Rebirth of the little landlady

Chapter 184 Finally climbing a tree again
With Ni Yuze's evaluation, the peaceful life that Ni Xiaopang and Yuan Bao had just enjoyed was naturally broken again. Not only that, this time even Yuan Bao, who was originally inconspicuous, also entered everyone's sight, including the previous "meritorious achievements". ", such as being rewarded by the empress dowager, etc., all of which have become known to everyone. Some servants who don't know each other on weekdays use various excuses to establish a relationship with Yuanbao. Go "talk".

"What should I do?" Ni Xiaopang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Yuan Bao's complexion was also not good-looking, "It's fine as a servant, I can just say no, but these ladies..."

Ni Xiaopang puffed up his chest, "I'll resign!" After all, he is Yuan Bao's nominal "master", if he says he won't let Yuan Bao go, others won't be able to tell what Yuan Bao is, but Ni Xiaopang is arrogant and impolite The image is formed.

So Yuan Bao immediately denied it, "No! You have to be careful about what you do now."

"But I can't let you wander around the Ni mansion alone, who knows what will be waiting for you?" Ni Xiaopang's eyes were red, and he remembered what happened to Yuan Bao at his aunt's place.

Yuan Bao gritted his teeth, "I don't think so, the ladies are just curious, after all, things like adoption have nothing to do with many people, let alone me!" Having said that, she also knew that if something happened to her, Son, how big a blow it will be to Ni Xiaopang, and she can think of this, and others will also think of it. This is why she said at the beginning that [-]% of the time she was killed by someone else.

"In short, I can't be separated from you, so do whatever you like!" Ni Xiaopang said, he had made up his mind, no matter what happened, he would face it with Yuan Bao, he understood that the two of them When the two are added together, the power is definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two. Their complementarity allows them to exert greater power.

Yuan Bao nodded, "This is also a way."

So, despite the ridicule and dissatisfaction of others, Ni Xiaopang insisted on "going to the appointment" with Yuan Bao.

Ni Xiaopang is already twelve years old, and it would be inappropriate to enter the inner courtyard at this age. Fortunately, he is the head of the Ni family, so he can barely enter, but the meeting place is often arranged in the main hall, garden, etc. place, and definitely not only the lady who wants to "talk" with Yuan Bao, besides the servants, there are usually a few ladies to accompany her, and sometimes the wives and aunts of each house, etc. It is impossible for so many people to be together. It is impossible to say anything private, and it is impossible to do anything.

In addition, Ni Xiaopang is now a young master with errands, and he has to take Yuanbao to go out often to take care of the shop, so some invitations cannot be attended, and he can only wait until he has free time before going down the row. In this way, the number of times Yuan Bao saw people was virtually reduced.

Many people gradually became less enthusiastic about ingots because of various "inconveniences".

Ni Yuze was very dissatisfied with this effect, he really couldn't figure out why Ni Xiaopang and Yuan Bao could be so "inseparable"?A lot of news about Qing'an County and Sujia Village has been inquired back. Ni Yuze believes that he is probably the person who knows Ni Junfei and Yuan Bao best in the world, not only more than they know each other, but also more than they know about themselves. .

But the more Ni Yuze knew, the less he understood the affection between them—they were originally a relationship of mutual use!
Of course, there were "unexpected joys". After Ni Yuze waited for half a month, Ni Xiaopang and Yuan Bao finally climbed the tree again.

All the flowers on the Albizia julibrissin tree had fallen, but the branches and leaves were still lush. With the previous experience, they quickly found a suitable position this time.

"Hey—" Yuan Bao leaned against the tree trunk and let out a long sigh, "Can't these people let us be quiet for a while?!"

Ni Xiaopang was a little annoyed, "Mr. Ze should have thought of this when he praised us," he asked Yuan Bao very puzzled, "Why do you always stop me from asking him for help?"

Someone has already said that in the matter of adoption, the final decision is not in the hands of others, it is in the hands of Mr. Ze, so the young masters surnamed Yu will be so indifferent after being treated coldly by the old lady, because they believe that, Mr. Ze will not favor young master Ni.

Although Mr. Ze had never appeared at these young masters' gatherings, except for the young masters, everyone else had written posts and sent various things to Mr. Ze.

These things include gifts to express their hearts, and works that show their talents, especially after Mr. Ze praised Ni Xiaopang. article.

And the reason why Ni Xiaopang made this suggestion is because he feels that their current troubles are entirely caused by Mr. Ze. No matter whether Mr. Ze really appreciates them or has other ideas, he should help them out of emotion and reason. They are right.

"Little Fatty, tell me, what should you do when you are Mr. Ze? What are you thinking about?" Yuan Bao asked softly, biting the "this time" very clearly. She believed that Ni Xiaopang could understand that this was "the end of life." " is a euphemism.

Ni Xiaopang blinked, he understood what Yuan Bao meant, but he didn't know how to answer.

Yuan Bao raised her head and looked at the clear night sky. The moon was bright and the stars were twinkling. She could clearly see the faint blue hidden in the darkness. Those rays of light were like jewels inlaid on fine velvet, eternal and lasting, immortal , reminding her of the human soul.

Yuan Bao remembered that there was a saying in the previous life that the deceased would turn into a star in the sky, stare at the person he (she) cared about from afar, and never leave.

This statement is illusory but beautiful.

Faces involuntarily appeared before Yuan Bao's eyes, all of which were "sent away" by her in her previous life.

From graduating from university at the age of 21 to the death of her grandmother at the age of 29, Yuan Bao lived in the hospital for eight years. During this period, as a nurse, she has taken care of many critically ill patients and personally "sent away" many people. She has no memory at all. I don't know clearly, and I don't want to remember it. I just know that it has become her habit to think about problems from the perspective and feelings of the patient when facing the patient.

Although "hospice care" has become a specialized occupation in modern times, most of the time this work is still done by family members and nurses because of the lack of professionals and high cost, and Yuan Bao has already done it very skillfully. up.

Yuan Bao didn't wait for Ni Xiaopang to answer, and said leisurely as if talking to himself, "Mr. Ze, he should be taken care of by many people now, and go all out to find a cure for his illness..." Of course, It must have been unsuccessful, otherwise it would not have come to where it is today. "And before you find it, you should try to reduce his pain, make him happier, calmer, and tell more about those beautiful stories. Legends, for example, there may be another world in this world that we don’t know. It is beautiful there. There are grandfathers who dote on him and parents who love him deeply. These relatives are waiting for him there. If he goes , he will not be alone, and will continue to live happily with them..."

It is often said that "the dead are the greatest", but in the eyes of medical staff, it means "patients are respected and life is supreme", and when lives can no longer be saved, they should be given enough respect to let them go away peacefully ...

"If he has any wish, then he should try his best to realize it, so that he has no regrets," Yuan Bao said with uncontrollable resentment in his tone, "How can you bother him with these trivial and mundane things? If he is seventy or eighty years old, that's all right, he has children and grandchildren, a family, and worries, he needs to make proper arrangements before he can go safely, but he is still just a child!"

Yuan Bao turned to Ni Xiaopang, and let out all the emotions in his heart, "Why did no one think that even if he is rich and powerful, he will be lonely and afraid, and he needs comfort and care instead of disturbance?! These How can a person just think of a way to snatch him from him for his own selfishness, while he is still watching?!" During these days, they wandered a lot in Fucheng, more or less He has heard about Mr. Ze and the Ni and Yu residences, although they dare not say it, how could they not keep it in mind? !
"Little Fatty," Yuan Bao grabbed Ni Xiaopang's arm. Because of too much force, two faint finger marks were left on Ni Xiaopang's arm, but none of them noticed it at this time, "Love money love There's nothing wrong with Quan, I'm a money fan, but our hearts can't be changed, it's too cruel and sinful to bother people at this time!"

Ni Xiaopang nodded heavily, "I understand, Yuan Bao!" Then he asked in puzzlement, "How do you know this?" When Yuan Bao said these words to him, he felt like a benevolent and wise man. Elders, this feeling is a bit strange.

Yuan Bao has not yet recovered from her depressed mood, and she doesn't know when these feelings appeared in her heart, maybe it was the touch she got when she heard Ni Yuze's voice for the first time, or maybe it was her cold eyes watching those " Competing for the Young Master", the actions of the old lady, and the accumulation of discussions in the streets and alleys, accumulated over time.

"How do you know this?" Yuan Bao's tone was sarcasm and cold, "Anyone who has a heart and can think about him will understand, right? But some people don't have a heart, maybe they are not human!"

Ni Xiaopang covered Yuan Bao's mouth, "Keep your voice down, you are dying?!"

Ni Yuze, who had been listening quietly, suddenly felt an unspeakable sadness rushing straight to his chest ribs. The sharp pain from his left chest made drops of cold sweat roll down his forehead and temples. Bending down in the chair, his head also felt dizzy, and it was only then that he realized that he had unknowingly burst into tears.

Jing Ning, the servant girl standing beside Ni Yuze, immediately knelt down in front of him after noticing his strangeness, looked at him worriedly, but said nothing.

It wasn't until Ni Yuze got over the dizziness and signaled to go back to the room that Jing Ning suddenly got up and waved to the dark place. Immediately, four ghostly figures rushed over, lifted Ni Yuze's chair and quickly disappeared. The process was silent and very fast.

Ni Yuze didn't dare to listen anymore. Yuan Bao's words came to his heart, which made him confused. But this night, when the pain hit again, he unconsciously remembered what Yuan Bao said: In another In a world where there are loved ones who truly love him, he will not be alone...

Ni Yuze thought, perhaps, death is nothing to be afraid of, and it is not a painful thing to feel life passing away from the body bit by bit, if there is such happiness waiting for him!
Maybe he was wrong, he should let go, let go of all the fighting and cares, as well as those grievances and resentment!

Thinking of this, Ni Yuze relaxed little by little amidst the unbearable pain and convulsions. Although he was still sweating and crying, he actually fell asleep.

And Ni Yuze couldn't remember how long he hadn't had a night like this - he didn't just pass out from the pain, but fell asleep.

Ni Xiaopang and Yuan Bao didn't know what happened to Ni Yuze. Yuan Bao calmed down after accepting Ni Xiaopang's warning, and Ni Xiaopang also promised that he would not bother Mr. Ze out of selfishness, so, They talked about something else—no matter how pitiful Mr. Ze is, it's not their turn to care about it. They just need to follow their own heart and not do immoral things. What they care more about is their own. safety.

"Yuanbao, tell me, Mr. Ze and the people in the Ni residence don't know what happened to us?" Ni Xiaopang asked.

Yuan Bao sneered, "Why don't you know? Maybe Mr. Ze doesn't know, after all, he is not in good health, but the people in the Ni Mansion must know it well, not only our every move, but I guess the words and deeds of these young masters will be known to everyone .”

"Well, I think so too, so no matter how jealous those young masters are about us, they don't dare to really attack us." What Yuan Bao said, Ni Xiaopang also thought of it, "If this is the case, why don't we do something? What to do, it will be easy to do business when we go home."

"Alright!" Yuan Bao agreed, "Then tell me, what do you want to do?"

"Me, I want to make the business of the shop better." Ni Xiaopang smacked his lips, and he gradually discovered that he actually really likes doing business, and all his glory comes from doing business.

"That's it..." Yuan Bao thought for a while, "How does Ni Zhong do it? And what about in the capital?" At this time, the embroidered egg business is the biggest problem. The source of it has been snuffed out, and how to solve what has survived has to be solved by another method.

"Yunjin's embroidered eggs are provided by us, what's the problem?" Ni Xiaopang smiled smugly, "The capital is for adding hair, but you need to buy more than three embroidered eggs to add hair to one embroidered egg." Well, it’s okay to say that there are many rich people in the capital, so I don’t know if it’s okay here!” Suddenly he slapped his head, “Why did I forget, this place is more prosperous than the capital city, and it will definitely work.” Turning to look at Yuan Bao , smiling flatteringly, "How about I go to the shop tomorrow to make arrangements like this?"

Yuan Bao turned his head away from him.

Ni Xiaopang laughed, "Yuanbao, let me tell the truth, isn't it okay to tell the truth? Actually, when we were at home, we discussed this issue. Originally, we wanted to be like the one in the capital, but my grandfather said, that way Well, after all, the price has been reduced. It’s fine in the capital, but Fucheng is the owner’s world. We used the store of the owner’s house, which is to use the face of the owner. If the price is reduced, it’s really embarrassing. So let us all think of another way, I... I want to show it but I didn't think about it!"

"Me," Ni Xiaopang gently tugged at Yuan Bao's sleeve, "I know you hate our family and don't want to get involved in our family's bad things, and you are afraid that our family will have any bad thoughts, so you dare not Ask you directly."

Yuan Bao snorted, "It's good that you know, this time, it has to be like the method of accounting and keeping accounts. No matter when, you can't say that I taught you!" On the second day, when When Ni Yuze heard these words, his heart trembled. Only then did he know the source of Ni Xiaopang's "talent". Since then, he has naturally paid more attention to Yuanbao.

Yuan Bao's idea for Ni Xiaopang this time is to draw a lottery, that is, to make a wooden roulette with numbers written on it, and on the side shelf, there are prizes corresponding to each number, as long as you buy an embroidered egg , you can turn it around, buy one more, and you will have one more chance to turn it.

The prizes are not only the embroidered eggs in stock, but also the overstocked goods in other shops purchased by the shopkeeper. These are all bought from the main shop. This one is to take care of the business to show friendship, and the other is from the main shop. Things are never discounted, so the price of the prize is guaranteed.

The price of the prizes varies from high to low, and the price of one prize itself has exceeded the price of the embroidered egg. Of course, the purchase price is very low. Anyone who is in business knows that the stock is slow-moving. , plus there is a relationship, half of the purchase price was obtained.

The embroidered eggs in stock accounted for two figures in the prizes, not many, and it would definitely not make people feel that the price of this item has been reduced, but it was also a lot, which would make buyers feel that the store is kind, and other prizes are all cheap even if the price is low. Boutique, after all, the buyers of embroidered eggs are middle and high-end consumers.

As soon as this promotion method came out, because it was fresh, interesting, fair and open, it attracted many people. It not only made the embroidered egg shop really popular for a while, but was also imitated by many merchants. Some people even added this kind of game to their banquets. As a result, the Ni family's embroidered egg shop not only solved the problem of inventory backlog, brought sales to a new level, but also earned a good reputation.

To everyone's surprise, Mr. Ze didn't say a word when Ni Xiaopang made such a big noise this time.

So all kinds of speculations came out. Some people said that Ni Xiaopang had done bad things in private, and was discovered by Mr. Ze, and he no longer received special attention from Mr. Ze. Some people said that Ni Xiaopang offended because of Yuanbao last time. People in Ni's residence, and some people said that Mr. Ze is on the verge of dying, and he can't take care of anything...
