Chapter 131 I’m Afraid You’ll Be Tired
Chen Chuo was lost in thought as he stole a glance at him. Suddenly, the prince raised his head to stretch. He immediately retracted his gaze and looked elsewhere.
Ling Qingyan was tired and wanted to take a break. It was not good to sit for a long time, so she stood up and stretched her muscles.
Seeing that Shen Chuo was distracted, Ling Qingyan quietly walked around and came behind him.
"Hey!" Ling Qingyan took advantage of his distraction and patted his shoulder. Shen Chuo shuddered and was startled.
Then she realized that Ling Qingyan looked up and smiled at her.
"I didn't even notice Your Highness."
"It turns out that our Shen Zhuangyuan would also be distracted when doing these things." Ling Qingyan smiled and crossed her chest.
Chen Chuo pursed his lips and smiled lightly, as if a little embarrassed. Ling Qingyan thought the kid was taking a joke seriously, so she immediately patted his shoulder and said soothingly, "I don't blame you. I was more distracted. Today might be the first day and I'm more excited, so I can be stronger."
"You don't know me before. It's like taking Mu Xianzhi's class. I could clearly feel that he was teaching very well, but I would often get distracted. I would be sitting in my seat, but my soul would already be floating in the sky."
It may not be in the sky, it may also be on Mu Xianzhi's attractive face.
"Your Highness, will you miss the people and things in Kyoto after leaving the capital? It's just like Master Mu's class." Shen Chuo asked with a faint smile on his face as if chatting.
"Of course I miss you." Ling Qingyan looked melancholy. Shen Chuo felt a tightness in his heart. Then he heard Ling Qingyan say, "I don't know if I'll have the chance to see Mansheng again in the future."
"And you." Ling Qingyan said whatever came to her mind, "You should stay in Yizhou for a few months and then go back to accompany your sister. Otherwise, your sister will be lonely in the capital, and you can be a comfort to her."
"After all, the Duke's Mansion still depends on you two to support it."
"I'm afraid that won't work." Shen Chuo said with a smile, "I left Beijing to seek medicine because I was 'seriously ill'. How could I return so soon if I was seriously ill?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness. My sister is very capable. She is much more adaptable than you and I imagine. Even without me, she can still support the Duke's Mansion."
Shen Chuo smiled sincerely.
Fortunately, His Highness only mentioned my sister and no one else.
In fact, in His Highness's heart, they are just like that.
"Sister Qingxi! Your brother Cui is here to help you clean up the tent!" Cui Huailang's voice suddenly rang out.
Furongzhuang opened today, so there must be a lot of things to do. Cui Huailang came to his neighbor's house after having dinner at home, and brought some fragrant lotus root and pork ribs soup for his sister Qingxi to try.
Just hearing this disgusting voice and name, Chen Chuo began to feel irritated.
"A Feng, let Brother Cui come in. He's here to help me."
During the day, Cui Huailang greeted her and said that he would come later to help her set up the tent, and Ling Qingyan agreed without hesitation.
It’s just that Shen Chuo had a good rest and was in good spirits, so he insisted on helping.
As expected, as expected of the number one scholar, Shen Chuo had a sharp mind and handled the accounts in an orderly manner without any confusion.
Generally speaking, an accountant must be a trustworthy person, and she trusts Chen Chuo too much. After all, they have known each other for so long, and he is Mansheng's younger brother.
At first I thought he was very worldly-wise and spoke very nice words, but after getting to know him, I felt that he was actually a good person. His sophistication was just right, which made people feel very comfortable.
Moreover, his personality is also related to his upbringing. He often puts himself in a low position. He used to see her kneeling at every turn, and it was only after she talked to him about this many times that he changed.
But he is a very loyal and grateful person. He and Mansheng have helped her a lot. If he was not a trustworthy person, he would have taken the money and left when Ling Qingyan gave it to him for temporary storage. The money is another matter. If he wanted to betray her, he would not have gone through so much trouble.
Just report her affairs to the prince and you will have all the glory and wealth.
She was really grateful that he was such a smart person who knew how to weigh the pros and cons and could help her achieve this.
When Cui Huailang entered the study, he saw Shen Chuo sitting at the desk and said with a smile, “Sister Qingxi, why are you still exploiting the labor of your friend when he is in poor health?”
"Who exploited the labor? I'm so kind and beautiful, do I look like the kind of black-hearted boss who exploits the labor?" Ling Qingyan smiled. She knew that Cui Huailang was teasing her.
"Tsk, she really doesn't look like that. Boss Gu looks like the kind of boss who is pretty and treats her employees well."
The two of them spoke very familiarly and joked very naturally. It didn't seem like they were friends who had known each other for less than a month, but more like they had known each other for many years.
This kind of inexplicable familiarity is so enviable.
Chen Chuo's fingers turned white from pinching.
Cui Huailang approached the two of them very familiarly and glanced at the account book on Chen Chuo's desk: "Hey, how come Mr. Chen took my job?"
His tone was quite regretful. It wasn't that he loved working, but that if he worked more, he could stay in Qingyuan longer.
Tsk, this guy is too hardworking.
Shen Chuo was furious when he heard this.
What do you mean he stole his job?
On the contrary, Tiangang is good.
It was obvious that he had taken his place.
"I'm worried you'll tire yourself out," Chen Chuo said with a forced smile. "Besides, I'm smart, and Master Cui seems cheerful. I'm worried you'll mess up the account book, which would be really troublesome."
It was a very polite remark, but how come it sounded a little off coming from Mr. Shen's mouth?
"It's okay, I'm in good health and won't be tired." Cui Huailang said.
Shen Chuo's face darkened: "Mr. Cui may have some misunderstandings about me."
"I'm not in bad health. I'm just a little weak from the long journey during the day." Chen Chuo gritted his teeth.
"A little weak?" Cui Huailang couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Mr. Shen may have some misunderstandings about being a little weak."
His sarcasm was quite obvious.
"Cough cough." Ling Qingyan coughed twice and glanced at Cui Huailang.
Shen Chuo has always had an inferiority complex, and he is used to joking around so he blurts out whatever he wants.
What if the child becomes distracted when he returns home?
He said that if you are in good health, then you are in good health.
I don't know what they are all stubborn about.
Cui Huailang understood Ling Qingyan very well. He knew what she meant just by looking at her eyes, and immediately shut up and changed the subject.
"I'm not here for nothing. I'm here with a new business opportunity." Cui Huailang said with a smile.
"Speak." Ling Qingyan looked at him.
"In a few days, the merchant will hold a flower viewing banquet. It seems to be for young men and women of advanced age. Many young ladies and ladies from the wealthy families in Yizhou will be attending."
"What a coincidence! Young Master Shang Liu is my brother. I just happened to be able to get an invitation. We can go together and promote our products."
Cui Huailang had just picked a flower outside to play with, and naturally handed it to Ling Qingyan, "Sister Qingxi, what do you think?"
