Chapter 42: The Shen Family's Caravan
She froze in place, not knowing what to do. Although the family is full of generals who dance knives and guns, it is the first time she has seen such a loud threat and a person who shows off his sword. Although I am not afraid, I am still a little at a loss.
"I'll send it to you right away~ The child is still young, I hope the guest officer doesn't have to mind~" Ling Jiu grimaced and pulled Mimi behind him, completely in a state of protection.
"I'm sorry, it's our first time here, so I don't know how to order it. It's still the shopkeeper's agent, it's just that we go out all the year round, and it is inevitable to act rudely, I hope the son doesn't have to mind~" Qiu Yan smiled, apologized as usual, and drank the big man to put away the knife and go back.
"Shopkeeper, give a cup of everything~" Ling Jiu ordered with a cold face, and took Mimi's little hand to the side to reprimand.
"Stay away from men in the future~" She looks like an innocent little sister who never knows the sufferings of others, let alone their benefits.
Hearing his words, Mimi hurriedly took two steps back, and Ling Jiu's face instantly became a little ugly. "What are you hiding, I won't eat you, but I'm just reasoning with you~"
"You said that you want me to stay away from men~ I listened to you, and I was about to step back, could it be that you are not a man?" Mimi, who was slightly better, covered her mouth and snickered, she knew that Ling Jiu was for her good, but she just couldn't swallow the bad breath that he usually bullied herself, so she would tease her back like this~
Being robbed of a sentence by the little girl, Ling Jiu felt that her stubborn personality was carved out of the same mold as her hateful sister, so she no longer struggled, but just stared at her with her eyes, for fear that she would cause trouble in the past.
Hearing the commotion in front, Tang Qi also rushed over, but when he saw that it was just a caravan coming to drink water, he didn't care. Although there was a beautiful girl, there were also vicious guards around her, so she sat down with a smile and asked for a cup of tea.
The Shen family caravan had just come back from Saiwai, and before they arrived at home, they heard that in this Seven Star City, a new 'honey sweetheart' specializing in honey products had been opened, and the business was booming, so they happened to pass by, so they stopped and came in to taste it~
Qiu Yan saw one of them, and the subordinates took out a delicate small silver cup, poured a little, and served it to her to drink~
Tang Qi raised his head and glanced at it, and said with a smile. "Who should I be in such a big battle, it turned out to be the eldest lady of the Shen family-Shen Qiuyan~ No wonder, this girl is definitely a strange woman."
"Seventh Brother knows about her?"
Tang Qi nodded, "The Shen family is in the tea and silk business, so it is inevitable that they will go to Saiwai every year to do business. But one year, Master Shen had a strange illness and couldn't go outside, and his son was still young and couldn't afford to take responsibility. Miss Shen took the initiative to travel with the caravan for her father. ”
"Wow, so powerful, she's a heroine~" Mimi couldn't help but sigh and worship from the bottom of her heart.
"Yes~" Tang Qi patted the little sister with a fan. "But in three or four years, this Miss Shen has expanded her business to three or four times the original size, and I have to be amazed~ The heroine of the female middle school, she is talking about it~"
Ling Jiu didn't say a word, but he also nodded frequently, silently admiring.
"If only I had the opportunity to go outside the Saiwai, I also want to see the desert, ride a camel, and step on the sand ......~"
The seventh brother ruthlessly interrupted her thoughts, "You, it's better to stay by your father's side, do your filial piety, don't think about going out to make trouble!" There's no one to clean up the mess for you. ”
After being interrupted by two ruthless guys and her dream of seeing Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves shattered, Mimi had to do business honestly and run her small shop.
Before she remembered her lost dream, she was already carried to the room by the eldest mother for torture.
It was after dinner one day, she finished honoring her parents as usual, and was thinking about going back to the house, but the eldest lady passed by her and said coldly, "Mimi, you come to my room~"
She looked at the eldest mother's face, shouted "not good" in her heart, turned her head and looked at the eldest brother again, she was already "unbearable to look at directly", hey~
Silently bowed a handful of bitter tears, I hope it's not a big deal, otherwise the eldest brother will have to clean himself up again~
"Mother, I ......" thought about the wording, hoping to escape, at least not to die too ugly.
"Girl, your seventh brother told my mother everything, and my mother didn't think it was bad. It's just like this, I've wronged one of your daughter's families too much, if there is anything in the future, just tell you directly, so that he can take care of you. As for your father......
The eldest lady paused, "It's better to wait and talk to him, otherwise according to his bullish temper, he will definitely not rely on you to go out to do business~"
"Brother Seventh told you?" Mimi's eyes widened, at this moment, the most important thing is not whether her father will know, but that her seventh brother actually told her aunt~
He's a traitor~ What a shame!
"It's been said, it's all said. How much money can you make from that garden, and do you have enough money to open a small shop? It's better to go to my mother and get some ......" The eldest mother chattered, naturally knowing that her daughter was helping the family, but she was a little reluctant in her heart. But I really know her temper, which is exactly the same as the old man of the Tang family.
If you insist on blocking it, you don't know what moths will come out, so it's better to support yourself, and doing things under your nose will always be less troublesome.
"My seventh brother, what did you tell you?" Hearing the clue, Mimi asked cautiously.
"How else can I say it, of course it's telling the truth~ Since you want to open a store, don't divide some more to supplement the family, you take these back, and ...... them well" said, the eldest mother took out some of the money and handed it over.
"Oh, mother~" Mimi finally shook her head and said no. "My daughter's shop business is pretty good, but you also know that our family has a good past, if you tell your father for a while, he will definitely not be able to stand it, so my mother can help us hide it, at least, don't say it now, okay?"
The eldest lady nodded, "But you are a girl, and it is not easier to do things than men." I'll have to come back early in the evening~"
Although it is said that the explanation is very strict, the eldest lady is from a famous lady. If it weren't for being comfortable with the family, she would definitely be a strange woman who stands alone now.
Since I regret that I don't have the opportunity to do those things again, it is not bad to leave the opportunity to my daughter.
When he went out, he happened to meet the eldest brother, and the eldest brother Tang glanced at the younger sister with sharp eyes. Mimi hurriedly replied with a flattering smile, but fortunately, the eldest brother didn't say anything, she also patted her little heart to appease her, and walked back to the room quickly.
