Chapter 132 Zhao 2 Sends a Letter

Looking at the small package in the hands of the Second Young Master Zhao, Qing Mo felt very jealous and had no time to care about his brother or sister.

The second young master Zhao could see that his elder sister Qingmo was unhappy about Yang Mei being close to him.

But he has always been good-tempered and doesn't care.

He smiled, shook Yang Mo's hand, and handed the package containing the letter directly to Qing Mo.

Of course the eldest sister has to curry favor with him.

Yang Mo's hand missed and he was very unhappy.

Without retracting his raised hand, he turned around and grabbed Zhao Shouzhong's collar.

Qing Mo took the package, and before the joy on his face fully appeared, he saw this scene.

When did my sister become so close to this noble young man?

Her face darkened visibly.

He angrily said, “Sister Yang, let go, there are no rules.”

Yang Mo stuck out her tongue, loosened her hand, and stepped back a few steps with a smile, which showed that she was not afraid of her elder sister.

Qing Mo bowed to Zhao Shouzhong and thanked him, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for delivering the letter for us."

In the past, it was Zheng’s Pharmacy that delivered the letter. I don’t know why it was this young master who delivered it this time.

Zhao Shouzhong seemed to know the doubts in her heart and hurriedly explained:

"It's like this. This letter was originally meant to be sent to Zheng's pharmacy. I happened to visit my aunt's house and met her. I asked her a question and thought to myself, I have nothing else to do, so I made this trip.

It's much faster for me to ride a fast horse here than to have the medicine change hands many times in the pharmacy and have to come and go during the time it takes to deliver and collect the medicine before I can deliver the letter.

I thought that if I could let the benefactor's family see the letter earlier, it would be considered as doing my part for my sister and repaying her debt a little bit."

He was being too polite.

Zhou Yue heard all this as soon as he entered the room. He smiled but said nothing, nor did he expose his true feelings.

Who hasn’t been young? Who hasn’t admired youth?

"Second Master Zhao, I've already said that you've given me enough.

Saving your sister was something we could do easily, and it is also a basic human principle. Besides, the success was not just the work of my family.

This matter should have been exposed long ago. Don't take it to heart and don't mention it again."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shouzhong bowed again and said, "My younger sister was rescued, and the elders in my family should have come to express their gratitude in person.

But my family's situation is special, my parents and elder brother cannot leave Beijing, so they can only send me to do this, which is rude.

We would feel even more ashamed if we could not give more money.

Although my family has fallen on hard times, the rules and etiquette of our ancestors cannot be abandoned."

Seeing that Zhao Shouzhong was getting more and more exaggerated, if he continued, who knows what shocking words he would say.

Zhou Yue quickly interrupted him and changed the subject.

"Second Master Zhao, besides delivering the letter, do you have anything else to do this time?"

Zhao Shouzhong patted his head and said, "Look at my memory, Aunt Zhou, I have something to ask of you."

"Mr. Zhao, you are too polite. If you have anything to say, just tell me. I will do my best."

"Auntie said I was polite. Don't call me Mr. Zhao anymore. Just call me by my name."

Zhao Shouzhong said seriously.

Seeing that he was sincere, Zhou Yue had no choice but to agree: "Okay, Shouzhong, go ahead."

"It's not difficult. It's just the return gift that Auntie gave us last time, which was a wild boar, some medicinal herbs, and a few jars of wine.

My father likes to drink. Ever since... ahem, he has been addicted to drinking.

Although he likes to drink, his alcohol tolerance is average.

He used to get drunk all the time, which was not good for his health.

This time he drank the wine brewed by the aunt and found it delicious. It did not make him drunk. Even if he drank too much, he would not have a headache when he woke up after a hangover.

He liked it very much, so my mother suggested that we buy some more for father to drink.

Instead of letting him drink those messy drinks, it’s better to let him drink the wine from Auntie’s house.”

"Well, this is easy to do. Tell Qing Mo to get two jars of each type of wine."

"Well, Auntie, if it was two jars of wine, I wouldn't have mentioned it specifically.

What my mother means is that my family should have as much as your family has.

My eldest brother will hold a coming-of-age ceremony after the New Year, and then he will look for a wife and hold a banquet...

All of these require wine.

My mother said that it is better to buy wine from my aunt than from other brands.

You think so? "

It turned out that a big business deal was delivered.

This is great news! This is an important customer and we need to treat him well.

Zhou Yue hurriedly invited Zhao Shouzhong into the inner courtyard, and several people sat in the small hall in the inner courtyard to discuss matters.

Zhou Yue definitely doesn’t have enough stock of the wine that Zhao Shouzhong wants.

Fortunately, most of them will be used after the New Year, so they are not so urgent.

There's still time to brew.

Zhou Yue looked at the purchase list that Zhao Shouzhong brought out, and calculated how much food was needed.

Then Qing Mo calculated how much deposit the other party needed to pay and how long it would take to pick up the wine.

Soon the two parties drafted a contract, wrote it down in clear ink, and made two copies.

Zhao Shouzhong read it, signed it, took out his seal and stamped it.

Qing Mo also signed and stamped the shop's official seal.

This deal has been preliminarily concluded, and it will depend on whether the delivery goes smoothly in the future.

Zhao Shouzhong called in his followers, handed over the silver bills, and was about to leave.

Several people stood at the door of the shop, watching the clerk load the carriage with the wine he was taking away for his father.

Zhao Shouzhong politely declined Zhou Yue's offer to keep him for dinner, saying, "I have something else to do, so I won't have dinner this time."

Yang Mo followed out from the inner courtyard with a wooden object in his hand. Upon hearing this, he said:

"Brother Shouzhong, this is a gift from me to you. Thank you for the ship model you gave me last time."

Zhao Shouzhong's eyes lit up and he asked, "What is this?"

“It was the first time you came to my house and saw the model of the water mill in the yard.

I made this according to the ratio of thirty to one and gave it to you. Take it back and take a look. See if there is anything that needs improvement. "

This kid, if he wants to give a gift, then just give it. Why add any conditions?

Zhao Shouzhong was very happy. He took the wooden model with joy and looked at it from left to right.

His follower wanted to take it and help him hold it, but he glared at the follower and insisted on holding it himself, refusing to let anyone else do it.

Yang Mo was very happy to see that he cherished it.

Zhou Yue coughed lightly and said, "Where are you going in such a hurry?"

"Oh, oh, ahem... In addition to delivering the letter and ordering wine, the saint also asked me to go to Liangcang Town again to look for Mr. Cui."

When Zhou Yue heard about this matter, he didn't dare to say another word, for fear of accidentally revealing Master Cui's whereabouts.

"Well, Shouzhong, even if you are in a hurry to find someone, there is no need to rush now. It is better to eat first."

Zhou Yue thought that he could delay it for a while and ask someone to send a letter to Master Cui, asking them to be careful in the next few days.

Because today was market day, Zhou Yue was afraid that several people from the mountains would go out to the market to buy things and be caught by Zhao Shouzhong.

"Brother Shouzhong, we are having mutton hotpot today. You can stay and have dinner before leaving."

Yang Mo didn't know what her mother was planning, but she always followed Zhou Yue's lead. Since her mother wanted to keep the Second Young Master Zhao, she must have her reasons.
