While they were talking, a servant came to report that the uncle of the Shen family was here and was waiting in the lobby.

They were in the backyard now, and Pei Xiu hurriedly got up and took the three brothers with the Princess Xuexi.

Seeing that this uncle of the Shen family was indeed Shen Yuanxiu, whom they had met in Ning County the year before, he was middle-aged and still gentle and elegant, and he couldn't tell that he was a philistine businessman.

Next to him was a pale boy, who was probably the one from the sunset. He was curiously looking at the Zhou brothers who had rescued him.

Uncle Shen led the little boy to stand up and bowed to Pei Xiu, and then bowed to Princess Xuexi.

"Mrs. Zhou, county master, Mr. Shen is abrupt. Today, she brought her child to the door to thank the two young masters of the Zhou family for helping my son's master and servant at Daming Lake a few days ago, so that they can survive." He finished. Instruct the entourage to present the generous gift.

Pei Xiu looked at the tall gift boxes stacked on the table beside him, and said quickly: "Master Shen is very polite, it's just a little effort, I happen to meet you by chance, and I happen to know water. I don't want to repay the kindness, and I ask you to take it back. ."

"No, the grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by the spring, let alone the grace of saving lives. These external things are not enough to repay the grace of saving lives. They are just gifts from the Shen family to express their gratitude. Please accept Mrs. Zhou. Nine…"

After he finished speaking, he motioned his son beside him to thank the Zhou brothers.

The little boy had just recovered from a serious illness, and his face was still pale, but he was polite and courteous at a young age. He said to the Zhou brothers with a grateful expression: "Thank you for the life-saving grace of the Zhou family, Xiao Jiu is very grateful."

After the three brothers of the Zhou family returned a salute, the boss said politely, "Young Master Ninth is polite, I'm just doing my best to wait..."

"For you, it's an effort, but for me, it's a gift of life. Xiaojiu is also the love of his parents, and the treasure in his palm. This time he fell into the water and scared his father. What's the accident, how should the parents be sad? Pain. You are my benefactors."

Seeing him being so serious, the boss didn't know what to say.

"Uh... Are you feeling better? Why didn't you go to bed and go out so soon?"

"I'm already much better, and my health is not much more likely. I'll be fine in a few days. My father said that for the savior, he must meet and thank him in person to be sincere."

Pei Xiu took over the words and said with a smile, "These are all empty courtesy. Master Shen should let the ninth young master have a good rest. The body is the most important thing. It doesn't matter when you thank him."

Uncle Shen patted Xiaojiu's head and said, "The doctor also said that he can get out of bed and walk around, he doesn't have to rest in bed, it's better to do some exercise, not to mention that we have delayed coming to the door very late to thank him. Shen has been patrolling the surrounding shops. , I just returned to Beijing three days ago, and only after hearing the report from the housekeeper, did I hand over the post, which is really embarrassing."

"It's okay, we don't talk about these false rituals."

Uncle Shen smiled again and said, "I haven't congratulated Mrs. Zhou yet. Ruyang City has won the victory and the first piece of land has been recovered. Lord Zhou is really brave and resourceful. , Thirty years Hedong, thirty years Hexi, this is true at all."

Pei Xiu also smiled: "Thanks to Uncle Shen for taking care of us at the beginning, when we were in the country, we sent our prey to Zuixianglou, and the shopkeeper gave us a good price in your favor, so we can be safe in the country. Live the day."

"This is just a trivial matter, and Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou don't have to take it to heart. You have come to terms with all your hardships. There is still a great future waiting for Lord Zhou.

Uncle Shen is very talkative,

Hearing what he said makes me happy.

She laughed and shook her head, "The Shen family has a great business and prosperity, and Uncle Shen is worrying too much."

"I borrowed my wife's auspicious words. The child's name is Shen Huaitang, and he is the ninth member of the family. When he recovers, he will be sent to Yunzhong Academy to study. At that time, I will trouble Young Master Zhou to take care of him."

Pei Xiu thought it was strange that the base of the Shen family was in Yanyun Prefecture, so why did he suddenly put his youngest son in the capital to study?

But it's nothing, it's just a turn of the younger generation, she nodded: "They just went to the Yunzhong Academy not long ago, so it's not like taking care of each other, but they can take care of each other."

"Thank you very much. There is also a gift here for Princess Xuexi. The servant said that you were also present, and originally wanted the Zhou family to hand it over. It would be great to see you today, please accept it. "

After he finished speaking, he asked the servants to deliver another gift to Princess Xuexi.

Princess Xuexi was surprised, "Ah, I have it too, I didn't do anything."

"You are with the young master of the Zhou family, and they are both present. It must be your share. Mr. Shen from Zhang Shilang's house also sent a gift."

After he finished speaking, he said goodbye to Pei Xiu without waiting for Princess Xuexi to refuse, "I have been disturbed for a long time today, so Shen will leave first, and when Lord Zhou returns, Shen will come to congratulate him again."

She got up and gave a salute, "Okay, let's borrow Uncle Shen's auspicious words, and the housekeeper will send Uncle Shen and his son out."

After the three brothers and others walked away, they all gathered around Princess Xuexi without looking at the generous gifts they received.

The boss said rudely: "Do you count as having a share in the sight, and you have touched our light."

Caiwei smiled and said, "This Shen family is really impeccable in their work. No wonder they started their business by raising horses, and their business can grow bigger and bigger."

Pei Xiu also felt that, not only because of their presence, but also because of their identities, they wanted to form a good relationship. Anyway, the Shen family was not bad for money.

"I've made a fortune now. I'll invite you to eat delicious food later. You can order whatever you want. Zhuangyuan Lou Zuixianlou is up to you to choose."

Princess Xuexi was also really surprised, and said arrogantly, it was an unexpected wealth anyway, and he happily borrowed flowers to offer Buddha.

"Okay, you are the richest anyway. Today, everyone is open to eat, but it's a pity that Zhou Shan has no luck."

"We can pack it for him. The duck in our neighborhood is absolutely delicious. He must have never eaten it. We will pack two for him later."

"We can eat duck later, and then have a big meal in the afternoon," the third child told his mother, "Mother, tell the kitchen not to cook our meals at night."

"understood."

"It's me who paid, why don't you ask my opinion? Don't you get tired of eating roast duck every three days?"

The second child: "That's you. We only ate it once. We didn't eat it twice every three days. It's not greasy, and we all love to eat meat, eat meat, and grow taller!"

Princess Xuexi rolled her eyes, then she would just eat the duck's head and duck's claws. She learned badly from them, and rolled her eyes to learn it.

"Let's take it apart and see what's there?"
