Chapter 71: Eavesdropping

When the box was opened, Xi Feng smelled a fragrance, and the pastries were still steaming, it should have just come out of the pot.

Xi Feng twisted a piece of chestnut cake and put it in Xi Ming's hand, "Eat it while it's hot, it's not delicious when it's cold." ”

When it's cold, the eldest brother can't eat it, but can only taste it.

Vanilla took a small plate, Xi Feng took a small plate, and filled a piece of chestnut cake for Xi Ming, the horseshoe cake was cold, and Xi Ming couldn't eat it.

Xi Feng also packed two pastries himself, and seeing that there were still a lot of pastries, he rewarded Vanilla and A Meng with two pieces each, and said, "One person eats two pieces, you can't eat more, you will eat in a while, and if you eat too many pastries, you should not be able to eat." ”

"Sister, I'll just eat a piece." Xi Ming moved the untouched pastries on the plate forward, wanting to save more stomach to accompany his family to eat.

Xi Feng added a few pieces of pastry to the plate, picked them up by himself, and wanted to send them to Ruan's to eat.

Vanilla put down the snack in her hand and said, "Miss, let the slave and maid deliver it." ”

"No, you can eat, I'll go."

Xi Feng took the plates, walked out of the dining hall, and went to the main house.

Walking to the door, Xi Feng was about to knock on the door, and in the room where he listened, Xi Tongfang was saying, "Ah Xiu, you say, what does the fourth master of Chu mean, these days, there are stewards of the Chu family who go to the shop to buy incense and candles, each time it is thirty or forty taels of silver, I heard that the Chu family wants to use incense candles, and the wives and ladies of the Chu family want to use incense candles, so they will buy so much, however, I heard that the Chu family also has its own incense and candle shop, and in the past, the Chu family used to use the incense and candles in their own shop, why don't they use the things in their own store now, Instead, they came to our shop to buy it? ”

Xi Tongfang lowered his voice a little, "You say, Fourth Master Chu is still repaying Ah Feng's life-saving kindness by doing this?" ”

"It shouldn't be, how can there be such a kindness?" Ruan shook his head, however, apart from returning the favor, the Chu family and the Xi family had nothing to do with each other.

"Today, Feng San's shopkeeper brought a housekeeper-like person to the coffin shop, saying that he was the in-law of the Chu family, and a concubine in the family had a sudden illness and wanted to buy a thick cedar coffin."

"In addition to a thick cedar coffin, there are other things, a total of more than two hundred taels of silver were bought, Ah Xiu, how do I think, Fourth Master Chu is taking care of our shop's business?" Xi Tongfang's brows were furrowed, and he was about to kill a bee.

Ruan Shi also felt like this, "Well, didn't you say that in the past few days, the housekeepers of the Chu family have all gone to our incense and candle shop to buy things, and they will also take relatives and friends there, that is, they are taking care of the business in our shop." ”

"Hey, Fourth Master Chu owes us Ah Feng's life after all, he probably knows that we can't accept the silver directly, so he came to take care of the business of our shop in disguise."

Xi Tongfang can only guess so.

Xi Feng outside the door, frowning when he heard this, was about to knock on the door and go in, suddenly, there was a trace of movement outside the window, Xi Feng's eyebrows were cold, and he quickly ran to the window, and looked out, there was no one outside the window.

Xi Feng turned around, Su Xin suddenly jumped down from the beam of the house and landed in front of her, Xi Feng asked, "You were outside just now?" ”

"I'm not so bored, go and eavesdrop on Master Xi's two words of self-consideration." Su Xin looked at Xiangqiao who came slowly outside the door, "It's her, but she moved fast, and she wasn't caught by you." ”

"It seems that she is very comfortable with eavesdropping, and she can even escape very quickly." Xi Feng sneered coldly.
