Chapter 005



Seeing Xie Shu finally coming out of the attic, Xi Mo, who had been waiting outside, couldn't help but brighten up his eyes. He immediately came up to Xie Shu, and the master and servant returned the same way.

Before he had taken a few steps, Xi Mo couldn't help but ask, "Master, how did you get along with Master Yu just now? Was Master Yu happy to see you?"

Xie Shu always felt that Xi Mo's question was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange...

Xie Shu did not answer immediately. He glanced at Xi Mo and said, "Not bad."

In fact, it was more than okay. According to Xie Shu's initial expectation, the original body was a son-in-law and was not very popular, which could be seen from the reactions of other people.

Therefore, Xie Shu was also tactful. Knowing that Yu Chuxi was busy, he thought he would have to wait for a long time, so he couldn't help but study his master's calligraphy and paintings for a while.

In fact, this action was a bit rude, especially when Yu Chuxi arrived later, he stared at the other's face for a while.

But Yu Chuxi was not angry, and his attitude was not superior.

Even if she was dissatisfied with him, she would say it out loud, and in the end, they actually got along well.

Thinking of the smile that suddenly broke out on the other person's beautiful face, Xie Shu's eyebrows softened unconsciously.

fine?

Seeing his master perfunctorily answering him, Xi Mo had no way to respond, and he didn't know what was going on, so he felt anxious. However, he secretly glanced at Xie Shu and found that his expression was unusually relaxed, as if with a hint of indescribable tenderness...

Xi Mo was overjoyed. It seemed that the master and Yu Langjun might really be together...

Xi Mo was just about to joke with his master, when he saw someone coming from the front. He immediately reminded Xie Shu in a low voice, "Master, the one in front seems to be Second Uncle Yu."

Upon hearing this, Xie Shu looked and saw a middle-aged man with a big belly walking towards the corridor in front. He was about 40 years old and looked very wealthy.

As Yu Wanchun walked, he instructed the people behind him: "Since the beginning of the year, your three businesses have suffered a lot of losses, but some seasonal items depend on the season..."

After he said this, the others echoed him, "That's right, thank you for your understanding, Master."

Yu Wanchun changed the subject and said, "It's just that Chu Xi is the boss now. He is taking over these things for the first time and can't tolerate any sand in his eyes. When you meet him later, you know what to say, right?"

Everyone looked at each other, it was obvious that they had already discussed it. Yu Wanchun showed a bit of satisfaction in his eyes. At this moment, he saw Xie Shu standing not far in front of him, and he was stunned and stopped.

Second Uncle Yu?

Xie Shu guessed that Ximo called him according to the generation of his "wife", so he should also call this man second uncle.

Although Xie Shu knew nothing about his original body's situation, he knew that it was best to say hello when meeting an elder.

Xie Shu didn't hesitate too much and walked over directly. Seeing his master's action, Xi Mo was a little surprised, but he still followed his master immediately.

When Xie Shu approached and called him "Second Uncle", Yu Wanchun frowned slightly, then smiled cheerfully and said, "Isn't this my dear nephew? It's been a long time since we last met."

"My dear nephew" is a general term for people of the same generation and younger generations. From the other party's tone, one can't tell anything, but his attitude can be considered kind.

However, Xie Shu did not relax his vigilance and observed the people behind the other party.

Those people were wearing clothes made of dark silk and seemed to be managers or something like that.

Yu Wanchun looked at Xie Shu's face and asked with concern, "I heard that you accidentally fell into the water a few days ago. Are you feeling better now? I was just saying that I would come to see you this afternoon, but I didn't expect to meet you here... But you look much thinner, so you still need to take care of yourself for a while. If you need anything, just let me know."

Yu Wanchun said this very appropriately, and at the same time he was hinting to others that Xie Shu and Yu Chuxi were not getting along... After all, this place was near the attic where Yu Chuxi lived, but he said that he didn't expect to meet Xie Shu, and Xie Shu was Yu Chuxi's husband, so what would he lack...

After Yu Wanchun finished speaking, he looked at Xie Shu and waited for his response. According to Xie Shu's previous personality, Xie Shu would most likely be grateful for this, but also look a bit embarrassed.

But what surprised Yu Wanchun was that he found that Xie Shu's expression had hardly any fluctuations, his eyes were calm, and he seemed to be cold and indifferent.

But Yu Wanchun knew clearly that Xie Shu was definitely not such a person. If not, could it be that he had learned to restrain his emotions?

In fact, Xie Shu really didn't think there was anything wrong. He had seen a lot of polite words from modern people. Besides, he didn't know Yu Wanchun. If he really cared about him, he would have come here in the past few days. Why would he say all this?

Thinking of this, Xie Shu said calmly: "Thank you for your concern, uncle. I will be fully recovered in a few days. As for what I lack, there is nothing. My husband has taken great care of me."

The latter sentence was what Xie Shu really thought.

Moreover, he just heard the conversation between the other party and the managers. Although he was far away, Xie Shu happened to hear a little bit when the other party mentioned the three words "Yu Chuxi".

In fact, Xie Shu didn't know much about Yu Chuxi, but he felt that he did things in an organized manner, and he was not like what this Second Uncle Yu said.

However, Xie Shu didn't know that although he said it so lightly and he didn't think it meant anything, what would it mean to others?

The eyes of several managers behind Yu Wanchun secretly exchanged with each other.

Yu Wanchun's eyes flickered for a moment before he spoke: "I see, I didn't expect Chu Xi to care about others now..."

Xie Shu didn't know why Yu Wanchun mentioned Yu Chuxi again, so he didn't respond.

Yu Wanchun paused for a moment, and seeing that Xie Shu was not getting any attention, he continued, "Chu Xi has a fierce temper, and only family members know it. If you have been wronged, don't keep it in your heart..."

However, this time before he could finish, Xie Shu suddenly interrupted him. In fact, Xie Shu was not a very patient person, especially when dealing with people.

Xie Shu couldn't understand why this second uncle Yu kept mentioning Yu Chuxi in front of him, as if he was very persistent. In Xie Shu's opinion, whether a person is good or bad is not something that others can judge.

Since the other party's words were meaningless, Xie Shu felt that there was no need to continue communicating.

His tone was much more distant: "Second Uncle, is there anything else?"

Seeing Xie Shu's reaction, Yu Wanchun's face darkened for a moment. He did not expect Xie Shu to be so rude.

Xie Shu was still a scholar and had never done this before, but when he thought that Xie Shu was a scholar after all, Yu Wanchun felt much calmer.

In fact, since just now, many things have been beyond Yu Wanchun's expectations, so Yu Wanchun was a little anxious. If it were normal, he would never be so reckless.

Yu Wanchun put on a smile again and said, "Well, as an old man, I shouldn't interfere in the affairs of the younger generation, hahaha. So my dear nephew, take good care of yourself."

When Xie Shu heard this, he felt that inexplicable strange feeling coming back again. He didn't respond, just nodded and left with Xi Mo.

Looking at Xie Shu's back, the smile on Yu Wanchun's face unconsciously faded and his plan changed.

On the way back, Xie Shu felt that Xi Mo was much calmer than before, but his expression also revealed a bit of excitement.

It seems that Ximo didn't feel strange about the behavior just now.

Xie Shu's mind moved, and he suddenly asked, "Ximo, what kind of person is this Second Uncle Yu?"

Xi Mo had no doubts and thought Xie Shu was testing him.

To be honest, Ximo was also very surprised when he saw Xie Shu's attitude change drastically in front of Yu Wanchun just now. But now it seems that if Xie Shu had not acted like this, Ximo would not think that there was anything wrong with Yu Wanchun. Instead, he would think that Yu Wanchun was a rare person who treated them well.

Now Xi Mo really felt that he was shortsighted. He scratched his head and said shamelessly, "I have heard a lot from others before. They all said that Second Uncle Yu, no, Yu Wanchun is a very good man with a kind personality and never embarrasses others. But if it weren't for the master today, I wouldn't know that he is actually a smiling face hiding a knife, deliberately trying to sow discord between the master and Mr. Yu!"

When Ximo said the last sentence, he suddenly gritted his teeth, as if he was very angry about it.

At this moment, Xie Shu had a flash of inspiration in his mind, as if he had grasped the strangeness that had always remained in his heart. What was hidden behind the layers of veils?

Xie Shu always felt that this was something that everyone should know, but no one really talked about it, and no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't get to the bottom of it.

What does this mean?

This is common sense, but in his world, it is not common sense!

Before Xie Shu could continue thinking, Xi Mo said, "Master, tell me, why did Yu Wanchun do this? I know! Yu Wanchun must be dissatisfied with the fact that you are now managing the Yu family, and wants to compete with you for the family property! Although most of the Yu family's businesses were founded by Master Yu, who told you..."

Xi Mo refused to continue talking at this point. Xie Shu felt helpless. This feeling of being just one step away from success was not pleasant. But what exactly was this common sense? And what did it have to do with Yu Chuxi?

Thinking about the brief time he had spent with the other party just now, Xie Shu fell into deep thought.

Before they knew it, the master and servant had returned to their residence.

Xi Mo went to look for the servant he had sent to get the medicine, but the servant said in a perfunctory manner, "Brother Mo, the storehouse said they have run out of the medicinal materials you asked me to withdraw."

Of course, the people in the warehouse said much more than just that. The servant was too lazy to endure this and just went back.

In fact, those who work here were already dissatisfied, and now that this happened, they were even more convinced that there was no turning back in the relationship between Xie Shu and Yu Langjun, so it goes without saying that they were in turmoil.

Xi Mo couldn't help but curse, "These dogs look down on others. Our master and his lover are doing well!"

I don’t know who I’m scolding in the first sentence.

The servant's face turned red, and he spat in his heart as he walked away quickly, thinking that Xie Shu was really talking nonsense. They have been working here for three years, and Mr. Yu only came once a few days ago, and that was because Xie Shu was sick!

After Xi Mo came back, he was still not satisfied and worried about Xie Shu: "Master, I will go to the warehouse again now. If these people dare to neglect you, I will go find you..."

In fact, Ximo was not very confident when it came to this, because what he was most worried about was that the young master was not willing to make the decision for the master... But if that was the case, he could not blame anyone else, because it was the master who treated the young master like that before...

I don't know what happened between the master and the young master today...

This is also the reason why Ximo has always wanted to find out.

Xie Shu understood what Xi Mo meant. He really felt that he and Yu Chuxi got along well. Xie Shu did not think that the other party was pretending.

As for the medicinal herbs, Xie Shu didn't really care. The reason why his body was weak was because he lacked exercise. He would just exercise well in the future.

Xie Shu was about to explain things to Xi Mo when he suddenly heard a noise outside, as if someone was coming.

The author has something to say:

I will try to update it later and it will be on the list next week.
