Bai Sanzhuang became angrier as he thought about it.
He thought he could earn money from the Shen family, but he didn't expect that the Shen family would take advantage of his sister.
Bai Sanzhuang regretted that he took the order for Qing Rongsha without thinking carefully.
After calming down, Bai Sanzhuang changed his mind and walked through the bustling restaurants and restaurants one by one, telling the waiters that he was looking for someone.
When he came to a lively teahouse near the river, he walked around and heard someone talking about the Shen family. Bai Sanzhuang ordered a pot of tea and sat down.
"...Brother Liu, you have made a lot of money these days. You said you got a few thousand-year-old ginseng in your shop. Only the Shen Mansion and the Zhou Mansion can afford such old ginseng in Huaicheng, right?"
"I also accidentally bought it from a merchant from Heishan Baishui, but you are right. Only a few restaurants in Huaicheng can afford this ginseng. The Zhou family doesn't know, but the Shen family has already sent the servant Come and take it away. Not satisfied with Brother Zhu, the Shen family suddenly gave me an extra hundred taels of silver."
Bai Sanzhuang caught the news about the Shen family in his ears. He was about to inquire about it, but he got it easily in the teahouse.
Bai Sanzhuang slowly looked towards the next table. A man with a purple face in his thirties, who was called Brother Liu, was chatting with a man with a beard who was called Brother Zhu.
"I wonder if Brother Liu has heard that the young master of the Shen family killed his parents when he was born. The master ordered that the weak crown should not leave the house until Shen Junshan and Mrs. Shen can rest in peace. What fate is this? Is it true or false?" Brother Zhu asked in a low voice.
When Bai Sanzhuang heard this, his heart moved.
I heard Brother Liu chuckle and said: "Do you believe this? You have just moved to our Huaicheng for half a year, so you don't know the twists and turns inside. The young master of the Shen family came at the wrong time. Shen Junshan was out in Shuzhong at that time. In an accident, the pregnant eldest wife was forced to give birth prematurely under the coercion of the head of the Shen family. The eldest wife went as soon as the young master was born. The young master may have been in poor health since he was a child because he did not have the protection of his parents. He had to take medicine every day, so the Shen family found him. A master’s statement.”
"Brother Zhu, none of our herbal medicine shops have ever delivered medicine to Young Master Shen. As for Young Master, no one has ever seen him at this age. When I went to deliver medicine to Shen's family, I met a concierge who said that Young Master had no one beyond the second door. He has never been out, and he has never seen the servants waiting outside the second door of the house. You know that his illness...can't be hidden for a long time, so you can't just use the master's instructions not to go out as an excuse. They are all bluffing. "
Bai Sanzhuang felt a chill in his heart after hearing this.
What a Shen family, to think of such an idea.
"...I also heard that this young man needs to get married early and with a girl with a lucky destiny. What's going on?" Brother Zhu asked thoughtfully.
"This is a false theory that the medicine cannot be used." Brother Liu shook his head and continued, "It is not a secret that Mr. Shen needs a lucky girl in his life to marry. It has been spread all over the street. In the past two years, Lucky girls appear from time to time in various counties and villages in Huaicheng, and nine times out of ten, they are from families who want to seize the Shen family's fortune, regardless of whether their daughters live or die."
…
The more Bai Sanzhuang listened, the more horrified he became.
Although Bai Sanzhuang felt that his girl was the best, even the emperor personally blessed her with the honor of being the head of the village. But in such a powerful family, the girl's background is still just in the countryside, and she cannot reach a wealthy family like Shen's family.
It was strange that Shen's family wanted to marry his sister because of their huge wealth. It turned out that the young master of Shen's family was weak and sick and could not even leave the house.
The Lao Bai family is not a family that sells its daughters for glory, let alone the Shen family, even if it is a more powerful family than the Shen family, such a young master is not worthy of his sister.
"Sir, your tea has gone cold. Can I give you a refill of hot tea?" The waiter came to Bai Sanzhuang with a smile on his face.
Bai Sanzhuang woke up and found that the table next to him was empty.
So he stuffed some broken silver into the boy's hands and said, "Thank you for reminding me, I'll leave now."
"Please come back next time, sir." The waiter put the money in his arms and saw the guest off enthusiastically.
Bai Sanzhuang walked out of the teahouse and heard scolding from the noodle shop next door: "How can you eat noodles if you don't have money? Why don't you take your luggage and pay in person?"
Bai Santian looked up and saw a man with a scar on his face and tattered clothes. He was standing in front of the noodle shop at a loss and said in a hoarse voice: "Shopkeeper, I also noticed that I lost my money when I was eating noodles just now. I didn't mean not to give it to you. Please allow me to go back." Pick."
The shopkeeper looked disgusted and said: "I've seen too many beggars like you cheating me out of food and drink. You scarred face is so scary. You entered my noodle shop and scared away the customers. In addition to your noodles, I will also pay for the loss." , we can’t leave without compensation.”
The man with the scarred face opened his mouth and was speechless. The noodle shop owner asked the waiter to keep his luggage.
Bai Sanzhuang couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked over and said to the shopkeeper with a smile: "I paid for this guest."
As he spoke, he took out the broken silver and handed it over.
The shopkeeper took the broken silver and sneered: "What about the losses caused by scaring away the customers?"
Bai Sanzhuang continued to smile and said: "Opening a business is supposed to be a good relationship. It is unreasonable for you to lose money. How can you prove that your customers were scared away by him. I advise the shopkeeper to do business in a friendly manner. Make money."
The shopkeeper snorted and asked the clerk to throw the luggage over, then waved the scarred man and Bai Sanzhuang away.
"Thank you for your help. Brother, can you please leave your name so that I can repay you later." The scarred man said in a hoarse voice.
Bai Sanzhuang smiled and said: "It's not worth mentioning, everyone will have difficulties outside."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver and gave it to the other party.
When Bai Sanzhuang turned to leave, the scarred man looked at his figure and nodded slightly. A face with staggered scars and a smile looked weird and terrifying.
If Xiao Fuyuan were here, she would definitely remember that this person was the housekeeper Luo she met when he bought her a house in Yangfeng County.
Zhou Mansion, Hexiang Garden.
Bai Panmei and Erlang came from school to meet their families.
Among them, the most excited person was Xie Chuntao. This son could not stand up on his legs when he was a child. After his legs recovered, he did not stay with her for a few years and left her to study.
These days, she has been thinking about Erlang day and night, and she sheds tears when she sees Erlang.
"Why are you crying? Your son is here to study." Old Mrs. Bai couldn't stand her grandson's daughter-in-law crying in someone else's house.
But Erlang was not so sad about spring and autumn. Together with the fourth child of the Bai family, he kept circling around Xiao Fuyuan.
"Sister, I can finally see you."
"Little aunt, what I miss most these days is you."
Xiao Fuyuan rubbed the fourth brother's hand and touched Erlang's head, switching roles between the group favorite and the elder.
The fourth son and Erlang of the Bai family were extremely excited when they saw that Xiao Fuyuan was still as affectionate towards them as before.
Before Xiao Fuyuan could speak, Old Mrs. Bai said, "You two hug Xiao Yuanbao and enjoy her blessings, your studies will be smoother."
Xiao Fuyuan: "..."
