Chapter 237: The Little Master of Nine Miles is here
Wait for Jiuli to come back, you ask her yourself, Qi Qizhu's words made Qi Shixiang stunned for a moment, and then she was thinking about everything, what kind of person did Aunt Mu introduce to her sister, it can't be like Yu Haotian.
But since my sister knows, does that mean that this family affair is something that my sister has seen, so why didn't I say it before, oops, it's really heartbreaking.
Qi Shixiang didn't know how many times she looked at the sky, and felt that the sun was setting very slowly today, and her sister had to wait until it was dark to get home.
At this time, Qi Jiuli, who was busy at the Qiuwei restaurant, was sitting behind the counter in a daze, looking at the lobby where it was past lunch time and there were only two tables left.
Qi Jiuli had already eaten lunch, he was full, he drank a big bowl of mung bean soup to quench his thirst, and the accounts at noon were basically clear.
"Nine miles."
Qi Jiuli came back to his senses, looked up in the direction of calling his name, because he didn't hear who was calling him for the first time, and when he saw Yan Chengtao who came down from the second floor, Qi Jiuli hurriedly got off the stool and stood up straight, "Shopkeeper Yan." ”
"You go up to the second floor with me, get the accounts of the past half a year right, calculate it as soon as possible, and settle it in a few days." Yan Chengtao said.
"Okay."
However, as soon as Qi Jiuli walked out of the counter, two people entered the shop, Qi Jiuli didn't think about it, because there was a guy in the lobby, who had already gone up to welcome her, and she heard the word "guest officer".
But after seeing Yan Chengtao's eyes wide open, his face full of surprise, and walking past him with vigorous steps, Qi Jiuli turned his head to look at the gate and saw two unfamiliar faces.
"Xia Ye, why are you here?" Yan Chengtao smiled, bowed slightly, and greeted a man about thirty years old, "Is this year's tax going to be collected early?" ”
Qi Jiuli raised his eyebrows, the one who came to collect taxes should be someone from the county government, no wonder...... Qi Jiuli expressed his understanding of Yan Chengtao's behavior at this time.
"Shopkeeper Yan, I misunderstood, I didn't come out on business today, otherwise how could I wear regular clothes." Xia Lunhai replied with a smile, "I'm here with Jin Ye today." ”
Yan Chengtao looked at another man standing on the edge of Xia Lunhai, looking at his twenties, younger than Xia Lunhai, and carrying a burden in his hand, but looking at Xia Lunhai's attitude and the title of this man, Yan Chengtao knew that this person had a higher status than Xia Lunhai, "Jin Ye is here, and the small shop is really full of brilliance." ”
Jin Guangming smiled and waved his hand, "Lord Xia, you are so polite, just call me by my name, and so is Shopkeeper Yan." ”
"Jin Ye is the person next to Lord Tongzhi, and he gives advice to Lord Tongzhi every day, and he deserves such a title." Xia Lunhai said with a smile.
Jin Guangming was a little helpless, he was just helping to deliver the letter today, although he was a person next to Lord Tongzhi, but he was only a scribe, Xia Lunhai was the county lieutenant of the county government, and he was a high-grade adult.
However, Xia Lunhai said that he had taken leave early today, his father-in-law's house was in Jinshui Town, and he happened to come to Yue's house with his wife, not to mention that he was familiar with Qiuwei Restaurant, and he was responsible for paying taxes every year, Jinshui Town, so much tax and silver needed him to bring a small official to be responsible for safety.
Along the way, Xia Lunhai couldn't be more enthusiastic about himself, Jin Guangming refused a few times, and also explained that the purpose of his trip was to do private things for Lord Tongzhi, but Xia Lunhai didn't care, and said that he just took Jin Guangming to take a tour of Jinshui Town to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, and he was also helpless and could only accept it.
"Lord Xia has won the prize." Jin Guangming made a gesture towards Xia Lunhai.
"There is a private room upstairs, and there have been a lot of new products in the small store recently, so the two masters must try it." Yan Chengtao warmly invited.
"It's okay, I haven't had lunch yet, and I've just arrived in town." Xia Lunhai said with a smile, "Trouble Shopkeeper Yan to prepare some good dishes and wine." ”
"It should be, it should be." Yan Chengtao replied repeatedly.
"Hey, by the way, Master Jin's affairs have to be done first, and Lord Tongzhi's instructions are the most important." Xia Lunhai said with a smile.
"Jiuli Little ......" Jin Guangming almost shouted out the word "Miss", and suddenly remembered Miss Guo's thousands of instructions, and couldn't tell his identity, so he hurriedly closed his mouth and said smoothly, "Is the little master of Jiuli here?" ”
Qi Jiuli, who was originally in the background by the counter, was named all of a sudden, and then "Boom-" In the lobby, all the people from Qiuwei Restaurant came over, and even the two tables of guests who hadn't finished their meals had also come over.
With such a bright gaze, the target person was clear at a glance, and Jin Guangming and Xia Lunhai also saw it.
Qi Jiuli stepped forward with a smile, and generously bowed to Jin Guangming and Xia Lunhai, "The two masters are good, I don't know ...... Jin Ye is looking for"
"You are the young master of Jiuli, you are really heroic." Jin Guangming interrupted Qi Jiuli's words and said, "Don't bother you, I came here today to help the young masters of the Wei Mansion and the Guo Mansion deliver a letter." ”
Jin Guangming took out two letters from the placket, and the words "Qi Jiuli Collection" were written on the letterhead.
Xia Lunhai on the side looked at the two letters, thinking of the Wei Mansion in Jin Guangming's mouth just now, but he didn't expect that it was not only Lord Tongzhi, but also the Wei Governor's family, thinking like this, Xia Lunhai's eyes looked at Qi Jiuli with deep meaning, why did the two adults in Shun'an Mansion attach so much importance to the young man in front of them.
Although it is a letter written by the young master of the two mansions, it is the same lord who can send the letter, and the person who comes to send the letter is not the little guy of the two mansions, but the people of the government.
The young man in front of him has red lips and white teeth, a kind smile, and the whole person feels generous and decent, which is not like the temperament of a bookkeeper in a restaurant, and his age is ...... Xia Lunhai still remembered that the bookkeeper of Qiuwei Restaurant was an old man in the past, and now the one in front of him is also young.
Qi Jiuli saw the envelope in front of him, and he knew the situation today, Wei Minghe and Guo Huaixi wrote a letter to themselves, at this speed, it was okay, so the two of them had already written it when they left Fucheng, after all, it was only three or four days since they came back.
By the time I got home, the letter was almost on the way, and the content of the letter should have been to say goodbye to peace and explain the way to write the letter.
However, Qi Jiuli was still very happy, this was the first time he had received a letter in this era, and it was from a friend, which was even happier than receiving a message in modern times.
"I didn't expect it to arrive so soon, and I just came back from Fucheng a few days ago." Qi Jiuli said with some emotion, "It's troublesome Jin Ye." ”
