Chapter 197
Tongfu Inn.
Zhao Shun concentrated on reading the book, looking up from time to time at the little daughter-in-law who was huddled under the quilt and reading miscellaneous books, the atmosphere seemed very comfortable.
Shen Xian lay on the soft quilt, dangling his calves, looking very leisurely.
The newly bought house has not yet been handed over, she has nothing to do these days, and it is rare to be quiet and at ease. Although she vaguely felt that she had forgotten something, she couldn't remember it for a while, so she didn't take it to heart.
Although the doors and windows were closed at this time, the house did not feel warm for a long time. After all, the houses lived by the ancients were naturally not as airtight as modern metropolises.
A trace of coolness climbed onto Shen Xian's snow-white neck, she rolled over and sat up with a gulu, put on her embroidered shoes and ran to Zhao Shun's side, and put his hand on her face.
"Hey, my husband, your hands are so cold."
Zhao Shun pinched Shen Xian's baby fat face, and found Shen Xian's 'strong' counterattack, the sharp little canine teeth were full of threats.
"Wrong, wrong, lady, I was wrong."
Seeing how cute she is, Zhao Shun repeatedly begged for mercy, and when he encountered incomprehension and confusion while studying, he immediately collapsed.
"Hey!"
Shen Xian stood up happily, and walked towards the door, muttering: "I'll go to Xiao Er to ask for a charcoal basin to warm you up."
"Thank you, lady."
Zhao Shun thanked him with a light smile, and turned his gaze back to the tree. The problem that had troubled him before suddenly became clear. With a good mood, he even made the progress of his studies much faster.
Shen Xian asked for a charcoal basin from Xiao Er, carefully grasping the handles on both sides with both hands, his little face was reddened by the fiery red charcoal.
Putting the charcoal basin by Zhao Shun's side, Shen Xian called him twice, but when he deposited it in the book and didn't respond, he shrank obediently into the bed.
Time passed slowly, and it was noon without knowing it.
Shen Xian stretched his waist and turned out of the bed, planning to go downstairs to order a table of delicious dishes.
As soon as he left the door, Shen Xian saw the brothers and sisters of the Niu family coming back from outside, their faces were full of joy.
"Why are you so happy today? The business of the shop is settled?"
Niu Yu nodded excitedly, grabbed Shen Xian's sleeve and said triumphantly: "We've been running around for the past two days, the shops in the capital are really too expensive, fortunately, I met a kind shopkeeper today, willing to be the first Charge us a little less money every month."
Seeing Niu Yu so happy, Shen Xian suddenly remembered like a dream when he rented a cheap house to share with his friends in his previous life when he first came to Shanghai to rent a house.
However, this memory is not good, because she was cheated by a black intermediary in the end.
To be on the safe side, Shen Xian asked a bit more, "Have you paid your money?"
Niu Yu nodded again and again, "Of course I did. The owner of the shop said that there are several people who are interested in the shop. If you miss it, there will be no more."
As soon as Shen Xian heard this, he felt a toothache, why is this routine so familiar.
"Then have you verified his identity?"
Niu Yu still didn't react at this moment, and replied: "I heard from his buddy that the landlord is the shopkeeper of Shubaozhai."
Shen Xian slapped her forehead, and her dead memories began to attack her. Back then, she was forced to pay the money after listening to the agency's words, and the agency boasted that she was one of the top hundreds in the country, and she never verified it.
Niu Lei's heart skipped a beat with Shen Xian's expression, and he had an ominous premonition.
"How much money did you spend? Have you ever seen him show the deed of the shop?"
Hearing Shen Xian's question, Niu Yu froze for a moment.
"It cost 300 taels, but I didn't remember the contract."
Shen Xian let out a deep breath, took Niu Yu's hand and said, "I'll go to Shubaozhai with you to make sure."
Niu Yu was still confused in his mind at the moment, and asked for no reason: "Sister Shen, what are you going to do?"
He gritted his teeth angrily, "We may have been deceived."
"impossible!"
Niu Yu jumped up anxiously, and said excitedly: "Where we talked with the landlord until he agreed to rent to us. How could he be a liar?"
Shen Xian poked her head angrily and said: "If you feel that they are liars, how can they lie to you!"
After leaving the Tongfu Inn, Shen Xian took the Niu family brothers and sisters all the way north, asking for the location of 'Shubaozhai' along the street.
As a result, the three of them asked all over Nancheng, and no one had heard of such a place.
"No, I don't believe in evil, I'm going to take a look at the house we rented."
Taking chances, Niu Yu rushed to the shop he rented just now, but as soon as he got to the door, he saw people coming and going from that shop.
Niu Yu became anxious immediately, stepped forward and grabbed a man by the collar in three steps and asked, "Who are you and why are you in my shop?"
Xiao Er who was caught was stunned for a moment, then broke free from Niu Yu's hand, and said in a drawn-out tone: "Where did you come from, madman, when did our shopkeeper's shop become yours?"
Niu Yu stomped her feet angrily, and she raised her voice and said, "I just rented this, and it's clearly written in black and white."
As he said that, Niu Yu took out a contract from his bosom and placed it in front of the waiter.
Xiao Er took a fixed look, then realized that he could not read, and then shouted loudly.
"Shopkeeper, someone is looking for trouble, come out quickly."
As soon as the words fell, a lady wearing a red sarong and a white apron hurried out from the back kitchen.
"Who dares to trouble my old lady!"
Xiaoer pointed at Niu Yu, "That's her, as soon as she came in, she said that the shop is hers!"
Niu Yu held up the contract unconvinced, "I really paid the money."
The proprietress in the red skirt walked over quickly, looked at the contract, and said with a sympathetic face: "Girl, I'm afraid you've been cheated, we don't have anyone called Fan Li."
Probably because she was afraid that Niu Yu would not believe it, the proprietress took out the title deed from the counter, and the owner of the title deed had the word 'Hua Sheng' written on it.
"Girl, I came to the shop today and found that the door was pried open. I thought it was a thief, but it turned out to be a liar."
As soon as the words fell, Niu Yu couldn't hold back anymore, her eyes were red, and she held back her tears for a long time.
"Sister Shen, I...I'm really being deceived!"
Shen Xian has just confirmed with the nearby merchants that this shop really has an owner, and it has been open for several years, so it should not be with a gang of scammers.
Now that the liar has disappeared, it is difficult to find them.
Seeing Niu Yu's stubborn face and refusing to cry, Shen Xian quickly hugged her in his arms and pressed her head on his shoulder.
"Okay, okay, it's okay, it's just a little money."
The proprietress of the shop sighed unceasingly, that was 300 taels, and I could not earn 300 taels in a few months.
Niu Yu followed his neck, crying, and said aggrievedly: "But my brother and I saved up from morning to night for a month or two, and only saved 1000 taels, and now he cheated out half of it."
The proprietress in the red skirt originally planned to go up to comfort her, but she was stunned when she heard Niu Yu's words, earning 1000 taels in a month or two?Who is comforting who in our family!
Shen Xian silently nodded her head, and said softly: "It's okay, it's okay, just spend money to buy a lesson, and I'll sell you a shop later."
