Chapter 377: Chapter 372, Beautiful Days (2)

Qiao Jinniang sighed when she heard this. A year ago, her parents had been lingering on the sick bed. In the past few days, her father had been vomiting blood continuously. Even the Doctor said that her parents would not be able to last through the new year.

Her parents had no children, and she was the only daughter. Her daughter could not inherit the family business, and the Qiao family was eyeing her like a tiger watching its prey. In the past year, who knew how many times they had come to cause trouble.

A few days ago, she had heard from the doctor that her parents were seriously ill, and she had even proposed to let Qiao Wei be her parents’son, her brother-in-law.

For this reason, her parents had proposed to find a son-in-law for her. Most of the men recommended by the matchmaker were either incompetent, ugly, or physically ill.

Now that her days were better, no good man would be willing to marry into a family with many sons in the countryside, as long as they did not starve to death?

The background of the man inside was unknown and no one knew what his character was. However, the only thing that stood out was his good looks. If such a beautiful man was placed in the Hundred Savory restaurant, perhaps the business of the restaurant would be much better.

..

Three days after Lu Chen woke up, he could get out of bed and walk. When he went out, he looked at the dazzling sun and the scene of a flood washing over the village flashed through his mind.

He had a terrible headache and heard the soft laughter coming from the courtyard.

He walked over and saw Lady Qiao picking the lotus seed pod in the small pond in the courtyard. She was standing on a stone and trying to reach the lotus seed pod in the pond.

After removing the lotus seed pod, she smiled and said to the maid, “I’ve been waiting for this lotus seed pod for a long time. I can finally take it off.”

Unexpectedly, she lost her balance and almost fell into the pond. Lu Chen hurried over and pulled Qiao Jin back to the shore.

Qiao Jin smiled at Lu Chen and said, “Thank you. Can you get out of bed now? The Doctor said that you’d better stay in bed and rest for a while. Here, have a taste of the lotus seed I planted myself.”

Qiao Jin peeled off the lotus seed pod and took out the emerald green lotus seeds. Lu Chen took the lotus seeds and was about to stuff them into his mouth.

Qiao Jinniang quickly reached out and snatched the lotus seed back from Lu Chen’s hand. “I forgot that you lost your memory. This lotus seed needs to be peeled off.”

Lu Chen saw Qiao Jinniang peel off the skin of the lotus seed with a Dan Kou coated with flower juice, revealing the white flesh of the lotus seed inside.

Qiao Jinniang passed the White and tender flesh of the lotus seed to Lu Chen. “Here, you can eat it now.”

Lu Chen lowered his head and took a bite of the lotus seed meat in Qiao Jinniang’s hand. He only felt that the lotus seed meat had a refreshing sweetness to it. Although he had lost his memory, the lotus seeds he remembered were bitter. He had never thought that the lotus seed would be so sweet.

Qiao Jinniang hurriedly used her silk handkerchief to wipe the palm that Lu Chen had touched. She peeled another lotus seed for herself to eat. After eating a few, she turned around and saw the eager eyes of the youth.

Qiao Jinniang quickly hid the lotus seed.

Lu Chen:”…”

Mother Qiao coughed and came over. She said to Qiao jinniang, “Jinniang.”

“Mother!”After seeing mother Qiao, Qiao Jinniang quickly went over and smelled the medicinal smell on her body. She hurriedly said, “Why are you out of bed? Didn’t the doctor say that you should rest well?”

Mother Qiao looked at Lu Chen, and her eyes lit up slightly. This young Langjun’s appearance was much better than that of Marquis an yuan, whom she had served when she was young. It was just that she didn’t know what his character was like.

“Mother is much better now, so I came out of bed to take a walk.”

Qiao Jinniang supported mother Qiao and said, “It just so happens that the weather is clearing up. Shall I help you walk around the courtyard?”

Mother Qiao smiled lightly and patted Qiao Jinniang’s hand. “Good girl.”

Mother Qiao’s body had always been in bad shape. After giving birth to her daughter, she had traveled all the way to Jiangnan. When she had just opened the restaurant, she had to do everything.

Father Qiao and her were busy from dawn to dusk. They had to take care of the restaurant’s business and also take care of their daughter.

After two years, the business of the Hundred Savory restaurant had improved. The restaurant had also become bigger, and there were apprentices and waiters. However, mother Qiao had to worry about her life. She had to work hard from dawn to dusk.

Qiao Jinniang helped mother Qiao admire the lotus flowers on the veranda. She could not help but feel a little uncomfortable. The saddest thing in the world was that one’s son wanted to take care of his family but could not stay with them.

Mother Qiao took a seat under the veranda at the side and said to Qiao jinniang, “Your father said that the young Langjun is good-looking and has no one to rely on and nowhere to go. He is the perfect candidate to be your son-in-law. What do you think?”

Qiao jinniang said shyly, “I think it’s quite good.”

Father and mother did not have much time left. It was not easy for them to find a good-looking man with healthy limbs. Although he had forgotten about the past, he did not become a fool. It was extremely suitable for him to be her son-in-law.

Mother Qiao smiled gently. “That’s good. Mother will give her last breath to hold a wedding for you. I Won’t let you down.”

Qiao Jinniang snuggled into mother Qiao’s arms. “Mother, you don’t have to worry about it. I’ll handle it myself.”

The next day, Qiao Jinniang, glutinous rice, and Lu Chen went to the wedding shop in Lin ‘an city. It was full of shops for the wedding.

Qiao Jinniang first went to look for a matchmaker. She was inexperienced, so it was good to have a matchmaker to advise her.

The matchmaker saw Lu Chen’s appearance. “Good boy, Little Jinniang, where did you find this immortal? I’ve seen many men in my life, and even those young men among the officials of Chu didn’t have such looks!”

Qiao jinniang said, “This is my son-in-law.”

“Son-in-law? If you have a son-in-law, why did you ask me to find you a son-in-law earlier?”

“Aunt Wang, didn’t I lose him earlier?”Qiao Jinniang lied with her eyes wide open.

Walking into the tailor’s shop, the old tailor’s eyes also widened when he saw Lu Chen.

He said to Qiao jinniang, “Isn’t this the youngest daughter of the Qiao Family?”? Time really flies. You were already so small when you first came to Lin ‘an. Your parents put you in a restaurant. At that time, I said that this girl was beautiful when she grew up, and in the blink of an eye, she was going to get married.”

Qiao jinniang smiled and joked, “Uncle Tailor, since you watched me grow up, you have to give me the best material. Don’t Bury My Looks!”

The tailor said, “Haha, of course, of course. Your future husband is so beautiful. This material is Yun Jin, specially for the nobles in Chang ‘an. I asked someone to get one from Chang ‘an, but Lin ‘an is far from Chang ‘an. You can wear this material without any problems.”

Qiao Jinniang saw the dragon and Phoenix patterns on Yun Jin and was extremely beautiful. “How much silver is this material?”

The tailor said, “You know that the cloud brocade is very expensive. I asked someone to collect a lot of silver. I originally wanted to sell it to the daughters of the officials, but now I’m selling it to you at cost. Two hundred silver, and I won’t charge the tailor fees.”

Qiao Jinniang smiled faintly and said, “Then I’ll reserve the best seat for Uncle Tailor at the wedding banquet and give you more of the signature dishes of the Hundred Savory restaurant.”

Lu Chen followed Qiao Jinniang along the way. He saw that Qiao Jinniang was extremely generous in spending money and had a good relationship with the shopkeepers in the various shops. It was also very refreshing to set things for the wedding.

In the wedding cake shop, the eldest daughter of the Qiao Clan Head came to buy things for the wedding. She looked out and saw Qiao Jinniang Pass by the door. She walked to a shop that sold jewelry and stopped.

A beautiful man followed by Qiao Jinniang. The eldest daughter of the Qiao clan head repeatedly went over and held her mother’s hand. “Mother, do you think that’s Qiao Jinniang?”
