After Chen Xing spoke impassionedly, everyone who was listening below also became excited and applauded, and the atmosphere in the store became lively for a while.

Sitting below, Gu Lang focused his eyes on Chen Xing above, watching him talking, watching him shining on the stage, gently curling the corners of his lips, he likes such an energetic Chen Xing who shot.

"Young master." Just as Gu Lang was watching Chen Xing and other people in the store talking about their store's plan and how to develop better in the future, Qiu Jiu's voice came from beside him.

Gu Lang barely took the time to give him a look, wanting to hear what he had to say.

Qiu Jiu was also unambiguous, and after receiving his young master's explicit instructions, he whispered next to him: "Young master, today Master Chen sat in the tea shed opposite our shop for a long time, and a customer in the shop also sat there for a long time. Go out and meet Master Chen."

Hearing Qiu Jiu's words, Gu Lang's expression didn't change for a moment. He nodded slowly after listening, which was regarded as a response to him.

Qiu Jiu wasn't sure what Gu Lang was thinking, seeing that Gu Lang didn't respond after he finished speaking, he silently backed away.

When Qiu Jiu left, Gu Lang turned his attention to Chen Xing who was in front of him again. Seeing that he was already working hard from everyone, he talked about the idea that everyone could be a big boss in the future. In short, the corner of his mouth curled up again. With a familiar gentle smile, he still likes to look at such an energetic Chen Xing. Every time he looks at him like this, he feels that such a shining Chen Xing is attracting him.

In the next few days, the business of Chen's small restaurant became better and better. Not only could the daily thirty tables be distributed within an hour, but there were even some people who didn't eat at their house because they came late. clamoring for a quarrel.

Seeing this, Chen Xing also changed from being flustered when he heard these things at the beginning, to being calm about doing what he should do after the quarrel. Anyway, those people are just talking and playing tricks, and they are all people who have a sense of propriety and can't do anything.

The reputation of Chen's small restaurant has also become bigger and bigger after being framed at the beginning, and now it is stubborn to keep [-] tables, and more and more people come, some even come from a hundred miles away , just to taste the delicacies of the legendary Chen family restaurant.

Looking at the daily income, Chen Xing became more and more motivated while being tired.He felt that at this rate, he would be able to afford a shop here in a short time.With the idea of ​​buying a house early, Chen Xing became more and more motivated to do things.

Chen family.

Ever since Chen Linger heard the conversation between her father and that person that day, she had kept it in her heart, especially after she came back and heard that the accountant of your small restaurant was very handsome, she began to have a vague guess in her heart, but the guess was vague. Vague.

It wasn't until Chen Ling'er asked the little maid beside her to find out about the restaurant, and learned that the small restaurant was opened by Chen Xing and Gu Lang, she suddenly knew where her unhappiness was. The lowly Chen family who hadn't seen her before even opened a shop before she knew it, and now she and Gu Lang are living a happy life.

When she heard the news, Chen Ling'er lost her temper in the room and beat all the things in the room, causing the servants around her to avoid touching her brow.

When Mrs. Chen heard the news, she only thought that she was in a bad mood because of the young master of the Zhao family and rewarded her with some jewelry, and the matter was over.The little maids around were always afraid of her, and they dared not show their anger when they saw her these days, for fear that they would be used to vent their anger.

After this situation lasted for several days, Chen Ling'er still didn't feel relieved until Miss Zhou sent her an invitation to have a gathering.

This kind of gathering is usually where a few of the ladies gather together to compare their newly bought clothes and jewelry, and show off their new gadgets.As the only daughter of the Chen family, Chen Ling'er has always been treated very well in their circle, so she was particularly willing to attend such gatherings in the past.

Only this time, after being depressed for several days, Chen Ling'er, who couldn't eat or sleep well, was not in the mood to attend their party, so she just wanted the maids around her to reject her.

But before Chen Linger's maid went out to ask someone to leave, the maid sent by Miss Zhou walked in.

Seeing this scene, Chen Linger's expression was a little displeased, her brows were wrinkled, and she looked at her dissatisfied and said: "You slave don't understand any rules! When I see your young lady, I will definitely let her take care of you." □, □□ you."

The servant girl has a melon-shaped face and an exquisite figure. When she heard Chen Linger's words, her face did not change. She first blessed her body in Chen Linger's direction, and said to Chen Linger with a smile:

"Miss, don't be angry, I also got the master's order, so I lost my sense of propriety. If you make the lady unhappy, just let my lady punish me, the servant will never have any complaints.

It's just that my young lady got a new gadget recently. I heard that the young lady is in a bad mood, so the servants must invite the young lady over, saying that the young lady might be happy after seeing it.The servant girl was also worried that the servants in the Miss's house hadn't conveyed it properly, so she boldly came in by herself. "

When Chen Ling'er heard her say this, the anger in her heart still subsided a little, and she was even vaguely curious about what she said.Therefore, after she just snorted softly, she agreed.

Seeing that Chen Ling'er agreed, the maid stopped talking, but stepped aside gently, waiting for Chen Ling'er to pack up and go back to Zhou's house with her.

Half an hour later, Chen Ling'er brought her servants to the Zhou mansion where she was invited, to Miss Zhou's courtyard, and even before entering the door, she heard the crisp laughter of many young girls from a long distance away.

Chen Ling'er frowned when she heard the sound, and complained, "It's really lively here today, and I don't know how many people are here."

The maid next to her accompanied her with low eyebrows, but no one answered.

Chen Ling'er didn't seem to care if anyone answered her, so after she finished speaking, she knocked on the door and walked in.

The Zhou family started out with silk. Although it is not as good as the Zhao family, the richest merchant in the area, it is also one of the best merchants in the local area. Therefore, the furnishings here are similar to those of the Chen family, and there does not seem to be much difference.

As soon as Chen Ling'er walked into the yard, she saw that almost all the young ladies who had played well with them in the past had come, sitting there chatting and laughing happily with Miss Zhou's family, it seemed extraordinarily lively.

Chen Linger paused as she walked over, and glanced at the skirt she was wearing.Very good, the style is the latest, the material is also very expensive, and the whole body is perfect.Well, there's nothing wrong with that.

After making sure that there was nothing wrong with her, Chen Linger showed a sweet smile and walked towards the group of ladies.

When Chen Linger walked towards them, Miss Zhou, who was the initiator of the party, saw it at a glance. When she saw that the smile on her face was not as haggard as she had heard, her eyes flickered, and then She also raised a smile, and said in a warm voice: "Ling'er, you are here."

"En." Chen Ling'er responded with a smile, and followed Miss Zhou's call to come to her side, found a seat and sat down.

Chen Ling'er had just sat down when someone beside him interrupted, "Ling'er, we all heard that you have been in a bad mood these days and shut yourself in the room for several days, we sent someone to invite you, you Don't come here, what happened?"

These young ladies have no other pastimes on weekdays. Apart from learning what every lady needs to learn, the rest of the time is to invite all kinds of young ladies to come to the party together, so the news between them is very well-informed. If something happened to that young lady, the other young ladies soon found out.

Although the young lady said she was concerned, her eyes were full of gossip as she stared at Chen Linger, as if she was very interested in the reason for her sudden tantrum.

Chen Ling'er squeezed her palm, but she was secretly cursing the person who spread her small words in her heart, but she still showed a gentle and harmless smile on her face, and said to them: "It's nothing, just simple I'm just in a bad mood, and I'm sorry, my sisters and sisters are worried."

"Oh~ so that's the case. I thought Ling'er was unhappy because of Zhao Ershao's affairs." His eyes were on Chen Linger and he scanned up and down, as if he wanted to see through her.

Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Chen Ling'er followed the voice and saw Miss Qian's family smiling ironically towards her with her chin raised.Looking at her proud eyes, Chen Linger silently clenched her fists.

"That's right, we all thought that you were so depressed because of Mr. Zhao's affairs." Before the smoke between Chen Linger and Miss Qian cleared, the other lady casually opened her mouth.

Chen Ling'er originally thought they were joking about her and Zhao Ershao, but when she heard this, she felt that she had misunderstood, so she asked directly, "What are you talking about? What's wrong with Mr. Zhao?"

Hearing her question, the rest of the people looked at each other for a while, and finally that Miss Qian said, "Ling'er, you don't know, do you? A while ago, the second son of the Zhao family went out to play and accidentally gave his leg to him." It was broken. The mother of the Zhao family felt that his son was really unlucky during this period, so she wanted to make an appointment for the second son of Zhao, thinking that after the engagement, the bad luck of the second son of Zhao would be gone."

When Ms. Qian said this, she looked straight at Chen Ling'er, her eyes full of hopeful expressions.After all, everyone knew that the Second Young Master Zhao was very fond of Chen Linger, and if he wanted to get engaged, she would be the first one he would look for.But they also knew that Chen Ling'er had always looked down on Zhao Ergong.

As expected, Miss Qian could think of these things, and other people could naturally think of them too. They all turned their heads to look at Chen Ling'er in unison, wanting to see her reaction.

Chen Ling'er herself had thought of this too. Thinking of what her mother had said to her some time ago, she would have wondered if her family had engaged her to the Second Young Master Zhao without telling her.

It's just that although Chen Ling'er was muttering in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, especially when she met the unclear gazes of the people around her, she raised a smiling face and said lightly: "Since Mrs. Zhao has already made a decision , then naturally there is a decision in my heart, why should we outsiders arrange it."

Chen Linger's words were so light and light that those who were waiting to see her jokes couldn't find a point to laugh at her.

Only Ms. Qian still seemed unwilling to give up and asked: "Ling'er, when we heard the news, we all thought that you were the most likely to marry into the Zhao family. Even when you disappeared for a few days, we thought you He stayed at home and prepared to discuss the marriage with the Zhao family."

Chen Linger looked at Miss Qian who repeatedly poked at her sore spot, twitched the corner of her mouth, and said calmly: "Sister Qian, you care so much about my family and the Zhao family, if you don't know, I'm afraid you'll think that it's because you want to marry into the Zhao family, that's why you pay so much attention to our affairs. But yes, if Sister Qian can marry into the Zhao family, I'm afraid that Sister Qian's family will also be able to raise their value. However, Sister Qian really doesn’t pick anything, even that kind of thing.”

"You!" Ms. Qian became angry all of a sudden. Although she had this intention, being pointed out in public still made her feel a little annoyed. She immediately stood up and wanted to argue with Chen Linger.

The young ladies who were still watching the play saw that the two were about to fight, and they all began to persuade them to start a fight.

"Forget it, forget it, let's say a few words less." As the host this time, Miss Zhou looked at the two people who were about to quarrel, and said with a smile: "Everyone is just joking, why take it seriously?"

After finishing speaking, Ms. Zhou turned her head to look at Chen Linger, and said softly to her: "I heard that you are not in a good mood these two days, although I don't know why you are unhappy, but I recently bought a new thing, I feel quite For fun. I’ll take you to see it, maybe you’ll be happier after seeing it. Let’s go, I’ll take you there to see it.”

Miss Zhou has always been very kind to Chen Linger, so Chen Linger is also willing to listen to her. After hearing what she said, she immediately stood up with Miss Zhou and walked towards the place she said.

After the two left, the remaining ladies rolled their eyes at the direction in which Chen Linger left, especially Miss Qian, who was choking with Chen Linger just now, said directly, "Look at her appearance , I really thought that I would soon be the second young lady of the Zhao family."

The rest of the people listened to Miss Qian's words and didn't continue. They all knew that Zhao Ershao liked Chen Ling'er, and based on the relationship between the Zhao family and the current Chen family, it was highly possible for them to be together.That being the case, anyway, without their participation, what are they making a fuss about here?

On the other side, Miss Zhou directly pulled Chen Linger into a water pavilion, took down the bird cage hanging on the corridor, and handed it to Chen Linger.

Chen Ling'er took the thing, feeling a little strange, what's so interesting about a birdcage.

Ms. Zhou seemed to know what she was thinking, and slightly twisted the handle of the birdcage, and saw a small bird rising up from the bottom, and then spread its wings and called twice, waiting for it to cry. After it was over, the bottom rose again.

Looking at the little birds that lined up one by one, and then disappeared one by one, Chen Linger only thought it was quite interesting.

Ms. Zhou saw that her face finally showed some kindness, and the smile on her face became more sincere, and she said to her: "That's right, there is no such thing as bitterness and hatred, why bother They all have a sullen face, making themselves look a few years older for no reason."

Chen Linger blushed when she heard her words, and said a little embarrassedly: "Sister Zhou, I'm not."

"Okay, I didn't come here specifically to make fun of you. I really treat you as my own sister, so I just can't bear to see you sad. If you have any embarrassing things, talk to my sister. If my sister can help, I will definitely help you." will help you."

After Ms. Zhou's soft words, Chen Ling'er, who has always been pungent, couldn't help being moved. She took Miss Zhou's hand, pursed her lips, and finally said, "I don't want to marry Mr. Zhao, But my parents disagree. Sister, what do you think I should do?"

Hearing what Chen Linger said, Miss Zhou's eyes flickered, the tenderness on her face was still there, but there was a little more unexplainable emotion, "If my sister really doesn't like the second son of the Zhao family, she will naturally have a way not to marry him. Yes, it's just..."

"Sister Zhou!"

Before Miss Zhou could finish speaking, she heard a noisy female voice, and then saw several ladies who were supposed to be in the front hall walking towards them talking and laughing.

"Sister Zhou, we discussed it, and I won't eat at your place today." The one who spoke was a girl in a green skirt, about sixteen years old, with a particularly lively smile.

When Miss Zhou heard her words, she turned her head and glanced at the people who followed, with a somewhat understanding smile on her face, "Since you are not eating at my residence, why are you here now?"

The leading girl stuck out her tongue, looked at Ms. Zhou and said playfully, "Sister Zhou is really smart. We plan to go to the 'Chen's Small Restaurant' for dinner later. We are afraid that there will be no place for us if we go late, so we come to invite my sister and Mrs. Zhou. Let's go together. Sister Zhou, are you going?"

Seeing her playful appearance, Miss Zhou gently scratched her upturned nose, and said in a warm voice: "You all have gone, so I naturally have to try it to see what kind of delicacy it is before you can hook it." You can't even look down on my family's food."

Seeing that Ms. Zhou agreed, the rest of the people cheered. Only Chen Ling'er, who heard the name of the Chen family restaurant, stood there in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Ling'er, what are you doing standing there, let's go. These little girls, they heard that the wind is like rain. They just said that they were going to a small restaurant for dinner, and now they are walking away. Let's go, we too Follow the past, so as not to be left behind."

Miss Zhou walked for a while, and when she realized that Chen Linger hadn't followed, she turned her head and said to her.

Chen Ling'er hesitated for a moment, looked at Miss Zhou who was waiting for her, and finally followed her up.

A group of ladies said this enthusiastically, got into the carriage prepared by Zhou's family, and then came to the door of Chen's small restaurant.

Chen Ling'er looked at the small restaurant in front of her, which was more stylish and better than she imagined, and lightly pursed her lips, feeling a little nervous for some reason.

The group of them took the sign and went in. The first time they stepped into the hall, Chen Linger's eyes were attracted by the man on the counter.The man who was still somewhat sick before, I don't know if it was because he hadn't seen him for a long time, or for some other reason, but he looked even more attractive without that sickness.Like a piece of jade pendant that was originally beautiful, after some mysterious ceremony, it completely bloomed its brilliance.

When Chen Linger saw this, she couldn't take her eyes off him, until a polite question came from beside her, "Miss, do you want a private room or eat in the lobby?" "We want a private room." As The host this time, Ms. Zhou was very generous and arranged everything in an orderly manner.

"Okay, there just happens to be an empty box, please ladies come with me."

Chen Linger followed the waiter to the back box. When she was leaving, she still couldn't help turning her head to look at the man at the counter. She saw that the man was lowering his head and counting the amount of the bill with the guest who was about to leave. Did not glance in her direction.

For some reason, Chen Ling'er felt extremely lost in her heart, and she didn't recover until she entered the box and finished ordering food.

"Linger, what's the matter with you?" Miss Zhou who was sitting next to her looked at Chen Linger's appearance, and whispered, "Are you talking to that accountant..."

Hearing this sentence, Chen Ling'er was shocked all over, and turned to look at her, with a bit of panic in her eyes that had been poked into her heart.

Ms. Zhou looked at her with a somewhat clear look in her eyes, but her tone was still extraordinarily gentle, "Don't worry, I just made a random guess. Don't worry, I won't tell you about it. for someone else.

It's just that you can think about it, but you can't do anything out of the ordinary, after all, the gentleman is a man with a husband, and he doesn't know what kind of person he is to be worthy of such a son. "

Hearing Miss Zhou's words, Chen Ling'er saw Chen Xing's appearance again, always cowering in front of her, like a villain who couldn't hold his head up.How could such a person be worthy of someone like Gu Lang.

Miss Zhou looked at the changing expression on Chen Linger's face, and a few traces of sarcasm appeared on her gentle face.She originally thought that Chen Ling'er didn't like Young Master Zhao because of his appearance, but she didn't expect that Miss Chen already had a lover in her heart.

Seeing Chen Linger's constantly changing expression, Ms. Zhou sighed secretly in her heart. She felt that there must be another excitement in the future, but she didn't know how big the excitement would be. It was really exciting!

While the ladies in the box were performing plastic sisterhood, each with their own plans, Qiu Jiu outside touched Gu Lang after delivering the menu to the kitchen, and looked at his expressionless master, He asked in a low voice: "My lord, that young lady of the Chen family looks weird, do you want to send someone to watch her?"

Gu Lang gently fiddled with the abacus under his hand, making a "cracking" sound, thinking of the way the woman looked at him just now, obsession, greed, jealousy, jealousy, everything was an emotion that disgusted him, and the voice of the answer It was also a little cold, "No, it's of no value."
