Chapter 199 Big Day

The few of them no longer wanted to wander around and hurried back to the inn.

Bo Yuan looked at Fu Da's back, which was covered with scars and looked very ugly.

"Why do you have so many scars?"

"We are people who travel the world and learn martial arts. This little scar is nothing. This is the merit of being a martial artist."

Bo Yuan didn't know where to start.

"The person who splashed water is indeed extremely wicked. Fortunately, you are tough and resilient. If you were someone like Dong Jia and Bai Ling, you would have been badly beaten."

Fu Da smiled slightly.

"You are the same."

"I'm different from them. I'm a man. Like you said, getting hurt is a credit."

"So," Fu Da turned his head and looked at Bo Yuan steadily. "The injuries on your body are also your merits, or are they your shame?"

Bo Yuan paused for a moment as he was applying medicine to Fu Da.

"No one is born to be nailed to the pillar of shame. In this world, everyone can choose their own fate. I am also lucky. I can follow the boss and finally live like a human being."

Fu Da was silent for a while.

"I will never let you suffer this shame again."

Bo Yuan smiled with a pale face.

"I like everyone being together. No one cares about who was born. Dongjia was a poor person before, but now she has pulled us poor people out of the mud and given us a new life. I am grateful. So, for her, I am willing to do anything. This time, it is not a shame, but a dividing line between the past and the future."

Fu Da nodded in agreement.

"You are right. Chen Dongjia is a woman of affection and righteousness. Whatever you do for her is right."

Fu Da continued to ask him.

"Boyuan, do you like Bailing?"

Bo Yuan was silent.

"We are just family members and very good friends in private."

"Why don't you dare admit it?"

Bo Yuan shook his head.

"Not all likes need to be reciprocated. Bailing just likes to play with me. She has no romantic feelings for me. I am not worthy of her. Besides, Bailing once told me that she would stay with her elder sister and never marry."

"Why would she think that?"

"She once told me that Yuanxi's death was a huge blow to the Dong family, and she was depressed for a long time. Bailing said that if she got married, there would be no one to comfort the Dong family or talk to them in private."

Both of them were silent.

"This is also good. Bailing doesn't want to get married. As long as the boss doesn't mind me being a burden, I will always stay by her side, and also by Bailing's side. Living a life like this is also a happy thing. People don't necessarily have to get married and have children. There are too many people in this world who follow the rules, and they may not necessarily live right."

Fu Da didn't say anything, just stared at him blankly.

Yes, not all likes should be responded to.

The next day, they were about to arrive at Huaizhou City, and they rested for a night in a small town around the city, preparing to inquire about the affairs of the tea house.

The tea house has two general managers, and in recent years, all the transit transportation of tea has been in charge.

One is called Zhang Huai and the other is called Chi Wei.

They were sitting in the tavern, and Bo Yuan was chatting with the waiter.

"Waiter, I heard that you have a Yuming Tea House here, and the tea is very famous. I am a tea merchant from another place, and I came here because of its reputation."

The enthusiastic waiter said with a smile.

"Sir, you have asked the right person. The largest tea merchant in Huaizhou is Yuming Tea House. It is said that they ship out hundreds of thousands of kilograms of tea every year. They own several tea gardens and are willing to spend money to hire people. If I could read, I would definitely go to the tea house to make a living."

Several people smiled.

"Do you know their boss?"

The waiter shook his head.

"How can we see such a person?"

"Then who is the manager here? Do you know?"

"There were two managers, one of whom was not submissive to the other. One was rich and bought a house and visited brothels, while the other was talented and upright. It is said that one time, in order to protect the tea leaves from being wetted by the rain on the road, he took off his straw raincoat and covered the tea cart with it, and he himself was soaked to the skin..."

Chen Shiyi couldn't help but ask.

"How do you, a waiter, know all this?"

"It's spread all over Huaizhou."

Several people looked at each other.

Bai Ling gave the waiter a reward.

"You should get busy now."

The waiter smiled happily.

"Okay, everyone, eat and drink well. If you need anything, feel free to tell me."

Chen Shiyi took a piece of braised fish from the bowl and said meaningfully.

"I never thought that this small tea house in Huaizhou could be home to such a talented person!"

Bo Yuan asked in confusion.

"What do you think, Boss?"

"I don't have any great ideas, I just left it alone."

In Qingshi Town, Fu Ruiming tidied up his shirt at home. He adjusted his hair bun again and again to make sure there were no mistakes before leaving.

Today is a big day.

The boss of Yuming Tea House is finally coming.

In the past few years, we have only heard of him but never seen him, which makes him very mysterious.

I heard that the eldest daughter-in-law is a woman, but I don't know the details about the others.

However, today is also his big day.

The steward Chi said that he would introduce himself to the master today.

He was spotted by the manager Chi two years ago, who made him start as a lowly assistant in the tea house. He worked diligently and conscientiously step by step, not daring to slack off for even a moment, and finally managed to get himself into the position of clerk. As his position got higher, his salary also increased.

He never thought that at such a young age, he could get the salary of a shopkeeper somewhere else.

He is the pride of his family and the dream marriage partner of many girls in the town.

People were coming and going in the teahouse, and he was not the first to arrive.

Normally at this time of day, he would be the first one to arrive, but today was special and no one wanted to lose their job on such an important day.

"Quick, why haven't you cleaned up the fallen leaves on the ground over there?"

"Put the chairs in place. Is the tea ready?"

"Has everyone in the theater arrived?"

"The food at Baishanlou needs to be carefully checked again to make sure there are no mistakes."

Fu Ruiming was also constantly checking the things he needed to pay attention to. Someone shouted that the boss had arrived, and everyone swarmed towards the door.

On a sedan chair carried by eight people, a woman was sitting with her backrest leaning against it, looking dignified yet lazy.

She had her hair in a long bun, wore a jade hairpin, and was wearing a fine blue shirt with intricate embroidery. In the cool breeze, the hem of her skirt fluttered like ripples on a lake.

Her face was as white as jade, her eyes were slightly open, and her aura was instantly majestic and powerful, as if she was accustomed to life and death, intrigue and deception. Her confidence and composure, when her extremely beautiful eyes swept over people, made people feel awe and chill.

This is definitely the aura of a superior.

Fu Ruiming only dared to take a quick glance and then lowered his head respectfully.

He stood behind the crowd, watching the boss being helped down from the sedan chair by a yellow-dressed maid. Behind him was a very handsome young man in red and a knight in black holding a sword.
