After eating some snacks and drinking some wine, I chatted with Old Man He about random things.
About an hour later, when it was getting dark, Uncle Niu brought a group of people into the tavern.
Jia Youcai took a quick look and saw that except for one woman, all the others were men, some older and some young and strong. He counted ten people in total.
What was noticeable was of course the woman among the men. Jia Youcai took a few more glances and thought it must be Chen Xueru from Xueru Silk Shop.
She was close by, and since she was wearing a cheongsam, she didn't look like anyone else here, but she loved to join in the fun.
It’s just that she is still a little young at this time and lacks the charm and allure of a mature woman. The mature Chen Xueru who will come later is a real rouge horse.
It seems that I will have to rely on myself to teach him in the future.
At this time, Chen Xueru was also looking at Jia Youcai curiously.
Just now in the silk shop, Chen Xueru, who loved to join in the fun, heard Uncle Niu who came to the shop talking about the bet in the tavern. She immediately became interested, instructed the shop assistants, and wanted to follow and take a look.
Now her father has handed over the management of the store to her. Her father is in poor health and is recuperating at home.
Chen Xueru is not very old now, just a little over 50 years old. Looking at the person that Niu Ye was talking about, she found that his clothes were all patched, he looked ordinary, not very tall, and a little thin.
It was obvious that he was from the countryside, and he dared to brag as soon as he arrived in the city. Chen Xueru thought he was some kind of extraordinary person.
Just like that, Chen Xueru took a look and wanted to leave. She had lost interest, but just as she was about to turn around, she heard the man speak, and it was directed at her.
"Hey, they're here. There are only so few of us. Master Niu, you look down on us. Not only are there few of us, but you also brought a little girl with you. What's the matter? All the men who can drink in Daqianmen are dead, and you dragged a little girl here to make up the number. Are you guys okay with that?
Look at this little girl, she's pretty, but I'm afraid she's not very smart. We're a bunch of old men having a drinking competition, why are you joining in the fun? You're so young, but you're out having fun here. Do your family know? Get out of here right now."
Chen Xueru got angry when she heard this. This country bumpkin said in a sarcastic tone who was the little girl.
Ever since Chen Xueru's father fell ill, she took over the silk shop and made the business more and more prosperous. In the Qianmen area, no merchant didn't know Chen Xueru. Although she was young, she was as good as any man in business. No one didn't praise the old man of the Chen family for being lucky to have a good daughter.
As time went on, her already competitive nature became even more complacent, and she didn't feel at all that as a girl, she was no match for these stinky men.
Unexpectedly, she met a country bumpkin who looked down on her, Chen Xueru, and didn't even bother to ask around. She not only did a good business, but her alcohol tolerance was also as good as anyone else's.
Before she could open her mouth to ridicule the country bumpkin, Niu Ye was displeased: "Hey, boy, how can you talk like that? This girl is Chen Xueru, the owner of the Xueru Silk Shop in front. I'm not here to compete with you in drinking. I just heard that there is a lunatic here, so I followed to see what's going on.
Don't look down on the girl. When it comes to drinking capacity, you may not be able to surpass her, not to mention the people behind me, who are all the best drinkers in this area.
What do you think? Are you scared now? If you admit your mistake now, I, Niu Ye, will not bully you. You leave the money, apologize to us, admit that you have boasted, and I will let you go. "
Chen Xueru also stepped forward, looked Jia Youcai up and down, rolled her eyes, and said sarcastically, "I was wondering where this hero came from. Look at what you're wearing, I'm afraid you just came from the countryside.
You have never seen the world and think that you can talk nonsense here just because you drink a little wine. Don't listen to what Master Niu said and admit your mistake. It will be embarrassing for you, a master.
Don't even mention the people who can drink in the whole Daqianmen. There are only these people here. If you can win, the bet between you and Mr. Niu will not count. I, Chen Xueru, will add a prize for you.
