At night, Shen Xiu was lying on the bed, thinking about her future path. Thinking about this, Shen Xiu didn't fall asleep for a long time.
Wei Yan, who was next to her, wasn't asleep either. When he turned over, Shen Xiu said, "Ms. sir, you're not asleep either?"
In the dark night, Wei Yan found Shen Xiu's right hand on the pillow with great precision, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
Shen Xiu pulled back her hand, but Wei Yan held it tightly and couldn't pull it out for a while.
Wei Yan pinched her fingers and asked again: "Why aren't you sleeping?"
Shen Xiu coughed lightly and said calmly, "I'm thinking about my future livelihood."
"Then what are your plans?"
When mentioning this matter, Shen Xiu's enthusiasm for her career overcame her shyness and she said excitedly: "The first step is of course to save more money. When you have enough money, you will open an embroidery shop of your own."
In fact, it has always been Shen Xiu's dream to open her own store.
It's just that when I first came here, I couldn't even fill my stomach, so I could only put this dream on hold for the time being.
Now that the problem of food and clothing was solved and she had her own house, Shen Xiu had the idea of opening a shop again.
"It's not easy to open an embroidery shop in the county, and now that there are more Ruyi embroidery shops in the city, it will be even harder to do business." Shen Xiu said while analyzing calmly, "So what I am doing now
The goal is to save money and wait for the right time.”
Wei Yan said: "The right time you mentioned is the day when Ruyi Embroidery Shop closes down."
Shen Xiu did not answer immediately, but touched Wei Yan's belly, and then said exaggeratedly: "Ms. sir, are you not the roundworm in my belly? Why do you know everything about what I am thinking?"
Wei Yan chuckled and grabbed her left hand, "I don't know if it's roundworms. I just know that if you touch it again, I will touch it back."
When Shen Xiu heard this, she immediately retracted her hand, and then quickly changed the subject and said, "Ms. sir, this Ruyi Embroidery Workshop has always been a serious concern for the embroidery village. What do you think we should do to make it evacuate here as soon as possible?"
"Originally, there are only two embroidery shops in the county, and they are doing well. But they want to step in. I heard shopkeeper Liu say that another embroidery shop in the county that makes wedding clothes can no longer sustain itself."
Wei Yan was still lamenting that she was as slippery as a loach. After hearing this question, he thought about it seriously and said: "Every bustle in the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit. Ruyi Embroidery Shop opened a shop to do business.
Of course it’s for profit.”
"If you want it to evacuate the county, there are only two situations. One is that it is no longer profitable in the county, and the other is that there are other places where it can make more profits."
Wei Yan continued: "I don't recommend you to use the first method. It will offend people to death. Once the other party is defeated, they may not do anything."
"Then there's only the second way to go." Shen Xiudao, she didn't want to completely offend Ruyi Embroidery Studio. She heard that the other party also had certain forces behind it.
Wei Yan hummed and said, "I don't know much about business matters, but I think you are so smart that you should be able to think of a solution."
Shen Xiudao: "After your analysis, I really thought of a good way."
The second path Wei Yan mentioned did provide her with an idea.
Although Shen Xiu was not a serious businessman in her previous life, she had opened a shop in partnership with others, and she had experienced ups and downs in the business world.
After thinking about it carefully, she came up with an idea.
"Ms. sir, you are really my good military advisor. No, you should be said to be my lucky star." Shen Xiu leaned towards Wei Yan and said, "If it hadn't been for you to make up the ancient books last time, I wouldn't have thought of a way to embroider the screen."
She came so close that her breath hit Wei Yan's face.
Wei Yan remained motionless, but his voice became hoarse, "Then how are you going to thank me?"
Shen Xiu originally said it casually, but when she heard Wei Yan's words, her face couldn't help but blush. Of course she realized the meaning of Wei Yan's words. Last time, in order to express her gratitude, she kissed him directly in excitement.
Now that he said this, the meaning could not be clearer.
However, last time she acted out of habit and mistook Wei Yan for Da Ya. Now she is clearly aware of who the person in front of her is, so naturally it is hard for her to act.
Wei Yan couldn't wait for her answer, so he grabbed her right hand, pulled it forward, and said in her ear: "Tell me, how should you thank me?"
His voice was low and hoarse, blowing into Shen Xiu's ears and soon causing her body to tremble.
She wanted to hide back, but was held tightly. Since she couldn't retreat or hide, she simply changed her mind, lowered her head, and kissed Wei Yan directly on the face.
It was probably because she was too nervous and exerted too much force. In the quiet night, she could only hear a chirp that was particularly clear.
When this sound sounded, both of them were stunned. The reason was that it was so loud that the ambiguous atmosphere that originally existed between them disappeared.
Shen Xiu was too embarrassed to face it, so she simply covered herself with a quilt.
Wei Yan couldn't hold it back for a long time, and finally chuckled: "Axiu, you are so cute!"
Shen Xiu muttered under the quilt: "Shut up!"
Wei Yan pulled her, "It's such a hot day, be careful to cover yourself with prickly heat."
But Shen Xiu felt that she was too embarrassed just now and refused to come out.
Wei Yan could only coax her with gentle words, "Come out, I have something to tell you."
"If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Wei Yan saw that she couldn't come out, so he had no choice but to let her go and said softly: "Today, a senior academic official came to our academy."
When Shen Xiu heard about Master Xuezheng, she couldn't care less about the embarrassment and hurriedly lifted up the quilt and said, "Why did Master Xuezheng go to your academy?"
Wei Yan explained: "He is an academic official sent by the imperial court. Naturally, he has to go to the county school and visit the academies."
"Then did the academic master say anything and did he think highly of you?" Shen Xiu asked excitedly.
Wei Yan is so outstanding that it is impossible for Master Xuezheng not to notice him.
Wei Yan smiled slightly: "Master Xuezheng gave me a jade pendant and asked me to go to the capital to find him when I take the examination."
"Besides giving you the jade pendant, did he say anything else?"
Wei Yan said: "He originally wanted to lend me some history books, but since he didn't have them with him, he asked Magistrate Zuo to help find a few sets of history books."
Shen Xiu had known Magistrate Zuo for a long time, and immediately asked: "So, Magistrate Zuo was there when Master Xuezheng went to the academy. What does Magistrate Zuo look like?"
Wei Yan didn't understand why she was so curious about Zuo County Magistrate's appearance. He thought about it and said, "Zuo County Magistrate is a handsome man with an outstanding temperament."
"No wonder!" Shen Xiu muttered in a low voice.
Wei Yan asked: "What's the wonder?"
Shen Xiu lowered her voice and said, "Let me tell you something. Don't tell anyone else. This county magistrate has some unclear relationship with the daughter-in-law of the county magistrate's arrester."
"How did you know?"
Shen Xiudao: "Don't worry about how I know it. As long as you know, it's probably true." After saying that, he rolled his eyes in the dark night and said, "You men just like to sneak around."
Wei Yan coughed lightly: "Don't say this nonsense."
Shen Xiu clicked her tongue and said, "Ms. sir, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to defend Magistrate Zuo, or are you also like this..."
As a result of her nonsense, Wei Yan stuffed her into bed and ordered her to sleep immediately.
