One hundred and eight. Painted wood
In the evening, Tu Zhi and Lingxiu actually came to the capital, when Shen Yue went back, Liu Bo said that someone came to look for her, she was still a little puzzled, walked to the living room, and after seeing Lingxiu and Tu Zhi, Shen Yue showed a smile, and Lingxiu threw herself directly into Shen Yue's arms.
"Sister, I miss you." Lingxiu said in a choked voice.
Shen Yue patted her on the shoulder: "I miss you too, don't cry, how old you are." As he spoke, his eyes were still red.
Tu Zhi stood behind them, looking at them with a smile.
After calming down, the three of them sat down in chairs, and the maid brought tea.
"Why are you here, what's wrong with Jiangcheng's Heart Joy Pavilion?" Shen Yue asked.
Tu Zhi shook his head: "There is no problem, someone is taking care of it now, it's good, this is the income of the last few months." After Tu Zhi finished speaking, he took out a thick stack of silver tickets from his arms.
Shen Yue didn't count, she directly put it into her arms, she believed them.
Then, Tu Zhi took out a stack of silver tickets, as well as boxes that had already been placed in the corner: "These are dowry, I want to marry Lingxiu, I hope the master can agree." ”
Shen Yue stood up in surprise, only to see that these dowries had already been brought over by Tu Zhi, but they had been placed in the corner, and her emotions were a little excited, so she didn't see them.
Lingxiu blushed shyly, lowered her head, and did not speak.
"Wow, you've abducted all my Lingxiu." Shen Yue said with a smile.
Tu Zhiye glanced at Lingxiu with a smile: "Giving a dowry gift is one thing, and I also want to participate in the food competition in the capital, and I have already passed the qualifiers." ”
Shen Yue's eyes lit up: "Yes, why don't I know about this." ”
"I wanted to surprise Master." Tu Zhi scratched the back of his head and said a little shyly.
Shen Yue patted him on the shoulder: "Yes, give me a long face, I am also a judge of this competition, just waiting for you to be in the limelight." ”
"It turns out that Master is a judge, so I have one less fierce opponent." Tu knows.
"By the way, today I met a man from the Tu family at the competition venue, I don't know if you recognize it." Shen Yue described the man's appearance to Tu Zhi.
Tu Zhi's face sank: "I know, this is Tu Mu of the second uncle's family, he has always looked down on me, thinking that I am the eldest son of Dafang, but I have no real ability, he has always wanted to replace me as the heir of the Tu family." ”
Shen Yue didn't know how to comfort him when he encountered such a family problem, so he just said: "Since this is the case, let's play a good game, defeat that Tu Mu in one fell swoop, and make him convinced of you." ”
"Okay." Tu Zhi smiled.
Shen Yue asked them to stay here, anyway, there are many wings in the General's Mansion. At dinner, Shen Yue took them to the Heart Joy Pavilion.
"The shops here are much bigger than those in Jiangcheng." Lingxiu sighed as she stood outside the store.
"The terrain is bigger, so naturally it will be bigger, and in the future, I will expand the shops in Jiangcheng, Liucheng and Sifang Town." Shen Yue said.
walked into Xinyue Pavilion, but accidentally bumped into Tu Mu, Tu Mu also saw them, and his face suddenly had contempt: "What, Tu Zhi, do you have the money to come here to eat now?" Do you want me to lend you some? ”
He glanced at Shen Yue again, knowing that Shen Yue was the woman he had met during the day: "I still want to form a gang, I think this one doesn't even know the Tu family, how strong can he be, you have become a little white face now, I heard that you also worshipped a woman as a teacher, but it's really a shame for our Tu family." ”
Tu Zhi's parents did not disclose his whereabouts, so Tu Mu knew very little.
Shen Yue raised his eyebrows, but did not speak, Tu Zhi glanced at him coldly, ready to bypass him, not to worry about him so much.
But Tu Mu was obviously not ready to let Tu Zhi go, and stretched out his foot to block Tu Zhi's way: "What, you just want to leave if you can't say it?" You're a shame on my uncle, because they talk about how good you are in front of my parents all day long. ”
Rising to his parents, Tu Zhi was not ready to endure it anymore, and turned his head to look at him: "Tu Mu, your current behavior is the face of the second uncle, how do you know that you will not let go, oh, I know, you have not won me in the family's cooking competition every year, so let's find some sense of presence in words, I can also understand, now I heard that you have also advanced to the Beijing Food Competition?" Coincidentally, I also made the cut, if there are so many dissatisfactions, surpass me in cooking, and if you can't beat me, don't be a dog barking here. ”
Shen Yue had never seen Tu Zhi's mouth so neat, and he couldn't help but feel funny.
Lingxiu stood aside, frowning all the time, pouting, with Shen Yue's understanding of her, she hated this Tu Mu very much now.
Tu Mu couldn't refute a word he said, and he was even more angry, looking at Tu Mu with pity: "I'm the gold member of this store, the shopkeeper, drive this person out for me!" ”
Shen Yue finally spoke at this time: "You said that you are the gold member of this store?" ”
"Not bad." Tu Mu was triumphant, thinking that Shen Yue was shocked, "Now you know, how to choose the right friend." ”
Shen Yue turned his head to Uncle Zhu and said, "Uncle Zhu, check which store this person is a member of, return the excess money to him, and all the Xinyue Pavilion will blacklist him from now on." ”
After speaking, she turned her head and glanced at Tu Mu: "Tu Mu, you can leave, and on the day of the competition, I am looking forward to your cooking skills." ”
After speaking, he turned his head and took Tu Zhi and Lingxiu upstairs.
The people who dined in Xinyue Pavilion had been unaccustomed to this person for a long time, and now Shen Yue's hand made them laugh involuntarily.
Tu Mu's head was a little out of shape at this time, no matter how stupid he was, he knew who opened this shop, and Shen Yue was the judge of the competition, and he also knew that he originally wanted to take the opportunity to eat to see if he could meet Shen Yue and take the opportunity to curry favor with him, but he didn't expect it to become like this, he not only mocked Shen Yue, but also showed his side in front of her, and his face instantly had a look of decadence.
Over there, Zhu Bo had already found out where he had applied for the card, and immediately returned his extra money to him, and then said politely: "Master Tu, please leave, we will not welcome you in Xinyue Pavilion in the future." ”
"Childe." The attendant next to him pushed Tu Mu, and he was also a little annoyed in his heart, if he didn't mess with Tu Zhi, how could they fall to the point where they are now.
Tu Mu reacted at this time, then took the silver and left angrily.
After going out, he turned around and said, "Bah, something." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of soldiers walked up to him: "What a crime to insult the royal princess!" ”
After speaking, he grabbed him, and Tu Mu panicked: "I... I'm not insulting the princess, I'm talking about my brother, I'm not insulting the princess. ”
But the soldiers didn't listen to him, and directly arrested him and took him to the government: "Everything is up to the government's lordship." ”
The attendant was in place, watching Tu Mu being dragged away, and stomped his feet before chasing after him: "Young master, young master!" ”
Shen Yue and the others sat by the window, naturally knowing what was happening below.
Tu Zhi closed the window, not worried about Tu Mu at all.
The pair of soldiers were specifically patrolling around the Heart Joy Pavilion, just worried that someone would be looking for trouble, and this was the first time they knew about their benefits.
"Thank you, Master, for your support." Tu knows.
"You are my apprentice and Lingxiu's future husband, so I naturally want to defend you." Shen Yue said.
Lingxiu blushed and glanced at Shen Yue: "Sister, don't laugh at me." ”
"Okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore." Shen Yue is as good as a stream.
She ordered the new dishes that Xinyue Pavilion had recently come out to give them a taste, and she herself ordered a small hot pot to eat, and she still missed it a little after a long time.
After eating, several people went back to the General's Mansion, Muyang also came back, and Shen Yue packed a meal for him.
Seeing Tu Zhi and Lingxiu, Mu Yang nodded at them.
"General." Lingxiu and Tu know.
Lingxiu was still a little scared when she saw Muyang, especially after knowing that he was a majestic general, she was even more scared, but Tu Zhi was very calm, neither humble nor arrogant.
In the evening, Tu Zhi and Mu Yang talked, while Shen Yue led Lingxiu to the garden.
Mu Jing and Mu Yue also woke up, they were very curious about Lingxiu, and they were chattering around her, and Lingxiu also liked these two children.
"Lingxiu, is he good to you?" Today, Shen Yue didn't have time to ask this question.
Lingxiu's face was slightly red: "It's good, he depends on me for everything." ”
"That's good, you're my person, if you don't like it, or if he treats you badly, you tell me, no one can force you to marry." Shen Yue said, it's not that she doesn't believe Tu Zhi, but she feels sorry for Lingxiu, when she was sold, her soul was traumatized, and now it is not easy to have someone she likes.
"It's nothing, sister, I like him a lot, before, my family knew that I was promising now, and I came to entangle, and it was Tu Zhi who helped me." Let you Xu Dao.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Shen Yue frowned.
"I know that my sister is busy, so I don't have to worry about these little things, anyway, now that they have left, with Tu Zhi, they won't come to me again." Lingxiu said.
According to Lingxiu, after the family knew that Lingxiu was in Jiangcheng, they brought more than a dozen members of the family to Jiangcheng, stopped at the door of Xinyue Pavilion, and told Lingxiu to go out.
After Lingxiu went out, they began to reminisce about the past, saying that they had no way to sell Lingxiu, and now they knew that they were wrong, so they asked Lingxiu to forgive them, and then they all ran to the mansion that Shen Yue bought for Lingxiu, and they all sighed how magnificent and luxurious this house was, and the implication was that they were going to live here, and Lingxiu's so-called parents also justifiably let Lingxiu make money to support their family, and let Lingxiu give her younger brothers and sisters to find a job in Xinyue Pavilion, They knew that Lingxiu had a good relationship with the boss of Xinyue Pavilion, but Lingxiu was reluctant to say something.
Hearing that Lingxiu was unwilling, they immediately turned their faces, saying that they raised Lingxiu as an adult, and Lingxiu was ungrateful.
I went to Xinyue Pavilion during the day to make trouble, and at night I made trouble in the house, and it didn't take long for the neighbors in the neighborhood to know about it, and Lingxiu also felt that this was a shame for my sister, and it would affect Xinyue Pavilion's business.
Later, Tu Zhi stood up and said that he was going to report to the official, and then said them viciously before giving them some money and driving them away.
Shen Yue's eyes were slightly cold, she didn't hesitate when she sold Lingxiu at the beginning, but now that she knew that Lingxiu was out, she came to the door again, Lingxiu was bought by her, and without her permission, who would dare to hit her attention.
Looking at Shen Yue's appearance, Lingxiu knew that Shen Yue was angry because of this incident, and she hurriedly said: "Sister, it's okay, don't be angry, I was just afraid to see you like this, so I didn't tell you." ”
Shen Yue softened his expression: "Okay, I know, I'm not angry, if there is anything else in the future, you can tell me, although I don't have much power, but I can also help you." ”
"Got it, sister." A smile appeared on the corner of Lingxiu's mouth, no matter what Shen Yue's identity became, her sincerity towards her would never change.
