The next morning, Zhang Lang woke up early. He opened the door and went to the courtyard, only to find that Ninth Uncle was washing up in the courtyard earlier.
"Ninth Uncle, good morning." Zhang Lang greeted Ninth Uncle and asked,""Where's Wencai?"
"Wencai is cooking in the kitchen?" "Fellow Daoist, did you sleep well last night?" Ninth Uncle asked.”
" Very good. Thank you for your hospitality, Ninth Uncle," Zhang Lang said.
" That's good," Ninth Uncle said." What are your plans today?"”
" I'll report to the security team in town first and see if there are any houses for rent so that I can have a place to stay." Zhang Lang told her what he had thought about last night. Although he also wanted to stay in Ninth Uncle's mortuary for a while, he knew it was impossible. He could stay for a short time, but if he wanted to stay for a long time, Ninth Uncle might not agree if he was not related to Ninth Uncle.
" That's good. Wencai and I are going to town later. We'll go together after dinner," Ninth Uncle said.
" It's time to eat." At this moment, Wen Cai brought breakfast into the living room and loudly greeted Ninth Uncle and Zhang Lang.
" Come, let's eat first," Ninth Uncle said and led Zhang Lang to the living room.
Zhang Lang entered the living room and sat down with Ninth Uncle. He looked at the breakfast on the dining table: steamed buns, porridge, and pickles.
" This Ninth Uncle's life is really difficult," Zhang Lang thought to himself, but he still scooped a bowl of porridge, took a steamed bun, and ate it with salted vegetables.
"Ninth Uncle, why are you going to town later?”Zhang Lang asked curiously.
" Master Ren of the town wants to invite Ninth Uncle to drink Western tea," Wen Cai said excitedly before Ninth Uncle could speak.
" I see," Zhang Lang thought to himself, but he said jokingly,""No wonder Ninth Uncle and Wen Cai are dressed so new today.”
Wen Cai was embarrassed by Zhang Lang's words and quickly changed the topic."Mr. Zhang, do you know how to drink foreign tea? I haven't tried foreign tea before."
" Yes, I have." Zhang Lang smiled." Actually, foreign tea is not called foreign tea. It's called coffee. It's a little bitter. You have to add sugar and milk when you drink it. It's not as delicious as our Chinese tea. I still have some more precious tea leaves. I can let Ninth Uncle taste them later."”
" Mr. Zhang, since you've tasted foreign tea before, why don't you come with us?" Wen Cai invited Mr. Zhang.
Zhang Lang hesitated for a moment before continuing,""Then will Old Master Ren be unhappy?”
" It's fine. When the time comes, just say that you're my master's new disciple,""Right, Master?"
Ninth Uncle glared at Wen Cai and said,""Little friend, if you're interested, let's go together.”
Ninth Uncle said this, but he thought to himself,"It just so happens that Wencai and I haven't drunk foreign tea before. Bring Zhang Lang along. When the time comes, we can learn from him and not make a fool of ourselves.”
" Alright, Ninth Uncle, I won't refuse," Zhang Lang said with a smile. When he heard that Wen Cai was Ninth Uncle's disciple, Zhang Lang was quite moved.
The three of them dressed up neatly, ate breakfast, and went out in the direction of the town.
When they arrived at the town, many people on the street were familiar with Ninth Uncle and kept greeting him. It was not difficult to see that Ninth Uncle had a high prestige in the town.
Yunlai Teahouse was the teahouse that Ninth Uncle and Ren Fa had agreed on. Although it was still early, there were already many customers in the teahouse.
"May I ask if you have reserved a table?”The waiter immediately came over to greet Ninth Uncle.
Ninth Uncle was stunned and answered honestly,""No, I haven't."
Wen Cai, who was beside him, immediately shouted,"Why? Didn't Ren Fa book a table for us?”
The waiter suddenly understood and immediately smiled."So you're Old Master Ren's guest. Please follow me.”
After they reached the second floor, the waiter led them to a table with a fat middle-aged man. It must be Ren Fa.
Ren Fa immediately stood up and greeted Ninth Uncle respectfully.""Ninth Uncle, you're here. Please sit down.”
Ninth Uncle nodded and replied,"Hello, Old Master Ren."”
Zhang Lang and Wen Cai also followed Ninth Uncle to greet Ren Fa, and everyone took the opportunity to sit down.
As for Zhang Lang and Wen Cai, Ren Fa only glanced at them and stopped paying attention to them. Ninth Uncle was the main character today.
"I heard that your daughter has returned from the provincial capital. Why didn't you invite her along?”Ninth Uncle asked curiously.
Hearing Ninth Uncle mention his daughter, Ren Fa immediately beamed with joy and explained with a smile,""This girl has just learned how to put on makeup, but she went around teaching people as soon as she came back.”
" She looks like a steamed bun. Her daughter can't be that pretty either," Wen Cai rolled his eyes and muttered softly.
At this moment, Ren Fa smiled and said to Ninth Uncle,""Look, my daughter is here."
Everyone immediately followed Ren Fa's finger and looked at the staircase. Suddenly, a woman in a pink low-cut dress walked over step by step from the staircase. She had her hair braided and carried a small bag. She wore a sun hat and her snow-white skin was so soft that it looked like it would break. She looked extremely delicate.
According to the Western dressing style of this era, her clothes were quite revealing. However, because of the blending of Chinese and Western cultures, no one thought much of it.
The girl came to Ren Fa and immediately grabbed his sleeve, shouting coquettishly,""Daddy."
Wen Cai's eyes immediately widened. He involuntarily stood up from his seat and stared at the young girl like a fool.
Ren Fa looked at the girl and then at Ninth Uncle. He introduced,""This is my precious daughter, Tingting. Her name is Ninth Uncle.”
"Ninth Uncle!" Tingting was obedient.
Ninth Uncle couldn't help but sigh and say,""You're already so big. Sit!"
Ren Tingting smiled and found a stool to sit beside Ren Fa.
At this moment, Wen Cai laughed foolishly." It's really big."”
Ren Tingting naturally noticed that his gaze was fixed on the girl and immediately glared at Wen Cai in dissatisfaction.
Wen Cai looked like he hadn't seen a woman in 800 years. It was really embarrassing. Zhang couldn't stand it anymore. He pulled Wen Cai and smiled."It's still white!"
Old Master Ren waved his hand,"Sit, sit!"
Wen Cai sat down honestly and impolitely, still staring straight at Ren Tingting. How could he still remember Ninth Uncle's previous instructions?
Ninth Uncle was stunned. He shouted softly,"Wencai!"
However, the current Wen Cai no longer had any regard for Ninth Uncle.
At this moment, the waiter handed Ren Tingting a menu.
