After being exiled to Lingnan, Prime Minister Quan's family collapsed and his people were set u

Zhou Shiye patted Xingmu again, "He is in a very far away place and you can't see him. Okay, stop talking nonsense, I'm going to start telling a story."

His pleasant voice sounded in the restaurant, and the guests fell silent.

Zhou Shiye is a talented storyteller, with a cadence that can arouse the emotions of the guests. He holds a speaker that can amplify the sound, and his voice can be heard in every corner of the restaurant.

Ren Yining and Ren Ruian booked a private room on the second floor. They opened the door and window, looked at Zhou Shiye on the high platform on the first floor, and listened to his story.

There was a table of snacks and side dishes in front of the two of them.

Ren Yining smiled and said, "I didn't come last time. I only heard about someone here who told me that he was a good storyteller. The story was very exciting. I heard it with my own ears this time and thought it was really good. This trip was not in vain. .”

Ren Ruian looked at the high-spirited Zhou Shiye with a smile in his eyes, "It's quite exciting. I have another collaboration with him that you might be interested in."

"What kind of cooperation?" Ren Yining looked at Ren Ruian with bright eyes, "Brother, tell me quickly!"

Ren Ruian picked up a piece of snack and took a bite. He thought it was pretty good. He took a few more bites and then slowly answered his sister's question, "He can draw comic strips, which is the content of this story. I have read it and the drawings are very good." , even I can’t draw as well as him.”

Ren Yining was stunned for a moment, "So awesome? Have you finished drawing the comic strips? I want to buy them! I also want to buy a few more copies to give to my friends."

Ren Ruian: "I don't know if he has finished the painting. When he finishes speaking, I will ask him. After so many days, he may have painted part of it."

Ren Yining was excited. She picked up a side dish and her eyes lit up again, "This dish is quite delicious."

She ate with her head down and was so happy.

Soon after, shopkeeper He from the embroidery workshop sent someone to tell Ren Yining the news, "Miss Ren, our shopkeeper sent me to tell you that the girl who is good at embroidery has agreed to meet you, and she is in the embroidery workshop now."

Ren Yining was fascinated by the story and didn't want to leave. She waved her hand apologetically, "Tell her that I have something to do and it's not convenient for me to leave now. I will definitely apologize to her next time we meet."

……

Zhou Shitang and Lu Si were in a private room. When they saw the crowd below, their faces were all smiles.

But too many people are not good. If it is too crowded, everyone will not be able to move around, and it will be difficult for the waiter to serve food. Therefore, Zhou Shitang and Lu Sijian have discussed this issue before. When the restaurant is full, no one else will be allowed in. Waiting for people Only after you have gone out do you allow others to come in.

Lu Sijian said: "In the past few days, other restaurants have imitated us and said similar content, and they have also attracted a lot of people. There are all kinds of weird content."

Zhou Shitang expressed his understanding, "When a popular thing appears, others quickly follow it for business opportunities. If you are fast, you will have meat to eat. If you are slow, you will have to pick up what others leave."

Lu Sijian touched his chin, "That's true."

After Zhou Shiruo took her embroidered items to the embroidery shop to sell them, she heard the shopkeeper say that there was a wealthy lady who liked her embroidery and wanted to meet her, and she agreed. The shopkeeper asked her if she wanted to wait for a while, and she agreed, and then she waited for a stick of incense. The wealthy lady had something to do and couldn't leave. She expressed her understanding and went straight to Siman Restaurant.

She knew which private room Zhou Shitang was in, so she knocked on the door, heard Zhou Shitang's voice, and pushed the door open.

Zhou Shitang was the only one in the private room, and Lu Sijie had already gone downstairs.

Zhou Shiruo smiled and ran to sit next to Zhou Shitang, "Tangtang, I think I might be able to get a business."

Zhou Shitang was eating melon seeds, and she spit out the melon seed shells, "What business?"

Zhou Shiruo was filled with excitement, "The shopkeeper of the embroidery room just now told me that the eldest lady of the Ren family likes my embroidery and wants to get to know me, but it's a pity that she has something to do today and can't leave, so we can only see you next time."

"If we meet, I will definitely actively promote my embroidery. Will the business come soon? The daughter of a big family is relatively rich and likes all kinds of interesting and beautiful things. I probably know what they like. I met a daughter. She may also introduce my embroidery to other daughters, one after another, in a series."

She herself used to be like this, she liked all kinds of beautiful and fun things, and she had some understanding of the thoughts of those rich girls.

"Miss Ren?" Zhou Shitang cupped his chin and looked sideways at Zhou Shiruo, "It's quite a coincidence that the third brother's comic book collaborator is the eldest young master of the Ren family."

Zhou Shiruo was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Uncle Lu said before that the Ren family was a big family here, but I didn't expect to get to know them so quickly."

Zhou Shitang raised his eyebrows, "I heard from Uncle Lu that both Young Master Ren and Miss Ren are here. Miss Ren may have been fascinated by the story."

Zhou Shiruo nodded, "When I first listened to you telling this story, I didn't want to work. Now I listen to it again, and I'm not tired of it at all. Well, the third brother still said it beautifully. If he said it dryly, That way, I might not be that interested.”

……

He Yingheng was late in reserving a private room. There was no private room for him. He could only sit on the first floor and listen. He also ordered a table of dishes. When he saw Zhou Shiye walking up to the high platform and sitting down, he was stunned. , eyes slightly widened.

Isn't this the person he met a few days ago?

He was playing with friends outside that day and didn't want to go home. His father sent someone to catch him. He ran away desperately, and then accidentally stepped on this man's painting, which delayed him for some time. He was caught by the guards.

I didn't expect to see him here, and I didn't expect that he was the storyteller. This story is quite good. Maybe we can get acquainted and listen to the story in advance.

After Zhou Shiye finished speaking a section, he did not continue, leaving behind a sentence of "please listen to the breakdown next time" and ran directly to the second floor. Of course, the rest of the calming of the guests' emotions was left to Lu Sijian.

He Yingheng kept staring at Zhou Shiye and noticed that he was running towards the second floor. He also ran up and finally caught up with Zhou Shiye at the door of the private room.

Zhou Shiye looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of him, and recognized him as the person who accidentally stepped on his painting last time. He couldn't help but frown slightly, "I remember that we had a clear relationship last time. Don't you want to be reconciled?" Want to trouble me?"

He Yingheng took a few breaths. It was really strange. He was panting from exhaustion all the way up, but the breath of the man in front of him was still steady and his speech was very clear. He took a few breaths and shook his head, "No, I I’m not here to trouble you, I just want to make friends with you.”

The door to the private room had been opened. Zhou Shiye looked at his two sisters, then at He Yingheng, and finally took him in.

He Yingheng saw there were two other people he knew and smiled, "He Yingheng, I want to make friends with you all."

Others greeted him with a smile, but Zhou Shiye would not deliberately be cold-faced. He introduced his name with a smile and introduced his two sisters by the way.

He Yingheng walked to the side and sat down, "Brother Zhou, I found the story you told is very interesting. Can you tell me all the subsequent plot?"

"No, you have to wait until next time." Zhou Shiye shook his head with a smile. He advertised the comic strip by the way, "But you can pay attention to Yuxuan Bookshop, I will draw some paintings related to this story."

He Yingheng couldn't help but frown when he heard that he couldn't. When he heard that there were paintings, he said enthusiastically, "What paintings? Are they the ones I accidentally stepped on last time? Can you show them to me? I can buy them from you." "

Zhou Shiye shook his head again, "I can't reveal it yet. Anyway, just pay attention to the bookstore. It won't be mysterious anymore. We are doing business. Please understand." He Yingheng said.

The name Yuxuan Bookstore was quite familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before. He simply didn't think about it anymore. He just sent someone to find out. He wanted to see what the painting was.

He found that even if he made friends with Zhou Shiye, he could not know the content of the next story in advance, so he left without interest.

Zhou Shitang pointed to the next door, "Dong Ren's family is next door."

Zhou Shiye picked up his painting and said, "Come on, I'll give him the content of the painting."

So, the three Zhou brothers and sisters went to the private room next door.

Ren Ruian introduced his sister with a smile.

Zhou Shiye also introduced his sister.

Ren Ruian smiled and poured a cup of tea for the three of them. Finally, he turned his attention to Zhou Shiye and asked with a smile: "I wonder how Brother Zhou's painting is going?"

Zhou Shiye handed over the painting in his hand.

The paper is cut to the size of a book, and pictures are drawn on both the front and back. The paper is relatively thick and does not allow ink to penetrate.

Ren Ruian took it. There was no one else in the private room. He slowly unfolded the paintings and looked at them one by one. He was completely attracted.

Ren Yining was very curious. She approached Ren Ruian and took a look. Her eyes widened slightly. "This painting is too good. Can I take it home and hang it up?"

Ren Ruian refused, "No, if you want to hang it, just wait until my albums are on sale and you can come and buy a few copies to hang them up."

Ren Yining pursed his lips.

After reading it, Ren Ruian put the painting away and looked at Zhou Shiye, "I can sell it after I find someone to paint it."

He must have bound these paintings by Zhou Shiye into a book and collected them himself.

Zhou Shiye nodded, "I'm only responsible for painting, you can take care of the rest."

When Zhou Shiruo saw that they had finished discussing business, he looked at Ren Yining and went straight to the point, "Miss Ren, I heard that Shopkeeper He from the embroidery shop said that you like my embroidery."

Ren Yining was stunned, turned his head and stared at Zhou Shiruo without blinking, "It can't be such a coincidence, right? You embroidered the round fan I bought? Did you embroider that lifelike and super cute butterfly?"

Zhou Shiruo nodded with a smile, "I just bought some embroidery that I had embroidered for Shopkeeper He, and then she told me that you liked my embroidery. I was very happy after hearing that."

Ren Yining moved to Zhou Shiruo's side with apologetic eyes, "Sorry, I didn't mean not to see you. I was fascinated by the story just now. I will apologize to you."

Zhou Shiruo shook his head and said, "When you meet friends, you always send greetings to each other and agree on a time. Make sure that both parties are free before meeting. You and I have no agreement in the first place. You have nothing to apologize to me for, so you don't need to apologize to me. "

When Ren Yining heard this, the smile in her eyes widened and her attitude towards Zhou Shiruo became more friendly. She liked to make friends with such a measured person.

"One of you can draw, and the other can embroider." Ren Yining turned to look at Zhou Shitang, "Sister Zhou, can you also embroider?"

Zhou Shitang was eating melon on the side. Suddenly, he heard Ren Yining bring the topic to herself, and everyone else's eyes also fell on her, shaking their heads, "I can't embroider, I can only make some food."

Ren Yining: "It's great to be able to cook. You brothers and sisters are really versatile. You can come to my house to play with me when you have time in the future. Just tell me your names."

Zhou Shitang and Zhou Shiruo smiled and nodded.

Zhou Shiruo was thinking about how to discuss business with Ren Yining. They were now considered friends. It was not pure enough to make friends if there were interests involved.

But before Zhou Shiruo could say anything, Ren Yining said, "Miss Tuesday, your embroidery is very beautiful, can I buy it from you?"

Zhou Shiruo raised his eyes and said, "Okay, you can tell me what you like and I will embroider it according to your requirements."

Ren Yining's eyes were bright, "I like white cats. Can you help me embroider such a big screen? I want to put it in my house."

She said and gestured with her hands. The screen was as big as a person.

There is such a screen in her boudoir, but the cat lacks intelligence. With Ruoruo's embroidery ability, she might be able to embroider a cat with intelligence.

Zhou Shiruo nodded, "Okay, but it may take me a little longer."

Ren Yining smiled and said, "No problem, you don't have to worry about money. Even if we are friends, I will still pay the money. I have other friends who also like your embroidery, and I can introduce you to them." "

She found that they were not well dressed, maybe that was why they came out to do business, but this did not prevent her from making friends with them. She made friends regardless of their origins, but only based on whether they could get along with each other.

Zhou Shiruo smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Ren."

Ren Yining waved his hand, "Just call me Ningning."

Zhou Shiruo followed Shan Ruliu and called Ningning.

As a result, the relationship between the two became closer.

The few of them chatted for a while, and Zhou Shitang and the others had something to do, so they left first.

There were only two brothers and sisters from the Ren family left in the private room.

Ren Ruian picked up the paintings, "I heard that Miss Zhou cooperated with the shopkeeper of this restaurant, and some of the dishes are her recipes."

Ren Yining suddenly realized: "No wonder Zhou Lang would tell stories here, that's it. But brother, what do you want to express?"

Ren Ruian smiled meaningfully, "Don't you find it strange? They are dressed like farmers, but their behavior and various skills are not at all like what a farmer should have."

"What does that have to do with it?" Ren Yining didn't care at all. "I don't care about my background when I make friends, so what does it have to do with who they are? Anyway, I can talk to them at this stage. I think They are the ones who got hit." (End of Chapter)
