Chapter 329 Is It Too Expensive?
The people from the Shan family acted very exaggeratedly. Shen Qingqian and the others didn't say anything openly, but some people were muttering in private.
"Why do the people in Mr. Shan's family feel that his cousin, who only just came of age, came all the way from Yuncheng? Isn't this just slowing things down?"
"That's right, no wonder Mr. Shan was so anxious before. Why haven't his family members arrived yet? It turns out that this cousin is holding them back."
"Well, no matter what, that's their business, it has nothing to do with us, let's get back to work."
Shen Qingqian only listened to these words and was soon attracted by the conversation between Shan Mancheng and the others.
"Sir, let's leave today. The master's health is getting worse, and the family is waiting for you to go back." The man who looked like a butler calmed down and spoke.
The attendant also nodded, "Yes, sir, a lot of things have happened at home recently, it's better for us to rush back as soon as possible."
Shan Mancheng ignored them and looked at his cousin with an unhappy look on his face, "Why did you follow me?"
"I'm worried about you, cousin. Have you forgotten that our engagement is in three months?" the cousin said hesitantly.
Shan Mancheng frowned, "There's no such thing as an engagement. It was just a joke from my aunt and mother. I never took it to heart."
"Cousin, how could you do that?" My cousin was about to cry and looked so pitiful.
When Wu saw this, she quickly tried to smooth things over. "Mr. Shan, it's not convenient for you to talk here. Why don't you go into the tent first and talk later?"
She winked as she spoke. There were so many people around watching, and what this cousin was talking about was a private matter, so there was no need to tell these outsiders.
Shan Mancheng's face showed no joy. He nodded to Wu, then signaled his attendants to take his cousin into the tent. He then said to the housekeeper, "I owe the Shen family some money. Go and settle it with the Sixth Young Lady."
The housekeeper was obviously stunned for a moment, then reacted and looked around, "I wonder which one is the Sixth Miss?"
When Shen Qingqian heard that the money was to be settled, she suppressed her excitement and walked forward with a smile, "I am, please excuse me, the manager."
As she spoke, she took off the small notebook she kept at her waist and handed it over.
The butler took it and looked Shen Qingqian over calmly, then said with a smile, "It's not a bother, it's us who should thank you."
"I have made a detailed list of Mr. Shan's expenses during this period. There is a total on the last page. You can calculate whether it is correct." Shen Qingqian reminded.
The housekeeper didn't even raise his head, and there was a smile in his voice, "No, no, I believe the girl will definitely, uh..."
In the middle of his words, he suddenly looked up at Shen Qingqian, his eyes twitching, "Sixth Miss, isn't ten taels of silver too expensive for this bowl of noodles?"
He didn't look closely at first, but when he saw the total of more than one hundred taels, he felt something was wrong and hurried back to look. This look made him wonder if he was dazzled.
"Mr. Shan agreed to it, and the quantity was limited. Now it's all in Mr. Shan's stomach. From now on, not to mention him, even we won't be able to eat it if we want to." Shen Qingqian looked at him innocently and sincerely.
The housekeeper considered it in his heart, and reluctantly gave the silver to Shen Qingqian, and at the same time thanked her, "Thank you for your family's care for my young master during this period."
"Of course, of course. Next time when you are free, Mr. Shan, you are welcome to come and visit us." Shen Qingqian said with a smile, and her movements in collecting the cash were not slow at all.
She was happy collecting the money, but in the tent, something was wrong in the conversation between Dan Mancheng and his cousin.
