"Sister, please sit down. My dear sister, please try this venison. It is the best for replenishing qi and blood and beautifying your skin. Sister..."
Li Shu took Miss Liu and sat her down on the couch, personally prepared a dish of secret sauce for her, and then enthusiastically used a serving chopstick to pick up the two most delicious pieces of venison in the hot pot for her...
In short, they were very affectionate, as if they were moved by what Miss Six had just said.
The sixth young lady of the Marquis's mansion sat on the soft couch with great hospitality. Before she could react, a mouthful of venison slices soaked in sauce was stuffed into her mouth. It was so delicious that she couldn't help but puff her cheeks and chew the delicious venison. It seems that the fifth sister has been perfectly mastered by me.
I was conquered by his acting skills.
Hehehehe.
Pregnancy makes people stupid for three years, that’s great.
Suddenly, the villain in Sixth Miss's heart put his hands on his hips in triumph, looked up to the sky and laughed, roar, roar, roar... just like a little fox who stole a chicken.
cough cough
No, I have to control myself and not laugh out loud, otherwise it would be bad if the village girl, Fifth Sister, found out.
Sixth Miss tried hard to control herself, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curve up.
Looking at the curve of Sixth Miss's mouth, Li Shu's mouth also curved into a beautiful curve.
"Good sister, eat more..." Li Shu squinted her eyes, picking up vegetables and adding meat from time to time, as loving as the wolf grandmother.
"Fifth sister, you are so good to me. Originally, I was going to help you share two shops, but now I have decided to grit my teeth and help you share one more shop. Don't worry, Fifth sister, I will definitely take care of it for you..." Sixth Miss said vaguely while chewing venison, as if to say, "My sister treats me well, so I will grit my teeth and help her share more of the burden."
"Thank you, sister." Li Shu said with emotion, holding the embroidered handkerchief in her slender hands and covering her cherry lips.
I have to cover my face, or I can't help laughing out loud.
"Sister, why are you being so polite to me? This is what a younger sister should do." The Sixth Miss said vaguely.
"However, you don't have to trouble me to take care of the shop. I don't take care of the shop on weekdays. I leave it to the shopkeeper. The accountant will just check the accounts every month, so I don't have to worry about it." Li Shu said softly while picking up some food for Miss Six.
"ah?!"
Miss Six was stunned for a moment, she stopped chewing, and the venison in her mouth no longer tasted fragrant.
You, hum!
Damn that country girl, Sister Five, must be playing a trick on me! She pretended to be a good sister just to reject me at this moment. Damn it, damn it, it's so damned!
Sixth Miss's face instantly fell. Just as she was about to stand up and fight back, she heard Li Shu speak again.
"Although I don't need you to look after the shop, I do have something I want to trouble you with. If you can help me, I will thank you very much."
Li Shu spoke slowly.
Hearing the words "thank you profusely", Miss Six raised her buttocks halfway and then dropped them down. She coughed and forced a smile on her face, "Ahem, what do you mean by thank you profusely? It's so polite of you to say that, sister... Oh, by the way, what are you talking about?"
Miss Six did not say whether she agreed or not, but asked what it was first. If it was profitable, she would agree. If it was not profitable, she would not agree and would make excuses to shirk.
"My dear sister, you also know that I came from the countryside and like quietness..." Li Shu said slowly.
When Miss Six heard Li Shu say that she was from the countryside, she couldn't help but raise her swan-like chin with pride, and snorted in her heart, "You still know that you are a country girl from the countryside..."
"I heard that your mansion has a 'Zizailou' that provides food and accommodation near Dajue Temple in the outer city. It's in a remote location and the business is not very good..." Li Shu continued.
Business is not only not very good, it is extremely bad. We lose money every day, every month, and every year...
During this period of time, since the second and third daughters have married, the sixth daughter has also followed the wife of Linhuai Hou to learn how to manage the household. She knows a lot about this money-losing restaurant.
I lose money every day I open, and I lose at least ten taels of silver a month. I am considering closing the shop...
"Oh, sister, you are talking about Zizai Restaurant. Although the business is not very good, it is still okay. Hey, sister, why did you mention this restaurant?" Miss Six did not tell the truth and asked Li Shu back.
"Sister likes quietness. I went to Dajue Temple to burn incense and pray for Brother Zhu a few days ago, and passed by this restaurant. I found that although this restaurant is in a bad location and does not make money, the surrounding area is sparsely populated and the natural scenery is good, with mountains and water, which is the quietest. Sister likes quietness, and this restaurant is close to Dajue Temple, so it is very convenient to burn incense and worship Buddha. Sister wants to buy this restaurant, and come to the restaurant to stay for a few days every year to enjoy a few days of quietness. She can also go to Dajue Temple to burn incense and pray for Brother Zhu and the baby. Isn’t it a good thing."
Li Shu blinked her big watery eyes and said softly, "I wonder if you can help me achieve my wish?"
"Ah? You want to buy Zizailou?" Miss Six's eyes lit up, but she quickly pretended to be embarrassed, picked up the teacup and said to Qiao, "Zizailou is the property of the mansion. Although the business is not very good, there is income every month. Moreover, our ancestors are also Buddhists. When they go to Dajue Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, they will also stop at Zizailou. Sister wants to buy Zizailou, I'm afraid..."
"Good sister, I am willing to pay one thousand two taels of silver to buy Zizai Building." Li Shu said anxiously.
puff…
The Sixth Miss had just taken a sip of tea when she heard Li Shu say that she was willing to pay one thousand and two taels of silver to buy Zizailou. She was so excited that she spat out a mouthful of tea. The Sixth Miss's personal maid, who was serving food to her, was sprayed all over her face and tea leaves were still hanging on the tip of her nose.
Miss Six is so excited!
According to the market price, Zizailou is worth at most 700-800 taels of silver. In order to live there for a few days every year, the village girl Fifth Sister is willing to pay 1,000 taels of silver, which is 200-300 taels more. This is not a small amount. She is really stupid and rich!
Pregnancy makes people stupid for three years! It's true!
If it were any other day, how could the Fifth Sister, who is as smart as a fairy, become such a fool
"Oh, by the way, in order to maintain the tranquility of Zizai Building, I am also willing to pay one hundred taels to buy the barren slope behind Zizai Building." Li Shu said again.
puff…
Miss Six spit out tea again.
Although the barren slope connected to the Zizai Building is large, covering an area of more than ten acres, it is just a barren hillside covered with weeds. Crops cannot be planted and there is no output at all! It is not even worth ten taels of silver!
The fifth sister, a village girl, actually paid a hundred taels to buy it for the sake of peace! Pregnancy makes people stupid for three years, so stupid.
"Hehe, dear sister, I want to help you too, but Zizailou is the property of the mansion, and the one who makes the decision is..." Miss Six suppressed her excitement and continued to talk.
"If you can say a few good words to my aunt on my behalf, I would like to give you fifty taels of silver as a thank you gift..." Li Shu said anxiously, holding the Sixth Miss's hand.
"It doesn't matter whether it's fifty taels or not. The main thing is that I want to fulfill my sister's desire for a quiet life."
When the Sixth Miss heard that Li Shu was willing to give her fifty taels of silver as a thank you gift, her eyes widened immediately. She could no longer sit still and stood up to report the good news to the wife of Linhuai Marquis.
Li Shu couldn't stop him.
"Sister, just prepare fifty taels of silver. No, no, sister, just wait for good news from my younger sister."
When Sixth Miss was happy, her true feelings came out, and she quickly changed her words to cover it up.
Fortunately, I reacted quickly, and the village girl Fifth Sister was stupid for three years after pregnancy, so she didn't notice it, so I successfully saved my face.
After leaving Jingxiang Garden, the Sixth Miss couldn't hide the smile on her face as she staggered towards the courtyard of the wife of Linhuai Marquis.
