Gu Yi had a serious look on his face, “He should want to climb up to our family, after all, big brother is now in the Hanlin Academy and has a bright future ahead.”
“Is that so?”
Song Wangyue asked slowly.
Gu Yi’s heart fluttered a few times, trying hard not to blink, “What other reason could there be?”
After saying that, she seemed to think of something else, and instantly stared in surprise, “She couldn’t be still thinking about big brother, thinking that she’ll have a chance to see him again after she marries third uncle, and then seduce him?”
Song Wangyue rested her cheeks, listening to her finish, and laughed quietly.
The smile made Gu Yi’s hair stand on end, “Am I, am I wrong?”
“Young Master Gu ……”
Song Wan Yue asked word for word, “Do you think you’re stupid or I’m stupid?”
“Young master, Miss Song, the restaurant has arrived.”
Gu Yi felt that Xiao Si’s voice was the voice of heaven, it had never sounded so good.
Seeing his relieved expression, Song Wangyue stood up, gave him a hard stomp on the top of his foot and lifted the carriage curtain to go down.
Gu Yi almost cried out in pain, feeling that if the little girl stepped on him a few more times, his foot would definitely be ruined.
Seeing that Song Wangyue was about to go inside and Gu Yi had not moved, Xiao Si lifted the curtain and saw the footprints on Gu Yi’s feet, so he knew that he had been stepped on again by Miss Song, and was not sure whether to help him down.
“What are you still standing there for?”
Gu Yi glared at him.
Only then did Xiao Si hurriedly extend his hand and help him down, raising his eyes to see that Song Wan Yue had already walked in, before he whispered, “Young master, what have you done to provoke Miss Song again?”
He had to inquire clearly to avoid making the same mistake as the young master.
“Want to know?”
Junior nodded his head as if he were mashing it.
“The little girl says you’re not serving too well, so I should get a new boy.”
Xiao Si froze in shock.
Gu Yi pushed him away and dusted the dirt off his feet, walking into the tavern as if he hadn’t been stepped on.
“Young master.”
Boss Wei and the fellows inside the tavern saluted, and Gu Yi nodded slightly as he followed Song Wangyue towards the back.
He was still standing at the door and wondered why Xiao Si, who had always been a resourceful person, had been so stupid as to stand at the door and not come in.
“How is business these days?”
Song Wangyue asked after entering the room and sitting down.
“The weather is hotter and fewer people are eating hot pot, but overall there’s no big impact, it’s time to get our herbal tea on.”
Song Wan Yue nodded, “I have nothing to do today, so I’ll make some when I return to the mansion and have a full meal. When there are no more guests, you can take the guys over to get it.”
Wei’s boss answered.
“There is one more thing that I need your help with.”
“Miss Song, please command.”
“Miss Qi of the Wei Yuan Dart Company is going to marry my third uncle.”
The face of Wei’s boss trembled a little, although it was very slight, Song Wangyue still saw it in her eyes, and continued without moving, “I don’t want her to know about the family’s pill business for the time being, so I can’t let her family go to the house, you take the trouble to find another mansion, one that is closer to the dart board, it doesn’t matter if it’s smaller.”
“That’s an ordinary house, that’s fine, when the guests are gone, I’ll go to the dentist’s office and ask around for others as well.”
“There’s no hurry, she’s injured now, she can’t get married for a while, and the wedding is still early, so take your time to ask around.”
The shopkeeper replied, and when he saw that there was nothing more to do, he withdrew. When he saw Xiao Si scratching his ears and standing at the door, he was puzzled, “What’s wrong with you?”
Xiao Si pulled him away and told him what Gu Yi had just said, “Do you think what the young master said is true or not?”
The boss Wei held his forehead, after a trip to the capital he had thought that Xiao Si would have gained insight, but who knew that he would be foolish instead, “Naturally it is false, you have been with the young master since you were young, the young master is already used to you serving him, he would be very uncomfortable with someone else.”
“Is that so?”
Xiao Si would be convinced.
It wasn’t that he had become stupid, it was that he knew Song Wangyue had already guessed the young master’s birth, and it was just that the young master couldn’t tell her the truth, and he was afraid that Song Wangyue would relent to his anger.
The boss of Wei was puzzled, Xiao Si had always been smart, how could he not hear that the young master was lying to him? But not only did he not hear it, he didn’t even believe what he said, “Tell me honestly, did something happen in the capital?”
Xiao Si pulled him a little further away and looked around to see if no one was there, his voice was so low that only the two of them could hear it, “Miss Song should have guessed the young master’s identity.”
Shopkeeper Wei’s eyes widened in shock, “How could the young master be so careless?”
“The young master can’t help it. We are being watched by the Duke of Qi, and if we don’t think of ways to scare him out of his senses, I’m afraid he will trip us up and not let the young master leave the capital. And, you know, the young master he ……”
“Little Four!”
Gu Yi’s voice came from inside the house.
Xiao Si was so frightened that he didn’t finish the words behind him and hurried over.
“Go carry a jar of good wine and put it on the carriage.”
Xiao Si answered and went to the wine cellar.
Boss Wei was about to follow him when Song Wangyue and Gu Yi came out of the house, so Boss Wei had to put off the idea of pursuing them further and respectfully escorted them out.
On the way back, Song Wangyue asked the coachman to take a detour to the pharmacy and buy herbs for making herbal tea, and when she returned home, the dumplings were just in time to be cooked.
Gu Yi asked Xiao Si to bring in the wine jars.
Seeing the wine, the old man’s eyes lit up at once.
It turned out that he was allowed to drink a little, but since he had fainted that time, Song Wangyue had not allowed him to drink even once, even though everyone in the house listened to her. There were times when he was so hungry that he wanted Xu Liang to “steal” some for him in the middle of the night, but Xu Liang didn’t dare.
He couldn’t be too obvious in front of the youngsters, so the old man tried not to make a sound, “It’s rare for us to get together as a family, so we should drink more today.”
Master Song immediately followed suit, “Old man is right, we need to drink more, let’s not use wine goblets, let’s just use small bowls.”
His words were exactly what the old man wanted, and before anyone else could say anything, the old man spoke up, “Go, bring the small bowls, let’s have a good drink.”
Meng wanted to stop her, but was stopped by Song Wan Yue, “Grandma, don’t worry, Grandpa will be fine with a little wine.”
Seeing that no one was stopping him, the old gentleman grew bold and asked Xiao Si to pour him a small bowl full of wine, and when he saw that there was none in front of Gu Yi, he instructed Xiao Si, “Fill it up for your young master too.”
“He won’t drink.”
Song Wangyue’s clear voice rang out.
Gu Yi immediately said, “Yes, I don’t drink, I’m allergic to wine.”
The crowd, ……
……
full of wine and food, the old man was slightly drunk, and Master Song’s dark face was red, only Meng Yang was in high spirits, and after the crowd had left, he asked Song Wan Yue, “Yue’er, when are you going to make the pills for Uncle Grandfather.”
“I will start making them tomorrow, and in a while, I will first make the herbal tea that the restaurant needs to use.
“Herbal tea?”
Meng Yang was even more energised.
