"Master Yun, your brother is still waiting for you upstairs. If you want to find that woman, I will ask the waiter to notify you immediately the next time she comes to eat."
When Yun Chang heard what Shopkeeper Qian said, his eyes lit up with joy!
"Okay, more money then, shopkeeper."
When Yunchang returned to the private room upstairs, he was in disheveled clothes and with disheveled hair, which really scared Yunxuan!
"Third brother, what have you been doing? Who hit you?!"
Yunchang slumped down on a chair in a daze. The table was already filled with all kinds of delicacies.
But looking at the food, he had no appetite at all.
"Third brother, third brother?"
There were several more soft calls, until Yunxuan took action and gently shook Yunchang, who was immersed in his own pain, and Yunchang's thoughts gradually came back to him.
"ah?"
"Third brother, what were you doing? Didn't you go to the toilet? Why do you look like you were beaten up?
There's blood on the corner of your mouth. What's going on? Who hit you? I'll go find him and argue with him!"
Hearing this, Yun Chang wiped the corner of his mouth, lowered his eyes and saw that there was indeed some blood on his fingers.
"I just went out on the street and was blackmailed by a woman. She held my legs and refused to let go, saying that I was a heartless man who abandoned my wife and daughter. A group of people surrounded me..."
"And then? You didn't even call the authorities? There are so many soldiers patrolling the capital!"
Seeing Yun Chang like this, Yun Xuan didn't know what to say to him.
"No, you were going to the toilet, weren't you? Why are you on the street?!"
Yunxuan suddenly reacted, frowned deeply and asked again in confusion.
"Old Four, when I went downstairs just now, I saw a woman who looked exactly like your third sister-in-law!
No, I should say she looks even prettier than your third sister-in-law did when she was in Yunjia Village.
I can guarantee that it was definitely your sister-in-law. Even though I only saw her from the side and her back, I know that I was definitely not mistaken!"
Hearing this, Yunxuan finally understood why his third brother was like this!
"Third brother, are you kidding me? Is that why you went out to the streets and got blackmailed and beaten?
Third brother, although I know you are deeply in love with your sister-in-law and you had a very good relationship with her, you have to face reality.
You have seen the corpse of the Third Sister-in-law, and you have also confirmed it. How could the Third Sister-in-law come back to life and appear in this capital city?"
Yunxuan knew how deep Yunchang's feelings for his third sister-in-law were. In Yunxuan's eyes, Yunchang now seemed like a completely crazy person.
He thought that the woman Yunchang saw might really be somewhat similar to his deceased third sister-in-law, but it must be because Yunchang missed his third sister-in-law too much.
"Bang, bang!"
Just as Yun Chang was falling into self-doubt about Yun Xuan's words, the door of the private room was suddenly knocked from outside.
Before the two men could speak, two waiters came in. One of them was holding a copper basin and warm water, with a face towel on her wrist, and the other was holding a copper mirror and a dressing box.
This situation completely embarrassed Yunchang!
"Master Yun, our shopkeeper asked me to bring it up for Master Yun to wash."
Seeing the waiter's polite look, Yun Chang stood up quickly and said, "Let it go, that's fine. Thank you very much!"
As if they noticed Yunchang's embarrassment, the two waiters put down the things and retreated.
“Third brother, I know you can’t let go of your third sister-in-law, but it’s been so many years, you have to face reality.
Life is short, I believe even if my sister-in-law is in heaven, she would also hope that you can be happy."
Yunchang walked to the copper basin, picked up the towel and washed his face. When he looked back at Yunxuan, Yunchang's expression gradually calmed down.
Or perhaps it was because he saw himself in the bronze mirror and felt so miserable that his reason forced him to calm down.
"I see, you're right, maybe I was dazzled just now."
After Yunchang washed and tied his hair up again, the two brothers began to enjoy the delicious food on the table.
There is nothing wrong that can’t be solved by a delicious meal. After the meal, Yunchang felt much better.
When it came time to pay the bill, Yunxuan couldn't remain calm when he learned that the meal would cost more than two hundred taels of silver, and that the price was only this much after the discount because Chaoge was a VIP.
Yunchang was mentally prepared. He paid for the meal and also paid the ten taels of silver that the shopkeeper had helped him take out as a means of escape.
After walking out of the restaurant, Yunxuan looked Yunchang up and down in surprise, which made Yunchang feel scared.
"Third brother, you have only been in the capital for a short time, how come you have already learned to be extravagant? If we had known that a meal would cost more than two hundred taels of silver, why didn't we eat something else?
More than two hundred taels! I never thought in my life that I would have a meal that cost more than two hundred taels!
Although the meal was delicious, but, but it made my flesh hurt after eating it now!"
"You heartless man, when did I, your third brother, become a wasteful person? Didn't I bring you here to eat because I didn't take you out for a walk when you came to the capital?
The last time I came here, it was Little Pigeon who brought me here. She said that if you make money, you should learn to enjoy life, otherwise making money would be so boring.
Next time when the little pigeon comes back, just the two of them and I will eat, and you don’t have to come, since you think it’s a waste anyway.”
"No, I won't say anything. If there is a next time, when you want to waste, you can take my brother with you."
As they chatted and laughed, Yunchang's mood became much better.
The two brothers returned to the hot pot restaurant, which was still as popular as it was when it first opened. The shop next door had also been renovated, and Xue Fei went hundreds of miles away to buy back a group of servants.
Even though there are two shops together, there are still not enough seats for customers at night, and the number of table turnovers can still reach more than double.
When he returned to Yun Mansion, the gatekeeper immediately handed Yun Chang an invitation. When he opened it, he found that it was an invitation from Mr. Shen, who had not appeared for a long time.
"Then I'll accompany you to the appointment tomorrow?"
"No need. You have been accompanying me around for the whole day and have delayed your studies. Mr. Shen is a nice guy. I will go by myself tomorrow."
"Okay then, Third Brother, you should go to bed early."
Looking at Yunxuan's departing back, Yunchang, who had been trying hard to cheer himself up, suddenly lost his vitality like an eggplant hit by frost.
That face kept replaying in his mind. Although he said that he might have seen it wrong, at this moment he hoped so much that the person was really the one he had been thinking about day and night!
The next evening, Yunchang went out accompanied by Xue Fei.
The place he and Mr. Shen agreed to meet was the bank of the moat where they first met in Beijing and Chaoge.
As soon as he got off the carriage, Mr. Shen's guards came to meet him, took him and Xue Fei onto the boat, and headed towards the pleasure boat in the middle of the river.
