My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 4256 Suzhou Embroidery Handkerchief
“Uncle Lei, I remember when and where I saw you before.”

Upon hearing Kryiko's words, Liu Mingzhi and Lei Jun, the two brothers, immediately changed their expressions and turned their gazes to Kryiko's pretty face.

Looking at the look of surprise on Kriyko's pretty face, Liu Mingzhi raised his eyebrows slightly in astonishment.

Compared to Young Master Liu's slightly surprised raised eyebrow reaction, Lei Jun's eyes widened slightly with a broad smile.

"Oh? Yike, you really remember who your uncle is?"

Kriy heard Lei Jun's light-hearted question and nodded twice without hesitation.

"Yes, yes, I really remember now. I really remember who you are, Uncle Lei."

After answering Lei Jun's question in a sweet and gentle voice, Kriiko immediately gave him a slight curtsy, and then asked Lei Jun the question she wanted to ask him in a sweet and gentle voice.

"Uncle Lei, if I may ask, is your honorable name Lei Jun?"

When Lei Jun saw Kriyko and asked her name, he immediately realized that Kriyko had truly remembered who she was.

After all, in their conversation just now, they addressed each other as Brother Liu and Brother Lei, without ever mentioning his own name.

As for the little cutie standing aside watching the show, she just watched silently the whole time and never said a word to me.

Of course, even if the little cutie starts talking, she can only address herself as Uncle Lei, instead of directly calling herself by her name.

In this way, if Kriek asks for her name, it can only be one that she herself has remembered.

Lei Jun was certain that Kriyko had truly remembered who she was, so he immediately nodded gently to Kriyko with a cheerful smile.

"Hahaha, Yi Ke, that's right, your uncle is Lei Jun."

Upon hearing Lei Jun's affirmative reply, Krij quickly gave another slight bow to Lei Jun, who was looking at him with a smile.

"Uncle Lei, my daughter greets you."

My daughter was blind earlier and didn't recognize you at first glance, Uncle Lei. I hope you will forgive her.

Lei Jun looked at Kriyko, who was bowing to him, and immediately raised his hands to gently support her.

"Oh dear, no need for formalities, no need for formalities."

"Thank you, Uncle Lei."

After thanking her in a soft voice, Kriyko gracefully straightened her slender waist.

Lei Jun saw that Kriy had slowly straightened her graceful and exquisite body, and with an unchanged smile on her face, she stuck out her tongue and gently licked her slightly dry lips twice.

"Yike, tell your uncle quickly, did you remember your uncle's identity after you left?"

Kriy noticed Lei Jun sticking out his tongue and gently licking his lips. Instead of immediately answering his question, she raised her slender white hand and gently patted her fair and smooth forehead with an apologetic expression.

"Oh dear! Oh dear! Look at my stupid brain."

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Lei, Sister Yue'er, I'm so sorry, I was so busy greeting you all that I forgot you three distinguished guests are still standing here!"
"Uncle Liu, please take your seats. I'll immediately instruct the servants to serve you tea."

As soon as Kriy finished speaking, she immediately swayed her slender waist and waved to the small door leading to the inner courtyard not far away.

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Lei, please come to the inner courtyard."

Upon seeing this, Liu Mingzhi smiled and first gently shook his head at Kriyko, then raised his right hand and pointed to the table a few steps away.

"Hehehe, Yike, there's no need to go to the inner courtyard. Just sit here for a while."

Upon hearing what Young Master Liu said, Kriy subconsciously turned her fair and slender neck and glanced at the customers who were still selecting goods next to a shelf on the left side of the shop.

"Uncle Liu, well, although there aren't many customers in the shop at noon, there are still a few scattered customers coming in to buy goods."

"Won't it be inconvenient for these guests to come and go so often?"

Hearing Kriyko's hesitant question, Liu Mingzhi smiled and gently waved his hand.

“Yike, there’s nothing inconvenient about it, nothing inconvenient about it.”

Uncle, your Uncle Lei, your sister Yue'er and I are not here to discuss anything important with you, but to buy things from your family's shop.

As for what we should buy, neither my opinion nor your Uncle Lei's opinion matters. You should just follow your sister Yue'er's suggestion.

She said she wanted to buy something, and she bought it.

After listening to Young Master Liu's eloquent reply, Krij nodded a few times with a clear understanding on his face.

"So that's how it is, so that's how it is."

"Uncle Liu, since that's the case, then I'll have to trouble the three of you. Please."

Liu Mingzhi smiled faintly and nodded slightly. While gently adjusting the sleeves of his hands, he walked unhurriedly towards the table on the left side of the counter in the shop.

Seeing this, Lei Jun and Xiao Ke'ai both silently set off and followed.

After letting out a soft sigh with her cherry lips slightly parted, Kriiko immediately turned her slender waist and looked at a maid who was sitting idly on a small stool.

"Hailey".

Hearing her mistress instruct her, the maid Hailey hurriedly rose from the small stool beneath her rounded bottom and bowed to Kriy.

"Yes, miss. What are your orders?"

"Hailey, go to the inner courtyard at the back right now and fetch a pot of hot water that has already been boiled and bring it over."

"Yes, slaves obey."

Hailey nodded respectfully to Kriiko, then quickly walked towards the small gate leading to the inner courtyard. Kriiko pursed her luscious red lips twice, then, with a smile in her eyes, walked straight towards the three young masters, including Young Master Liu, who were already seated.

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Lei, Sister Yue'er, please wait a moment, the hot water will be here soon."

"As soon as the hot water arrives, I'll make tea for you."

Upon hearing this, Liu Mingzhi smiled and nodded slightly to Kriyko, then raised his finger and pointed to the spot opposite him.

"Yike, don't just stand there, come and sit down!"
We are now in your family's shop, young lady. You are the host, and the three of us, your uncle, are the guests.

There is no reason in this world for a guest to sit down while the host stands!

"Sit down, sit down, please sit down!"

With a smile still on her beautiful face, Kriyko nodded gently twice to Young Master Liu, and immediately began to straighten her clothes and sleeves.

"Yes, I understand. I will take my seat now."

As soon as she finished speaking, she gracefully sat down in the chair behind her.

After gracefully settling into her chair, Kriyko turned slightly to look at Lei Jun, who was sitting diagonally opposite her.

“Uncle Lei, I can now answer the question you just asked me.”

Lei Jun nodded with a smile, casually flicked his folding fan and gently fanned himself against his chest.

"Yike, tell me, your uncle is listening!"

Kriyko nodded with a smile in her beautiful eyes, and gently raised her slender arm to point to the half-exposed handkerchief inside Lei Jun's shirt.

It was a Suzhou embroidery handkerchief, with exquisite lotus flowers embroidered on it.

"Uncle Lei, when you visited our home a year ago, you gave my daughter's mother a handkerchief made of Suzhou embroidery from your Great Dragon Heaven Dynasty."

To be honest, Uncle Lei, and I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me, it was because of that Suzhou embroidery handkerchief you gave my mother that my mother, my two sisters-in-law, and I learned that there was such exquisite silk in your Great Dragon Heavenly Dynasty.

Before that, my father had done silk trade with your Great Dragon Heavenly Dynasty's merchant caravans. My mother, my two sisters-in-law, and I had all seen such fine things as silk.

To be frank, we have not only seen fine things like silk, but the handkerchiefs we use every day, the clothes we wear, and the quilts on our beds are all made of silk from your Great Dragon Dynasty.

However, after we got that Suzhou embroidered silk handkerchief, we realized that the silk in the Great Dragon Dynasty was also divided into many grades!

Later, after Uncle Lei left our house, my mother, my two sisters-in-law, and I fought over that Suzhou embroidered handkerchief for a long time!

Thankfully, my two sisters-in-law and I ultimately couldn't win over my daughter's mother.

There's nothing we can do about it; after all, my daughter's mother is the elder of all three of us, her sister-in-law and me!
Moreover, that Suzhou embroidered handkerchief was a gift from you, Uncle Lei, to Mother when you first met her.

In this way, the three sisters-in-law of the youngest daughter would naturally have no chance of competing with the youngest daughter for her mother.

However, although I didn't manage to snatch the Suzhou embroidered handkerchief that Uncle Lei gave to my mother, it left a very deep impression on me.

And the Suzhou embroidered handkerchief looks exactly like the one that was peeking out from under your clothes, Uncle Lei.

Both are Suzhou embroidery handkerchiefs, both embroidered with exquisite and lifelike lotus flowers.

When I saw the exquisitely embroidered lotus flower handkerchief on your lapel, Uncle Lei, I immediately thought of you.

As soon as Kriiko's clear and melodious voice fell from her lips, Lei Jun subconsciously lowered his head to look at his chest.

Liu Mingzhi and his daughter Xiao Ke'ai also instinctively turned their eyes to look at Lei Jun's chest.

When Lei Jun saw the large section of the Suzhou embroidered handkerchief with lotus flowers embroidered on it at the front of his shirt, he suddenly realized that the handkerchief had slipped out of his clothes at some point.

Lei Jun casually pulled out a Suzhou embroidered handkerchief that had slipped out more than halfway from his chest, and then, with a smile on his face, gently shook a corner of the exquisite handkerchief a few times.

"Hahaha, I see, I see."

Uncle originally thought that you remembered who I was because of my appearance, or because of some of the things I said when I was talking to your Uncle Liu!
So, it turns out that you only remembered who your uncle was because of a mere Suzhou embroidery handkerchief!

However, for me, your uncle, this is not important at all.

"As long as you, Yike, can remember who your uncle is, that's all that matters. The reason or thing that made you remember me is completely unimportant."

Hearing Lei Jun's cheerful reply, Kriy's beautiful face was filled with guilt as she said to Lei Jun in a sweet voice, "Uncle Lei, I'm really too sorry."

Because my father has hosted too many merchant caravans from your Great Dragon Dynasty in recent years, and because I am not particularly responsible for hosting Great Dragon merchant caravans, I really can't remember every single distinguished guest who has visited our home.

My daughter is so rude, so incredibly rude.

Lei Jun heard Kriyko's apologetic reply, and casually raised his hand to wave it off to Kriyko.

"Oh dear, what's with all this talk about being impolite? It's just human nature, it's just human nature."

In this situation, let alone you, Yike, even if I were your uncle, I wouldn't be much better than you.

After all, it's been over a year since we last met.

On one hand, it was a brief encounter; on the other hand, we hadn't seen each other for over a year.

Faced with this situation, unless you are an exceptionally bright person with a photographic memory, most people in the world would be in a situation like you, Yike.

Yike, you're quite remarkable that you could recall my identity just by looking at the Suzhou embroidered handkerchief on my chest.

No, no, to be more precise, it's already incredibly impressive.

After all, I, your uncle, don't consider myself as capable as you, Yike."

As soon as Lei Jun finished speaking, Kriyko's maid, Hailey, carrying a pot of hot water, gracefully returned to the shop from the inner courtyard.
