Chapter 531 (2/2)
The boatman got up and went to the back of the house of the small restaurant to go to the toilet.
The landlady twisted her fat waist and came over and asked, ”handsome boy, what did you say to Lao Li Tou just now? I don't think he's happy. I said, ”what's the relationship between you two?”
”Madame, I met the boatman by chance.”
”Since we met by chance, it doesn't matter, but why do you invite Lao Li to dinner? Besides, you should be happy when you two drink together. How can I see that you both have a straight face and a sullen look, especially old Li Tou seems to be getting angry. I warn you: Lao Li Tou is very hot tempered. Don't offend him. ”
”Landlady, thank you for reminding me. I'm just chatting with my uncle.”
”Handsome boy, do you want to fall in love with Lao Li Tou's daughter?”
”Landlady, I have already said that I have been married and my son has run all over the place.”
”Ha ha... I'm a well-informed person. Don't try to fool me. I think: do you have a crush on Lao Li Tou's daughter? Maybe Lao Li Tou doesn't agree with his daughter to fall in love with you, so you come to negotiate with Lao Li Tou, but the negotiation is not smooth. Is my guess right?”
Chang Wen said with a sigh: ”Madame, your imagination really makes me admire. Unfortunately, you guessed wrong. It's a big mistake.”
”Ha ha... I guess you're right. You know it in your heart. But if you want to fall in love with Lao Li Tou's daughter, you have to have great skills. Otherwise, you don't deserve Lao Li Tou's daughter.”
Chang Wen's curiosity was aroused by his wife's words.
”Landlady, is Lao Li Tou's daughter the most beautiful woman?”
”Ha ha... It's not just beautiful women. They are very capable. They are very big. They have no daughter who doesn't know Lao Li Tou's daughter in a radius of 30 Li.”
Chang Wen was more interested and wanted to know what happened. At this time, old Li Tou went to the toilet and came back.
The landlady rushed into the kitchen.
Old Li Tou sat down and asked with a gloomy face, ”what did the landlady tell you just now?”
Chang Wen told the truth: ”the landlady asked me if I wanted to fall in love with your daughter, so I came to you for negotiation. I said no, I've been married.”
Old Li Tou rolled his eyes at Chang Wen, and his eyes were full of disdain.
Perhaps, Lao Li looks down on such a small white face as Chang Wen.
Chang Wen has understood clearly why the boatman told that lie. Now, he doesn't need to stay in this awkward environment any more. So he stood up decisively and said goodbye: ”uncle, if I have to catch the coach home, I won't accompany you.”
With that, Chang Wen called out to the landlady: ”check out.”
The landlady twisted her waist and came over, puzzled and asked: ”handsome man, you haven't finished eating. Why are you paying in a hurry?”
”Madame, I have to catch the coach. If I miss it, I won't be able to go back today.”
”Handsome man, if you can't go back, what are you afraid of? There's a hotel in the town. It's very clean. You can live comfortably.”
”Madame, please check out. I have something else to do when I go back.”
The landlady said, ”246 yuan, take out the change, you can give 240 yuan.”
Chang Wen took out 250 yuan, handed it to the landlady and said, ”don't change.”
He said to the boatman, ”uncle, I'm really sorry that I can't drink with you.”
Chang Wen turned to the landlady and said, ”please accompany uncle.”
