"Why!"
Xiao Ran didn't take two steps before he was stopped by someone.
"I don't want this money anymore."
The gold was stuffed back into Xiao Ran's hand. When Xiao Ran was stunned, he ran away.
"You don't want any money?"
The first time he met such a fresh and refined person, Xiao Ran felt a little uncomfortable.
When he came back to his senses, he had already returned to the inn. He didn't know what was going on, so Xiao Ran put away the money and would pay him again if there was a chance in the future.
Back at Chu's house, Chu Yanhong had finished exercising and frowned when she saw Xiao Ran coming back.
"Why did you run out again?"
"Have you had enough sleep?"
Xiao Ran did not directly answer Chu Yanhong's words. It was only noon and Chu Yanhong had not slept for long at all.
"I'm not sleepy anymore."
Xiao Ran nodded, walked to the table, and put the money bag on it: "Look, I've made a lot of money again."
"You brought so much money?"
Chu Yanhong opened the money bag and looked at the large amount of banknotes inside, a little surprised.
"Two hundred taels of it are my own, and the rest is Chu Sheng's money."
"Chu Sheng?"
Chu Yanhong was a little confused.
Xiao Ran slowly told what happened today, feeling a little happy when he thought that Chu Sheng had suffered the loss of being mute and had lost so much money in vain.
"By the way, let's sort out the accounts today. We'll come to collect the accounts!"
Xiao Ran put his two hundred taels on his body: "Everything we have is a lot, and we want all of it back!"
"They will have to pay two thousand taels in compensation at that time!"
Seeing Xiao Ran grinning evilly, Chu Yanhong put down her money bag: "It's definitely not possible to just come to the door like this!"
According to Chu Tianshu's character, if he cheats when the time comes and delays, they won't be able to get any money back.
"How would you know if you didn't go?"
Seeing Xiao Ran make up his mind, Chu Yanhong could only agree.
"I'll let Qingtong get the account book later."
Xiao Ran was satisfied and turned to the kitchen. He cooked two dishes for Chu Yanhong and ate them briefly.
Otherwise, Chu Yanhong would definitely not be able to bear it after being hungry all day.
After dinner, I brought my account book to Chu Tianshu's house.
"Why won't the door open?"
Chu Yanhong looked at the closed door and frowned.
"Laifu, knock on the door."
There was no guard at the door, so Laifu walked up and knocked on the door.
But there was no response at all.
Laifu used all his strength to suck the milk, and the door shook greatly when he knocked.
"Stop knocking!"
The door creaked open, and a middle-aged man poked his head out.
"Let's find Uncle San." Chu Yanhong took the lead in announcing her identity.
"The old man has left."
"Leave?" Xiao Ran looked at Chu Yanhong confused.
"Yes, they went north!"
After being informed by his servant, Chu Tianshu took his wife to go north to escape the summer heat.
"Impossible." Xiao Ran just saw Chu Sheng, how could Chu Tianshu leave now.
"Where's Chu Sheng?"
"Master, he hasn't come back these days."
After hearing this, Xiao Ran finally understood that he was avoiding them intentionally.
"OK."
It seems that this house is empty, no wonder no one responds to the knock on the door.
As soon as Xiao Ran turned around, the door behind him immediately closed.
"Then what do we do now?"
No one was there, and Chu Yanhong had no idea.
"Don't be afraid, Chu Sheng is still in the city. As long as we find him, there will be a solution."
Suddenly I felt a little annoyed. I should have stopped Chu Sheng if I met him today.
"I know where he is."
Taking Chu Yanhong to the entrance of the teahouse, she saw many people gathering in and out, but Chu Sheng was not seen.
Several people walked into the teahouse and were recognized at a glance.
"You can't go in."
A waiter stepped forward and stopped Xiao Ran and Chu Yanhong.
"We can't go in? Why?" Chu Yanhong raised her voice instantly.
"You are not welcome here."
As soon as these words came out, Chu Yanhong was about to have a fit, but was stopped by Xiao Ran.
"Don't worry!"
Xiao Ran stepped forward: "You are open for business, why don't you let customers in?"
Hearing this, the waiter looked at Xiao Ran and said disdainfully: "Our teahouse is not short of your money."
In and out of words, he somewhat looked down on the two of them.
"Is Chu Sheng here with you?" Xiao Ran didn't bother to waste time with him and asked directly.
"Who is Chu Sheng? I don't know him. Let's go quickly!"
After saying that, the waiter gave a wink, and several people gathered around and pushed Xiao Ran and Chu Yanhong out of the door.
No matter how stupid Xiao Ran was, he still guessed that Chu Sheng must have something to do with this place.
"stop!"
There was a loud roar, and seeing that Xiao Ran and the two were about to be kicked out, Chu Sheng stood up upstairs.
Looking down, I saw a man slowly walking out from outside.
"Who asked you to drive away the guests?"
"The shopkeeper..." The boy who had just chased people away was a little surprised and bowed his head.
Shopkeeper?
Xiao Ran turned around and looked at the man, not knowing him at all.
"Hello, I am the shopkeeper of my teahouse. My subordinates are ignorant, so I hope you won't argue with them." The shopkeeper stepped forward with a smile.
"Oh? So it's a boy? I don't know, I thought he was the shopkeeper and could kick the customers out directly." Chu Yanhong said in a strange way.
The boy lowered his head, sweating profusely.
"It's all my fault." The boy knelt down with a plop.
"I think you don't have to work here anymore." The shopkeeper looked at the boy coldly and said expressionlessly.
"Can not be done!"
The waiter looked pleading: "Shopkeeper, I've been working here for five years and I can't leave!"
He has been working here for five years, many customers know him, and he is rewarded a lot every time, so why would he be willing to leave?
"You've annoyed the guests, and you still want to stay here?"
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately looked at Xiao Ran.
We were watching a show, why did something happen to me?
"I'm sorry, sir, it's my fault. You don't remember the faults of others."
Xiao Ran's sleeve was grabbed and he stumbled.
"Just talk, why do you move your hands?"
He supported Xiao Ran and opened the boy's hand with some displeasure.
Sansanran said: "I'm sorry, Master! I really need this job. Can you please help me?"
Xiao Ran glanced at him coldly: "The teahouse doesn't belong to me, the shopkeeper has the final say."
This man obviously took advantage of Chu Sheng, how could he still speak for him?
"Okay, don't let him ruin your mood. Come with me?"
Ignoring the boy on the ground, he led the two of them into the teahouse.
Without even looking at the people on the ground, Xiao Ran walked into the teahouse.
He looked up but saw no one.
At this moment, Chu Sheng was hiding in the box, not wanting to meet Xiao Ran.
After a few times, Chu Sheng also learned wisely and realized that he was no match for Xiao Ran, so it was better to hide away.
Now that Xiao Ran came to the teahouse, he must be running for him, so Chu Sheng couldn't send him there.
"Quickly think of a way, how to get out of here?" Chu Sheng grabbed his follower, a little anxious, Xiao Ran might come up to him after a while.
