Being rejected by a scholar? She is so rich, what is she afraid of?

The passerby was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, holding his chest with his hands, looking terrified.

Yun Yan quickly got out of the car to check the situation, "Uncle, are you okay..."

Before he could even utter the word "bar", Yun Yan saw clearly who had fallen to the ground. His tone immediately changed.

"Oh, it's Zhao Tongsheng. Are you going back to the village? I'm sorry for what happened just now. The horse suddenly went crazy and almost hit you."

"Yes, you can see clearly that our carriage is still a little distance away from you, so we didn't really hit you. Hurry up and walk a few steps to see if there is anything broken, so that you don't come back and claim that we hit you."

Zhao Pingxiu, who was lying on the ground, saw that it was Yun Yan. He paused while wiping the sweat from his forehead, and his fear instantly turned into anger.

He jumped up from the ground and pointed at Yun Yan and yelled.

"Yun Yan, you did this on purpose, didn't you? Was it murder?"

Yun Yan saw that he was so angry that he jumped up and down, and concluded that he was not injured, and said jokingly,

"No, I can see clearly that there is nothing wrong with you. You were not hit, nor were you injured. You are still alive and well. Don't try to blackmail us in the future."

Zhao Pingxiu, who was self-righteous, snorted coldly, "Do you think I'm like you Yun family, always trying to blackmail others?"

Yun Yan sneered: "Then you'd better do what you say."

He didn't argue with him any more. After saying that, he jumped into the carriage and let Guo Wei drive away.

Zhao Pingxiu chased after the carriage and shouted, "Driver, wait a minute, please give me a ride."

Guo Wei ignored him, waved his whip lightly, and rode away.

From Yun Yan's reaction just now, he knew that he obviously didn't get along with that person, so there was no way he would let anyone get on the carriage.

Yun Yan laughed heartily, patted Guo Wei on the shoulder, and praised, "Well done, Uncle Guo."

Guo Wei chuckled foolishly.

Yun Yan added, "I didn't expect that Uncle Guo is not only a good driver, but also a skilled fighter."

Yun Xi in the carriage lifted the curtain again and stared at Guo Wei's back, as if thinking about something.

Guo Wei said cheerfully, "Hahaha, my skills are just so-so. I served in the army for a few years, but returned home because I had an old mother to take care of. Later, she passed away, so I went to the city to find a job."

So that's how it is. Yun Xi felt that he had an extraordinary temperament. If he had been a soldier, that would make sense.

She glanced at his back again before lowering the carriage curtain.

After returning to the village, Yun Xi did not delay and told her parents about the teahouse and her plan to invite Yun Huaian to be the manager.

Yun Huaiyuan and Xi had no objection.

"Then Daddy should tell my uncle to pack his things immediately and take him to the city tomorrow. If my aunt is willing, she can also come with us. The teahouse has a backyard and the accommodation is spacious."

When Xi heard this, she slapped her thigh and said, "Your aunt will definitely agree. But what about Qiaojie?"

Yun Xi said, "Take it along as well."

Yun Huaiyuan asked, "Do you want to tell them the truth and tell them that the teahouse is yours?"

Yun Xi shook her head. "Let's not talk about it for now. Just say that the teahouse is owned by my eldest brother and his family, and I asked my eldest brother to help find a manager, and I thought of my uncle. I will find a suitable opportunity to talk to my uncle after he has worked for a while."

Even if he said it now, his uncle might still have psychological burden, so he should wait a little longer.

After the few people discussed it, Yun Huaiyuan went to find Yun Huaian and told him about the matter.

Yun Huaian and Li were both very happy, but in the end Li decided to stay at home.

"Qiao'er and I won't go with them for now. The boss hasn't established a firm foothold there yet, so there's no rush."

Yun Huaian promised, "I will work hard and try to bring you and your daughter to the city as soon as possible."

After things were settled here, Li hurried to pack Yun Huaian's things, while the brothers Yun Huaiyuan and Yun Huaian went to find Yun Songlin again.

This is a big deal in the family, and I should tell the old man about it.

After hearing this, the old man's beard trembled with joy. He squinted his eyes and told Yun Huaian to do his work well.

They did not avoid talking about the eldest family. There was nothing to hide about this matter.

Lin on the side wanted to say something for several times but hesitated, but finally couldn't help but speak to Yun Huaiyuan.

"His second uncle, can you tell Brother Qi to find a job for Yun Zheng in the city? He doesn't need to be a shopkeeper, but just a waiter or something."

Yun Songlin paused stroking his beard, glanced at Lin, and sighed in his heart, what a lack of tact.

Yun Huaiyuan said awkwardly, "Sister-in-law, Brother Qi has already been looking for a job for Brother Zheng. If there is a suitable one, he will definitely let him go."

Yun Huaiyuan told Yun Xi about this when he got home. Yun Xi thought about it and said, "If Brother Zheng is willing, let him go to the kitchen of Qixing Building to help."

Yun Zheng is very similar to her uncle, he is simple and honest, not suitable for dealing with people in the front hall. How about learning cooking skills in the kitchen? If it works, he can stay in the restaurant or open a small restaurant of his own.

"But there's no rush. Let's talk about it later."

Yun Huaiyuan meant the same thing. When Lin brought it up today, they immediately said they had work to do, as if they were unwilling to help before. It would be better to wait and see.

.

Xiemu County.

Zhao Junyi spent most of the day transferring the yard to his own name.

He spent more than two hundred copper coins and hired a few women to clean the house inside and out.

The yard was already well maintained, and it only took the women half a day to clean it up.

Zhao Junyi also asked one of the women to help him buy bedding and other things. After everything was ready, he locked the door and returned home.

Thinking of the basket and the packed bamboo lunch box in Qixing Tower, seeing that Zhang had washed and put everything away, he carried the basket and walked towards Qixing Tower.

Although he didn't hear the waiter say yesterday that he would return these things, in Zhao Junyi's opinion, such an exquisite and beautiful bamboo basket, and the bamboo lunch box with various patterns carved inside, would probably cost several hundred coins if he bought it with silver.

So, these must be returned.

However, he never expected that he would meet Yun Qi in the Seven Star Tower when he came to return something.

"Yunqi, why are you here?" Zhao Junyi was very surprised.

In his opinion, a high-end place like the Seven Stars Building was definitely not something a poor country boy like Yun Qi could come to.

Yun Qi frowned, and when he saw the basket in his hand, he understood that this person didn't seem to know that the take-away food box was free.

He didn't care whether he met Zhao Junyi or not. Anyway, the two families had no relationship anymore.

Besides, we are all in the county, so it is only a matter of time before we run into each other. In the future, my business will grow bigger and bigger, and I will not be able to hide it even if I want to.

However, he was unwilling to pay attention to this person, and waved to a waiter, "Go and receive this guest and see if he needs anything."

The waiter replied respectfully. Yunqi went upstairs without looking back.

Zhao Junyi looked at this scene and asked the waiter in confusion, "Why was this man here just now? Why did you obey his orders?"

The waiter looked down on them, not even recognizing their boss. But he had a perfect smile on his face.

"That's our shopkeeper's, so I'll naturally obey his orders."

"That belongs to our shopkeeper..."

"That belongs to our shopkeeper..."

Zhao Junyi was carrying a large basket, walking on the way home in a daze, his mind constantly circling around what the waiter at the Qixing Tower had just said.

"Since the first day the Seven Stars Restaurant opened, our Shopkeeper Yun has been the shopkeeper of the restaurant..."

How long has Qixinglou been open?

It’s been more than a year.

At that time, I had not yet broken off the engagement with the Yun family, and they actually hid such a big thing from me.

If he knew that Yunqi was the owner of the Seven Stars Tower, he would probably think twice about canceling the engagement.

He was the shopkeeper of Qixinglou. Although he was just a shopkeeper, because of the mystery of Qixinglou and the powerful legend behind it, even the county magistrate of Xiemu County had to show courtesy to the shopkeeper of Qixinglou. And Master Zhou and Master Xue had to be respectful when they met him.

Because he wanted to establish some relationship with the Seven Stars Tower, he could only start from the shopkeeper. No one knew who the real master of the Seven Stars Tower was, and it was said that only the shopkeeper had seen him.

This means that Yunqi knows the person behind the Seven Star Tower.

But he kept it a secret from himself, and the Yun family also kept it a secret from them.

Haha, it seems that they have never treated themselves sincerely.

Thinking about how the Yun family had tricked his father into writing an IOU two years ago, Zhao Junyi had nothing to understand. They had been waiting to cancel the engagement and settle the score for a long time.

The Yun family is really great.

Does this mean that you look down on the Zhao family just because you have climbed up the social ladder?

Thinking of how Yun Qi was unwilling to talk to him just now, and the sense of superiority the waiter had when he told him that the basket was free, his face felt hot.

This is making fun of him!

They laughed at him, saying that Zhao Junyi was someone who couldn't afford to come to such a place. He didn't even know the most basic rules of a restaurant and made such a big joke.

In fact, what he thought was a joke was purely his own imagination. It was because he felt that he had no money, no confidence, and was not good at being too sensitive.

Yunqi didn't take the encounter with Zhao Junyi today to heart, and the waiter also turned around and forgot about it. Who knew Zhao Junyi would be so upset.

Not only that, Zhao Junyi also wondered if Yunqi had known about his secret meeting with Xue Yao at the Seven Stars Tower yesterday. He was the owner of the Seven Stars Tower, and he should know exactly who went there for dinner every day.

Thinking of this, Zhao Junyi instantly broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

Damn!

Such a big secret of mine was discovered by Yunqi. Would he expose me? Threaten me?

Suddenly, Zhao Junyi felt as if someone was strangling his throat and his breathing was difficult.

However, judging from Yunqi's attitude today, it seems that he has no intention of blackmailing me.

But if such a handle is in the hands of someone else, especially someone with whom you have a grudge, it is like the other person is holding a knife over your neck, and if you are not careful, the other person can cut your neck.

It really doesn't feel good to have your fate in the hands of others.

No, he had to find a way.

Yunqi, you can’t stay.
