Marry a concubine? Reborn to move out of the mansion and marry a general

The next day, when the sun was already high in the sky, Gu Feiwan was woken up by Qingshuang:

"Girl, get up! The shopkeeper Cheng is sitting like a rock at the door!"

Gu Feiwan was so tired that she was about to fall apart. In a daze, she suddenly remembered that she had an appointment with Cheng Sen to inspect the store today, so she quickly threw off the thin quilt and got up:

"Hurry up and do my makeup!"

As soon as I sat down at the dressing table, I saw two bright red marks on my exposed neck!

Qingshuang lowered her head and chuckled. Gu Feiwan blushed and cursed Ning Weizhou in her heart.

"Find me a dress with a higher collar!"

After all, it was Nanny Zhu who had experience. As soon as Gu Feiwan finished speaking, Nanny Zhu came over holding a piece of clothing:

"I'm ready, girl, change quickly!"

Gu Feiwan hurriedly dressed up and was forced by Doctor Song to have breakfast before rushing to the gate.

Cheng Sen was sitting upright at the doorway of the inn. He had no resentment when he saw Gu Feiwan, but stood up and bowed:

"I usually get up early to practice boxing, and I thought I would wait here at the inn anyway, and I might as well take the opportunity to have another breakfast. I'm really disturbing my host!"

Gu Feiwan naturally said it was okay. The sun was almost overhead. Could she really say it was too early?

Cheng Sen pointed outside and said, "The carriage is outside, please come in, sir!"

Gu Feiwan walked out of the gate and saw that the reins of the carriage were tied to the stone lion at the door of the inn, and there was no driver waiting by the side.

Cheng Sen took two steps forward and untied the reins: "This horse is fed by me, just listen to me. Today I will drive the horse for you!"

Gu Feiwan couldn't help but look at the horse twice more when he heard that. As expected, the horse was shiny all over, and there was a hint of arrogance in its pearl-like eyes.

But when Gu Feiwan got on the carriage, the horse just stood there motionless, only shaking its ears at the end.

This inn was located in the downtown area, and the carriage turned a corner and arrived at the bustling street.

"Boss, this is a ready-made clothing shop. What I'm wearing is from this shop. After a set of punches, the stitches are still tight, which shows that the embroiderers are serious about their work."

Cheng Sen sat on the shaft of the cart, pointed at a shop in front with his whip and said,

"The shop also accepts custom-made work from various mansions. The profit here is high. I have reminded that the embroiderers and servants who go to the mansions to measure the clothes for the masters must look dignified, not too pretty or ugly, and speak softly and gently. Another thing is that when measuring clothes for the male masters, there must be a servant accompanying them and they are not allowed to leave for a moment."

Upon hearing this, Gu Feiwan sincerely admired Cheng Sen. Although he looked like a gangster, he was actually a careful person!

When an embroiderer measures clothes for her male master, if the man is good-looking, she is afraid that the mistress of the mansion will become jealous, and she is also afraid that the male master will have bad intentions.

Having a servant accompany him all the time can help avoid suspicion.

The Gu family certainly wasn't the only clothing store in the city. The ladies in the back house always had the final say on matters of custom-made clothes in various mansions.

Cheng Sen's approach not only reassured the mistresses of each mansion, but also protected his own embroiderers. It was a two-pronged approach!

When the clerk in the clothing shop saw Cheng Sen's carriage, he ran into the shop and called the shopkeeper,

When the shopkeeper arrived at the door, the carriage just stopped.

"Boss Cheng, what brings you here?"

Cheng Sen pointed back and said, "Master, come and see, I am just a driver today."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately bowed towards the carriage and said, "It turns out that the boss has arrived. I was not able to greet you in time. Please don't blame me, boss!"

Qingshuang lifted the carriage curtain. Seeing Cheng Sen still sitting steadily on the shaft, Gu Feiwan also sat still and said to the outside with a smile:

"I just have nothing to do, so I'm looking around. You don't have to be polite. The shopkeeper Cheng said you did a good job, so I'm relieved. Just go and get busy!"

After Gu Feiwan finished speaking, Cheng Sen took over the conversation: "Okay, the boss has praised you for your good work. I'll have someone send a plaque over and you can hang it in the shop. When your colleagues see it, they will naturally be very envious. Get busy!"

The owner of the clothing shop kept thanking him until the carriage drove away.

"To be honest with you, this guy and I had an argument. If he were to come into the shop, he would definitely find an opportunity to complain to you!"

After walking away, Cheng Sen looked back and grinned.

"It seems that you and this shopkeeper are close friends!" How could Gu Feiwan not understand the ways of the world?

If they were not close friends, Cheng Sen should have handled the matter impartially, led Gu Feiwan off the carriage, and walked around the shop. He would have praised those who did well, and would have scolded those who did not do well.

As for complaining to Gu Feiwan, that would never happen.

Gu Feiwan had just arrived and had only met these shopkeepers yesterday. He had no idea of ​​their personalities or tempers. How could those shopkeepers dare to rashly file a complaint against a major shopkeeper?

Cheng Sen didn't even get off the carriage, but instead made a few jokes and left. If it were another shopkeeper, he would definitely be angry.

This was a chance to show off in front of the boss alone. Besides, Gu Feiwan had also looked through the account books of the shop and found that it was done very well.

The shopkeeper has made a great contribution to run a clothing store so well in a practical area like Western Shu.

Cheng Sen chuckled and said, "To be honest, sir, he is my childhood friend. We grew up together collecting bird eggs. Now that I am the boss, he has become my subordinate. He always dislikes me and wants to say something bad about me!"

"It's naturally good that we have a bond since childhood. It's also a blessing for the Gu family to have you working for us!"

When his subordinates did a good job, Gu Feiwan was never stingy with rewards and praise.

As they were talking, the carriage stopped at a tavern. It was lunchtime and the tavern was crowded with people. From time to time, customers were happy and talked loudly.

Cheng Sen drove the carriage to the alley of the tavern, pointed at the tavern and said:

"Boss, this is the largest wine shop in Qingshan City. The people here don't like anything else but to eat beef and mutton and drink a pot of strong liquor, so we have invited old hunters from the mountains to the wine shop. They are good at hunting and cooking meat. Business has always been good, and this is also a shop that can make money."

Qing Shuang interrupted: "Then why don't we go in? The girl didn't eat anything this morning, she must be hungry now!"

Cheng Sen immediately jumped off the carriage and said, "Boss, the owner of the wine shop must be very busy right now. If we go in, it will only cause trouble. Why don't I take you to a quiet place? The owner's cooking skills are the best in the whole of Xishu!"

Gu Feiwan raised his eyebrows and said, "Today, I will follow the arrangements made by the shopkeeper!"

Hearing this, Cheng Sen smiled happily: "The general said that the boss is very easy to talk to, and it really is true!"

Gu Feiwan also laughed: "When we get to that quiet place, Manager Cheng, why don't you tell me about your relationship with the general?"
