Chapter 1122: Chapter 1121: Sending an Invitation

Ye Qiu invited Louise’s parents to start having hot pot, accompanied by the local red wine.

In the Gauthier family, because they have professional chefs, Louise’s parents usually eat nutritious meals, with guidelines on what should and shouldn’t be eaten.

In contrast, they rarely eat something like hot pot.

The middle-aged couple had just tasted the perfectly mixed sauces, along with the fresh meat and vegetables here, and discovered it was indeed very different.

“It’s very delicious.”

Gauthier Denis said in not-so-fluent Huaxia language.

“Uncle, Auntie, eat more if you like it.”

“This wine is also very good.”

At noon, they had already tasted it, and now tasting it again, they found that the taste of this red wine was the essence of all red wine.

They had drunk many grades of Lafite before, but this was the first time they tasted wine better than Lafite.

Ye Qiu smiled without saying anything.

After finishing the hot pot with red wine, it was already past nine at night.

When the Gauthier couple went upstairs to rest, Wang Leshan and Wang Xiaoling also felt full, as did Louise and Zhou Wenting.

At this time, Louise’s phone rang, it was a call from Housekeeper Ivan.

“Housekeeper Ivan, this is Louise.”

“Viscountess Louise, Count Charley has just tasted the red wine, and he said it’s very good and would like to buy a batch from Dr. Ye.”

Housekeeper Ivan said from the other side.

Without drinking, they wouldn’t have known, but once tasted, it really startled Housekeeper Ivan and Count Charley. They never expected the wine Ye Qiu had brewed to be so delicious.

It far exceeded the taste of top-grade Lafite red wine, so Count Charley wanted to buy a batch, whether for collection or tasting.

“Housekeeper Ivan, I’ll talk to Dr. Ye about it.”

“Okay, Viscountess Louise, please pass along Count Charley’s compliments on Dr. Ye’s wine.”

After they hung up, Louise came to Ye Qiu’s side, looked at Ye Qiu, and said, “Qiu, you have business coming.”

“What business?”

“Housekeeper Ivan just called to say that he and Count Charley have tasted your red wine; they said it’s excellent, and Count Charley wants to buy a batch.”

“That’s indeed business coming.”

Ye Qiu didn’t expect that the first buyer would be Count Charley.

As Ye Qiu and Louise were heading upstairs, he prepared to write those invitations, then send them to Count Charley, and have him help distribute them.

Most of the prestigious guests at Count Charley’s upcoming banquet were known to Ye Qiu.

However, some were still unclear.

He now prepared a hundred invitation slots, but how many would attend, he did not know.

Like Farm Archbishop Augusta, Madam Emile, Old Clyde, Armand, Amanda, and so on.

Ye Qiu had Housekeeper Eugene prepare the best pen for him, while Louise stood by watching Ye Qiu write the invitations.

Ye Qiu’s French was very fluent, and his French handwriting was also remarkably beautiful.

Previously, Ye Qiu had written for Housekeeper Eugene, so now, he ensured there wouldn’t be a single error.

He wrote down the invitee’s name, status title, such as government positions, financial group status, even company positions, and finally the noble titles.

Although French titles are now honorary, writing them makes the invitation look better.

In the middle, he wrote the purpose of the invitation, like this time’s purpose was for the wine-tasting social, the location of the banquet, and finally added his signature.

After writing everything correctly, he dried and set them aside.

Having written a total of a hundred, Louise looked them over, confirmed there were no issues, and had Housekeeper Eugene send someone to deliver them to Count Charley, asking him to help distribute them, starting the wine-tasting banquet the evening after next.

Looking at the late night outside, Ye Qiu said, “Louise, you should also go back and rest, and tomorrow accompany your parents around the estate.”

“Qiu, I’ll head back then.”

After Louise left with a fragrant breeze, Ye Qiu took his clothes to the bathroom to comfortably take a hot shower.

Upon returning to his room, as the night was overcast with no moonlight, it wasn’t productive to cultivate, so he prepared for a deep sleep.

Unexpectedly, he heard a knock at the door.

Could it be Louise?

Upon opening the door, unexpectedly it was Wang Leshan, dressed in a lovely nightgown.

“May I come in?”

Wang Leshan asked.

“Come on in.”

Ye Qiu stepped aside, curious as to why Wang Leshan dared to come so late, wasn’t she afraid of being gossiped about by others.

Noting Ye Qiu’s gaze towards her, Wang Leshan’s expression remained the same.

“Are you wearing thermal pants?”

“Not thermal pants, it’s a nightgown, very warm.”

In Wang Leshan’s suitcase were a week’s worth of clothes, typically one change a day, to be brought back home for washing after a week.

Ye Qiu inquired, “Anything you need?”

“Not really, just came to chat with you.”

…

After Wang Leshan returned to her room, it was already past one in the morning.

Ye Qiu lay down for a deep sleep.

The next day, upon hearing knocking at the door, Ye Qiu woke up and got up to open it, finding the maid there, indicating breakfast was ready downstairs.

“I know.”

Without needing the maid to say more, Ye Qiu washed up, dressed, and went downstairs to find Louise, Zhou Wenting, Wang Leshan, and the Gauthier couple already there.

“Uncle, Auntie, did you sleep well last night?”

“Very well, very comfortable, the environment here is better than the city, and the air quality is much better too.”

This area is not industrialized, close to the sea, and mainly rural, indeed better than the city.

“Did you sleep well last night?”

Ye Qiu asked Wang Leshan and Wang Xiaoling.

Generally, it’s hard to sleep soundly in a new environment, but Wang Leshan had chatted with Ye Qiu for over an hour, by the time she returned to her room, Wang Xiaoling was already asleep.

Maybe because it was cold outside but warm inside with blankets, sleeping was indeed comfortable.

“Dr. Ye, we slept very comfortably.”

Wang Leshan said.

“Then let’s have breakfast, and afterward head out to see around.”

As the middle-aged couple and the maid brought breakfast to the table, there were both Huaxia and French breakfasts.

Ye Qiu and Zhou Wenting chose the Huaxia breakfast, while the Gauthier couple opted for the French breakfast, like French bread.
