Chapter 18
"Old lady, the eldest girl is back." A maid who also wore a green skirt said as she walked into the dining room.

The old lady Wan Shi who was sitting in the main seat said slowly: "Then prepare for dinner."

"Yes." The maid bowed and stepped back.

When Shen Xi got home, she finally remembered that she was late home, maybe her grandmother and the others were already waiting for her in the dining room.Today, she was about to be taught a lesson by her grandmother again. She stuck out her tongue, quickened her pace and took the little maid Qiu Ju to trot all the way into the dining room.

"What do you look like recklessly? A lady of every family must look like a lady of every family. I don't tell you in advance when I come back after a time. Your father is so busy with business and is still waiting for you here. Next time, don't do it again." Going out!" As soon as Shen Xi entered the door, Wan Shi saw it, she walked too quickly and her forehead was a little broken, and the maid who followed her was actually holding a big bag of things in her hands, Wan Shi really felt awkward.

"Sister Xi is still young, and I was more mischievous when I was her age. But fortunately, you have taught me after I married, and now I have a little appearance. In the future, my mother-in-law will spend more time teaching Sister Xi. Today Let's eat first."

Mrs. Song knew that her mother-in-law valued a woman's words and deeds most, so it was not easy for her to speak up for Shen Xi, but some flattery temporarily calmed down Mrs. Wan's anger, "Okay, it's not up to you to do what Miss Xi is doing now. "

Song Shi nodded to Shen Xi quietly, and Shen Xi knew it was time to sit down.As soon as she sat down, Shen Xi asked Qiu Ju to open the oil paper wrapped with the steamed buns, "I saw that people on the street were buying the steamed buns from this shop today, and I had never seen the style before, so I wanted to buy them for myself. The family members have a taste."

Song looked at the big bag and said with a smile: "You child is too honest, why did you buy so many, how can you still eat after a pancake, I am afraid that only your father and elder brother can eat. "

"I'm not that stupid. I only planned to buy a few, but the little lady who sold cooking cakes said that my father had done a lot of good things for the people in Xunyang Mansion, so she insisted on giving them to me." Shen Xi said Wan Wan deliberately glanced at Shen She, "The little lady also said that my brother helped her a few times before."

Shen She ignored the ridicule in Shen Xi's words, and said solemnly: "It's just that I happened to meet, so I just helped out."

Only then did Shen She know that Ye Xing had already opened a shop in Fucheng, and he had also heard about the fact that Guanshi Wan had poached the dim sum master. He was worried that Ye Xing would not be able to sell dim sum in Tong's cottage in the future.

When sharing the pancakes and steamed buns, because Shen Xi had ordered Qiu Ju on the way, he must give Shen She the red rose-shaped steamed buns. When Shen She saw Shen Xi mouthing him "red beans", he had no choice but to pick up the delicate and beautiful buns. The red rose steamed buns that are about to drip, I thought that I would not let her know the secret if I knew it earlier.

"It's hard for her to think of making biscuits so beautiful, she's such a caring child." Mrs. Song picked up a biscuit and praised, Shen Ting on the side also nodded.

But Wan said meaningfully: "It is indeed a caring one. She deliberately said in public that her brother helped her. After that, whoever dares to touch her small shop easily and praise your father again, no one can pick it." What a mistake, what a born businessman."

Wan's words made Shen She immediately think of the way Ye Xing deliberately pretended to be familiar with him in front of Wan Guanshi that day. At that time, Ye Xing's fingertips trembled slightly but pretended to be calm, which made him feel softer. It's not easy, and it doesn't matter if you take advantage of it a little.

Ye Xing never expected that Wan Shi would see through her intention of sending things this time. If she heard that she was born to be a businessman, she might still be complacent, but now she is at most just a small street vendor, rubbing so much every day. The many times of meeting had exhausted her physically and mentally.However, she felt happy when she saw a pile of scattered copper coins in the box on the bed. After a rough calculation, she should be able to earn nearly two thousand Wen today.

Wang Shi was only a little better than Ye Xing. Seeing that her daughter was too tired to lift her hands, she said distressedly, "Should we hire someone to help?"

Ye Xing had wanted to invite someone for a long time, but the money at home suddenly ran out after buying a shop. She knew that with Wang's cautious character, she would never agree to it anyway, so she didn't mention it, and wanted to wait to make a paragraph. It's time for Mrs. Wang to feel exhausted.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang felt sorry for her, so she took the initiative to invite someone on the first day, Ye Xing was overjoyed, she immediately sat up from the bed, forgetting that she was still sore.

"Oh, it hurts so much." Ye Xing rubbed her shoulders, "That's great mother, you finally figured it out, if I don't ask for help, my arm will be broken."

"You, you are always so reckless. What if you get hurt?" Wang hurriedly massaged Ye Xing's shoulder. people."

This Ye Xing had thought about it a long time ago, Fucheng could not be found for the time being, it would be bad if Wan Guanshi poached people again, the risk was too great.Their family doesn't know many people outside Fucheng, and the only ones who seem trustworthy are Dazhu's family.

"Let's find Aunt Lin. You told me that she does a good job on the stove, and she is also hardworking and willing to work. It is most suitable to come to us."

"Da Zhu and Da Niu helped us before, and our two families can't communicate with each other in a fair and honest way. Now it's not good to invite her to work in the shop?"

Ye Xing said disapprovingly: "What's wrong with that? Our family used to have no money and power, and being with Aunt Lin would only cause them to be isolated in the village. It's different now, we can pay Aunt Lin, and she will It’s also easier to help the family. If I offered money to hire someone in the village, there would definitely be a bunch of people scrambling to come, but I just don’t like their fluff.”

Mrs. Wang can understand Mrs. Lin's difficulties. Dazhu is not too young. To marry a decent daughter-in-law requires a lot of dowry. , Too much and too little can easily make the relationship stiff.

"Then how much do you think is suitable for a day?" Seeing Ye Xing's appearance, Wang knew that she had planned to recruit people for a long time, so she asked Ye Xing deliberately.

"Hehe, I asked Guanshi Tong about it. A man works in Fucheng for one hundred coins a day, and our shop is not as tiring as those coolies. Let's give her eighty coins a day." Ye Xing discovered for the first time that Wang's character turned out to be so interesting, she had guessed it and asked herself on purpose.

"Just do as you said. I heard people say that Dazhu is moving goods at the dock. He will probably be off work in a while. I will go to the dock to talk to him later."

"Mom, let me go. You rest at home. It's not sure if Aunt Lin will come tomorrow." Ye Xing also wanted Wang to rest for a while, and asked to find Dazhu, "Besides, he saved me. No matter how you say it, I have to thank him face to face.”
