Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 339, worrying about her mother's family

Li misses her husband so much that she asks her to tidy up her husband's things when she returns to her room. Sister Ting sleeps on the bed and counts the dates with her fingers. Her father, who was in charge of the Xinji market, vaguely mentioned at home the date when the canal will thaw. , a few days earlier this year, and a few days later last year, but that date is pretty much the same.

Sister You Ting used her small brains, desperately looking forward to the early thaw, so that she could pick up Sister Hui sooner.

She fell asleep in a trance, Li Shi packed up her bundle and tucked the quilt for her daughter, took out the last letter she recognized, and relive her memories under the candlelight.

". I'm all good, but I'm not the son of the prince who is serving me. I'm not at ease. The doubts gradually came to the son. He said that the officials are all serving the people, and you and I are all responsible for the negligence of the mansion. I retired sadly. Fortunately, the teacher is not to blame, the elder brother is not to blame, sister Xiu No wonder."

Li Shi didn't know many characters, but the letter written by You Zhen had a lot of classical Chinese. He knew that his second grandmother, Zhen Shi, could read it, and Zhen Shi taught Li Shi to memorize each word. difficulty.

The nature of the woman makes Li sigh every time she reads the letter: "Oh, I'm not working for sister Xiu and her son-in-law," and then want to serve Wang Shizi in a blink of an eye.
Li Shi happily read the letter, sighing and liking it at the same time.

The first month is passing by quickly, and there are lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first month. Relatives in the countryside go to Yuan’s house to pay New Year’s greetings and take a break. Yuan Cai’s parents can’t stop complaining, saying that their daughter is married for nothing, and the son-in-law is not at home for the New Year. , The in-laws didn’t even know how to move around, and the in-laws didn’t come to the door to deliver chickens during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Yuan Caigu’s parents thought about her son-in-law staying in Beijing, and said that she was angry and wanted to become an official. In order to meet each other in the future, they went to Shujia Village to pay New Year’s greetings.

"Cold tea, cold house, cold face, cold words and cold words, saying that the rich girl ran away, and it is unfilial not to serve her in-laws. It is really unreasonable. The rich girl should serve her husband, and her in-laws have to rely on them." The rich girl's mother was indignant .

Aunt Cai sighed sullenly: "It's not easy to support Aunt Cai, she even goes to school, and her aunt's house even made silver jewelry for her to wear, and now it's all cheap for the white-eyed wolf of the Shu family."

The relatives were sympathetic, but also ridiculed: "The son-in-law of an official is not easy to marry. If I had known today, it would be better to marry the rich girl to the one with a lot of gifts. You can also buy an extra mu of land and enjoy it at the end of the year."

Zhen's flustered more and more when she heard the rural language.

She heard the words that the son-in-law of an official is not easy to marry, and what she worried about most was that her daughter would influence sister Xiu. Wencai, I have to take Sister Hui back quickly, and we can't let her continue to make jokes in Beijing.

Outside Yanyan's shop, He Ning, who came back yesterday, packs up the carriages and horses, and gives a banquet in the palace at night, all the officials enjoy the palace lanterns together, and the common people can enter the outer palace if they wish, there are lanterns on the streets far from the palace, so they can enjoy it nearby Not bad.

The family banquet on the [-]th day of the first lunar month when Yanyan went back at noon, He Ning called Yanyan out, sent her away, and picked her up in the afternoon.

Housekeeper Xie and Qi Dong were sitting in the shop, talking about how much money Qi Dong bought after returning home, Qi Dong shook his head when he heard it: "No wonder the children said that the Wangfu is rich and powerful, your mouth is 100 million, and the new collection is only a thousand-person market." , not so much.”

"Qi Dong's family bought all the blue dot weaving twelve styles of clothing that were delivered before the Mid-Autumn Festival; the last batch of Huangjiaohua hairbands that were delivered were also bought as much as they wanted."

Although Qi Dong's business is not big, but he understood it as soon as he heard it, and said with a smile: "Are you trying to store goods?"

Housekeeper Xie said with a smile: "If the Qi Dong family believes in my vision, you can just keep it if you have money."

Qi Dong began to shake his head again: "Haven't I said with all my heart that I am a very small businessman, and the children's business is not as big as your family's. My good guy, you are selling 100 million taels. Isn't it a big businessman like you?" Thanks to Miss Xiu, I have never met in this life."

At this time, a person came outside the store, covered in silk and satin, with flower arrangements in her hair, a red cherry mouth on her pink face, with a strange fragrance all over her body, she walked in and grinned: "The old guest is looking for Mr. He's house, the young and handsome tenth one in Chunwei."

Qi Dong looked at her in astonishment, this, this, this attire did not come from a good place, this is...
Before he finished thinking about it, Housekeeper Xie smiled lowly: "Here, a big businessman of 100 million taels, you just met another one."

He Ning just came back, and he was startled when he entered the door. Why is the old bustard in such a romantic place standing in his shop?

"Hey, this is Mr. He's house, your old guest. The five uncles from the south said they missed you. They didn't dare to disturb you during the New Year. It's about fifteen years old. I think they will pay their respects in the coming year. I invite you to enjoy the lanterns at night." Get rid of all kinds of diseases."

She said "What?" He Ning got goosebumps and blushed, "I'm a quiet shop here, how can you come in, and besides, I don't have any acquaintances in the brothel?"

The old bustard turned his face and spat at him: "It's not your old customer who begged me, I still haven't come, and besides, you who run a shop, am I not a customer?"

It was only at this time that He Ning thought of what she said just now. The old customer from Nanbianer lived in her brothel, and He Ning was dumbfounded: "You did not make a mistake? Didn't the old customer from Nanbianer rush home for the New Year?"

He suddenly thought, will my [-] catties of seafood still arrive on time?
Seeing that he believed it, the procuress twisted and turned to the counter to look at the fabric, and retaliated against He Ning with a loud voice: "Oh, the fabric is not so rare, if it weren't for your old customers who would spend thousands of dollars on our girls. Hua, begged me to take care of your business, but I still refuse to come."

When He Ning heard it, he became popular again. Could it be that the tenth in Chunwei has no status?Even if he becomes the owner, there is no vulgar conversation, he turned his face and was about to explode, butler Xie snickered and raised his finger in front of his lips: "Shhh!"

"Is it true?" He Ning realized and asked for confirmation in a low voice.

"Which sentence?" Butler Xie was also narrowed, Anxin wanted to see which sentence He Ning cared more about the old bustard.

"Spend one hundred thousand and eighty thousand?" He Ning thought to himself that I bought a thousand catties of goods and paid a total of one hundred thousand. Don't these merchants in the south keep their profits and take them home.

"Really." Butler Xie gave a low smirk, gestured and said again: "The five people spent a total of 35."

Qi Dong almost fell, He Ning was sluggish on the spot, and Butler Xie continued to smirk.

The old bustard's voice continued to overwhelm the shop: "Oh, oh, oh, what kind of color is this? The flowers on this dress also turn into a fire girl, oh, oh, oh, this material is thick, is it for people to wear?"

The guys were all shunned by her, scholars always want face, Qi Xunfu and Qi Jun waited on her patiently, these two shopkeepers just do business if they have business, and they don't care who comes to buy things.

"Mom, mom, this flower looks like ingots horizontally, and silver coins vertically. You and the girls are each in the same body, and you will make money and treasure every day."

"Look at this, mom. You are even more immortal than a fairy with this cloth. I'll put it on for you. Let's take a look in front of the mirror. Yes, mom, take a step, and you will see the mirror after another step. What do you think? His face looks like a rich man."

He Ning's face was blue and red, and there was only one sentence in his mind, I am a quiet shop, I was born as a scholar, the tenth in Chunwei.
