Chapter 218: The Good Will of Shopkeeper Han
Embarrassment crept up her cheeks. Liu Siyu coughed lightly to hide her inner embarrassment, then walked up to Ziyuan to say hello.
Zi Yuan clearly saw this scene, but pretended not to care.
He called "Sister Siyu" with an innocent look on his face, and then stared at Han Dongyi curiously.
"Master Han, why are you here too?"
Han Dongyi responded with a polite smile, "I am here on my father's orders to pick up Miss Siyu and take her to Qingfeng Tower."
Zi Yuan listened to Han Dongyi's distant yet polite words, and a trace of anger rose in her heart.
They are clearly an engaged couple, and most importantly, Liu Siyu is just a country girl.
In terms of looks and status, he is not as good as her in any aspect, but he is more likable than her in every way.
But in front of Han Dongyi, Zi Yuan suppressed all her hatred deep in her heart, and her face remained pure and innocent.
"If uncle has something urgent, let Sister Siyu go first. I will come to play with Sister Siyu later."
Han Dongyi thanked him politely.
However, Liu Siyu felt that it was somewhat inappropriate to go with Han Dongyi in front of Ziyuan, so she invited Ziyuan to go to Qingfeng Tower together.
Ziyuan looked at Han Dongyi happily, her face full of little girl's curiosity.
"Can I go?"
His restaurant was originally for receiving guests, so Han Dongyi naturally couldn't refuse.
"Of course, let's go together!"
In the carriage, Zi Yuan was very enthusiastic and caring towards Liu Siyu.
Sometimes she talked about where the food was delicious, sometimes she talked about where there were fun things to do, and she also said that she had just got a piece of silk that was very suitable for Liu Siyu.
Liu Siyu hurriedly declined.
Zi Yuan pouted playfully, "Do you think my stuff is not good enough?"
Liu Siyu felt a little embarrassed, as she knew that Aunt Fu and Ziyuan were not having a good life.
Besides, she was in the countryside all day and had little time to wear silk.
But I can’t say anything about promoting the drama, after all, it’s someone else’s intention.
Han Dongyi saw Liu Siyu's dilemma and waved his hand.
"It's just a piece of silk. Why hesitate? If Ziyuan likes silk, I will give her a few more."
After hearing this, Ziyuan's cheeks turned slightly red with shyness.
She said tenderly, "Thank you, young master, for helping me out. Sister Siyu and I hit it off right away. That piece of silk was given to me by my elder brother a few days ago. I thought it was very good, so I wanted to give it to my sister."
Liu Siyu thought that this was specially prepared for her by Aunt Fu, and it was inconvenient for her to deliver it personally, so she had to ask Ziyuan to do it.
So I stopped being pretentious and accepted it happily.
When they arrived at Qingfeng Tower, Liu Siyu went to see Manager Han alone, while Ziyuan was naturally accompanied by Han Dongyi.
Han Dongyi felt that although the two were about to get engaged, it was still inappropriate for them to meet alone like this.
He asked the servants to bring some fruits and was about to leave when Ziyuan suddenly called him.
"Master Han, can I ask you a few words?"
Han Dongyi turned his head doubtfully, "Of course."
Ziyuan grew up in a large mansion and is very good at observing people's words and expressions.
She knew that Han Dongyi might not like other things, but there was one topic that he would definitely not refuse.
Pretending to be curious, he asked, "Master Han, can you tell me about Sister Siyu?"
Han Dongyi knew Liu Siyu's background, and he also heard Qin Feng talk about the relationship between Liu Siyu and Ziyuan.
Along the way, I saw that Ziyuan liked Liu Siyu very much. I thought that the sisters had finally recognized each other and were concerned about each other.
He then told her about Liu Siyu's miserable life in the past.
Zi Yuan felt very distressed when she heard this. She expressed concern from time to time and tears fell.
Han Dongyi couldn't bear it, "Don't be too sad, her family's life is not as difficult as before, and it will be better with your care in the future."
Zi Yuan sobbed and nodded, "I will. I will treat Sister Siyu as my own sister."
Han Dongyi smiled and handed the fruits to Ziyuan.
"Okay, don't be too sad. You'll feel much better if you eat something."
Ziyuan took the fruit shyly and looked up at Han Dongyi.
Han Dongyi also responded to her with a sincere smile.
Not to mention that their favorability has been soaring, the two people upstairs are also having a good chat.
Shopkeeper Han also heard about Liu Siyu showing off her skills in public yesterday.
The main purpose of calling her here today was to give her a reminder.
"Miss Siyu, I know you are a smart child, but Cangzhou is different from the countryside. You must think twice before doing anything in the future."
Liu Siyu bowed to Manager Han with gratitude.
"Thank you, Manager Han, for your reminder. However, I had no other choice but to come up with this idea. The workshop is still receiving continuous investment."
"I want to find some new way out, but I have no other options, so I have to take advantage of Young Master Qin's wedding to try my luck."
Shopkeeper Han understood Liu Siyu's situation. She developed things that women liked, but there was no woman around Liu Siyu who was able to consume them.
"Your idea is correct, but in the mansion..."
Shopkeeper Han suddenly paused for a moment when he said this.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. With Qin Feng here, even if someone has some ideas, they won't dare to bring them to light."
Liu Siyu didn't agree with this statement. She had always been on guard against Qin Feng.
I felt a little more expectant towards Aunt Fu.
After all, she was the original owner's biological mother.
The two exchanged a few polite words and the topic turned to business.
Shopkeeper Han revealed that the fruit-flavored colorful balls are more popular than herbal juices, and he hopes she will increase production.
Liu Siyu felt a little embarrassed. After she and Lai Xi divorced, the work of making colored balls could definitely not be handed over to Ximei and the others.
People's hearts are hidden. Even if Ximei and the others have no bad intentions, it is hard to say about Shen Yufang.
Living in the same house, if Shen Yufang did something bad, the consequences would be serious.
Seeing Liu Siyu in trouble, Shopkeeper Han hurriedly asked, "But what's wrong with the colored balls?"
Liu Siyu waved her hands hastily, "No, it's just..."
"Just what? If you have something to say, just say it."
What Shopkeeper Han least wants to hear now is that there is something wrong with the meatballs. Fermented rice meatballs are very popular right now, and he doesn't want them to be out of stock suddenly.
Of course, when it comes to food, he doesn't feel comfortable just changing restaurants.
Liu Siyu took a deep breath and simply told Lai Xi that she and Lai Xi were about to divorce.
Shopkeeper Han frowned slightly when he heard this. "Why is that?"
Liu Siyu didn't want to talk about the details, and Manager Han saw her embarrassment.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "How about this? I'll give you an extra 5 cents per pound of colored balls, and you can buy fruits in the village."
"If the Tian family is sane, they will not refuse to sell the fruit to you."
"Of course, if you need any help, just let me know. I consider you as both a partner and a friend."
Liu Siyu felt warmed when she heard this. To be honest, Manager Han had given her a lot of help and care.
Today's words, even if they are just polite, are heartwarming.
He immediately smiled and said, "Manager Han, thank you for your kindness. I know you want to gain a foothold in Cangzhou, but I'm afraid it won't be easy with your current strength."
Shopkeeper Han immediately became interested.
"Oh, tell me!"
Liu Siyu did not hide her feelings and said directly: "Your restaurant is the best in town, but I heard from Han Dongyi that there are still competitors in Qinghe County."
"What's more, in a place like Cangzhou, your decision to marry into the Qin family shows that your family is in urgent need of a big tree to lean on."
