farmer's wife

Chapter 198
After returning to the mansion, as soon as he entered the Qijingyuan, Nuo Nuo's crying came over.

Fu Yan frowned, and hurried to the backyard.

In the main hall of the backyard, Granny Shi was holding Nuo Nuo, while Ye Tianze and Xiao Jian were making funny faces in various ways to try to make her laugh, but Nuo Nuo didn't look at them, so she closed her eyes and cried sadly.

Xiao Jian pursed her mouth, but the movements of her anxious hands were gentle.He wiped away tears for his little niece like a grown-up, and coaxed softly: "Nuo Nuo, please stop crying, okay? Sister-in-law will be back in a while. Little uncle will play with you."

"What's wrong?" Fu Yan hurried to Granny Shi.

When Nuonuo saw her mother, she cried less, but still turned sideways in her direction and begged for a hug.

Fu Yan took the daughter and walked along her back.

Xiao Jian breathed a sigh of relief: "When we came back from school, Nuo Nuo was crying. We cried for a long time, so I couldn't coax him well." But he was very anxious.

Granny Shi said helplessly: "I woke up in the afternoon and played for a while, and cried when I couldn't wait for you."

After Xiao Lie left, Nuonuo would stay quietly and play beside Granny Shi and others only when she saw her familiar mother, if she couldn't see her for a long time, she would cry.

Nunuuo grabbed Fu Yan's clothes with her small hands, and murmured "Mother, mother" and shrank into her arms.

"Mother is here, stop crying." Fu Yan coaxed her daughter distressedly.

Surrounded by her mother's familiar warm scent, Nuo Nuo stopped crying, and Ye Tianze and Xiao Jian teased her, the little girl finally showed a smile.

After dinner with Qi Tong, seeing that Nuo Nuo still wanted to rely on her, Fu Yan simply took the child to the study.

Granny Shi was sitting on the side couch playing with glutinous glutinous rice balls in her arms, while Fu Yan was sitting behind the desk looking through the accounts.

As far as the eye can see, there is the figure of the mother, Nuo Nuo stopped crying and played in peace, and only looked up at Fu Yan from time to time to make sure that the mother was still there.

Accompanied by the child's laughter, Fu Yan secretly thought about the development plan of the follow-up shop.

Among the four shops that can be changed in her hands, the incense powder shop, the cloth shop and the grocery store, she has not touched on them before, so she can put them away first.

Fu Yan thought about it, people's energy is limited, don't take too many steps, let's take it slowly one by one.

The business of lodging in the inn is not good, and if it is necessary to renovate the distinctive guest rooms, the project will cost a lot.Fu Yan tapped her fingers on the table and decided to cancel.

The restaurant has two floors, and she plans to concentrate on the catering business. The guest room on the second floor can be changed into a private room with better privacy.

As for what to do with food business.

She knows a lot of dishes and pastries, a comprehensive restaurant?A high-end private restaurant?Pastry shop?

Ideas flashed through Fu Yan's mind, and they were eliminated one by one.

Opening Fuqi Dessert to Yunjing will surely bring good business, but such a big restaurant always feels a bit wasteful.

As for opening restaurants, there is no shortage of restaurants with good taste in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Yunjing City.Fu Yan still hopes that her restaurant can make a name for itself through special features.

Hot pot is a new idea, but it is a pity that it is now spring, and this business will be affected in summer, and after Mr. Wang opened a restaurant in Shizhou City last year, this new way of eating has spread to Yunjing.

The businessman is shrewd. In the past winter, Fu Yan had already seen three or four imitated restaurants in Yunjing City, and had eaten there several times in Yongyi's mansion.

What else to try besides hot pot?

Fu Yan closed the account book, and decided to take a walk in Yunjing City first, to see what kinds of food there are.

So, in the next few days, Fu Yan went out early and returned late, and took Shi Yang Shiman to wander around the eastern and western cities.

In order to have a more comprehensive understanding of the level of her peers, Fu Yan often ate out for lunch and dinner.

Knowing her plan, Qi Tong didn't stop her, but sent two other guards to follow behind the three of them to protect them.

Fu Yan wanted to refuse.

Qi Tong pressed down her hand and said comfortingly: "People, you let them follow. It's usually fine, if there are those who don't have long eyes, they won't dirty your hands."

Fu Yan didn't want to reveal her identity, but there are many powerful people in Yunjing City, and there are many dandies who bully others.If someone who is not open-eyed really bumps into them, and someone protects them and reveals their identities, even the name of Duke Yongyi's mansion can scare most people away.

Fu Yan thought about Shi Yang's skill.At the beginning, he practiced a few moves with the martial arts master in the mansion. If he was about to do something, he might not be able to protect the three of them, so Fu Yan accepted the princess's kindness.

Qi Tong saw that she was busy, she was tired, but her spirit was much better than the previous few days, so she was happy to watch Fu Yan work in the shop.

Qi Tong hugged Nuonuo with a smile: "Don't worry about going out to do business, I'll take care of Nuonuo for you. Do you want me to send a message to the Yao family for them to come over?"

Ye Tianze and Xiao Jian go to study every day, the house is very clean, there is a little Nuonuo teasing and playing, Qi Tong feels that life is more interesting, so as not to always worry about Ye Zhuo's frontier fortress.

As for the Yao family, they are imperial merchants after all.They have many shops in Yunjing City and have a wide network of contacts.Qi Tong wanted to introduce Fu Yan to him, and having an acquaintance lead the way would facilitate the operation of the new business.

Fu Yan smiled gently and declined: "I don't have a clue yet, let me look at it first. If I really need someone to help me, I have to ask the princess to help me."

Fu Yan already had some arrangements in mind, so she didn't need to bother the Yao family.But she still appreciated the princess' kindness.

Qi Tong: "Okay, okay. Go ahead and try. If you have any questions, just come to me." It's just a small shop, and Qi Tong doesn't care about it, and the juniors are still tossing about it.

"Okay, Ah Yan thanked the princess first."

"We're all in the same family, so there's no need to talk about it. If you don't understand anything, you can also ask Butler Wu, he has a wealth of experience."

"Okay, with your words, I will have to bother Butler Wu. Miss Zhong, don't dislike me."

Mrs. Zhong stood beside Qi Tong and joked with a smile: "As long as Shi Yang is willing to cook two more meals for him, he is willing to do so. Madam Biao, please do whatever you want."

"Hahaha, that's great, I'll let A Yang cook some big dishes for Butler Wu tonight."

After getting acquainted with her in Qitong's yard for a few days, Nuonuo was finally able to play quietly away from Fu Yan, as long as she could see her mother at night.There was Granny Shi staying to take care of her, Fu Yan was relieved, while the child was not paying attention, she winked with Qi Tong and quietly backed out.

Shi Yang waited for her in the front yard, and Butler Wu was also talking with him with nothing to do.

Just in time, Fu Yan handed the blueprint in his hand to Butler Wu: "Uncle Wu, I have found someone to draw the blueprint of my new shop, and I need you to help me find someone for the redecoration. You order, Let Shi Yang make it for you at night and send it over."

"Oh, then I'm not welcome."
