After escaping from famine, the evil stepmother was pampered by the villain Zaizai Tuan
Chapter 144 The Chen Family in Qilin Lane
Jiang Xiaohua didn't seem to be panic at all, she smiled and said:
"The ancient saints visited the secluded masters and visited the thatched cottage three times."
"It's just our first time visiting, aren't we just going to be rejected? What are we afraid of?"
If she dared to come here today, she had already been mentally prepared.
If Chen Sheng refuses to see her, then first say a few more nice words, treat people with sincerity, and try to persuade her.
If words still can't convince the other person, then leave the gift and come back tomorrow.
If tomorrow doesn't work, then the day after tomorrow. If you can't see her at home, then go to the road to create a chance encounter.
There is always a way to meet anyway.
However, Jiang Xiaohua did not tell her two children about her plan.
After all, the follow-up method is a bit rogue, so it is better not to let pure children learn too early.
The three of them stood outside the door and waited for about a cup of tea.
The young man who originally opened the door came out again, "My master, please let the three of you in."
Chen Dawei and Liu Yong did not expect it to go so smoothly, and they were both overjoyed.
Jiang Xiaohua saw a bit of coldness and caution on this young man's face, which was not the case when he first met him.
She remained calm and followed the young man into the courtyard.
The front yard gives the same impression as the front door.
Rockeries, pools, stone arches, bamboo and wooden bridges...
Although every aspect of the landscaping in the courtyard has been carefully designed, it still looks natural and simple without any decoration.
There are various flowers and trees planted in the yard. It is the season of plum blossoms in bloom. At a glance, you can see dots of red and white.
When walking across the bamboo arch bridge, Jiang Xiaohua took a breath and exclaimed, "It smells so good."
"In the cold season, the cold fragrance of plum blossoms is even more refreshing."
The young man who led the way glanced at Jiang Xiaohua and seemed a little surprised.
Just as Jiang Xiaohua glanced over, the young man quickly lowered his head and made a gesture of invitation.
After crossing the small bridge, in front of you is the flower hall for receiving guests.
The maid in the house saw the guests arriving and lifted the heavy curtain from inside.
Jiang Xiaohua thanked her and walked in with her two children.
After crossing the threshold, the curtain behind him was lowered, and there was another curtain and a screen in front of him.
Turning the screen, a spacious living room suddenly opened up in front of me.
There are two rows of chairs on the left and right, with a black lacquered mother-of-pearl tea table placed between the chairs.
Directly in front of him, there was a man sitting there.
Chen Dawei smiled and ran forward, "Uncle Eighth!"
Chen Sheng ranks eighth among the many cousins in the family, so the younger generations call him Uncle Eighth.
He is twenty-one years old, his parents are dead, and he has not married yet. He is the only owner of this house.
Chen Sheng raised his eyes to look at his nephew, with a smile in his eyes, "Here he comes."
As if he hadn't seen Jiang Xiaohua and Liu Yong, he smiled and asked about his nephew's schoolwork.
For example, how has your performance been in school recently? Have you ever been punished by Old Master Ouyang?
Is there any benefit from the book I lent him to read before?
Chen Dawei answered one by one, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Jiang Xiaohua and Liu Yong.
Chen Sheng said, "Let me ask you a question, what are you looking at everywhere?"
"How can you sit still in class if your manners are so improper?"
Chen Dawei groaned a few times, and finally couldn't help but said, "Uncle Eighth, this is Aunt Jiang, and my classmate and friend Liu Yong. They have something to ask you!"
Chen Sheng was a little displeased, "You haven't achieved much in your studies, so you're so busy meddling in these nosy things?"
"Besides, you think they are classmates and friends, but you don't know that others just want to take advantage of you!"
Chen Dawei glanced at Liu Yong hurriedly, "Uncle Eighth, Liu Yong and Aunt Jiang didn't take advantage of me!"
"I brought them here myself!"
"Oh?" Chen Sheng sneered and finally looked at Jiang Xiaohua and her son who were still standing there.
"You are a child, and you are afraid of being sold, and you have to pay someone else."
Jiang Xiaohua was neither humble nor arrogant, neither shy nor angry. She raised her eyes lightly and looked at Chen Sheng.
Just looking at the attitude of the young man who was leading the way, she had already guessed it.
Chen Sheng must have thought that her merchants were vulgar and profit-seeking and did not hesitate to take advantage of young children.
So Chen Sheng invited her in, not to meet with customers and discuss business, but to show her authority in person.
Jiang Xiaohua cupped her hands and said, "Mr. Chen's love and care for his nephew is indeed touching."
"However, as Mr. Chen is young, he will not be like some old scholars who convict me based on mere speculation without giving me a chance to explain, right?"
Chen Sheng's expression tightened, and he frowned and said, "As expected of a businessman, he is very eloquent."
Jiang Xiaohua smiled slightly, "It is said that a scholar's tongue can defeat others without a fight."
"I'm just a businessman, how dare I show off in front of Mr. Chen?"
Chen Sheng was at a loss for words and said with a cold face, "What do you want to explain? Just tell me."
Jiang Xiaohua said, "First, I started taking stock of your store and selling it, and I fell in love with it."
"This matter was definitely not a spur-of-the-moment move because of the relationship between Dawei and you."
"This is recorded in the dental shop you entrusted to. You can check it at will."
"Secondly, Dawei and my four children are classmates and good friends."
"This matter is not a secret in Xingyuan Academy. You can go to Old Master Ouyang for confirmation."
"As for how I knew about Dawei's relationship with you."
"Yesterday, Dawei was playing at my house. My eldest son and I mentioned our plan to visit Mr. Chen today."
"The second son Liu Guang heard about it. It happened that he heard about your respectable cousin from Dawei."
"So I asked Dawei to help lead the way."
"I didn't lie to the child and asked Dawei to help. I said it openly."
Jiang Xiaohua's words were unhurried and well-founded.
Chen Sheng gradually sat up straight, his expression no longer as arrogant as before.
Jiang Xiaohua said, "I have finished saying what I need to say."
"Since Mr. Chen has some prejudice against me, I don't have to buy your shop."
She looked sideways at Liu Yong and said, "Yong'er, put down the gift and let's go."
Chen Dawei looked at his uncle, then at Jiang Xiaohua and Liu Yong, his face flushed with anxiety.
"Uncle Eighth, what Aunt Jiang told is the truth. It was me who said that I wanted to bring Aunt Jiang to see you!"
Chen Sheng gritted his teeth and said nothing, looking a little nervous.
Chen Dawei ran to chase Jiang Xiaohua again, "Aunt Jiang, don't be angry!"
"I didn't speak clearly, which caused Uncle Eight to misunderstand you. In fact, Uncle Eight is a very nice person!"
Jiang Xiaohua looked at Chen Dawei with a smile, "I'm not angry."
"You and I want to discuss business with Mr. Chen. Whether we can reach an agreement is normal. How can I blame you?"
Liu Yong also patted Chen Dawei on the shoulder comfortingly, saying that he was fine.
He glanced at Jiang Xiaohua secretly.
I found that this time, she was different from bargaining with others in the past.
She walked quickly and firmly, not caring whether Chen Sheng behind her would say anything to persuade her to stay.
Mom must be really angry, right? Liu Yong secretly guessed in his heart.
