Chapter Seventy-Two
......
Aunt Gui shook her head dissatisfied.
"After living here for three years, I still can't get used to the atmosphere of the Jin Kingdom. ”
As she spoke, she suddenly turned her head, laughed and said to the silver hook: "Fang Lao Mao told me that you ordered me to find a mascot?"
Hearing this, Silverhook also smiled.
She spread her hands: "After all, Aunt Gui, if you want to find a man in the Jin Kingdom who is as rigid as our Linguo man to come out and be the shopkeeper, it is as difficult as the sky." The people of the Jin Dynasty, both men and women, looked down on the merchants, and they just liked to chant poetry and be elegant. If you want me to say that you don't have to bother with this, just find a shopkeeper who meets the taste of the Jin people to deal with the government inspection. ”
Aunt Gui hugged the ledger and snorted.
"The young owner doesn't know. Didn't you come at the beginning of this month? On the evening of the fourth day of the new year, a few adults who didn't take off their coats had dinner, and they were a little drunk and a little muddy. The guy went to deal with the deputy shopkeeper who had just been fired, and he was so scared that he couldn't even say a whole sentence. This man is really useless, I have to let him fuck off!"
The two of them talked, and soon came to the warehouse.
Aunt Gui opened several boxes on the ground with the accounting office that came with her.
"This box is smaller than last year's. One hundred taels of spindles. Five spindles horizontally and vertically, twenty-five on one floor, and four on one box, a total of one hundred. There are ten boxes here, and five boxes are in warehouse No. 2 next door. ”
The silver hook was carefully counted layer by layer, and then he took a small scale and weighed a few more, and when he saw that he was satisfied, he nodded and asked Aunt Gui to close the box.
"Those five boxes are going to be used to settle the accounts?"
She asked casually.
"Yes. When the young owner went out, I locked this warehouse. There is no rice grain in this warehouse, only silver, and there is no mold. I have one lock with the same bookkeeper, and I can't make a mistake. ”
Silverhook nodded.
"Aunt Gui is relieved to do things. ”
Saying that, she asked the time and found that it had been more than an hour since she came out, so she wanted to go back to Pei's Mansion before lunch.
After Aunt Gui locked the door of the No. 1 warehouse, she took her to see the five boxes of silver in the No. 2 warehouse.
Silver Hook counted according to the method just now, and the three of them left the second compartment again.
"The things of the young owner's house are all put in the back door. I told Lao Mao and asked him to instruct the kitchen to cook a few new dishes, and you can bring them back for Pei Xiaogongzi to taste. ”
As she spoke, she winked at the silver hook.
Silver Hook was so blushing by her that she hurriedly waved goodbye to her.
......
She left the Hefeng House with the food box.
In the West Street near the West Market, I unexpectedly met Qiongyu.
"Gongzi Qiong also came out to buy something?"
Her gaze fell on the oiled paper package in his hand.
"By the way, Miss asked me to tell you that Qiong Yugongzi's life in Anjing must not be as comfortable as the countryside. It's better to move out early, so as not to live in Pei Mansion for a long time. ”
Qiongyu looked at her inquiringly.
His gaze fell on the food box engraved with the word "Japanese".
Silver Hook is not a Jin woman, and he is not afraid of the gaze of a mute man. Seeing that the word had arrived, she didn't want to stay here any longer, so she turned around and left in the direction of Pei Mansion.
For some reason, when Qiong Yu saw the silver hook, he always felt that there was something about her that made him feel very disobedient, but he couldn't say where.
He landed behind Silver Hook, his gaze sweeping over her bun, her waist, and her legs.
Finally, his eyes locked on the position of the silver hook walking, and there was a hint of clarity in his eyes.
The silver hook walks differently from the women of the Jin Kingdom, and the women of the Jin Kingdom are accustomed to walking in small walks to show elegance. And the silver hook walks with a wide open and closed posture, not like a woman walking, but more bold than most Jin men. In the past, it was not so easy to see in Pei Fuzhong, but now she seems to be in a hurry.
Qiong Yu frowned slightly when she saw that she was walking faster than the pedestrians around her.
Such a bold woman is more like a woman in the country than the Jin Kingdom.
However, there was no evidence based on this judgment alone, and Qiong Yu only hid this sense of disobedience in her heart, thinking about what she had just said.
Pei Hao told him to let him leave Pei's Mansion and not appear in front of her again. But after he entered Pei's Mansion, she never said anything like that again. He thought it was proof that she had completely accepted him, so what was going on now that made her bring it up again?
......
Pei Hao sat quietly in the room for a while, and when he saw that no one had come in, he was a little bored.
Seriously, she just thought Silverhook was joking with her. How could she, a maid who sold herself in, have the ability to punish Zhou's mother and daughter?
But remembering her affirmative eyes at that time, Pei Hao lowered his head and smiled lossily.
Silver Hook is afraid that she has deceived herself, so she can swear so much in front of her, right?
She pushes the wheels under her wheelchair and wants to pass the time with a book on the shelf. Since she couldn't stand up now, she had to pick up the book of poems that was on the lower shelf.
The poems in this poetry collection were all written by her at a poetry meeting last year. At that time, she was still a proud daughter of the sky, with a sound body and a wealthy family, and she had just married the prince, and she was going to marry him to be the princess after she was married.
But the years have passed, but in just one year, everything has changed.
She had crippled legs and spent the Zhou family's money, but the person who married the prince was replaced by her good sister Zhou Shuangyan, who had always been close.
It can be said that it is very miserable.
Pei Hao's fingers swiped over the annotations on it, these were all approved by the noble girlfriends who were originally good friends, but after she returned to Pei's mansion, none of these people appeared. There was only Yan Rong, but she was the next post to laugh at her.
It's just that she didn't become a princess.
Pei Hao shook his head and smiled bitterly, why did they make a gesture like now.
When the silver hook pushed the door in, he happened to see Pei Hao holding the book of poetry in his hand, with a gloomy expression on his face.
She sighed, put the food box in her hand on the table, and took out the book of poems from Pei Hao's hand.
"Miss, I'll burn this thing when I get out, so that you won't be sad. ”
Pei Hao sighed and shook his head.
"I'm not sad. ”
Silverhook's eyes were full of disbelief.
She opened the food box and brought out the dishes one by one.
"Silver Hook specially went to the Japanese Wind Residence, which Miss loves to go, and ordered a few new dishes according to your taste, would you like to try it?"
She went over and pushed Pei Hao over, picked up chopsticks and picked up a piece of jade stewed asparagus, and fed it to her.
"The shopkeeper said that this is the asparagus specially stewed in chicken broth, you can try it. ”
Pei Hao chewed.
"How?"
Silverhook looked at her nervously, afraid she wouldn't like it.
saw Pei Hao nodded, revealing a look of satisfaction.
"Like. ”
Silverhook's face relaxed, and she took out a small bowl of rice from the food box.
"Then you have the right appetite today, but you have to eat a bowl of rice well! If you only eat cat food every day, how can your body stand it?"
Pei Hao's eyes fell on the bowl of rice that was obviously shot tightly, and he frowned slightly.
But in the face of Silver Hook's earnest gaze, thinking of the tantrum she had at her in the morning, she couldn't say anything about her refusal.
So after the two looked at each other for a moment, Pei Hao compromised.
"Okay. ”
She nodded dejectedly.
