Chapter 155

"Hahaha, it turns out that Brother Chu has also been to Pinggu Mountain."

"Well, I went there with Xiuniang and her (father)... my old father-in-law. There was a big family who paid a high price for a fox fur. We stayed there for three to catch one. .”

"That's right, hehe, but mountain foxes are hard to catch. I was going to see medicinal herbs the year before last. I passed by there to rest, and I even hunted a few wild rabbits at the foot of the mountain with two buddies."

"Oh, if you catch wild rabbits, you'll have to roast them over a fire."

"Hey, that's right, that's how we did it back then, hehe, it seems that Brother Chu knows how to enjoy it..."

Xiu Niang boiled the water in the stove, and came down with a teapot on the wooden cabinet, thinking about making some tea, she opened the tea pot, took a look inside, threw the tea into the pot, and poured more than [-]% hot water into it. Water, or the tea leaves will overflow after a while.

She watched and stomped out two sticks of firewood from the stove, then took two cups and went out with the teapot.

Hearing Chu Ge and shopkeeper Tian chattering in the yard, only shopkeeper Tian laughed loudly, Xiu Niang curled her lips, she didn't expect shopkeeper Tian to be a chatterbox.

The shopkeeper Chu Ge and Tian sat at the round wooden table, and the two of them talked about other things with a smile. Two Treasure Vine.

Xiuniang saw that the old man should be the chief accountant of Tairen Pharmacy, she walked up to Chuge, put the cup on the table, she looked at Chuge and smiled, "Chuge, what are you talking about, shopkeeper Hetian?"

Chu Ge glanced at Xiu Niang, and pulled out the chair from the table so that Xiu Niang could sit down. He smiled, "Well, Big Brother Tian is talking to me about hunting in the mountains."

Xiu Niang put the teapot down, and put two cups of tea in front of shopkeeper Tian, ​​"Oh, I can't tell, shopkeeper Tian can also hunt mountain things."

Shopkeeper Tian smiled and said, "Little sister-in-law, don't laugh, Tian only knows a thing or two, and it's not really an introduction."

Xiu Niang smiled, picked up the teapot, poured tea into the two empty cups, and at the same time called old shopkeeper Wu Hetian to come over and drink water.

Old Wu turned his head, looked at Xiu Niang and the tea on the table, smiled and said "yes", then turned his head to look at the chickens in the fence.

Just now Chu Ge pulled some vegetable leaves in the circle, those chickens were eating happily with their heads upside down, Old Wu stared at them with great interest, and even helped to chase away some of them wandering around the fence Chickens, so that these few can also go to eat.

Seeing that the cup was full, Xiu Niang put down the teapot and sat down next to Chu Ge. She said to shopkeeper Tian, ​​"Tian shopkeeper, we in the mountains and villages can't find any good tea, so you just make do with a couple of sips." Quench your thirst."

"Hey, my sister-in-law is really too polite. Tian's uninvited visit is already a nuisance. At this time, the weather is dry and irritable. To have such a cup..."

Shopkeeper Tian waved his hand, and said a few words to Xiu Niang very politely, just thinking about drinking tea, he lowered his head, okay, look what is this dark cup of tea!

Chu Ge stared at Shopkeeper Tian with his eyes wide open, and he asked a little strangely, "Brother Tian, ​​what's wrong with you?"

Shopkeeper Tian paused, looked at Chu Ge, and laughed twice, "Oh, it's nothing, I was just thinking, after walking all this way, I am indeed thirsty, it is very good to have such a cup of...tea gone."

Old Wu secretly smiled when he heard this, stroked his beard and shook his head, really, what a cup of Gao Sui (tea powder sifted out when sifting tea).

Xiu Niang waved her hand at him, "Hey, this tea, as long as it fits into the mouth of shopkeeper Tian."

Shopkeeper Tian picked up the cup and looked at Xiuniang, "Hey, sister-in-law and brother Chu are so different from drinking a cup."

Xiu Niang smiled and glanced at Chu Ge, "We don't like to drink tea."

Chu Ge also smiled, "Yes, we only make tea when we have guests."

Shopkeeper Tian pursed his lips stiffly, and looked at the dark cup of high-quality tea in front of him, "Oh, this mountain spring water and flavored tea are of course excellent, Mr. Tian, ​​I am really honored."

Xiu Niang said seriously, "Hey, if you don't say anything, what this scholar says is different. This shopkeeper Tian has a drink of tea, and the words are very elegant, but they are just so nice."

Shopkeeper Tian frowned, held the cup, and took a sip bravely, "Well, not bad."

Xiuniang knew that the shopkeeper Tian just touched his lips and put it down, "The shopkeeper Tian, ​​please drink more."

Shopkeeper Tian hurriedly waved his hands, took out an envelope from his sleeve, and secretly spit out the tea powder in his mouth, "No need, no need, it's more important...Little sister-in-law, please accept this."

Seeing that she didn't take over, Xiu Niang asked, "What is this?"

Asked knowingly, shopkeeper Tian forced a smile, "Sister-in-law, this is the land deed."

Xiu Niang still looked puzzled, "What title deed?"

Shopkeeper Tian put the envelope in front of Xiuniang, "Sister-in-law, isn't this the shop shop I told you about earlier, I bought it for you yesterday..."

Xiuniang suddenly realized, "Oh, that's why I took the Erbao rattan and shopkeeper Tian and said yes, if the Erbao rattan's seedlings grow well, you can help me find a paving workshop in the town. It turns out that it has been more than two months since this episode, and shopkeeper Tian still remembers it, but he really has a good memory."

Shopkeeper Tian twitched his lips, he didn’t say that two months ago, he saw that Xiu Niang hadn’t opened it, so he thought about it and said to Chu Ge, “Brother Chu, take a look, the paving workshop is in the back. In the middle of the street, this location is very good, you can do carpentry in time..."

Chu Ge pushed back the envelope that Shopkeeper Tian had pushed in front of him, and smiled, "Brother Tian, ​​I don't care whether this shop is good or not."

Xiu Niang looked at it and smiled to herself, the shopkeeper of Tian Tian had a very good plan, thinking that as long as she accepted the land deed, nothing would happen, and when she saw that she would not accept it, she thought about beating Chu Ge No wonder he kept chatting with Chu Ge just now.

Chu Ge looked simple and honest on the face, but his brain was also very careless. She was washing dishes in the stove just now, and suddenly she saw shopkeeper Tian driving the carriage to the door, so she chatted with Chu Ge briefly, let He didn't pay attention to shopkeeper Tian for a while, no matter what shopkeeper Tian said to him, he just pushed everything on her.

Shopkeeper Tian watched and said to Xiu Niang, "Sister-in-law, why don't you take a look? You drove the town a few times earlier, just because of this."

Xiu Niang suddenly smiled, and said, "Yes, I used to go to the town for this paving workshop, but now I have to listen to my man whether I want this workshop or not."

Shopkeeper Tian let the two people in front of him push back and forth, his smiling face couldn't hold on any longer, he turned back to look at Old Wu, frowned and cleared his throat, meaning to let him make peace.

But old Wu Leng pretended not to hear, and still looked at the chickens around the fence.

Shopkeeper Tian was a little angry now, but he thought of the purpose of coming here, and he calmed himself down. He looked at Xiu Niang and murmured in his heart, it seems that this little woman won't let him confess her love Let it go, this morning he asked Master Wang to deliver the land deed for him, but this little woman wanted him to come in person, just to vent her anger.

Thinking about this, he sighed secretly, oh, forget it, admit it, just admit it, who told me to treat others like that before, I have to think about punishing others, this matter is not caused by meddling of.

Shopkeeper Tian understood after thinking about it, and he didn't feel awkward anymore. He looked at Xiu Niang, took the envelope in his hand, and handed it to Xiu Niang. It's Tian who is too reckless, please don't worry about my sister-in-law, now, I hope my sister-in-law will ignore the past, accept this land deed, and turn the war into jade, what do you think, sister-in-law?"

Xiu Niang listened for a while, but she didn't expect shopkeeper Tian to say that. She knew that shopkeeper Tian said "the original incident", which meant that he didn't give herself a land deed as agreed, but wanted to use this property instead. Because of the storefront, she collected her rent, so she exchanged a lease for her, but Tian Zhang said so, is it to admit his mistake?

She stared at Shopkeeper Tian and was stunned. She had prepared a lot of things to talk to this man, but now he has given up, and she has no choice but to continue.

Old Wu watched from behind, and nodded in satisfaction. Although the shopkeeper has not been in business for a long time, he is a good material. The woman obviously wants to change the way to make the shopkeeper angry, and then she can have something to say nagging.

The woman guessed that the shopkeeper had let her hang out in the pharmacy so many times before, and this time she just let the shopkeeper hang out, so the shopkeeper couldn't stand it anymore, but now the shopkeeper bowed to the end, This woman has nothing to say.

Xiu Niang looked at shopkeeper Tian like this, but she didn't have much to say. She frowned, and took the envelope in her hand after thinking.

Shopkeeper Tian smiled, and praised Xiu Niang, "Little sister-in-law really understands righteousness and is open-minded."

Xiuniang thought to herself, you are relieved now, but it's her turn to feel uncomfortable now, she pursed her lips, opened the envelope, looked at it, and said to Shopkeeper Tian, ​​"With this Shopkeeper Tian bought the paving workshop for 57 taels?"

Shopkeeper Tian smiled, "That's right, it's 57 taels."

Chu Ge looked at Xiu Niang and saw that she had given the envelope to him, so he said to shopkeeper Tian, ​​"Brother Tian, ​​please sit down first, I will go back to the room and get the money for you."

Shopkeeper Tian paused and said, "Brother Chu, you don't need it. This paving workshop is my apology to my sister...you two. I still have something to ask my sister-in-law for help."

Chu Ge still laughed, and then walked towards the inner room with the land deed in unison. The shopkeeper Tian wanted to tell him that he didn't need to fetch the silver, but Xiu Niang spoke first.

"Shopkeeper Tian, ​​I agreed with you earlier about this shop shop. I just asked you to help me find one. There is no other meaning, and what you just said asked me to help..."

She looked at shopkeeper Tian and smiled, "It's a matter of yards and yards."
