Chapter 231: A Unique Gift

The housewife is so understanding and considerate, which makes the Chen brothers feel extremely comfortable.

Seeing that the main mother Qu Xiaobai is so young, she is so thoughtful, which really makes people admire her.

Chen Fan was not late today, at the end of the unitary hour, at the appointed time, Chen Fan came by carriage. The sky will be dark, the street is already brightly lit, and the entrance of the restaurant is even more colorful.

Under the lights, the carriage is not much luxurious, but although Qu Xiaobai has not seen many good things when he came to this world, when he was in that world, he has not seen many good things, and the inconspicuous carriage is made of top-level old mountain sandalwood, which is a kind of wood that is only so agarwood. There is still a short distance away, and you can already smell the fragrance of old sandalwood.

In her world, this is the perfect wood for a bracelet, a bracelet is worth a lot, and people use it to make carriages!

It can be seen that this Chen Fan is a low-key and luxurious person.

It can also be seen that the Chen family has a thick background, so it seems that the Chen Xiang brothers worked for Yang Ling, but they were really wronged.

Alas, it can also be seen from this that the intrigue in the big family, killing people without seeing blood, how cruel it is. The Chen brothers are out, and it has nothing to do with Yang Ling's enablement.

Qu Xiaobai saw Brother Chen Xiang smiling and stepped forward to greet Chen Fan very respectfully, for some reason, there was a trace of sourness in his heart.

It stands to reason that brothers, friends and brothers should be popular with everyone, but this is just a faΓ§ade. How, that's not her business.

Qu Xiaobai took a few steps forward and blessed his body elegantly, "This is Chen Daguan, right?" Little woman Yang Qu, this is polite. ”

Chen Fan is in his thirties, with wheat-colored skin, a Chinese face, a pair of shining eyes, and a strand of black hair under his chin. Because of the good maintenance, I can't tell the real age, but Qu Xiaobai seems to have heard Chen Zui mention that his eldest brother is thirty-eight years old this year, so it seems that the maintenance is really good, and he looks like he is in his early thirties.

Seeing Qu Xiaobai saluting, he didn't return the salute, but just said lightly: "Mrs. Yang doesn't have to be polite." Mrs. Yang is not only a friend of Xiangdi and Zui'er, but also came from afar, this host should have been done by Chen, but Chen was inconsiderate. ”

Chen Fan lowered his head slightly, his eyes did not squint, although his words were a little arrogant, but they were not arrogant, but they made people feel that this was a pampered and noble son, not an ordinary profit-seeking businessman.

Qu Xiaobai has a good impression of him. Of course, good feelings are not equal to anything, and there are other things to consider whether they can cooperate, "Originally, it should have been my husband and wife who came to visit the big officials first, but my husband left early because of other things, and I am a woman, after all, it is not suitable to show my head, so I didn't come to the door rashly." After thinking about it for the past few days, I felt that I should still visit Chen Daguan, so I handed over the post to Chen Xiang. If you are presumptuous, please forgive me. ”

Nima, polite words are really tiring. Qu Xiaobai felt that her mouth was about to dry up, but she still had to have a suitable smile on her face, so she couldn't let Chen Fan look down on her......

I'm tired.

Chen Fan saw that Qu Xiaobai was talking extraordinary, and the contempt in his heart was a little less, Chen Xiang's brothers let people in, and there were still many customers in the store who had not finished drinking the big wine.

After going upstairs, it was a separate room separated from those boxes, Qu Xiaobai didn't write his name when he saw the private room, only wrote the word "day", thinking about it, this is a room specially left, usually not used to entertain guests, only for important people.

Qu Xiaobai guessed well, but this room was not for other important people, but for her husband Yang Ling.

Since the restaurant was built, this room has not been used, because Yang Ling has not been here yet.

Yang Ling didn't come, and it was good to welcome Yang Ling's wife, Chen Xiang felt that the main mother was equivalent to the master, so he opened this room.

The room is not big, at least half smaller than the room she had on the first day, but the decoration style is more luxurious. The tables and chairs of yellow rosewood, the cushions on the chairs are all velvet felt from outside the territory, which is fluffy and comfortable to the touch, and there are several large celadon bottles on the Duobao grid, look at the process, it is produced by the official kiln.

The rest of the calligraphy and painting works are also from the hands of famous artists.

Chen Fan glanced at the room furnishings, but did not hesitate to praise: "This room is good." In the past few years, I heard that you have run the restaurant well, and I am still very happy for you and Zui'er in my brother's heart. It's just that it's boring to always be a shopkeeper for others, and it's time for you to think about it and do your own business. ”

Qu Xiaobai's big eyes blinked. This...... He must not have known that she was the wife of their host, otherwise, how could he ask such a question in front of her?

But there is another possibility, he deliberately said this in front of her, wanting her to let her go.

Which one exactly? Qu Xiaobai was a little unsure.

Chen Xiangdao: "This is a restaurant that I run single-handedly, I am really reluctant to let go, let's wait for two years, not to mention that I am still young now." ”

Chen Xiang's appearance is somewhat similar to Chen Fan, but he is not so similar to his brother Chen Zui, who has the same father and mother, and even the tone of his speech is somewhat similar to Chen Fan.

Chen Fan nodded, "Your own affairs, just plan for yourself." When I was your age, my children were five years old, but now you have not yet taken a wife. ”

Chen Zui grinned and said: "He, the girl who wants to marry him can be lined up from South Street to North Street, what if he can't look down on others?" According to me, the eldest brother should forcibly send him a marriage and escort him to the bride! ”

Qu Xiaobai only thought that Chen Zui was joking, but he didn't expect Chen Fan to say very seriously: "If you haven't married a daughter-in-law and gone home before the end of this year, then use this method." ”

Chen Xiang: "......" stared at Chen Zui, hating to give him two slaps on the head.

Qu Xiaobai: "......" moved his gaze from Chen Xiang to Yang Chun's body, and raised his eyebrows, clearly meaning to piggyback on him.

Yang Chun faintly avoided her gaze and ignored her.

He doesn't want to marry a wife, okay?

Everyone returned to their seats, Qu Xiaobai sat in a guest seat at Chen Fan's insistence, he sat in the main seat, and the rest of the people sat according to the order of their seats, Qin Ba didn't want to sit, but he was still pressed on the seat by Chen Zui.

Qu Xiaobai looked at Chen Fan's second row, and already understood a question in his heart: Chen Fan knew who she was and why she came.

What he just said...... Sure enough, I told her about it.

However, he underestimated her cheekiness, Brother Chen Xiang, she wouldn't let it go, and she didn't have the right to make this decision on behalf of Yang Ling, after all, they actually belonged to Yang Ling's people. It's a big deal, she asked Yang Ling to give their brother some dry shares.

Thinking of dry stocks, she felt that her garment shop and wine store should also give some dry shares to the shopkeeper, so that they could better contribute to the shop.

Qu Xiaobai took a delicate wooden box prepared from Luoluo's hand, and said with a smile: "For the first visit, I don't know what kind of gift to prepare, Chen Daguan is the head of the family, and gold, silver and jewelry are just ordinary things in the eyes of the big officials. ”

Luoluo held the box in front of Chen Fan, Chen Fan's little servant took the box and gently rested it in front of Chen Fan, Chen Fan motioned for him to open it, he twisted the latch on the box and opened the box.

On the sky blue velvet cloth, put a few palm-sized rice paper, the first piece of rice paper, is a pair of earrings, the earrings are a small ring shape, the ring has some silk decorations, the center of the ring, embedded with seven stars, the shape is not complicated, but it is such a simple shape, Chen Fan, who has been operating jewelry all year round, knows that in order to create such a pair of earrings, the process is not so simple.

"These earrings are very chic." He flipped it down again, and there was a pair of earrings, which were in the shape of an orchid, and a necklace, but the shape was extremely complicated and exquisite, if it was created, a necklace would not be able to take down thousands of taels of silver.

Chen Fan's face became more and more solemn, "These are all painted by Mrs. Yang?" ”

Qu Xiaobai smiled and nodded, "It's ugly, I know that there is no shortage of skilled craftsmen in the mansion of the big officials, and it is definitely not a problem to design a jewelry, but I can't think of anything good to give for a while, so I have to know that it is an ugly offering, and I have to show my eyes." If I didn't spend a penny, the big officials wouldn't think I was stingy, right? ”

The people at the table were all curious about what Qu Xiaobai was drawing, but because of Chen Fan's presence, except for Chen Zui, who had always jumped out, dared to go up to take a look, the rest of the people were sitting firmly like a clock, holding their hearts that were about to move.

Chen Zui looked at the jewelry pictures, and sighed in admiration: "I only said that the clothes of the housewife are beautifully designed, but I didn't expect that there are also whimsical ideas on this jewelry, which is much more valuable than giving any jewelry!" ”

As soon as he was excited, he even shouted out "Master Mother", and Chen Fan's eyes glanced at him with deep eyes. It's Qu Xiaobai, and his expression is as usual.

Chen Fan already knew her identity at all, so it wouldn't be interesting to hide it.

Moreover, in her concept, she and the Chen brothers are a relationship between superiors and subordinates, and closer to it, they are a good brother, and they don't have the rigorous concept of master and servant in this era at all.

"Such a valuable gift, it stands to reason that I shouldn't have accepted it, but Mrs. Yang is sincere, but I am disrespectful, thank you Mrs. Yang for your kindness." Chen Fan accepted it generously, naturally, this means that he is willing to associate with Qu Xiaobai.

Qu Xiaobai said: "It's good if the big officials don't dislike it." ”

Chen Xiang ordered people to serve wine and food, the wine is a few fruit wines that Chen Zui practiced his craftsmanship, and it was held in a glass cup, with a beautiful shape, and it looked like a handicraft, which made people reluctant to put their mouths down.

Chen Fan's eyes moved slightly.

Despite his knowledge, this was the first time he had seen such a thing.

Chen Zui said: "This is what I learned from Mrs. Yang, not a trick, but a really good thing, but I am a beginner, the craft is still far behind, to say that Mrs. Yang has a good wine, I drank it once, and I still think about it unforgettable." Isn't it, brother? ”

Chen Xiang nodded, "Not bad." He picked up the glass cup, "Brother, let's try the craftsmanship of drunkenness, this wine is fragrant and sweet, not as spicy and astringent as the wine we often drink, but the stamina is not small." I just don't know how drunk I am doing. ”
