344 Buy watch
Shi Gui asked the price in the clock shop, it was always inconvenient to look at the hourly things on his body, and he could only look up at the sun when he went back, but it was getting hotter and hotter day by day, and he couldn't see when he looked up, and he had already lived in the back alley of the clock street, so he remembered to buy a pocket watch.
The craft of watchmaking is really from the Westerners, many of the watchmakers in the old shops are still Westerners, their hair is half white, and they have received a ticket for elementary school apprentices, and even those apprentices are already at the age of children and grandchildren around their knees.
For more than a hundred years, there is everything on this street, a small table clock resting on a few cases, a building clock that can still stand on three floors, and naturally there are pocket watches that are carried in your pocket and carried with you.
This thing is a precious thing, naturally made fine, there are gemstones, there are also enamels, the orchid peony is for the daughter of the boudoir, and it is made into a plain carved bamboo, which is for men.
It turned out that there was a table clock in Ye Wenxin's house, and the style was very rich, it was given by someone else, she didn't love it very much, and put it in the corner of Duobaoge for the girls to use.
Shi Gui didn't know how much a pocket watch cost, I saw it in front of the door, my heart moved, Xiao was afraid that I couldn't afford it for a while, and I couldn't stand to go in and ask for a price, there were boats, boats, cars and horses, and the pieces were fine, it turned out that the Westerners passed on the craftsmanship of watchmaking, and then it was the local watchmakers in Suizhou who did it and sent it out to sell.
Shi Gui took a closer look at the clock, half of it was gold inlaid with treasure, half of it was porcelain with a pattern, there was no price on it, only two words of inquiry, as soon as she saw these two words, she knew that she couldn't even ask, she was unwilling to leave without even asking the price, but the apprentice drooped his head for a long time and did not move, just looking at the clothes knew that he could not afford it.
Don't come to say hello, she asked the price by herself, knocked on the counter with her fingers, the young man raised his head, and then saw Shi Guisheng with big eyes and bent eyebrows, rubbing his hands, knowing that she couldn't afford it, he still laughed: "What does the girl want to ask?"
"I don't know how much silver the cheapest pocket watch costs. "These watches are expensive in the inlaid jewels, Shi Gui would rather not have these, just use the surface of plain silver, which can be hung around the neck, and there is no need to have any tricks.
The young man laughed: "It depends on the size, you can carry it on your body and take it away, if you don't have this number, you can't take it away." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, opened a slap, and compared it to five.
Shi Gui knew that this was the meaning of fifty taels, and it was much more expensive than she thought: "What if you don't have a treasure and don't want gold?"
The young man's face is difficult, which one of these is really to see the time, or used as a gift decoration, no inlay treasure or carving, the master does not make a profit, not to mention this one, which shop is not.
Shi Gui sighed, thanked him and opened the door and walked out, only to see Mingyue coming from the other side of the street, carrying a cloth bag in his hand, but his brows were furrowed, and it was really rare to see the color of trouble on his face.
Mingyue was followed by a soldier, and he argued on the road, saying a few words to each other, the man spitted, Mingyue glanced at him, both of them were not happy, the man turned his head and left, two steps away and turned around again, pointing to Mingyue's nose, looking extremely bad.
Mingyue ignored him, looked up and saw Shi Gui standing at the door of the shop, grinned all of a sudden, put his anger behind him, and trotted forward two steps: "Why are you here?"
As he spoke, he went to look at the clock shop behind Shi Gui: "Do you want this, can you use it?" Insert a stick in the barracks to watch the hour, the sun is in the middle of the day, and the day's morning exercise is over, but Shi Gui is so afraid of heat, how can she withstand the sun, see her come out empty-handed, and know that she didn't buy it.
Shi Gui pulled him and didn't let him enter the door and asked, "I just asked in vain, even if I have that spare money, I can't use it here, let's buy a house." "It's best to be close to Qiu Niang Xizi, the house here is not cheap, and a pocket watch can be placed in half a yard.
Mingyue smiled, when she saw Shi Gui, she couldn't get angry at all, so she was so angry that she was smoking, seeing her pushing and pulling, and looking down at him with a cloth bag in his hand, and asking him what he had packed back, Mingyue shook the cloth bag: "It's all inside." ”
His full belongings are two cloth shirts, one leggings and one pants, and then a small bag of silver, and the money for the work during this period has not been received, so he took it out and gave it to Shi Gui: "You keep it for me." "I don't know when it's gone when he is here, Mingyue doesn't count in his hands, he never stingy with drinking and eating, someone asked him to borrow money to turnover, he is also willing to make money, and there is not much when he comes to his senses, but now it is different, he has to save money to beg his daughter-in-law.
He took a day off, and after a day's rest, he had to go back to catch up with the deadline, and when he was done, Shi Gui asked him: "Who is that person just now, and why did he fight with you?"
It's not because of Wu Qianhu, Mrs. Wu has been watching Mingyue for three or four years, her daughter is getting older day by day, and her father is a temperament, how can she not do it with a needle, she has a headache when she sees the account book, but there is a father who hurts her everywhere, how can this son not suffer when she marries, even if she has no father, then she has to be in charge, and she can't be called a housewife.
I can't see Mingyue anymore, I really want to have the same benefit, how can there be any good materials for the son-in-law, Mingyue is a good material, not to mention that life is good, and it is not that soft lying on the stomach only knows that it depends on the Yue family, and if you have the idea to endure hardships, your daughter entrusts him, and she can still live at home if she becomes a parent, no matter how good it is.
At this time, the body is poor, and there is also a husband, slowly lifting it up, not to mention the side, the general flag can always be one, the husband praises him for his kung fu and good people, and if someone helps him, he will rise quickly.
The second girl of the Wu family can see that she is fourteen in a blink of an eye, and it will be too late if she is not decided, a girl of such an age, knowing that she is ashamed to start needlework early and not go out, she is very wild, and she refuses to be stuffy in the house, Mrs. Wu is a motherly heart, and wants to restrain her, but she is afraid that she is too boring, and she is tempted, how can she marry someone in the future without restraint, unless she still recruits a son-in-law who comes to the door.
Mrs. Wu's heart moved, but Mingyue didn't realize it at all, he didn't despise his own family, but he really put it out, he wanted to match the daughter of a thousand households, he couldn't have imagined it, and he didn't think about eating such a piece of cake, don't joke a few words, no one takes it seriously, there are still people in the camp who dream of being the emperor's son-in-law.
It turned out that it was just a word, how did he know that Mrs. Wu had this meaning, so she instructed someone to ask where Mingyue's family was, although she knew the roots, she also had to interrogate once, lest he refuse to be a son-in-law, in case he refused to do so, even if he nodded for the sake of kindness for a while, his heart was not happy, and his parents were there, and when they were old and gone, how could his daughter stand it.
It's this question, the original joke is a bit sincere, Mingyue has Shi Gui, but others don't think so, this is the last life burned with high incense, this life has such good luck, read and read next to Mingyue's ear, Mingyue only has one sentence: "I already have a daughter-in-law." ”
He didn't know whether the second girl of the Wu family was round or flat, and he never thought about it, so the man persuaded him: "Look at Wu Qianhu, it's just rougher, it's just that his face is injured, and he is also a first-class talent in detail, not to mention Madame, the daughter raised will still be a yaksha, you don't want the Yanfu in front of you, you want a village girl!"
There is nothing else that can't be asked, but Mingyue doesn't care, Wu Qianhu didn't ask him, he just didn't know, but he said goodbye to Mrs. Wu, saying that he had rented a house and was going to move over immediately.
It can't be said that there is a daughter-in-law who is engaged, isn't this not reaching out and slapping people's faces, only doing everything possible to shirk, rolling up his clothes and running away, living with him in the Wu family, beating the brothers who came from Jinling City, and scolding him all the way to lard.
Mingyue ignored him, what about the second girl Wu being a fairy, it has nothing to do with him, not to mention that he already has Shi Gui at this time, and the two will live under the same roof immediately, that is, without Shi Gui, how can the eldest husband touch the light of a woman.
If you want to ask a woman to tie it to the skirt, what kind of blood is it to live, the man said that he regretted it in the future, Mingyue rolled her eyes, and didn't pay attention to him for half a sentence, it is really the real ability to fight with a knife and a shot on your own, so you don't rely on women, as long as you get married, you can't tell it all over your mouth.
Naturally, he wouldn't tell Shi Gui these words, but just shook his head: "Brothers in my camp, let's read the book of war and discuss the art of war together, and we have different opinions to fight, and it's not really a discord." What he said was as if it was true, his eyes were round and he lied, and he compared the formation used to fight with Shi Gui very seriously, saying that it was because of the disagreement between the two that they fought all the way.
Shi Gui smiled at the corner of his mouth, his eyes were shining and he looked at him, he knew that he was lying, Mingyue's appearance could deceive others, but she couldn't deceive her, but she didn't expose it, and listened to Mingyue's nonsense seriously.
Entering the courtyard gate, Mingyue opened her head and looked around: "You should raise a dog here, wait for me to bring you one, the big black back raised in our camp, the most loyal to the small and obedient." ”
He looked at the front and back of the house once, and felt that a wall was shorter, afraid that someone would touch it, and looked at some waste tiles behind the house, so he threw his jacket: "Wait for me to go up to the wall to paste some broken tiles, to ensure that no one can touch in." ”
Shi Gui pulled him: "Don't be in a hurry for a while, you hurry up and wash your face, the house has been cleaned up." "Not only the house is cleaned up, but the things in it are also complete, especially the nautical chart, Shi Gui has drawn one, slightly dyed with some color, and made rough, but it is much more accurate than the ones outside, hanging on the wall for Mingyue, he can see it as soon as he enters the door.
Shi Gui set the dishes, but his ears were erect, he heard that there was no movement for a long time, so he turned his eyes sideways to see, Mingyue burst out like a gust of wind, his eyes were bright and red, he wanted to hug her with his hands open, and he didn't hug her, he didn't hug her, he circled around her, and saw that Qiu Niang was still in the stove, Xizi hadn't gotten out of school yet, and there was no one in the yard, so he leaned over and shook her shoulder, and kissed her on the forehead. 166 Reading Network
