Chapter 698 Report
At the request of Chime Bell, Zhuzi Niang opened the door and looked around, and nodded to her nephew after confirming that there was no one there.Chime understood, immediately flashed out of the courtyard door, and ran away in a hurry.

Soon he ran out of the alley and turned onto the street.

After running two more streets, Chime Zhong slowed down and walked towards Shen's residence.He paid special attention along the way to make sure that no one was following him.

After returning to the courtyard of the sixth young master of Shen's mansion, he ran straight to the study, where the sixth young master was waiting for him.

As soon as he entered the study, Chime Bell panted slightly and bowed to salute the young master. Shen Weibai, who was originally sitting, suddenly stood up: "Chime Bell, there is no need to be formal, just sit down and take a breath."

He even walked up to the table himself and poured a cup of herbal tea for Chime.

Chime was overwhelmed by the flattery, and hurriedly took the herbal tea and thanked the young master vigorously.

Shen Weibai waved his hand, indicating that you are welcome.He turned around and closed the door of the study.

Chime bell hastily put the herbal tea cup on the corner of the table. He knew that the young master must be in a panic now, so he decided to talk about the business first.

"Young master, my little cousin has gone to see it. The opening ceremony went smoothly and was done very well. Please rest assured."

When the chime was finished, Shen Weibai's hanging heart also fell, and became stable.Then he took a deep breath, his tense body relaxed immediately, and finally there was a smile on his face.

"Tell me about the specific situation at the restaurant." Shen Weibai walked towards the chime, pushed him directly onto the chair and sat down, while he himself sat on the chair next to him, eager to ask questions.

After a few breaths of restraint, the chime finally let go, and began to repeat what he had told his cousin.

"My little cousin said that the new exhibition of Liji Restaurant is very neat and beautiful. There is a big red silk cloth hanging on the door. After the red silk cloth is torn off, there are new couplets inside. He said that he heard those people read it, as if Asking Wenxiang to get off the horse, what a stop. Anyway, the writing is very good, the couplets are good, the characters are good, and there is a golden light."

Golden light?Shen Weibai repeated in a low voice, and then laughed, probably those words were covered with gold powder.

Get off the horse after smelling the fragrance, and stop the car with the ( ) smell.

Even if it is not complete, it is really a wonderful combination!

Chime bell opened the chatter box, but he didn't even notice the young master's words, and continued to speak with great interest.Just telling his cousin what he saw gave him an inexplicable excitement.

Then a master announced the reopening of Lee Kee Restaurant.The younger cousin said that he also saw a lady, a young lady, and an old man on the table in front of the restaurant.

Shen Wei nodded with his lips raised, that must be Yun Xianiang, Yun Xia and Yun Xia's grandfather.

"Then let's set off firecrackers, crackling, crackling..."

This time Shen Weibai interjected: "Stop it, needless to say so many times the sound of firecrackers, young master, I know it's that loud."

Chime bell smiled embarrassedly, he just wanted to say more about the sound of firecrackers to bring out the lively atmosphere at that time.In other words, Zhuzi said crackling five times.But seeing the young master's anxious expression, Chime Bell scolded himself in his heart, how could he forget the young master's mood while talking, it really shouldn't be.

So he calmed down and talked about lion dance.

This time Shen Weibai interjected again: "Lion dance? Did you invite a lion dance team to cheer you up?"

"Returning to the young master, it is exactly."

Really ingenious, Shen Weibai said with a smile.

This must be Yunxia's idea, she can always come up with fresh and wonderful ideas.

"Don't serve new dishes? Young master, are you saying that Liji Restaurant has not launched new dishes? My little cousin ran back and told me before he saw the dishes being served, so that he could come back and tell you .”

Chime thought that the sixth young master wanted to know if Liji Restaurant had new dishes, and regretted it for a while, and asked Zhuzi's cousin to look at it for a while.But my aunt said that the people who could see the food being served were all people who wanted to eat in the restaurant, and the pillars had been blasted out at that time.

Shen Weibai laughed out loud: "It's okay, it's okay, the chime will continue."

Seeing that the young master was in good spirits, Chime was relieved and continued to talk about the lion dance.

"Back to the young master, those lion dances are very energetic. When the little cousin talked about the lion dance, he was so excited that he couldn't stop his hands and feet. He said that the lion was tumbling, jumping, and spinning. It’s very beautiful, even more beautiful than any lion dance I’ve seen before.” Chime bell was excited, and transformed the scene described by cousin Zhuzi into actions according to his own imagination, and he began to gesture without knowing it.

Shen Weibai squinted his eyes, imagining the performance of the lion dance team, the gongs and drums were blaring, and the lion dancers danced hard, it must be an unprecedented grand occasion.

He crossed his arms, raised his eyebrows, and looked at the chime with great interest as he talked and danced excitedly.

"...In the end, every lion spit out banners, all of which were auspicious words. My little cousin listened to those scholars reading, but he only remembered three." Chime Bell held out three fingers in frustration Head, sorry to say.

"It's good to be able to remember three, let's hear it." Shen Weibai was not angry at all, and encouraged him.

The chime bell nodded hurriedly, and began to recite the banner on the back of the pillar: "There is a prosperous business, wealth and wealth, and there is one more, what is the other one?" Great.

Well, he chopped off another pillar.

"Wealth is abundant, wealth is prosperous, prosperity is growing day by day, everything is going well..." Seeing the chime clock circling anxiously, Shen Weibai smiled and uttered a lot of auspicious words in one breath.

After being reminded by the young master, the chime bell finally remembered, and hurriedly shouted: "Master, you are too powerful, and there is one more thing that means success in everything."

Shen Weibai laughed loudly again, and Chime Bell followed the young master's smile, with a naive smile.

"The chime will continue." After laughing, Shen Weibai hastily told him to continue.

Chime immediately straightened up and continued: "Then everyone applauded, and firecrackers sounded again."

This time the chime did not crackle again.

"After the firecrackers are set off, the ribbon cutting will begin."

Shen Weibai asked strangely: "What ribbon cutting?"

"My little cousin said that it was a lady who cut a red ribbon with scissors in her hand. The master said, yes, the master said he was the wife's brother."

"Chime, can you just talk about the ribbon-cutting ceremony?" Shen Weibai was extremely anxious, this was the first time he had heard of the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Chime swallowed, and quickly recalled what the master said to the young master: "The master said, the two ends of this red ribbon are tied with the present and the past of the hotel, cut it off with a knife, and the colored balls fall into the plate, and the It means, it means that the restaurant is more brilliant than in the past."

When Zhu Zi said this sentence to him, he listened very carefully, but now he recited it quickly.

Shen Weibai stood up and paced around the room with his hands behind his back, murmuring as he walked: So it was so, so it was so brilliant.

Let's just say that Yunxia will definitely come up with an unforgettable opening ceremony.Unfortunately, I couldn't be there to see it with my own eyes.

While the young master was walking back and forth in the room, Chime Bell took a few sips of herbal tea, his mouth was really parched just now.

After turning around a few times, Shen Weibai returned to the chair, sat down with his clothes lifted, and motioned for the chime to speak again.

"The old man also said: Let everyone eat well, eat deliciously, and spend less money! The people in front of the restaurant all said that they would join in the show!"

Shen Weibai nodded, it seems that the business of Yunxia's restaurant is booming.

Raising his hand to scratch his head, the chime bell said again: "Master, after the ribbon-cutting, Ya Liyuan will start singing."

Although Cousin Zhuzi was talking about Yang Liyuan, as the sixth young master's personal servant, he knew immediately that it was what the young master often said, the famous opera troupe Ya Liyuan in the capital.

Shen Weibai's eyes flickered, his hands gripped the arm of the chair tightly, he leaned forward, trying to get up, but finally sat back.

Yunxia is so talented that she even invited Ya Liyuan, the performance must be a sensation.

On the one hand, he was happy for Yunxia's family, but on the other hand, he thought that he would not be able to help at all, so he couldn't help feeling sad.If it weren't for the pressure from my family, I would definitely compose the music myself and ask someone to sing it at the celebration.In terms of rhythm, Shen Weibai is confident that he can completely overwhelm others and steal the limelight.

Even if it is Ya Liyuan, he will be equal to it.

But these are just his assumptions, ever since he knew the attitude of his grandfather and elder brother, and after he made false claims with them, he understood that he had to cut off the connection with Yunxia. Naturally, these assumptions came to naught.

Even chime bells, he didn't dare to send them to watch the scene. His grandfather and elder brother were all staring at him and the servants around him. If they found out that he had sent someone there, they might do something unfavorable to Yunxia.

It was not easy for him to reach an agreement with his grandfather. He would listen to his grandfather's orders in the future, and his grandfather promised him verbally. Since then, he has let the Li family go.

So he can't take the lead in breaking this balance, otherwise he will be caught by his grandfather and elder brother, and troubles will follow.

Thinking of this, his eyes lit up, his hands hidden in his sleeves were tightly clenched into fists, and a voice in his heart shouted stubbornly: Shen Weibai, you have to work hard, grab the authority of the Shen family earlier, and then it will be you It's all over.

Fortunately, he is doing pretty well now, getting better and better.

"Ya Liyuan was very well prepared, and the opera she sang made the audience's hands go red." Chime Zhong remembered how his cousin was making gestures and clapping hands when he told the story, and his hands were all red, he smiled and told the young master Speaking of this crop.

"Oh, so what kind of performances are there in Talking Ya Liyuan?" Shen Weibai raised his eyebrows and asked Chime Bell.

"Back to young master, the first program is singing. My little cousin said it was Eleven Niang who sang. It sounds very nice."

Chime Bell told the young master Zhuzi's original words, and Shen Weibai answered: "Young lady with a golden voice, her singing voice is naturally excellent."

"That's right, the young master must know. The second program is even more exciting, it's drumming. My little cousin said that there were nine men playing drums."

Do you play drums?Shen Weibai didn't think it was unusual, it's very common to play cheerful drum music to add to the fun at the opening ceremony.

"Master, do you think it's strange? There was a man with a bowl of water on his head when he was beating the drums. After the drums were played, the water didn't spill out at all." Chime Bell stood up excitedly and gestured away.

It is really amazing to beat the drum against the water bowl without leaking any water.

Shen Weibai sat up straight, listened to the chimes and gesticulated the reaction of the audience, and also praised his skills.

"Master Hui, you are so right. My little cousin said that everyone at the scene shouted, do it again, do it again." Chime Bell spoke more vigorously when he heard the young master's praise.

After talking about beating the drums, the expression of chime bells became even more worshipful. Next came the dance. A group of dancers danced beautifully on the stage. When they jumped to the middle, they hugged each other and formed a circle. When they turned around sharply, everyone found that the original The green dance skirts all turned pink.

The little cousin said that he didn't even blink his eyes, and somehow it turned from green to red, young master, do you think they can do tricks?
Shen Weibai was stunned for a moment, it was fresh, and he could change clothes in the middle of the dance, which was an eye-opener.

He couldn't help imagining what he saw at the scene, the graceful dancers were dancing gracefully, and when everyone was watching with interest, the clothes on the dancers changed from green to red, dreamlike and beautiful. magnificent.

Yaliyuan is still improving, that's why it is able to choreograph such a beautiful dance.

Shen Weibai's original interest lies in this, but now he has to give up this kind of leisure interest that does not compete with the world, and is forced to embark on the road of fighting for power and profit.

In just a few months, everything seemed to have changed drastically. One can imagine his mood at this moment.

Chime chime was talking briskly, seeing that the young master's smiling face suddenly went numb, his eyes fixed on the opposite wall, and he remained motionless.

Chime quickly shut up.

The young master was in a bad mood, and the chime bell was in his eyes, and he was worried in his heart.

During the recent period, he found that the young master is often alone in a daze, don't look at the young master and the old master, the young master is talking and laughing together, looking very happy, but when he returns to his yard, the young master's face is full of tears. The smile fell away immediately.

Although the young master didn't laugh out loud in the past, every time he laughed, it was a real smile from the heart; now the young master's smile seemed to be smiling, but Chime Bell felt that the young master's smile was forced.Otherwise, why did the young master stop smiling immediately when he was alone?

Chime Bell even missed the days when the young master was studying in the Li family school. When the young master came home every day, he would talk to himself and laugh by himself.

The young master is a good man, it's better to smile.

When I was talking about Liji Restaurant with the young master today, it was rare for the young master to smile happily twice, why did he suddenly feel sad again?Did I say something wrong?Chime bell thought of this, and quickly thought about whether he had said something wrong just now.Tried it again, it seems there is nothing wrong with it.

He couldn't help sticking out his tongue secretly, and looked at the young master again, still maintaining the posture just now.

So he had no choice but to curl up quietly on the chair, waiting for the young master's mood to improve.At the same time, I prayed secretly, hoping that the young master can figure it out soon.

Perhaps his prayer was heard by the heavens. After a while, the young master blinked and turned to look at him: "Chime!"

"The little one is here." Chime bell thanked God in his heart, and at the same time leaned close to the young master and stood bowed, and answered with a smile.

"Let's talk about the next program." Shen Weibai raised his chin.
