Chapter 343 You Want to Starve Me to Death
Nodding slightly towards Xu Qingye, Jiang Surao stepped forward and took Song Yuntang's arm.
"It's early in the morning, I just had a full meal, and you fed me again. Are you trying to stuff me to death?"
Song Yuntang didn't react, but didn't ask any more questions. He got on the Jiang family's carriage with her, and Mingyue sat with Nian'er again.
Xu Qingye handed the medicine box to Xu Wencheng, watched the carriage leave, turned a corner at the street corner and disappeared, then he closed the gate and headed towards the Tang Mansion.
…
From Anyang County to Yingshan City is a little farther than from Cile Town to Anyang County. It was already noon when we arrived at the gate of the provincial capital.
The group headed straight for the location of Yujun Pavilion’s new shop.
When they arrived, Song Jinsheng, Mu Dong and Tu Shi were hanging a plaque at the door with a ladder.
Mu Dong and Song Jinsheng each stood on one side of the ladder, lifting the plaque to hang it up. Tu Shi stood in the middle, supporting one with each hand, which was quite steady.
The carriage stopped in front of the shop, and Song Yuntang was the first to get out of the carriage.
“Second brother!”
Haven't seen you for a while, I miss you a lot.
Although he was a bit harsh at first, he was indeed the only one of her family members who could understand her and was willing to treat her well after getting to know her.
It is because of him that she can rest assured to hand over all the business in the provincial capital to them.
Song Jinsheng, who had just put the plaque away, heard the sound and hurriedly looked back. When he saw Song Yuntang, he was so excited that he almost slipped off the ladder.
Fortunately, Tu Shi was quick-witted and grabbed his arm to prevent him from falling.
Mu Dong on the side was also shocked.
"Are you okay?"
Song Jinsheng smiled foolishly and shook his head, "It's okay."
He turned and walked towards Song Yuntang impatiently.
"Tang'er is here."
"Second brother has just recovered from his injury, you have to be careful. I was scared to death just now." Song Yuntang was also frightened just now. If she had known this would happen, she would have waited for him to come down the ladder before calling him.
"It's okay, second brother is fine." Song Jinsheng smiled and saw that his sister had become much rosier these days. She couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth, which were almost grinning behind her ears.
It can be seen that the Xu family still cares about her.
Before coming to the provincial capital, he went to the county town to see her. At that time, she was still injured and looked very pale. It broke his heart to see her, but he couldn't do anything for her.
At that time, I blamed myself for being incompetent.
Another thing is that his sister is already married, and with the Xu family watching over her, he can't interfere too much. He can only take her instructions to heart and try his best to figure out and arrange things.
Song Yuntang looked him up and down with a smile, noticing the joy in his eyes, then turned to look towards the shop.
"Where's Mu Qiu?"
Song Jinsheng said heartlessly, "I am leading the three maids I bought to clean the shelves and arrange the goods in the shop. Are you hungry? Sister Chen's meal in the backyard should be ready soon."
"I've been sitting in the carriage for the whole afternoon, but I'm not that hungry. You didn't know we were coming, so you probably didn't prepare any food, right?"
It seems that my second brother still doesn’t know who his fiancée is.
Song Yuntang smiled, asked Nian'er to order a few dishes from the restaurant across the street, and then introduced Jiang Surao to everyone.
"This is the young lady of the Jiang family in town, and she is also one of the owners of our Yujun Pavilion."
"Miss Jiang?" Song Jinsheng had a vague impression of her. "But she was the one who ordered a handkerchief from us before?"
"Exactly."
Song Yuntang said this and led Jiang Surao into the shop.
The shop was elegantly decorated. Two of the maids were wiping the shelves and placing goods on display, while Mu Qiu led another one to the counter and taught her how to count.
Seeing Song Yuntang coming, she looked delighted.
"Song..." Realizing that he called her the wrong name, he immediately changed his words, "Tang'er is here."
Song Yuntang walked towards her with a smile.
"How is it? Maybe it will open smoothly tomorrow?"
"Yes, the shop can be decorated today. I will lead everyone to familiarize themselves with the shop in the afternoon, and we will start the ribbon-cutting ceremony at 9:00 p.m. tomorrow." Mu Qiu said, introducing Song Yuntang to the maids beside him, "This is the owner of Yujun Pavilion, Song Yuntang, and the one next to him is Miss Jiang."
The two maids bowed hurriedly.
"Hello, Boss. Hello, Miss Jiang."
The two nodded, "No need to be polite."
After walking around upstairs and downstairs with Jiang Surao, Nian'er came over with a servant from across the street carrying some dishes.
The food for lunch today was much richer. After everyone had their fill, they started to get back to their own business.
Mu Qiu handed over the indentures of the three maids in the shop and Sister Chen, who cooked and cleaned the backyard, to Song Yuntang.
"Tang'er, it's safer to keep these things with you."
Song Yuntang took it.
"Okay, I'll keep the indentures. You can keep an eye on them later. If there are smart people with clean family backgrounds, you can buy some more. Once this shop is stable, we will open our second shop in places that are not affected by the disaster."
Mu Qiu nodded, "I will keep this in mind."
Song Yuntang looked at her with a smile, "You should pay more attention to the things here now. When you marry my second brother in the future, you will have people who can be used, and you will be able to relax a little and don't have to watch over everything yourself."
Mu Qiu's face suddenly turned red.
"I see."
Song Yuntang came closer to her and said, "I saw today that the second brother still doesn't know that his engagement partner is you?"
Mu Qiu sighed helplessly.
"He's such a blockhead, I don't know what to say. These days I can't even touch the corner of his clothes. He said he has a fiancée and I have to keep my distance from him. Men and women shouldn't touch each other. I really have no idea what to do."
She didn't know whether to be sad or happy.
The sad thing is that Brother Jinsheng didn't let her get close to him, so he definitely had no feelings for her.
The good news is that he has his own principles. If you marry him in the future, at least you won’t have to worry about being tempted by those beautiful girls out there.
There are always pros and cons.
Song Yuntang listened and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
When I think of the scene where Song Jinsheng said this, I just find it funny and cute.
"I can't do anything about having such a brother. You can only bear with him."
Mu Qiu smiled faintly.
"Actually, it's quite good for him to do this. It's safe."
Song Yuntang patted her shoulder.
"Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. As long as you like it, that's fine."
…
In the afternoon, Song Yuntang wandered around the area and found the nearest inn to stay with Jiang Surao, each in a room.
The provincial capital is much more prosperous than the county town. The location of Yujun Pavilion is not the best, but it is definitely not bad. There are many people coming and going outside.
Jiang Surao felt bored, so after Song Yuntang finished her work in the shop, she took her to the most prosperous night market in the provincial capital.
Tonight there are lanterns to watch and music to listen to on the Cuihua River.
The two of them found a teahouse with the best view, drank tea, ate snacks, admired the lanterns, and listened to music, feeling so comfortable.
