Chapter 60
Pei Ze handed the elder sister two yuan and said, "It's pretty good."
He put his arm around Zhong Miao and walked away. The older sister wanted to follow and say something else, but Pei Ze glared at her and she gave up.
"This guy is really amazing. He can even guess the truth from nonsense." Zhong Miao couldn't help but complain.
"They hang around in the crowd every day, and when they see someone who looks like them, they'll strike up a conversation, start with a conversation, and then read their expressions and try to trick them. They'll always be right at least once or twice."
"That's pretty impressive. At least you have to be able to judge people and think quickly."
It really is a matter of making money based on one's own ability.
"Normally she would tell you that you have obstacles in your life, and when you are so and so old, if you want to break them, give me money and I will help you break them, hehe."
Pei Ze explained the routine to his wife.
"Then why didn't you say we had a problem?"
"Who knows? Maybe she saw it. I don't like to hear it. If she dares to say it, I won't give her a penny."
How come reading people's expressions isn't a skill?
"Pfft, hahaha, tell me, what is a true master like? Have you ever seen one? I've even read books on fortune-telling."
Zhong Miao became interested.
"A true master? I've never seen one either. When we have the chance to meet one, we'll take a closer look. Wife, why do you still believe this?"
Pei Ze coaxed his wife.
"Young man, let me tell you something. Your wife thinks you talk too much nonsense, so you will be sent to sleep on the sofa tonight."
Just answer whatever is asked, there are not so many questions.
"Master, please show me how to overcome this obstacle tonight."
Pei Ze was climbing up the ladder, he didn't want to sleep on the sofa.
"If you find some delicious kebabs, that barrier will be overcome."
"Okay, it's almost there. You'll definitely like it."
He needs to pay more attention to what delicious food there is in the future, this greedy girl.
After walking through the bustling streets, Pei Ze led Zhong Miao to an inconspicuous alley. Not far away was a noodle restaurant with a grilled kebab stove at the door and a few tables and chairs placed at the door.
Zhong Miao saw two small mountains of meat skewers at the place where he ordered food, one was beef skewers and the other was lamb skewers. As for grilled vegetables, grilled fish, and grilled seafood, there was none of them. Those must have been things that came later.
Pei Ze ordered two bowls of noodles and a handful of beef and mutton skewers. After paying the bill, the couple sat at a table outside and waited.
"The only kebabs you have are kebabs of meat?" Zhong Miao asked a soul-searching question.
"Then what else do you want? Isn't it just lamb skewers? It's hard to find anyone who cooks beef." Pei Ze handed her a bottle of soda naturally.
Zhong Miao took the soda and took a sip. She understood. There was actually only one kind of grilled skewers, which was lamb skewers. They would also add beef ones, but nothing else.
She had almost lost interest until the pulled noodles and meat skewers arrived and she took a bite of the skewers.
"Great." Zhong Miao was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears. She had never eaten such delicious skewers, not even in her entire life.
The mutton is not dry at all and is very tender. Not only does it have no strange smell, but it also has a sweet and fresh taste. Between the two large pieces of lean meat is a small piece of charred fat, which has the smell of charcoal fire. It is very fragrant and burnt.
The seasoning was a little salty, but the mutton was fresh and sweet. She ate it one skewer after another, putting the noodles aside as she wanted to eat the meat first.
"Haha, eat slowly. If you don't like noodles, don't eat them. If it's not enough, we can order more." Pei Ze ordered two staple dishes because he was afraid that she would not be full with only the skewers.
"Let me try it later." Oh my god, this kebab is so delicious.
After they sat down, it was almost time for dinner. Even though this stall only grilled two kinds of skewers, there were a lot of people coming to eat.
But most of the time I order three or five skewers of food. I just like the taste. It is completely different from the way I ate whatever I wanted in my previous life. It’s obvious that it’s true love.
Zhong Miao moved the noodles closer to his eyes, prepared himself mentally, and took a bite.
Why do I need to be mentally prepared? The soup is really too dark in color and looks like Chinese medicine.
"This is delicious too." After taking a sip of the noodles and a bite of the braised egg, Zhong Miao gave it a high score.
"Just eat it if you like. I'll bring you here whenever you want to eat it."
By the way, this place is really far from home.
"Yeah." Zhong Miao stopped talking and started eating.
This stretched noodle soup is an old soup. It looks dark in color, but it is actually chicken soup with various seasonings added. The salty taste blends with the aroma of the seasonings, creating a stimulating taste that is a bit special but acceptable to everyone. The noodles are hand-stretched, a bit like ramen, and are particularly chewy.
Pei Ze ate noodles for a whole night, so he didn't eat many of the grilled skewers, as they all went into Zhong Miao's stomach.
"You haven't eaten much of this skewer. Do you want to order a few more?" Zhong Miao couldn't eat anymore.
"No, I'm full. I don't like eating meat very much." Pei Ze was telling the truth. In fact, he didn't like eating very much. It wasn't that he had no sense of taste, he just didn't have the desire.
"Okay, I'm full." Zhong Miao felt a little embarrassed as his belly bulged a little.
"Eating a little more will give me more energy to paint." Pei Ze only recently discovered that oil painting is still a physical job.
"No, that won't do. This is fine. I noticed you're not picky about food."
"I used to be greedy when I was little, but when I went to college I didn't have the heart to eat anymore. I just ate whatever was available."
"You can live longer this way. You'll eat the same amount at every meal, so you won't overeat or starve yourself. It's not bad, but it's a little less fun."
"I'll eat with you and be just as happy. Master, have I overcome the hurdle I faced tonight?" Pei Ze really liked watching her eat. This greedy cat was particularly beautiful to watch while eating.
"For the sake of the skewers, I'll break it for you."
It was the couple's first date. There were no flowers, no gifts, no movies, and no concerts. There was only tender affection flowing between them, and it was comfortable and leisurely.
Zhong Miao originally thought that this was the end. The car had stopped at the door of her house. Just as she was about to get out, Pei Ze pulled her back to her seat.
"Wife, this is our first date, shouldn't we leave a souvenir?"
"Ah? What souvenir do you want?"
"Here you go." Pei Ze took out a small velvet bag from his trouser pocket and handed it to Zhong Miao.
Zhong Miao took it and opened the velvet bag. Inside was a pair of gold wedding rings. The style was simple and elegant, and the patterns on them were not particularly obvious. The pattern on the women's ring was the same as the men's, but there was an extra small ruby as an embellishment.
"Hehehe, let me bring it to you?" Zhong Miao picked up the one for men.
"Wife, call me husband." Pei Ze stretched out his hand.
"I can't say it out loud." Zhong Miao put the ring on him.
"Come, I'll put it on yours too." Pei Ze put the ring on Zhong Miao's finger, took her hand, and kissed her fingers solemnly.
"Then let's go home?" Apart from the jewelry given by her mother-in-law, Zhong Miao really doesn't have any other jewelry. This is the first one.
"Let's go home."
After entering the house, Pei Ze pulled her again and brought her to the mirror, and took out a long box and a small square box from somewhere.
He first opened the small square box, and inside was a gold bracelet with simple and elegant patterns on it. He put it on Zhong Miao, and it was just the right size.
There is a necklace in the rectangular box. Under the thin chain is a small pendant inlaid with rubies. The teardrop-shaped ruby reflects the dazzling light.
Zhong Miao particularly likes this ruby, it is extremely beautiful.
"How is it? Do you like it?" Pei Ze spoke in her ear, his eyes fixed on the perfect couple in the mirror. No matter how he looked at them, they looked so well-matched that he couldn't get enough of them.
"I like it." She really likes it. It is delicate and small, and suits her very well.
"Listen to me calling you husband." Pei Ze ran his hand through her slightly curly long hair, unable to let go.
"I can't say it." Zhong Miao still couldn't say it. Nowadays, people call each other "Mr. Zhang" and "Mr. Li". No one calls each other "husband" like on TV. She suspected that Pei Ze had watched too many Hong Kong TV dramas.
"It's okay, my husband has a solution."
Zhong Miao didn't know how many times she called her husband "husband" that night. He was too fierce. She couldn't fight back, and begging for mercy was useless.

During this period, Pei Ze's business empire has been very active. It cannot be said that it has caused a sensation in the whole city, but the advertising effect has also caused a considerable response. Almost everyone who has a TV at home or has watched TV at other people's homes knows the brand Ming'an Home Furnishing.
As a local conscientious enterprise, he strictly controls the quality and divides the prices into three levels: high, medium and low-end, so that most people can afford it. He quickly occupied a part of the local market and attracted a large number of consumers who support local enterprises and some curious customers.
Similarly, other cities in the province placed orders one after another, hoping to make a fortune by taking advantage of the fame of Ming'an Home Furnishing's TV commercials. Pei Ze became busy unknowingly, and of course, he made more and more money.
On this day, the furniture factory welcomed a rare guest, Liang Nuo, the project leader and host of an interview program on Qingzhou TV Station.
Pei Ze took time out of his busy schedule to receive the guest. The other party waited for half an hour but showed no impatience at all.
"Hello." Pei Ze pushed open the office door and saw Liang Nuo. He greeted him first but did not take the initiative to shake hands.
"Are you the person in charge of Ming'an Home Furnishing?" Liang Nuo stood up from the sofa and was quite surprised to see Pei Ze like this.
In her impression, entrepreneurs are either old men or middle-aged men. She didn't expect that the other party was so young, tall and handsome.
"Yes, my name is Pei Ze."
"Hello, Mr. Pei. I'm the host and project manager of an interview program at Qingzhou TV Station. Mr. Pei, have you watched our program?" Liang Nuo handed over his business card.
Pei Ze took the business card and saw the name of the program on it. He remembered that Zhong Miao would watch it every weekend night. He also accompanied
She has seen the show.
Pei Ze took out a business card from the drawer in exchange.
"I haven't really watched it, but my wife quite likes it. It's one of her favorite shows."
Pei Ze probably guessed the other party's intention. He had been making big moves recently, and the advertising effect had spread throughout the province. Although it was not a household name, the impact was wide enough. At least, few people who had a TV at home did not know Ming'an Home Furnishing.
"I'm honored that our show has the support of your lover. Are you interested in being on our show?"
Liang Nuo explained her purpose. She wanted to meet this hot emerging entrepreneur today to find new material for the show. It just so happened that one of the hot topics recently was the rise of Ming'an Home Furnishing, a local company.
"About when, what do you need me to do?"
"The recording will be in about two weeks, and it will be broadcast a week later. Our program is weekly. We will have the interview script ready by then, and you just need to answer the questions."
"Mr. Pei, our previous interviewees have all been successful people from all walks of life. The questions generally focus on how they achieved success, the obstacles they encountered on the road to success, and so on. Of course, for the sake of show quality, we also include some questions about family or life."
Liang Nuo has a gentle and generous voice and speaks without an accent. She has a good foundation in broadcasting and her speech is very organized. She is graceful and elegant, and she dresses exquisitely and beautifully.
"I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow." When Pei Ze was talking about things, he didn't have the clingy sense of humor that he had in front of Zhong Miao, nor did he have that ruffian air. Instead, he gave people a sense of decency and reliability.
This sense of decency makes people ignore the fact that he is less than 30 years old. He appears to be both sophisticated and entrepreneurial. In short, he is a very calm person.
Pei Ze thought about it and decided that appearing on TV would be a good idea. Not only would it serve as publicity, but his wife could also see him on her favorite show.
