Chapter 245: A Pair of Stupid People
Now that Zhu Xiaomei said so, what else can Shen Nanzhi do?
Someone was called to call Liao Baojia, who demonstrated how to make milk tea and promoted it at the same time so that more ladies would like it.
When Liao Baojia heard this, he understood what Shen Nanzhi meant. He changed into clean clothes and hurried over.
The side dishes were prepared in advance, and a charcoal fire was lit in the flower hall. There were many people, so it was relatively warm.
Liao Baojia started to make milk tea through a screen and introduced the methods of making condiments to everyone. The young man was talkative and humorous, and he looked good too, which made many ladies nod their heads secretly. This young man is quite good.
Mrs. Zhu was also somewhat satisfied. Children who work hard will always be looked up to by others. Her daughter has good taste.
The milk tea is ready and I shared it with everyone to try. Everyone praised it highly. Drinking a cup on a cold day makes you feel comfortable all over.
Although they have no worries about food and drink and can pursue quality of life, in order to maintain their figure, they have small stomachs and do not eat much.
I was really hungry and had a few snacks to fill my stomach. I wasn't in good health, otherwise there wouldn't be so many women suffering from difficult childbirth and their children would easily die. The richer the family, the higher the chance of difficult childbirth.
Poor health is caused by eating less and not exercising.
Now, when you take a few sips of milk tea, it is full of sugar and milk, as well as red beans, crushed peanuts, taro balls and other things, which are all very nutritious. Drinking more of them is good for your body.
As a result, milk tea quickly spread among the upper class in the county, with daily sales exceeding a hundred cups. This was a terrifying number, considering that a cup of milk tea cost thirty cents, which was not a low price. It showed that there were still many wealthy people in the county.
This is a story for later. Now, as Liao Baojia listened to everyone's praises, his smile became even brighter, as if he saw countless silver coins flying towards him.
"You should step back first and see the reward."
The maid gave him a purse of silver as a reward. Liao Baojia thought it was copper coins, so he put it into his sleeve, thanked her, and prepared to leave.
Just as I was leaving the house, Zhu Xiaomei came over and said, "Liao Baojia, I'll see you off."
"Oh, Miss Zhu, I don't deserve it. I'll just ask the maid to take me there. How dare I trouble you?"
Liao Baojia was flattered. Of course he knew Zhu Xiaomei. She was the young lady of the Zhu family and was very favored, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to taste all that meat.
Zhu Xiaomei said proudly, "Is this not okay with me? If I tell you to go, just follow me. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Miss Zhu."
Zhu Xiaomei led him a little off the track, and Liao Baojia felt something was wrong, "Miss Zhu, isn't this the way out of the house?"
"This is going out the side door. Am I not familiar with my house?"
Zhu Xiaomei turned around and saw that there was no one around. She had also sent the maid away and stared at Liao Baojia. Even though she spoke very powerfully in front of Shen Nanzhi, she would get scared when it came to asking people something.
"Miss Zhu, let's go quickly. It's so cold and your face is red from the cold. Don't get frostbite. It's hard to cure."
She blushed, that's because she's shy, but what's that look in this guy's eyes?
Zhu Xiaomei took a deep breath and said, "Liao Baojia, what do you think of me?"
"Very good. Miss Zhu is lively and cheerful, kind and generous. Naturally, she is excellent."
"Then can I marry you?"
"Okay, no, no, Miss Zhu, you can't joke around!"
Liao Baojia was shocked and subconsciously wanted to escape. He felt like he had fallen into a trap. She actually fell in love with him?
This was not acceptable. Liao Baojia thought she was up to something and turned to run. Zhu Xiaomei chased after her: "Why are you running? Stop and explain everything to me before you leave."
It looked quite strange to see two people chasing each other. Zhu Xiaomei was a girl after all, and the weather was cold and the road was slippery, so she fell down the stairs without paying attention.
"Ouch!"
When Liao Baojia turned around, he saw her face down, bleeding from her nose, and her face swollen from the fall. Oh no, he had to save her.
Liao Baojia wanted to pick her up, but failed. This girl was so heavy. She must have eaten so much good food to have such a plump body.
Finally, he had no choice but to walk away from her: "Miss Zhu, can you still leave?"
"Ah, you can't leave. You haven't said whether you will marry me or not."
"I..., go see a doctor first, don't hurt your face."
"My face, ah..., wuwu..."
Well, girls are troublesome. Liao Baojia was speechless. Let’s go see a doctor as soon as possible. What’s the point of crying?
Isn't this face still intact?
"Okay, stop crying. If you are disfigured, I will marry you, okay?"
"really?"
"Really, I swear, I will marry you if you are disfigured."
"alright."
Zhu Xiaomei stopped crying and walked to a crowded place. The servants quickly reported to Mrs. Zhu and called a doctor, which frightened everyone.
Shen Nanzhi and Jin Xuan'er accompanied her. They fell and had bruises all over their faces. The girl had fair skin, and her face turned blue due to the cold weather, which looked scary.
Even though she fell so hard, she was still so happy. Jin Xuan'er was scared: "Is she stupid from the fall?"
"Probably."
"You are the stupid one. He said that he is willing to marry me even if I am disfigured, hehehe..."
Shen Nanzhi: "Don't laugh, it's creepy. If someone hears it, they'll regret it."
Zhu Xiaomei stopped smiling immediately, but she couldn’t help smiling at the corners of her mouth, just like a silly girl, it was unbearable to look at.
When Shen Nanzhi came out, Liao Baojia was still worried, "Sister Nanzhi, is she okay?"
"It's okay. You are the one who has something to do. Do you really like Miss Zhu?"
"Do I have the right to like someone?"
"So you said you would marry her?"
"I have to take responsibility, right? She fell on her face because of me, I can't just ignore it, right?"
Shen Nanzhi was speechless. "You should go back first. If that's the case, prepare to propose marriage and take responsibility to the end, preferably for a lifetime. None of Shen Nanzhi's friends will abandon you after having an affair. If you dare to let Xiaomei down, I will be the first one to not forgive you."
Liao Baojia was a little bit unbelieving: "Can I really propose marriage?"
"can."
Liao Baojia was dizzy. He was an orphan who just wanted to survive, but now he could marry a rich girl. It was like a dream.
Shen Nanzhi didn't look at his silly look. The two of them were a silly couple, and they were a good match.
She thought about Aunt Xia's words and went to see Mr. Yuan on her way back.
For her academy, Mr. Yuan is the most important signboard. Without this signboard, it is useless to talk about it in a grandiose way.
It can be said that if Mr. Yuan didn't help her, this academy would be doomed.
Shen Nanzhi should get along well with the ladies, and then he will not have to worry about no one buying products in his store.
Now it is the fire in the backyard that forces her to take it seriously.
When they got home, Shen Huai'en brought some ginger and sugar water, "Drink some to warm yourself up. The weather is getting colder and colder. I'm afraid it's going to snow."
"It is indeed cold. Prepare some gifts. I will go see you and buy two carts of charcoal as a gift to you."
"It's time to visit Mr. Boss. You've been busy lately and haven't visited him. Mr. Boss even asked you about it."
"Asked me what?"
Shen Huai'en thought for a moment and said, "I asked you what you were busy with recently? Did anyone come to see you? How is your health? He was very concerned about you. I told him to come, but he said forget it. It's quite strange."
