Chapter 405: Chapter 405: Mother’s Love, Daughter’s Filial Piety

If my memory serves me right, that little girl is the adopted daughter of the owner, who once brought her to the restaurant.

She’s a very obedient kid.

"The manager just went out. Where are the customers you mentioned? Show me to their table."

Li Zi made a sound of acknowledgment, turned around and guided his master toward the Main Hall.

"Master, it’s that table."

"Alright, you can go on with your tasks, leave them to me." Wang Sheng instructed, then headed towards Chi Sheng and their table.

"Honored guests, I wonder what business you have with our manager. She just went out moments ago. If it’s not a serious matter, you can discuss it with me."

As Wang Sheng spoke, he secretly observed the little girl who was busily eating.

He remembered Yuanbao. She has chubby cheeks, giving her an especially adorable, fair, and tender appearance.

But this little girl was thin and dark, and her face wasn’t clear.

"We are here to negotiate a business deal with Miss Lin." Chi Sheng said, placing the jar of wine he had brought on the table.

They had brought a jar of wine with them on this trip to Yan City, weighing around thirty pounds. If the deal went through, the rest of the goods would be delivered from the village to Yan City.

Wang Sheng seemed slightly bewildered because his boss was married a few days ago. It should be proper to address her as a married woman.

"Is there something wrong?"

Noticing his silence, Chi Sheng felt puzzled and slightly turned his body to look at him.

"Our boss was married a few days ago. Since you are here to negotiate business, could you please wait for a while? I will inform her about it."

Just as Wang Sheng was about to leave, he noticed Yuanbao’s delicate eyebrows knit together.

"Uncle, did my mother get married?"

The little girl looked at him eagerly, making Wang Sheng momentarily unsure of how to answer.

Chi Sheng also felt rather awkward and desired to cover his daughter’s mouth.

After all, Miss Lin and Shen Xiaolang were intended to be married. So, it would be perfectly normal for them to get married.

But it seems a bit odd when the little girl asks about it.

"Dad, why are you staring at me?" Yuanbao pouted, the corner of her mouth smeared with a circle of red fruit sauce.

"Mom got married and she didn’t even invite Yuanbao."

"You little girl, what nonsense are you spouting?" After scolding his daughter, Chi Sheng finally showed a look of apology.

"Sorry to trouble you."

"No trouble at all."

At this moment, Wang Sheng was finally completely convinced of Yuanbao’s identity.

After all, the only cheeky young girl he knew was Yuanbao.

Upon hearing that Yuanbao and Chi Sheng had come to the restaurant, Nanzhi, without procrastinating the matter of buying spices, hurriedly rushed back.

After her marriage, Nanzhi had started to put up a married women’s bun, and the clothes she now wore seemed more dignified.

The moment she stepped in, Yuanbao was taken aback.

"Mother!"

"Yuanbao!" Nanzhi hugged Yuanbao who had rushed over and all her features brightened up with joy.

"Why are you here?"

The little girl pouted and raised her head, saying with a sulky tone, "Mother doesn’t love Yuanbao anymore. You didn’t even tell me when you got married!"

"You naughty girl." Nanzhi laughed and pinched the little girl’s cheek, then explained softly, "You guys live so far away from Yan City, how could I ask you to make such a trip?"

The little girl hummed for a while and then drew out two round stones from her bosom.

"Mother, these are gifts for you and stepfather."

She found these two stones by the riverside, they’re so pretty!

Looking at the two round stones, Nanzhi’s eyes squinted into a smile.

"Thank you for the gift, Yuanbao."

The small stone fell into her palm, and Nanzhi only felt a chill that made her shiver involuntarily.

The stone is so cold.

"Brother Chi, long time no see." After all, they were outside, so Nanzhi didn’t feel right to call him ’boss’. Instead, she addressed him by his age, calling him Brother Chi.

"Congratulations, congratulations." Chi Sheng hadn’t expected her to get married so quickly. The fact that even his daughter had sent wedding gifts made him feel a bit rude for not bringing anything.

"I heard from my staff that you’re here for business, Brother Chi?"

Seeing his embarrassment, Nanzhi tactfully changed the subject.

"Yes." With the chance to change the subject, Chi Sheng quickly poured wine into a bowl he had just asked the waiter for.

As soon as the seal was opened, the scent of wine filled the compartment.

"This is our ’Thousand Gold’ wine. If it sells well, we’d like to establish a partnership with you."

The daily sales at Sanwei Inn are largely due to the ’Thousand Gold’ wine. After all, despite the size of the restaurant, a lavish meal would cost no more than two tael of silver. At most, it would be five taels.

Compared with Hongfu Building and Zuitingxuan, the consumption at Sanwei Inn has always been a level lower.

However, the restaurant’s daily sales are no less than sixty taels, which is largely due to the well-to-do families in Yan City sending people to buy wine every day.

The ordinary ’Thousand Gold’ wine sells for five mace of silver per pot, and a small jar sells for two taels.

A pot of aged wine is two taels of silver, and a small jar of aged wine is ten taels.

How good this wine is, she naturally understood best.

"How do you plan to price it, Brother Chi?" Nanzhi tasted a sip of it, her eyes sparkling slightly.

The wine is indeed good.

The restaurant’s wine stock is nearly depleted, and the remaining aged wine probably won’t last much longer either.

Now that it’s hot weather, if they run out of wine, it will take away from the fun of the barbecue. The customer base that has been painstakingly established would no longer be stable.

"Eighty percent of the market price will do."

Chi Sheng made an eighty-percent sign with his hand.

Firstly, because they were the ones asking for help this time, they had to make some concessions no matter what.

Secondly, the ’Thousand Gold’ wine brewed in their village was too abundant. In the future, they probably wouldn’t only be supplying to Sanwei Inn.

"Okay."

Nanzhi didn’t stand on ceremony. After they agreed on the price and delivery date, she brought up another topic.

"And the sales of this wine in the future ..."

"Don’t worry, Manager Lin, we will deliver our wine to Sanwei Inn first. If there are other shops that want to purchase, we will definitely let you know first."

Chi Sheng spoke openly, with no intention of concealing their plans.

Everyone in their village depends on this wine for their livelihood. They can’t starve them just because of personal relations.

"Then it’s a deal." Nanzhi nodded with a smile, joyfully pinching Yuanbao’s face.

"Have you lost weight? Your Brother Maomao often mentions you."

Nanzhi couldn’t help but laugh every time she thought of her nephew staring blankly at the corner of the room.

Especially when the little guy shook his head and sighed.

"Aren’t Brother Maomao and the others at the academy?" The little girl blinked, revealing way too much in her eyes.

"They still have half a month of vacation left. If you want Yuanbao, you can go live with mom. Then we can have your Brother Maomao and others come stay for a few days."

Nanzhi rubbed the little girl’s head.

"Ok!"

Yuanbao almost jumped with joy, hugging Nanzhi, and proceeded to shower her with praises.

Watching their interaction, Chi Sheng felt a touch of unusual emotion.
