Chen Guihua looked back at the lobby, probably because it was lunch time and the few guests who were there just now had already left.

She casually sat down on a chair and said, "Let's talk here!"

"it is good."

Now that he and Gu Xihe had reached an agreement, Zhang Chi didn't have any worries, and sat down in front of her.

"Uncle Cui, what do you think Chen Guihua is here again? Will she be the same as last time?"

After seeing Chen Guihua's aggressiveness and domineering, Sun Zheng already had a shadow in his heart.

Cui Jingshun stroked his beard and said in a low voice, "Probably not. She waited until the guests had left before talking to Zhang Chi. She probably didn't want to make trouble."

"Uncle Cui, don't go home for dinner, just wait here for a while, okay?"

Cui Jingshun nodded, "Okay, I'll watch here."

After Chen Guihua sat down, her eyes were red before she could speak.

"Chi'er, it was my mother who was wrong last time, but there is nothing my mother can do!"

Zhang Chi's face was pale, and he lowered his eyes, not wanting to watch her performance.

Chen Guihua didn't seem to care about Zhang Chi's reaction at all, and said to herself.

"Chi'er, your father left early. I am a woman, and I have worked so hard to bring you and your brother up. How difficult it was for me! Back then, your mother and I were young, and I was also a beautiful flower in this town. How many people advised me to remarry. But I was afraid that you and Qing'er would be angry with your stepfather because they were young, so I didn't agree. Chi'er, even if I was wrong, I am your mother after all!"

Saying that, Chen Guihua took out a handkerchief, covered her face and started crying.

"I have no choice but to come to you. Qing'er is the youngest, so he is inevitably spoiled and a bit squeamish. He also found work, but either he was bullied because he was young, or the work was too heavy for him to do. So, it's not that he doesn't want to do things, it's just that there is no suitable one. I'm getting old, and I always feel uncomfortable in my body. Fortunately, he has hired a doctor and prepared medicine for me, and he has put a lot of effort into it."

After Chen Guihua finished speaking, she raised her eyes to look at Zhang Chi, only to see that he was looking straight at her, with a calm expression and no change on his face.

Zhang Chi like this made her flustered, she didn't know what this son was thinking anymore, and she didn't know what to say to impress him.

"Chi'er, I was wrong last time. I shouldn't make such a fuss. It made you lose face."

Chen Guihua looked at Zhang Chi, but still didn't respond, a fire surged in her heart, she wanted to explode, but held back.

"I'm here today to ask you to forgive me. Chi'er, I can't make it up to you, please forgive mother! Do you still want me to kneel down for you?"

As she spoke, her body slid down, as if she was about to kneel down.

Zhang Chi doesn't care if she kneels or not, but just doesn't want to listen to her nonsense anymore.Whether it was the previous life or this life, he didn't have much memory of his relatives.Even though he once longed for family affection, Chen Guihua has done so many annoying things that he can no longer regard her as his relative.

He said coldly, "What exactly do you want to say, just say it!"

"Me." Chen Guihua sighed, took out a handkerchief and wiped away tears that didn't exist, "Chi'er, I'm a mother, and I don't have any extravagant wishes, I just hope that my children will live well. At the beginning, I tried my best The reason for your marriage with Second Young Master Gu is entirely for you. The Gu family has a great career, and you will live a comfortable life when you get married. I don’t have much work to do, and my life is tight. I think your teahouse has a good business, but there is only one guy who is too busy. I want him to come to your teahouse to help, and you don’t need to pay him much. It’s enough to give one, two, and two halves a month. He’s not young anymore, and it’s time for him to learn something seriously. You are his elder brother, so let him learn to do business with you, and he won’t be bullied .”

It turned out that the idea was brought to the teahouse.Give him a salary of one tael and half tael, and let him share half of how much money my teahouse can make in a month.Besides, Zhang Qing is used to idleness, so what can he do?Don't just find yourself a young master.

Zhang Chi said lightly: "You really think highly of me! This teahouse is not mine, it's the Gu family's. I'm just here to help take care of it. I'm a twin. I got married and showed up in public. I was originally criticized. Now you still ask Zhang Qing to come over, I'm afraid others will gossip."

Chen Guihua curled her lips, "Cut! Qing'er is your younger brother, what can they gossip about?"

Zhang Chi raised his eyebrows, "The last time you had a quarrel, some people said that the Zhang family wanted a teahouse after marrying a twin, it's really greedy!"

Chen Guihua opened her mouth, and said after a long time: "I was wrong last time, but you are the daughter-in-law that Gu Erming's matchmaker is marrying. Even if he takes a concubine in the future, you are still the main wife, and you deserve to be in this family."

Zhang Chi didn't want to get entangled with her, so he said directly: "You don't need to say any more, this is not okay!"

"Why not?" Chen Guihua immediately raised her voice, "Gu Er is not at home, you have the final say! Besides, Qing'er is your own younger brother, so it's only natural to come to help you. Whoever dares to gossip, I scold him Don't dare to speak!"

"If I say no, it won't work."

"You!" Chen Guihua stared at Zhang Chi with wide eyes, her chest heaving violently, as if she was about to explode.

Zhang Chi smiled coldly, "Do you still want to be rude? Whatever you want. But this time I won't spoil you. As long as you make a fuss, I will immediately report to the officials and let the county magistrate make the decision for me. You are so rude Mother, I'm not afraid of carrying an unfilial name!"

Chen Guihua obviously understood the daimyo's law, and her momentum was a little low, but she was still not reconciled, "You rejected Miss Jiang's marriage proposal, do you think Master Jiang will let you go?"

"You don't know, do you? Miss Jiang has a good son-in-law now, so she wishes she had nothing to do with me! Why would Mr. Jiang make things difficult for me?"

Chen Guihua saw that Zhang Chi refused to eat, she had no choice, and said angrily: "Forget it, since you won't help, I will find him when Gu Xihe comes back! He is a scholar, and he wants to save face the most. I can't believe he would..."

"How dare you!" Zhang Chi slapped the table suddenly, only to hear two "bang" and "clang" sounds, a corner of the table was actually knocked off by him, and fell to the ground.The teapot and cup on the table even jumped up and made a "crack" sound!

Cui Jingshun and Sun Zheng were also taken aback by this. They looked at each other and saw the same shock in each other's eyes. Zhang Chi is so scary!

Zhang Chi stood up and looked at Chen Guihua sullenly, "If you dare to come to Xihe, I won't be polite to you!"

Sitting in front of Zhang Chi, Chen Guihua watched helplessly as he slapped a corner of the table away, so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe.After a long time, he whispered: "You, if you don't agree, it's fine, I, I'll go first."

After finishing speaking, she hurriedly got up and left the teahouse.Because he left in a hurry, he even brought a chair over.

Seeing Chen Guihua leave the door of the teahouse, Zhang Chi let out an "Ouch" and turned around with his arms folded.

"Damn it! It hurts! Uncle Cui, get the medicine box quickly! Sun Zheng, help me see if the skin on your palm is broken? It really hurts!"

Cui Jingshun and Sun Zheng were taken aback again, and walked up to him in a few steps.

Sun Zheng took Zhang Chi's hand in his hands, the palm was red, the flesh of the little fish was scratched, and there was some blood oozing, presumably it was scratched by the stubble on the section of the table.

"Zhang Chi, sit down quickly, Uncle Cui is going to get the medicine box!"

"Oh."

Seeing that Zhang Chi's hand was not serious, Cui Jingshun was relieved and hurried to fetch the medicine box.

Sun Zheng was afraid that there would be wood debris in the wound, so he wiped it carefully with a cotton ball dipped in clean water, and then sprinkled the sea octopus powder.

"Zhang Chi, the wound is very shallow, so there is no need to bandage it. But you have to be careful not to get it wet. If the sea octopus is gone, sprinkle another layer on it."

"Oh."

"Also, if you suddenly use such a lot of force, your arms and hands will hurt for two days."

"Oh."

Zhang Chi was listless, completely losing the momentum he had just now.Every time he dealt with Chen Guihua, he was exhausted.

Sun Zheng asked casually: "Zhang Chi, do you know kung fu? You actually broke the corner of the table with one palm."

"I don't know kung fu."

"then you..."

"I was a soldier, maybe I practiced there? But I have forgotten."

"Forget? How could you forget?"

"When I woke up from a coma, I forgot everything before."

Having been with Sun Zheng and Cui Jingshun for so long, Zhang Chi has already believed in them.Apart from not being able to say that he came from time travel, everything else is no secret.

"It is so!"

Sun Zheng's voice was so low that Zhang Chi couldn't hear it clearly, and didn't have the heart to pay attention.

He sat down on the chair slumped, "Sun Zheng, I'm hungry, go outside and buy something to eat! I'll take the money from Uncle Cui, and it's my treat. Uncle Cui, you can eat together too!"

Cui Jingshun thought about it and agreed.

Sun Zheng honestly took the money to buy food, Cui Jingshun sat down in front of Zhang Chi, and asked in a low voice, "What is your mother looking for you for?"

Zhang Chi slumped on the chair, squeezed the center of his eyebrows, and said why Chen Guihua came.

"Let Zhang Qing come to help?" Cui Jingshun stroked his beard, "Just let him come, we just need a man who can boil water."

"Let him boil water? Didn't you understand? He is here to learn how to do business, not to work for you."

Zhang Chi raised his head and closed his eyes, "Uncle Cui, how many children do you have?"

Cui Jingshun didn't understand what he meant, but still answered him, "There is only one daughter."

"How are you treating your daughter?"

"Of course, that's the apple of my eye. Although my family is not rich, I haven't let her suffer a little bit of grievance since she was a child. Including the in-law's family that I found for her. Although it is not a rich family, the in-laws are reasonable, and the son-in-law is knowledgeable and interesting. My daughter respects him as a guest and has never blushed, so I am very relieved."

Zhang Chi sighed for a long time, "Could it be that all parents are partial? Why do they treat them differently when they are also their own children? You only have one daughter, so you don't understand this feeling."

Cui Jingshun was silent, he really didn't understand.

"Zhang Chi, don't think so much. I think you did the right thing. You can't be used to people like your mother. Your mother must have been terrified when you showed such a trick just now. I don't think she will come again. "

"I hope so!"

Perhaps Chen Guihua was really frightened, and she never came to the teahouse again in the following days.

Zhang Chi didn't have the heart to think about whether she would come or not.Because he was too busy, he had to find someone to plan and build the backyard, he had to write a book with He Jiahao, and he was also in charge of the daily affairs of the teahouse.

Zhang Chi felt that only being busy would enrich him and make him miss Gu Xihe so much.

It was too cold for construction, and the back yard couldn't be done.Zhang Chi can only add two more instant pots to boil water first, and temporarily relieve the water consumption when there is a lot of water.

The manuscript He Jiahao requested has been completed, and the first batch of books is being printed.

After all this busy work, Gu Xihe came back.

Gu Xihe fulfilled his promise, went home to review his homework, and went to the exam in the spring of next year.

Zhang Chi stuck with Gu Xihe at home for several days, not only made Gu Xihe unable to afford the Kang, but also didn't want to go to the teahouse.

He hugged Gu Xihe's waist from behind, rested his chin on his shoulder, and rubbed it lightly.

Gu Xihe shook his hand holding the pen, and a drop of ink landed on the white paper.

But Zhang Chi turned a blind eye and kissed him lightly on the cheek, his voice seemed to be mixed with honey, "Xihe, your handwriting is so beautiful!"

Gu Xihe lifted his shoulder helplessly, but Zhang Chi hugged him completely still.

He said helplessly: "This word is so useless, what a pity!"

"What's the pity? My family's husband's handwriting can't be wasted. I'll take it to Lao Mao tomorrow for a frame, and hang it in our house."

Gu Xihe put down his pen and turned around, "You! How many pages have you ruined my writing? If every page is framed and hung up, we won't be able to hang up three rooms in our house."

"Hey." Zhang Chi hugged him and didn't let go, "One floor can't hang two floors, we don't need to paste the wall for Chinese New Year."

Gu Xihe really had nothing to do with him.

"Is it time for you to tell a story? It will be too late if you don't go."

"Xihe, come with me! You are the boss, so it's time to inspect my work."

Gu Xihe stared, "I don't want to go, I'm..."

He blushed and couldn't continue.

Zhang Chi rubbed his nose and snickered, making his husband unable to get out of bed every day, what a man's pride!

The weather is getting colder and colder. It only snowed heavily yesterday. Today, although the sun is clear and the sky is clear, the temperature is very low. When the wind blows, it is more like blowing into the bones.

Zhang Chi put Gu Xihe on a cotton coat, a hat and a scarf on him, and put a hand stove on him, wrapping him up tightly, and then took him by the hand to go out.

"Follow me, be careful not to fall."

Gu Xihe felt that when he came back this time, Zhang Chi was even more clingy to him, but this feeling was so good, like being held in the palm of someone's hand.He never thought that he would be so lucky to meet such Zhang Chi.

As soon as he entered the door of the teahouse, he was greeted with warmth and a faint sweet fragrance, which made Gu Xihe's nose itchy and he sneezed violently.

Zhang Chi immediately asked nervously: "What's wrong? Did you catch a cold?"

Gu Xihe said with a smile: "No, it's because it smells so sweet and it makes me hungry."

Zhang Chi said with a smile: "It's hard to say, my own teahouse, what do you want to eat, what do you want to drink, just order!"
