Chapter 154 Have you been very close to your family recently?
After Chu Run left, the couple from the third room also came up and exchanged a few words with Chu Ling. They were all simple greetings and had no special meaning. When everyone was done greeting, the old lady ordered Shichunfen to take Chu Ling back to rest.
During the whole process, Chu Ling didn't even look at Shi Chunquin, which made her feel aggrieved.
On the way back, Chu Ling walked in front with an expressionless face, and Shi Chunquin followed step by step behind him. The atmosphere was so serious that even Hongxing and Lutao felt embarrassed.
Lu Tao has always been a discerning person. Seeing that something was wrong, she immediately said: "Uncle, grandma knew that you were coming out today. She got up early in the morning and waited for you. She also prepared grapefruit leaves for you to take a bath. She also went to the kitchen to watch lunch.
Yes, I’m afraid you won’t feel comfortable eating.”
Shi Chunfen glanced at her and said calmly: "Talk too much."
Chu Ling finally turned around, his eyebrows as sharp as ever, but his expression softened slightly, and he looked at her with a half-smile, "Really? Are you so attentive?"
It sounded like just an ordinary inquiry, but Shi Chunfen inexplicably sensed a hint of sarcasm. She looked at Chu Ling blankly, not knowing where she had offended him. She lowered her eyes and smiled reluctantly, "It's just a human being.
It’s just my wife’s duty, sir, please stop making fun of me.”
Her voice was gentle and soft, clearly showing weakness to Chu Ling.
In the past, Chu Ling would definitely be defeated and take the initiative to lead her back, but today he just took a deep look at Shi Chunfen and turned back expressionlessly, "Thank you for your hard work."
These four simple words made Shi Chunfen's nose sore and she felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.
For her, no matter how much she did, it couldn't be called hard work. What was hard was Chu Ling's attitude towards her. She was waiting for Chu Ling to come out happily, thinking that he would praise her for doing well during this period. In the end, not only did he
He didn't do that, and he showed her a face.
What had she done wrong to let him ruin her feelings like this?
Chu Ling returned to the courtyard with a cold face. The atmosphere was so solemn that even Sang Pi and others stayed away. Shi Chunfen followed him all the time. He couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it. He immersed himself in eating in silence to avoid thinking more and more.
Feel sad.
Seeing that she had a good appetite, Chu Ling's face became even more ugly. Halfway through the meal, Chu Ling said expressionlessly, "Are you very close to your mother's family recently?"
Shi Chunfen was stunned. Unexpectedly, the first thing Chu Ling did after coming out was to ask her this. She felt a little embarrassed for a while, "I have to ask my aunts to help me take care of the business of the tea house, so I often stay with them."
Chu Ling hummed and said nothing more.
Shi Chunfen looked at his face carefully, thinking that he was unhappy about supporting her mother's family, and she suddenly became at a loss, "I'm sorry, don't you like me letting them work in the tea house? But before
I said I wanted my aunt to come into the tea house to take care of the accounts, and you agreed. I thought you didn’t mind..."
Chu Ling didn't even raise his head, "I don't mind."
Shi Chunquin was stunned on the spot, so why was he angry?
The air became silent again, and neither of them spoke anymore. Shi Chunfen had a lot of questions in her heart, but she was afraid that after asking, Chu Ling's answer would be difficult for her to accept. She has always been a timid person, and when others asked her
Putting up the shield, she will quickly retreat into her own safe zone, and no one can pull her out.
Chu Ling had no intention of continuing, so the two of them finished their meal quietly, and then Chu Ling went to take a bath.
By the time Chu Ling came out from the bath, Chun Equinox had already placed all his account books on the table, and they were considered to have been returned to their original owners.
Chu Ling glanced at it and said calmly: "How is the business of the tea house?"
When mentioning this, Shi Chunfen looked ashamed, "It's not very good."
Except for the big business in Caobang on the first day, there were basically only sporadic small businesses in the following days. For such a large tea house, it was obviously not well-run.
Chu Ling was not too surprised when he heard this, "The audience for Bitter Taste is already small. This is your first time doing business without the support of the Chu family. It is normal that not many people buy it. As long as we work steadily, I will
I believe that Jiuku Tea House will definitely take root in Liuzhou."
"Yeah." Shi Chunfen nodded slightly, feeling confident instantly.
After talking about business matters, Chu Ling seemed to have nothing to talk about. He glanced at the sky outside the window and saw that it was still early, so he said calmly: "I have something to go out for. You don't have to wait for me to come back for dinner tonight."
"Oh." Shi Chunfen responded dully. She thought Chu Ling would stay at home to rest today.
After Chu Ling left, Hongxing and Lutao came over. Seeing her depressed look, they couldn't help but said: "I don't know what happened, but I finally lifted the ban and am not reunited with my grandma at home. I have to do this."
Ran."
Shi Chunfen smiled lightly, "Maybe he really has something to do."
"What could be more important than grandma..." Hongxing couldn't help but muttered: "Grandma has been busy all morning for him, and he doesn't even have a good look on his face."
"Okay, Hongxing." Lvtao scolded: "If you dare to chew the base of my master's tongue, you will suffer the consequences if it reaches my ears."
Hongxing shrank her neck and didn't dare to say anything.
Shi Chunquin did not answer their words and said calmly: "Where did Usagi go?"
During this period of time, she excused herself to let Yu Atu recover from her injuries and didn't take her out much. She seemed to accept it readily, and she didn't hang out in front of the Spring Equinox for a long time.
Until Chu Ling lifted the ban today, Yu Atu still didn't show up. Only then did he realize that something was wrong. This feeling of something wrong was exactly the same as when Chu Ying didn't show up. Two people who were once so obsessed with Chu Ling, even if it really happened
I have no interest in him anymore, so I should come to join in the fun. Why has he been missing all morning?
Seeing her asking about this, Hongxing and Lutao looked at each other, their expressions a little hesitant.
Shi Chunquin noticed their embarrassment and his expression became serious, "What happened?"
Lu Tao didn't dare to hide anything, and said frankly: "Usagi is staying at the house during this period, and seems to be very close to the people in the second room."
"Second room?" Shi Chunfen frowned, "There are so many people in the second room, which one are you referring to?"
Lu Tao answered honestly, "It seems to be Master Quan."
"Chu Quan?" Shi Chun Equinox's cheeks darkened.
That guy has always been ill-intentioned towards Dafang, but Usagi actually hooked up with him?
Recalling that her previous injury was also related to Chu Quan, Shi Chunfen suddenly couldn't sit still, "Catch her back to me immediately, and I'll ask her what she wants to do!"
She was rarely so angry that Hongxing and Lutao didn't dare to neglect her. They immediately ran out to find two rough women, and went to catch Yu Utu back.
