Chapter 197 Keep one hand
Everyone was surprised to see Ye Changyan leading Huang Jie out of the study. It hadn't even been an incense stick of time.
After observing for a while, everyone discovered that it seemed that only Ye Changyan and Huang Jie came out of the study. Just when everyone was puzzled, they heard Huang Jie's childish voice calling to Huang Huamin.
"Dad, Aunt Su wants to discuss something with you."
Ye Changyan was seen holding Huang Jie's hand, standing at the door of the study. Huang Huamin felt inexplicably excited when he heard his son's voice. He stood up, greeted everyone, and walked towards the study.
Everyone seemed to feel that Ye Changyan whispered something in Huang Huamin's ear, and then they saw Huang Huamin squatting down, picking up Huang Jie, nodding to Ye Changyan, and walking into the study.
During this time, Fang Xiaomei went to the study twice to deliver tea. It was not until the evening that Su Yu Niang and Huang Huamin came out of the study, looking a little tired. Huang Huamin was still holding the sleeping Huang Jie in his arms.
The Ye family’s dinner has been prepared. Although it is also a vegetarian meal, the dishes are somewhat different from those for lunch.
Wu Lang went to the old house specifically to invite everyone there to come for dinner, but he saw Xu and her eldest daughter helping Liu to cook the meal.
The old lady said that the meal at home was already cooked, so she would not go to the third room's house to eat.
Ye Xiaozheng felt a little disappointed when he saw Wulang coming back alone, but he still had a warm smile on his face in front of his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law.
After the meal, Zhong Dingyi, Huang Huamin and others said goodbye to the Ye family.
Ye Xiaozheng and Lian hurried forward to keep the guests.
"Although there is nothing in this yard, there are a few houses. As night is about to fall, let's stay here and rest for a night."
"Uncle, aunt, I have already arranged an inn in the county town. Boss Huang and his team have some business in the prefecture town, so they have to get up and go back to the prefecture town early tomorrow morning."
Huang Huamin, Yu and others nodded in agreement. Qiu Zhenkui and Su Yuniang also politely said goodbye to the Ye family and walked out of the courtyard gate.
Luo held Erniu's hand and said reluctantly.
"Erniu, this March 3rd, there will be a grand celebration in the city during the Shangsi Festival Peach Blossom Festival. When the time comes, ask your brother to bring your parents, your siblings, Mr. Cai, and Mr. Liang to come to the city to play. I'll have people clean up two courtyards in advance, and you can all stay at my house and have fun for two days."
Zhong Yunfeng looked at Erniu expectantly, but saw that Erniu looked shy and turned sideways to look at Ye Changyan.
Seeing Ye Changyan nodded at her, Erniu turned around, nodded at Luo, and agreed.
Everyone arrived at the gate of the yard. Qiu Zhenkui and Su Yuniang got on the carriage first. Su Yuniang lifted the curtain, but looked back at Ye Changyan with a meaningful expression.
Seeing Ye Changyan nodding at her, Su Yu Niang also nodded in response. Then she revealed a charming smile and got into the carriage.
"Brother Ye, you must remember to come to the city to see me. I have a lot of toys for you to play with when the time comes."
Huang Jie felt in his pocket and saw the Weihaojia candy that Ye Changyan had secretly stuffed into his pocket. He extended an invitation to Ye Changyan with an expectant look on his face.
"Okay, when my brother goes to the capital, he will definitely go and play with Xiaojie."
Huang Jie was filled with joy, and with the help of Yu, he stepped onto the horse stool and got into the carriage.
Seeing that Zhong Dingyi and Luo also got on their own carriage, Zhong Yunfeng sat down next to the coachman and saw the coachman driving the carriage towards the county town.
After seeing this group of people off, the Ye family members began to pack up the things they had moved in today.
Liang Jingcheng and Ye Changyan carried several large boxes of books to the study. They chatted while sorting the books.
"Why do I feel like Zhong Yunfeng's parents are here to visit?"
While arranging the pile of books in front of him, Liang Jingcheng cast a curious look at Ye Changyan.
"Can you see this?"
Ye Changyan asked Liang Jingcheng with interest.
"Don't underestimate me, I've been through this kind of thing many times!"
Liang Jingcheng was like a proud rooster, but when he saw Ye Changyan looking at him, there was a slightly obscene smile on his face.
"What's that expression on your face?"
Liang Jingcheng felt a little strange when he saw Ye Changyan's somewhat obscene expression, and then suddenly realized something.
"What are you thinking! When you brothers were seeing each other, I was still young, and Master's Wife would always bring me along. That situation is very similar to the situation today when Zhong Yunfeng's parents came to visit us."
"You have summed up your experience."
"No wonder I felt some of Zhong Yunfeng's actions were a little strange before."
"What's weird?"
"For example, during the Lantern Festival, when everyone was scattered, I saw Zhong Yunfeng immediately rushing towards the direction where Erniu and Fang Xiaomei disappeared, with anxiety and fear on his face."
"You looked carefully."
"But Zhong Yunfeng and Erniu seem to be a good match."
"How do you know they're a good match?"
Seeing Ye Changyan looking at him with suspicion, Liang Jingcheng looked very proud.
"Based on my experience of helping my senior brothers see each other so many times, I can still make such a judgment."
The two of them had a great time chatting about Zhong Yunfeng's parents coming to visit them.
It was not until the bookshelf near the door had been sorted out that Liang Jingcheng changed the subject.
"How was the conversation with the two managers of Lihuaxiang and Fuyuzhen today? I saw that they both looked very capable, especially Boss Su. As a woman, she was able to become the manager of a Yanzhilou, a large-scale company with a complicated background like Fuyuzhen at such a young age. It would be difficult to do it without some skills and tricks."
Seeing Liang Jingcheng's concerned look, Ye Changyan smiled at him with a relaxed look.
"In fact, both Huang Huamin and Zhong Yunfeng over-complicated the matter between Qiu Zhenkui and Su Yuniang."
Liang Jingcheng looked at Ye Changyan with a puzzled look.
"My idea is very simple. At present, the candies and pure water perfumes of Wei Hao Jia are both unique businesses. As long as we control the key of supply, other things can be discussed easily."
Liang Jingcheng seemed to be thinking about something, and then he listened to Ye Changyan continue talking.
"What Qiu Zhenkui and Su Yuniang want most is probably to get the recipe. When they have no hope of getting the recipe, they will want to control the supply as much as possible. Therefore, by controlling the supply, the initiative of the negotiation is in our hands. After I explained these key points and the goals we want to achieve to Zhong Yunfeng and Huang Huamin, I asked Zhong Yunfeng and Huang Huamin to negotiate with Qiu Zhenkui and Su Yuniang, and the result was in line with my expectations."
"The hydrosol and perfume are all made by a few people in my family, and other people may not understand the principle of the distiller. The possibility of the hydrosol and perfume recipe being leaked is very small, but the processing workshop has a complex personnel system, so it is inevitable that someone will secretly steal the production process and start a new business."
"Indeed, it is not easy to plagiarize these hydrosols and perfumes because the tools and processes required are relatively complicated, plus there are issues with the proportion of the perfumes. Just to prevent them from spoiling, if there is even the slightest flaw in any link, the hydrosols and perfumes produced will have problems after a few days."
Liang Jingcheng had witnessed the process of distilling pure water and had helped Ye Changyan mix perfumes many times. He also agreed with this point.
Liang Jingcheng nodded at Ye Changyan, but saw Ye Changyan giving a wicked smile.
"As for this delicious candy, I kept some in reserve before the processing workshop started production."
