“……”

Ye Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, not hearing clearly what he was asking.

"Xiaoyu, it's only been a year, you won't hide that I'm married, right?"

Lu Tiangui asked funny.

"What?!"

Finally hearing what the other party said, Ye Xiaoyu was startled.

"What nonsense, he's just a friend I met here."

Ye Xiaoyu pursed her lips and glanced over there.

"Oh-friend?"

Lu Tiangui looked incredulous.

"Don't talk nonsense, he doesn't know I'm a woman yet."

Regarding this point, Ye Xiaoyu felt that it was necessary to emphasize it again.

"Huh? No, Xiaoyu, do you really plan to be treated as a man for the rest of your life? ”

Lu Tiangui couldn't believe it.

Although he also agrees that men's clothing is indeed more convenient to move, Ye Xiaoyu is a woman after all, so she can't really not marry for the rest of her life, right?

"Okay, okay, are you here today to talk to me about this?"

Ye Xiaoyu didn't want to continue the topic.

"Well, of course not, I'm here to congratulate you."

"That's pretty much it."

Seeing Lu Tiangui's helpless look, Ye Xiaoyu couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

"Xiaoyu, the guest over there was just asking how the milk tea in the shop is made?"

Wang Huaiqing walked over.

"Huh? Who is this? ”

He also saw Lu Tiangui who was chatting with Ye Xiaoyu.

It was the first time he had seen this man.

"My surname is Lu, and I am a friend of Xiaoyu."

Lu Tiangui introduced himself first.

"Oh. Fortunately, my surname is Wang, and my name is Huaiqing. Just call me Huaiqing. ”

Wang Huaiqing laughed.

"Then, Xiaoyu, I'll go first."

Lu Tiangui pointed to the next door and said to Ye Xiaoyu.

Although he is the shopkeeper, he can't leave for too long.

"Well, I'll treat you to dinner another day."

Ye Xiaoyu smiled and sent Lu Tiangui to the door. But as soon as she went out, she saw the little official standing on the side of the road, she hadn't seen her for so long. The man still looked at her with resentment. This really confused Ye Xiaoyu. But they're all inconsequential people anyway. She didn't bother to think about it.

In the back garden of Zou Mansion, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. Tian Yuyan sat in the small pavilion in the center of the garden, with a cradle in front of him, and was teasing Xiaobao with a loving face.

"Sister ......"

Suddenly, there was a voice from the garden behind me.

Tian Yuyun turned his head. saw her eldest brother Tian Caifu hurriedly walking towards her.

"Why are you here?"

Tian Caifu walked quickly. After a while, I was inside the gazebo.

"Girl. I've got something to look for you. ”

Seeing that Tian Yuyun was not very welcoming to himself, Tian Caifu directly spread out his words.

"It's not good to come here in broad daylight, if someone else sees it."

There is a huge difference between the family backgrounds of the Tian family and the Zou family. She didn't want people to see her mother's family appear in the Zou Mansion at all.

"Little sister, you know me, if it weren't for the matter, where would I come here to find you......"

Tian Caifu wiped the sweat from his forehead and sat on the stone bench opposite Tian Yuyun.

"What the hell is going on?"

Xiaobao was already asleep, and in order not to wake up her son, she tried to keep her words as soft as possible.

"Hey, it's not a big deal, it's just that our family used to do a small business, and now it's suddenly in a recession, and we owe others 300 taels of silver."

Tian Caifu tried his best to state this matter in a relaxed tone.

But everyone knows that it is not easy to owe someone three hundred taels.

"Three hundred taels?"

Tian Yuyan raised his voice in surprise, realizing that Xiaobao was still sleeping, and then lowered it.

"What kind of business do you have, and you can lose three hundred taels?"

The Tian family has always lived on the rent of old books and shops, and she really didn't know that her brother was doing other business.

"It's just some business, partnering with others, at the beginning it was very profitable, and then suddenly it didn't work, but I didn't believe in evil, so I invested the money in it, and then it became like this."

Tian Caifu rubbed his hands, his expression a little hurried.

"Girl, look ......"

"Where did I get all this money?"

Tian Yuyun frowned.

Although her status in the Zou family has skyrocketed because she gave birth to a son, the family's finances are still not under her control, and the expenses for eating and drinking are recorded in the Zou family's accounts, and she has no money at all except for a little monthly salary per month.

"Sister, don't be like this, how come your Zou family has no money? It's not much, it's just three hundred taels......"

Tian Caifu looked sad.

"Three hundred taels is not much? Did you go to the casino again and owe the money? Don't lie to me with the excuse of doing business, I don't know you yet! ”

Tian Yuyun looked at the person opposite and said directly.

Her family is full of gamblers, otherwise she would not have let herself marry Zou Yu in the first place. Although it turns out that this marriage is good, Tian Yuyan still has this stalk in his heart.

"Girl ......"

was told the truth, Tian Caifu smiled shyly.

"I don't have any money!"

Tian Yuyan turned his head angrily and didn't look at him.

"Sister, you can't see death like this and not save it, those people from the underground money bank are in our house now, if I still can't get three hundred taels by tomorrow, they will break our father's legs, sister, it's all my fault, but your father and mother are also yours, you can't see death like this and not save it......"

Tian Caifu was a little anxious.

"What can I do? I don't really have any money. ”

Tian Yuyan was said to be a little soft-hearted.

"You have been married into the Zou family for so long, and you have been an official wife for so long, you must have met some people, so you borrowed from them...... Sister, our father's life is all in your hands......"

Tian Caifu was about to cry.

"Isn't it thanks to you that my father and mother will be like this?"

Tian Yuyun raised his eyes and glared at Tian Caifu.

"Yes, yes...... It's all my fault. I also know that I am wrong, and when this time is over, I promise you that I will change my mind......"

"Second lady, eldest lady has ...... please"

Rika said from under the steps of the gazebo.

She is Wu's personal maid and has been by her side since she was a child. So as soon as Tian Yuyun saw Lixiang and thought that Tian Caifu was still beside him, he subconsciously remained vigilant.

"Alright, you can go back first. Don't worry, I'm fine here. ”

glanced meaningfully at Tian Caifu, who was frozen there. Tian Yuyun said.

"Okay. Girl, then I'll go back first. ”

As if assured, Tian Caifu walked down the steps of the gazebo with satisfaction, as he passed by Lixiang's side. There was also a pause. Turning his head to glance.

"Xiaobao. Let's go back to the house and go to bed. ”

Tian Yuyun turned around and hugged Xiaobao in the cradle in his arms.

"Lixiang, please go and report to Mrs. first, and say that I will carry Xiaobao back to the house. Coming right away. ”

"Yes, Second Madam."

Rika didn't say much, answered, and turned to leave.

Tian Yuyan in the pavilion sighed heavily. Three hundred taels? Where is she going to raise money?

"Xiaoyu, if the business is so good every day, it won't be long before you can open a third shop."

Looking at the empty counters and wooden shelves, Wang Huaiqing smiled.

He stayed in the shop for a day today, and the customers who came to buy pastries have not stopped, so it is only evening now, and all kinds of cakes in the shop have been purchased.

"Less coming, today is the first day of opening, and it is normal for there to be a lot of people, so it can't be counted."

Ye Xiaoyu said with a smile while helping the guy clean up the shop.

"So happy, let's go out for dinner in the evening."

Walking over and installing the wooden door of the shop with his buddies, Wang Huaiqing turned his head and said to Ye Xiaoyu.

Perhaps because Lin has been addicted to mahjong recently, he has become less and less concerned about his daily travel and home time, which makes him feel relaxed.

"That's natural, you already said this morning, even if the business of the shop is not good today, you still can't escape this meal."

Put the broom at the door, Ye Xiaoyu said.

earned more than a dozen taels in a single day, and even she was shocked.

"Let's go, let's go, I know there is a very elegant restaurant on East Street, and the environment is good, have you cleaned it up? Let's go now, there will be no place when it's late......"

After tidying up the shop, the guy went home. Wang Huaiqing stood in front of the shop, looking at Ye Xiaoyu, who was still grinding inside, and pretended to urge impatiently.

"Let's go."

The temperature difference between day and night in Rongzhou is large, and Ye Xiaoyu put on another jacket over the short shirt.

"Prince Wang?"

I didn't take two steps when a girl's voice came from behind me.

The two of them turned their heads to see a young girl in plain clothes standing there, her face flushed red because she was excited or in a hurry.

Ye Xiaoyu recognized her, this little girl is called Xiaoyu, she is Tian Yuyu's personal maid, when Ye Xiaoyu first went to Zou's house to deliver pastries, she always looked unpleasant to herself, and it took a long time before she gradually changed, but the so-called change just didn't pay attention to Ye Xiaoyu.

Tian Yuyun's personal maid came to find Wang Huaiqing, and Ye Xiaoyu couldn't help but pause in her heart.

"Xiaoyu?"

Wang Huaiqing was also a little surprised at this time, this Xiaoyu was Tian Yuyan's dowry maid, and she had seen it very often before, but after Tian Yuyan married into the Zou family, the two basically had no contact, and they never saw each other again.

"Childe, our young lady is looking for you."

Xiao Yu glanced at Ye Xiaoyu, and a look of disdain flashed on her face.

Nima, this is on the street, what the hell is getting in your way?

Ye Xiaoyu scolded in her heart.

"Rain looking for me?"

This time, Wang Huaiqing was even more confused by the second monk.

"Well, it's a very urgent matter, Childe, hurry up and take a look."

The expressions on Xiao Yu's face were all pinched together.

"This ......"

Wang Huaiqing looked back at Ye Xiaoyu.

He had already agreed to have dinner with Ye Xiaoyu, it didn't seem good if he left like this, but Tian Yuyun had never called someone to find him, maybe there was really something urgent......

For a while, Wang Huaiqing was entangled in his heart, and Wang Huaiqing just looked at Ye Xiaoyu in a daze. (To be continued......)
