start to be happy

The next morning, Butler Qiao knocked on the door.

"Master Chen, please get up, today is your first day taking over the business, please don't be late." Butler Qiao stood at the door and said sternly.

Chen Chen who was still asleep suddenly jumped up.

"Ah...Butler Qiao...I see."

"Then I will retire."

The room was still pitch black, Chen Chen wiped his face and was about to get up.Really, do you want someone to sleep?

Dressed neatly and washed well, Chen Chen ate breakfast in a daze, and when he came to the gate, he saw Butler Qiao standing there.

Chen Chen stepped forward helplessly, "Butler Qiao, let's go."

Butler Qiao leaned forward slightly, expressionless, "Yes."

Butler Qiao is leading the way, and the two of them can walk quietly to the street.

Cross a street and come to a street full of shops.Seeing that many shops were already open for business, Chen Chen couldn't help sighing that the ancient people were really hardworking.

After a while, the two of them came to a shop that looked old.

"Master Chen, this is the silk shop of our Qi family. It has been in business for decades. Although it can't keep up with those old brands, it still has its own old customers, and it has always been good."

Seeing batches of fabrics neatly stacked in the store, Chen Chen couldn't help asking: "Do you only sell silk?"

"No, we also make ready-made clothes. We also sell ordinary linen and cotton."

"Can I take a look?"

"Of course, Master Chen." He turned sideways, ready to show Chen Chen.

"...Wait a minute, Butler Qiao, why did you call me Master Chen?" I didn't notice just now, I was called "Master Chen" before, why did I call him Master Chen all night?

Butler Qiao turned around and explained calmly: "You are already the son-in-law of the Qi family, and you will accept business from the Qi family in the future, so of course you are the master."

"No...Didn't I say yesterday that I was only working for Mr. Qi?"

"It's a matter of time."

"No... I have no intention of accepting these deals."

Butler Qiao finally raised his head, and looked at Chen Chen with calm eyes, "Do you want to leave?"

It was clearly a question sentence but said in a positive tone.

"I……"

"You want to abandon the son?"

"not me……"

"What do you want? Do you want to hurt the Qi family?" There was a stern flash in the eyes that had never been waved, but it made people feel cold all over their bodies despite their expressionless face.

Looking at Steward Qiao like this, Chen Chen didn't know what to say, "...I never thought of hurting the Qi family."

"Then what are you thinking?" The plain voice was full of sharpness, "You want the property of the Qi family? Do you want to abandon Young Master Qiao? Do you want to leave? Do you want to deny this marriage?"

Chen Chen was a little anxious, "No, I never thought about it that way!!"

"Then what are you thinking?" Butler Qiao took a step forward and asked.

"I...I just want a place where I can settle down." Chen Chen was a little frustrated, he didn't want to hurt anyone.

"Then you can use Mr. Qiao, and then throw him away!"

"I never thought about it that way!" Chen Chen stroked his forehead.

"You received the hydrangea, you became a relative!"

"I didn't do it voluntarily, I was forced by Mr. Qi!"

"You could say no, but you didn't."

"...I don't know what to say to the old man."

"It's all excuses."

Chen Chen was dumbfounded.

...Yes, these are all excuses.

He wanted a place to settle down.When he first arrived in this world, even though he was as calm as him, he was still in a state of anxiety.He was unfamiliar with this world, and he wanted to find a place where he could feel at ease, so when they got married, he subconsciously did not resist.After all, he still took advantage of Qi Qiao.

"...I'm sorry, I didn't think about it that way...I didn't know it would happen."

"Then what do you think?" Butler Qiao still questioned.

"I...I will help Mr. Qi take care of his business...I...I will not endanger the Qi family. "

"What about Mr. Qiao!"

"...I will help him find a good home..."

Butler Qiao stared at Chen Chen, "Brother can only marry once!"

Chen Chen opened his mouth, unable to speak.

"After all, you still hurt Mr. Qiao and the Qi family."

"..."

Butler Qiao took a few steps forward, came in front of Chen Chen, stared into his eyes, and said seriously: "If that's all, then...you'd better go—Master doesn't want me to kill people,"

Chen Chen's pupils shrank instantly.

Butler Qiao turned around slowly, preparing to leave.

"Please wait a moment!" Chen Chen subconsciously called out to Butler Qiao, "I... have nowhere to go, and I don't want to hurt Qi Qiao, I..."

Butler Qiao stood there with his back to Chen Chen.

Chen Chen took a deep breath, "Housekeeper Qiao, I can't like Qi Qiao, but I don't want to hurt him either. I am grateful to the Qi family. If I leave now, I always feel sorry for the Qi family and Qi Qiao. But I won't leave , I have no other choice but to help Mr. Qi do business. Butler Qiao, I... don't know what to do..."

"...You stay and help the master do business first, if you dare to cause the Qi family to suffer a little loss..."

"I see!"

Looking at Butler Qiao's back, Chen Chen heaved a sigh of relief.To be honest, he didn't want to go.It doesn't matter if he is selfish, but in this strange world, he couldn't give up on the first straw he caught.

I followed Butler Qiao to the inside, looked at some fabrics and ready-made clothes, and learned about the management of the cloth store and other knowledge.Then the two left.

Then I went to restaurants, inns, bookstores, banks, iron shops, pharmacies, etc. Basically, Chen Chen simply slipped through it, knowing that the Qi family basically does all kinds of business, and there are one or two shops of all kinds. Not old fashioned, but not bad either.

At noon, I had a simple meal in the tavern outside, and when I returned to Qi's house at night, Chen Chen was basically exhausted and paralyzed, dragging his legs, and when he came back, he threw himself into the chair, and then he was groaned by the chair, I can't bear to get up.

Qi Qiao came out of the back room and saw Chen Chen spread out into a ball, she couldn't help panicking, "What's wrong?"

"Well...it's okay." Chen Chen reluctantly sat up, smiled and said to Qi Qiao: "Butler Qiao took me to see the shop, and I got a general understanding. After walking for a while, I'm not used to it, so I'm a little tired ,It's fine."

"That's it," Qi Qiao felt relieved, "Then... I'll get you some water to wipe your face!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, and Chen Chen didn't even have time to stop him.

Chen Chen felt even more guilty.He doesn't like Qi Qiao, but Qi Qiao has done a lot for him, and all he can do is to give Qi Qiao a name... a false name.

Thinking of what Butler Qiao said to him this morning, his heart hurts... He owes Qi Qiao too much.

An existence that is equivalent to a "woman" in this world, who was forced to marry him, but he abandoned him...

Cover your face with one hand - what a bastard you are!

When Qi Qiao came in with warm water, he saw Chen Chen like this, and couldn't help feeling a little worried, "What's wrong?"

Chen Chen put down his hands and smiled, "It's okay!"

Seeing that Chen Chen's expression was normal, Qi Qiao was relieved. As for whether there was anything else, Qi Qiao didn't ask too much - he just hoped that Chen Chen was fine, and he didn't want to hide anything from him. care.

"That's good. Come on, wash your face first, and dinner will be ready in a while."

Chen Chen sat up straight, washed his face and wiped his hands, Qiqiao smiled.

Qi Qiao blushed a little, and went out with the corners of her mouth slightly hooked.

When I came outside, my heart was still sweet.He smiled to himself...but he would go.Thinking of this, Qi Qiao's heart sank and her face turned pale.Besides, how could he like him when he grew up like this!

What a fool! !

Qi Qiao took a deep breath, suppressed her boredom, turned around and went back to the room, and had dinner with Chen Chen.

After the meal, Butler Qiao didn't come over, but ordered a servant to come and tell Chen Chen to rest early, there are still many places to go tomorrow.

Chen Chen heaved a sigh of relief, and fell asleep early.

On the other side, Mr. Qi, who also had dinner, waited for Butler Qiao to arrive.

Sitting in the hall, Mr. Qi chuckled, "How is it?! Boy Chen is not bad!"

Butler Qiao sipped his eyes slightly, and recounted the morning conversation.

Mr. Qi followed Butler Qiao's words and put away the smile on his face. After Butler Qiao finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, and finally smiled. This time he smiled very happily.

"Hahaha~~~~~~ Smell it, let me just say it, boy Chen is a good boy, you will like him!"

Butler Qiao stood there without speaking.

"Wen Zhi, you are always so serious! In fact, there is no need for that! I believe in you, and in the same way, I also believe in Chen Chen, just like before! Don't be so serious, give that child a chance! Just like I gave You have the same chance!"

"... yes, sir."

"Oh... what if kid Chen chooses to leave? What will you do?" After talking about the serious things, old man Qi began to be dishonest again.

"...I heard that there was a robbery in the north, who would do anything to kill and rob, and no one noticed when one or two people disappeared."

Seeing Butler Qiao's earnest expression, Mr. Qi spit out immediately, "Puff...cough cough...hehehe~~~~~~ You really know how to think!"

Mr. Qi stood up with a smile, came to Butler Qiao, and patted him on the shoulder, "Wenzhi, I know you wouldn't do that! That kid, you obviously like it too! Otherwise, he wouldn't be with Qiao Get married safely and securely. You should take care of those troublemakers!"

Butler Qiao rolled his eyes slightly and did not answer.

Mr. Qi didn't expect him to answer, but just looked into the distance with a smile, "I know you are afraid that he will have some schemes for the Qi family, so you tried it out to see if he is suitable for Qiao! You don't need to be such a bad guy! That kid won't let us down!"

"...He still needs to exercise! Too childish!"

"Okay! Don't be so stubborn! You obviously like that child very much, but you insist on putting on such a villain's face, why bother!"

"...Master, it's time to read this month's account book!"

"... Hehe... Hehe... Wenzhi, you can't force me to read the account book just out of embarrassment!" Mr. Qi took a step back, smiling a little forcedly.

Butler Qiao was unmoved, and still said seriously: "Master, it's time to look at the account book."

"Ah~~~~~ The child's father told me to go back for something! Why did I forget! Hehe~~~~~ I'm going first!"

After speaking, I immediately oiled the soles of my feet and slipped away.

Butler Qiao looked at the man running fast who didn't meet his age at all, with a blank expression on his face, as if he had known it for a long time.Then turn around and leave.Came to the study, picked up the ledger, and came to Mr. Qi's room...

Grandpa Qi burst into tears as he looked at a stack of ledgers of the same height!

It's so annoying to do business or something!Butler Joe is so annoying!Ledgers are the most annoying thing!

The child's father, please comfort me!

Turn around and rush towards Daddy Qi...

"Master, you can't always push things to Wenzhi! Wenzhi has already taken care of all the affairs of the Qi family! You can't be so lazy anymore! Come on, help Wenzhi look at the account book!" Qi Daddy is very serious .

Mr. Qi is petrified...

No! ! ! ! ! ! !Has the child's father abandoned me? !Forsake me!

Ignoring old man Qi's stiff body and bitter expression, the two moved the ledger in front of him together, urging old man Qi to read it quickly.

No matter how reluctant Mr. Qi was, with the expression of "you are bad money, you abandon me", Butler Qiao remained expressionless from the beginning to the end.
