叶初棠出门相迎。

看到那位身着褚色锦衣精神矍铄的老者,她的脸上扬起笑意。

“尹老,您来了。”

尹绍亭左右环顾一圈,忍不住轻啧。

“这段时间,你就待在这?不觉得无趣儿?”

飞云寺并非寻常地所,太宗皇帝曾在这里祈福祭拜,历任主持都是德高望重的大师,地位尊崇。

一般人想来,还未必能进得来这后面的居室。

尹绍亭这话不可谓不大胆,不过他这人生性潇洒自在,放肆不羁,是最不在意那些规矩之人,叶初棠早习惯他如此,故而听了他这般说,也只是笑着应了。

“佛门清净,倒是难得静心。”

尹绍亭不知想起什么,哈哈一笑,揶揄道:“也是!自你回京,这应该是最清闲的日子了吧?”

笑谈之间,明显对叶初棠回京之后的遭遇一清二楚,甚至还有几分幸灾乐祸。

“老夫之前怎么跟你说的来着?让你别回来,省得惹一身腥!你不听,看看,现在是个什么样?”

叶初棠请他入了座,桌上是摆好的茶具,隐约还有一丝茶叶的清香溢出。

知道他今日要来,她一早便备好了茶。

尹绍亭垂眸看了一眼,十分可惜:“你说你非要来这,连个正经茶叶都没有,白瞎了你那好手艺。”

他想喝叶初棠亲自沏的茶想很久了,只是先前她一直忙着,他也就没好登门。

如今好不容易见到了人,条件却如此简陋!实在可恶!

叶初棠毫不介意,为他斟好茶,看着那清亮茶水中漂浮的嫩叶,这才不紧不慢开口:
“您今日来,就为了挑这一口?”

尹绍亭一噎。

他又抬眼看了叶初棠一眼,哼了声:“说你聪明,你不撞南墙不回头,非要趟这浑水,可要说你愚钝,倒是天生生就了一颗七窍玲珑心,什么都瞒不过你!”

他第一次见叶初棠,就知道这女子是个极其聪慧的。

许多东西一点就通,还能举一反三,仿佛没有什么事儿能让她慌乱,一切的一切,都一直在她的掌控之中。

无论是她回京的时节,还是这之后发生的种种。

叶初棠笑而不语,耐心等他开口。

尹绍亭终于还是按捺不住,端起茶杯:“你那些个铺子,现在都渐渐做起来了。”

“哦?”叶初棠尾音上扬,似是惊讶,然而眼底波澜不惊,显然对这一切早有预料。

尹绍亭也没和她绕弯子,将这段时日京中的情况都说了说。

“茶庄自不必说,有唐仲礼打头,多的是文人学子追随。倒是另外几个铺面,情况比预想的还要好上许多。”

提起这一茬,尹绍亭也啧啧称奇。

虽然他和叶初棠相识许久,可之前他还真没太看出来,她竟还是经商的一把好手。

叶初棠温声一笑:“说来,还得多谢您推荐的那几位掌柜,若没他们尽心操持,估计我那些铺子还得继续做赔本生意。”

就连阿言和阿风也不知道,她当初贴了招人的告示出去,其实只是走个过场。

——她早有相中的得力之人。

Author:

Heir of a traditional medical family, Ye Chutang rolled through life for a lifetime, only to unexpectedly die just as she was about to inherit. Reborn, she only wanted to be a slacker and live a carefree life. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, she suffered a critical blow: her parents and eldest brother were assassinated, leaving her with three younger siblings. The third brother was seriously injured, the fourth brother was in a coma, and there was also a baby crying for milk. She weighed the cold steamed bun in her hand, looked despairingly at the sky, and thought that managing three at once was worse than starting over. The little baby tugged at her pant leg. "Hungry." Ye Chutang: "..." Get up and work! ...Ye Chutang’s plan was perfect; once she raised the children, she could retire and enjoy her later years. Yet, a man had different intentions. "Miss Ye, after all these years, shouldn't there be an explanation?" Ye Chutang: "6." You used to linger at my doorstep and now it’s my fault? ... The Ye family was impressive: Ye Sanlang was the top scholar of the current dynasty, Ye Si-lang had made great military achievements in the northwest, and Ye Wu girl had a commercial empire rivaling the rich and powerful. Only Ye Er-girl was busy raising her younger siblings, unknowingly aging and facing difficulties in marriage. Until one day, the powerful Duke of Dingbei, Shen Yanchaun, arrived with a bridal procession ten miles long to welcome her. Ye Chutang remained silent for a long time. "This time, you take care of the kids."
