Chapter 40: The Little Two Who Complained
Chi Wan was relieved when she heard this, it seemed that Zou Qi was still watching her here, and it was really thanks to him tonight.
Seeing that she was silent, Xie Yutang frowned: "What are you going to do now?" β
Chi Wan turned her head sideways and looked at Xie Yutang quietly, seeing the worry in his eyes.
It was the first man she had ever looked at her like that.
Even Mu Zhufeng is just for his so-called 'wife', but he never cares about her feelings.
It's ironic that a man who always says that she won't marry doesn't care about her life or death.
"Tomorrow, the eldest lady will give me a shop, according to her temperament, it must not be a good shop."
Xie Yutang heard it: "Do you know how to do business?" β
"What's so hard about that?" Chi Wan smiled.
Such a smile made Xie Yutang stunned.
She seems to be smiling at him for the first time, right?
It's all mockery, or detached laughter.
But today, she laughs from the bottom of her heart.
It seems that today's events are not without any gain, at least she has gained a smile.
"It's getting late, so go back early. I'm going to meet that lady tomorrow. "Chi Wan was really tired, she made Kong Ming Lantern for a day, and talked to Chi Fangrui and the eldest lady.
It's really physically demanding.
Xie Yutang could see that her face was tired, but she didn't talk nonsense, and said, "Rest early, and when I have time, I will come to see you again." β
As he spoke, he climbed out of the window and disappeared in place.
But for her safety, she still has to protect it well, this time it fails, it is hard to guarantee that she will not come again, if Zou Qi is not around, Chi Wan will be in danger.
He'll have to send more men when he gets back.
Chi Wan really didn't dare to compliment light work, it was really much more convenient, if it was in modern times, it could save a lot of fuel money.
In the morning, Ji Wan washed up and went to the lobby, and when she entered, she was just in time for dinner.
Everyone sat there, no one moved their chopsticks, and they all waited for Chi Fangrui's arrival.
When the eldest lady saw Chi Wan's figure, she instantly became hateful.
Last night, she asked someone to cancel all the operations, but no one was found, and all she saw were corpses.
He was killed.
Who else could this person have besides Chi Wan.
She really underestimated her, and she was able to kill everyone quietly, there must be someone behind her.
Chi Xia also knew about last night's incident, but she didn't know why her mother had failed.
There are also many people, and it is not convenient to speak.
Chi Mei and the second aunt don't care, of course, they don't have any good feelings for Chi Wan, originally the lord was going to stay with her at night, but it turned out to be going to the eldest lady, and she saw a set of jewelry very early and waited for the lord to buy it for her.
It turned out to be a vain wait.
Chi Ai and Chi Xin both put Kong Ming lanterns last night, and the third aunt was relieved to see that their sisters were also very harmonious.
"Wan'er is here, let's sit down and eat." When Chi Fangrui came out, he found Chi Wan.
Ji Wan stood up and saluted.
"Father, mother."
Chi Xia couldn't help but sneer: "Second sister is really getting more and more aware of the rules, and she also knows how to salute." β
Ji Wan sat there and looked sideways at her, but didn't say anything.
Today she is here to ask for a store, not to quarrel.
Turning his head to the eldest lady, he said, "Mother, Wan'er came here today to get the account book and key of the store." β
"I've got it for you, so let's bring it to the butler." The eldest lady's tone was very unwilling, but she didn't dare to make too much movement because the master was here.
The housekeeper was very afraid of this second lady, and he didn't dare to be a little lazy, so he handed over the things directly.
Chi Wan picked up the key, took the account book and put it aside.
Chi Xia asked, "Father, what's going on?" Is the second sister going to manage the store? β
Everyone also looked at Chi Fangrui with a puzzled expression.
Chi Fangrui nodded and said sharply: "From today on, Wan'er will have to experience the management of the store, and in the future, she will marry into the General's Mansion and be in charge of family affairs, so she can't do nothing and lose the face of Shangshu Mansion." β
Chi Fangrui's words were very obvious, making those who had crooked thoughts all shut up.
The second aunt is not a fool, so she can naturally hear the meaning of Chi Fangrui's words, even if she is unwilling, she can only admit it.
Chi Mei was also very unwilling, why could she, and her original proposal was directly rejected.
Now it's actually given to a new countryman.
I was really angry with her.
Ji Wan was in no mood to pay attention to these people's thoughts, and after breakfast, she took her things and went to the store with Xiuxiu to have a look.
Xiuxiu and Chi Wan have rarely come out since they entered this Shangshu Mansion, except for the last time they went to the palace, they almost didn't have the opportunity to go out.
Xiuxiu looked at the lively people on the street is very novel, looking east and west, it is not the same as the market in the countryside.
Chi Wan's mood also improved inexplicably, always staying in one place, how it was like being imprisoned.
"Miss, do you know where the store is?" Xiuxiu is really unfamiliar with this.
Chi Wan nodded, the address is clearly written on it, it should be able to be found, although the place is very large, but compared with modern high-rise buildings, it is still far behind, the highest floor here is three floors, and it is not very high.
It shouldn't be difficult to find a store.
The two of them walked east and west, and they quickly arrived at the place.
"This is it." Ji Wan looked at the shop in front of her.
Xiuxiu was stunned for a long time, and said, "Miss, is this really a store in Shangshu Mansion?" β
"You can't go wrong." Although Ji Wan didn't want to admit it, it really was.
This faΓ§ade looks old, and the door will fall down at any time, so it doesn't look like a shop.
"Let's go inside." Ji Wan saw that it was almost there, and then walked in.
The first step in buying the door was to see the furnishings in the house, there were a few styles except for the fabric, and there was nothing else, Chi Wan frowned, looked around with clear eyes, and did not speak.
Xiao Er saw someone coming, walked over, and yawned, without any intention of entertaining.
"Miss, what material do you like, just look at it."
Chi Wan looked at this little er, and treated the guests so rudely, no wonder the business of the store was so depressed.
Xiuxiu was dissatisfied, and just wanted to speak but was stopped by Ji Wan.
"Xiao Er, what good fabrics can I introduce." Chi Wan's tone was soft, and at first glance, it was everyone's beautiful temperament.
Apparently he didn't care about his rudeness.
"Won't you read it yourself? It's all on that side, and you can touch what you want. Xiao Er said impatiently, every time someone came, he had such an expression, and as a result, he didn't waste his enthusiasm if he didn't buy it.
Xiuxiu was angry and was about to theorize.
"You ......"
Ji Wan stopped her and motioned for her not to speak.
Although Xiuxiu was angry, she obediently shut up.
"Little Er, why do you always look listless? Is it that the shopkeeper doesn't give moon silver? Ji Wan walked up to him and sat down on a chair on the side.
The table was still covered with a touch of dust.
Apparently it hasn't been taken care of for a long time.
When Xiao Er heard this, his eyes were instantly filled with anger, and he said viciously: "But isn't it, the moon silver is just a little bit in total, and it is always deducted from the east and west, and I have done it in vain this month, you said that this business is not good, and it is always deducted silver, and if it goes on like this, I will change stores." β
"How do you say that? It's not Xiao Er's fault that the business is not good, it's the improper discipline in the store, how can I blame you? Ji Wan pretended to be sad.
It seems that it is really his misfortune to be the shopkeeper like this.
"Isn't it, don't you know that our shopkeeper is a distant relative of the eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion, at the beginning, he also bullied the original shopkeeper who did a good job, this he came, but he didn't expect it, but it was an arrogant and domineering person, the second child here was originally three people, and those two people left, leaving me alone, and always looking for trouble with me. Ay...... It's not easy to make money in this world. β
Xiao Er is like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, saying everything.
It seems that he was bullied by this shopkeeper.
Finally, there is someone who understands him, so naturally he has to complain well, and they are just guests anyway.
Ji Wan and Xiuxiu glanced at each other.
I know it.
"Xiao Er, since it's so difficult to do, why don't you leave, wouldn't it be better to change one?" Ji Wan asked curiously.
Xiao Er shook his head: "I want to too, but look at it, who is still recruiting people in these stores now, not to mention that the tailor here is also Yueyue leading Yueyin, and he can do whatever he wants." That's why I know it's like this. β
The more Ji Wan listened, the more angry she became.
How can you make money by managing a store like this?
"Where is your shopkeeper?" Ji Wan asked.
"Of course it's in there, I said, what are you going to do?" Xiao Er saw her stand up straight, and her face suddenly became ugly.
"It doesn't matter who I am, hurry up and call your shopkeeper out." Chi Wan's tone was a little colder.
Xiao Er saw it but didn't care, what kind of person he hadn't seen before, he would be frightened by a woman, it was really a joke, he rolled up his sleeves as if he was going to fight.
"I want to see our shopkeeper's complaint, you are not welcome here, hurry up." Xiao Er is worried that some words will fall into the ears of the shopkeeper, let alone change jobs at that time, the jobs here will not be guaranteed.
"I'm the new shopkeeper, from today onwards, I'll take over this shop, go and call her out." Ji Wan said in a deep voice, not caring at all about his rudeness just now.
Either way, it's time for the people here to clean up.
Xiao Er was shocked by her words, and went to hand over to the shopkeeper without saying a word, whether it was true or not, there was something to be done by the shopkeeper.
When the shopkeeper came out, he noticed Chi Wan, Xiao Er had just said her words, and couldn't help but sneer: "This young lady, you don't look in the mirror when you lie, is this a place for you to go wild?" I'm the shopkeeper here, who dares to change me. β
