A car accident, our family of three crossed

On the other side, Zhou Tong drove the carriage to lead away the stalkers and strolled around the street for a few laps, almost strolling through all the streets in the capital. Finally, he entered the shop of Jubao Pavilion and never came out again.

Those who were stalking followed behind him for several laps and were very tired. Now they finally stopped and were able to take a break.

Just when they were feeling better, several people started cursing.

"Damn it, could it be that they discovered us and are deliberately taking us around in circles?"

"Very likely. Too cunning."

"Then, what should we do? Should we continue to guard it?"

"What can we do if we don't guard it? How can we report back if we haven't done our job well?"

On Jixiang Street, at Zhou Mansion, the manager of a workshop outside the city was visiting with two jars of good wine and some snacks.

Seeing the visitor, Zhou Huan said jokingly, "Wow! What a rare guest! What brings General Manager Xu to my house? I wonder what brings you here?"

"Stop talking to me like that. Don't you know why I'm here?"

Manager Xu naturally came for Shuisheng’s matter.

When Shuisheng first entered the workshop, he didn't know your background, so when you were excluded and isolated, he didn't ask, but he was also trying to find out the young man's background.

But now, Shuisheng has become a hot commodity. Not only are the old masters fond of him, but he is also very fond of him. He is really worried that Shuisheng will never return to the workshop because of what happened today.

So, after finishing his work in the workshop, he rushed back to the capital without stopping.

They were all old acquaintances, so Manager Xu did not beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.

Zhou Huan, however, deliberately left him out, and kept making insulting remarks to him.

"Why are you so anxious now? What were you doing before?"

"I told you at the beginning that I gave you this young man, and you got a bargain. You must not have taken it to heart, right?"

"What's the matter? Now you know that people are popular and rare?"

"Since you know that he is a popular person, you actually let him be bullied by your relatives under your nose. You are not strict with your subordinates."

Manager Xu listened patiently to Zhou Huan's criticisms one after another. He did not refute a single word, nor did he have any way to refute. Although the words were not pleasant to hear, they were all facts.

To be honest, he also felt a little resentful. Those people teamed up to do small things to Shuisheng from time to time behind his back, and he was really unaware of it.

Firstly, those people did it without leaving any trace, and except for Shuisheng who was involved, it would be difficult for outsiders to notice it.

Secondly, Shuisheng never made this matter public and just kept working hard. Therefore, if they hadn't started fighting today, no one would have known that they had so many little grudges in private.

And the man who fought with Shuisheng today was the cousin of Manager Xu's daughter-in-law. Because of this relationship, Manager Xu felt that he was in the wrong.

Before returning to the capital, he also gave that relative a severe scolding, and several other people who usually participated in making trouble for Shuisheng were also taken back by their respective masters to be reprimanded.

Zhou Huan tried to persuade the other party for a long time, but when he saw that the other party remained silent, he felt it was boring.

"Alas! I am too lazy to tell you that you are a narrow-minded person."

Manager Xu was a little speechless. How did they end up talking about the situation? He felt that if he didn't say anything, Zhou Huan would say something even more unpleasant.

"Yes, yes, brother, you are right. Look, I am here to make amends. Can you give me some advice?"

This attitude was already humble enough, and Zhou Huan didn't want to continue to be unreasonable, so he stopped his gaze on the two jars of wine and snacks that Manager Xu brought over.

"What good stuff is this?"

Manager Xu quickly put on a smile and pushed the jar of wine over.

"It's thirty years old. I made a special trip to the east of the city to get it. How about we have a bite?"

As he spoke, he uncorked the wine, and then took out the snacks he had brought from the food box, "Sauced pork elbow and peanuts, perfect for drinking."

"Don't use these vulgar things to please me. Can my house be without this bite of food?"

Although Zhou Huan said this, he had already reached out to the wine jar and took a deep breath, "From Li's in the east of the city?"

"You have a very good nose! Come on, let me fill it up for you."

Manager Xu did not allow him to refuse. He took the bowl and poured a full bowl for each of them.

Seeing this, Zhou Huan couldn't help but complain: "I say, Lao Xu, when did you develop this bandit mentality of drinking big bowls of wine and eating big mouthfuls of meat?"

Even though he disliked it, he still honestly picked up the bowl and drank the wine, sighing with satisfaction: "Good wine."

"Of course. Since I'm here, how can I not bring you some good wine? Come, try this braised pork elbow." Manager Xu was very attentive and added wine and served dishes to Zhou Huan.

However, Zhou Huan took two bites of the braised pork elbow and shook his head: "This pork elbow is not so good, not as delicious as the one braised by Shu Heng's wife."

Manager Xu didn't believe it, "You are just bragging! This is Zui Xiang Ju's pork elbow in soy sauce. Is there any other place in Beijing that has pork elbow in soy sauce better than Zui Xiang Ju's?"

Zhou Huan laughed when he heard this: "Hehe, you have never eaten fine bran, Zui Xiang Ju is nothing."

"Yes, you have eaten bran before, so take your brother out to see the world tomorrow!"

"It's easy to talk about."

As the two of them toasted each other, three rounds of drinks were soon over. Manager Xu, taking advantage of the alcohol, began to ask questions.

"I say, who is Shuisheng? I've never heard of your family having such a relative." Fearing that Zhou Huan would use the excuse of relatives to stop him, he stopped him in advance, "Who is the boy's master? His craftsmanship is really not exaggerated, even many qualified old craftsmen in the workshop are not as good as him."

Not only does he have good craftsmanship, the key is that he also has a flexible mind. Other craftsmen can only make things according to the drawings, but he can develop new things based on the drawings.

He has to retain such talents in order to gain greater profits for the workshop.

Zhou Huan didn't intend to hide it from him at this moment. He took a sip of wine and said, "I advise you to put away those little thoughts! You can't keep people in the end."

"Why? You've already drunk the wine and eaten the meat, why don't you help me, your brother?"

Manager Xu immediately became anxious, thinking that Zhou Huan would deny his promise after drinking the wine, and that the wine and meat he had spent money on were wasted.

Zhou Huan saw that he was getting angry and rolled his eyes at him, "Why are you so anxious? I haven't even finished what I was saying! You are already old, why are you still so unstable?"

Manager Xu also felt that he had lost his composure a little, and quickly admitted his mistake: "It was my brother who lost his composure, go on, please."
