Peasant Girl Bookseller

Chapter 208 Domineering
It turned out that Ye Dafu was worried when he saw that Mai Xiang hadn't gone back for such a long time. Thinking of seeing his daughter in the capital, Mrs. Zhao had already thought about going to the city, so the family came to the capital for Laba, and by the way, let Mai Xiang give it to Liu Find a good doctor and have a look.

"Is Mammy feeling better?" Mai Xiang first said hello to Mrs. Liu.

"It's much better, it's hard for you child." Liu Shi also knew that she spent a lot of money on this trip, and many expensive medicinal materials were sent to her from the capital by Mai Xiang.

"Grandpa and Mammy are probably a little tired, so I'll arrange a room for you right now."

It seems that this year is going to be spent in the capital, which suits Mai Xiang's wishes, but she is worried that Mrs. Li is still a little awkward, because when she came out of Huangye Village, Mrs. Liu still did not untie this knot. .

"Mother, what do you want to eat, I'll make it for you right away." Shi Li looked at Shi Liu, still asking with a low eyebrow.

"That's right, I'll make arrangements for what Mammy wants to eat." Mai Xiang also asked.

"Eat whatever you have, I'm not picky, but my body is really tired, and it's true that I want to lie down for a while." There was no expression on Liu's face, and Mai Xiang noticed that she was looking at it. A glance at Li Shi's stomach is not very revealing.

As soon as Mai Xiang, Feng Ye, and Hong Ye arranged the rooms for everyone, Jiufeng took Mai Xiang to the street for a walk.

"Grandma, everyone is going to celebrate the New Year in the city. Why are you in a hurry? Aren't you tired?" Mai Xiang admired her energy.

"Why are you tired? What's so tiring sitting in the carriage?" Jiufeng pouted.

"Mai Xiang, I also want to visit Fifth Brother's restaurant. I heard that it is much better than the shop I run. By the way, the shop has been closed, and two women are left there to guard it. I will give you the account books too. Brought it."

"Don't worry, Eighth Uncle went to visit Fifth Uncle, and I happened to take my old aunt for a stroll. There are the most shops there, and you can find everything you want." Mai Xiang said.

"Sister, I want to go too." Mai Huang and the others jumped up.

"Okay, if you don't feel tired, we'll go and have dinner at the restaurant." Mai Xiang hasn't seen Mai Huang for more than a month, and she really misses it.

"Oh, okay, big sister took us to the restaurant." Mai Di jumped up, he didn't have any memory of going to the restaurant, but he just heard from Mai Huang and others, so he was very yearning to go to the restaurant.

"Okay, big sister will take us to Maidi's underground restaurant. What do you want to eat?" Mai Xiang hugged Maidi. She has the deepest affection for Maidi, and it was brought up by her.

"Elder Sister can eat whatever you give me." Mai Di put his arms around Mai Xiang's neck, and rubbed against Mai Xiang vigorously. He also missed Mai Xiang.

Huaici was a bit apprehensive seeing it, it was his territory, how could a brat take it?
"Mai Di, come here, brother-in-law hugs, brother-in-law will take you to the street to buy you some fun." Huaici said and took Maidi away from Mai Xiang's hand.

Those who didn't know Liu and Zhao thought that Huaici really missed Maidi, and they all laughed and said, "Look at this brother Ci, you know how to please your brother-in-law before you get married, and those who don't know think you are relatives." What about the two brothers?"

Mai Xiang smiled, she knew that Huaici's personality was cold and she didn't like being touched by others, she might just be jealous, how could she really miss Maidi?
Sure enough, as soon as Mai Xiang pursed her lips into a smile, Huai Ci put down the Mai field and said to Mai Xiang: "Sister, you walk over slowly, I will send people away first, and then I will go to the street to find you."

"Okay, if you are a little late, send my parents to Fuyun directly."

Mai Xiang guessed that if he sent people back with such a big fanfare, he might be angry again. Moreover, Mai Xiang didn't know, what new tricks would Mrs. Wan have?
"Big sister, brother-in-law is gone, are you still stupid?" Mai Qing pushed Mai Xiang.

"Third sister grows more and more beautiful, let's go, eldest sister will buy you two new jewelry." Mai Xiang pinched Mai Qing's fair face.

The girls in the Ye family are prettier than the other, but when it comes to how beautiful they are, they are not at all beautiful.

Of course, Mai Xiang is not ugly, she is just an ordinary person, but she is confident, and her unique temperament from the inside out makes her stand beside Huai Ci not at all inferior.

"Elder Sister teased us again, and Eldest Sister is getting more and more beautiful." Mai Lu raised her head and laughed.

Mai Xiang also pinched Mai Lu's face when she heard this, and said with a smile, "Yes, the most beautiful girl in our family, what gift do you want?"

"I have money, and the second sister sent us money." Mai Lu hurriedly opened her purse.

"Okay, the second sister sent it, and the eldest sister will also send some to you." Mai Xiang smiled and led Mai Lu.

Bafu hugged the wheat field, Mai Xiang followed with her red leaves, walked out of the alley, and walked for a quarter of an hour to the intersection.

Only then did Mai Xiang know that there were shopaholics in ancient times, and Jiufeng and Maihuang were two of them, especially Jiufeng, who came to the capital for the first time and saw so many shops for the first time. , She wanted to buy everything she saw, Mai Xiang saw that the purse she had brought with her was quickly deflated, so she gave her two taels of silver.

Besides, when Huaici arrived at the Wan's family, the Wan's family was fully populated at this time, and the elders of the Wan's family were a little surprised to see Huaici come back, especially Wan Baocai and the old lady Wan.

"Brother Yuan, it's the annual holiday. Kang Yi, go and order the kitchen to add some dishes. Today is a rare family reunion." Mrs. Wan smiled when she saw Huai Ci.

"Don't worry, madam. I came here to say something, and I'll leave after I finish." Every time Huai Ci saw his aunt's smiling face, he wanted to tear it to pieces, God knows how much effort he had to control himself.

"Brother Yuan, come on, mammy, have a look, has my grandson lost weight?" Mrs. Wan stretched out her hand and held her grandson.

"Grandma, don't worry, I'll take care of myself." Huai Ci didn't have any feelings for Mrs. Wan, but she didn't hate Mrs. Wan as much as she did.

"Then what are you doing this trip?" Seeing his son's cold look, Wan Chengyao felt angry again.

"I sent people back to you. I have enough people over there. I can't afford to support any more people."

"Man, who is it?" Wan Chengyao asked.

"Come in, all of you." Huai Ci called out to the door.

Eight people walked in with their heads down.

"Isn't this the person I asked your mother to choose for you? Why doesn't it suit you?" Wan Chengyao looked at Huai Ci and asked.

This son can't cover the heat no matter what, he doesn't know, what's wrong?Sometimes, he even doubted, who did this son follow?How could that gentle and gentle woman like jade give birth to such a rebellious son?
"Brother Yuan, this is your father's idea. Your father came back last time and said that your yard is too big and there are few people working there. He discussed with me how many people should send it to you." Mrs. Wan said .

Mrs. Wan has reported all these people to her. Huaici will be nineteen next year, and three years before getting married. There should be one or two bed warmers around him, so Xueer is sent here. After all, Xueer My son is already a kind person.There is also a wet nurse, who is also a kind person, and Mrs. Wan feels that there is nothing wrong with or giving up on the person chosen by her daughter-in-law this time.

"Mommy, I have been in the academy for more than a year and a half. I don't need these people at home, and I don't have spare money to support them. I still say the same thing, don't send people to me in the future. Send one piece, and I will sell it together."

"You child, why are you becoming a bit indifferent now?" Mrs. Wan sighed.

Wan Baocai didn't speak all the time, he just kept looking at Huaici, and felt that this grandson was very different, and the way he spoke seemed to be a different person from before, as if there was a kind of domineering.

Looking at Wan Zhigao on the side, at first glance, he is also very good, but Wan Baocai knows how soft this grandson's personality is, and he can't bring up major issues at all.

"Second brother, they are just a few servants. You sent them away if you didn't want them. It's not a big deal. It's easy for you to go home. We won't talk about these unpleasant things. What kind of servants do you want?" Man, you can pick a few from home, if you don't like them, just buy a few more." Wan Zhigao stepped forward to persuade.

He didn't do it because of Huaici, but he felt that Huaici was so aggressive for a few servants, it was a bit of a fuss, and the people who were persecuted by Huaici were his biological mother and the grandmother who loved him since childhood. Even Wan Zhigao couldn't keep silent.

"Brother said, it's just a few servants. I sent them back. If you like them, you can choose them. If you don't like them, you can sell them. What kind of people you want to use in the future is up to me. I will go to buy it, so I won't bother you all. I have something else to do, so I won't stay any longer." After Huai Ci finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, he was still thinking about going to accompany Mai Xiang.

"Brother Yuan, sit down." Wan Baocai said.

Huaici seldom had contact with Wanbaocai. One was that Wanbaocai was busy with business and didn't have much time at home. The other was that Huaici had always been afraid of this serious grandfather, hiding as far away as he could.

Of course, the more important reason was that Wan Baocai didn't have this grandson in his heart either. Wan Zhiyuan was already eight years old when he was released from the remote courtyard.

But when Wan Baocai called him, Huaici still stopped, he wanted to see what this grandfather who rarely spoke would say.

"Brother Yuan, tell grandpa why you don't want these people?" Wan Baocai's tone was much more kind than Wan Chengyao's.

"I'm just a student now. I've been in the academy all year round. There are already a few men doing rough work at home. Why do I need so many decorations at home? Besides, when I get home, I just want to read a book in peace. Hope to be disturbed."

Wan Baocai heard the word "excuse me", raised his head and looked, the four maids were all fifteen or sixteen years old, and each of them was very delicate and pleasant, they didn't look like maids at all, but seemed to be caring. Prepared bed warmer girl.

With these few maids hanging around Huaici, is it any wonder that Huaici can calm down and study?

Thinking of this, Wan Baocai couldn't help looking at Mrs. Wan.
