Chapter 176: I'm finally back~!
Zeng Shiyun glanced at the girl and stopped looking, put a bowl of hot porridge in front of Shu Wanqing's table, and complained: "You work so hard~, who can see it~, your body is about to collapse~, is it worth it~?" ”
Shu Wanqing smiled and said, "How can it be as serious as you said~, it's just that there are more things these days~, just get through it~." ”
"What to boil~, hurry up and finish this bowl of porridge~, hurry up and go to sleep~." Zeng Shiyun put away the paper on the table, paused, and said: "I was just in the theater~, and I heard a few county officials chatting ~, and Shen Zhutou sent a letter from Kyoto~. ”
Shen Zhutou is naturally Shen Gangfu, under Chu Yun's special advice, he helped the theater a lot, including Zeng Shiyun's fame, which attracted the covetousness of several sons and brothers with a shallow background, and he also helped to settle the situation, although the two girls did not have any communication with him, they were also the people they were most familiar with in the county government.
About two months ago, Qingjiang County Liu County Commander was transferred to the capital, I heard that he was promoted, and it was a very sensational thing in Sujiang Mansion, even they had heard of it, and Shen Zhutou also followed the county commander away, fortunately, those catchers in the county government have been taking care of the theater a lot, not only solving several batches of picking quarrels and provoking troubles, but also taking the theater as the focus of patrols on weekdays.
However, Shu Wanqing still doesn't quite understand, what does Shen Zhutou's letter from Kyoto have to do with them~?
"Shen Zhutou mentioned that person in the letter~, do you want to listen~?"
When talking about "that person", Zeng Shiyun's tone had a faint anger in it.
As the biggest beneficiary of the theater, he walked away by himself, leaving all these chores to a weak woman, with the continuous expansion of the theater, Zeng Shiyun was able to see how hard Shu Wanqing had been in the past few months, and the whole person was a lot haggard, and his heart was naturally full of resentment towards Chu Yun.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there are other reasons for these resentments.
Perhaps since the absence of a few months ago, this resentment has begun to accumulate, and it has only now reached its peak.
Since she was busy last night, Shu Wanqing was actually a little hungry, drinking porridge in small sips, and the expression on her face moved when she heard it, but she didn't speak, waiting for her next.
"He was knighted~, and now he is doing well in Kyoto~, I'm afraid he won't come back~, what's the use of you doing this~?" Even Zeng Shiyun didn't realize that when she said this, her tone became different from usual~.
Xiao Tong got dressed, looked at the two people in the room, stuck out his tongue, and quietly retreated.
Shu Wanqing put down the spoon and said after a while: "People always have to have something to do, it's not these, it's those, doing these things can make more people have something to eat, and I like it too~." ”
Zeng Shiyun asked a little angrily: "Do you believe these words yourself~?" ”
"What about you~?" Shu Wanqing raised her head, looked at her and asked seriously.
Inside the room, the atmosphere began to fall silent for a long time.
"What's the matter with me~, hum~!" After a long time, Zeng Shiyun said angrily, turned her head and walked out.
Shu Wanqing smiled helplessly, walked to the side of the bed and lay down, slept with her clothes, and the moment she touched the pillow, sleepiness swept over.

"The next game is about to start~, let them control the time~."
"How is the script rehearsal of "A Chinese Ghost Story"~, Ah Fu, you go and keep an eye on it~, don't let them be lazy~."
"The martial arts master ranking can't be delayed~, a few rings need timely feedback ...... news."
"I know~, this matter~, I'll ask Miss Shu later~."

In a newly built theater, Old Man Sun took a sip of tea, only to feel that his throat that was about to smoke was much better.
In the entire Sujiang Mansion, there are now more than 20 theaters scattered all over the place, and the complexity of daily affairs makes him have no time to tell stories for a long time, especially these theaters that have just been built and are still in the initial stage, let alone leave him.
At this moment, he finally understood what the county lieutenant of Chu said to him when he left Sujiang Mansion, he thought that he was conservative enough, but he didn't expect that he didn't underestimate the market, but overestimated his energy .......
Sure enough, as more and more theaters are added, many problems have also emerged, if it weren't for Miss Wanqing helping him share most of the affairs, he would have to explain this old bone, I'm afraid he would have to explain it here.
However, these many miscellaneous matters are only part of Old Man Sun's worries.
Although the theater is constantly developing, the popularity of the "Liao Zhai" series and "The Legend of the White Snake" is gradually decreasing, although under the teaching of Chu County Lieutenant, the things that extend around the martial arts master ranking have been able to keep the theater open for a long time, but once he loses a good script, some of the ideas in his heart can only go so far.
In addition, there are more difficult problems, which are gradually pressing.
After the Chu county order left Sujiang Mansion, Shen Gangfu also left, they lost their biggest support, the new county commander, a few days ago, finally saw the profits of the hook fence, after hinting that he was pretending to be confused and hiding from it several times, in recent days finally began to suppress them to varying degrees, this matter must be solved as soon as possible, decades of experience, so that he knows better than anyone how many means the government can make a hook fence unable to open normally.
Chu Yun didn't know Old Man Sun's worries, he had just arrived at the city gate at this time, sitting outside the carriage, looking at the familiar tall city wall, a sense of intimacy came to his face.
Sujiang Mansion, I'm finally back again~!
Chu Yun's feelings for Sujiang Mansion are naturally not comparable to Kyoto.
Even though Kyoto is more prosperous than here, Kyoto has no green willow village, no incense shop, no hook bar, no theater, and even the name of the green building is not as pleasing as the name of the Qunyuyuan sounds.
After two months of running, he had enough fun, but he was also tired enough, Chu Yun now just wanted to hurry back home and lie on that familiar bed for a good night's sleep.
The carriage entered the city gate and went straight all the way, Chu Yun didn't know how many times he walked on this street, in two or three months, even the vendors who set up stalls on the side of the road did not change much, Chu Yun even saw the iron pillars wearing fast clothes swaying on the road, the gate of the incense shop was closed, and the fat shopkeeper of the cloth village next door moved a chair to sit at the door of the store, and continued to sigh for the cold business in the store------ everything was the same as when he left.
The honest rough man left halfway, Chu Yun had to drive by himself, and the carriage finally stopped in front of a large mansion, and there were no adults at the door, and a few half-grown children were playing.
Lao Chen left Kyoto one step ahead of them, and wanted to pick up all the people here, but now two months have passed, and they are afraid that they have already arrived in Kyoto, and this place does not look like it is uninhabited, I don't know why.
Seeing Chu Yun and them get out of the car, several children immediately stopped playing and hid behind the gate, and when they saw them walking inside, they immediately scattered and ran deeper into the courtyard.
As soon as the four of them stepped into the house, a figure happened to come out of it, and the pretty girl named Mu Yuhan looked slightly stunned, and then said in surprise: "Master~, Uncle~, you are back~!" ”
------
------
The room and yard were cleaned every day, even cleaner and tidier than when Chu Yun left, and she learned from Mu Yuhan's mouth that after Lao Chen and all of them left, the task of looking at the house was handed over to her and these children.
These orphans no longer have to beg for a living, they are honest and do some simple work in the theater, and the rest are not idle, and the older children, every day, lead their younger brothers and sisters to go out to sell rock sugar gourds, and the money they earn to feed them all has a surplus.
"Uncle Shi~, after you leave~, the theater's Sun Lao and the steward of the Yue Wangfu will send some silver every half month, all here~." Mu Yuhan asked a few boys to move a few boxes out of the room and explained.
It is not surprising that the Yue Wangfu will send money over every once in a while Chu Yun is not surprised, another amount of money, Chu Yun remembers that when he left, he let them all use it to run the theater, and the only one who has the power to decide where this money belongs is Shu Wanqing.
However, when I came, I heard the rough man say that Old Man Sun and their theaters have been opened all over Sujiang Mansion, and it seems that the theater has brought more profits than he imagined, and there can be so much surplus on the premise of ensuring continued expansion.
He doesn't need so much silver for the time being, if there is no accident, the perfume business that he cooperated with Li Xuan, Li Yu, and Her Royal Highness the princess in the capital should be doing well now, and the silver will only go home in a big way in the future, and no matter how much it is, it will not be of much use.
I thought it would be better to clean up when I came back, but I didn't expect that there would be such a diligent nephew, Chu Yun could lie down and sleep when he returned to the room, in the past two months, under the guidance of the map of the pit people, it was not every day that he could meet the inn, sometimes he could only sleep in the wild, and then Chu Yun simply made a few simple tents, but how could the tent be as comfortable as the bed~?
Even the quilt had just been sunburned, and he didn't even bother to take off his clothes, shoes and socks, so he lay down directly.
After two months of turbulence and displacement, there were few such comfortable moments, and after a while, he fell into a deep sleep.
When he opened his eyes again, the tiredness of the days was gone, and he came out of the room to find that it was already a little dark.
Mu Yuhan practiced swords alone in the courtyard, although Yan Chuchu still did not officially recognize her as an apprentice, but before that, he would instruct her from time to time to make two moves, although the two of them did not have the name of master and apprentice, but they already had the reality of master and apprentice.
So Chu Yun picked up a cheap nephew for nothing.
Although his uncle's ability may probably be that ------ Okay, Chu Yun admitted that he really couldn't beat Mu Yuhan, but who let him have a powerful sister-in-law~?
For Mu Yuhan, Chu Yun still had some appreciation and even admiration in his heart.
Among the people he knows, if she is the second in terms of perseverance and diligence, no one can be called the first.
In the days when Yan Chuchu had not agreed to accept her as an apprentice, she came here to clean every morning, and left in the evening, and insisted for a long time, as soon as she had free time, she saw her practicing swords outside, and the frequency was not only far more than Chu Yun herself, but even Yan Chuchu was not as good as her.
Perhaps this is also one of the reasons why Yan Chuchu changed his original intention.
Seeing Chu Yun coming out of the room, Mu Yuhan hurriedly stopped and said, "Master and Uncle have returned to Cuiliu Village, let me wait for you to wake up and tell you~." ”
Chu Yun nodded, indicating that he understood.
Cuiliuzhai is the place where they grew up with incense, of course they want to go to see this time, even the little girl Yu'er has mentioned countless times along the way, and the chance to come back in the future is afraid that there are not so many, on the way they said okay, this time they want to go back to the village to live for a few days.
Cuiliuzhai carries too much for them, this is the childhood memories of the three sisters, Chu Yun does not plan to join in this fun.
After sleeping for a long time, he was a little hungry, and he was going to go out and find something to eat.
This section of the road from the house to the Xiangchen Fang, he used to walk habitually, and now it is no exception, the Xiangchen Fang did not open the door, and Chu Yun did not plan to cook by himself, entered from the entrance of the tile market next to him, walked to the door of a certain courtyard, and found that the gate was actually just hidden, Chu Yun gently pushed the door in, and there was a faint light in the inner room, he originally planned to walk in, but suddenly seemed to smell something, sniffled, and the next moment, his face immediately showed a surprised expression.
Instead of going straight, he turned around and entered a small room next to him, only to find that this was the kitchen, and it was darker at this time, and although it was not pitch black, it was difficult to see clearly.
Fortunately, what Chu Yun was looking for was not difficult to find, he followed the taste and opened a food box placed on the table, and the familiar taste that had been lost for a long time immediately became stronger~.
Osmanthus cake, osmanthus cake made by Shu Wanqing herself, Chu Yun will never forget this taste~.
