Xu Miaoyun did not expect Chen Shu to suddenly open his eyes.
She was shocked and froze there like a shrimp thrown into boiling water. She curled up and her body was red.
He was going to die!
This damned master, wasn't he drunk?
A certain someone was holding an old jar of pickled cabbage noodles and standing there in fear.
Chen Shu looked at Xu Sanjia's daughter and felt that she was inexplicably cute.
He didn't know what was going on in his head, but he suddenly poked his head out and gave Xu Miaoyun a kiss on her lips.
Xu Miaoyun's pupils dilated as she was dumbfounded.
Immediately, her tears fell. The daughter of the Xu family cried.
"F * ck, I'm sick!"
When Chen Shuqin went over, he regretted it.
Didn't they agree to flirt with girls after Xu San's debt was settled?
If he confirmed his relationship with the Xu family's girl, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?
Who had ever seen someone force their father-in-law to pay a debt?
No, no, I can't delay my collection business because of a woman.
Chen Shu felt a headache when he saw Xu Miaoyun crying.
Suddenly taking advantage of someone else's daughter was a little too much.
Furthermore, the Ming Dynasty had a strict code of conduct.
Many young ladies from wealthy families might not even have seen a man before they got married.
Although the daughter of the Xu family was slightly better, Chen Shu's current method was still too much.
In a flash, Chen Shu thought of a way. He stood up and then lay down.
Pretending to be dead.
"Master?"
"Master?"
Xu Miaoyun cried for a long time. When she realized that this person had kissed her, she turned over and went to sleep.
Was he drunk?
He didn't know anything?
Looking at Chen Shu who was snoring like thunder, Xu Miaoyun secretly rejoiced.
If he really kissed her, how awkward would that be?
Should he slash this lecher?
No, even if it was unintentional, he couldn't let this bastard off easily.
Xu Miaoyun looked at Chen Shu angrily. In the end, she found a cloak and covered him with it.
The cloak was a little slippery. Xu Miaoyun had just covered Chen Shu with it when it almost slipped. Chen Shu grabbed it without leaving a trace and covered it back.
The daughter of the Xu family turned around and happened to see this scene.
She was furious. This guy was indeed pretending to be asleep.
"Just you wait!"
Xu Miaoyun's shyness, which had just faded, surged into her heart again.
Along with her shyness was a towering rage.
However, the Xu family's girl did not make a sound. Instead, she kept this hatred in her heart.
Chen Shu waited for the Xu family's girl to leave before heaving a sigh of relief.
"I almost delayed the collection because of my love affair!”
"I'm looking forward to Xu San's reward after he pays his debt!”
Chen Shu was very glad that he reacted quickly and resolved the awkwardness.
He was drunk and continued to sleep.
……
"Master, the young master of the Zhu family is here to look for you!"
Chen Shu slept until the sun was high in the sky.
He only woke up slowly when Xu Miaoyun came to call for him.
When he heard that Zhu Biao was coming to find him, he quickly got up.
When Xu Miaoyun handed him a willow branch and a cup of salt water, Chen Shu brushed his teeth and instructed,"
"Go buy some rice and noodles today. We can't be without food at home!”
"Also, find a few cooks and servants, but let them live in the front yard!”
"In the backyard, no one is allowed to enter except for you and me!”
"Yes, Master!"
The Xu family's girl's face was still slightly red, and Chen Shu was also slightly embarrassed.
However, the two of them were playing dumb, and the matter passed just like that.
Chen Shu came to the hall where the guests were received. Zhu Biao was sitting there waiting in his official robe.
"Brother Zhu, you've already taken up your post at the Ministry of Revenue?”
"Yes, thank you for your guidance, Brother Chen. I barely passed my superior's assessment!”
Zhu Biao looked at Xu Miaoyun, who came in with two cups of tea. He was very obedient.
The two actors had a tacit understanding and pretended not to know each other.
After the two of them sat down, Xu Miaoyun stood quietly in the corner.
Zhu Biao felt a little awkward being stared at by Sister Xu, but he still braced himself and continued the topic from yesterday.
"Brother Chen, you said you wanted me to pay attention to something!”
"I don't have any leads at the moment. There are hundreds and thousands of officials in the Imperial Court, and that's not counting the generals stationed outside!”
"Zhu Da, Li Er, and Liu Wu are really not easy to find!”
"I'm really sorry that I can't help Brother Chen with this matter!“
"Puff!"
Xu Miaoyun couldn't help but laugh after Zhu Biao finished his sentence.
If Chen Shu asked Zhu Biao to find a deadbeat for him, would he be asking a thief to catch a thief?
It would be strange if Zhu Biao could find it.
Chen Shu glared at Xu Miaoyun. This girl was so rude.
He smiled at Zhu Biao and said,"It's okay. I can draw their portraits for you!"”
"Xu girl, bring me a pen!”
"Pencils!"
"Yes, Master!"
Xu Miaoyun rolled her eyes and went to the study room to take out the pencil that Chen Shu had left behind.
"Brother Chen, what are you doing?”
"What is this?"
Zhu Biao was immediately attracted by Xu Miaoyun's pen.
This brush seemed to be different from the ones they usually used.
Chen Shu used a knife to cut off the outer layer of wood, revealing a black pen core.
Chen Shu handed a pen to Zhu Biao and smiled."
"This is a small toy I made myself, a pencil!”
"I remembered that it would be troublesome to bring a writing brush out, so I made this little thing!”
"This thing is not elegant!”
The toy in Chen Shu's eyes caused a huge commotion in Zhu Biao's hands.
He tried to write a few words on the paper with a pencil. Although it was strange to hold the pen, the words he wrote were not as good as the calligraphy.
However, as the crown prince of the empire, he quickly realized the value of the tools in his hands.
Writing with this thing was many times faster than writing with a brush.
Moreover, it was convenient to carry around. He did not need to be like other scholars who had to have a servant and someone to grind ink!
If the pencil could be popularized in Great Ming, then the administrative efficiency of the officials would probably…
It would increase to a terrifying level.
"Is this the effect of the technique?"
Zhu Biao recalled Chen Shu's discussion of Dao and techniques last night.
Spells were small techniques, but they could also change the world at key points.
The small pencil in Chen Shu's hand seemed to confirm his reasoning.
"Brother Chen, as expected, you always give people surprises when you're not paying attention!”
"I don't know if Brother Chen still has a lot of these pens, I'll take a few back to study!”
"Sure!"
Chen Shu had been rewarded with many pens by the system over the years, and they were all in packs.
He asked Xu Miaoyun to give Zhu Biao one, and Zhu Biao put it away carefully.
Then, he looked at Chen Shu and used a piece of wood to add up the paper, as if he was about to start painting.
"There's such a magical painting method?”
When Chen Shu's pencil drew lines on the white paper, Zhu Biao didn't feel anything.
However, when the lines turned into light and shadow, and the light and shadow formed a portrait.
Zhu Biao and Xu Miaoyun's expressions changed drastically.
