Chapter 265 Go if you want
Shen Zhiyan thought for a while and said:
"I really can't think of one. Why don't you come with me to buy a fish basket?"
Ye Caiping was confused: "What is this?"
"I was just about to go out to buy some fish baskets when you came. I really can't think of any thank you gift, but you still want to thank me, so buy me some fish baskets."
Ye Caiping: "Don't you have a fish basket at home?"
“It ran out last time.”
Can the fish basket be used up? wrong......
Thinking of this, Ye Caiping's mouth twitched slightly. Every time he sent her a fish, he would only use one, and it really became a consumable.
Ye Caiping had no choice but to nod: "Okay, I'll pay."
Shen Zhiyan smiled: "What are you waiting for, let's go."
The two of them walked out of the Shen Mansion one after the other and came to the noisy street.
Soon, we arrived at the same fishing tackle shop as last time.
The waiter's eyes lit up when he saw the two of them, and he stepped forward with a smile: "Mr. Shen is here again. Ah, the Madam is here too."
Shen Zhiyan smiled and looked back at her: “Pick for me.”
Ye Caiping found it funny. Was he picking clothes? Do I have to choose when buying a fish basket?
Ye Caiping finally picked a regular one, and Shen Zhiyan said, "This is it. Waiter, I want 50 of this one."
Ye Caiping thought to herself, you only catch two or three small fish a month, how long will it take you to use these 50?
But this was a thank-you gift, so Ye Caiping couldn't be stingy and was very generous: "Is 50 enough? How about 200?"
Shen Zhiyan: “That’s fine.”
The waiter was so happy: "Give me the address and I'll send it over later. Two taels of silver."
"Okay." Ye Caiping gave the money.
After the two left, the waiter looked at their backs with envy:
"Being handsome is different. You have a rich woman to love you! Even the fish baskets are bought at two hundred yuan apiece. Tsk tsk tsk tsk."
After leaving the fishing tackle shop, Shen Zhiyan casually walked on the street: “Just taking a walk?”
"Yeah." Ye Caiping hadn't been shopping leisurely like this for a long time and was in a good mood.
A bookstore not far away.
Master Qian walked out of the shop with a few books. Hey, is that Madam Ye and...Mr. Shen?
Why are the two of them hanging around here?
He looked around but didn't see Ye Xuan or anyone else, just the two of them. This is very strange.
He clearly remembered that he was introducing a gentleman to Ye Xuan, not acting as a matchmaker. So why did these two seem like a perfect match?
Master Qian saw the two of them stop at a jewelry stall and couldn't help but step forward: "Madam Ye."
"It's Master Qian. Hello, Master Qian." Ye Caiping smiled.
Master Qian looked at Shen Zhiyan nervously, and said with a cupped hand: "Student, I meet Mr. Shen."
"Hey... who is this old gentleman? Do you recognize him?" Shen Zhiyan's expression was slightly cold.
Shen Zhiyan was a little unhappy when he was strolling quietly and suddenly a little old man came.
Ye Caiping said, "This is Master Qian, who taught Xuan'er before."
"Oh." Shen Zhiyan nodded.
Master Qian really likes Shen Zhiyan, his old face is full of admiration and nervousness: "I once attended your class when I was studying abroad a few years ago."
"Um."
Ye Caiping saw Shen Zhiyan's cold attitude, but Master Qian seemed to admire him very much.
In order to express his gratitude to Master Qian for his help to Ye Xuan, he smiled and said:
"What a pleasure to meet you. How about we go to the Shunke Building in front for some tea?"
Master Qian's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, have some tea."
Shen Zhiyan looked at Ye Caiping: "Do you want tea?"
"yes."
"Then let's go have tea."
Master Qian's face flushed with joy, and he went to Shunke Tower with Ye Caiping.
We arrived at Shunke Building and went up to the private room on the second floor.
A few people sat down and the waiter brought snacks and tea.
Master Qian smiled and said, "I heard from my son the other day that Mr. Shen went to the county school to give lectures."
Shen Zhiyan nodded: “Fang Xuezheng sincerely invited me, so I’ll go and take a look.”
Ye Caiping was shocked. Shen Zhiyan went to the county school to give lectures?
Doesn’t that mean Li Zhiyuan knows his identity?
Ye Caiping felt somewhat relieved and looked at him with a smile: "Just go if I invite you? Aren't you living in seclusion?"
Shen Zhiyan coughed dryly and looked out the window: “Nothing, go if you want.”
Ye Caiping glanced at him, chuckled, and lowered her head to pour tea.
Master Qian said, "My son said that Mr. Shen also graded his papers, which benefited him a lot. I would like to thank Mr. Shen here."
Shen Zhiyan said calmly: “It’s a small matter.”
Master Qian asked, "I wonder how Xuan'er is doing with his studies now?"
Shen Zhiyan: “It’s OK.”
Master Qian was humbled and sad: "......"
Ye Caiping said: "Although Master Qian only taught Xuan'er for a few short months, he was Xuan'er's most important mentor. If it weren't for his recommendation, we wouldn't have been able to find you."
Shen Zhiyan was startled: "So it was him?"
Ye Caiping tilted her head: "What else?"
Shen Zhiyan placed the tea that Ye Caiping had poured in front of Master Qian and said, "Drink it."
Mr. Qian was flattered and picked up the cup of tea: "Haha, thank you Mr. Shen." Then he lowered his head and drank the tea silently.
Why does he feel that this cup is like a thank-you tea for matchmaking?
After finishing a glass, Shen Zhiyan personally refilled his glass.
Mr. Qian had no choice but to drink another glass.
It’s on again!
Master Qian finally drank three cups in a row and could not drink any more, so he mustered up the courage to ask Shen Zhiyan for advice on Confucian classics.
Shen Zhiyan is very patient and tells you everything he knows.
Ye Caiping listened to them talking about Zhihu and sighed softly. She ate snacks while looking at the scenery outside the window.
It was not until the evening that Master Qian left with a flushed face.
Ye Caiping held her chin and looked out the window, already feeling a little drowsy.
Shen Zhiyan gently woke her up: "Bored?"
Ye Caiping rubbed her sleepy eyes: "Not boring?"
Shen Zhiyan smiled: "It's quite boring. It's so late, how about having dinner before going back?"
"No. I just ate a lot of snacks and I feel full. Let's go home."
Ye Caiping's carriage was parked at Shen's house.
After returning to the Shen family, Ye Caiping got on the carriage, waved to him, and left.
Shen Zhiyan watched quietly until her carriage disappeared before going back.
......
The next day, Ye Caiping went to Ye Lizheng to discuss buying land, and finally bought three acres of land.
He also asked Ye Daquan to bring stones, help buy bricks and tiles, and recruit people.
There is no way, because Ye Daquan is too experienced.
Over the past six months, with the construction of houses and two workshops, Ye Daquan, an old farmer, was forced to become a contractor.
In addition, Ye Caiping also gave Ye Daquan ten taels of silver as a reward for his hard work.
Ye Daquan was reluctant at first, but Ye Caiping said that she would not work for him if she refused, so Ye Daquan had no choice but to accept it.
The glass workshop officially started construction.
At noon, Wang Neng from the furniture workshop gave her the account book and money, and said with a smile:
"Xiao Si pulled out 150 stools today and sold them all. This is 6 taels."
Ye Caiping smiled and said, "Okay. How many of these small stools can be produced in a day?"
Wang Neng said: "Back to the boss, about 400. Now not only has the speed been improved, but the quality has also improved a lot."
"Aunt." Xiaoyan walked in at this time, "Several aunts are outside."
Ye Caiping raised her eyebrows, knowing that the wolf had smelled the scent and came: "Let them in."
Ye Caiping walked to the courtyard, and soon saw six or seven village women rushing over:
"Cai Ping, did Hu Xiaosi get his stool from your house?"
“My family wants the goods too!”
“Give my family 300!”
“I want 500!”
