Chapter 10 Coming forward

 Her grandmother is Wu Qiuniang’s stepmother.

Shen Jintang also didn't expect that her second brother would actually hit Wu Manyun in order to stand up for her, and she only felt warmth in her chest.

She stepped forward and grabbed Shen Yunxuan, comforting her and saying, "Second brother, don't be angry over someone with a dirty mouth. It's not worth it."

As soon as the words fell, there was only a thud. Wu Manyun fell down because she ran too fast.

And there was a lump of dog poop where she was lying, which covered her face.

The disgusting stench almost made her faint.

Just at this moment, shopkeeper Chen arranged the carriage and came over. Seeing this scene, he quickly walked over.

He called for people to help Wu Manyun up and said earnestly: "Oh, isn't this Miss Wu? If Miss Wu is hungry, it's okay even if she doesn't take the money to go to our Hongyun Building for a meal, but you can't face this..." The following words He seemed unable to speak any more.

But Wu Manyun understood what he meant, and she felt angry and ashamed. The tip of her nose was still full of stench, and she fainted before she could take a breath.

Shopkeeper Chen exclaimed in surprise and said quickly: "Hurry, Miss Wu fainted from hunger, quickly send her back to Wu Mansion."

After saying this, he fanned the tip of his nose in disgust. This shit really stinks!

Seeing someone carrying Wu Manyun away, shopkeeper Chen put on a smile, walked quickly to Shen Jintang, and said with a smile: "The carriage has been arranged. Miss, please come with me."

He has already heard from the clerk that this girl is an important customer and must be treated well.

Shen Jintang smiled and followed him into the carriage, thinking that shopkeeper Chen was also a wonderful person, and even hinted that Wu Manyun went to eat dog shit.

He must have seen Wu Manyun speaking rudely to her, and he said that to Wu Manyun in order to curry favor with her.

The carriage drove slowly all the way, and when it arrived at Sanhe Village, some children saw it, cheered and ran behind the carriage.

"What a big carriage. Whose house is this going to?"

A villager straightened up from the field and watched the luxurious carriage swaying past the rugged road.

The carriage drove all the way, not only attracting a group of children, but also many adults who were busy in farming often stood up and watched.

Shen Yunxuan lifted the car curtain to look, and said to the driver: "The house with the smoke rising in front is my home."

A sharp-eyed child saw Shen Yunxuan and ran to the Shen family to report the news: "Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen, Brother Yunxuan is coming to your house in a big carriage."

After Shen Mu heard this, he put down the book in his hand and walked out.

Wu Qiuniang, who was cooking in the kitchen, and Shen Yunxian, who was helping to light the fire, also followed out.

The carriage had arrived at the door of Shen's house, and Shen Yunxuan jumped out first.

Shopkeeper Chen and Shen Jintang followed closely behind.

"Xuan'er, Tang'er, what are you doing?"

Shen Mu was a little confused. Why did his son and daughter go out and come back in a carriage?

Wu Qiuniang and Shen Yunxian also walked over at this time, their eyes full of doubts.

Shen Jintang called his parents and smiled at them: "This is shopkeeper Chen. Let's go home first."

With so many pairs of eyes outside looking at her, she didn’t want to be watched.

Shen Mu came to his senses after being reminded by his daughter, and greeted Shopkeeper Chen with a smile: "Shopkeeper Chen, please come into my humble home."

Seeing Shen Mu's family, shopkeeper Chen and a few waiters entering the Shen family's courtyard, the children were running around to play.

However, a large carriage came to the Shen family today. The Shen Yunxuan brothers and sisters still came in that carriage, but word spread.

Everyone sat down in the main room, and Wu Qiuniang poured tea for Shopkeeper Chen and others.

Although the tea was a bit inferior, shopkeeper Chen and others didn't mind it and took it with a smile and drank it.

Shopkeeper Chen recognized Shen Mu only when he saw her. It turned out that Shen Jintang was Mr. Shen's daughter. Shen Mu teaches in the town and is considered a celebrity, and many people know him.

"It turns out that Miss Shen is Mr. Shen's daughter." After drinking the tea, shopkeeper Chen said with a smile: "Mr. Shen may not know me, but I am the shopkeeper of Hongyun Building in this town."

Shen Mu still knew about Hongyun Tower, but why did the shopkeeper of Hongyun Tower come to his house?

He was still a little puzzled. He never imagined that it was his daughter who sold the fungi to a restaurant.

Shen Yunxuan smiled and explained: "Dad, my sister sold the mushrooms to Hongyun Tower. They came to our house to collect the mushrooms."

Hearing this, not only Shen Mu was surprised, Wu Qiuniang and Shen Yunban also didn't expect that Shen Jintang actually sold the fungi.

It even sold it to Hongyun Restaurant, which is the largest restaurant in town! I heard that there are hundreds of branches all over the country.

Shopkeeper Chen also smiled and said: "Mr. Shen, I wonder where the remaining fungi are? I have to rush back to deliver the work."

Shen Mu understood after listening to Shen Yunxuan's explanation. When he heard what shopkeeper Chen said, he quickly said: "Xuan'er relegated, please take out those fungi and show them to shopkeeper Chen."

Shen Yunxuan and Shen Yunxuan responded in unison and ran to get the remaining mushrooms.

Shen Jintang borrowed his father's pen, ink, paper and inkstone to write more than a dozen recipes for cooking with mushrooms and gave them to shopkeeper Chen.

The two brothers Shen Yunqi brought the remaining fungi and weighed them. They weighed a total of one hundred and fifty-five kilograms.

Shopkeeper Chen asked the waiter to carry the fungi into the car, and he took out three 100-tael silver notes and 10 taels of broken silver from his wallet.

"Mr. Shen, here are three hundred and one taels, please keep them."

Shen Mu shivered while holding the banknote and almost dropped it to the ground.

He tried his best to restrain himself so as not to lose his composure, and sent Shopkeeper Chen out of the door with a gentle smile.

Shen Yunban and Wu Qiuniang were even more stunned. These fungi were actually sold for more than three hundred taels of silver.

Are they dreaming?

After seeing Shopkeeper Chen off, Shen Mu felt as if the bank note in his hand weighed a thousand catties.

He looked at Shen Jintang and Shen Yunxuan and asked: "How do you sell them? How can these fungi be sold for so much money?"

Chen Yunxian and Wu Qiuniang also looked at the two of them with sharp eyes.

Shen Jintang smiled and said: "Dad, the price of these mushrooms is two taels of silver per pound, which was paid by the person in charge of Hongyun Tower himself."

What? Twenty taels of silver per catty, or the price set by the person in charge of Hongyun Tower himself?

Seeing that his parents and eldest brother still looked like they couldn't believe it, Shen Yunxuan felt inexplicably proud.

Look, he also felt like he was dreaming.

My father and brother often said that he didn't like reading and was short-sighted. Now it seems that they don't have much more knowledge than him!

When Shen Yunxuan saw that his sister was not speaking, he smiled proudly and elaborated on what Shen Jintang did in Hongyun Tower when selling mushrooms today.

After finishing speaking, he took out the ninety-two taels of silver settled at Hongyun Tower.
Chapter completed!
