Zhang's mother patted her face instead of her hands. "Girl, you can say such words, which means you have grown up and become sensible!"
"Everyone's young once. When I was your age, Mom was also very rebellious. Your grandmother scolded me, and I suddenly became a different person. Back then, I fell in love with your father and insisted on marrying him! The whole street in the north city knew about it!"
Zhang Xinyue looked at her mother in disbelief. "I never knew you were so brave! No wonder you didn't object when I said I'd marry into the Shen family. I thought you were attracted by their wealth!"
Mother Zhang chuckled and lowered her voice, "That's true! Why would she marry a poor boy instead of a rich businessman? I know my own limitations, and I do have wishful thinking from time to time. Look, you've succeeded! Remember, when will you invite your mother to stay with you for a few days?"
Zhang Xinyue suddenly felt that her mother was quite interesting.
After chatting with her daughter for a few words, Guan Xiaoyu's mother asked her to take her to check the front and back of the teahouse. She then gave some instructions to the dozen or so female guards in the teahouse, telling them where to arrange people to guard. In short, she was busy making arrangements.
Guan Xiaoyu teased her, "Mom, why don't you come to our teahouse to be a guard? I'll let you be the leader!"
"Go away! You're dreaming! You're finally married, and your father and I have our own world now. Don't even think about asking me to follow you!"
In the past, her daughter always clung to her father to learn kung fu or something, forcing her to stand aside, which made her feel very unhappy.
Ever since she fell into the water during the Lantern Festival, she started to change and was no longer as clingy. She thought it was strange at the time, but after the Flower Festival, she started clamoring to get married. She knew that her daughter had grown up and was thinking about love, so she sent her away quickly.
Although this husband's family is not what they like, as long as their daughter likes it and feels happy, that's enough!
The three mothers sat for an hour and then left. When asked to stay for lunch, they all said they had to go back and get food for their father.
The three daughters all wanted to say, "You won't starve to death even if you don't eat a meal! Even if you really don't go back, they will find a way themselves."
But in the end I held back!
If I really said that, I would probably be regarded as an unfilial daughter and scolded!
Miss Lu and others played until 3 p.m. before leaving.
A group of women gathered together, first praising each other, then excitedly gossiping, then watching the performances prepared by the teahouse, and finally learning to play mahjong.
Although Liu Wanyun had written down the mahjong rules in advance and posted them next to the mahjong table, some people with strong comprehension abilities learned them immediately, while others were a little slow and pestered Liu Wanyun and others to teach them.
When the ladies left, they were still reluctant to leave. They all said that mahjong was so much fun and they would come again next time!
Liu Wanyun watched them leave and complained to herself feebly, "I originally wanted to open a unique and romantic teahouse, but now it looks like it's going to become a mahjong parlor."
Zhang Xinyue laughed and said, "It's your fault for not choosing a good name!"
"ah?"
Liu Wanyun didn't react and didn't understand what she meant.
"Think about it, on our modern mahjong table, the four direction buttons are east, south, west and north, right?"
Liu Wanyun: ...
"However, we still need to replan it. The semi-open downstairs is still not suitable for playing mahjong. It will be too noisy, and it will really be like a mahjong parlor."
"From now on, only two of the private rooms upstairs will be used as mahjong rooms. The others will be used for drinking tea, watching operas, and listening to music."
Guan Xiaoyu stared at the performance area on the first floor and suddenly smiled. "What do you think? If a young man dances on that stage, wouldn't it be like a modern bar?"
The corners of the three people's mouths showed a meaningful smile. If that were really the case, the men in Puning City would be furious, and the shop might be smashed the next day.
Because it was the first day of business, after Miss Lu and the others left, Liu Wanyun and the other two decided to close the shop.
They know that others are definitely waiting and watching and will not accept it quickly.
The three of them were not in a hurry to leave. They followed the waiters to clean up and made some adjustments to the details of the teahouse.
Liu Wanyun said, "Let's also confirm the business hours. Considering the safety of women returning home too late, our shop will close at 3 p.m. every day."
"This shop is named after you, you decide everything!"
Neither of them had any objections.
The three men in the Shen family had objections.
The three of them deliberately stayed at home today, thinking that since their wife's teahouse was opening, it would be convenient for them to be contacted if anything was needed. However, it seemed that they were of no use at all.
The three of them walked around the garden twice in the morning, then played mahjong in Jingxinzhai for half a day, and finally took a nap. The person sent out to wait for news never came back to say that it was time to pick them up.
Shen Lao San muttered, "This Jingxinzhai, I can't calm my mind at all!"
Shen Lao Er waved his fan and said, "No wonder they want to go out all the time. It's really hard to stay at home all the time!"
Boss Shen lay on the bed with his hands under his head, "But father is very dissatisfied with them opening a shop!"
Shen Lao Er curled his lips and said, "That's because it was my sister-in-law's drawing, and this time my mother used it first and then gave it to him, so he's unhappy about it!"
Shen Lao San said impatiently, "You are not in a hurry at all. Father asked us to go and get Ruonan back, and you agreed very quickly, but you didn't take any action. You can still lie down when your wife doesn't come back for a long time!"
"I don't care. I'm going to go to the Jiangnan Tea House and take a look!"
With that he stood up and left.
As soon as he left, Boss Shen and Second Boss Shen quickly got up from their beds and chased after him.
Those three women were together, and if anyone was a step slower to pick it up, she would be blamed again.
Then, the doorman saw three young masters suddenly coming out from the inner courtyard and demanding that three carriages be prepared and must be pulled together.
However, outside the gate of the Shen Mansion, the road was only so wide that three carriages could not run side by side.
The third brother Shen could only walk at the end with full of complaints, and complained harshly about his two brothers, saying that they were not proactive in going out, and when they went out, they relied on being born earlier to grab a spot.
But when they arrived at the door of Jiangnan Teahouse, they saw that the door was closed and a sign saying "Closed" was hung on it.
"Where are the people?"
The three of them looked at each other, feeling inexplicably panicked.
Did something happen?
That’s not right. No one came back to report.
Did he run away?
But, their mother's home is here, where else can they go?
Besides, everything was fine, why would she run away? There was no quarrel or fight, and the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was quite stable.
Shen Lao San was just about to find the shop next door to ask when the Jiangnan Tea House closed and if anything special had happened today.
Shen Lao Er grabbed his arm and pointed at the door. "Wait a minute, listen! Is there a sound inside?"
