Chapter 137 Yuan Xi Gets Married

The days passed by so dull.

Li Yunzhou's ex-husband Yin Cheng never came to make trouble again. No one knew what he was thinking. Maybe he had given up.

The man who liked Yuanxi asked a matchmaker to propose marriage, which was a great event for Lingyu Villa.

Chen Shiyi hasn't been this happy for a long time.

Chen Shiyi had met that man several times before. He was a little shy in front of her, but in front of Yuanxi, he was very cheerful and sweet-talking, and often made Yuanxi laugh.

The man's surname is Xin and his given name is Fang Yun. He lives in Caixing Town, Mingyue County. His family is considered wealthy, with dozens of acres of fertile land. He raises chickens, ducks, and pigs, and he also runs a grocery store in the town...

Chen Shiyi asked Yuanxi.

"Do you like him very much?"

Yuan Xi nodded shyly but firmly.

"like."

Chen Shiyi smiled with relief.

"As long as you like, do they have a house in Star Town?"

Yuanxi shook his head.

"No, in town, they live behind the shop."

"Then I will buy you a larger house in Caixing Town as your new home. It will be big enough for you to live in after you have children."

Yuanxi shook his head quickly.

"Sister, this is too expensive."

Chen Shiyi tucked Yuanxi's hair behind her ears and chuckled.

"Why is it expensive? My Yuanxi is my lucky star, and has been working hard to help me with the Lingyu Villa. What's a house? Besides, I will also buy you a rich dowry. This will give you confidence. When you get married, no one will dare to look down on you..."

Yuanxi was very moved.

She leaned on Chen Shiyi's shoulder, her eyes red.

"Sister, I never thought I could live like this."

"Yeah, I never thought about that either..."

On the day Yuanxi got married, Chen Shiyi personally put a red veil on her head.

Deep love, hand in hand, spend the rest of your life together, full and happy...

Li Yunzhou approached Chen Shiyi and comforted her as she was crying.

"Yuanxi married a good man, you should be happy."

Chen Shiyi cried even harder.

Over the past few years, they have been through thick and thin together and have gone through hardships together. They are not family, but they are better than family.

How can I not cry when I see my loved ones finding their own happiness and belonging?

The tea shop in Kyoto opened as promised.

I thought it would take at least a year for a newly opened shop, especially one selling new tea, to become well-known in Kyoto.

Unexpectedly, on the opening day, half of the tea in the shop was sold out, which made the shopkeeper smile from ear to ear.

"Boss, this is a good sign!"

Chen Shiyi smiled and nodded.

"Yes, remember to coordinate with Xuwen on the subsequent matters. Tea is something that is imported, so you must remember that quality is our only creed in this business."

On the way, Chen Shiyi and Bailing sat in the carriage, preparing to return to Yanzhou.

"Sister, Xu Wen is really getting more and more capable. The location of the tea shop is really good. Dorayaki Street is the most prosperous street in Kyoto."

Chen Shiyi said with a smile.

“The shop owner spends the most money.”

"It's your business anyway. If the shop continues to do well, it will be icing on the cake."

Chen Shiyi nodded in agreement.

Bailing asked again in confusion.

"Sister, you've made enough money. It's more than many families can make in several lifetimes. Qinyunlou can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver a year. Why did you add the tea business? It's so hard work."

Chen Shiyi was stunned for a moment and said.

"I don't know. I think it would be better if I was busy. Besides, if I had more money, I would have more confidence."

"That's true."

"I was thinking that if the tea business is successful, I will open tea shops in various prefectures and cities. If I can expand the tea business to every corner of Daye, your sister will be satisfied for the rest of her life."

"Well, I'll just stay with my sister and enjoy my life from now on, and I won't go anywhere else."

Chen Shiyi and Bailing had a good laugh.

"Come with me to the bank."

"What are you going to the bank for?"

"Deposit money."

After coming out of Tianxin Money House, Chen Shiyi had a bronze medal in his hand.

She called Fu Xuwen.

"Xu Wen, please take some time to deliver this token and password to Lord Pei, the county magistrate of Yougu County, and tell him that if he needs money, he can go to Tianxin Bank to get it. There is also a Tianxin Bank in Huaizhou. In addition, we have a station in Huaizhou City. All our tea is transported from Huaizhou to various places to open up sales channels. Train more people, especially guards. We must choose good ones to raise. Remember, personal safety is the most important..."

After Fu Xuwen left, Li Yunzhou trained two very good people for Chen Shiyi.

One is called Chang Yi and the other is called Jing Ran.

Chang Yi is a person who loves to laugh and speaks sweetly and warmly. Even if the judge from the underworld comes, he will drink a pot of tea before leaving.

Jing Ran, on the contrary, is a man of few words, but he is rigorous, meticulous, and calculating in his accounts. He always has different opinions on the news passed on by Fu Xuwen.

Chen Shiyi was very satisfied with these two people.

"Yuanxi is married now, and she has her own things to do. I estimate that the time she spends in Lingyu Villa will be getting shorter and shorter. So let Changyi stay in the villa to supervise all matters of the workshop. As for Jingran, he will work with you in the back. When the tea house in Huaizhou is ready, let him run around with Xuwen outside to reduce Xuwen's workload. Otherwise, he will have to work very hard."

Li Yunzhou agreed.

"Has Yin Cheng come to see you?"

Chen Shiyi noticed that Li Yunzhou looked a little worried recently.

Li Yunzhou sighed.

"I have. I have searched for it three times."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"You can't be worried about this kind of thing all the time. You've been busy running the tea shop lately, and you're already very busy. Why do you need to worry about such a small matter as mine?"

"How can you say it's a small matter? Why did he come to you? Did he really regret it? Or was it for something else?"

Li Yunzhou smiled bitterly.

"Why else? They have two shops, a cloth shop and a grain and oil shop. The business used to be OK, but recently, several tailors from the cloth shop left. The goods from the grain and oil shop were not sold out in time. Many goods were not stored properly and became moldy. The loss was huge. I used to be the head clerk of a silver shop, and later I let him run these two shops. I didn't expect that they would fail after I left..."

Chen Shiyi was also puzzled.

"He knew that these two shops couldn't do without you, so why did he write you a divorce letter and kick you out of the house?"

"He hid from me that he had a mistress outside, and that mistress said she was also a good shopkeeper. I had a quarrel with him about the mistress at the time, and he got angry and divorced me on the grounds of jealousy. And you also know that a divorced woman cannot return to her parents' home, so I went through so much trouble and suffered all the way to marry you..."

Chen Shiyi was also very emotional.

"In this world, we have to rely on men, but men are also the most unreliable."

Li Yunzhou agrees.

"Boss, when a girl is young, she is registered under her father's name. When she gets married, she is registered under her husband's name. When she gets old, she will be registered under her son's name. There are probably not many girls like you in the world..."

Chen Shiyi was very surprised.

"Will you get married in the future?"

Li Yunzhou nodded.

"Of course I have to get married, otherwise what will happen to Mu Yan in the future? I still rely on you to live a more comfortable life. If not, I don't know what the end will be. Maybe I will regret it somewhere, why I couldn't accept the fact that Yin Cheng had a concubine outside, maybe I wouldn't have to live so sadly..."

Chen Shiyi sighed.

"Boss, you don't have to be so sad. At most you can just follow me from now on. Can I really take away your money?"

Li Yunzhou said with a smile.

"Boss, if only things were that simple."
