from the Wang family, so using the food to negotiate with the bandits should reduce their losses.
It can still be like this.”
In an instant, Boss Wang thought of many ways to deal with the bandits in Bald Ridge.
As if he thought of something he was proud of, there was a smile on Boss Wang's lips again.
The gate of Zhouzhai.
Boss Wang didn't stay long, after all, Wang Yuyan was still waiting outside.
"Brother Zhou, stay." Boss Wang was about to leave, looking happy. The two things he came here to do, one was to marry his sister, and the other was to release those arrested in the provincial capital, were both accomplished. He is very happy.
"Brother Wang, my marriage to Yuyan has been decided. I'll send someone to my door in a few days." Zhou Qiang looked a little anxious.
"Okay, I'll wait for the good news." Boss Wang walked away somewhat proudly. "Zhuge" of the Wang family must succeed immediately. The Zhou family also has something in their pocket, so there is nothing to worry about.
Send Boss Wang away.
Zhou Qiang and Tian Xiaoe had dinner together.
Tian Xiao'e was carefully trying to please Zhou Qiang, but seemed a little uneasy.
"Xiao'e, the reason why I married Wang Yuyan from the Wang family this time is not because of anything else, but because the competition between my Zhou family and the Wang family is not over yet." Zhou Qiang explained.
"What?" Tian Xiao'e was a little confused.
"Xiao'e, the bandit on the road earlier.
They were hired by the Wang family to kill me.
My Zhou family and the Wang family have no enmity, but the Wang family has committed murder.
How can I let go of the Wang family?
Today I will marry Wang Yuyan from the Wang family, and tomorrow I will have the entire Wang family executed! "Zhou Qiang looked fierce.
"Brother Qiang, don't be angry." Tian Xiao'e hugged Zhou Qiang's arm and comforted him. At the same time, I felt relieved.
Tian Xiao'e was afraid of falling out of favor with Zhou Qiang.
It didn't take long.
The two went to the bedroom.
No matter day or night.
Just do what you want to do.
Not a few days.
Matchmaker Zhang is here again.
This time Zhou Qiang did not drive away Matchmaker Zhang.
"Congratulations, Boss Zhou, it's been a long journey, but the destined people finally got married," Matchmaker Zhang said in a pleasant way.
"Aunt Zhang, please worry about it. This is twenty dollars. I have to worry about the follow-up matters." Zhou Qiang did not deduct Matchmaker Zhang's wedding money.
"Thank you Boss Zhou for the reward!" Matchmaker Zhang was extremely happy. She thought that if the marriage did not go smoothly, Zhou Qiang would not give another twenty yuan even if he gave her wedding money. I didn't expect Zhou Qiang to be so grand in his work. Well, at least they are more generous than the Wang family.
"Go find Lao Fan, choose a good day, and prepare the three books and six etiquette."
"okay!"
A few days later.
The news that Zhou Qiang was marrying another wife spread in Bailu Village.
"Have you heard? Boss Zhou is getting a wife again!"
"What? I just married a girl from the Tian family, why are you marrying her again?"
"Who knows, but this time I am marrying Wang Ju's daughter."
"What? Wang Juren? Is it the Wang Juren who sells grain?"
"That's right, Boss Zhou got lucky this time and was able to marry the daughter of the Wang family."
"I wonder how much the Wang family's dowry is?"
"I heard that I am marrying two food stores."
"What? Do you still have a dowry shop?"
"How much gift did the boss give that week?"
"I don't know, I haven't heard of it."
"Boss Zhou has made a profit this time."
"That's not two shops! Even if there is only one shop, you will have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life."
"Boss Zhou is so lucky!" The crowd didn't know anything, they just envied Zhou Qiang.
Since ancient times, there have always been many people eating melons.
After the news spread.
Lu Zilin's family.
Lu Zilin said with envy, "Look at Zhou Qiang, he wants to marry a wife again.
This is a good thing.
If you have more daughters-in-law, you can have more children and spread your branches and leaves. "
Lu Zilin's words had only one meaning: he also wanted to have more wives.
However, Lu Taiheng refused.
Although in ancient times it was possible to have three wives and four concubines, how could ordinary people have the ability to have three wives and four concubines?
Most people are a wife.
Bai Jiaxuan's family.
"Jiaxuan, why does Xiaoqiang want to marry another wife? I think that Tian Xiao'e is pretty good too." Xiancao had some opinions on Zhou Qiang's new wife.
"I heard the third brother talk about this.
It is said that before marrying Tian Xiao'e, there was a matchmaker who helped match Zhou Qiang with the Wang family.
Later, because the Wang family's demands were too high, Zhou Qiang did not agree, so he did not marry the Wang family's daughter.
A few days ago, Wang, the boss of the Wang family, went to Zhou Qiang's place.
Then the marriage was decided again.
The two families are getting married again. "
Lu San worked for Zhou Qiang and knew more about it. When he returned to Bai's house, he told Bai Jiaxuan.
"Even so, you have to take your time, at least wait until the New Year before marrying the daughter of the Wang family.
It would be bad for Tian Xiaoe to marry her now. "Xiancao felt a little sorry for Tian Xiao'e.
"We have nothing to do with this matter." Bai Jiaxuan had a sullen face, not knowing what to think about.
Maybe Bai Jiaxuan also wanted to marry more wives, but he didn't say it out loud.
Zhou Zhai.
As the news spread, Tian Xiao'e inevitably wiped her tears secretly.
After Zhou Qiang found out, he waved his hand and said, "Xiao'e, my family's shop in Zishui County will give you three!
From now on, the income from these three shops will be your private money. "
Three shops were obtained.
The monthly income is at least 100 yuan.
Tian Xiao'e didn't bother to wipe her tears anymore.
She never thought that one day she would have so much money.
Tian Xiao'e also understood that Zhou Qiang didn't mean to embarrass her.
"Brother Qiang, don't worry, I will keep an eye on the Wang family sister and prevent her from taking advantage of her." Tian Xiao'e suddenly felt responsible and helped Zhou Qiang keep an eye on the 'harem'.
Another grand wedding.
The scale of the wedding banquet was even larger than last time.
This time with the Wang family, more people came.
Boss Wang also came to Bailu Village and personally saw off Wang Yuyan in marriage.
Boss Wang was followed by the housekeeper Lao Zhang.
Lao Zhang has been released.
The captured bandits have been shot.
The bandits in Bald Ridge stopped causing trouble after receiving the food from the Wang family.
The Wang family's crisis has been resolved.
There are many people from the Wang family coming this time, some from the direct line and some from the collateral line.
Before they came, they had agreed on the idea of defrauding Zhou Qiang's secret recipe and taking away Zhou Qiang's family fortune.
Including Wang Yuyan, this is the idea.
Zhou Qiang is already the flesh and blood of the Wang family.
With their purpose in mind, the Wang family was very enthusiastic and courteous to Zhou Qiang.
This kind of performance is extremely enviable in the eyes of the people who eat melons. They all think that Zhou Qiang is lucky.
“Thank you all for coming to my wedding again.
Everyone, eat well and drink well." Zhou Qiang said some polite words.
"The banquet is open!"
The banquet begins.
The people had a good meal again.
"Brother-in-law, come and let me toast you!" Mr. Wang toasted first.
Then, "Brother-in-law, I want to toast you too!" The rest of the Wang family began to toast non-stop.
"Do it!" Zhou Qiang refused to accept anyone who came.
Bai Jiaxuan and Lu Zilin are in charge.
Seeing that the Wang family kept toasting, they hurriedly came over, "Come on, come on, we didn't entertain you well, it's our turn to toast!"
Bai Jiaxuan and Lu Zilin took the people from Bailu Village and started to toast. It didn't take long before the Wang family got drunk.
The matter of defrauding Zhou Qiang's secret recipe is not a matter of urgency, but should be done slowly.
The Wang family is patient, they can wait a few more months.
It was late at night and the guests had dispersed.
Zhou Qiang went to Wang Yuyan's room.
Another wedding night.
"Yuyan, you will be my Zhou family's wife from now on. Don't have any thoughts that you shouldn't have." Zhou Qiang warned and blocked Wang Yuyan's mouth.
Dragon and phoenix danced all night.
How many flowers have fallen?
In another room, Tian Xiao'e still couldn't help crying. She was newly married not long ago.
A few days later.
"Yuyan, let your cousins take care of the shop that you are marrying." Zhou Qiang was talking about the Wang family's collateral brothers.
"What? No need, right? Brother Qiang, why don't you find someone to take care of it?" Wang Yuyan didn't want to use the Wang family.
After getting married, Wang Yuyan's thoughts changed, and she seemed to be no longer on the same page as the Wang family.
"That's a grain store. I've never run it before and don't have much experience. I'd better let them run it first." The reason why Zhou Qiang said this was because there was competition between the direct line and the collateral line of the Wang family.
Zhou Qiang planned to throw a bone to provoke a fight within the Wang family.
Zhou Zhai.
backyard.
Divided into several houses.
Tian Xiao'e lives in House No. 1.
Wang Yuyan lives in House No. 2.
There are also houses No. 3 and 4, which are empty.
Zhou Qiang is in the north room.
Had dinner.
An old woman asked Zhou Qiang: "Master, which house will light the lights today?"
"Click both No. 1 and No. 2." Zhou Qiang casually ordered.
"Okay." The old lady went down and got ready.
After a while.
The old woman yelled in the backyard: "Light up the lights in House No. 1, House No. 2!"
Immediately, someone lit red lanterns for the two houses.
At the same time, two women with hammer feet entered rooms No. 1 and 2 and began to hammer the feet of Tian Xiao'e and Wang Yuyan.
After finishing the beating, Tian Xiao'e and Wang Yuyan dressed up and went to the north room.
