Chapter 880: How about a double happiness?
Shen Xing thought about it and thought that no matter what the reason was, Master Song had already shown his dissatisfaction, so he couldn't just pretend to be dead, right?
Whether it is because of the young master or for the five taels of silver, I have to ask.
In fact, the main reason was that Shen Xing felt that Song Li was not the kind of person who would make trouble out of nothing, otherwise, let alone five taels of silver, Shen Xing would not accept even fifty taels of silver.
After all, no one would want the hot money.
Just as Shen Xing was thinking about how to start, Song Li sighed.
"It's not that the food your cook cooks doesn't taste good, it's just that I'm used to Mingxia's cooking. Now when I eat food made by others, I always feel that the taste is a little bit worse. Forget it, I'll just wait for your young lady to come back. I guess it will be soon, right?" Song Li put down his chopsticks and said with a smile.
The restaurant was about to close at this time. If Li Mingxia just went out to buy some things or do something insignificant, he should be back soon.
Shen Xing didn't know that Song Li was testing him, because there was something Song Li said that made a lot of sense: if you eat the food cooked by your own lady frequently, you won't be able to eat the food cooked by others.
Take Shen Xing himself for example. As a servant, it is impossible for him to eat food made by Li Mingxia every day. Eating it every now and then is already very good. But even so, every time he thinks of it, he feels that the food made by others is bland, let alone Master Song?
"Mr. Song is absolutely right, but it is really unfortunate today. Our young lady has already left and asked me to look after the restaurant here. The young lady will not come until tomorrow morning." Shen Xing said to Song Li.
Song Li looked at the food in front of him and found it even harder to swallow.
"gone?"
"Yes, I'm leaving." Shen Xing nodded with certainty, "It's a happy event to say the least."
Shen Xing felt that Song Li and his son were classmates, and his son would definitely not hide this matter from Song Li, so he told Song Li about it.
"What good news?" Song Li frowned and stared at Shen Xing.
Shen Xing was completely unaware, and he picked up the teapot on the table and poured Song Li another cup of flower and fruit tea, "It's a happy event for our eldest son."
Song Li was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Li Zhengde had indeed told him about this matter some time ago! The dark clouds in his heart instantly dissipated!
It turns out that Mingxia has been so busy these days not because of some so-called friends, but because her eldest brother is getting married soon!
"Our eldest son is getting married in five days. This is the most important thing in our family right now. My young lady will probably be very busy these days." The joy on Shen Xing's face was genuine when he talked about this.
The eldest son of his family is indeed a very good person. He treats servants in a friendly and polite manner and never makes things difficult for them. Moreover, this is the first big happy event in their family. Who wouldn't be happy?
Song Li smiled and said, "It is indeed a happy event. This is my fault. Zhengde told me about this, but I forgot about it. If Mingxia knew that I didn't take it to heart, I'm afraid she would blame me."
Shen Xing just smiled but didn't respond. He should say what he should say about his masters' affairs and not say what he shouldn't say.
"Forget it, then I won't eat today. I'll come again tomorrow. I'm leaving first." Song Li drank the tea in the cup, then got up and left.
Looking at the almost untouched food on the table, Shen Xing thought he could have a snack tonight.
However, my sister and I couldn't eat there. I promised my sister that I would take her out to eat whatever she wanted, and I couldn't break my promise.
only--
Shen Xing lifted the teapot in his hand. It was so light that there was not much tea left in the full pot.
Drink it all?
In fact, he knew that Song Li liked the young lady, but to be honest, Shen Xing felt in his heart that this was impossible. No matter how good and wealthy Song Li's family was in the eyes of others, Shen Xing felt in his heart that Song Li was not worthy of his young lady.
Li Mingxia was eager to go home in the carriage. She had never been so eager to get home as she was today.
"Oh, sister, you've looked outside more than a dozen times in such a short while. There's only a little warmth in the carriage, but you lifted the curtain to let out. Fortunately, it's warm today, otherwise Mingyu and I would have frozen to death before we got home." Li Zhengde couldn't help laughing as he looked at his sister who was fidgeting.
"Sister Mingxia, don't be anxious. My Third Aunt must be aware of this matter. Besides, there are still five days left. Many families in the village start making preparations the day before, so they all have time." Li Mingyu also said so.
Li Mingxia automatically ignored what Li Zhengde said, but what Li Mingyu said made sense.
That's right, I was so busy that I forgot about it, but it's impossible that mom didn't know anything about my eldest brother's affairs. I guess there's still time, otherwise mom would have told me to get busy a long time ago.
Thinking of this, Li Mingxia felt a little relieved.
"You are still making fun of your sister. When you get married, no one in your family will help you and you will be anxious all by yourself. You will be obedient by then." Li Mingxia was no longer anxious and had time to deal with his younger brother.
Li Zhengde didn't expect that his sister could find a way to make him shut up at this time, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Sister! Mingyu is still here! What are you talking about!" Li Zhengde finally uttered these words after holding it in for a long time.
But it was obviously useless, because Li Mingyu, who originally didn't want to laugh, laughed out loud after hearing this sentence.
"Hahahahahahahahahahaha, yes, I'm here. If I'm not here I can't hear such interesting things. What's wrong, Brother Zhengde?" Li Mingyu said while laughing, not intending to give Li Zhengde any face.
"Sister Mingxia, look at my brother Zhengde. Does he already have a girl he likes? If so, why not marry her? Wouldn't it be a double happiness then?"
Li Zhengde didn't expect that Li Mingyu, who didn't dare to speak loudly before, would become so "sharp-tongued". He felt like he was shooting himself in the foot.
"Well, how else can we prove that Yu is meticulous? This is a very good suggestion. How about we do it this way?" Li Mingxia said to Li Zhengde.
"Sister! How could I have anyone I like! Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't have laughed at you just now, I was wrong! Sister, you and Mingyu please stop laughing at me!" Li Zhengde quickly raised his hands in surrender!
