Chapter 345: Surprised to see the male protagonist
Ruan Qi returned to "Only This One" with a confused mood.
Shopkeeper Hu saw him dumbfounded and said, "Have you hit a snag? It's normal for people not to tell you."
"No, she told me." Ruan Qi said, "It's just..."
He told Shopkeeper Hu what Mu Siyu said.
Shopkeeper Hu's eyes lit up: "What a great idea! Hold a large-scale event like this and gather colleagues from all over the city. First, you can sell them a favor; second, you can develop the business in Suzhou City; third, you can attract more people.
No matter how prosperous the city of Suzhou is, can customers still buy beds or tables every day? If this sign is launched, customers from several nearby cities will definitely come after hearing the news, and that will be a long-term business."
"I originally just wanted to compete with her alone," Ruan Qi said.
"Boss, why are you staring at this Boss Mu?" Shopkeeper Hu smiled kindly, "She has a husband, you shouldn't..."
"Uncle Hu, what are you talking about?" Ruan Qi frowned, "I'm just curious about her craftsmanship."
Shopkeeper Hu shook his head and said no more.
Ruan Qi is good at everything, but he is obsessed with carpentry. When he sees someone with good craftsmanship, he wants to compete with him. He has encountered many mistakes in these years, but he still doesn't know how to restrain himself.
While Mu Siyu was busy preparing for the exhibition, she also had to plan the decoration design of Zhongwang Courtyard. She was so busy every day that she had no time to visit the place where Lu Shaoyu and Mu Zhenghan studied.
"Shaoyu." Mu Siyu was sitting in the carriage. When she saw Lu Shaoyu and a young man in green clothes walking on the street, she called the driver to stop.
She got out of the carriage.
"Mother." Lu Shaoyu stopped when he saw Mu Siyu.
The young boy turned around and his eyes showed curiosity when he saw Mu Siyu.
"Is this your friend?" Mu Siyu said, "It's dinner time now, why don't you invite your friends to your house for dinner? I happen to be at home today and will make some side dishes for you to try."
Mu Siyu met Lu Shaoyu for the first time and made friends. Seeing that the two got along well, she stopped to say hello.
In fact, she regretted it after she stopped. With Lu Shaoyu's slow-warming personality, they should be given space to be alone. However, when she saw Lu Shaoyu, she made a decision as soon as her forehead heated up, which was a bit impulsive.
"Auntie, my surname is Chu, my given name is Yan, my courtesy name is Guangsheng. I am a classmate of Brother Shaoyu," Chu Yan said.
Mu Siyu: "..."
Chu Yan!
This name is very familiar!
Doesn’t the male protagonist like to use this name when he goes on tour incognito?
Chu is his mother's surname, and Yan is really his name. But his real name is not Chu Yan, but Fan Yan.
Wait, maybe it's just the same name, let her figure it out.
That novel was written from the perspective of the female protagonist, and the second perspective was that of the male protagonist, so there was more space devoted to these two people.
Xiao Yun'er is a vicious female supporting character, she is five years younger than the male protagonist. In other words, the male protagonist should be thirteen years old now.
Also, the male protagonist has a scar between his eyebrows. It is said that he was scratched by a dog when he was a child.
Mu Siyu looked at Chu Yan's eyebrows, and there was indeed a very light scratch on the right eyebrow.
"Is Xiao Chu from the capital?" Mu Siyu asked.
"How does aunt know?"
Mu Siyu smiled and said calmly: "Your accent sounds a bit similar. I often meet with different customers, including those from the capital."
It seems like it’s really him!
The same name, the same word, similar age, plus the scar between the eyebrows, even a coincidence cannot be that good.
"Mom, Brother Guangsheng and I have something to do, so we won't go home for dinner. We can just have a few bites outside." Lu Shaoyu said.
"Okay, then..." Mu Siyu smiled, "I'll go back first."
Sitting in the carriage, Mu Siyu thought about the male protagonist Chu Yan.
In the original work, Chu Yan and the Lu family should not have known each other so early, so their fate has changed long ago.
Chu Yan is the prince, the younger brother of King Zhong.
Now he is just an unpopular prince who likes to travel and make friends, which also laid the foundation for him to later seize the throne.
However, maybe she is petty-minded, as long as she thinks that this Chu Yan is the person who caused everyone in the Lu family to end miserably, she doesn't want to make friends with such a person.
At night, Lu Shaoyu came back.
Mu Siyu knocked on his door with a midnight snack.
Lu Shaoyu opened the door: "Mother."
"You know it's me?"
"Um."
Lu Shaoyu took the dinner plate from her hand.
"How do you feel in the academy today?"
"It's no different from usual." Lu Shaoyu ate wontons, "You want to ask the Chu Yan you met today?"
Mu Siyu sat down opposite him: "Is it so obvious? This is the first time I've seen you have good friends. I'm curious and just wanted to ask."
"We just met." Lu Shaoyu said, "Master said he was the child of an old friend and asked me to help take care of him, so I took him around."
"oh!"
"What's wrong with this person?" Lu Shaoyu asked.
"No, why would you ask that?"
"You looked a little strange after seeing him today." She was his mother, could she hide her expression from him? He could tell at a glance that something was not right about her expression.
"I just think this child looks really good," Mu Siyu said, "Of course, I don't want to interfere with your making friends. You are so smart, I believe in your ability to make friends."
Lu Shaoyu ate wontons and looked at her.
She seems to be particularly concerned about this Chu Yan.
In fact, it didn't matter to him. The man looked like he was smiling to everyone, which seemed quite fake.
"Don't worry, Mom, I'm not so easily deceived."
Mu Siyu let out a breath.
That's true.
Even if it is the original work, the Lu family and his son later climbed so high that even the emperor was very afraid of them. Later, he tried every means to get rid of them, but the methods he used were not aboveboard.
The so-called male protagonist has nothing to fear, let alone a male protagonist in his teenage years.
She is indeed a little too influenced by the original work.
Now this plane is not the original one, her little wings have already blown away the plot.
"Then you go to bed early, mother will go back first."
"good."
Mu Siyu returned to the room, and instead of taking a rest, she wrote down the plots in her memory.
Although I know it is different, I will write it down first and see if I get back on track in a few years. If I get back on track, I have to be careful.
"Madam..." Zisu opened the door and came in, "Mr. Wen wants to talk to you about the account books."
"Account books?" Mu Siyu said, "I haven't rested yet, please invite him in!"
Not long after Zisu went out, Wen Yi followed her in.
"Madam, I'm disturbing you so late. You're often not in the store during the day, and I couldn't find you even if I tried to look for you. It's not too late yet, and I see you haven't rested, so I came here to disturb you."
"Mr. Wen, there's no need to say that. I'll leave the store's account books to you. What you want to talk about is business matters, so don't bother me. You just said you wanted to talk about the account books. Is there something wrong with the account books?"
