The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 870 Mo Haiyao's face needs saving

"That's right. It won't be too late for us to leave when my uncle drives us away. Neither of us can manage such a big household. It would be difficult for you to manage a bunch of maids and servants."

Shang Xi admitted: "I really can't manage so many people."

Shi Hongshang said: "I heard that you are quite capable. You can't even discipline dozens of maids and servants."

"Ah, who said I can do that? I'm just an ordinary woman. If you don't believe me, ask Cheng Feng."

Cheng Feng said: "She is definitely not capable of this. She is soft-hearted and cannot control her servants."

Shi Hongshang asked: "How did you live before you moved here?"

Cheng Feng said, "In the past, our family of three lived in a small courtyard. We had a sister Wu who was responsible for cooking, and a nanny Xinyue for the child. One of her good friends, Yuhua, was our housekeeper. She was in charge of all matters at home. She was in charge of a lot of things. Shang Xi was also in charge of everything. Anyway, there were only a few people in the family. The rest of the people belonged to my parents and were not under our control. Therefore, Shang Xi never managed the family."

Shi Hongshang heard this and said, "Then what is she in charge of, business or accounts? The two elders of the Wan family praised Shang Xi to bits, this can't be fake, right?"

Cheng Feng said: "I look after all the accounts. She doesn't help at all. Half of the business is managed by my brother-in-law and the other half is managed by me. In short, Shang Xi doesn't care about these things."

Shi Hongshang thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I understand. Shang Xi will be responsible for educating the child."

Cheng Feng said, "Come on, my son is free-range and neither of us cares much about him. The things we have said to Cheng Youning are not even one-tenth of what his husband has said to him."

Shang Xi poked Cheng Feng and said, "Aren't we taking care of the child recently?"

When Shi Hongshang heard this, she laughed, "Shang Xi, you just do nothing and enjoy yourself."

Shang Xi said, "I'm miserable. It's not as good as you said. Today someone asks me to draw a blueprint, and tomorrow someone asks me to draw a blueprint. I'll draw it, and I accept it. But the people who ask me to draw the blueprint are all impatient. They urge me every two or three days, causing me to stay up half the night for them. It's so difficult for me."

Cheng Feng nodded and said, "Yes, Shang Xi did things that we don't know how to do. She worked late into the night to draw drawings for several days in a row. Compared to doing housework, Shang Xi's work is not easy at all."

Shi Hongshang chuckled, "I knew Shang Xi was extraordinary the first time we met. If Cheng Feng hadn't just stopped Boss Qian from building a big house with you, I would have asked you to go to my teahouse. I want to make it more unique."

Cheng Feng said, "Shi Hongshang, you are trying to do the same thing. Do you know how much work Shang Xi has on hand?"

Shi Hongshang said: "I didn't say that I must ask Shang Xi to help me run a teahouse."

How could Shang Xi have the nerve to refuse Shi Hongshang? The Shi family was the benefactor of Wan Lianxing, which was in other words the benefactor of their Wan family. A few days ago, when they went to Chaizhou, Mr. Shi and his family warmly entertained them for several days. When they came back, the Shi family also packed a lot of famous teas and gifts in large and small bags. If she refused Shi Hongshang, she couldn't open her mouth.

"Then I'll go and show you in the next two days."

Shi Hongshang said, "Thank you, Madam Cheng."

Shang Xi said: "It's just a small matter, a small matter."

A few people were walking back chatting and laughing. Before they reached the main hall, they saw someone coming to greet them. Boss Qian told them that it was time to eat.

Boss Qian didn't invite many people. Except for Shi Hongshang and Mo Haiyao, he knew everyone else.

Shi Hongshang was stunned when she saw Mo Haiyao, and Boss Qian introduced them to each other.

Shi Hongshang thought for a moment and said, "I have heard of the eldest son of the Mo family in Bianjing. I have a ceramic tea set made by Mr. Mo himself at home. It is exquisite and my father has always regarded it as a rare treasure."

Mo Haiyao said in his unique hoarse accent: "You are too kind. If Mr. Shi likes it, I will give Mr. Shi another set someday."

Shi Hongshang's family grows and sells tea, so their home must have various kinds of ceramic utensils. Mo Haiyao's ceramics are so famous, so naturally he has some at home.

Shi Hongshang said: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Mo on behalf of my father."

Shi Hongshang asked Cheng Feng in a low voice: "You asked my father to come and treat someone, it wouldn't be for this Mr. Mo, right? Isn't Mr. Mo from Bian Jing both talented and handsome?" It's no wonder that Shi Hongshang guessed it right, because this Mo Haiyao's face needed to be saved so much. If these people hadn't introduced him, he would definitely have avoided Mo Haiyao after seeing his appearance.

Cheng Feng said: "Business, he is a good friend of mine, and has business dealings with our Wan family and Qian family."

Mo Haiyao finally understood that the Shi family was the En family that Wan Lianxing mentioned. He thought Wan Lianxing had forgotten about the promise to ask someone to help him, but it turned out that he had already mentioned it to the Shi family. He hurriedly stood up and bowed to Shi Hongshang again, saying in a hoarse voice, "I'm so sorry, I didn't expect that Mr. Shi was the Mr. Shi family that the Marquis mentioned. Nice to meet you."

Shi Hongshang had no choice but to stand up and return the greeting. "My father has been away recently. When he comes back, he will come to Fengying to pay his respects to the Marquis and see Mr. Mo. However, my father's medical skills are still limited, so he may not be able to help Mr. Mo."

Mo Haiyao smiled and said, "Thanks to the Marquis, I am very lucky to have the master of the Wan family come to see me personally. I don't ask for my hidden disease to be cured, but I will be very lucky if it can improve a little bit."

The two men exchanged some pleasantries before sitting down and the banquet began.

In order to make Wan Baiqian happy and to make the move more lively, Boss Qian even invited a troupe of actors to perform. As a result of the commotion, everyone returned home very late.

On the second day, Shang Xi followed Cheng Feng to the street. One reason was to see how her own noodle shop was being run by Cheng Feng, and the other was that she wanted to visit Shi Hongshang's teahouse.

There were people working inside the teahouse. Shang Xi and Cheng Feng had similar opinions, thinking that the shop could be cleaned up without much fuss, and that they could just buy some tables, chairs, benches, teapots and teacups and open for business. However, Shi Hongshang insisted on a major renovation, and kept saying that if the teahouse wasn't repaired properly, their good tea wouldn't sell for a good price.

Shang Xi had no choice but to agree to help with the design. According to Shi Hongshang's requirements, it should be fresh, elegant and unique, which Shang Xi could still do.

Shang Xi put the things in his hands aside and put Shi Hongshang's matter first. After all, this man was a foreigner and came here to do business, so he must hope to open the business earlier. Looking at the noodle shop that Cheng Feng was going to open tomorrow, Shi Hongshang was still a little envious.

Cheng Feng acted quickly and did not have high requirements for the noodle shop's environment, so the noodle shop opened for business the next day.
