Changsheng's wife laughed and said, "Sister Afu is so pretty, not like one of us country girls." Her voice was bright and her laughter was clear. She was really a cheerful woman.
Chen Ahfu's impression of her improved immediately, and he also smiled and said, "Since Second Sister-in-law Wu knows the door, she will come to visit often. My mother and I get along well with First Sister-in-law Wu. Many of the household items in our house were made by Uncle Wu, Big Brother Wu, and Second Brother Wu."
Changsheng's wife smiled and said yes.
Then, Aunt Luo came with Luo Yuan, Wei, and Luo Mingcheng's family. Luo Mei was on duty, so she came with Miss Chu. Then, a few more servants from Tangyuan came, including two children who often played with Dabao.
The guests went to the east wing, the men were in the main room, and the women were in the side room.
Although there is no adult male owner in the house, the men's room is just as lively and full of laughter because of the good social skills of Luo Yuan and the eloquent Hu Laowu.
After that, a few unexpected guests came, Yang Mingyuan, Yang Chao, and Yang Qian. These three were really rare guests. The Yang family gave a double-sided embroidered screen made of chicken wing wood and a potted fig tree.
As soon as Yang Qian saw Chen Afu, she rushed over, hugged her waist and said, "Aunt Chen, I miss you so much, and I miss Dabao, sister Yan'er, uncle Alu, Qiqi, Huihui, Zhuifeng, Wangcai, sister Luo Mei, brother Mingyuan..." and so on, listing everyone she met at the Chen family.
Chen Afu found it a little funny. This little girl was not only a chatterbox, but also had a very good memory.
As soon as Yang Chao arrived, he shouted, "Aunt Chen, Dabao, my sister and I are going to stay at your house for a few more days. I'm going to school soon, so I won't be able to come and play with Dabao often in the future."
Of course Chen Afu said welcome, and she really liked these two children.
There were many children coming this time, and Dabao led them to play in the backyard. The children played so much that they didn’t even want to eat.
After dinner, everyone played for a while, and then the guests left one after another. But the children stayed because they hadn't had enough fun.
Yang Mingyuan didn't leave either. He wanted to inform Chu Lingxuan and Chen Afu, the two shareholders, about the operation of Hongyun Hotpot. Luo Yuan invited him to stay at Luo's house for one night, so he would leave tomorrow.
I heard from Yang Mingyuan that Hongyun Hotpot Restaurant is doing very good business. Although several other hotpot restaurants have opened in Beijing, they have not had much impact on Hongyun Restaurant's business.
The restaurant has earned more than 8,000 taels of silver in the past two months. Yang Mingyuan wants to make more money without distributing dividends, and then open branches in Jiangnan, Jiaodong and other places, and then buy the restaurant shop that is currently rented...
Chen Ahfu couldn't help but smack her lips. She earned more than 8,000 taels of silver in just over two months. She really made money. She also agreed with Yang Mingyuan's idea. Of course, it's better to make money from money.
When the two of them were talking, Luo Yuan and the Wei couple were always there. If they felt that Yang Mingyuan was happy or looked at Chen Afu for a little longer, they would interrupt him, or invite him to have tea, or change the topic.
Around 3 p.m., not only Chu Lingxuan and his daughter came, but even Abbot Lechen came.
Wei first quietly told Chen Afu that Abbot Liaochen might come in the evening, so Chen Afu specifically instructed Aunt Mu and Aunt Zeng to prepare a vegetarian banquet.
Liaochen invited a white marble statue of Guanyin to Fuyuan.
As soon as Yang Qian saw Chu Hanyan, she ran over madly, took her hand and asked, "Sister Yan'er, do you still remember me? Do you miss me? I miss you so much, so much..."
Chu Hanyan actually remembered Yang Qian. She smiled so widely that she only said one word, "I miss you."
Even this one word made Yang Qian hug her and laugh for a long time.
Chu Lingxuan and Yang Mingyuan went to the east wing to chat, accompanied by Dabao. Chen Afu accompanied Lechen to visit the west wing specially prepared for children, and Chu Hanyan and Yang Qian, two little girlfriends, followed them hand in hand.
The five rooms in the west wing are all connected, with uniform brown lacquered wooden floors. Except for the north ear room which has a small door, the other four rooms are separated by colorful carved lattices.
The main hall is an activity room. The middle of the floor is covered with colorful bamboo mats with pictures of rabbits, foxes and other animals on them. There are two square low-legged tables and a few small chairs against the wall.
There are four couches in the north room, which are used for lunch breaks. These couches are also improved, relatively low and short, with baby swallows, baby bears, baby dogs and baby rabbits painted on the baffles. These "babies" are all crawling on the ground, with their fat butts raised and sleeping, looking very cute.
The north wing is the toilet. Even the shapes of the toilet bowls here are unique. One is a fat yellow pumpkin, and the other is a curved red pepper.
When Chu Lingxuan saw the two toilets yesterday, he laughed out loud. Buchen also laughed and chanted a few more Buddhist sutras.
Chu Hanyan and Yang Qian shouted again that they "need to go to the bathroom" and ran to the bathroom with the help of Mother Song and Mother Huang.
Qiqi and Huihui, who had come in at some point, also shouted that they needed to go to the bathroom. Feeling that the two girls were taking too long, they jumped outside the door and shouted, "Come out, come out, or I'll beat you up if you don't come out."
These two little things don’t like to learn good things, but they can learn bad things as soon as they learn them.
Chen Ahfu shook his head. Yang Chao, Luo Mingyuan, Xiao Shitou and other children had been lining up to go to the toilet since this morning, and they even fought over the toilet bucket.
The south room is the study, which has a circle of low-legged tables, a few low-legged chairs, and some building blocks on the table. There is a small cabinet next to it, which contains many toys, books, and the four treasures of the study.
The south wing is the dining room, furnished with two small square tables on low legs and a few small chairs.
The walls, tables, chairs, cabinets, beds, and some of the furnishings here are all brightly colored and exaggerated in shape. Moreover, the sash windows in these rooms are lower than normal sash windows, making the room very bright.
Actually, when Dabao went to school, Chen Afu only had one student, Miss Chu, so there was no need to make it so complicated and extravagant. But the money to build this courtyard was provided by Chairman Chu, who wanted Miss Chu to live and study in a good environment. Chen Afu felt that the "teaching building" must be built better to highlight that she was using the money for the intended purpose.
After a tour around the house, Abbot Liaochen was so excited that he could not understand why a house could be decorated like this.
She finally understood why her son, who had never wanted to find a wife, was so obsessed with Chen Afu. She also understood why even Master Wuzhi looked at her differently. This girl was incredibly smart.
Afterwards, they visited the children's playground in the backyard, where Yang Chao, Luo Mingyuan, Zhuifeng and Wangcai were having fun. Chu Hanyan and Yang Qian saw this and ran over.
Liaochen and Chen Afu sat under the tree and watched the children play. The children's laughter made Chen Afu's mood as happy as a stream swept by the breeze. Since her last life, she has always hoped that her home would be filled with children's laughter, and now it has finally been done. Although none of these children are her own, she is also very happy. There will be, there will always be...
