Chapter 586: Warmth (8)
From beginning to end, Li Wenxuan, who didn't eat too much, was very patient and leisurely until Chu Hanlu couldn't eat anymore, so he and she were going to get up and go home. Touched the left sleeve, and then touched the right sleeve, looked at her who took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth gently, and smiled awkwardly: "I was in a hurry when I came out, and I forgot to bring silver." If you have money with you, pay the bills as soon as possible. ”
Chu Hanlu, who smiled wryly at him, didn't need to touch his pocket, and knew that he didn't have a penny on him at this time, after all, he didn't expect that this would temporarily run out of the house to eat. She had to tell the truth, and she really cried and laughed: "I didn't bring it either." ”
Li Wenxuan, who couldn't help but be happy, naturally didn't take such a trivial matter to heart, and joked with the excuse: "Either mortgage me here, and you go back to the house to get the money to redeem me, or just bet you here, and I will go home and get the money and then take you back?" Hurry up, do you choose the former or the latter? ”
Chu Hanlu, who also understood in his heart that he couldn't use the five taels of silver that he had previously compensated to Liu Laohan as their meal money, pretended to be a little entangled, but couldn't help but laugh and said: "I want to come and go, if I mortgage you, a dignified servant of the Ministry of Rites, here, and I go back to the house alone to get the silver to redeem you, I will definitely be cursed by my sisters afterwards." So, if I don't go to hell, who will? Mortgage me here! If not, there is another way, which is for us to stay and help the family wash the dishes, clean, greet the guests, and so on to pay for the meal. ”
Li Wenxuan, who touched his chin with his right hand, pretended to be quite satisfied, and nodded frequently: "Your last word." That's a pretty good idea. Okay, then we're done. You go to the back of there to wash the dishes, and I'm in front of you as a companion to greet the guests who come to eat and drink. ”
Chu Hanlu, who promised a "yes", was really not afraid of washing dishes or anything, after all, before he married him, the family's dishes and chopsticks were not only washed by themselves. And cooking is also done by herself. She was already smiling so much that she couldn't close her mouth, and she seemed to lean forward and lean back a little and said, "Since the master is not afraid, then I don't need to be afraid." ”
Soon, Li Wenxuan called Liu Laohan to the table, couldn't help but laugh, and showed that he was really embarrassed and couldn't say: "Now, we don't have a penny on us." So, after our constant discussion, we decided to stay and give you a helper. It's worth the cost of this meal. I'll be your runner and greet the guests, and she'll go to the back of your kitchen to wash the dishes and pick up the vegetables. ”
Liu Laohan, who was dumbfounded on the spot, was not distressed about the little bit of money. Not to mention that they had done themselves and their family a great favor before, and they also made Chu Hantian, a person who was even a high catcher, a person who was respectful, reward him with five taels of silver. No matter how stupid Liu Laohan is, he can see that the identity and status of the two people in front of him are not ordinary.
"Sir, ma'am. Don't play with the little old man. It is normal for people of such noble status as you not to carry money with you. I was fortunate enough to let you eat a mutton hot pot here from Xiao Lao'er. That's a small face. If the little one asks you for money, then he will slap himself in the old face. But seeing with his own eyes that Chu Hantian was obedient to this young and beautiful girl, obediently paid money, and obediently left, Liu Laohan saw clearly in his heart that this young and handsome man who was with her must be very humane.
"If you eat, you have to give money. That's a no-brainer. If we leave without paying, won't we become white eaters? We can't do it. Is it possible that you don't want us to help you work to pay for your meal? Li Wenxuan, who was smiling, didn't make fun of him, but thought it was weird and funny through this matter.
Liu Laohan who hurriedly knelt on his knees. It's just a little bit of fun. Kowtowing to him, he showed a bitter gourd face and said, "Master, the little one begs you here." Don't be funny. The little one dares to use someone of such dignity as you two! That's going to be a blessing and a long life. ”
"Don't kneel, you better stand up quickly! Let's do the math, how much is it? When you get back, I'll have someone bring it to you right away. Seeing him, Li Wenxuan, who was sincerely frightened, really couldn't bear to make fun of him at will.
"This, this, this......" The pronunciation of the word "this" is dragged by Liu Laohan, who really didn't know what to do for a while. I really didn't want their food money, and I wished they would accept him with a face.
"Don't be afraid, old man. My grandfather is not a bad person. We ate at your place, and we should pay for it as a matter of course. As for the five taels of silver that I gave you earlier, this one is not included, after all, what my little brother has done has indeed not only affected your business here, but also frightened your family. Chu Hanlu, who had a very kind smile, whispered softly.
Liu Laohan, who dared to stand up again, knew in his heart that such a person in front of him would not be short of money, and he would not take the opportunity to ask for more, after all, he has always been a person who buys and sells in good faith. After counting it carefully, he reported it respectfully, "It's four hundred and fifty-six dollars in total." ”
The index finger of his right hand was Li Wenxuan, who had pulled the table full of things, but he couldn't believe it: "We have eaten a lot of things, how can we only have these money?" Did you deliberately give us a little less? ”
Liu Laohan, who met such a patron for the first time, called the word "Qu" in his heart, after all, others would suspect that he would overcount, but in fact, he had never done such a lack of virtue even once. He really couldn't laugh or cry, and finally believed that some people who came out of the high gate and deep mansion really had no concept of money, and quoted the original price to Li Wenxuan one by one and said: "Master, it's really four hundred and fifty-six dollars." Not much, nothing less......"
Chu Hanlu, who has very experience in living in the market, has no doubt about the number that the two of them have consumed. If you put it on your past life, you can come here with Chu Hantian twice to make a tooth sacrifice. Not only to relieve Liu Laohan, but also to relieve Li Wenxuan's doubts, she interjected and said: "He is such an honest man, there will be no mistakes." (To be continued......)
