The young man walked downstairs quietly, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of a familiar figure disappearing from his sight.
Isn’t that the young man suspected of being Gong Cheng’s wife’s brother?
Why did this person leave now?
The young man called a servant to ask what was going on and what was the purpose of Shen Tang's stay in Yuehua Building. Unexpectedly, the servant replied with envy: "You mean that little lady? She came to redeem her husband. She is here.
Lao Chu, who does odd jobs in the kitchen, is so filial."
Hearing this, the young man lowered his eyelids and looked thoughtful.
"Who is Lao Chu you are talking about?"
Since he is the heir of the Shen family, even if Aweng was killed by the guillotine, how could he do odd jobs in the kitchen of Yuehua Building?
There are already many doubts about this person. At this time, he still doesn't forget to hire servants. What is he going to do with an elderly handyman?
The young man's eyes were dim and his thoughts were spinning a million times.
He is very careful and suspicious, so naturally he won't let it go.
"Well... I've only been here for three months, so I don't know much about it. I just know that Lao Chu works in the kitchen and is a weirdo who talks little."
Even if he couldn't answer, the young man wouldn't embarrass him.
"Call your boss."
Outside Yuehua Building.
Mr. Chu held a shabby package in his arms and looked calmly at the deserted street. Shen Tang stood aside and said nothing.
The shopkeeper was willing to give space to the "grandfather and grandson" who had been separated for many years to reminisce about the past. In addition, it was daytime, so even in the crowded Goulanwashe, there should be no danger, so he said goodbye with peace of mind.
Go back and check the store to do business.
After watching the shopkeeper leave, Shen Tang raised her head and glanced at Mr. Chu again, who still had the same expression. She opened her mouth, worried about finding a topic to break the awkward atmosphere, when her own motorcycle trotted forward with the reins in her mouth, her head
Gently push into her arms.
Shen Tang subconsciously took it.
She thought of how to find a topic.
"Mr. Chu, it's still a long way back, why don't you get on... the back of a mule first?" She wanted to say "on the back of a horse," but no matter how tall and beautiful her motorcycle was, it was still a mule, not a horse.
You can't call a mule a horse...
"Mr. Chu?"
Shen Tang called softly again, which was enough to wake up Mr. Chu, who seemed to be in a trance and absent-minded.
He glanced at the motorcycle, which was looking at him.
He then looked at the young man, who was not as tall as his chest and was also the new head of the house. The head of the house was also looking at him.
Being stared at by the man and the mule with the same look, he felt a little bit subtle. The corners of his mouth moved slightly, and he lowered his head and said, "I don't dare."
Shen Tang: "..."
He called him "slave", but his temperament and the look in his eyes were incompatible with this self-proclaimed person. She felt uncomfortable no matter what she heard. So she waved her hand and said: "Mr. Chu, there is no need for this 'slave'. You
It doesn’t matter if you call yourself by your first or last name.”
Mr. Chu was startled when he heard this, but he didn't say anything to refute, he just followed the flow and responded.
"yes."
"Then what is your name? My surname is Shen, my given name is Youli, and I come from a family background..." Exchanging names is one of the signs of getting closer to each other. Shen Tang followed the standard format of self-introduction and paused when he mentioned the ranking -
—
Where do you go to your original home?
Forget it, I can't think of it at the moment, it's not important.
She then made up a number.
"Xing Wu, you can call me Wu Lang."
If you call her Fifth Lady, she won't have any objection.
only--
Such a beautiful girl is often mistaken for a handsome man. There is something wrong with the eyes of the indigenous people in this world.
Mr. Chu said: "Chu, Chu Yao, the word is Wuhui."
"Chu Yao? What a good name. 'The banners and flags are disturbed by the clouds, and the sharp blades are scattered across the forest. Yang Hui spits out fire, and the fields of light cover the lake'. "Yao" means "Yao", "Yao Yu" is brilliant, and the word "Wuhui" means no darkness and no darkness.
, the meaning is very good." Shen Tang habitually gave a wave of business compliments and swallowed back his complaints.
Blessings are good, as are names and words, but unfortunately reality and blessings are often contrary to each other. The person who chose the name hopes that his life will be "bright and brilliant, without darkness or obscurity", but as a result, he was bought to be a kitchen and dishwasher at a young age.
After washing the dishes, it seems that I have been crippled and lost my literary heart.
Alas, it is simply miserable.
She brought up the old story again and pointed to the motorcycle with innocent eyes: "Sir, do you want to ride it? The motorcycle is very good and the ride is not bumpy."
Chu Yao took the reins of the motorcycle from Shen Tang and motioned her to get on the back of the mule with his eyes. After she sat firmly, he said in a low voice: "There is no way the master walks and the servant rides. This is against the rules."
Shen Tang Didigu: "How can there be so many rules..."
She bought Lao Chu back to take over Qi Shan's job of "guiding NPCs". She really had no intention of letting the elderly man take care of her, not to mention that he would also play the role of "half master" in the future.
Chu Yao said: "It's different."
Shen Tang was confused: "What's different?"
Respecting the old and loving the young is the same everywhere.
Chu Yao held the reins in one hand and his old parcel in the other, and walked towards the street. Instead of answering "What's different?", he asked a somewhat strange question.
"How much money did Goro spend to buy it?"
This is asking how much it cost to buy him?
Shen Tang looked hesitant: "Although I should have considered my husband's mood and quoted a higher price, but this was dishonest... The principal originally planned to bid five taels, but he misunderstood the relationship between you and me, thinking that we, grandson and grandson, sympathize with each other.
Then I took the initiative to reduce it by two taels."
But she didn't know that Chu Yao, who was facing away from her, had a strange expression on his face for a moment, which seemed to be doubtful and struggling. It was complicated and incomprehensible, and she didn't respond for a long time. Shen Tang was wondering if he was ignoring people, but
Listen to him murmuring: "So... it's three liang?"
Shen Tang: "..."
Five minus two equals three…
Is this math problem so difficult?
Have you been hesitating for so long?
Be confident, it’s just three or two!
"Yes, three taels, the calculation should be correct..." Shen Tang clapped his fingers, convinced that he had calculated correctly, and then doubted whether he had found the wrong person - he had to hesitate again and again for an arithmetic question of this level.
, Mr. Chu is really as awesome as Qi Shan said?
Or is she the only one praying for good?
So Shen Tang asked a question that he had been holding back for a long time.
"Yuanliang said before that you are talented. A talented person, even if you are in a trough, can always find a way to make your life better. Why doesn't you redeem yourself? Or can't you redeem yourself?"
Although livestock such as pigs, cattle and sheep are sold cheaply, no matter how cheap they are, they still cost money to buy. Many ordinary people cannot afford to eat them. It can be seen that Chu Yao lived in poverty but did not have no income.
After working in the kitchen of Yuehua Building in Xiaocheng for so many years, he never thought about finding a part-time job to earn some small money to redeem himself?
He was educated and capable, and was more popular than ordinary people wherever he went, so Shen Tang was puzzled.
"Before the Xin Kingdom was destroyed, a sinner like me could not redeem myself."
"But the Xin Kingdom has been destroyed."
This rule is naturally invalidated.
Unexpectedly, Chu Yao said something that puzzled her.
"It's not that I don't want to, and it's not that I can't."
"ah?"
In this case, why not take action?
Chu Yao smiled in confusion and helplessness, sighing with a hint of resignation that Shen Tang couldn't figure out, and the next sentence succeeded in making her confused and full of questions.
He said: "I'm waiting for Wulang's three taels of silver."
