After rebirth, Jiaojiao Cook and Silly Marquis counterattacked

Chapter 106 A woman who doesn’t know etiquette

After he hired a carriage in Yancheng, it arrived at the door of his house within a few hours, and he started bargaining with the coachman.

"We just agreed that it would only be twenty coins. Why do you still sit on the ground and raise the price when we get to the place?"

He Shuqing looked like he was going to quarrel with him.

The coachman's momentum is not weak either. He has dealt with all kinds of people over the years.

"The price I mentioned was to deliver it to the town, but you asked me to deliver it here, so of course I have to charge you more."

The coachman argued with reason.

It's not that He Shuqing doesn't have the extra five cents, it's because he feels that the town and the doorstep of his house are also in the town, so why should he charge more.

The woman who had heard a noise a long time ago was really impatient, but the voice sounded familiar, and she couldn't help but curiously walked out.

After he stood still, he realized that the person making the noise was actually his husband, whom he had not seen for a long time.

This woman is He Shuqing's wife Shen.

Although his appearance was ordinary, his family background was very rich. At that time, he married He Shuqing because of his elegant appearance.

He also strived for success and achieved a small degree of fame. Although he was a scholar, he was just working under a minor servant.

But there is only so much money every month, which can barely be spent by himself.

Almost all of the family is supported by Shen's natal family.

If he hadn't married Mr. Shen, he probably wouldn't have a house in this town. He could only live in an old small house in the village, and his life would be very miserable.

"Isn't it just five cents? Just give it to him."

Mrs. Shen didn't bother to quarrel with this man. A group of people gathered around him, making the neighbors laugh.

After the driver got the money, he left angrily.

But He Shuqing felt that he had lost face and rushed home, with Shen chasing after him.

"You're angry?"

Mrs. Shen really couldn't understand him, so she quarreled with people on the street over five cents.

How could He Shuqing dare to say that he was angry? He shook his head and said nothing.

It can be seen from his expression that he is very unhappy.

What man doesn’t want the woman he marries to admire and look up to him.

But every time in front of Ms. Shen, he felt like he was being humbled by her.

The feeling of being pressed by her really made him unable to be happy.

Mrs. Shen walked up to him.

"I know you're angry, but it's only five cents and it's not something you can't get out. There's no need to argue with people about this kind of thing in the future."

After saying that, she handed him two taels of silver.

Originally, He Shuqing felt unhappy.

But after touching his somewhat empty wallet, he still accepted it without restraint and smiled at Ms. Shen.

"How could I be angry with my wife? It's just that the coachman did something wrong in this matter. I just argued with reason. I won't argue next time."

He Shuqing has managed Shen very well over the years.

As long as she says this, Shen will never say anything else.

She looked at He Shuqing and nodded, smiling with hints in her eyes.

"You finally came back, why not tonight..."

Shen is seven years younger than He Shuqing, which is the age when a wolf resembles a tiger.

But he and He Shuqing have been busy outside.

She also thought about moving directly to the capital, but a mansion in the capital would cost at least a hundred taels, and she wouldn't be able to afford that much for a while.

"Let's talk about it, where are dad and mom?"

He Shuqing didn't want to have too much contact with her. The two had been married for so many years and had never had children.

When Shen heard those two words, her face suddenly turned ugly.

"Let's talk again, He Shuqing, tell me clearly, is there someone outside?"

Seeing that Mr. Shen was about to cause trouble, He Shuqing agreed.

"Dad and mother are both in the house. I'm going to prepare the things for bathing first."

After Shen achieved his goal, he left with a smile.

He Shuqing felt helpless, but he did not forget the business and walked into the house.

At this time, He Tianhong and Zheng were sitting on the main seats.

They had just heard their son's voice and were already impatient.

"Come on! Let me take a good look!"

When Mrs. Zheng saw He Shuqing, tears immediately filled her eyes.

He Shuqing immediately walked up and sat aside. Zheng looked up and down curiously.

"My son, it makes me want to die. Why does it look like I have lost so much weight? I have to eat well in the capital."

Zheng's words were full of concern.

After saying that, she gave He Shuqing a few taels of silver, which she had saved by herself.

He Tianhong on the side gave him a cold look, and He Shuqing stuffed the money back.

"Mom, I have money. If you save it, you can keep it for yourself."

Fortunately, He Tianhong didn't say anything more, and He Shuqing finally remembered the business.

"Mom and Dad, do you know the most famous restaurant in Yancheng?"

He Shuqing looked at them expectantly.

The two elders have not been to Yancheng for a long time, and they are not very well informed.

They're not interested in that either.

"Isn't it the one called Zuixianlou? It's a century-old brand." Ms. Zheng thought for a moment.

He Shuqing shook his head.

"The busiest thing right now is Haohan Restaurant. Guess who the boss is?"

"Guess what. If you want to say something, just say it. If you don't want to say something, just shut up."

He Tianhong said directly.

It seems that He Shuqing's impatience problem is hereditary.

Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

She has been enduring it since her son walked in the door just now.

Although He Tianhong is strict with his son, he is afraid of his wife.

"It's opened by the Qin family. The Qin family has a daughter-in-law named Dong Qian, who is the cook of Haohan Restaurant, and she is my sister's daughter."

He Shuqing didn't dare to keep selling out, so he had to tell everything.

When they heard the word sister, the expressions of He Tianhong and Zheng changed imperceptibly.

"What did you do for her? She has nothing to do with our He family now, and what a shameful appearance a girl has in her family. It is simply a disgrace to the family!"

He Tianhong's attitude was very firm, and Mrs. Zheng nodded in agreement.

"So what if I open a restaurant? If I admit my relatives and come back, it will bring shame on our He family. Our He family has never had such a ungrateful woman!"

Cheng maintains the same view in this regard.

He Shuqing didn't know what to say. If they had seen the scene of queuing outside the restaurant that day, they might not want to recognize their relatives.

"Father, mother, you must not be so arbitrary on this matter. You may not know what kind of strength this Dong Qian has."

Mrs. Shen suddenly walked in from outside the door.

Shen's natal family is a businessman and often does business in various cities.

He had already heard about Haohan Restaurant, let alone Dong Qian.

The news that Dong Qian won the first place in the cooking competition was spread directly to the capital.

But because Dong Qian didn't have much ambition and just wanted to stay in Yancheng, it was dropped in the end.

"Do you mean that her strength even exceeds that of her in-laws?"

Zheng felt a little incredible.

Shen nodded without hesitation. She never thought at first that the He family and Dong Qian had such a relationship.
