Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 202 Persuasion (2)

Li Shi sighed again: "Don't be in a hurry, you can't do it, you were not listening in the room just now, I don't know how presumptuous that child is, alas..."

Sun Nanny thought to herself, now the only one who can make Li Shi sigh and shake her head is the eldest grandma Shen Shi.

A while ago, it was also because of the eldest grandma that Li Shi was so worried that she got angry, and finally fell ill, and it took nearly half a month on and off to recover.

In the past few days, it finally seemed to calm down a bit, but it happened that the eldest young mistress made trouble again, which made her feel unhappy again.

The master is unhappy, and the slave will not have a good life.

Nanny Sun knew very well that she couldn't avoid this errand, so she hurriedly replied: "Yes, I know, I will leave early tomorrow morning."

Li Shi reminded again: "Remember to go early and return early, don't delay too long."

Nanny Sun hummed, then immediately turned around and went back to her room to start packing her bags.

Seeing her leaving, Li Shi put one hand on her forehead and couldn't help sighing again.

She has never seen such a woman who doesn't know what is good or bad, who doesn't know what is important, who lives in such a stable and prosperous life, but is still dissatisfied everywhere, and insists on trying to do it.

Alright, since you insist on doing it, let's see who will lose face in the end.

Li Shi decided that Shen Yuechen didn't know what was good or bad, so Shen Yuechen was simply prepared to know what was good or bad to the end.

She knew it was better to do well than to speak well.Since she has already boasted a lot in front of the old man, then she must make something famous.Otherwise, the loss outweighs the gain, and you will shoot yourself in the foot with a stone.

Her mother-in-law, Li Shi, had a deep prejudice against her, and she just waited for her to make a mistake and then take the opportunity to divorce.

Shen Yuechen knew very well that this time she could only succeed, not fail.

Early in the morning, Zhu Jintang took out 1000 taels of silver in his own name from the cashier with the right cards, and then went to the Double Happiness Inn in person.

Guan Siye was very happy to see the distinguished guests welcome him, he prepared the first-class food and wine, and just wanted to have a few drinks with Zhu Jintang, and establish friendship.

Who knows, Zhu Jintang didn't really appreciate it, he just wanted to settle the matter of the store with him early, and he had no interest in drinking and chatting.

Seeing this, Fourth Master Guan didn't want to force others to do anything, so he just took out the house deed and land deed that had been drawn up in advance.

It took Zhu Jintang about two cups of tea to read the contract clearly and see that there was nothing wrong with it, so he signed it without hesitation.

Fourth Master Guan took the two 500 taels of silver notes, and he couldn't help but tsk his tongue: "It really is a pleasure to do business with Mr. Zhu. To be honest, 1000 taels of silver is really very fair for such a good shop."

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Fourth Master Guan, for letting go. I thank you on behalf of my wife."

Fourth Master Guan waved his hands again and again, and said politely: "Hey, Young Master Zhu can't do this. It goes without saying to thank you. It's my luck to meet someone in Guan, and besides, Mrs. Zhu is smart. Virtuous, generous and decent, she is a capable woman at first glance, I will feel more at ease when I entrust the shop to you."

Every brick and tile of this Shuangxi Inn can be regarded as his painstaking effort, if he handed it over to others casually, he would really feel uneasy.Although I can't keep it all the time, I don't want to let those rich and vulgar people ruin the place for nothing.

Zhu Jintang listened to the words of praise from Fourth Master Guan, with a calm expression and a lukewarm voice. "Thank you, Fourth Master Guan, for your beauty as an adult. Has your departure date been fixed?"

"The sixth day of next month has already been set." Fourth Master Guan replied: "Dezhou is a blessed land. I, Guan, have been here for more than ten years, and now I am leaving like this. I am really sad in my heart."

After all, he is much older than Zhu Jintang, and if we talk about his age, he can be regarded as his uncle's generation.As an elder, it is not good to be too negligent.

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang murmured slightly: "Since that's the case, why not let me be the host the day after tomorrow? Please invite Fourth Master Guan to gather in Huanxilou for a while, and consider it as a practice for you in advance."

Fourth Master Guan was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly said politely: "How can this be done? It's not good for Young Master Zhu to spend money on you."

Zhu Jintang said lightly: "It's just a table of food and a glass of wine. I hope Fourth Master Guan will not dislike it."

Fourth Master Guan immediately smiled and agreed: "Okay, Young Master Zhu is so forthright, so I will not procrastinate someone in Guan. The day after tomorrow, we will not go home until we are drunk."

In the evening, Zhu Jintang returned to the house with his afterglow and the deed of the house.

Shen Yuechen sat alone at the table, resting his chin on one hand, with a few thoughts in his eyes, he looked thoughtfully at the square vase with crabapple flowers on the table beside him, the flowers were in full bloom, delicate and charming.

The two maidservants standing behind Shen Yuechen raised their steps to greet each other first, one was Chun Ming and the other was Cui Xin, they came to Zhu Jintang with a smile, and saluted, "Greetings, sir."

Shen Yuechen recovered immediately, stood up and smiled, "Master came back early today."

Zhu Jintang saw that she was slightly lost in thought, and asked, "What were you thinking just now?"

Shen Yuechen smiled and said, "It's just that I'm idle and just in a daze."

Seeing her coming to meet her, Zhu Jintang looked at him with a smile, as if waiting for something, put one hand into his bosom, and slowly put the house deed and title deed in the envelope into her palm, and said softly Said: "It's all yours."

Seeing this, Shen Yuechen trembled slightly with her bare hands, and then a face as delicate as a begonia flower was full of joy.

There was a soft light in Zhu Jintang's eyes, and he sighed slightly in his heart, after spending so much time and effort, all he did was to have such a happy smile on her face.

He stood there, looking at her dotingly, without making a sound.However, Shen Yuechen couldn't control the joy in his heart, stepped forward two steps, stood on tiptoe, put his arms around Zhu Jintang's generous shoulders, and smiled softly: "Thank you, sir."

Zhu Jintang was slightly taken aback by her sudden embrace.She seemed to be really happy, with a soft body and a quiet fragrance, which was even more fascinating than that of crabapple flowers.

Seeing this, Chun Ming and Cui Xin couldn't help smiling, and hurriedly lowered their heads, looking at them from the corner of their eyes, but they didn't dare to look blatantly, and they didn't dare to withdraw without authorization.

Zhu Jintang usually doesn't care about the presence of other people, but Shen Yuechen always feels embarrassed, and never gets too close to him in front of people.

At this moment, Shen Yuechen just wanted to hug Zhu Jintang tightly, and thank him well, as for other things, he just couldn't care about it for the time being.

However, Zhu Jintang was really much taller than her, and it didn't take long for her to stand on tiptoe and hook his body like this.

Shen Yuechen let go of his hand slowly, raised his head and smiled sweetly at Zhu Jintang: "Master has helped me so much, I must thank you very much."

Zhu Jintang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Really? Then how are you going to thank me?"

Shen Yuechen rolled his eyes, thought for a while and said, "How about I cook myself?"

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang smiled dumbly. This was far from what he expected in his heart.

He nodded the tip of her nose and said, "In terms of cooking skills, Mama Wu is better."

Shen Yuechen's face turned red slightly, and she said: "Okay then, I'll let Mama Wu prepare a table of food and wine right now."

Right now, Mama Wu was thinking about the menu in the kitchen, and when she heard Shen Yuechen's order, she immediately began to prepare.

The cooks in the kitchen have improved their cooking skills by leaps and bounds since they worked with Mama Wu, and now they have their own strengths when it comes to cooking dishes.

About half an hour later, Shen Yuechen took Zhu Jintang to the outside room to take a seat, and when he looked up, he saw a table of exquisite wine and dishes.

Seeing this, Zhu Jintang couldn't help silently applauding.

Shen Yuechen was naturally very satisfied, and told Chun Ming, "Tell the people in the kitchen that you have worked hard today, and let them make some hot dishes for themselves, so that they can have a good time."

Chunming smiled and agreed, and was about to turn around, but Shen Yuechen said again: "You guys go over and have fun together, as long as I am here to serve the uncle."

Chun Ming hurriedly responded again, and led Cui Xin happily away.

After everyone had left, Shen Yuechen got up slowly, picked up the jug with both hands, and wanted to pour wine for Zhu Jintang.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Jintang took down the flagon from her hand again, and said in a calm tone, "I'll do it myself, just sit down."

Shen Yuechen refused: "Grandpa has worked a lot for me recently, I have to thank you well. This first glass of wine, I must personally respect you."

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang had no choice but to hand over the jug to her again, and asked with concern, "Can you drink now with your body?"

Shen Yuechen smiled slightly: "The concubine can't drink, so I can replace wine with tea."

While talking, she filled Zhu Jintang's wine glass, and then picked up the teacup as a gesture of invitation.

Zhu Jintang raised his neck and drank it all in one gulp.

Shen Yuechen clapped his hands and said: "Okay, this is just one cup, uncle eat more vegetables."

Zhu Jintang tasted the wine and said: "Sweet wine."

Shen Yuechen said with a smile, "This is wine made by Wu Mama herself."

Zhu Jintang nodded and said: "It tastes good, the aroma of the wine is very strong, and the taste is mild."

Shen Yuechen couldn't help being a little curious when he heard the words: "I tasted the wine made by Wu Ma once when I was a child, but I can't remember it now."

"Why do you want to try it?"

Shen Yuechen nodded slightly, not because he was greedy, but because he was a little curious.

Zhu Jintang smiled indifferently, only filled his glass, and said, "Then try it. If you only have one glass, it's fine."

Zhu Jintang remembered very clearly that Shen Yuechen seemed to have only been drunk in front of him once, only that one time.

At that time, they hadn't been married for long, and although they were close to each other, they were unfamiliar and reserved.

Shen Yuechen asked him for something about his servant, but he didn't know how to say it, he hesitated for a long time, and finally got drunk.

To be honest, Zhu Jintang really likes to see her drunk, her face is flushed, and she becomes more courageous, saying those witty things that she usually dare not say, which is very cute.

Shen Yuechen hesitated for a moment, but finally, like a child, he dipped some liqueur in the wine cup with his fingertips, carefully put it into his mouth, and tasted it.

Sure enough, it is very sweet, with bitterness in the sweetness, and the aroma of plums in the bitterness.

Shen Yuechen pursed her lips slightly and smiled sweetly.

Seeing that she had tasted it, Zhu Jintang drank the glass of wine again.

Seeing this, Shen Yuechen hurriedly said something to stop him: "Master, don't be greedy."

Zhu Jintang said lightly: "This kind of wine is not intoxicating."

Shen Yuechen picked a piece of fish for him and put it in the bowl, "Master, don't underestimate the wine made by Wu Ma, it has great stamina. Try this fish, it looks very white and tender."

Seeing that she cared about him, Zhu Jintang also put down his glass, and tasted the food and wine on the table with her.
