Chapter 143: Life

Guo Jing walked to the tea shop and saw Meng Shuang in plain clothes in the shop, who was choosing back and forth among the various tea leaves with her head down, and a woman who looked like a maid next to her was also helping to choose.

Guo Jing hurriedly walked over with a smile, hugged her fists and said with a smile: "Miss Meng Shuang came here in person today, if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, I hope to forgive my sins." ”

Hearing the voice, Meng Shuang turned his head, and gradually smiled on his cold face, and said politely: "Boss Guo is serious." ”

After all, Meng Shuang often comes here to buy tea, and she is also familiar with Guo Jing, and in her impression, Guo Jing is also a childless and honest businessman, so she is more polite when she speaks.

"Hehehe." Guo Jing smiled, hurriedly walked to the tea bag placed in front of her, pinched the tea in the bag in front of her, handed it to Meng Shuang, and said with a smile: "Miss Meng Shuang, look at this tea, this is a new product that just arrived a few days ago." ”

Although Meng Shuang had been looking cold, she still looked at the tea handed by Guo Jing, nodded with satisfaction, and then followed Guo Jing's example, stretched out her slender jade finger and pinched a small handful of it under the tip of her nose and sniffed it gently.

"Hmm." Nodding with satisfaction, Meng Shuang turned around and said politely to Guo Jing behind him: "This tea is good, please prepare more for me if you ask Boss Guo to prepare more." ”

"That's easy to say." Seeing that the business came to the door and it was a big customer, Guo Jing nodded hurriedly, and then asked in a blink of an eye, "I don't know how much Miss wants?" ”

"Hmm" Meng Shuang pondered for a moment and said, "Give me two catties first." ”

"Two pounds!" Guo Jing stared at her in disbelief, thinking that she had misheard, after all, Meng Shuang only bought a few taels of tea before, although this new tea is just a fresh, there is no need to buy so much at once.

Meng Shuang ignored Guo Jing's surprise, just smiled politely and said, "There are guests coming to the house these days, so I plan to prepare more." ”

"I see." Guo Jing nodded abruptly this time, and then instructed Zhang An behind him: "Go and weigh two catties of tea for Miss Meng Shuang!" ”

"Oops." Zhang An knew that this was big business, so he hurriedly smiled and went to weigh the tea.

Meng Shuang nodded with satisfaction, and then said in a blink of an eye: "When I first came, I saw the car in front of Boss Guo's door, it must have been transporting these new teas." ”

"Not really." Guo Jing hurriedly explained: "The car carrying the tea is usually parked directly in the backyard, and one of my brothers came to visit, so I parked the car in front of the door, and I haven't had time to clean it up." ”

"Ao" Meng Shuang nodded clearly, then looked at Zhang An who had already weighed the tea, and said politely: "Since there are guests at Boss Guo's house, then Meng Shuang will not bother much, and when there is time, Meng Shuang will come to learn Boss Guo's tea art again." ”

Guo Jing's tea art can be said to be a must in Dianchi City, and it is precisely because of this that his business is also extremely hot, and he has won the favor of dignitaries and nobles in Dianchi City.

"Hehehe." Guo Jing hurriedly waved her hand and said modestly: "Don't dare to study, if Miss Meng Shuang has time, she can come to the store at any time." ”

"Hmm" Meng Shuang nodded politely, seeing that the maid had already taken the tea, and then said, "Then Meng Shuang will leave first." ”

"Miss Meng Shuang, walk slowly." Guo Jing smiled politely at Meng Shuang and hugged her fists.

Meng Shuang nodded, and then walked out of the store with the tea she had just bought.

As soon as she walked to the street, the maid walked up to Meng Shuang with the freshly bought tea in her hand, and said dissatisfiedly: "Miss, do you really want to marry that Seventh Prince!" ”

Xiaohuan is Meng Shuang's personal maid, and the two grew up together, so naturally they have no scruples when no one is around.

"Alas" Meng Shuang sighed, looked at Xiao Huan, who pouted and looked dissatisfied, and said, "I don't want to, but we are women after all, do we have to stay in our parents' family for the rest of our lives?" ”

"Miss, you think about it, but have you ever seen that Seventh Prince?" As if dissatisfied with Meng Shuang's compromised answer, Xiaohuan glanced at Meng Shuang, and then hurriedly approached Meng Shuang's side, and said mysteriously: "I heard that this Seven Princes of Eastern Wu has been a drunkard since he was a child!" Does the young lady want to marry such a person and be a lady? ”

"Whoever is talking about this nonsense." Meng Shuang glanced at Xiaohuan, but then sighed deeply.

"I'm not talking nonsense." Xiaohuan hurriedly glared and waved his hand, lest Meng Shuang not believe his words, and then defended: "Who in our house doesn't know, even the eldest young master knows!" ”

In fact, Meng Shuang didn't know, it's just that she was just a woman, just like what her brother Meng Shu said that day, as long as they married Dongwu, then with Dongwu's support, other families would definitely not pay attention to their family.

After all, their father has passed away, and now all the burdens in the family are placed on their two siblings, and behind them, there are also their clansmen, if they are not strong, then the other clans will come to settle new accounts with them.

Even the current Gao family, although Gao Ding's father was in alliance with their father when he was there, but now that Gao Ding is here, Meng Shuang and Meng Shu dare not be careless, especially Gao Ding, which makes Meng Shuang and Meng Huo always vigilant against the wolf around them.

Therefore, their family cannot decline, it must rise, and behind this rise, it is to sacrifice her to marry Dongwu, otherwise, when their family declines, it is not only her who will be sacrificed, but the entire family.

Meng Shuang naturally knew this truth, which was also why she knew that the Seven Princes of Dongwu was a wine bag and rice bag, but she had to do it, even if she was unpredictable, and she was a woman after all, she felt that this was her life!

"Miss! Miss! Xiaohuan looked at Meng Shuang, who was suddenly stunned, and stretched out his hand to shake it in front of Meng Shuang's eyes.

Meng Shuang suddenly came back to his senses, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's go back quickly, tomorrow the people from Dongwu will come." ”

"That! Does the young lady really want to marry the Seven Princes of Soochow! Xiaohuan still looked dissatisfied.

"Alas" sighed deeply, Meng Shuang felt his powerlessness for the first time, and smiled sadly, "Let's not talk about this." ”

"Ao" Xiaohuan also saw Meng Shuang's helplessness and wanted to persuade something, but she was just a little maid of the Meng family, she could only respond softly, and then walked towards Meng Fuzhong with the same steps as Meng Shuang, holding the new tea she had just bought.

At this time, Guo Jing, who had bid farewell to Meng Shuang, reprimanded Zhang An, who had made him feel absent-minded all day, and walked towards the courtyard with steps.

And Zhang An was also full of grievances at this time, he felt that there were too many things happening today, first the old man's family came to a dusty brother, and then the eldest lady of Mengfu, who always likes to come here to buy tea, came over today in person to ask for a full two catties of new tea, what to say to entertain guests.

"The old man's house has a guest, and the Meng Mansion is also coming to have a guest, so why are they all guests! It's so bad that I still let the master scold! Zhang An muttered two unrelated things in his heart while sorting out the tea leaves in the store
