Chapter 272 Is the atmosphere (1 more)
"Mother, misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!" Chu Chu immediately explained.

Liu Shi smiled and glanced at Chu Chu, "Mother knows, mother knows, but although your wedding date has been fixed, you still have to be careful."

Chu Chu couldn't laugh or cry, "No, you don't know, you really don't know."

Mrs. Liu gave her a reproachful look, "Mother is from here, so you don't have to be shy, Mother understands."

Chu Chu wanted to cry but had no tears, "Mother, Ye Yixiao is injured, I just want to give him medicine."

"Where's the medicine? Why didn't I see it?" Liu looked around and asked suspiciously.

neat:"……"

She just wanted to see the scars, but it was a bit embarrassing to say so, so she changed the way of saying that it was medicine, but there was no medicine in her hand.

"Oh, mother said it all, mother understands, you clean it up, your father is still staring at you below, don't pamper her too much, Chuchu just likes to make trouble."

Liu Shi gave an expression that I really understood everything, then closed the door and went downstairs directly.

Chu Chu didn't know what to say anymore, "Where do you think I'm going to complain?"

Ye Yixiao hooked his lips and smiled slightly, "Shall I explain it for you?"

Chu Chu glared at him reproachfully, "It's all your fault! If you didn't keep showing me, how could you be misunderstood by mother?"

"You're right, it's all my fault! It's all my fault!" Ye Yixiao nodded in response, his words full of connivance.

Chu Chu was a little embarrassed, feeling that she was being a mess and being unreasonable, so she quickly said, "That's not what I meant."

Ye Yixiao smiled more gently, "I understand. Do you still want to watch?"

"Look!" Chu Chu blushed a little at the sight of him, but she still insisted.

Ye Yixiao got up, turned his back to him, took off his coat, and there were disordered welts on his back. Although the medicine had been applied, the wound was still red and swollen.

Chu Chu stretched out her hand, gently brushed the red and swollen scars with her fingertips, and frowned, "Are you stupid? Where did you hit yourself? Are you out of your mind? Punish yourself so cruelly, you let me say What are you doing?"

"Distressed?" Ye Yixiao said with a smile, and there was surprise in his gentleness.

"Ah."

Chuchu didn't refute this time, she was not a coy person, although she sometimes felt shy and embarrassed when facing the person she liked, but most of the time, she didn't lack the courage to express her feelings.

"Don't do this next time." Chu Chu said in a low voice.

The soft fingertips touched the slightly painful wound, and the original pain was replaced by a slight itchiness, as if a feather had glided gently, and it became more and more itchy.

"No more." Ye Yixiao comforted softly.

This kind of thing will not happen again, and he will naturally not be punished again.

But in Chu Chu's ears, it was that he would not punish himself, "Even if you want to punish, you have to punish others, and you will also be punished yourself. Do you think you are stupid?"

Ye Yixiao didn't explain, just nodded with a smile, as long as he understands these things.

In the hall downstairs, Chu Dazhuang, Luo Zheng, and Luo An were sitting and drinking tea.

"The shopkeeper is too much, no matter what, I can't just dismiss you like this! You have been an apprentice in the shop since you were a child, and you have always been affectionate for so many years. How can the shopkeeper dismiss you because of a new master? "

Chu Dazhuang was very angry and complained for Luo An.

"It's not the opposite. Master Lu is a master specially invited from Andong City by the shopkeeper. He can indeed make a lot of new tricks that people don't know. The guests like it very much. Over time, the shopkeeper's Rely on him more."

Luo An sighed helplessly, "Master Lu has an independent nature, and they say that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. I am an old man in the shop, and it is good to be happy with other craftsmen. I also attracted a lot of business for the shop because of Ms. Zhang from the General's Mansion. Now, Master Lu Can't tolerate me, before me and Master Lu, of course the shopkeeper wouldn't choose me."

"Since you want to learn sculpture, then learn it. You, Uncle Chu, don't know much. However, you have secretly learned a lot in the carving workshop of the Chu family over the years. As long as you want to learn, I will teach you everything, but , now learning this, it is difficult to find a suitable job to do."

Chu Dazhuang reminded.

"That's what I said, but if I learn more things, I will finally have a skill. When I finish my studies, if I don't find a suitable job in the town for the last week, then I will go to Andong City. Going to a bigger place, I heard that there are many book workshops and carving workshops in the capital and Jiangnan area, and I can find a job to survive."

Roan said.

"Ambition!" Chu Dazhuang said with a smile.

"If it's really just to support the family, there's no need to be so troublesome." Chu Chu walked down the stairs, with a smile on her lips, straightforward and free, full of confidence, and instantly became the focus of the hall.

Uncle Luo said with a smile, "Chuchu, you usually have a lot of ghost ideas, what good ideas do you have?"

"Uncle Luo, you can praise me for being smart. It's clearly a human being's idea, so why did it become a ghost idea?" Chu Chu joked seriously, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively.

"Okay, okay, you're the smartest." Uncle Luo smiled happily. After getting along with Chuchu for a long time, plus the relationship between the two families, Chuchu is just like his daughter.

Luo An was a little surprised. His father was not a kind-hearted person. He seldom smiled in normal times, unless he was so kind to a stranger when he was facing his family. This was the first time he saw him.

"I know Brother Luo's craftsmanship. It's very good. The desk in the study was made by Brother Luo himself. I like it very much." Chu Chu said.

When the word Luo Ge was mentioned, Ye Yixiao beside him couldn't help but frowned slightly, and his eyes immediately fixed on Luo An. He was not as handsome as me, as tall as me, as talented as me, and as tall as me. Qian, um, Chuchu shouldn't be able to empathize with others.

Luo An, who was suddenly on the top, felt hairy all over his body, as if he was being targeted by some ferocious beast, it was too scary.

"It's useless to have good craftsmanship. Now the guests like fresh styles." Luo An was very helpless.

"Master Lu traveled abroad when he was young, and he had a wide range of knowledge. He served as an apprentice in many places. Later, he returned to Andong City and also made furniture, but he had more tricks than other craftsmen. The guests also liked him the most. The shopkeeper I also like him the most, now that he is back in our town, how can I compare to him?"

"Brother Luo, you can't underestimate yourself. Your craftsmanship is very good, much better than that of Master Lu. Moreover, the craftsmanship is very fine. These two points are very important. As for the style problem, this is the best solution. .”

Chu Chu said seriously.

"How to say?" Roan trembled slightly in despair, as if he saw hope.

"No matter how good the style is, no matter how novel it is, if there is no good craftsmanship to display such a novel style, it is just a defective product. If Brother Luo can guarantee that he will always maintain this fine heart, no matter when he makes it Everything is finely polished, and we can work together.”

Chu Chu looked at him with a smile, and said her purpose.

"Cooperation? You want to open a furniture shop?" Roan was shocked.

Chu Chu shook her head, "It's not me, but you."

Luo An couldn't help but smiled wryly, "It's my greatest wish to open my own shop, but the shop needs to be rented, the artisans need to be hired, and the timber is all in silver. If I really have the capital, I'll soon Just start a family."

"My father paid the capital, and my father is also a very good craftsman. The two of you can cooperate completely. As for the style, I can draw it for you. When the time comes, you can just follow it and make it."

Chu Chu said.

Then all the people in the hall were stunned. Everyone looked at Chu Chu, and they were shocked to solve such a big problem in such an understatement. Isn't it too easy?
"Why did I pay the money? I don't have any money! I've been at home for more than half a year, and I haven't worked. Where did I get the money?" Chu Dazhuang was the first to ask.

"Ask mother for money, mother has money." Chu Chu said.

Chu Dazhuang looked at Liu Shi in surprise, "Where did you get the money? Why don't I know?"

Liu's forehead, such a simple question, why can't her husband's mind turn away! "Chu Chu gave it."

Chu Dazhuang frowned, "This is all your hard earned money, how can Dad use your money? No way! Besides, it takes a lot to open a shop. What if you lose money? Isn't it going to be a waste of money?" ?”

Chu Chu looked at Luo An, "How much do you think it will cost to open a decent furniture store?"

"Counting the rent of the shop, it will cost 50 taels!" Luo An said.

"It's only 50 taels, Dad, just treat me as my filial piety to you. Your daughter can afford this loss! Moreover, with the craftsmanship of Dad and Brother Luo, and my blueprints, it will definitely be a profitable business! When the time comes When the shop makes money, father will give the money to mother, wouldn't that be all right?"

Chu Chu persuaded.

Chu Dazhuang was still frowning. In fact, ever since his leg healed completely, he was thinking, go out and find a job. He is not old yet, he still has strength, and he can earn money. How can he just wait now? At home, relying on your daughter to support you?

Besides, it's not easy for her daughter to make money, and Chu Hong is going to take the imperial examination, and there will be more places to spend money in the future. He doesn't want such a big pressure to fall on Chu Chu alone, so he has been calculating this matter all the time. matter.

However, there has been no suitable opportunity to go out.

He is tempted to cooperate with Luo An to open a furniture shop, at least he can make some money, but he is not so happy when he thinks that his daughter will still have to pay for the capital.

Seeing Chu Dazhuang's hesitation, Chu Chu winked at Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu immediately took it up, "I think what Chu Chu said is very reasonable. When this shop is opened, it will make a steady profit without losing money. Don't have too much burden. Moreover, we are Chu Chu's parents, we are all a family, there is no need to It's so clear."

"That's right, children should of course honor their parents. This is a matter of course. Daddy, you think too much. Besides, it's not a monstrous sum of money, it's just 50 taels."

Chu Chu also joined the persuasion army.

Finally, Chu Dazhuang patted his thigh and made a decision, "Alright then! Luo An, how about working with your uncle?"

Luo An was still in shock and didn't come to his senses. Opening a shop is not a trivial matter. Isn't it a bit too hasty to make a decision like this in a few words?This is 50 taels of silver!

It can make ordinary people live for seven or eight years!

"Uncle Chu, do you want to think about it again?" Luo An reminded.

"Didn't you already think about it just now?" Chu Dazhuang was puzzled.

The corner of Roan's mouth twitched, did he think about it just now?Then consider having a cup of tea?Uncle Chu, are you sure you're not joking?

"Father, Brother Luo said that he needs to think about it, not you." Chu Chu explained.

Chu Dazhuang suddenly realized, "Then you think about it now."

Luo An couldn't laugh or cry, how could such a serious matter be decided in the eyes of this father and daughter without any hesitation?

As soon as he became Luo Zheng, seeing the decisiveness of the two people on the opposite side, and looking at his son's look forward and backward, he slapped Luo An on the back, "I said you are still a man? How can you be a mother-in-law? Even one Worse than a girl doll?"

Luo An looked at Chu Chu, wanting to cry, dad, is it really my dad?Can I compare with Chu Chu?Just ask the whole town, which man can compare to this?
"Uncle Luo, don't rush Brother Luo, this is indeed a big matter, and it needs to be carefully considered. Brother Luo is right to be so cautious. The necessary quality of a shopkeeper is not to rush, not hasty, and cautious when encountering things. Do things so that there will be no trouble."

Chu Chu looked at Luo An with a smile, like a cunning fox.

"So, you still want me to be the shopkeeper?" Roan asked in shock.

Chu Chu nodded, "You are very suitable, or do you want my father to be the shopkeeper? The shopkeeper is very hard, it takes a lot of hard work and hurts the body, look at my father is so old, you have the heart to bully my father Is this an old man?"

Luo An was speechless, why didn't he think that Uncle Chu was old!Is such serious nonsense really okay?

"Chu Chu has already talked about this point. If you are still hesitant, you brat, then you are really inferior to a woman. You don't even have the courage!" Luo Zheng continued to dislike his son.

Chu Chu looked at Luo An sympathetically, being so tricked by her own father, are you sure you didn't pick it up from the roadside?
"Even if I agree, it's not so easy to open a shop. First of all, the location of the shop is a problem." Luo An was obviously well prepared for this question. It seemed that he really wanted to own a shop. Very thorough understanding of these things.

"The place of the furniture store must not be too small, otherwise there will be no way to display our objects, and the location must not be too remote, otherwise, it will not attract customers. However, the rents of those places with good locations in the town are very expensive, a little far away One point, there will not be so many customers.”

The hall fell silent in an instant. Of course, Chu Chu would not ignore this question, but she didn't know much about the rent in the town, so she couldn't say anything now.

"If it's this problem, it's easy to solve, and Chuchu can handle it by herself." Ye Yixiao said after being quiet for a long time.

Chu Chu raised her eyebrows slightly, with a smile in her eyes, "I didn't expect you to have such confidence in me? Just because of your trust in me, this matter is on me, and I will find a position that you are satisfied with."

Ye Yixiao suppressed a smile, "You don't have a ready-made shop, can you just take it out and use it?"

Chu Chu widened her eyes in shock, pointed at herself, and looked at him in surprise, "Me? Is there a ready-made shop? How come I don't know when it happened?"

"Didn't you even read my dowry?" Ye Yixiao was also shocked.

Chu Chu felt a little guilty, "Who told you to come up with 180 dowry all at once? If I really look at everything, I guess I'll have to wait until next year."

"So, blame me?"

Oops, the thousand-faced fox is going to explode!Chu Chu immediately gave him a bright smile, "I don't blame you, I don't blame you, although I haven't looked through each box, but they are all in my private vault, and the keys are still here, I have kept them well. "

Seeing her fawning smile, Ye Yixiao was helpless. Did she think he really didn't know that there was only a warehouse in this house, and there was no such thing as a private warehouse?

"There are several shops in the betrothal gift, you can choose one with a suitable location, just decorate it, and then it will be ready for use." Ye Yixiao said.

The father and son of the Luo family looked at each other. Such a big deal was really unheard of and unseen. There is even a shop for the dowry gift. Young Master Ye is really rich and powerful!

"If that's the case, then it's fine for Uncle Chu to take care of me as the shopkeeper. I didn't pay any money, and even the shop belongs to your family. I want to partner with you again, so I can't help you much."

Roan said, with a very serious attitude.

"That's right, let this kid be a shopkeeper or something, it's already found a way out for him!" Luo Zheng agreed with this proposal very much, without any objection.

"How can this work? If we say we want to open it together, then let's open it together. Besides, although we provide the money, the place, and the blueprints, Brother Luo still needs to do the running of the shop."

Chu Chu explained.

"Brother Luo has been in this business for so many years, so he must know a lot of craftsmen. Brother Luo must recruit these people, and the guests also need Brother Luo to take care of entering the shop. These are very important things, and my father will definitely not be able to do them. Come."

"We can divide it into threes and sevens." Chuchu directly entered the stage of dividing from persuasion.

Luo An waved his hands again and again, "No, no, no, I can't provide anything. How can I get so much? I can do it with one."

"Twenty-eight, Brother Luo, don't refuse any more. My father is in the shop and needs more care from Brother Luo. This is what Brother Luo deserves with his own ability. If Brother Luo feels that he owes something, then let me Father should do less work, so don't make him tired."

Chu Chu said.

After talking about this, Luo An didn't continue to refuse, but he knew in his heart that Chu Chu was already taking good care of him.

Otherwise, how can there be such a good thing, just take care of the shop, and you can get [-]% of the profit?
But at the beginning, their family helped Chu Chu with some small favors, Chu Chu has been remembering it until now, and gave him such a big advantage, Luo An felt a surge of excitement in his heart. Definitely will pay her back.

"Chuchu, don't worry, I will definitely take care of the shop and make a lot of money!" Luo An said confidently.

"Of course I believe in Brother Luo's ability." Chu Chu recalled smiling.

The first thing that was so big was settled in just a few sentences. When Luo An left Chu's house, he was in a daze for a while, and then he was full of energy and began to contact his former workers to recruit troops for the shop.

Here, Chu Dazhuang also had a goal to work hard for, and his whole spirit was different. He got into the warehouse and began to pack his usual carpenter's tools.

And Chuchu also wanted to start preparations, but she made the blueprints, and the styles must be clearly drawn before the craftsmen can make them.

However, as soon as she picked up the brush, the brush in her hand was taken away.

Chu Chu looked at Ye Yixiao in surprise, "You don't want me to help you open a shop?"

Ye Yixiao was helpless, "Where did you come to this conclusion?"

"Then why did you take my pen away?" Chu Chu asked.

"Please look down at your gauze-bound paws. Do you think you can do such a difficult action as drawing?" Ye Yixiao asked.

The corner of Chuchu's mouth twitched, and she shook her right hand, "I forgot about this, so what should I do now?"

"Ye Yixiao sat on the chair behind the desk and said helplessly, "What else can I do?Same as before, you tell me to draw! "

"Thank you for the ghostwriting, I am very grateful." Chu Chu clasped her fists in both hands, and said immediately, her bright eyes narrowed, extremely cute.

Ye Yixiao frowned, "How come there is a feeling of being fooled."

"Didn't you already have the idea of ​​asking me to write for you, and it was all on purpose?"

Chu Chu's smile became brighter. She walked to the window, drank tea and ate cakes with the breeze blowing, and began her detailed description.

Ye Yixiao just spoiled and smiled, Mrs. Er is too smart, what should I do?
