"What's she doing here?" Mrs. Bao asked disdainfully, "That bitch hasn't dipped into the pig cage with her concubine yet?"
"Mother." Chen Mianmian was a little helpless: "I can enter the mansion thanks to her. You must not let her know that you have told her secrets. Otherwise, you will offend her and your daughter will be in the Hou Mansion." No good."
"You are her elder, what are you afraid of her doing!" Ms. Bao was very disdainful. If she wanted to say anything else, Chen Ming glared at her: "You want your daughter to make enemies before she has a firm foothold?"
Mr. Bao muttered: "That's not what I meant."
"Then shut up." Chen Ming said unhappily.
Mrs. Bao stopped talking and hated Xu Wanning in her heart. If her daughter became the wife of the Hou family, the first thing she would do would be to divorce this free-spirited woman.
When Xu Wanning came in and opened the things she brought, Mrs. Bao no longer hated it.
At least I don’t hate it now.
"Manager Chen, I have nothing to prepare when you come to Yancheng. There are two hundred taels of silver here. There are many delicious and fun places in Yancheng. You can take your aunt around Yancheng and have some fun."
Chen Ming was elated and said on his face: "Thank you, Madam."
Xu Wanning took out another gold ring with a piece of green and transparent jade on it. "I heard that auntie was coming, so I went to Duobao Building to have a look. I felt that this ring was particularly suitable for auntie."
Mrs. Bao was so elated that she said, "Okay, young lady, you are really thoughtful. I like it very much. You have put this thing in my heart."
Xu Wanning smiled happily: "As long as Auntie is happy."
Then he said to Chen Mianmian, "I recently got some new pieces of cloth. I originally wanted to make clothes for Brother Ping, but he already has enough clothes, and they are all red. They are not suitable for him to wear. I thought of giving them as gifts." My aunt is the best. If my aunt gives birth to an heir, it will be perfect to make clothes for the second son."
This is a gift...
They were all delivered to those who were present and absent, and they also said a lot of auspicious words. Xu Wanning was also a good person.
Chen Mianmian's eyebrows were filled with joy, and Mrs. Bao smiled brightly: "The young lady can still speak, Mianmian, please accept it quickly, what you are receiving is not just a few pieces of cloth, but also the young lady's eloquent words!"
Second Young Master, doesn’t that mean that Chen Mianmian will win a man in one fell swoop!
Chen Mianmian accepted it: "Aning, I will accept it, thank you."
Xu Wanning smiled: "We are all one family, so there is no need to be polite."
She exchanged greetings with the Chen family and left.
Mrs. Bao looked at the two hundred taels of silver, her eyes gleaming: "They say that the young lady of the Hou Mansion is a mountain of gold and silver. I didn't expect that she would be so generous. Let the three of us divide the two hundred taels of silver equally." ?”
Chen Mianmian said: "Mom and dad, Xu Wanning gave this to you, you can divide it."
"Okay. This will save the three of us from being divided evenly."
Mrs. Bao expected Chen Ming to share the money, but Chen Ming stuffed all the two hundred taels of silver into his arms.
"We can't spend this money frivolously now. Didn't you say that Mianmian is going to marry in Yancheng, so we'd better come with her? We'd better keep this money to buy a house." Chen Ming said.
Mrs. Bao muttered: "It's not like you don't know how expensive the house in Yancheng is. These two hundred taels of silver are enough."
Chen Mianmian was delighted: "You are coming to Yancheng to buy a house?"
Chen Ming nodded, "Well, we only have you as a child, so we can stay close and take care of him. If you are uncomfortable living here, you have a place to go, so you don't have to go to Zhuangzi, which is a long way."
"Mom, just listen to dad. Although it's not much, you can make a tower out of it. You'd better keep the money to buy a house." Chen Mianmian said excitedly: "If you are optimistic about the place and the money is not enough, my daughter is willing to Make a little effort.”
Chen Ming and Bao looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
"Our Mianmian has grown up."
Chen Ming took the money and left the Hou Mansion.
As soon as he left the Hou's Mansion, two men squatting and chatting under a shop not far from the Hou's Mansion looked at each other, spit out a mouthful of phlegm, and followed him.
Chen Ming looked at several houses, but the price was too expensive, the location was not good, or the houses were not good enough. Anyway, after looking at them all afternoon, he couldn't find any that he liked, so in the end he had no choice but to leave.
Passing by a noodle stall, two men were already standing in front of the noodle stall, talking and laughing.
The owner of the noodle stall suddenly called out to Chen Ming: "Sir, would you like a bowl of noodles? The noodles here are strong and full of ingredients. I bet you will want to eat them again."
The two customers in front of the stall also kindly helped him promote business: "Yes, this noodles tastes good, and you won't lose anything after eating it."
If you look carefully, you can see that these two guests are the two men who have been with Chen Ming all morning.
Chen Ming touched his belly and looked at the steaming soup pot. "Okay, then give me a bowl of shredded pork noodles."
Li Si smiled: "Brother, you won't eat it now. The best thing at this noodle stall is beef noodles."
"Then why don't you give me a bowl of beef noodles instead?" Chen Ming added.
The owner of the noodle stall was a little embarrassed, "Sir, I'm really sorry, there are only the last two bowls of beef noodles left. The two guests just now are leaving."
What an unfortunate coincidence!
Li Si said: "Boss, it's rare that I have a fate with this brother. Let's do this. You give him my beef noodles, and I want shredded pork noodles."
Chen Ming waved his hand quickly, "Why are you so embarrassed? You want beef noodles first."
"It doesn't matter, I often come here to eat, and I don't miss this bowl." Li Si said: "On the contrary, this brother, if you haven't eaten it before, don't miss it. It would be a pity to miss it. You eat this bowl , I want to come and have another bowl tomorrow."
Just in time, the boss's noodles were cooked, "Which table should the three guests sit at?"
Chen Ming immediately invited Li Si and Sun Wu: "Brothers, please sit with me."
The three of them sat down and Chen Ming took a bite of noodles.
Sure enough, the noodles were smooth and chewy, the beef was fragrant and spicy, and it was cut into thick slices. The smell of the soup soaked in marinade made people appetizing, "It's true, this beef noodles is delicious."
Li Si smiled: "I'm not lying to you. My brother and I come to this stall to eat noodles every day, right, boss?"
The boss smiled and waved the colander for noodles as a greeting.
Chen Ming and Li Si talked a lot, and their relationship was quite close. On the other hand, Sun Wu was devouring the food voraciously. There was still more than half of the noodles in their bowls, and he had already finished the last mouthful of soup: "Fourth brother, I've finished eating. I'm going to get busy first."
"Go ahead, go ahead. You have to pay close attention to that matter. If you can't sell it, it will fall into our hands and we will suffer from the northwest wind this year and next." Li Si said.
Sun Wu nodded: "I know, fourth brother, then you eat slowly, I'll leave first."
Chen Ming: "Little brother, what kind of big deal is this? I don't even have time to eat."
"Hey, what's the big deal? We are hard-working people selling houses."
