Chapter 73 A distinguished visitor
Mrs. Shen was sensitive. Seeing that her daughter looked unhappy, she immediately asked, "Ruoyan, tell me honestly, do you have any grudge against him?"
"How could that be?" Thinking of the scene of Jiang Chengfeng spanking her little butt that night, Shen Ruoyan's cheeks turned red with shame, and she said stubbornly, "No, it's not true, don't worry, mother!"
Madam Shen sighed and said, "Ruoyan, the Shen family is now supported by you with great difficulty. Mother loves you so much!"
Shen Ruoyan's eyes were red, she tried hard to hold back her tears, and said with a forced smile: "Mother, I am not miserable! I will definitely live up to your expectations and will not let the Shen family fall into my hands!"
After walking out of the front yard, Jiang Chengfeng went straight towards his own courtyard, but was stopped by a little maid who came running in a hurry.
"Brother Dazhu, hurry...someone is looking for you! In the living room!" said the little maid breathlessly.
Jiang Chengfeng had a headache, thinking that maybe Yang Liu, Liu Yunxian's personal maid, invited him to a banquet tonight again? He had been attending banquets every day during this period, so could it be that Liu Yunxian had fallen in love with him? Oh my god!
However, when he arrived at the living room in front, Jiang Chengfeng saw a young man in brocade clothes chatting with Young Master Zhao with his back to him. Looking at the back of the young man in brocade clothes, he always felt that he seemed familiar.
Hearing the footsteps, the young man in brocade clothes stood up, bowed and said, "Brother Jiang, I am Ye Shengxian, the younger brother, for coming to visit you in a presumptuous way. Please forgive me, Brother Jiang!"
Jiang Chengfeng was stunned, then smiled and said, "It turned out to be Brother Ye, I thought before -"
Ye Shengxian smiled mischievously and interrupted, "I thought it was Miss Yunxian?"
Jiang Chengfeng scratched his head, laughed dryly and said nothing.
Ye Shengxian was a little curious and asked, "Brother Jiang, I'm actually very surprised. There are so many talented people in Huayang who want to be favored by Miss Yunxian, but this good thing has fallen on you, why are you so unhappy?"
Jiang Chengfeng shrugged his shoulders. "I can only look at it but not eat it. I am anxious every day. How can I like it?"
Ye Shengxian was stunned, then burst into laughter.
Ye Shengxian was of prominent status, being the son of the governor. Normally, it was Miss Shen who should have received him in person, but Miss Shen was unmarried and therefore it was inconvenient for her to receive guests, so Mrs. Shen had to come forward to receive him.
We just separated, and now I see Mrs. Shen again, but I find that she looks tired. Her former grace and elegance are gone. I can't help but sigh secretly. It seems that the joint venture is really too difficult for them.
Madam Shen chatted with Ye Shengxian for a few words, and then she realized that Mr. Ye had come all the way to see Jiang Chengfeng, so she smiled and said to Jiang Chengfeng: "Jiang Dazhu, since Mr. Ye came all the way to see you, please entertain him well for me!"
Ye Shengxian was very modest and waved his hand quickly, saying, "How dare I trouble Brother Jiang to entertain you? I came here to ask for advice!"
Mrs. Shen smiled without saying anything, but her heart was filled with turmoil.
She knew that Jiang Dazhu had some talent, but he shouldn't be so highly praised by Mr. Ye, right? However, thinking of his brilliant analysis of the joint venture today, she began to feel that Jiang Dazhu was not a simple person.
But no matter what, if the Shen family can become friends with the Ye family, it would be a great joyous event, and she would naturally be happy to see it.
So she winked at Jiang Chengfeng, signaling him to entertain her well, and then said goodbye and left.
Ye Shengxian was lively and active. He couldn't sit still for a while after sitting down. He said, "Brother Jiang, why don't we go out for a walk? To be honest, I really don't like sitting and drinking tea and chatting!"
Jiang Chengfeng laughed. Ye Shengxian was very straightforward. In fact, he also wanted to go out for a walk. Yipinxuan was about to open, and he hadn't seen Ah Hui for a long time and missed her.
Although he was able to go out some time ago, it was always at night and he went straight to Mantingfang. Today he went out during the day and followed Mrs. Shen's request, so he could have a more comfortable time.
Walking out of the Shen Mansion and looking at the busy street in front of the Shen Mansion, Jiang Chengfeng felt much better.
"Alas, if Brother Ye hadn't come, I wouldn't be so happy?"
Ye Shengxian was stunned. He turned to look at Jiang Chengfeng and found that he was wearing black clothes and a black hat. He immediately understood and said curiously, "In fact, with Brother Jiang's talent, he doesn't need to be a servant in the Shen Mansion. Does Brother Jiang want to stay in the Shen Mansion for the rest of his life?"
Liu Yunxian and Meng Jianglin also asked this question, and Ye Shengxian was the third one. At this time, even Jiang Chengfeng himself was a little skeptical. Could it be that Laozi was so talented?
"Life is like a dream, it passes in the blink of an eye! If every single thing requires a lot of thought, what's the point of living?"
Ye Shengxian bowed his head and pondered, then he bowed and smiled, "Brother Jiang, what you said is very interesting. I will learn from you!"
After a pause, he asked again, "By the way, did Longbai come to cause trouble?"
"Longbai?" Jiang Chengfeng didn't quite understand what Ye Shengxian meant, and looked at Ye Shengxian in confusion.
"Brother Jiang doesn't know much about him, but I am very familiar with him! He has always coveted Liu Yunxian's beauty, and Brother Jiang, you are close to Miss Yunxian, so he will naturally take revenge!"
Jiang Chengfeng pondered in silence.
If it was really as Ye Shengxian said, he should be careful. After all, he was just an ordinary servant, and it would be easy for a young man like Long Bai to take revenge on him.
With this in mind, Jiang Chengfeng was thinking about whether or not to lure Ye Shengxian into the Dragon and Tiger Sect. With this guy backing him up, wouldn't he be able to walk all over Huayang City in the future?
After the two of them left the house, they did not take a carriage, but walked to Yipinxuan. Ye Shengxian admired Jiang Chengfeng's "talent", so he asked some strange questions from time to time, as if Jiang Chengfeng knew everything.
Jiang Chengfeng, who has lived two lives, is also good at adapting to changes. His answers always make Ye Shengxian feel refreshed and admired.
As they chatted, the two came to Yipinxuan by the Bibo Lake. It was still under renovation when they came last time, but now, nearly half a month has passed, and Yipinxuan has been almost finished, and the overall effect is very different from before.
Ye Shengxian had been to Yipinxuan before, but today it looked brand new. He couldn't help wondering, "Why has Yipinxuan changed its appearance?"
Jiang Chengfeng smiled mysteriously and said, "Brother Ye, please follow me!"
Today, Yipinxuan has been completely renovated inside and out, and there is no trace of its former appearance left.
Ye Shengxian followed Jiang Chengfeng to the public restaurant on the first floor, and saw that the entire hall was beautifully decorated, and the decoration style was completely different from any current decoration style. The layout of the restaurant was staggered, and although there were many tables, chairs and benches, it was not messy.
After a long while, Ye Shengxian came to his senses from the shock and couldn't help but sigh, "This restaurant is really extraordinary! Just from the decoration and layout, we can tell that the owner of this restaurant is very creative and has his own unique way of doing things. His business will surely be booming in the future, and it will be very easy to make a fortune!"
Jiang Chengfeng was delighted, but he said modestly: "Brother Ye, you are so kind!"
