Liu Wanyun wanted to take a look at the layout of their shop and discuss how to decorate it and turn it into the music school they wanted.
As soon as she got off the car, she walked towards the shop. Seeing Zhang Xinyue staring into the distance without moving, she turned around and stood beside her, asking curiously, "What strange thing did you see?"
Zhang Xinyue replied, "I really want to see Aunt Rong."
When Liu Wanyun heard the name, a light bulb suddenly lit up in her head and she had an idea.
"Where is it?"
They were just wondering who to find to be the instructor at the teaching workshop. Wouldn't Nanny Rong be a perfect candidate? The last time she came to the Shen residence, Liu Wanyun had seen her needlework, which was excellent. Furthermore, she was a teaching nanny herself, and her requirements were strict, making her the perfect choice to manage the work.
But, I don’t know if they are willing?
Zhang Xinyue pointed ahead and said, "We just entered the Zhouji Silk Shop over there~"
"Let's go say hello to her."
The three of them walked towards Zhouji Silk Shop. As soon as they entered the door, they heard the voice of Nanny Rong.
"Miss Ruonan, are you shopping alone?"
Ruonan?
When they went out, Ruonan was still at home. Why is she here now?
"Hello, Madam Rong, I'm not... I'm..."
Ruonan was wondering how to answer when she looked up and saw Liu, Guan and Zhang coming in from the door.
"I came out with my sisters-in-law~"
Liu Wanyun and Zhang Xinyue looked at each other and felt that there was something wrong with Ruonan.
Nanny Rong turned around and saw the three young ladies of the Shen family, and the puzzled expression on her face disappeared halfway.
"All is well, three young ladies!"
Liu Wanyun greeted her warmly, "Madam Rong, long time no see. We all missed you so much. We were just thinking of inviting you out for tea someday, and we just happened to meet."
Nanny Rong naturally didn't believe it. "I heard that Chenji Silk Shop has been doing very good business recently. The new clothes are the work of the eldest young lady. They are new styles that have never been seen in Puning City. I wonder why the young lady would come to Zhouji Silk Shop?"
The waiter next to them looked at the three newcomers in disbelief.
Why are the people from the Shen family here?
"It's just luck that everyone likes me. Aunt Rong is so kind. We were just strolling around with Sister Ruonan... and when we saw this weekly silk shop, we naturally wanted to come in and learn a little bit..."
Ruonan's pleading eyes forced her to cover up for her.
Aunt Rong nodded, reluctantly agreeing with the statement. She turned to ask the waiter next to her, "Where is your shopkeeper?"
The waiter politely replied, "My boss is off today, but our boss's young master will be visiting the store and should be here soon..."
This waiter must have been here not long ago. He didn't recognize that Madam Rong was the only madam with some experience in the Zhou residence.
Nanny Rong frowned but said nothing.
Ruonan, who was standing by, started to shout that she wanted to leave and go look at other shops.
Liu Wanyun felt that her anxious look was suspicious, but she didn't want to make things difficult for her. She arranged to invite Nanny Rong to go to the teahouse next door for tea.
Matron Rong shook her head. "There's no need to go to the teahouse. Forgive Matron Rong for being nosy, but it's best for young ladies to avoid places like that."
"If the young lady has anything to say, you can come to the carriage and talk to me."
If you want to ask someone to do something, you must be sincere. How can you ask them to do it while sitting in a carriage?
Liu Wanyun immediately decided to invite Nanny Rong to the restaurant.
Just as they finished their discussion and were about to leave, Master Zhou came out from behind. He didn't see the person clearly, but thought it was a customer leaving, so he greeted him, "Would you please take a closer look? Our Zhouji Silk Shop is offering discounts to regular customers these days~"
Hearing the voice, Nanny Rong stopped and turned around to greet him. "Hello, young master. Madam asked me to tell you to go home early at noon. She said there are guests coming to the house!"
Mr. Zhou didn't expect that they were all acquaintances. He looked a little embarrassed, especially with a box of cakes in his hand, which made him feel even more restrained and uneasy.
"Hello, my three sisters-in-law. I apologize for my rudeness..."
He handed the cake to the waiter, bowed quickly, and then glanced at Ruonan, "Hello, Miss Shen!"
Ruonan lowered her head and responded, but Liu Wanyun still noticed something unusual from her red ears.
"Sister-in-law, let's go!"
Liu Wanyun's eyes swept between Mr. Zhou and Ruonan, and she roughly understood.
"How about we go to the restaurant with Madam Rong, and you go around on your own?"
She said this on purpose, wanting to see their reactions.
Mr. Zhou's face was full of anticipation, but Ruonan's eyes flickered and she didn't dare to look at him.
"I'm not going to shop anymore, sisters-in-law go ahead, I want to go home!"
When he heard they were leaving, Master Zhou quickly took the box of cakes he had brought from the maid and handed it to Matron Rong. "Matron, please give this to the young mistress. This is the almond cake from the shop on the street that's doing very well. Please give it to my three sisters-in-law and...my younger sister."
Aunt Rong gave the cake to Liu Wanyun, but Liu Wanyun gave it to Ruonan and said with a joking smile, "Please ask my sister to help us eat it!"
Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei all looked as if they were enjoying themselves, not noticing that Aunt Rong had a gloomy look on her face and looked somewhat displeased.
After they were seated at the restaurant, Nanny Rong said, "The behavior of the three young ladies just now will ruin Miss Shen's reputation."
Liu Wanyun could not understand the strict requirements for women in this era. She just sincerely thought that it was just a normal interaction between a man and a woman who were interested in each other.
She said nonchalantly, "Miss Ruonan was just here shopping and accepted a box of pastries. She didn't do anything inappropriate!"
