lord and beauty

With Jiang Beimu by her side, Mrs. Shi had a meal with Tan Qiu and the others honestly with her tail between her legs. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Shi did not do anything out of the ordinary. Jiang Beimu also ate in a proper manner without saying a single extra word. Even more gloating, I wonder if you want to have dinner together next time, anyway, it's not him who is embarrassed.

When Tan Qiu was full of wine and food, Jiang Beimu lightly dropped his chopsticks and said calmly, "Are you full? Then let's go."

Mrs. Shi seemed to be pardoned, she hurriedly got up and said: "Today I count as the host, I will settle the bill, let's go first."

Jiang Beimu opened his mouth to speak, but Tan Qiu gently pinched his thigh under the table.

Jiang Beimu's words came to his lips, and he took advantage of the situation and said, "Then Mrs. Cheng is kind."

"It should be, it should be." Madam Shi smiled at Tan Qiu and the others, holding up her skirt, and walked out of the cubicle quickly.

In the room, after Mrs. Shi left, Tan Qiucai restrained his smile a little, and said to Tan Yan beside him, "Stop interacting with her from now on, she's full of bad things, maybe she's going to hurt someone."

Tan Yan nodded, and responded obediently: "Understood."

Only then was Tan Qiu satisfied.

"Ah...! I just forgot one thing." Tan Yan suddenly said, with a look of worry on her face, "I forgot to ask where Mr. Xu's house is, and how to give him the cake when the time comes ah."

"It's because he wants something from you, so he will naturally come to visit again." Jiang Beimu said lightly.

Tan Yan was skeptical, but sighed helplessly, "Okay."

A few people sat down for a while before getting up, but Mrs. Shi never returned. Jiang Beimu asked before arriving at the room, only to learn that Mrs. Shi had paid the money and left without a word. Tan Qiu checked with the accountant's clerk several times, and was able to confirm that Mrs. Shi had indeed left after paying the bill, but she didn't show any expression when she left, as if she was hurrying to go somewhere.

Tan Qiu was happy for her to leave, so she and Jiang Beimu sent Tan Yan back to the Jiang Mansion first, and the two of them went back to the house to warm up for a while, and after Lazy woke up, they went back to the shop in the carriage.

Tan Qiu leaned against Jiang Beimu's arms as if she had no bones, humming softly, saying that her hands were sore for a while, and her feet were numb for a while, and she was too delicate.Jiang Beimu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he enjoyed it, so he gently rubbed his fingertips with sore hands, and pinched his thigh muscles when his feet were numb, without showing any signs of impatience.

"If you're not feeling well, I'll send you home to rest first."

"Well, it was quite uncomfortable just now, but it's much better if you rub it for me." Naturally, Tan Qiu didn't want to go back and wait alone, knowing that Jiang Beimu was telling him to just accept it, so he responded with a smile.

"What are you going to do with the door of the shop? Will the opening of the shop be postponed?" Tan Qiuyi asked softly in Jiang Beimu's arms.

"I've already told Xiao Ye that tomorrow he will specially notify the people in the City Lord's Mansion. With his temperament, [-]% of them will bring a bunch of people with him. It's too late to notify one by one at this time, or Let’s open the store as scheduled.”

Jiang Beimu bowed his head, gently put Tan Qiu's hand in his palm, and rubbed his fingertips against the back of Tan Qiu's hand. Tan Qiu's hands were itchy when he touched him, and he couldn't help but shrink back, but Jiang Beimu Grab it.

"What about that door?"

"I have arranged for someone to go to the master to re-measure it. In the next few days, I will find a few people to take turns to look at it." Jiang Beimu disagreed.

"Okay." After Tan Qiu heard it, he didn't take it to heart any more. In short, Jiang Beimu was supporting him when the sky fell, so he wasn't worried at all.

When we arrived at the shop, Tan Qiu couldn't help much. In the shop, Jiang Beimu called a few clerks in advance to briefly discuss the number of pastries that should be served tomorrow, and then went to the warehouse to check them to make sure they were correct. When it got darker, a few guys were dismissed and went home.

Tan Qiu crawled by the desk, watched Jiang Beimu count and cross out items of pastries with a pen, and couldn't help asking: "You sent everyone home, are you going to sleep here tonight? is it on?"

Jiang Beimu put his pen down gently without raising his head, "If you want to stay here for one night, it's not that the master can't watch the door."

Hearing what he said, Tan Qiu knew that Jiang Beimu had already taken care of everything, and couldn't help laughing: "There is no bed here, how can I sleep on a hard stool, why don't I go and send someone to move the bed at home?" come over."

"This reminds me." Jiang Beimu smiled, closed the account book leisurely, leaned back comfortably on the back of the chair, folded his hands on his lower abdomen, "I will find someone to make a small bed tomorrow." Put it here so that you can take a rest when you check the accounts in the future."

"I can't understand your account books, what am I doing here to check the accounts?" Tan Qiu was puzzled.

"Who said it was this ledger."

"What is that?" Tan Qiu looked suspiciously at Jiang Beimu, guessing what he meant.

Jiang Bei admired but smiled and said nothing.

Suddenly, Tan Qiu shuddered and looked at Jiang Beimu in disbelief, his cheeks flushed involuntarily, and he muttered, "You... are not serious."

Jiang Beimu raised his eyebrows, with an expression that I didn't say anything, watching Tanqiu even more embarrassing, as if he thought too much himself.

But as soon as he saw Jiang Beimu's slightly raised lips, he knew that he must have no good intentions.

Tan Qiu snorted angrily, and turned to flip through the other books left on the table.

Jiang Beimu also knew that he was too funny, so he smiled and turned to other things.

When the two returned to Jiang's mansion, it was already midnight.

As soon as he entered the door, Tan Qiu felt his index finger twitched by the scent that hit his face.

"It smells so good, what is this doing?" Tan Qiu took a deep breath and asked with a smile.

The maid who came to greet me heard the question and replied: "Miss Yan and the old lady are making cakes in the kitchen. Miss Yan even gave us a lot of cakes just now."

It was only now that Tan Qiu remembered the incident during the day, and was a little surprised. Tan Yan was so keen on this incident, it seemed that it was more difficult than he expected.

"Then you guys share the food. I'll go to the kitchen to see them." After Tan Qiu finished speaking, she handed the fox fur cloak to the maid, and turned to go to the kitchen.

As soon as Tan Qiu left this room, Jiang Beimu stopped his horse and walked to the front hall.

"Where's Qiu'er?" Jiang Bei murmured.

The maid still came up to help Jiang Beimu remove the cloak, and replied respectfully: "Young master has gone to the kitchen."

Jiang Beimu nodded, "Is Zhou Zhang back yet?"

The maid froze in place, and a slightly longer maid on the other side hurriedly replied: "I'm back, and I've only been back not long ago."

"Well, go get some hot water." Jiang Beimu nodded, and after giving orders, he turned and walked towards the backyard.

At this time, it was time for the servants in the mansion to eat and rest, and there were only a few maids talking in the backyard. Seeing Jiang Beimu passing by, they behaved well and did not dare to take a breath. Jiang Beimu walked all the way, ignoring They followed them until they reached Zhou Zhang's courtyard.

Ruan Yue's injury was not yet healed, and she went to bed early after eating. Jiang Beimu came in and took a look. Seeing that the lights in her room had been turned off, she slowed down and walked to Zhouzhang's door.

There are candles in the house, and the sound of the piano is heard intermittently, but the music is very dry, as if it is a beginner who has heard it for a long time, and it is even a bit harsh.

Jiang Beimu knocked on the door, not loudly, but the music in the room stopped suddenly.

"it's me."

Jiang Beimu said in a low voice outside the door.

There was a moment of silence in the room before Zhou Zhang's lazy voice came, "Keep playing yours."

When Jiang Beimu heard the words, he pushed the door open and entered.

Zhou Zhang sat with his back to the door, and there was a jar of wine on the table, from which the rich and mellow aroma leaked out. Zhou Zhang held the porcelain bowl, raised his head and drank the wine in the bowl, burped, and drunkenly said: "Why don't you invite me, the general?" Enter yourself."

Jiang Beimu didn't answer, just swept the decorations in the house briefly, and then his eyes fell on the young man who was playing the piano, and the young man was also looking at him. At this time, his eyes met, and the young man was as fierce as a cat whose tail was trampled on. She flinched, and hurriedly looked away, not knowing whether it was fear or nervousness, her fingering was disordered, and the music became more and more hoarse.

Although Jiang Beimu has a different temperament, he can still hear that the tune has gone too far.

Zhou Zhang reprimanded impatiently: "It was played wrong."

"I..." The boy's face was pale.

"Let him go down and rest for a while, his hands are swollen." Jiang Beimu casually swept the boy's red and swollen fingertips, waved his hand, and signaled the boy to go out, while he went to sit opposite Zhou Zhang.

The author says:

The family cat ran away and disappeared for a few days. When it was found, its hind leg was seriously injured, bloody and bloody. Hey... I was really devastated because of it. Everyone who has a cat at home must pay attention.
