Chapter 777 The best friend of the reborn daughter of the Duke's Mansion (48)
After Zhou Tianyu and Su Xiangran finished shopping, they got on the carriage together and headed out of the city.
In the carriage, Zhou Tianyu looked at Su Xiangran and said with a smile: "Xiao Ran, eat more of this cake. If you like it, even if you go to the farm in the future, will I let someone pass by?"
After saying that, he handed the box of snacks in his hand to Su Xiangran.
This thing is not cheap. A small piece costs only a few dollars, and it has to be served in a specially made wooden carved snack box, and the price is as high as one or two taels of silver.
However, this snack box is quite nice and can be used repeatedly.
If a customer makes a purchase for the first time, he or she can still use this box to pack snacks the next time he or she comes to buy snacks.
In addition, each type of dim sum has a corresponding dim sum box with different flower patterns on it.
Therefore, many wealthy families would try their best to collect all the snack boxes even if they think it is expensive.
In the past, when Su Xiangran attended banquets, she had seen many young ladies bring two or three boxes of snacks of different styles to the banquet and share these exquisite pastries with others.
Yin Caiwei was the one who was most enthusiastic about this. Once, she even brought seven boxes with her, which made everyone envious.
Thinking of this, Su Xiangran couldn't help but sigh: "This snack matches this box, but it's a pity that it's too expensive."
After hearing this, Zhou Tianyu smiled and said, "These are just some tricks. I just calculated the customer's mentality. If you like me, I will get you all the money."
"This is such a waste!" Su Xiangran shook her head. "Besides, I can't finish all these snacks, so it would be a waste to buy them back."
"This snack shop is owned by my cousin." Zhou Tianyu did not hide anything from Su Xiangran, "I also own a share. A few boxes is not a big deal."
This surprised Su Xiangran: "That's the Baili family's shop, right? Do you have any history with them?"
"My mother is from the Baili family." Zhou Tianyu said in a slightly depressed tone, "And she was in a high position back then, but she and my father died in an accident when they were out at sea."
Upon hearing this, Su Xiangran quickly said, "Brother Zhou, I'm sorry for being so presumptuous."
"It's okay. I have to tell you about this." Zhou Tianyu took the opportunity to carefully introduce the situation of the Zhou family to Su Xiangran.
Finally, he concluded: "Actually, even though I may seem like an agricultural official with an average salary, my family still has a lot of assets. Of course, I say this just to prove that I can provide you with a good life."
"I understand what you mean." Su Xiangran nodded, but couldn't help complaining in her heart: This guy likes this the most, showing off his strength and muscles right away, I'm afraid that I will think I have to live a hard life with him.
"So, Xiaoran, are you willing to give me a chance?" Zhou Tianyu suddenly said seriously, "If you agree, I will ask your parents for marriage."
"I..." Before Su Xiangran could answer, the carriage stopped.
The driver outside shouted, "Master, we have arrived at the Su family's farm. Miss Su can get off now."
After hearing this, Zhou Tianyu's expression froze. He took a deep breath and resisted the urge to curse. Then he looked at Su Xiangran pitifully.
Su Xiangran just smiled and didn't continue the previous topic, but she also said something ambiguous: "I'm only fourteen, and my coming-of-age ceremony will be held in two months."
After hearing this, Zhou Tianyu seemed to understand what the other party meant: he didn't refuse, but he didn't completely accept it either. He wanted to wait for two months and see.
"Then I'll wait for you." Zhou Tianyu turned back and said to Su Xiangran as he got out of the car.
That's how the words came out, but the person was not polite at all.
She refused the coachman's offer of a horse stool, stood beside the shaft, and reached out to Su Xiangran.
It’s up to the other person to choose whether to carry him/her down or to help him/her down.
In Su Xiangran's opinion: strictly speaking, she and this person are already an old couple, but every time they come to a new world, they seem to fall in love with each other all over again.
Love is like this, if you want it to last, you must always keep it fresh.
She put her hand on Zhou Tianyu's and let him help her get out of the carriage.
"Xiao Ran, you know where my farm is, but in order to make it easier for you to communicate with me about things in the fields, I have arranged a servant to wait at your farm. Just tell him if you have anything." Zhou Tianyu's eyes were full of anticipation, as if he was afraid that Su Xiangran would refuse.
Su Xiangran chuckled and said, "What about those potted plants you gave me before? Did you bring them this time?"
Zhou Tianyu was stunned, but he immediately said: "I brought it. I will send it to you tomorrow. It is growing well and some of it has even produced fruits."
"Then I'll wait for you tomorrow." Su Xiangran added, "Don't be too anxious. Just bring it to me after you finish your own things. There isn't much else on the farm, but there are lots of fresh ingredients. We can dine together."
Zhou Tianyu responded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay!"
At this time, Qing'e was already standing at the gate of the manor. After all, they had not been delayed along the way, so they naturally arrived earlier than Su Xiangran and the others.
