Chapter 61 Chapter 61 Wuwang’s mung bean soup has not been bought yet…
Wuwang's mung bean soup had not been bought yet, but Shen Xuan had already put on his clothes and opened the door to invite Xue Fenglin in.
Shen Xuan is tall, and the mole between his eyebrows is very dark.
He originally looked like a man, and now that he was wearing scholar's clothes, he looked even less like a man. Instead, he looked like a handsome young scholar.
Xue Fenglin's clothes were a little big for Shen Xuan, making his waist look slimmer and adding a touch of sexiness.
When Xue Fenglin saw him dressed like this, with a strand of hair hanging down from his temples, he felt a sense of taboo, which made him feel itchy. The anger that had just been suppressed was brewing again.
"Are you still hungry?" In order to relieve his impulse, Xue Fenglin took the initiative to ask.
Just now, Shen Xuan and he were halfway through their meal when they overturned the soup bowl, and they didn't know if they were full or not.
“I just ate a lot, I’m not hungry anymore.” Shen Xuan said hurriedly.
He then remembered the main purpose of his visit, took out the bamboo box containing the soap, placed it in front of Xue Fenglin and said, "I called you out this time because I wanted to show you this."
Shen Xuan pushed the bamboo box towards Xue Fenglin. Xue Fenglin saw the word "Xuan" on it, with delicate and elegant fonts. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did you write this word yourself?"
Shen Xuan nodded, and sure enough, Xue Fenglin saw it at a glance.
When Xue Fenglin opened the lid of the bamboo box, he smelled a refreshing fragrance.
He picked up a piece of paper at random and took a look. He saw words printed on it, with the names of various flowers and plants written on it. He opened the paper and saw the soap wrapped inside.
"Is this soap?" Xue Fenglin was a little surprised and held the soap up to the candlelight to examine it carefully.
"Soap." Shen Xuan told him, "It's made with essential oils or juices from various flowers and plants."
"Did you make it too?" Xue Fenglin glanced at Shen Xuan's expression, then put down the soap in his hand and said with certainty: "The word Xuan on the package is in a suitable font. Such a delicate thing should be matched with such a delicate font."
"Do you want to sell these soaps?" Xue Fenglin asked again.
Shen Xuan and he had known each other for a long time, so he could naturally guess what Shen Xuan was thinking.
Such a good soap will surely be very popular when sold. Only someone as clever and skillful as Shen Xuan could come up with this idea.
"I want to open another shop to sell some cosmetics that girls and boys like." Shen Xuan said to Xue Fenglin, "This soap is just one of them. When the soap sells well and the shop becomes famous, I will add some other creams and powders."
Xue Fenglin nodded and said, "It is indeed feasible. The soap business in Dajin is not small, but this kind of soap is the first time I have seen it. The officials' wives and children must like it very much."
Hearing Xue Fenglin praising his soap, Shen Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "Xue Fenglin, do you want to invest in my shop?"
Xue Fenglin was stunned, this was the first time Shen Xuan took the initiative to invite him to invest in his business.
Then, Shen Xuan said with a slightly red face: "I want to open a shop on Zijin Street, but I'm still a little short of start-up capital. If you invest, I'll give you 50% of the dividends."
"I think this business is profitable, and I don't want to let outsiders get the advantage."
Shen Xuan's words of not wanting to benefit outsiders made Xue Fenglin feel comfortable all over.
Shen Xuan is very business-minded. His shop, Xianwei, makes a lot of money, so he can open a new shop sooner or later. He came to me today specifically to invest because he has long regarded me as his wife.
Just looking at his attitude, he is very cautious. Obviously he was afraid that if he suddenly withdrew the money, he would make himself unhappy.
Xue Fenglin didn't speak for a long time. When Shen Xuan thought he wanted to refuse, he suddenly stood up and said, "Wait a minute, I'll be back in a while."
Shen Xuan sat at the table for a while, thinking that he had just asked for money so directly, did he scare Xue Fenglin a little?
He felt a little regretful. Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly. He and Xue Fenglin had just expressed their feelings to each other, and now he came directly to talk about money. Wasn't it too much?
After a while, Xue Fenglin returned to the house, holding a golden nanmu box in his hands.
He placed the box on the table and said to Shen Xuan, "This is my property. Just click on it and take whatever you want. You will be in charge of keeping it from now on."
"Ah?" Shen Xuan was completely stunned. He was still unable to react as he looked at the box.
Xue Fenglin saw this and pushed the box in front of Shen Xuan, opened it for him and said, "There are land, shops and some banknotes inside. In addition, there are ten thousand taels of gold stored somewhere else, which is clearly recorded in the account book."
"Most of these are the assets my mother left me, and a small part is what I bought myself. Although it's not a lot, I still need it in Beijing."
Chen Xuan took a look and saw a thick stack of land deeds and house deeds in the box, and he didn't know how much they were worth.
There was a whole bundle of silver bills worth one thousand taels lying on the table.
He broke out in a cold sweat and immediately closed the box. He pushed it back in front of Xue Fenglin and said, "I can't take it."
"Why not?" Xue Fenglin frowned and asked, "You and I will be husband and wife sooner or later, so what's wrong with you being the manager in advance? Are you still hesitating?"
"This is too much." Shen Xuan said with cold sweat on his forehead: "Besides...Aren't you and I not married yet?"
"You are still hesitating." Xue Fenglin's face darkened when he heard that, and he was obviously unhappy.
He thought that if he gave these properties to Shen Xuan, he would trust him more and no longer have to negotiate with him carefully for a little money. Unexpectedly, this made Shen Xuan shrink back, and his words were full of alienation.
"Forget it. If I was still the same as before in Yunshui Village, or if I was just the son of a wealthy businessman, would you still shirk your responsibility like this?" Xue Fenglin said to Shen Xuan, "When I was penniless and my appearance was ruined, you never looked down on me because I had nothing. Now, on the contrary, you don't trust me because of my status as a prince."
Xue Fenglin looked very disappointed and waved his hand with a tired look on his face.
Shen Xuan saw that Xue Fenglin's temper had subsided, and he could see that he was unhappy.
Xue Fenglin treated him so well that Shen Xuan was touched, but the more Xue Fenglin gave, the more Shen Xuan felt that he could not repay him.
"Xue Fenglin, there is a difference in our status. The more you treat me like this, the more afraid I am. I can't afford to pay you back." Shen Xuan thought for a while before confessing to Xue Fenglin.
His heart ached, and his throat choked before he said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. It's just that the more I like you, the more I don't know what to do."
Shen Xuan's eyes were moist, and when he talked about the urgent situation, they became a little wet.
Xue Fenglin saw it, and the evil fire in his heart had long since disappeared.
He swallowed hard before saying, "If you're really afraid that you can't repay my kindness to you, then just pay me more interest on weekdays."
"What interest?" Shen Xuan was stunned and asked Xue Fenglin.
The next second, he could no longer ask anything, but was directly grabbed by Xue Fenglin's waist and pressed down to block his lips and tongue.
Xue Fenglin took action himself and asked Shen Xuan harshly if he had collected the interest.
The two of them were originally sitting at the eight-immortal table, but as they were collecting the interest, they went back to the couch.
This time, Xue Fenglin was not as gentle and affectionate as he was last time in Qingliang Pavilion. Instead, he collected his debt harshly.
Shen Xuan's tongue was a little painful from sucking so much, and he covered his swollen lips and said, "If you keep messing around, my mouth won't heal in three days, and Mother You will definitely notice it when I go back!"
Xue Fenglin was stunned, but he curled his lips and said, "My husband is right. I won't touch this conspicuous place."
After saying that, he did not let Shen Xuan go, but received the interest somewhere else...
Shen Xuan felt a chill on his body, and the outer scholar's clothing was half pulled up to his waist. Then he felt Xue Fenglin's hair crown rubbing against his neck, which made him feel itchy and tingling.
He exclaimed, a breath escaping from his lips. He wanted to dodge, but Xue Fenglin chased him back and pinned him down on the couch.
"Mother You can't see this place. Since you feel you can't pay me back, you should consciously pay back the interest!" Xue Fenglin was at ease and even had time to chat and laugh with Shen Xuan.
"Is this the interest you mentioned?" Shen Xuan was so angry at his twisted logic that he almost laughed.
But Xue Fenglin nodded seriously and said, "What else? I see you like it very much too."
"How could I like it?" Shen Xuan retorted.
Her body softened in Xue Fenglin's hands. He pinched her chin and said, "You still say you don't like it? Look, I just touched you and your eyes are wet."
…
This meal of interest passed unknowingly. At 5 p.m., Shen Xuan was tormented enough. After putting on his scholar's clothes again, he felt a burning discomfort somewhere in his upper body.
Fortunately, Xue Fenglin still had some sense and did not go any further. After Shen Xuan had packed up, he opened the door and asked Wuwang to bring in the mung bean soup he had bought.
There is mung bean soup to drink in the middle of winter? Shen Xuan was a little surprised.
But he was a little hungry at this time, and the sweet mung bean soup was just right to quench his thirst.
After he and Xue Fenglin had their mung bean soup, Xue Fenglin said to him, "It's getting late. It may not be safe to go back now. Let's rest here tonight and leave early tomorrow morning."
Shen Xuan raised his eyes and glanced at Xue Fenglin, with a defensive look on his face. Xue Fenglin said, "Don't worry, before we get married, I will only charge you the interest, not the principal."
Shen Xuan: “…”
The interest rate charged is really too high!
Since Mother You was not there, Shen Xuan did not need to rush back to the mansion, so he simply stayed in Plum Blossom Lane for one night.
Xue Fenglin rushed back to the Imperial College at night and did not stay here.
The next morning, Shen Xuan slept until noon. Then Jinzhi and Jingui knocked on the door and came in, filling the eight-immortals table in the room with breakfast.
Chen Xuan did not return home last night, and Jin Zhi and Jin Gui were already very surprised.
However, Wuxin had already talked to them in advance and told them not to reveal anything in front of Shen Xuan.
After Shen Xuan had breakfast, Wu Xin brought a pile of clothes over and said, "Brother Shen, these are the clothes that the prince asked me to bring."
Shen Xuan took a look and found that it was the same outfit he wore yesterday, which had been washed and ironed.
He changed into the clothes again, and then he saw Wuxin holding a box and coming forward and said, "Brother Chen, this is what the prince asked me to prepare this morning and give it to you."
What on earth could have made Wuxin go out so early in the morning to handle this? Shen Xuan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the box was only the size of a palm and was not what Xue Fenglin had stuffed into him last night.
He opened the box and saw a deed inside. When he opened it, he found that it was a shop on the Gold Throwing Street.
The deed paper stated that it was the second shop in Baihua Lane, Zijin Street. The ink on it has not yet dried, obviously it was signed not long ago.
Chen Xuan looked at the address on the deed and thought about the area near Baihua Lane on Zijin Street, but he didn't know where it was.
Fortunately, the name on the contract paper was Xue Fenglin's, not his own, so Shen Xuan felt relieved.
"Brother Chen." Wu Xin suddenly stepped forward and said, "The prince has something to tell you personally. He said that this shop is rented to you, and the monthly rent will be counted as interest."
Wu Xin didn't know what the interest that Xue Fenglin was talking about was. He just felt that the prince had always treated Chen Ge'er very well. But this time, for some reason, he bought a shop specially for Chen Ge'er, but suddenly said that he wanted to charge him interest.
When Shen Xuan heard this, his face turned red, he rolled his eyes fiercely, and snapped the box shut before saying, "Go tell the prince that you should owe the interest first!"
After saying this, he hurried away in a carriage. Leaving behind Wuxin's somewhat confused back...
I don’t know whether I should tell the prince or not, Brother Chen seems angry.
