Jiang Duanchen and Xiao Yan made an appointment to talk in Jinshi Pavilion today, and Su Ling also followed. But she's here to run her shop.

Jiang Duanchen handed over such a large shop to her, and she had never managed it properly. It has always been Liu Zhang's care.

Jiang Duanchen went up to the third floor naturally, while Su Ling stayed on the first floor to check the ledger.

When Shopkeeper Liu saw Su Ling coming, he hurriedly said enthusiastically, "Boss, you are here."

Su Ling nodded and said, "Uncle Liu, you entertain the guests first, and I'll come when I go!"

Shopkeeper Liu nodded and said, "Don't worry, owner."

Jiang Duanchen sat next to the wooden table and chair in front of the window, his feet stacked, his fingers lightly clasped, and he didn't seem to move his chopsticks.

Xiao Yan sat on the square stool diagonally opposite him, picked up the wine jug and poured himself a glass of wine, and said, "Brother Jiang, I don't know what I called here today?"

Jiang Duanchen picked up the wine cup, took a sip lightly, and said with a light smile: "A few days ago, Nie Yunhua sent someone to kidnap my father."

Xiao Yan was shocked when he heard this, and said, "What, then Master Jiang is fine."

Jiang Duanchen waved his hand and said, "It's okay, fortunately, my wife reacted quickly and saved him in time, otherwise I would have made her pay."

Xiao Yan said with a guilty expression on his face, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect her to do the same to Master Jiang." Xiao Yan knew that Nie Yunhua was not good enough, but she and Jiang Duanchen's biological mother were friends after all, and he never thought that one day she would do this to her friend's people.

Jiang Duanchen frowned slightly and said, "Now it seems that she has done everything to kill me and Su Ling."

Xiao Yan's face darkened, and he sighed in a low voice, "I know what you want to do, but no matter what you want to do to her, it has nothing to do with me. All I can do is not stop you, after all, she is my mother, and I can't help you hurt her."

Jiang Duanchen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't force you to do something like that, I still want to tell you something."

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yan asked suspiciously.

"I've found your uncle." Jiang Duanchen took a sip of tea and said calmly.

Xiao Yan frowned, "My uncle? Hasn't he been for years?"

"Yes, I've been helping Nie Yunhua find his whereabouts, and I found it later." Jiang Duanchen suddenly looked at Xiao Yan seriously.

"My mother...... Does she know?" Xiao Yan paused and asked.

To be honest, he didn't have much impression of this uncle, but he always heard Nie Yunhua mention it when he was young.

Nie Yunhua said that she has a younger brother who is studious and diligent, and he is also very good-looking. When no one is around, Nie Yunhua will even show a gloomy expression.

Her biological mother died early, leaving her and her younger brother to live under their original partner.

After she married Xiao Guangji, her younger brother disappeared.

"She didn't know, I didn't say."

Xiao Yan frowned when he heard this and said, "Why?"

Jiang Duanchen sighed and said, "Because your uncle is not the same as her, he doesn't like those deceit in the officialdom."

Xiao Yan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "Okay, since he doesn't like it, then respect his ideas, but I'm still quite curious about what kind of person my uncle is."

Jiang Duanchen smiled softly, "You'll know when you stay and see."

Xiao Yan raised his head and said seriously, "Can I see him?!。

Jiang Duanchen raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course, not only do you want to see him, but I also want him to assist you."

"Help me?" Xiao Yan said hesitantly. After all, not everyone can use the word assist. He looked at Jiang Duanchen's eyes, but understood what he meant.

"He'll be here later, let's order first, the food in this Jin Shi Pavilion is really good." Jiang Duanchen beckoned Xiao Er and prepared a set of dishes and chopsticks.

Jiang Duanchen looked at Su Ling and saw that she was sorting out the accounts there with her head lowered. He stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Yan's shoulder, signaling him to be quiet.

When Su Ling saw the two of them standing outside the door, he stopped sorting out the accounts and shouted, "Are you done talking?"

Jiang Duanchen smiled and said, "Yes, we have finished ordering, do you want to come and eat together?"

Su Ling smiled, shook the account book in his hand and said, "This thing, it's a bit difficult to calculate, I have to look at it for a while, you can eat it."

When Jiang Duanchen heard this, he said, "You, don't toss your body, what are you doing so desperately, here I am."

"I'm not here to help you with the burden. You see you've lost a lot of weight in this time."

Jiang Duanchen looked at her concerned gaze, his heart was warm, and said, "Isn't this a good place, besides, if I have been chubby, do you still like me?"

"Nasty!" Su Ling glanced at him with disgust and continued to bury himself in the ledger.

Xiao Yan held his mouth on the side, looking aggrieved. Jiang Duanchen smiled and patted Xiao Yan's shoulder.

Xiao Yan glared at Jiang Duanchen, Jiang Duanchen smiled and withdrew his hand. Xiao Yan said sullenly, "I'll go to the kitchen and get a pot of wine."

As soon as Xiao Yan left, Jiang Duanchen turned his gaze to Su Ling and said, "Ling'er, originally I wanted you to be a hands-off shopkeeper, why did you study this account book seriously?"

Su Ling was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really not that I don't know, such a big restaurant, there is so much running water, then I really make a profit."

Jiang Duanchen sneered, "Yes, you've made a lot of money, it's all yours."

Su Ling also raised a big smile, "So, I can't be a shopkeeper, I have to be worthy of my little money."

Jiang Duanchen looked at her like this and felt very cute. Unconsciously stepped forward and pecked her secretly.

"My good lady, all the money we earn in the future will be yours, okay?"

"That's Dingding!"

Su Ling's eyes lit up. Jiang Duanchen looked very fond of it.

At this time, Sheng Huai'an also came to the Jin Food Pavilion. Jiang Duanchen beckoned to him when he saw it, and then said to Su Ling, "Then I'll continue to talk to them, madam, don't be tired."

"Got it~"
