Chapter 252: Hospitality
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation?????? Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mother Jian was pleasantly surprised as she went forward to welcome Master
Guan and Madam Guanβs family. She did not expect that a wealthy family like Madam Guan would personally come to her shop.
Madam Guan was her first customer, so Mother Jianβs feelings towards her were somewhat different.
She went forward and said warmly, βMaster Guan, Madam Guan, please come in!β
Madam Guan beamed as she handed a gift to her and said, βItβs a grand opening!
Madam Guan had interacted with Mother Jian a few times because of the cake purchase. She was very fond of her neither servile nor overbearing personality. From their interactions, she learned that she had a very capable daughter and that she was on good terms with the county magistrate of Shifeng County.
If they only admired Mother Jianβs personality, Master Guanβs family would definitely not have come personally. They might have sent a trusted aide to deliver some congratulatory gifts. At most, it would be Madam Guan. However, knowing that Mother Jianβs daughter was on good terms with the county magistrate was a different matter.
Master Guan was an average-sized fifth-rank official in Cairo City. This time, he returned to Shifeng County to pay respects to the ancestors. He knew the identity of Ming Zhiyan. He was the Emperorβs nephew, the most honorable identity in this remote Cairo City. Therefore, he thought of building a good relationship with Mother Jian, hoping to get on the good side of ming Zhiyan.
However, the matter of communicating with the woman still had to be handled by Madam Guan herself. She looked around the shop and praised with a smile, βYour shop is beautiful and special. Itβs very different from other shops.β
βOf course not. What would Madam like to eat? There are a lot of fresh food and milk tea today. Would you like some?
Madam Guan nodded with a smile, βThen letβs have some of each.β
At this moment, Master Guan was looking around absentmindedly. Suddenly, he saw Ming Zhiyan sitting in a cubicle. His eyes lit up and he walked over quickly, he said politely, βMaster Ming, youβre here too! Iβm the Governor of Cairo City, Guan Zidong. Iβve heard a lot about you!β
Ming Zhiyan nodded coldly and asked, βWhatβs the matter?β
Master Guan could see Ming Zhiyanβs coldness. He chuckled guiltily and said, βNothing, nothing. I just want to get to know Master Ming. You can eat first. I wonβt disturb you.β
Jian Qingqing looked at Master Guanβs back as he left and asked, βWhy is the
Cairo City garrison here? He seems to be on good terms with my mother.β
Ming Zhiyan looked at Master Guanβs family of four and said, βHeβs quite honest. He doesnβt have great talent and is mediocre in his work. He hasnβt been promoted for many years. Maybe he wants to specialize now.β
Jian Qingqing replied with an βohβ. She was afraid that someone would use her mother to do something. However, her family was just ordinary people and did not have much value. She was relieved again.
Master Guan and Madam Guan entered the private room. He was drinking milk tea casually and thinking about something.
The two children ate the cake happily.
Madam Guan wiped her sonβs mouth and asked curiously, βWas that Master Ming just now?
Master Guan nodded.
Madam Guan praised, βHe looks like a dragon and phoenix among men.β
Master Guan said regretfully, βBut heβs quite difficult to deal with. I canβt even talk to him.β
Madam Guan comforted him, βTake your time. Thereβs no rush. Even if you canβt get promoted for the time being, it doesnβt matter. The children and I will always be with you.β
Master Guan looked at her disapprovingly. βHow can we give you and the children a better life if we donβt get promoted?β
Madam Guan sighed and said, βIn the past, it was Song Yuancheng who was pressuring you, so you didnβt dare to do anything more. Now that that person is gone, it seems that the newly opened prefect has to do something. You have to work hard too. Why worry about not getting promoted? That Master Ming is obviously not a person who likes to specialize in franchises. If you keep trying to curry favor with him, Iβm afraid youβll even make him unhappy. Itβs better to do things in a down-to-earth manner. Perhaps youβll even catch his eye.β Master Guan nodded thoughtfully.
Madam Guan looked at him. As long as he listened to her, she smiled and took a sip of milk tea.
Not bad..
