Chapter 117 Intrusion
Because Lian Qianli often took Hua Wanli to visit the Duke of Dingguo's mansion.
Soon, Madam Shen became familiar with the brother and sister.
I don't know why, but that kid Qianli is especially liked by old ladies like Madam Shen.
In Shangguan Jin's eyes, Lian Qianli was a friend to women...
Every time Lian Qianli came to visit, he would always spend some time talking with Madam Shen.
While being amused by Lian Qianli, Madam Shen also became interested in the Chunbuwan Teahouse.
There are dedicated tea ladies and tea gentlemen who brew tea!
Isn't this more interesting than brewing tea at home?
Gradually, Madam Shen became a regular at Chunbuwan.
Because of this, even Qianli specially reserved the Banyue Tuolan private room for the Shen family, and no one else was allowed to enter.
That day, the weather turned cool, and Old Madam Shen dressed warmly, and took Shangguan Jin to Chunbuwan again.
Because we notified the teahouse in advance yesterday, they set up the charcoal stove and everything else in the private room early on.
The teahouse originally had a heated wall, and when a fire was lit in the kitchen, the whole teahouse became warm.
Now that three more charcoal stoves have been added to the house, it's even warmer, just like springtime.
It's smokeless and odorless, with only a faint fragrance, which puts everyone at ease when they enter.
He took off his outer coat and, wearing only a single garment, leaned against the couch, with the tea lady's freshly brewed tea beside him.
This life is as comfortable as you can imagine.
Shangguan Jin leaned against the soft pillows, sipping a comfortably warm plum blossom tea, and chatting with Old Madam Shen.
"When your mother and I came last time, we asked the Tea Master to brew tea."
Jin'er, you know what, this tea master's tea-making skills are just as good as the tea lady's.
"Of course, it was behind a screen. After the tea was brewed, a tea boy brought it to us," Madam Shen said softly.
Shangguan Jin raised an eyebrow.
Wow, this old lady is something else! She's at the forefront of tea tasting in Beijing...
She even brought her stepmother with her. No wonder my mother has been coming to talk to the old lady so often lately!
Shangguan Jin was about to lean over and ask Old Madam Shen what the difference was between the tea brewed by the lady and the young master.
A faint commotion could be heard outside.
Shangguan Jin and Madam Shen frowned.
The tea lady, who was serving the tea, quickly smiled.
"Madam, please don't worry about it, someone will handle it. Please have some tea!"
After saying that, he handed Shangguan Jin a cup of freshly brewed tea.
Shangguan Jin nodded and listened carefully for a while longer; the noise didn't seem to have gone away.
"Mother, please sit here and don't move. I'll go take a look."
As she spoke, Shangguan Jin, with the help of Lin's mother, put on her coat, walked to the window by the door, opened it, and peered out.
At the bottom of the stairs on the first floor, seven or eight thugs carrying weapons were blocking the entrance.
Similarly, the guys from Chunbuwan blocked the stairwell to prevent those people from going upstairs.
"Jin'er, what's going on?" Old Madam Shen also came over.
Shangguan Jin imagined it for a moment.
"It must be that some master or mistress was having an affair at the teahouse, and their family came to their door to find out," Shangguan Jin said casually.
Upon hearing this, Madam Shen's eyes immediately lit up.
"Aunt Qiu, quick, bring me my cup of tea."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qiu quickly brought over two cups of tea.
Upon seeing this, the tea lady didn't hesitate and quickly moved two small stools over, and also moved a charcoal stove closer to the window.
Its main selling point is to be responsive and provide attentive service.
Shangguan Jin and Madam Shen leaned against the windowsill, drinking tea and watching the commotion.
As for those who cause trouble...
Shangguan Jin wasn't worried at all.
Everyone outside knows that Chun Bu Wan has powerful backing. If Chun Bu Wan causes trouble, it's like an old man eating poison; he's had enough of living.
"What are you all doing here at our teahouse with your weapons?"
Are they vandalizing or just looking for trouble?
"We have important guests upstairs, so please leave and don't disturb our business." The shopkeeper, Qiu Niang, walked out unhurriedly.
When the young master-looking fellow who was leading the group saw Qiu Niang, his eyes glazed over for a moment before he swallowed hard.
"I am the third young master of the Ping'an Marquis's mansion. We lost a runaway slave in our mansion, and someone saw him fleeing to your teahouse."
I hope the shopkeeper will do me a favor.
Qiu Niang smiled, then turned to ask her own servant.
Did you see that?
"We didn't see it!" her henchmen said in unison.
Qiu Niang spread her hands.
“Our guys said they didn’t see it, so that means no one came in.”
Everyone, please go back! Look elsewhere; the person you're looking for won't be found in Spring Never Ends.
Seeing Qiu Niang's attitude, the young master who was leading the group also darkened his expression.
"Shopkeeper, please do me a favor!"
That runaway slave stole something very important from our house, something very important.
If the shopkeeper keeps blocking the way and won't move...
"So what if they don't allow it? Will they raid the Spring Evening Gala? Or will they just burn it down?"
Before the third son of the Marquis of Ping'an could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
Shangguan Jin and Madam Shen peeked out the window.
Finally, I saw the person who walked out of a room on the second floor without a folding fan, with his hands behind his back – it was Lian Qianli!
Oh, it's Lian Qianli's turn to appear.
Wait, why is Hua Wanli following behind him?
Why did that girl come out without even wearing a veil?
"Lian's skin is so delicate, won't he suffer at the hands of those people?" Old Madam Shen asked in a low voice.
Shangguan Jin gestured to Old Madam Shen not to stick her head out so far, lest she catch a cold.
"No way! That kid looks a bit dim-witted, but he's actually smarter than a monkey. He won't suffer any losses," Shangguan Jin whispered.
After thinking about it, Madam Shen realized that it made sense, and then continued to watch the excitement intently.
As soon as Lian Qianli stood in front of those people, they involuntarily took two steps back.
Since Chunbuwan opened, Lian Qianli has been thriving in Beijing.
Everyone knows that the owner of Chun Bu Wan is a charming and extravagant young master.
Furthermore, this young master Lian also has a beautiful younger sister...
The third young master of the Marquis of Ping'an glanced at Hua Wanli and seemed to lose his soul, staring straight at her.
Hua Wanli was already used to it.
But she still pretended to be shy and stood behind Lian Qianli.
"The third young master of the Ping'an Marquis's mansion? What do you mean? Do you want to continue searching?" Lian Qianli stood in front of Hua Wanli.
The third son of the Marquis of Ping An, who had just realized what was happening, finally came to his senses.
"What if I insist on searching?"
Lian Qianli smiled, took two steps forward, and then pressed his hand on a chair next to him.
"Give it a try!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the rosewood chair shattered into pieces, turning into tiny fragments.
This move alone was enough to frighten the third young master of the Marquis of Ping An and his men, causing them to take several steps back.
The third son of the Marquis of Ping'an was also startled when he saw the chair shattered into pieces.
I've never heard of this pretty boy having any special skills!
"If that's the case, and we can't search, then we'll find someone who can."
At that time, I hoped that Young Master Lian could be understanding.
After saying that, the third young master of the Ping'an Marquis's mansion turned around and was about to leave with his men.
"Wait!" Lian Qianli took two more steps forward, just blocking the path of the third young master of the Marquis of Ping An.
