Chapter 1690: Chapter 1687: Treating Guests
Tang Dongfeng had interacted with Chu Cai in the past and sowhat understood his temperant. He smiled and went along with it: “Then I won’t be polite, Second Brother Chu, this ti you ca, you’re indeed here to help share so worries.”
Ye Muyu was observing the production progress from the side without interrupting. If she really wanted to know sothing, she could easily ask a servant boy.
When Chu Cai heard this, he also got a bit excited: “Dongfeng, just tell directly, what can I do?”
“Actually, I brought five or six apprentices this ti.”
“Hahaha, Second Brother Chu, what we lack most in our workshop is manpower. Co and see, how do you find these semi-finished products? They shouldn’t be difficult for you, right?” Tang Dongfeng said directly.
Chu Cai moved in closer to take a detailed look, and shortly after, he nodded: “Not too difficult, just so simple carpentry work, only a few parts need special attention.”
“Yes, exactly, these pieces of wood are to be made into weaving machines. By then, we’ll definitely need you, Second Brother, to help out.”
“You can start by familiarizing yourself with how to source wood, and at other tis focus on making the weaving machines,” Tang Dongfeng clarified to him.
He ntioned so matters to pay attention to, especially the apprentices he brought along, who, once in the wood workshop, should not leave or contact their families within two months, among other regulations.
Chu Cai, having already heard about the usefulness of the new weaving machines, understood his aning early on, nodding repeatedly: “As it should be, I will inform my apprentices in advance about these.”
“If there’s anything Second Brother doesn’t understand, feel free to ask . This ti, we’re going to make a fortune.”
After hearing this, Chu Cai exhaled: “Exactly, with such good things, even our clothing will beco cheaper in the future.”
“Haha, Second Brother, I knew I wasn’t wrong about you.”
Ye Muyu saw the two chatting happily and decided not to intervene since Tang Dongfeng could definitely lead Chu Cai in the work.
She took a brief look at the progress and then returned to the house.
In the evening.
Ye Muyu went directly to Chu Cai’s house, while Chu Heng ca over straight from the yan.
He was still wearing his official attire.
Madam Wang warmly greeted them both, setting a wine pot on the table as well.
Ye Muyu rubbed her forehead, feeling a twinge of pain throughout her body at the sight of the wine pot.
Chu Heng approached and sat beside her.
While talking to Chu Cai, away from everyone’s view, he gently squeezed Ye Muyu’s fingers.
Ye Muyu tried to pull away, but Chu Heng didn’t give her the chance, holding tightly.
Fortunately, it was her left hand, otherwise, she’d have trouble eating, and anyone with eyes could see it.
Once most of the dishes were served, Chu Heng finally released her hand, and while Yumu let out a sigh of relief, she also turned her head to glare at him where no one else could see.
Chu Heng slightly curled his lips with a hint of a smile, diligently serving her food while drinking with Chu Cai, efficiently multitasking.
“Be careful not to drink too much tonight, you’re supposed to go to work tomorrow,” Madam Wang warned, seeing how Chu Cai couldn’t control his drinking once he got happy.
Chu Cai put down his wine cup, couldn’t help but grumble: “Aren’t I just keeping Third Brother company? I don’t get drunk so easily.”
Madam Wang: “Hehe.” Was it the dog that got drunk last night?
Chu Heng felt a small hand pinch his waist lightly, it didn’t hurt, instead, it felt like a tickle through a boot, prompting him to grasp her hand and gently rub it with his fingers until he saw her glaring angrily, and only then did he let go.
