Chapter 459: Chapter 462: Destined to be a Joke_1
The fortune-teller also said that their young master was fated to be henpecked, and to top it off, he had a wife-prospering destiny.
Therefore, in street lingo, their young master was simply destined to be a joke.
He coughed. To think such things seemed rather unkind, but that was just the way it was.
Liang Hao slapped the table, "I’d sign up for that face alone!"
If he was going to put up with nonsense either way, why not find someone young and beautiful?
At least his eyes would be pleased, and his heart would be content.
After inquiring about Qiao Duo’er’s background, Liang Hao swaggered into her place when Tan Zhenghong wasn’t around.
"This is the Eldest Young Master of the Liang Family, wanting to discuss a big deal with you," Liang Shun said draggingly.
Qiao Duo’er responded indifferently, "Small business, hardly big deals. If there’s anything you want to buy, just say it outright."
Now that Yin Yinyue had temporarily given up on Tan’s Shop, why had they sent over another rich punk with street smarts?
Wait, Young Master Liang?
Was he actually Yin Yinyue’s husband, Liang Hao?
"When Young Master Liang shows up, it’s definitely a big business..."
Liang Shun spoke at length, but seeing no response from Qiao Duo’er, his face began to lose color.
He could not help but raise his voice, "You dead woman, can’t you hear me speaking? I’m telling you, this is the Eliest Young Master of the Liang Family, Master’s son-in-law, open your eyes wide!"
Liang Hao hurriedly kicked Liang Shun, had that kid been held by an idiot when he was little?
"Miss, he’s had too much to drink, don’t mind his nonsense. How about I buy twenty catties of braised meat from you every day, can Miss deliver it to our residence?" Liang Hao spoke politely and literately.
Qiao Duo’er smiled slightly, "Of course, but since the gentleman is ordering a large amount, a deposit must be made in advance."
Liang Hao was a bit stunned. He thought he would have to work hard with his words, but he didn’t expect the girl to be so clear-headed and agree just like that.
That’s good, too; it saved him the hassle. He certainly liked smart women!
Liang Hao signaled Liang Shun, who then took out ten tales.
"You must pick out the best to deliver. I’m giving you the money for ten days in advance, starting from today."
Liang Shun slapped the silver on the counter, his mannerism just short of having the words "I’m not short on cash" written across his face.
Qiao Duo’er accepted the silver, "No problem."
"Thank you, miss. I will take my leave," said Liang Hao, bowing before swiftly dragging Liang Shun away.
Tonight, his face had been completely lost, thanks to that idiot!
Once they’d walked a bit away, Liang Hao tugged at Liang Shun’s ear and said, "Be more courteous when you talk to Miss Tan in the future."
"Young Master, Mrs. Tan’s maiden name is Qiao; it’s her husband who has the surname Tan."
Liang Shun hurriedly explained, and had his ear not still been in Liang Hao’s grasp, he would have definitely laughed out loud.
Liang Hao’s face turned red, and his grip tightened.
"Who needs all this nonsense? Don’t I know what you know? If I catch you talking to her like that again, I won’t let you off!"
"I... I was just using my crude ignorance to contrast with Young Master’s refined and cultured manners," Liang Shun explained.
With that explanation from Liang Shun, Liang Hao instantly lost his anger, released Liang Shun’s ear, and quickly straightened his own appearance.
Seeing Qiao Duo’er made him feel instantly younger, with a sense of spring stirring in his heart.
In the braised meat store, the Hu’s Clan lady anxiously advised, "Duo’er, I think those two have ill intentions, you must not go there."
Qiao Duo’er nodded, "Don’t worry, I have plans."
She had agreed to deliver the braised meat, not to personally deliver it. What was there to be nervous about?
One can’t just turn away silver delivered to the doorstep, right?
