After Si Mu left, Ninth Uncle looked at Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai with a gloomy face.
Chu Jiang knew that these two unreliable fellows were going to suffer. He couldn't just leave them in the lurch after being brothers. Hence, he gave Qiu Sheng a fierce look."It's already so late. Why aren't you going back? When that time comes, your aunt will come looking for you again.”
Qiu Sheng was quite smart. He glanced at Ninth Uncle carefully. Seeing that his master didn't say anything, he quickly ran away.
"Senior Brother, you should go to sleep too." Chu Jiang smiled and shook his head when he saw Wen Cai standing there with a dispirited expression, waiting to be scolded.
When Wen Cai heard this, he felt like he had been pardoned and ran away.
"These two fellows are too disappointing. If they were half as calm as you, I wouldn't have to worry so much.”Ninth Uncle sighed and said to Chu Jiang.
"Master, you don't have to be angry with them. The two senior brothers are still childish, so it's not necessarily a bad thing.”Chu Jiang consoled.
"What do you mean by childlike innocence?”Ninth Uncle pursed his lips and said," Tomorrow, follow me to town. Old Master Ren has something to discuss with us."”
"Alright."
……
The next morning, Chu Jiang followed Ninth Uncle to town.
Wen Cai also followed him like a stalker.
Along the way, people greeted Ninth Uncle, and Ninth Uncle returned the greetings one by one.
In this area, Ninth Uncle's name was still very famous.
"Chu Jiang, when you were overseas, did you often drink foreign tea? People who had drunk it said that it was black and bitter.”Ninth Uncle whispered to Chu Jiang beside him.
"Master, you're talking about coffee, right? I drink that stuff often." Chu Jiang said.
"That's good." Ninth Uncle nodded, and his worried heart relaxed.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the only coffee shop in town.
"Hello, have the three of you made reservations?" A waiter in a suit asked with a smile.
Ninth Uncle was stunned for a moment.
Chu Jiang stepped forward and smiled.”
"Oh, upstairs. Please follow me.”the waiter said.
When the few of them arrived on the second floor, Chu Jiang's gaze swept across the room and immediately locked onto Old Master Ren. He looked exactly like the one in the movie.
The three of them sat down and exchanged a few pleasantries. Then, they heard footsteps coming from the stairs.
"Look who's here." Old Master Ren smiled.
Wen Cai quickly turned around and saw that it was a great beauty. He was immediately stunned.
Who else could it be? It was naturally Ren Tingting.
Seeing Ren Tingting walk over, Wen Cai hurriedly stood up. His eyes were already firmly attracted by the scenery on Ren Tingting's chest.
"Daddy!" Ren Tingting called out sweetly to Old Master Ren.
Old Master Ren waved his hand and she walked over to sit in Wen Cai's seat.
"You're already so big." Ninth Uncle looked at Ren Tingting and sighed.
"It is very big." Wen Cai, who was standing behind Ninth Uncle, said this famous line.
Chu Jiang almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
This Wencai was really a simple-minded person. He was quite cute sometimes.
Ren Tingting glared at Wen Cai and almost said," Stinky hooligan."
Fortunately, a waiter came over with a menu and slightly eased the awkward atmosphere.
"Ninth Uncle, what would you like to drink?”Old Master Ren said.
"Just a cup of coffee for each of us.”Chu Jiang said.
"I want coffee!" Ren Tingting said to the waiter.
"Chu Jiang, I don't want any coffee. I want the same coffee as Miss Ren."”
"Pfft ~" Ren Tingting covered her mouth, but she still laughed out loud.
"Coffee is the English name for coffee.”
"I see." Wen Cai scratched his head awkwardly.
Ninth Uncle glared fiercely at Wen Cai. He felt that this disciple had lost all his old face. He really wished he could find a crack in the ground and bury him directly.
Old Master Ren did not seem to mind. He said to Ninth Uncle,"Ninth Uncle, have you picked a date for my late father's coffin? Back then, the Feng Shui master had said that the coffin must be lifted after twenty years.”
Uncle Nine pondered for a moment and said,"I didn't suggest that you move easily, but you've made up your mind. I won't say anything else!" Let's set it for three days later."
"Alright, then what do you think I need to prepare?”Old Master Ren said.
What happened next was the same as the movie, until Old Master Ren was called away by the waiter.
Soon, the coffee was served.
Chu Jiang skillfully poured milk and sugar into the coffee, then slowly stirred it evenly with a spoon.
Ninth Uncle and Wen Cai naturally followed suit and escaped the fate of being pranked by Ren Tingting.
"Have you studied abroad?" Ren Tingting looked at Chu Jiang curiously.
Knowing English and being familiar with coffee, Ren Tingting could only think of studying abroad.
"Yes, I came back from overseas a year ago.”Chu Jiang took a sip of coffee and said.
"Then do you know how foreigners put on makeup?”Ren Tingting asked. She was indeed very interested in makeup.
"Not all the things from the foreigners are better than ours. As far as I know, many of the cosmetics they use are poisonous. Long-term use will damage the skin and accelerate aging. I suggest that you still use the rouge powder invented by our ancestors. I dare not say that it is better than the cosmetics of foreigners, but at least it is non-toxic and can be used with peace of mind.”
Chu Jiang's words stunned Ren Tingting.
However, what Chu Jiang said was not a lie. In this era, many cosmetics used by Westerners generally contained mercury, which was highly toxic.
When Old Master Ren returned, Ren Tingting immediately stood up and said,""Dad, I'm going to buy some rouge.”
With that, he left.
Wen Cai, who had a wretched look on his face, also followed.
When Chu Jiang saw this, he found it funny.
He, Ninth Uncle, and Old Master Ren left the coffee shop after they finished talking about moving the coffin.
On the way, he met the angry Ren Tingting, and Old Master Ren quickly chased after her.
"What happened?" Ninth Uncle grabbed Wen Cai.
Wen Cai mimicked a chicken jokingly.
"Loser." Ninth Uncle cursed and slapped him into Happy Red Courtyard.
Chu Jiang was really satisfied with this scene. It was much better than watching a movie.
