Chapter 39： Popular

the current errand.

Shen He looked at the dawdling look of the person in front of him, and couldn't help but urged: "Hurry up!"

The man's originally ugly face instantly became embarrassed, facing Chen Xing's direction, he said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have rushed like that!"

Chen Xing looked at his embarrassed face, didn't know what to say to ease the atmosphere, and heard Shen He next to him who didn't seem very satisfied and continued: "Then do you dare to do it next time? Are you bullying people outside?"

The man's heart tightened, knowing that this young master was dissatisfied with the answer just now, he quickly responded: "I don't dare, I don't dare, I won't dare to do this kind of bullying next time. Yes. Little boss, I'm sorry just now, I was in a hurry, so I didn't choose to say anything."

Chen Xing looked at him bending over and apologizing, and waved his hand quickly, and said in an embarrassed tone: "Forget it, forget it, I won't keep it in my heart."

Shen He, who had been standing beside him, looked at Chen Xing's appearance, and after confirming that he really didn't care, he said lightly to the frightened man: "If it's okay, get out!"

"Yes, yes."

When the man left in a hurry, Chen Xing turned his eyes to the young man who seemed to have a bad temper but a good heart. He smiled at this Shen He, showing a bit of gratitude on his face, "Thank you so much for your son just now."

Meeting Chen Xing's smiling face, looking at the pair of eyes that seemed to be full of starlight, the man who had just lost his temper just now subsided his fiery temper, even his face There was also a bit of embarrassment on it.

Chen Xing noticed Shen He's quick transformation, and couldn't help but think that he was a little interesting, the smile on his face became a little bigger, looked at him and continued: "Master, do you want to buy something? ?"

Shen He stared at Chen Xing's bright smile, his brain became hot, and he said without thinking: "I want to buy jelly."

The smile on Chen Xing's face paused for a while, looking at him with a bit of a difficult look, and looking at Shen He's eyes a bit strange, "Ah, sorry, son, we have no more here. Jelly."

Chen Xing clearly remembered that when he told that person that there was no jelly, this young man was standing beside him? If it weren't for the fact that he had helped him just now, he would have thought he was here to find fault again.

Looking at Chen Xing's questioning eyes, Shen He was a little confused at first, but then he quickly recovered, thinking of what just happened, and a bit of annoyance appeared on his face , explained to Chen Xing repeatedly: "I, I was distracted just now, I am not going to buy jelly, I want other things."

Chen Xing looked at Shen He who was suddenly flustered, and only thought that he was really strange, but the visitor was a guest, and he did not continue to comment. Reaching out a finger, he pointed to the food on the table, and said in a gentle tone: "Young master, look what you want, here are cold skins, cold noodles, mung bean soup, and iced dumplings."

After saying this, Chen Xing thought of what Gu Lang said yesterday, afraid that he thought it was expensive, and then smiled: "The first three items are five cents a bowl, and finally It's the same as seven pennies."

Shen He looked in the direction of Chen Xing's fingers, but his eyes couldn't help but be attracted by his beautiful hand, with well-defined joints and a healthy thin red on the fingernails. His thoughts couldn't help flying a few minutes away, thinking absent-mindedly, the beauty is so beautiful even with her hands.

"Young Master?" Chen Xing looked at him just staring at the things on the table in a daze, and didn't speak for a long time, thinking that he still disliked these things for being expensive. He couldn't help but hesitated whether to invite him to a bowl on the excuse that he had helped him just now.

Being so called by Chen Xing, Shen He quickly pulled away from the imagination just now, his face even showed a bit of blush, looked at him and said embarrassedly: "Sorry, I just lost my mind. Come on. Just bring me a bowl of iced glutinous rice **** and a cold skin. I often hear Fu An talking about these two things, which must be extremely delicious. "

Seeing that he finally ordered food, Chen Xing gradually breathed a sigh of relief, followed his words and asked, "Are you and Mr. Fu good friends?"

Perhaps he was talking about a topic he was good at, Shen He's face became much more natural, and his tone of voice was relaxed, "He is my friend."

Qiu Jiu, who was next to him, has been watching Shen He silently since he appeared. At this time, he was doing what he wanted while watching him staring at Chen Xing intently. Raised a bit of calculation.

"By the way, little boss, I have one more thing to tell you."

After Shen He gradually relaxed, he was not as nervous as before, and gradually returned to his original eloquent nature, which made Chen Xing's guard gradually relax, and even It was a pleasure talking to him.

So, when she heard Shen He say that she had something to tell herself, Chen Xing subconsciously took it and asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Call me by my name, don't call me any more son."

Chen Xing heard the words and nodded obediently, feeling that it was not a big deal, it was just a name.

Seeing Chen Xing agreeing to his request so easily, Shen He's eyes lit up for a moment, watching Chen Xing want to continue to say something, but suddenly something blocked in front of him Between him and Chen Xing, he looked over subconsciously and saw that it was the helper beside the little boss who was holding a tray in front of him with the two things he just ordered on it.

Qiu Jiu looked at the man in front of him who was trying to hook up with Chen Xing, showed an unfriendly smile, and said politely: "Sir, this is what you want." After speaking, Just handed the tray over.

Shen He, who was still thinking about how to make Chen Xing's impression of him better, faced this sudden thing, subconsciously reached out to pick it up, but almost started to fall because he didn't grasp it firmly.

When Shen He finally stabilized the things on the tray, he got angry and wanted to scold twice, but found that the reckless striker had left, and only Chen Xingzheng looked at him with a bewildered face, Now the harsh words were stuck in his throat again.

Chen Xing looked at the changing faces of the people in front of him, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with the son?"

Shen He looked at his face, squeezed out a smile, looked at Qiu Jiu who was busy beside him, and said with gritted teeth, "Nothing."

Chen Xing always felt a little confused when he looked at the person whose expression changed too fast. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that there were still vacancies not far away, so he greeted directly, "Young master, go find a place to sit down first, this dumpling won't taste good after it melts."

Shen He wanted to talk a little more, but because he still had something in his hand and someone urging him from behind, he couldn't help but nodded, and helplessly found a place to sit down. He originally thought that he would go to Chen Xing to chat for a while after he finished eating, but who knew that Chen Xing would not be free until he left.

Watching Shen He leave, Qiu Jiucai approached Chen Xing who was about to clean up the dishes and muttered softly, "Chen Xing, you have to stay away from that Shen He in the future."

Chen Xing, who was thinking about what to buy at the vegetable market later, heard Qiu Jiu suddenly say these words, and asked a little puzzled: "Why?"

Qiu Jiu looked at the confusion in Chen Xing's eyes, rolled his eyes, and immediately said: "I see that the young master has a hot temper, maybe he will be offended with a single word that day, and then he will not be It will be troublesome. After all, we are only a small business, and staying away from him can also avoid some troubles.”

Chen Xing looked at Qiu Jiu with a serious face and felt that his words were a bit strange, but he couldn't remember the strangeness there for a while, so he could only nodded, no Say something else.

Qiu Jiu looked at Chen Xing's perfunctory appearance, and felt that he had not fully listened to his words. After thinking about it in his heart, he felt that he had to go back and tell his son about this matter, or else the time would come. Chen Xingzhen was abducted by that man, and his son must not cut him to vent his anger.

Recently, a new dessert, jelly, has suddenly become popular in the city, and it is especially popular among the ladies and wives of major families. Even because of its high price, the daily portion is limited and the supply is in short supply, it has become a way to entertain close friends who come to visit and show off their financial resources.

In between, is enough to make people feel embarrassed.

So, I don't know when it started, the jelly that originally came to the stall every day and took some time to sell out. Basically, when he arrived at the booth, he was divided up by the servants sent by each family.

Because some people bought too much, so Chen Xing had to put up a sign, telling everyone that one person can only buy six at most, and not to sell more, so it stopped The scene of a wealthy and wealthy family suddenly wrapping up everything on his booth.

"Come on, this is your share." Chen Xing smiled and handed the packaged box to the little servant who came to buy, thinking how much was left.

The boy took the box with beautiful patterns handed over by Chen Xing, and looked at the little boss who smiled gently in front of him, he couldn't help but ask, "Little boss, what are you doing? It’s so popular, why don’t you do a little more, you can make money too!”

, then the gain outweighs the loss, so we can only do this for now." Furthermore, he also understands the truth that the more things are cheaper, so it's better to do this now.

The little boy stared at Chen Xing's smiling face, in fact, he didn't understand what he was saying at all, he just thought that what the little boss said was reasonable, nodded randomly, and then picked up something left.

After he left, a little maid came running from behind, and hurriedly said, "Is there any peach flavor today?"

Chen Xing looked at the sweat on her forehead, handed her a bowl of herbal tea, and said warmly, "Yes, there are three more."

The maid took the herbal tea handed over by Chen Xing, and there was a bit of struggle on her face. In the end, she couldn't stand the cold temptation. Bowl, a bit of embarrassment appeared on his face, and a bit of embarrassment appeared on Chen Xing's face. How could she drink in such a hurry, as if she hadn't had a drink in her life!

Chen Xing didn't seem to see the embarrassment on her face, and continued to ask: "How much do you want, and what flavor do you want?"

The maid didn't care about the embarrassment when she heard the words. She didn't buy this dessert last time, and she was punished by the lady when she went back. The reason was that when her lady was having a party with another lady, the other lady When she bought it, her lady didn't have it. If she can't buy it this time, her lady will punish her severely!

Thinking of this, the little girl immediately said in a hurry: "I want six servings, three servings of peaches, and one serving for the rest."

"Good." After listening to the little girl's words, Chen Xing quickly helped her pack it up, and finally handed the two boxes to her: "This thing is a bit heavy, girl Please also be careful."

The maid looked at Chen Xing's gentle face, blushed, and hurriedly left with the two boxes.

Qiu Jiu next to him glanced at the maid who had just left, and then looked at Chen Xing, who was starting to figure out when he could go back, and sighed silently in his heart, at the same time he was a little grateful for his son Not here, otherwise he thinks that there is a chance that Chen Xing will not be able to come out to do business.

Envy and jealous eyes appeared constantly, as if she was not carrying some desserts, but two boxes of golden treasures.

Bathing in such eyes, the maid who was a little flustered, gradually calmed down, and even her steps were much calmer. She straightened her waist like that, and in the envious tone of everyone's discussion, she slowly walked towards the mansion.

When the maid took the box out of their sight, the person sitting there eating tea said with some admiration: "I don't know who bought this again, what does it taste like, I really want to try it."

The man next to him looked at him and sneered, with a bit of cynicism in his tone: "That thing is basically eaten by those rich and rich people, I heard that it is expensive! Can someone like you afford to eat?"

The man who just started talking heard his sarcasm and retorted: "I don't eat it every day, I only eat it once, I don't believe I can't afford it."

Hearing the man's words, his companion raised his eyebrows and continued to mock: "Really? I heard that that thing is fifty cents a piece, and you have to pack it for take-out If so, you will need to add ten cents more."

The man immediately widened his eyes, looked at his companion and said in horror: "So expensive?"

The companion sneered and continued: "And I heard that, even an ordinary woman, after a few bites, it will be gone. Rough men like us, it will be gone in two or three bites. So , do you still buy it?"

The meat is really back, I don’t buy it anymore, I don’t buy it anymore.”

The companion looked at him as he looked down on himself, and did not continue to laugh at him, but looked at him and raised his eyebrows, "It doesn't matter if you don't buy it, it's not something we can afford. of."

When the two of them said this, they did not notice that not far behind them, a charming woman was standing there listening to them. After they finished speaking, they turned their eyes to the pedestrians hurriedly passing by on the street. Looking at the servants who walked past with their heads held high and carrying one or two boxes painted with the star pattern, a pretty face appeared. A bit of a jealous look.

This woman is the boss Qiao who was warned by Chen Xing last time. She was so frightened by Chen Xing last time. thought. But who knows, that brother not only made his original business prosperous, but also made an expensive dessert, which seems to be making a lot of money. Thinking of this, Boss Qiao's nails gradually embedded in the flesh, and his face became more and more hideous.

Just when she was about to stop her madness, the second in the store suddenly came over and whispered, "Boss?"

Boss Joe looked over subconsciously, "What's the matter?!"

The ferocious look on her face that could not be put away in the future shocked Xiao Er, Xiao WWII looked at her tremblingly, and whispered: "That, the debt collector is here."

Boss Qiao's ugly face became more and more ugly, but the ruddy face turned pale for a moment. But soon, under Xiao Er's worried eyes, she adjusted her state and returned to her usual arrogant appearance.

Boss Qiao looked at the trembling little Er next to him, and asked lightly, "Are they there?"

Xiao Er carefully observed the look on her face, pointed to the outside direction, and said softly: "Outside."

Boss Qiao took a deep breath and walked slowly in the direction he pointed to. When he got to the door, he didn't see the creditor in the mouth of Xiao Er, but saw that he came to trouble her some time ago the woman. Looking at the woman's smug look, Boss Qiao had a bad premonition in his heart.

As expected, in the vigilant eyes of Boss Qiao, the woman took out a stack of paper from her arms, and then looked at Boss Qiao and said maliciously: "Why, I'm looking for you That creditor? Unfortunately, he won't be here today."

Boss Qiao pursed her lips and didn't speak. She just looked at the thing in her hand and felt that she was going to be planted here today.

The woman slowly walked over with the stack of papers, and moved closer to her so that she could see clearly what it was.

Boss Qiao also did as she wished, and saw clearly what the stack of papers was. They were all IOUs she signed before, all to repay her gambling debts.

After she saw this clearly, the woman immediately showed a proud look on her face, looked at her and said, "What, did you see clearly?"

Boss Joe looked at her without speaking.

The woman immediately became angry, raised her hand and slapped her.

To the person who slapped her just now.

The woman looked at her like this, but her mood seemed to have improved a little, and continued: "Why, you little prostitute still want to beat me? I tell you, this thing is in my hands In your hands, you have exceeded the time to repay the money. Do you think that if my **** husband doesn't pursue it, you will be fine? It's just that I take this thing to the government and sue you, and you will still be locked up!"

Boss Joe's expression softened immediately when he heard her threatening words, looking at the woman and said, "What do you want?"

The woman looked at her pitiful appearance and sighed to herself, no wonder his dead husband was fascinated by this little slut, but he had a bit of beauty. But soon, thinking of the purpose of his coming here, he immediately came back to his senses.

The woman glanced at Boss Qiao's shop not far away, with a greedy expression on her face, "I know, this shop is yours, as long as you give me this shop, I'll return your IOU to you, what do you think?"

When Boss Qiao heard this, he had a somewhat arrogant expression on his face, and immediately became scared. This store is her last foundation of life. If it is given to this woman, how will she live in the future?

Seeing the expression of rejection on Boss Qiao's face, the lady hooked her lips and smiled, sarcastically: "Why, I can't bear it? Then I will give this IOU to the county master and see what he has to say. At that time, this store is still mine." After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

Boss Qiao panicked immediately. She is not covered by Lai Jiu now. She looked at the woman who was about to turn around, knelt down with a plop, and said in a panic:

"Sister, eldest sister, listen to me. Give me a little more time, and I promise to return the money to you. Let me tell you the truth, although this store is mine, the land deed is not mine. Here, even if you catch me in jail, I can't sell it and pay you back. At that time, you won't have any money, and you won't even be able to get a shop, so why bother?"

The woman turned her head when she heard the words and looked at the woman kneeling on the ground in a daze, with a suspicious look on her face, "Is what you said true?"

Seeing her stop, Boss Qiao immediately said: "What I said is true, absolutely true, if you arrest me, this shop will immediately belong to his original owner Now. I only have the right to use this shop, and I don't have any right to sell it."

The woman only thought it was absurd and felt that Boss Qiao was lying to her, but looking at Boss Qiao's eager appearance, she asked curiously, "Then tell me, what exactly is this shop? who?"
