peasant young lady

Chapter 60 What is the Identity of the Boss Wife?

Dahua was surprised all the way, and now seeing how respectful the clerk of Shangji Pharmacy was to Cheng Xia, she was even more shocked from ear to ear.

There is also the candied winter melon that Cheng Xia brought, and the big flower has never been seen before. She always felt that the little girl was different from before, but she didn't expect that it had changed so much.

Cheng Xia looked at Dahua's surprised gaze and smiled, didn't explain much, just looked at Xiao Wu, "What's wrong, Brother Xiao Wu, is the shopkeeper looking for something urgent?"

"What's more, the shopkeeper has been waiting for you for a long time, come in with me," Xiao Wu went all the way into the door, but he didn't see the shopkeeper. Suddenly, Monk Zhang Er was puzzled, scratched his head blankly and asked The guy at the side asked, "Where's the shopkeeper?"

Mingming had been sitting in front of the counter to settle the accounts just now, why did he disappear in the blink of an eye.

"Oh," the man smiled ambiguously, "Why did you forget, the proprietress said that she arrived in Chong'an County early in the morning, and the shopkeeper just went out to pick it up from the back door."

"That's right," Xiao Wu slapped himself on the forehead suddenly, "Why did you forget this?" Xiao Wu said, turning his head to look at Cheng Xia, "Our boss lady went back to her mother's house a few days ago, no, today As soon as I came back, the shopkeeper couldn’t wait to pick it up, let’s wait a little longer,” said Cheng Xia and Dahua to sit aside, it was too early, there were no people around, and the guys yawned The fight was staggering, and it looked very funny.

The guy who answered Xiao Wu's words brought several cups of Zhuyeqing to Cheng Xia and Dahua, "The shopkeeper told me, when the girl comes, please take good care of her. If you don't serve other tea, let me serve this Zhuyeqing. "

Shopkeeper Shang really knows how to be a man, Cheng Xia nodded gratefully in his heart, "Then I thank Shopkeeper Shang here."

Xiao Wu giggled and took the seat next to Cheng Xia, and before Cheng Xia could ask, he kept talking like pouring beans, "Girl, you don't know, our shopkeeper called Ma'am a good one." Ah, not to mention the entire Chong'an County, even if you look at Jianning Mansion, you may not be able to find the same."

"Oh," Cheng Xia was curious, "Tell me, Brother Wu."

"Okay," Xiao Wu agreed straight away, worrying that no one would speak, "Our shopkeeper traveled all over the world more than [-] years ago, but he couldn't walk when he came to Chong'an County, why, because he met the proprietress If you want to talk about the proprietress, she has a lot of background, the proprietress' father, who was once a celebrity in front of His Majesty, from an official to the Minister of the Ministry of War, what is called 'Wang Weining', is amazing."

Cheng Xia stopped serving tea, then suddenly looked at Xiao Wu, her voice was full of surprise, "The name of the proprietress's father is Wang Yue?"

Xiao Wu originally wanted to show off how powerful his lady boss is, but instead Cheng Xia was startled, "You, how do you know?"

How did Cheng Xia know?It's all because Wang Yue, as Xiao Wu said, is really not an ordinary person.

Wang Yue Jinshi and the first, all the way from the right deputy capital censor, the governor of Datong to the minister of the Ministry of War, and finally in charge of military affairs in Datong and Yansui Ganning, and named Wei Ningbo with military merits, so Xiao Wu called him "Wang Wei Ning" , was one of the three civil servants who were knighted for their military exploits in the Ming Dynasty.

The other two civil servants, one is Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji, who has been dead for 27 years, and once beat the Oirat army; Wang Shouren, a famous thinker, writer, and philosopher, was once conferred the title of Uncle Xinjian for his military exploits because he put down the Chenhao Rebellion.Of course, the Chenhao Rebellion happened in 1519, and there are still 32 years from now.

But this can also explain from the side how powerful the proprietress' father, Wang Yue, is.

But in fact, Cheng Xia doesn't appreciate Wang Yue very much. He has made great military achievements, but he has a lack of virtue after all.Wang Zhi, the great eunuch of the Xianzong Dynasty, had a serious collusion with him. In the end, Wang Yue was expelled because Wang Zhi was deposed and implicated. Comeback.

It's just that Cheng Xia remembered that Wang Yue should be relegated to Anlu at this moment, that is, in the Xiaogan area of ​​Hubei, and somehow he came to this small Chong'an County.

But it turns out that the wife of the shopkeeper is Wang Yue's daughter?

Xiao Wu talked to Cheng Xia for a long time without receiving any response. When he looked up, he saw that she was thinking about something, and he couldn't help waving his hands in front of her, "What are you thinking? Let me tell you, how do you know the name of the proprietress' father?"

Cheng Xia smiled, "The people in Chong'an County don't mention it. I heard it mentioned on the road, so I wrote it down."

Xiao Wu slapped his thigh excitedly, as if he was talking about himself, "If you want me to say, our shopkeeper is even more powerful. Our shopkeeper was a Jinshi in the early years of Chenghua, and he was also the first Jinshi and the first. A head name, although I don't know what it is, but it sounds amazing."

The shopkeeper really has such a background.During the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the palace examination was over, and all those who passed the examination became Jinshi.It's just that the titles of Jinshi are quite different. They are divided into Sanjia, the first class has three people, and they are awarded Jinshi and the second;For example, some famous figures in history, such as He Zhizhang, Wang Bo, Wang Wei, Bai Juyi, Su Shi, Wang Anshi, etc., were all born as Jinshi, but the shopkeeper Shang turned out to be a Jinshi. Buried, with his ability, he can easily gain a foothold in the three provinces and six departments.

Xiao Wu was still chattering, with admiration in his tone, "Our shopkeeper doesn't like to be an official. He resigned from the official position and traveled around the world to practice medicine and help the world. Like our shopkeeper's younger brother, the second brother is now an official in the Imperial Academy. The third younger brother is an official to the Shaoqing of the Ministry of Rites. If you want to say that the most powerful one is the father of our shopkeeper, that is."

"Xiao Wu! You're talking nonsense again!" Cheng Xia was listening intently, when he heard an angry yell to stop Xiao Wu's words, Cheng Xia looked up, and it was the shopkeeper bringing a woman over.

The woman is about forty years old, and she is as beautiful as a flower, and there is a romantic charm between her eyebrows and eyes. Cheng Xia fell in love with this proprietress at first sight.

After being reprimanded, Xiao Wu quickly stuck out his tongue and ran away in despair. How could he forget that the shopkeeper didn't let him talk about these things casually, so he broke the precept today.

Cheng Xia got up to meet the shopkeeper, and said hello one by one.

The proprietress took two steps forward and held Cheng Xia's hand, and looked at her with concern, "You are Cheng Xia, I just heard from Liang Zhong that your idea is very good, I have been frowning and don't know How should I deal with this restaurant, it's all right now, just do as you said, you are really amazing."

Seeing her being so approachable and approachable, Cheng Xia felt a little embarrassed.

Shang Liangzhong smiled heartily, "Don't be surprised, my wife has such a temper. When she sees someone she likes, she gets too close. She is the one who runs this restaurant, but the worse it gets, the worse she gets. When I went back to my mother’s house, I went looking for ideas, but I didn’t find any good ones. I mentioned to her about the medicinal food workshop on the way back, but she was very happy, so I was a little excited to see you.”

Cheng Xia smiled understandingly, looked at the eyes of the shopkeeper and the proprietress, full of intimacy and love, when talking, his right hand was unconsciously placed on the proprietress' waist, it could be seen that the couple had a very good relationship.

"Oh, okay, okay," the proprietress actually disliked Shang Liangzhong's talkativeness, and directly took Cheng Xia's hand to go to the opposite restaurant to talk.

Cheng Xia walked two steps and turned her head to see Dahua, and hurriedly said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, this is my sister-in-law."

Shang Liangzhong glanced at Dahua, smiled politely, Dahua was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground and sneak in, where had she seen such a big man, before when she came to Shangji Pharmacy to sell herbs, she was only in contact with the clerk. It's the first time I've seen the big boss.

"Shopkeeper, my sister-in-law must be a little weak. I brought her here today to let the doctor show her if there is any problem with her body. Oh, and those two porcelain jars of candied fruit are in the basket. Please tell the shopkeeper to weigh it."

Speaking of this, Cheng Xia suddenly remembered something, so he smiled and looked at the shopkeeper, "I don't know if the shopkeeper has found someone to make candied winter melon, has he ever made it?"

Shang Liangzhong laughed heartily when he heard this, "To tell you the truth, I really asked someone to try it, but the wax gourd was so soft that it couldn't be formed at all. It still couldn't work after using many methods. In the end, it couldn't be done, so I had to give up. gone."

Cheng Xia blinked and smiled, "That is to say, our business can continue in the future?"

"That's natural," the shopkeeper promised happily, "Your candied fruit will be used up in the pharmacy in less than two days. The children like it very much. Some parents even buy it separately, saying that the children really like it, so in the future You have to make more and send them over."

"No problem," Cheng Xia readily agreed. The proprietress at the side saw that they had finished speaking, and hurriedly dragged Cheng Xia away. Now she couldn't wait to know how to open this medicinal food workshop.

"Please, shopkeeper, help me take care of my sister-in-law!" Cheng Xia called back, and then followed the proprietress into the opposite restaurant.

The restaurant no longer has the decayed atmosphere it saw last time, it looks much cleaner and more elegant, and it won't make people feel like it's about to go bankrupt.

When we arrived at the private room on the second floor, the proprietress took the lead in introducing herself, "My name is Wang Hanxiao, and I am a generation older than you anyway, so you can call me Aunt Han."

Hearing what the proprietress said, Cheng Xia felt embarrassed, "No, no, how can you be so embarrassing?" I can't help but want to get close.

"What's so embarrassing about this? Aren't you called by people? I liked you the first time I saw you. You are clean and beautiful, and your little head is so easy to use. My niece, who has read a lot of poetry and books, can't even think of it. If you have any idea to bring the restaurant back to life, you can do it, so, you are even better. Come and sit down, don’t be too polite, I don’t like that. "

So Cheng Xia couldn't refuse, but she still sat opposite her, "Aunt Han, is this restaurant run by you?"

As soon as he asked the question, he heard a noise coming from downstairs. Cheng Xia was startled, and quickly got up and stood under the window to look. He saw a dark group of people standing in one place, talking endlessly about a newly posted notice.

Did something big happen?
