The daily life of a charming girl who made a fortune in ancient times

Chapter 199 Departure to Changzhou

After driving away Shen Ge and the eye-catching Zheng Xingchu, Shen Cunyu sat on the railing of the observation deck on the second floor of the Meiyuan Garden, looking into the distance, tapping his long legs with his fingers.

Infected by her, Lin Ruyu also let go of her dignity and sat comfortably on the railing.Unexpectedly, the spring breeze blows the fine fluff on Lin Ruyu's cloak with a trace of undetectable warmth. Lin Ruyu feels her neck itches, she can't help but rub her head against the fluff, and then smiles openly.

Her smile is better than a garden full of spring.

Such a delicate and beautiful flower bone was easily picked by Shen Ge.Shen Cunyu once again lamented the good fortune of his silly brother, "I plan to set off the day after tomorrow, go to the valley where He Jiongming Tibetan soldiers in Liyang, and then return to Wolongdi. When do you and Shen Ge plan to get married?"

Lin Ruyu replied obediently, "It's up to my father to make the decision."

"It's early." Shen Cunyu reached out and raised Lin Ruyu's delicate chin, "If I have a daughter as good as you, I will definitely save you until I marry again."

Shen Cunyu made such a frivolous action, but it was very seductive.Lin Ruyu looked at her indisputably handsome and flamboyant face and asked, "Cousin, do you have someone you like?"

Shen Cunyu smiled badly, "What if I say I like you?"

Lin Ruyu didn't hesitate, "I immediately resigned from my engagement with Shen Ge and married my cousin!"

Shen Cunyu laughed loudly, "It's better to say goodbye, I'm afraid that that brat Shen Ge will run over and fight me desperately."

Shen Ge, who was sitting in the small pavilion outside the building, saw Shen Cunyu molesting his sweetheart, his anger soared, and he turned to look at Zheng Xingchu.

Zheng Shengchu poured him a cup of tea with a smile, and said truthfully, "If you want to tease me to get angry with your cousin, then you have miscalculated. Not only will your cousin not be angry, but she will also drag your fiancée to watch a good show."

Shen Ge...

Sure enough, those who are with my cousin are not normal people.

Zheng Shengchu picked up the tea and took a sip slowly, "Did your cousin tell you that she is leaving?"

"No, but I can tell." Shen Ge also took a sip of tea.After opening the teahouse, he tasted too much tea. The cup of tea in front of him was clear in color but overflowing with tea fragrance. Once he tasted it, he knew it was not Fanghuayuan tea, but Zheng Shengchu should have brought it over.

As expected of a child of an honorable family, he is so particular about going out.

Zheng Shengchu poured another cup for Shen Ge, and said gently, "This is the tea produced in the Zheng family's tea garden in Shezhou. I drank it pretty well, so I brought some back. If Shen Dong's family likes it too, I'll send you some tea." .If you are a good match, you can send people to the Zheng family tea garden in Shezhou to buy."

"Thank you." Shen Ge thanked him, took another sip of the tea, "If Mr. Zheng has anything to say, it's okay to say it directly."

Shen Ge's temperament is actually very similar to Cunyu's, but due to his status, he behaved a lot more tactfully.Zheng Shengchu began to look forward to Shen Ge's return to the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion and the changes after he became the prince, "What are your plans after you come back from Changzhou?"

Shen Ge didn't mention the matter of going to Wolongdi to meet Shen Cunyu, but only talked about business, "Go to Raozhou and Hezhou, and open the auction house branch."

Zheng Shengchu sipped his tea with a smile, and said directly, "Anzhou is good, and we can open a branch."

In fact, Shen Ge has already arranged for manpower to go to Anzhou, but it is not for business.Zheng Shengchu tested him, so he also took the opportunity to test Zheng Shengchu, "Anzhou is too far away, I don't know how the market is going there. Mr. Zheng, tell me?"

Zheng Xingchu said with a smile, "I'll talk to Mr. Shen when I come back from Anzhou."

When Zheng Xingchu went to Anzhou, could it be that his cousin was going and he wanted to follow?What did he tell himself?
This person is very annoying and has a lot of thoughts, Shen Ge will not follow his words, just pretend not to understand, "Okay, when Mr. Zheng comes back, I will treat you to tea."

Zheng Xingchu did not expect Shen Ge to be so calm, and slowly raised his eyes and asked, "Do you want to know, who am I going with?"

Shen Ge raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Zheng Shengchu, "I'm very boring, I'm not interested in anything except making money."

On the viewing platform of the Plum Garden, Shen Cunyu told Lin Ruyu to be careful when going out, and Lin Ruyu also gave Shen Cunyu three bottles of the detoxification pills he prepared, "These cousins ​​bring them, just in case."

Shen Cunyu accepted it directly, and when he got up and was about to go downstairs with Lin Ruyu, he seriously told him, "When you go out, you must pay attention to safety, and when you are in doubt, be safe."

Lin Ruyu nodded in response, and said to Shen Cunyu, "He Jiongming is scheming and ruthless, cousin should be careful."

"Okay." Shen Cunyu agreed, went downstairs with his arms around Lin Ruyu's shoulders, sent her to Shen Ge, and said with disgust on his face, "You two continue to stroll, there are still some things to do in the yamen, I will take a step first. Later You don’t have to send me off, I’m tired of that scene, we’ll meet later.”

Zheng Xingchu slightly nodded to Shen Ge and Lin Ruyu, then quickly chased after him, "Cunyu, wait for me."

"I'm going to get down to business, so stay where you're cool." Shen Cunyu quickened his pace without turning his head.Zheng Xingchu looked weak, but his pace was not slow at all.

Not long after Shen Cunyu left Xuanzhou City, Lin Ruyu, Shen Ge, and Dafu also bid farewell to their families at the pier, boarded the Shen family's large passenger ship and rushed to Changzhou.

After Lin Ruyu returned to Xuanzhou from Haolianzhai by boat, she never went out by boat.Sitting in the comfortable and stable big boat at this moment, looking at the sparkling river, her mood also opened up a lot.

Dafu was at the table, holding "The Analects of Confucius" with a sad face and reading silently.Shen Ge sat opposite Lin Ruyu, looking at the river with her.

From Xuanzhou to Changzhou, it takes four days to sail with the wind and the water.In other words, in these four days, he can always be with his sweetheart.Shen Ge was happy in his heart, and his face was full of joy, "Ruyu, please tell me about your father-in-law. What does your father-in-law like and hate?"

Daddy's favorite?Lin Ruyu withdrew her gaze and looked at the account book on the table. She hadn't seen her father for a long, long time in two lifetimes, "Father is the eldest son in the family, and he always acts like the eldest son outside, but he is very lenient to my mother and me. , like a child in front of his mother. He likes to read travel notes and make friends..."

Although we haven't seen each other for many years, but Lin Ruyu's words started, only to realize that she has not forgotten at all.Lin Dafu also put down his book and listened carefully.

After Lin Ruyu finished speaking, Shen Ge already had a preliminary understanding of his father-in-law, whom he had never met: he was very shrewd, not easy to fool, he regarded Ruyu as the jewel in his palm, and it was not easy to marry his daughter; Yu's marriage was ordered by his mother-in-law, and even if his father-in-law disliked him, he would not object too much.

After figuring out the key points, Shen Ge was overjoyed, brewed the tea and handed it to his sweetheart, "I'm thirsty after talking so much, have a cup of sweet tea."

This sweet tea was improved by Shen Ge following his own suggestion and made by Mr. Tea Maker in the teahouse, and it sold very well.Lin Ruyu also liked it very much. She picked up the teacup and took a sip happily, but saw Dafu's sad face.

Lin Ruyu put down her teacup and asked, "What is Brother Dafu worrying about?"

Lin Dafu clenched the book in his hand, "Second sister, will foster father think I'm stupid?"
