When the mother and daughter entered, Chen Zongwen was greeting guests. The two of them were reading nearby and did not disturb him.
The customer said, "Boss, why hasn't a relative of mine released any new works recently? I've been waiting for a long time and have even watched "Cooking Summit" several times."
Chen Zongwen replied with a hint of helplessness: "Mr. Zhou, you came to ask as soon as you had time. Really, no, I've told you many times. A relative said that I won't be writing books recently."
"How can he not write? We are all waiting to see his next masterpiece." The man said anxiously.
Li Yu noticed Lin He's teasing gaze, and she was very...
She also didn't expect that she had such a loyal fan of the book.
Chen Zongwen was really at a loss for what to do with this kid: "Sir, everyone has things to do at home, and no one can keep writing stories without taking a break.
This relative said he's had too many things to do at home lately and hasn't had time to write, but he also said he'll write it. "Please don't urge me every day, okay?"
"Okay, I won't rush you. Then tell me who this relative is, and I'll go and meet him, okay?" Li Yu heard that the young man started to ask Chen Zongwen difficult questions again.
Chen Zongwen was almost crying. If the Zhou family was not a wealthy family in the town, he would have kicked this man out long ago.
"My name is Master Zhou. Have you seen the storyteller meeting his readers? He even revealed his real name and address?" Chen Zongwen asked him.
Maybe Zhou Mingyang also felt that he had gone a little too far.
Guilty, he said, "If we don't want to meet, then we can't meet. I'll leave the book with you. When you see him, ask him to sign it for me. I think you can do that, right?"
"Okay, okay, just leave it here. I'll help you talk to him when I see him."
Zhou Mingyang then gave up and planned to go home.
Finally, after getting rid of this ancestor, Chen Zongwen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
As a result, just as the two of them reached the door, Zhou Mingyang turned around suddenly and almost bumped into him.
I just heard him say: "Be sure to remember to ask him to sign for me."
After saying this, he left without waiting for Chen Zongwen to answer.
Chen Zongwen was left standing at the door with a constipated look on his face.
When Chen Zongwen calmed down and turned around, he saw Li Yu and her mother smiling at him in the corner.
"Sister Li, when did you come? Why didn't you say anything?"
"I've been here for a while. Boss Chen, you were busy, so I didn't disturb you." Li Yu said jokingly.
I know Li Yu saw it all.
Chen Zongwen smiled bitterly: "Sister Chen, you have seen it too, right? This young man is the younger brother of Mr. Zhou, the great philanthropist in our town, Mr. Zhou Mingyang and Mr. Zhou Er.
This Mr. Zhou is a fan of story books, and he comes to the bookstore to ask whenever the academy is closed."
Li Yu asked him: "Is it really so popular? This story book."
"Of course not! By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet, sister, on your youngest son's passing the entrance exam. I heard about it.
I was planning to come over to congratulate you tomorrow, but I didn’t expect you to come today.”
Li Yu stopped him.
"No need to come, we will go back to the village tomorrow. We are just students. When my son passes the imperial examination one day, it won't be too late for you to come and bring a generous gift."
Chen Zongwen didn't force it.
He said to Li Yu, "We'll talk about this later. Sister, let's go upstairs and rest for a while. Ah Hu, bring the tea."
Li Yu was flattered: "No need, right? I'll just go around with my third son. He'll buy some paper and pens. No need to go upstairs. You guys get busy."
"A Xiu is back and she's on the second floor. Sister, why don't you go up and take a look?"
…
Ever since Li Yu found out that Qu Xiangbai was the owner of Yunshang Book Pavilion, they haven't met each other yet.
"A Xiang? A girl?" Lin He asked his mother.
I haven't heard his mother say that she's dating a girl outside, the one she's looking for as a wife for his second brother?
Apart from this, he really couldn't think of any other reason why he asked the shopkeeper to tell his mother that Ah Xiang was there and let her go upstairs.
…
Chen Zongwen was even more puzzled.
Li Yu awkwardly explained to Chen Zongwen: "Oh, this kid has been studying at the academy so much that I forgot to tell him about the owner of the library."
After saying that, he turned to Lin He and said, "A Xiang is the owner of Yunshang Bookstore. He's a man named Qu Xiangbai. From now on, you can just call him Mr. Qu."
Lin He finally understood and quickly apologized to Chen Zongwen: "I'm sorry, Boss Chen, it's my fault for being rude."
Of course Chen Zongwen would not blame anyone.
"It's not a big deal. It's okay. He won't worry about it."
As Chen Zongwen led the two of them to the second floor, he said, "Business has been good recently, so I wanted to settle the profit share for the past two months with you, Sister Li.
Ah Xiang is here too. She used to be the favorite disciple of the headmaster of Qingcang Academy. Sister Li, don't you want to introduce her to your youngest son?"
Huh? Is it that awesome?
"Is this true? Is Boss Qu so powerful?" Li Yu was curious.
"Sister Li, what do you think?"
You know what, Li Yu was really moved.
