Chapter 248 You're Ugly
When Ah Da and Ah Er entered the restaurant, there were no empty tables. They sat on small stools against the wall and waited for a while before they could barely share a table with others.
Zou An wiped his greasy little mouth with the drool in front of him and looked at A-Da across from him, saying, "Today's an even number, there's a discount for orders over a certain amount!"
"Big brother, you can pack two more dishes to take home and eat."
After saying that, he kicked off with his little legs, grabbed a chicken leg in his hand, and ran to another table, chattering away about the discounts available today.
Sure enough, several tables of guests immediately ordered more food and drinks.
Just like last time, he went to sit at the counter, but this time Wen Luozhi wasn't there; instead, Wen Zizhou was.
No one's paying the bill right now; Wen Zizhou is reciting his multiplication table.
Seeing the little boy climb onto the stool so familiarly, he shooed him away, "Go away! Whose child is this?"
"Don't cause trouble!"
Zou An grinned, showing his two tiny teeth, and said, "Big brother, I just want to sit here and not do anything."
Wen Zizhou looked at him suspiciously; the wine on the cabinet behind him was too high for the little child to reach.
He still has to finish memorizing the multiplication tables today; he doesn't have time to deal with this little kid.
He buried himself in writing out the multiplication table, and when he occasionally went to pay the bill, he found that all the "take care" and "welcome to come again next time" messages had been snatched away by the little kids next to him.
"You're great!" Wen Zizhou praised without reservation, and Zou An's mouth became even more enthusiastic.
The Mid-Autumn Festival's afterglow hadn't worn off yet, and everyone was still happy. Zou An received even more silver this time than last time.
The more Wen Zizhou carried it, the more he felt something was wrong. He turned around and saw that the chubby baby's purse was already bulging.
It was deflated when I came over!
"Go away! Get out of here right now!" he said angrily.
This chubby kid actually came to their restaurant to make quick money! Normally, all that lucky money is his!
hateful!
Zou An felt that was enough, and with a beaming smile, he jumped off the stool and gave Wen Zi'an a proper bow, saying, "Thank you, big brother, may you make a fortune!"
He skipped away, leaving Wen Zizhou speechless.
Oh well, it's just a little kid earning some money to buy candy.
My sister said that people who are too calculating rarely make money, so let him be.
The chubby boy has a surprisingly sweet tongue; he's just as sweet-talking as him.
Jiang Shuqian also came today, but she is currently chatting and laughing with Wen Luozhi on the third floor.
Wolf Overlord was still playfully fighting with Wen Zi'an nearby, but fortunately the house was big enough that they could keep up the noise.
When Wolf Batian seemed a bit tired of playing, Wen Luozhi let out two howls, and the two of them stopped and sat down obediently.
Jiang Shuqian covered her mouth and chuckled. Wen Zi'an wanted to play with Lang Batian, but she glared at him and shut him up.
She's really playing games! She's trying to find ways to help that fat wolf lose weight!
Otherwise, with its lazy attitude of just lying there after eating its fill every day, when will it ever become a human?
Wolf Overlord wasn't done playing and barked at her twice in dissatisfaction.
It's just a wolf, it can't go out and roam around as it pleases, so what's wrong with it playing in the house a little longer?!
Wen Luozhi patted its head and secretly glanced at Jiang Shuqian, who was smirking, and Wen Zian, who looked a bit silly.
Alas! While others light beacon fires to amuse their concubines, her fourth brother is like a cat toy toying with a fat wolf...
This tool wolf is still oblivious to its own ignorance, but at least it met its exercise target for today.
Jiang Shuqian smiled and explained that she had something to do at home and wouldn't be able to come tomorrow. Wen Zian stood up anxiously and asked, "What about the day after tomorrow?"
"Miss Jiang, would you like to come to our house as a guest? Wasn't Young Master Jiang planning to bring his classmates over?"
Jiang Shuqian didn't expect him to react so strongly, and her face turned slightly red.
Seeing Wen Luozhi's eyes darting between the two of them, her face flushed red.
"Come on, Luo Zhi, I hope you don't find me bothering you."
Although she mentioned Wen Luozhi in her words, she glanced shyly at Wen Zi'an quickly before hurriedly looking away.
Before Wen Luozhi could reply, Wen Zi'an answered, "Not at all! Not at all! My sister is the most hospitable person ever!"
Wen Luozhi: ...No, I haven't said anything yet...
After playing mahjong with a few people for a while, Jiang Shuqian was reluctant to leave. She held onto the two of bamboo tiles in her hand for a long time.
Wen Luozhi, who was standing next to her "watching the game," urged her, "Hurry up and throw it out, Shuqian! You've won! Time to collect the money!"
"Huh? Oh!" Jiang Shuqian quickly threw the mahjong tiles away, and now both the silver pearls and Wen Zian's copper coins were hers.
Seeing her stunned expression, Wen Luozhi grabbed the coins and stuffed them into her hand, then said to the two losers, "Alright, alright! That's enough for today!"
Wen Zian was somewhat unconvinced; he had lost more than twenty copper coins!
No, he still wants to win it back!
"Little sister, didn't you say you shouldn't play mahjong like this?"
You can't start running after winning against others, otherwise they'll be unhappy and won't invite you next time.
Wen Luozhi smiled as she arranged the mahjong tiles. "Rules are rules, but people are flexible."
"Besides, Shuqian has other things to do!"
Wen Zian had no choice but to give up. He saw the person out of the restaurant and watched the carriage drive away, just like before.
I don't know why Li Qiao'er suddenly came here to wait for him today.
Finally, she saw him. She smoothed her hair, pulled down her collar, and walked toward him.
"Fourth Brother Wen," her sweet voice came, and Wen Luozhi immediately got goosebumps on her arms.
She stepped back to the door and looked up at the sky, actually wanting to see how this person was going to perform.
Wen Zi'an's mind went blank for a moment, and he turned to run away, but Li Qiao'er stopped him with lightning speed.
Seeing that there was no one around and Wen Luozhi wasn't looking in their direction, she deliberately puffed out her chest and said plaintively, "Fourth Brother Wen, why do you avoid people when you look at them?"
"Is it because Qiao'er is ugly? I know that too."
Wen Zi'an frowned and looked at Wen Luozhi as if pleading for help.
Why did this lunatic target him? He's very busy!
Wen Luozhi pretended not to see and continued to look up at the sky, her mouth practically stretched to her ears.
Li Qiao'er feigned sadness and continued, "That's true, they can't compare to the pampered young ladies of wealthy families."
"If Qiao'er's family were as wealthy as Miss Jiang's family, she could probably achieve the same success as her..."
"Oh right! I was just too embarrassed to say it to you."
“You’re ugly, you can tell yourself that,” Wen Zi’an suddenly changed his demeanor, speaking to Li Qiao’er with a stern face.
He was so annoyed by this woman. She had said something about Miss Jiang before, and she said it again this time. He really didn't know what he had done to offend her.
I'm so bored that I'll go back and collect chamber pots!
Li Qiao'er's eyes widened. "You...you actually said I'm ugly?!"
Her voice was so loud it almost cracked, drawing the attention of the people eating inside.
Wen Zi'an didn't even glance at her. He lifted his foot to walk inside, but Li Qiao'er stopped him.
"Get away!" he said through gritted teeth in a deep voice.
Li Qiao'er, unaware that he was angry, tilted her head back and leaned closer to him, tears welling in her eyes as she tried to speak, "Fourth Brother Wen."
"You've gone too far! They were just talking about Miss Jiang..."
Wen Zi'an was now completely impatient. He shoved Li Qiao'er away, his whole body radiating a murderous aura.
Once inside, the guests instinctively lowered their heads and quickly started eating.
Don't watch things that you shouldn't be watching!
Xie He came out carrying the dishes and bumped into him. Seeing his stern face and displeasure, she slapped him twice.
"What? Don't give me that attitude! Go upstairs and wait!"
