Love after marriage with a husband

Seeing his happy appearance, Fang Zhongshan couldn't help but lower his head and sigh, feeling that he really raised a little glutton.

Jiang Ran was satisfied with the guarantee, and couldn't help but keep peeking at the hot pot table, Fang Zhongshan simply let go, and said to him: "Go and have a bite, after walking for half a day, I feel a little hungry. "

"Go over and eat some, or the little glutton in your stomach will scream again!"

Because of gluttony, Xiao Shuang'er was often teased by him, but she didn't feel much after listening to it too much. She walked to the table with a smile and asked the servant of Xie's family for wooden chopsticks.

Although it is the familiar taste of hot pot, but because of Xie's generous cooking, the table is full of all kinds of cooking ingredients, including some precious fruits and vegetables, which taste unique.

Holding the small plate in his hand, Jiang Ran patiently tasted one dish after another. Although he was greedy, his belly was not that big.

It didn't take long before I held my chubby belly and shouted for support.

The Xie family occupies a good location on the sixth floor, and the things displayed in the house are not only hot pots, but also delicious snacks and drinks that attract people's attention.

When their stomachs were full, Fang Zhongshan and Jiang Ran held hands with unsatisfied enthusiasm, and went to the checkout counter at the door to ask the price.

The small accountant sitting at the counter at the door looked weak and frail. With a gentle abacus, he compared a number with Fang Zhongshan, and said politely: "One customer is two taels of silver, and the two of you have a total of four taels of silver."

It was the first time for a guest who came to pay the bill to hear such a strange way of paying, and couldn't help frowning and asked, "Why do you pay two taels of silver?"

"There are diners with big appetites and those with small appetites. Isn't it unfair for you to settle accounts like this?"

The people behind echoed: "That's not true! If you encounter a big appetite that can eat Hesai nonsense, wouldn't your family still have to pay for it?"

The small accountant was neither angry nor angry, still smiling, and said in a good-tempered manner: "My son said that there are various ingredients for this hot pot. If we set prices one by one, wouldn't it be exhausting for the accountant to die? price."

"If someone really has a good appetite and can eat up this floor, our price will still be two taels of silver!"

When he said this, some new guests couldn't help but think secretly: even if they eat up the whole floor, it's still two taels of silver? !There are such good things!

"Could it be that the Xie family is looking down on our appetite? Just wait and see, don't be impatient when you lose your money!"

Most of the people who came here were strong and strong men, quite confident in their appetite. Originally, they just went upstairs for a walk, but now they felt inexplicably competitive, and all of them were gearing up to eat inside.

Seeing more and more guests, Fang Chongshan couldn't help sighing secretly from the bottom of his heart: Good guy!Xie Yu really has a business mind.

This so-called unified pricing is quite similar to the popular buffet in later generations, both in terms of model and business philosophy.

As the saying goes, you can make money with blood, but the business will never lose money. This saying is common in ancient and modern times.

Looking at the past, although there are many ingredients listed in the store, most of them are actually cheap vegetables and fruits. Even if you let go of your stomach to eat, it is only one or two taels of silver.

Attracting customers with gimmicks, arousing their desire to compare and take advantage, even if one or two big eaters come occasionally, Xie's family is sure to make money.

Jiang Ran couldn't see through the doorway, and smiled foolishly, tugging on Fang Zhongshan's sleeve with a worried expression on his face: "What should I do?"

"What if Xie and Big Brother are overwhelmed by them!"

Seeing his nervous appearance, Fang Zhongshan comforted him dumbfoundingly: "Don't worry, the Xie family has a lot of money, so I don't care about such a small amount of money!"

Xiao Shuang'er really took the few casual words seriously, nodded in a daze, and stopped asking questions.

Walking down the sixth floor, more than half of the time has been spent. The shopkeeper and the waiter who came together waited downstairs early in the morning. When Fang Zhongshan and Xiao Shuanger came out, they invited him aloud: "I heard that the palace has announced the list. If you have nothing else to do, why don’t you take a look at the wall?”

To raise the list wall, Fang Chongshan had heard the shopkeeper popularize science before, and whenever there was any major competition in the kilometer, the results would often be inscribed on the gold-colored paper, and the palace staff would write and paste it on the wall, and post the list for everyone to see.

Because it is portable, ordinary folks call the wall with stickers the wall with the stickers in an easy-to-understand way.

Fang Chongshan was somewhat curious in his heart, because it was hard to refuse the gracious invitation from the shopkeeper, so after a short hesitation, he agreed.

The tibang wall is at the foot of the imperial city, a side of the wall extending against the palace wall, it looks plain at first glance, and even looks a bit old because of the gold paper.

The palace people who proposed the list came early in the morning, and pasted two or three gold papers with ink characters on them. There were many people crowded in front of them. Fang Zhongshan led Jiang Ran and was pushed around. rush apart.

Apparently intimidated by the crowd, Fang Zhongshan and the shopkeepers crowded aside laughed at themselves, and said in a bit of surprise: "Forget it, I can't handle the excitement!"

After finishing speaking, he was about to lead Xiao Shuang'er back on the road, but the store manager persuaded him, "Wait a little longer! The person standing in front should pass the message to the back after a while."

His guess was indeed true, news came from inside very quickly, and each person passed a sentence, saying that it was the Xie family who won the championship in the palace this time.

"I really didn't expect that Xie Yu is not in the capital all year round, but he really has some skills." The shopkeeper heard the message and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

The passers-by who were also squeezed over heard it, and couldn't help opening their mouths to agree a few times, "Who says it's not!"

"The Xie family and the Ge family can be regarded as the most respectable imperial merchants in our city. They have always fought for the first and second, and the fight is to the death."

"It's said that Feng Shui turns around. The Xie Ge family has not been doing well in the past few years. Seeing that their status is not guaranteed, who knows that Xie Yu will suddenly appear."

"It's a pity that the Ge family didn't have such luck. I heard the news that the quality of the medicinal materials handed over by the Ge family this time is not very good, and the people inside are not happy. Maybe this time, even the emperor's merchants are not happy. Nothing to do!"

"Hey, it's bad luck to mention the Ge family. I bought some herbal medicines from his shop last time. Not to mention the poor quality, I also secretly cut corners. How can I be an imperial merchant?"

"If that's the case, then the Ge family won't be wronged."

Several people talked loudly, and the more they chatted, the more excited they became. Fang Zhongshan was not interested in these changes in power in the capital. After listening to a few words in general, he turned around and squeezed out with Jiang Ran.

It's fine if you don't turn around, but when you turn around, you find out that there is a big problem, and a little pair who is following closely beside you doesn't know when it disappeared.

Fang Chongshan was startled suddenly, Xiao Shuang'er was always obedient and obedient, even if they didn't hold hands and walked side by side when they went out, Jiang Ran was always used to reaching out and pinching his sleeve tightly and not relaxing.

Now being scattered in the crowd, Fang Zhongshan took advantage of his height and looked around anxiously, but he still couldn't find Jiang Ran.

"Perhaps he was pushed to the other side." Seeing that he was really anxious, the store manager couldn't help but comfort him, "When the crowd gradually dispersed, we'll find him."

Logically speaking, what the shopkeeper said is true, Xiao Shuang'er has already grown up, even if they are separated for a short moment, it is no big deal.

But for some reason, Fang Zhongshan's heart seemed to be blocked by a big rock out of thin air, and it hurt so badly.

Such an unexplained emptiness made people not think too much, Fang Zhongshan managed to calm himself down, knowing that it would be useless to walk around at this time, he simply followed the advice of the shopkeeper, and stayed where he was, not daring to move.

Waiting until the sky was getting dark, Fang Chongshan felt anxious and unbearable, the crowd dispersed in twos and threes, and the shopkeeper kindly stayed to help find someone.

I called Jiang Ran's name several times back and forth, but failed to get a response. The shopkeeper had a flash of inspiration, slapped his legs and said, "Maybe he went back to the inn."

"How about we look back along the way we came here, he is such a big man, he won't be lost."

Even if you feel anxious in your heart, this is the only way to do it right now, Fang Zhongshan.He hurriedly walked back the same way until he walked to the inn, and asked the shop assistants who had already returned, but no one saw Jiang Ran.

Fang Chongshan panicked suddenly. Seeing that it was getting dark, Jiang Ran was the best at finding the way. Even if the two of them staggered, they would definitely follow the old way back to the inn. What a surprise.

Even the shopkeeper who didn't care about it before became a little worried. Where can I find someone in a while?

Fang Chongshan thought about it, and opened his mouth and said: "How about I go to the government to report to the official? Someone from the yamen will come forward to help find it, maybe I can find it faster."

"I'm afraid the government won't take care of this matter." The shopkeeper pondered for a moment, then shook his head and refused, "It's been less than half a day since we left, I'm afraid you won't be able to call the yamen."

Thinking of Fang Chongshan's friendship with Ge Caishen and Xie Yu, the shopkeeper suggested: "In my opinion, you might as well ask Ge Caishen or Xie Yu, these two are well-known figures in the villagers, and their connections I don’t know how much, you go over there and ask for news, maybe you can find out one, two, three.”

After thinking about it, that's all there is to it.

Fang Chongshan didn't trust Ge Caishen, so he decided to hire a carriage and rush to Xie's mansion without thinking for a long time.

Fortunately, the street where Xie's mansion is located is quite famous in the capital, so I explained a few words to the coachman, drove the car in a hurry, and arrived at the place soon.

The sun hanging in the sky has not yet completely set, but paper lanterns have been lit up in twos and threes at the mouths of the Xie Mansion, the gatekeeper at the gate recognized Fang Chongshan, saw him hurriedly looking for him, and hurried forward to ask Xun.

"The little butler is still thinking about you before dinner!" The little doorman greeted attentively, "Who knew you were here now!"

How could Fang Chongshan be in the mood to greet him, and he roared anxiously: "Is your little steward here? I have something important to see him!"

The little doorman was startled by him, and immediately restrained his smile, and said shortly: "The little steward has already ordered me to come down, saying that you don't need to notify him if you want to see him."

After finishing speaking, he whispered again: "You follow me, and I will take you there."

The Xie Mansion's house is extremely large, with winding corridors that can't be seen at a glance. Fang Zhongshan was worried about something, and while following the doorman, he cursed secretly, thinking that the journey was too long.

Led by the little doorman to a remote house, Fang Zhongshan hurriedly went up to knock on the door, and it was indeed the familiar voice of Xie Yu who agreed.

The little door boy stood outside the door and shouted inside: "Little steward, Mr. Fang Chongshan is here to see you!"

Previously, Xie Yu entrusted someone to deliver the letter, but it was returned. Xie Yu thought that he would not see Fang Zhongshan for a while, but who knew that the championship competition was not over yet, Fang Zhongshan came to find it by himself.

Xie Yu thought that Fang Chongshan had repented, and wanted to come to ask for the token in person. He couldn't help but feel complacent. He wanted to take Joe, so he came over slowly and opened the door on purpose.

As soon as the two met, before Xie Yu had time to say something teasing, Fang Chongshan had already said a lot.

It was the first time Xie Yu saw him lose his composure, so he was a little surprised. After listening patiently, it took him a long time to figure it out. It turned out that Jiang Ran had disappeared.

"Just looking at the list wall, did the person disappear?" Xie Yu sensitively grasped the point, "The shopkeeper is right, how could the grown-up little Shuang'er get lost?"

"perhaps……"

He hesitated in the middle of the sentence, and he hesitated to continue. Fang Zhongshan listened impatiently, and couldn't help asking: "Maybe what?"

"You said it!"

If you really care about it, you will be chaotic!

Xie Yu secretly sighed in his heart, knowing that Fang Chongshan might be going crazy, he couldn't bear to say: "Maybe he was taken away."

"I've only been in the capital for a few days, so I won't attack a little Shuang'er for no reason..." Fang Zhongshan stopped abruptly in the middle of speaking.

Although they had only been in the capital for a few days, they really offended someone. Fang Zhongshan gritted his teeth and read the word Ge Cai several times.

Ge Caishen is not a character to get along with, and Fang Chongshan knows it all too well. In the past few days, he deliberately took Jiang Ran to hide in the inn, and when he seldom went out, he was afraid of revenge.

Thinking that today is the championship match, all merchants are concentrating on preparing their own affairs, and Ge Caishen is no exception. He probably won't spare extra thoughts to deal with himself, so Fang Chongshan took Jiang Ran out to relax.

Who would have thought that such a terrible thing would happen.

Xie Yuwen comforted: "This is just my guess, don't worry about Chongshan, just ask the servants to inquire about it."

As a big business family in the capital, the Xie family also planted a lot of eyeliners in the market, one is to inquire about business news, and the other is to investigate the people's sentiments in the market.

Among the eyeliners, there are many people with excellent eyesight. If you ask them, you may be able to know something.

At this time, Fang Zhongshan calmed down instead. Now that he had some guesses about Xiao Shuang'er's whereabouts, he gradually settled down a bit.

If Ge Caishen really asked someone to take Jiang Ran away, then he just wanted to take Xiao Shuang'er as a threat. In this case, Jiang Ran must be safe at this moment.

All that can be done right now is to wait for Xie Mansion's eyeliner to reply and get in touch with Ge Caishen.

Fang Chongshan comforted himself over and over again.

Xie Yu saw that he was really uncomfortable, so he took the initiative to take the matter down with a sense of loyalty, and asked wave after wave of informants, but unfortunately there was no useful news.

The heart that was full of hope gradually cooled down, Fang Zhongshan sighed, finally couldn't help standing up, and said in a deep voice: "I will go to find Ge Caishen myself."

He no longer wanted to waste time in meaningless waiting and asking, so he might as well take the initiative and ask God of Wealth.

Xie Yu saw that his attitude was really firm, knowing that no matter how hard he tried to persuade him, it would be of no use, so he simply called the groom to the house.

It was the groom who sent Fang Zhongshan and Jiang Ran to the inn last time.

The groom is a very hearty and enthusiastic man. When he heard that Xiao Shuang'er was lost, he immediately slapped his chest loudly: "I know the way to Ge's house very well. Don't worry, I'll take you there right away." .”

When I got into the carriage, the sun, which was still bright, gradually sank. Fortunately, there were lights on both sides of the long street, and the road looked bright.

According to the rules of Da'an Kingdom, horse-drawn carriages are not allowed to run wildly on the streets of the capital at night. Even if Fang Zhongshan and others are anxious, the groom can only push forward as much as possible.

The carriage was not going fast, but by coincidence, some unlucky ghost bumped into the front of the carriage.

The young man who looked like a servant didn't know why he was in a hurry, so he closed his eyes and rushed forward, straight towards the carriage.

The groom shook the reins in a hurry, although he avoided the tall horse, the young man still bumped into a corner of the carriage frame, screamed in pain, rubbed his arms and cursed.

"Who doesn't have eyes? Driving a carriage at such a late night?!"

Looking at the light from the paper lanterns on both sides of the street, seeing the exquisite carvings of the carriage, and realizing that the people on the carriage must be either rich or noble, they immediately silenced.

When the groom was in a bad mood, he replied unceremoniously: "Which one of our Da'an states all say that driving at night is not allowed?"

"It's obvious that you didn't follow the rules and rushed straight to the center of the road, and then bumped into me, why did you beat me instead?!"

Hearing the quarrel between the two, Fang Chongshan couldn't help pushing open a car window, frowning and asking, "What's going on?"

"Go ahead, don't waste any more time."

The groom of Xie's family immediately responded, and I was about to open my mouth to drive the horse forward, but the young man still entangled him persistently.

Holding on to the corner of the wooden window, Fang Zhongshan was about to drive away people, when he suddenly heard him howl violently.

"Are you staying at Fang Zhongshan in the Kelai Inn? My master wants me to send you a message!"
