Chapter 33 Come pour us wine
"Sure enough? Is it really a man and a woman, are you extraordinarily handsome?" Gu Chuhan replied with a smile.

As soon as she said those words, the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly froze.

Boss Zhu, who was talking, looked at Gu Chuhan, with annoyance and contempt flashing in his eyes, which was somewhat unclear.

Shopkeeper Xue also secretly blamed Gu Chuhan for not being able to read his face. If it wasn't for his wife's words, it would be up to him, not to mention that his father was a murderer, even if he didn't commit a crime, a butcher's son wouldn't be able to sit at his table!But now I can't get stiff during the meal because of this, and I am about to say a few words to change the topic.

Gu Chuhan's smile deepened until he burst out laughing, touching his temple hair with a little narcissism, "Wherever you go, you are praised by such words! It's really distressing!"

She smiled lightly, jokingly.

Shopkeeper Xue realized that she was joking narcissistically, and laughed to ease the atmosphere.

Boss Zhu laughed the loudest.

Shopkeeper Xue immediately changed the topic, drank wine, and talked about business.

Gu Chuhan didn't speak, and from time to time, he took a chopstick and tasted it gracefully.

After drinking for two rounds, several people were drinking to their faces, and they were drinking to the fullest.Boss Zhu waved his hands to command Gu Chuhan, "Come pour us wine!"

It's okay if the adults and elders yell to pour the wine, but his face is full of meaning when he pours the wine, obviously he treats Gu Chuhan like a little girl.

"Too much alcohol hurts your body! The shopkeepers should drink two glasses less! I'll rush down the soup, so I can hangover for you!" Gu Chuhan said and stood up.

"Hey!~ Are you trying to run away? Letting you pour wine is also respectful of you!" Boss Zhu also stood up, and grabbed her arm as soon as he came up.

Seeing that his eyes were full of teasing, Gu Chuhan's face darkened, and he shot his eyes sharply.

I only felt a cold sharp sword piercing my heart, Boss Zhu was shocked, most of the drunkenness was sober, and he subconsciously withdrew his hand.

Gu Chuhan withdrew his gaze coldly, "It's just that the shopkeepers think highly of me, so I have to listen to the proprietress's advice and tell the shopkeepers to drink less, so as not to hurt themselves!" After speaking, he walked to the kitchen.

Boss Zhu shook his head, feeling dazzled and hallucinating just now, a kid who was only twelve years old had such sharp gazes and threats! ?
Shopkeeper Xue remembered Hong Yu's advice, and also called him back, "Divide the contents of the jug, and we won't drink any more! There are still things to do in the afternoon!" The briquette stove still needs to be done.

His cousin asked what to do.

Several people chatted about business again and shared the last glass of wine.

Gu Chuhan waited in the kitchen for a while, and brought the soup back to the table.

Hong Yu served rice again, and started to eat instead of drinking.

After the meal, shopkeeper Xue accompanied the guests to drink tea,
Hong Yu came in with a smile and urged them to leave politely, "We have to go out to do business now! We'll have a good meal later!"

Several people also knew that she was basically the head of the family, she was also real and capable, she said whatever she wanted, she joked and shouted that she owed a meal, and each left.

Shopkeeper Xue washed his face, changed his clothes again, and took Gu Jiulang out.

Hong Yu didn't follow, she wanted to see how Gu Chuhan could negotiate the business of this briquette coal stove with someone he didn't know well.She didn't let Gu Raniang go with her either, "Their men go out to discuss business and work, so let's stay home and wait for news!"

Gu Raniang couldn't follow her anymore, she was fidgeting in Hongyu's house, feeling uncomfortable and worried about Gu Chuhan.She reassures her, but this is not the village, how can she be relieved?The more I wait, the more anxious I become.

Gu Chuhan's side went very smoothly.She took the opportunity to learn about the current situation from the side.Coal mines have just been mined for a hundred years, and it has only been used by the common people in the last few years.

Although it is no longer regulated, the price of coal has also discouraged many people.Boss Zhou, who sells coal, mostly comes into contact with rich families, rich families with superior family circumstances.I saw Gu Chuhan's painting of briquette making, and the coal stove, and I liked it very much.Another acquaintance, shopkeeper Xue, took it with him, so he immediately gave Gu Chuhan two taels of silver, "If it is made and it is used as you said, I will give you another three taels!"

Five taels of silver was not what Gu Chuhan expected. Looking at Boss Zhou, he didn't look cunning either. He sighed secretly and shook his head, and said with a smile, "Okay! Wait for the news of Boss Zhou's big sale!"

Back at Hongyu's house, Gu Raniang immediately came to greet her, looked her up and down twice, and she didn't look like she was in trouble, so she calmed down and asked about the situation of the briquettes, "How is it?"

Gu Chuhan took out the silver and gave it to her, "I still have a few taels, and I'll give it to the coal briquettes and the stove."

Gu Raniang took the silver and was very happy. Now she had five taels of silver, which was enough for them to buy rice and noodles until they harvested the wheat!

"Brother Jiulang is really amazing! Draw a blueprint, solve the problem of burning coal, and get five taels of silver!" Xue Jinxiu said admiringly.

Gu Chuhan smiled, "Miss Boss! Shopkeeper Xue! Thank you so much for today! Let's not bother for now, and we'll come back when the drawings come out in a few days!"

"Okay! It's getting late and I won't keep you guys anymore! Take these things and be careful on the road!" Hong Yu packed up a bunch of dim sum fruits and apples and oranges, thinking that they shouldn't be able to eat them normally, so she insisted on letting them take them. superior.

Gu Raniang didn't dare to accept it, so she declined for a long time.Gu Chuhan asked to accept it, and then carried it with a guilty face, "We should have...but we didn't take anything when we came, but we took a bunch when we left!"

"Why are you being polite to us! We can't finish these things at home! There is only Jinxiu in my house, how much can she eat!" Hong Yu sent them out with a smile.

Xue Jinxiu deliberately ran to Gu Chuhan, "Brother Jiulang, I...I brought you a lot of oranges!" She saw that he ate two oranges and didn't eat anything else, so he must like oranges!

Seeing her asking for credit, Gu Chuhan smiled and said, "Thank you!"

When the two returned home, Gu Pozi, Gu Shilang, and Gu Ruoniang were all happy when they saw the things and money.

Not to mention Gu Chuhan, the family hasn't bought any fruit for two years, and they eat some of the melons and fruits grown in their own fields in summer.

"This is a kind family! You should help them draw more fancy clothes! Our family has nothing to repay them!" Mrs. Gu instructed several people.

Gu Chuhan looked at the appearance of several people agreeing, but did not refute.For them now, a little kindness is kindness!But it is also worth giving thanks for bringing warmth!

"Then let's draw the blueprints first! Just now, the second sister brought back a lot of rags from the proprietress, and it's time to practice!"

The money and food gave a lot of encouragement to the whole family, and the morale seemed to rise all of a sudden.

While talking, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Who is it?" Gu Raniang hurriedly raised her voice, grabbed the snack that Gu Ruonian was biting into and quickly wrapped it up and hid the apples and oranges in the cabinet.
