On the other side, Meng Hetang went to Chang Mansion to find Chang Wei, only to see that Chang Wei seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

As soon as she saw him coming, she said impatiently, "You said you wanted me to accompany you to that lady Zhang's house today, but you took so long to come so late."

Meng Hetang said jokingly: "You are a lonely person, I am different from you, why don't you take some time?"

Chang Wei wanted to take off his shoes and throw them to him. Is he a lonely man? It's not like he doesn't have concubines in his backyard, but he just doesn't know why he has lost interest in those women in the backyard. The only thing he thinks about is that little widow!

Seeing that he was angry, Meng Hetang quickly said a few nice words. Seeing that Chang Wei was no longer angry, he pulled him into the carriage and headed towards Caoping Village.

It was almost noon and the person had not arrived yet. Wang Qiuxia asked Jiang Xiaohe worriedly, "Will this person really come?" She was really afraid that the wine in the backyard would not be sold. She had spent money to buy a lot of sugar and put it in the wine.

"Don't worry, mother."

Manager Chang followed behind the carriage. The more he looked at the village, the more familiar it seemed. Wasn't this the village where the young widow Jiang Xiaohe lived?

The people in the village were very surprised to see a horse-drawn carriage appear in the village. They all ran out of their homes, not knowing which family in the village the carriage was coming for.

Manager Chang walked to the curtain of the carriage and called out "Chang Wei".

Chang Wei lifted the curtain and asked him, "What's wrong?"

Manager Chang whispered to him that Jiang Xiaohe also lived in this village. Chang Wei frowned slightly and said, "You mean the young widow lives in this village?"

Manager Chang nodded: "And sir, we saw Jiang Xiaohe doing business at the entrance of the restaurant before. Could this fine wine also be made by her?"

When Chang Wei heard this, he found it interesting. If the person Brother Meng wanted to do business with today was this young widow, then he had made the right decision to come today.

The servant got off the carriage, asked a family standing in front of the door, then jumped back on the carriage and headed towards Jiang Xiaohe's house.

Manager Chang said, "Master, I think it's the widow's house."

Meng Hetang listened to them mumbling for a long time and frowned slightly: "What are you two mumbling about leaning against the window!"

Chang Wei smiled and said, "You'll know later."

The servant in front stopped the carriage and said, "Sir, the carriage ahead can't pass. I'm afraid we have to walk a short distance."

Chang Wei and Meng Hetang got off the carriage.

"where?"

The servant pointed to the house in front and said, "That's the one."

Chang Wei looked at Manager Chang, only to see him nod. He immediately felt three points happier in his heart. It really was that young widow!

The servant tied up the horses and walked forward with a few people.

Behind them, there were many people from the village.

Everyone pointed in the direction they were going and murmured, "Are we going to Zhang Fuji's house?"

"That's not it!"

"Could it be that this is the next home that the Zhang family found for his widow?"

When everyone heard this, their curiosity grew stronger, but someone shook his head: "It doesn't look like that. If they were dating, why didn't they have a matchmaker?"

Then, everyone looked at the few people and knocked directly on Zhang Fuji’s door.

Jiang Xiaohe opened the door.

I thought it was just the owner of the restaurant, but I didn't expect that there were also Chang Wei and Chang the manager standing outside. I was slightly stunned.

Chang Wei spoke first: "We meet again!"

Jiang Xiaohe frowned slightly, it’s better not to meet!

"Why are you here?"

Meng Hetang raised his eyes and looked at Chang Wei: "Do you know each other?"

Chang Wei didn't say anything, but Manager Chang spoke up: "Master Meng, this is what happened in the town that day when my master went to chase..."

Before he could finish his words, Meng Hetang reacted: "Oh oh oh, so the person you were chasing was Madam Zhang in front of us? It's my fault that I didn't recognize her yesterday!"

Wang Qiuxia was originally very happy, but when she saw Chang Wei, she felt bad. After hearing what Meng Hetang said, she felt even worse.

Jiang Xiaohe frowned slightly: "I am very grateful to Master Ritian for helping me, but if there is any misunderstanding between us because of this, I will be ashamed of the kindness I showed you that day."

These words directly separated the two of them.

Wang Qiuxia felt much better after listening to this.

Chang Wei pursed his lips, thinking that this young widow really didn't want to get close to him at all.

But Meng Hetang felt a little embarrassed.

Jiang Xiaohe made a gesture to invite them in: "Please come in, both of you!"

The two of them then walked into the yard. Zhang Fu and Wang Qiuxia quickly brought stools. Jiang Xiaohe looked at the people outside who were watching the fun and closed the gate directly.

As soon as he entered the yard, Chang Wei looked around the house. He saw a few dilapidated adobe and thatched houses, but the yard was clean. Is this the place where a young widow lives?

Meng Hetang took a closer look at the family's financial situation, thinking about how to get the price to the lowest possible level later.

There were no chairs in the house, only a stool, so the two of them sat down.

"I believe you know why I came here today."

Jiang Xiaohe nodded, turned around and took out the wine that had been opened yesterday.

"Boss, do you still need to try it?"

Meng Hetang nodded.

Wang Qiuxia hurried to the kitchen and got two clean bowls.

Jiang Xiaohe poured half a bowl into a bowl.

Meng Hetang looked at Chang Wei, and saw that Chang Wei's eyes changed slightly.

Then the two of them took a sip, and Chang Wei's eyes lit up.

Meng Hetang often did business with him, so he naturally understood the meaning of his eyes and felt a little excited. If this was really the fine wine from the Western Regions, how much silver would he make if he bought the wine and took it to the city, or even the provincial capital?

The two men put down their bowls. During this process, Jiang Xiaohe kept staring at them. Naturally, she caught some of the micro-expressions on their faces and had an idea in her mind.

"This wine made by my wife is indeed a fine wine. What do you think, Brother Chang?"

Chang Wei nodded: "It's really good, sweet and delicious."

"It was Meng who spoke too harshly yesterday. I hope you won't be angry."

Jiang Xiaohe waved her hand: "Boss Meng, you are joking. Business is a two-way choice."

Meng Hetang raised his eyebrows slightly. Does this woman mean that she might not be able to reach an agreement with him?

"Hehe... Madam, you are right. Today, I am willing to take the initiative to visit you, which shows my sincerity. And since you are willing to let us in today, I believe that you are still willing to discuss this business with me, right?"

After Meng Hetang finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Xiaohe and smiled.

Jiang Xiaohe nodded: "Boss Meng is right, but whether this deal can be concluded depends on whether Boss Meng can give me a sincere price today."

Meng Hetang smiled and nodded: "Of course, of course."

Then, Jiang Xiaohe said nothing and waited for him to give a price.

Meng Hetang thought about it and just as Chang Wei said, this wine costs ten gold coins for one tael. Even if he doesn't sell it for ten gold coins, if he sells one tael of wine for ten or twenty taels, his profit will still be huge.

He looked up at the dilapidated house and yard again, and felt that the woman in front of him, even if she had made this fine wine and had some skills, was definitely short-sighted and had never seen the world.

When he thought of this, he immediately had an idea: "My wife, how about this? I'll give you two taels of silver for a jar of this wine." After saying that, he looked at Jiang Xiaohe confidently.
