Chapter 48: Lan Yin Xu Guo
"If we want to run the inn, it will take more than just the three of us women."
As he spoke, Xu Miaomiao touched the little girl's head and said, "I think they are both good, so I bought them back to make a little servant."
"No way." Gu Yuanniang said in surprise: "This boy looks okay, but this little girl is a little young."
Xu Miaomiao nodded, squatted down and looked at the little girl and slowly said: "How old are you this year?"
The little girl was a little uneasy. She looked at her brother beside her and timidly said, "Ten, thirteen years old."
"Thirteen years old, and so small?" Gu Yuan's mother widened her eyes in surprise, feeling a little sad in her heart. This child must have suffered so much to be so malnourished.
Xu Miaomiao looked at the boy thoughtfully: "What about you?"
"Sixteen."
The boy spoke loudly and looked at Xu Miaomiao without any fear.
"I have a business deal I want to discuss with you. Would you like to listen?" Xu Miaomiao said.
The boy tilted his head in confusion. He was penniless, so what did this woman want to talk to him about?
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xu Miaomiao said as they walked: "You work as a handyman in my inn. Your sister is young, how about I support her to go to school?"
Hearing the word "study", the little girl's eyes lit up, and the boy looked at Xu Miaomiao suspiciously: "Why should I trust you?"
"I bought both of you, and you don't have any tattoos, so what do I want from you?"
As soon as the voice fell, the boy thought about it and nodded: "What do I need to do."
Looking at the little kid in front of her, Xu Miaomiao was distracted for a moment. This guy is a bit similar to Dabao.
"Weiwei, come here." Xu Miaomiao said to the person at the front desk.
Song Weiwei took down the brush in her dissatisfied mouth, raised her head impatiently from the abacus and walked over slowly: "What's wrong?"
"From now on, he will learn how to do accounting from you. If we have anything to do at night, he can help light the lamps. If the guests need anything, he can take care of them."
As soon as Xu Miaomiao finished speaking, Song Weiwei stared at the little boy and said, "Then I am also half your master. Call me and let me hear it."
Unexpectedly, the boy turned his head to the side and said stubbornly: "No."
"You guy!" Song Weiwei said dissatisfiedly to him.
"Okay, okay." Xu Miaomiao mediated and said, "What's your name?"
The boy lowered his head, his long eyelashes hiding the emotions in his eyes, and said in a lost tone: "I, don't have a name."
The girl blinked and smiled at Xu Miaomiao: "Yes, the previous buyers called us bastards."
Xu Miaomiao felt extremely sad, and touched the girl's head distressedly. After thinking for a while, she looked at the two of them and said, "Then, the girl will be named Lan Yin, and the boy will be named Xu Guo."
"Lan Yin? That sounds nice." The little girl grinned, and her cheerful look made Xu Miaomiao smile as well.
"Hahaha, then I will call you Xiaoguozi from now on." Song Weiwei laughed out loud and looked at the boy and wanted to touch his head but was avoided.
Xu Guo's teeth were chattering as he looked at Song Weiwei and said, "Don't call me that!"
"Xiao Guozi, hurry up and follow your master to learn how to manage accounts." Song Weiwei said as she walked to the side.
The boy followed behind him and said unhappily, "Don't call me that!"
Xu Miaomiao chuckled and turned to look at Gu Yuanniang: "Sixth Mother, you have a lot of acquaintances in this town, see if you can find a good private school for Lan Yin."
"Hey, I really know a family." Gu Yuanniang said as she wiped the water stains on her hands: "I can still talk to that teacher. I will go and ask him today."
"Thank you for your help, Liu Niang."
"Oh no." Gu Yuan's mother held Lan Yin's hand and waved her hand nonchalantly, "We are a family, why would we bother talking about anything?"
Xu Miaomiao watched the two people leaving, glanced at Song Weiwei who was bullying Xu Guo, and laughed.
"Waiter, bring up your good wine quickly."
The man touched the corner of his mouth, walked into the store with heavy steps, found a seat and sat down.
Xu Miaomiao walked closer with the menu, only to find that it was her acquaintance Wang Buren.
"Oh, who was it?" Wang Bu Ren saw Xu Miaomiao and said sarcastically, "Everyone says that there is a lady Xu who opened an inn by herself, and the wine in it is even more amazing. I didn't expect it to be you."
"Haha." Xu Miaomiao said slowly: "What do you want, sir?"
"No hurry, no hurry." Wang Bu Ren opened the fan in his hand, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "You are really amazing, woman. You cheated me before when dividing the cotton field, but now you are doing very well in the market."
"It's all the guests' appreciation. I don't dare to take credit for it."
"Don't try that on me." Wang Bu Ren looked at Xu Miaomiao angrily, "You black-hearted bitch, you deceived me and yet you are still doing so well. I wonder if your husband lying in bed will wake up in anger when he knows that you are out in public with men every day, hahahaha."
Xu Miaomiao frowned and watched the man put away the menu: "Mr. Wang, are you here to pick a fight or have a drink today?"
"Of course I'm here to drink." Wang Bu Ren responded, "Bring me all the fine wine you have, and two more delicious dishes."
"Okay, wait a moment."
Xu Miaomiao turned around and sighed. This Wang Bu Ren was really difficult to deal with.
After the food and drinks he ordered were served, Xu Miaomiao just breathed a sigh of relief when he was called over again.
"Mr. Wang, what's wrong?"
"What else?" Wang Bu Ren pointed at a fly in the bowl and said, "Your food is not clean."
As soon as these words were spoken, the guests around stretched their heads curiously to look at Xu Miaomiao.
Xu Miaomiao looked at the fly in the bowl and said, "This is not in our wine. It must have flown in later."
"So you mean I put it in there myself!"
Xu Miaomiao did not want to argue with him. She took out the fly and said to everyone, "Please look, the back of this fly is wet, but the top is not. If the fly in our wine was turned over and over, how could it be wet on only one side? This is obviously a frame-up!"
Xu Miaomiao's voice echoed in the store, and everyone looked at Wang Buren with some contempt. Everyone had seen what kind of person Wang Buren was. Plus, they had never eaten anything unclean at Xu Miaomiao's place, so they all tended to side with Xu Miaomiao.
"Xu Miaomiao, you!" Wang Buren threw down his chopsticks angrily, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said fiercely: "I sue you. For today and the cotton field incident that day, I, Wang Buren, will get my revenge one day."
Xu Miaomiao was not afraid of power, and said with an unchanged expression: "I, Xu Miaomiao, have a clear conscience. I am waiting for whatever Mr. Wang wants to do to me."
Looking at the woman's appearance, Wang Bu Ren turned away angrily and bumped into Gu Yuanniang who was returning.
