Chapter 144: Deep Thought
Outside the door was the sound of crackling firecrackers, and the noise was even worse than before, with white smoke mixed with red pieces of paper that were blown out, which attracted many people to watch.
Shen Yuanyao looked at it and felt that Ji Wenqi was more suitable for business than herself, this line of work more or less relied on some connections, plus people who knew each other did not have conflicts, and these people were willing to come to the door to cheer. She remembered the day the pastry shop opened, not to mention the people coming and going, even the people who watched the excitement felt few.
When the sound of firecrackers fell, the shop was opened.
Steward Ji left before lighting the firecrackers, and many people who heard the movement flocked to see the excitement, and he walked against the current in the crowd. Walking a few steps and being bumped into a few times, the man was in a hurry to see the opening of the new store, and he apologized casually, but Steward Ji didn't care much, and just walked back along the way he came.
He is really a little angry now, hiding his anger from Ji Wenqi, and he is also angry with himself. This child has been brought with me for so many years, and it is really the first time that I realize that I don't know him.
The past kept coming to Steward Ji's mind, and the person he had always regarded as a child had also grown up, and this would be an amazing thing under his nose.
His feelings for Ji Wenqi's nephew are complicated, Steward Ji has always felt that he is still young, and wants to take him under his wing, for fear that he will be hurt. The last incident of epidemic malaria was just the beginning, and after the epidemic malaria passed, Ji Wenqi was still the same as before, and he still had nothing to do in the market.
It was also this behavior that made Steward Ji think that this incident was just a coincidence. happened to find the problem of the Qin Doctor's Clinic, and it was also a coincidence that I met Dr. Shen. He was so anxious that he didn't have time to think about it, what a coincidence it was to be able to do this. Even the Qin Medical Hall was calculated by Ji Wenqi.
"Hey." The more Steward Ji thought about it, the more confused he became, how could this time pass so quickly?
Steward Ji paused in the ensuing flow of people, and turned his head to look in the direction they were rushing to. When he saw Ji Wenqi's familiar greeting person, he should have stepped forward to bring the person back to Jirentang, but this thought also flashed in an instant.
He still didn't want to continue watching, so he turned around and left, not continuing to watch.
At this time, in the crowd, Steward Ji hesitated again, go back and bring people back, is it still ...... Just let him go down like this?
Steward Ji finally dispelled the idea of going back to get Ji Wenqi back, since they all wanted to hide it from him, they should treat it as if they didn't know. He really can't see it clearly after so many years, so let's wait for them to do it and talk to themselves.
Shen Yuanyao searched all the people who came to see the excitement, but she still didn't see the Ji steward holding the rag, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart: Is this her leaving? Or are you waiting to go back to the seizure?
"Why are you stunned?" Ji Wenqi didn't know where to come out, patted Shen Yuanyao's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hurry up and send the God of Wealth in." ”
After Ji Wenqi finished speaking, he took Shen Yuanyao and walked inside, Shen Yuanyao didn't expect that there was such a thing as offering to the God of Wealth, and instantly left Ji Steward behind.
This is a family matter of the Ji family, and it has nothing to do with her, at most it is just an instigating crime. She can still bear this, and as for this matter, it is much more important to Ji Wenqi.
I had something I wanted to do, but I had to come secretly for various reasons.
Those who came to the door were lively for a while, and some busy people left after leaving their gifts. By the end of the afternoon, many people had left, and the excitement gradually dissipated.
After sending these people away, Ji Wenqi still cared about her image, and the whole person fell to the literary chair.
This chair was improved by Shen Yuanyao, and it was originally just for himself and Liu Anyi to enjoy it, but when they saw the curious start, they couldn't get started. Compared with the dry and rigid boards of the chairs that are often seen on weekdays, these improvements are simply enjoyable, and they are much more comfortable to sit on.
This has benefited a lot of people, even Steward Ji likes this kind of chair, but he also likes it secretly.
Ji Wenqi leaned back in the chair, tilted his head to relax himself, and the tiredness and hardship of the past few days were for today. It's really okay to open the door today, it's not much different from what was expected, and then just wait for the business to come to the door, and the rest don't worry too much.
The carriage and horse company recruited a number of servants, and at this time the proprietor and the steward were resting in the house, and their hands and feet were quickly serving tea and cakes.
As soon as this thing came up, Shen Yuanyao felt that she was hungry, and even Ji Wenqi couldn't wait to pick up a piece and eat it. The two took advantage of the fact that there was no third person and ate without any image for a while.
When my stomach was half full, I put down the pastry in my hand.
"I'm really tired and panicked." With something in his stomach, Ji Wenqi's tiredness eased a lot. Tired is really tired, and when you are hungry and still feel tired, then you really shouldn't be.
"I've been thankful for you these days." Shen Yuanyao replied, and didn't look at Ji Wenqi's movements.
Ji Wenqi pinched the towel in his hand and carefully wiped his hand in pinching the pastry, which was very pleasing to the eye.
"Nothing is going on today, is it?" Shen Yuanyao took a sip of tea and asked leisurely. Thinking that this would be really tiring, he said again: "You are also tired, do you want to go back to rest?" ”
"No, I've opened a few wings here, just deal with it at will, and when there will be business coming to the door, I don't have a steward to see what to do." Ji Wenqi replied lightly.
Ji Wenqi is also really tired, this carriage and horse travel has consumed his own mind, this body is indeed tired, but this heart and mind are active. It's impossible for him to walk away, and now the momentum is down, and then wait for the business to come to the door.
He had to be present for this first business, otherwise it would be really uncomfortable.
Shen Yuanyao saw that he insisted, and he didn't say much.
The main thing is to think of Steward Ji, he has seen everything today. It's good that Ji Wenqi won't go so quickly, otherwise Manager Ji didn't think about what to do if he came up to ask.
It's better for this family to be in harmony, and it's a matter of arguing all day long.
Shen Yuanyao thought so and walked out of the door, with such a capable steward here, what else did she worry about? But seeing that Ji Wenqi is doing so well, he suddenly has the idea of cheering.
She really didn't believe it, this business was really so difficult to do?
When Steward Ji returned to Jirentang, he was still thinking about Ji Wenqi's child. Gui Zhi temporarily helped Du Zhong look at the door of the store, and this will see Steward Ji walk in the door with empty eyes.
"Steward Ji, where are you going so early?" Gui Zhi suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but ask.
Steward Ji was called back to his senses at this time, and looked at Gui Zhi with some puzzlement, "Why are you here?" "Gui Zhi has not been here for long, and he also asked Du Zhong to slowly take her to recognize words and herbs.
Learning these is extremely boring, but Guizhi is a person who has suffered hardships, and he is very satisfied with his current life, how can he not be serious.
Steward Ji didn't know if he was angry with Ji Wenqi or something else, as long as he saw the diligent and studious children, he felt good. In particular, Guizhi's previous experience made them pity it, so although Du Zhong was more powerful than Guizhi, the people in Jirentang loved Guizhi more.
Steward Ji looked at the well-behaved and lovely Guizhi, and suddenly remembered Ji Wenqi when he was a child, and when he came back to his senses after recalling, he really felt that Ji Wenqi was not small. He is also really old, and he can't keep him under his wings all the time, and this wing also falls off at times.
At that time, no one will be willing to protect him, and it is not a bad thing to be sensible now.
It's just that Manager Ji is still a little uncomfortable in his heart, he originally wanted Ji Wenqi to take over this Jirentang in a few years. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to see a doctor and write a prescription, there is still a doctor in this Jirentang.
Dr. Shen's relationship with his nephew is good, and he doesn't need to speak at all if he helps. Shen Yuanyao is also a kind and righteous person, and he will repay the favor no matter what.
Steward Ji has thought about the way forward for Jirentang, for Ji Wenqi, and for Ji Wenqi, he has also thought of the most helpless way out, all for Ji Wenqi and the Ji family.
Now that Ji Wenqi has what he wants to do, he can't be as light as he promised before. Steward Ji didn't dare to guarantee that he could grind Ji Wenqi to take Jirentang next.
Hey, what's that? Steward Ji sighed again, still can't figure out what to do,
I have to go back to the study and think about it.
Thinking so, Steward Ji was about to walk to the backyard, but suddenly Gui Zhi grabbed his arm, and said crisply: "Steward Ji, don't take the rag away." ”
Gui Zhi saw that Steward Ji looked confused, and stretched out his finger and pointed at his chest, "Isn't this a rag in front of the counter?" "This is obviously the rag on the counter, why was it taken away by Steward Ji?
Where is there any rag on him, he went out early this morning, how can he have time for that rag. It's just Gui Zhi's serious eyes, and Steward Ji looked at himself along Gui Zhi's hand.
This rag revealed most of the cloth, which was not the same as the towel he had taken out this morning, it was obviously much smaller, and it was not a good material. It wasn't until now that Steward Ji felt that the towel was really familiar.
It's really embarrassing now, and Steward Ji subconsciously wants to cover up the rag, but Gui Zhi saw it and said it. Isn't it like covering your ears and stealing the bell to cover your rag suddenly? Stealing or wiping the rags on the tables and cabinets in the store?
At this time, if there is a hole under Steward Ji's feet, he will definitely put it in immediately, and he will never come out again to be embarrassed.
No wonder he said, how can some people look at themselves, and they want to speak and refuse and be ashamed, isn't that just the way they want to remind him and dare not come forward?
The more Steward Ji thought about it, the more he felt embarrassed, why didn't he pay attention to himself at that time, it would really lose a lot of face. He can only pray secretly now, and no one along the way will come out of him.
Steward Ji took out the rag and put it on the top of the table, and left without looking back. It was really refreshing to look at this crisp and neat, but it was only him until it was to hide from shame, and he had the rag on his head for a long time.
