Chapter 50: Liang Kee's behind-the-scenes boss

"Hmph~ I just haven't heard of this, and no matter how good our brotherly relationship is, we can't manage it in the house, whether this daughter-in-law is good or bad, intimate or virtuous, you have to experience it yourself to know. If Brother He is not afraid of hurting his brother's face, he might as well ask him face to face for a while, I believe that Brother Liang will definitely explain to you, you two have always been the most in love, and they are often romantic together, why don't you discuss with each other?"

Liao Fanzhi mentioned something, although He Biting was a little unhappy, but he was empowered, and immediately knew that he was drunk and lost his words, and his mouth was busy shouting, "Don't dare, don't dare, I said a lot of things that shouldn't be said for Brother Liang's grievances for a while, the two brothers should be ashamed of me, otherwise I will have no face to face Brother Liang again in the future."

After He Biting finished speaking, he got up and bowed slowly, Li Shoucai was very face-saving, and immediately raised his hand to accept the gift, muttering in his mouth, "Brother Own, what do you say, Brother Liang will never blame Brother He even if he knows"

Liao Fanzhi snorted coldly, he didn't have to stick to the line of He Biting, if it weren't for Liang Zijun's other plans, he would have wanted to smoke this stupid thing.

Wine bag rice bag, empty with a good skin, there is not much ink in the belly, and I have to learn from the literati to be coquettish all day long, if it were not for the name of He Zhi County, and Liang Zijun secretly escorted him, with his pig brain, he should have been secretly repaired many times.

continued to drink lukewarmly in the box, Liao Fanzhi was too lazy to deal with the idiot, and He Biting didn't dare to be bored anymore, and pulled Li Shoucaijing to say something about the wind and snow.

Liang Zijun sent Chen Qing away, plunged into the Liang Ji Cloth Workshop, "Teng Tengteng~" went up to the second floor, and directly pushed the door into a box.

The shopkeeper of Wanda, who got the news, hurriedly explained and personally received the rich young master of Qingping County.

As soon as the shopkeeper entered the door, he hurriedly closed the door with his hand, bowed deeply, and said, "The owner came to the store so late because he was in a hurry?"

It is nothing more than the confusion of the shopkeeper, this is about to close the store, and the owner must have something urgent to do when he breaks in in a hurry and without scruples.

"How are you prepared to explain what you did?" Liang Zijun looked at the shopkeeper Wan with a cold face, and went straight to his mind without even taking a sip of tea.

"It's rushing to make, it's the busy season now, most of the embroiderers have work in their hands, the autumn clothes ordered by the guests have not yet been completed, so the style you want is only half out, and it is really impossible to draw manpower" Wan shopkeeper secretly complained in his heart, the owner said that he was not in a hurry, first close to the old customers in the store, if he didn't pay attention to it, and forced out two embroiderers to catch up with the system, today I am afraid that I will have to swallow the nameless anger of the owner.

"Well, get it for me first, there are a few pieces counted, and the rest don't be in a hurry, wait for the completion of the guests, and then rush to make it" Liang Zijun eased his face and ordered.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he beat the side drum in his heart again, and said that he was not in a hurry, but looking at this face, he was afraid that he would not be able to do it all, so he had a plan in his heart, and promised "I will ask the guy to pack it for you and put it on the cabinet, are you keeping accounts or the old rules of silver?"

"The old rule, no credit! What's the situation in the store?" Liang Zijun sat for a while and then lost his anger, and he didn't bother to do it.

Since the age of 14, he has been taking care of the cloth shop business for him, and this is 6 years, and he can't make mistakes on weekdays, although he is two decades older than himself, but he has always been polite in front of himself, and he has never relied on his age and qualifications to take Qiao, but he has also won the trust of Liang Zijun.

"Most of the silk and satin you bought last time were used to make autumn shirts for your customers, and the rest were sold at the counter, and the rest of the fabric was not enough to sell until the end of the year. This year's harvest is good, and there are many rich people who have picked good materials to make new shirts, I am afraid that you will have to take a trip to Nancheng to purchase a batch of new fabrics.

"Well, I know, go back and make a list of the materials that are easy to sell to me, it was also a busy season a year ago, prepare more thick materials to be prepared, and the province will run for nothing like last time" Liang Zijun frowned.

The sudden departure before the autumn harvest was precisely because of the lack of fabric in the store, which inevitably delayed the business and had to go out of the city in a hurry to purchase, not wanting the pre-set quantity to go wrong, and the shopkeeper of the merchant privately moved it to other cloth mills. Liang Zijun had to run a few more commercial houses and spend a high price to make up some money.

If you play a moth again this time, I am afraid that I will have to go south to the original village to buy fabrics, although the price can be much cheaper, but it takes more time on the road, and it is more dangerous.

Unless it is a last resort, Liang Zijun does not want to travel too far, first, the journey is tiring, and second, the longer the journey, the more dangerous the journey, in case of encountering road bandits or robbers, it is a trivial matter to lose some money, and it is not worth hurting his life.

Therefore, Liang Zijun would rather spend a high price to buy fabrics than take risks in person, anyway, these price differences can be earned back from other aspects, and there is no need to take care of one or the other for that little profit.

"I'll prepare it for you tomorrow, and let the guy send you to the house" The shopkeeper bowed his waist and bowed, and after speaking, he opened the door and went out to tell the man to wrap the clothes that the owner wanted.

Liang Zijun sat in the store for a while, then got up and went downstairs to take the burden handed to him by the second shopkeeper, opened a corner casually and looked through it, pulled out a moon-white belly pocket, pulled the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "This embroidery skill is good, is there still it in the store?"

The second shopkeeper immediately took another one from the shelf and said, "Yes, I happened to send these two pieces today, if it is a day later, I am afraid that I will not be able to keep it for you." This can be regarded as the top grade in our store, this embroidery lady rarely takes on small jobs on weekdays, and there are only a few small clothes that flow out of her hands, each of which is an object snapped up by the old customers, the third master has a good eye and feels sorry for his daughter-in-law, these two pieces are made of fine rain silk brocade, and the material is the most silky and obedient."

The second shopkeeper praised the lotus flower, Liang Sanye is a good customer, generous and knowledgeable, who sells small clothes, if Liang Sanye is happy, he can throw a half or two pieces of silver as a reward, and every time Liang Zijun enters the store, he is the master of the various shopkeepers rushing to receive him.

Liang Zijun took the pink belly pocket, looked at the gorgeous golden chrysanthemum embroidered on it, hooked his lips and smiled, "It's wrapped"

The second shopkeeper happily accepted the reward, took over the packing work with his own hands, and counted the silver money to keep the account, "a plain brocade piping shirt, a soft satin lotus leaf robe, plus two rain silk brocade coats, and three sets of jacquard silk underwear." A total of 22 taels of silver"

Liang Zijun casually threw out three 10 taels of silver ingots, took 8 taels of broken silver, and carried the package out of the Liang Ji Cloth Workshop.

In Liang Ji's delay, the sky was dark after coming out, if he went back to the other courtyard and led the horse to the north gate, it is estimated that the city gate would have been closed early. Liang Zijun was not busy rushing back to Liangjia Village, so he went back to the courtyard to put the cloth bag away, and then went out to find a place in the restaurant he was used to, and sent his men to find the three of them to get together.

Chen Qing was forcibly driven out of the county by Liang Zijun, and he only felt ashamed that he was wearing a poor sour, although he felt resentful, he didn't take it seriously. Meimei had a meal, and the road was full of heat, and she walked for less than half an hour, and it was dark when she arrived at Liangjia Village.

I entered the house in the dark, went directly into the firewood room after washing, lit the oil lamp, stuffed the embroidery into the bamboo basket by the bright light, and folded the straw paper and rice paper I bought today twice and cut it to the size of A4 paper.

The paper used to write letters should not be too large, and if you make a book, you need to fold it in half again.

Chen Qing has his own brush, and Liang Zijun's study has no shortage of inkstones and ink strips, so he can write letters to his sister after buying stationery. Some words are not easy to convey in person, let alone be explained clearly in a few words, and the idea of facilitating communication in the future was also saved when teaching the girl to read and write.

In ten days, the winter will begin, Chen Qing turned out his jacket and prepared to take it out to dry tomorrow while the weather was good.

The closer to winter, the more festivals, the farmers are not very particular, and they will make a few seasonal meals to celebrate the festival. A few days ago, just after the Chongyang Festival, after the beginning of winter, it came to the Winter Clothes Festival, followed by the Xia Yuan, the winter solstice, Laba, the sacrificial stove, Chinese New Year's Eve, and the Spring Festival, this year ends with 16 festivals, large and small, and the new year will begin after the Spring Festival.

Chen Qingcat's preparations before winter have been sufficient, from the food prepared by humans and animals in winter, to the dry firewood and charcoal stored in front of the firewood stove. Whenever after the beginning of winter, when there is no short-term work to do, Chen Qing and Chen Bi sit on the hot kang embroidery, although this year can not be with Chen Bi cat winter, but think of the sister at this moment has a lover by her side, and I feel relieved.

As if he had finally completed the first important goal in his life, Chen Qing felt a little at a loss for the following days. When he was young, he worked hard to support his sister, and when he was a little older, he desperately saved up a dowry for his sister, and his sister easily married a good family, but Chen Qing suddenly lost the goal of struggle.

It seems that the first life is completely for Chen Bi, and his future plan is only to marry a daughter-in-law and live a good life.

But this daughter-in-law doesn't have to marry, and what should she do after paying off her debts? Forget it, aren't there still debts that have not been paid off? Instead of worrying about life in the future, it is better to start saving money desperately now.

A fence was made at the door of the chicken coop, which could be closed at night to block the wind, and the nest was covered with thick hay to keep out the cold. The pigsty is reinforced with wooden stakes around it, and the cracks in the earthen wall are plastered with mud.

After feeding the refined food and sprinkling a handful of pigweed, Chen Qing rubbed his hands and returned to the yard. The in-laws have gone to the capital, Chen Qing does not have to find opportunities to show his face every once in a while, and he is comfortable in the courtyard every day.

Seeing that the sun was full at noon, Chen Qing took out the bedding in the bedroom and patted it to dry, and even the books in the study were taken out and spread out on the bluestone slab to see the daylight.

When Liang Zijun arrived home, Chen Qing was holding a rattan paddle and patting the quilt hard, with a cloth towel around his mouth and nose

Liang Zijun wrapped the cloth

Chen Qing put the cloth bag, and after a few handfuls of shooting, he put down the rattan and patted it into the stove room to start a fire in the pot, add water to boil, add vegetable leaves, dried shrimp and fine salt, and then beat the eggs and pour them into the pot to float a full layer of egg flowers.

Remove the heat from the pot and warm it, scoop another pot of noodles, divide half of it, add warm water to knead it into a dough, and let the cover rest for a quarter of an hour. Mix half of the dough with salt and let it sit for another quarter of an hour.

Chen Qing plans to make two kinds of bread, one is scallion pancake and the other is pocket cake. The scallion pancake is the kind of salty and fragrant pancake that Chen Qing has eaten in the county, and the pocket pancake can be eaten with fillings.

The filling of the pocket cake is shredded with carrots, fungus, and chili peppers, and then fried with shredded meat.

After the filling is stir-fried, knead the dough into strips and divide into small pieces. Press the small agent flat and roll it into a dough, brush the middle with oil, brush the edges with water, and then cover it with another sheet and press the edges tightly. Fry in the pan until golden brown on both sides, take it out when the middle is bulging, cut it into two pocket cakes from the middle, and serve with the fried filling.

Onion pancakes are made by brushing a layer of oil on the dough, sprinkled with chopped green onions, and then rolling the dough along the long sides and rolling it into thin strips. Roll up the two ends of the strip to the middle to form two dough rolls, overlap the two dough rolls, press them slightly flat, and then roll them into round cakes with a rolling pin, and then dip the two sides of the round cakes with sesame seeds, and fry them in a pot over low heat until both sides are golden brown and ripe.

After making two simple pasta dishes, Chen Qing brought egg soup and cakes into the hall on trays.

Liang Zijun obviously prefers pocket cakes with side dishes, and swallows one in three or two bites in his hand. Chen Qing bit the scallion pancake and ate it slowly with egg soup, eating a lot for breakfast, and eating two cushions to cushion his stomach when he was not too hungry.

After eating, Chen Qing took the cloth bag and tidied it up, looking at the two sets of clothes that were obviously the little brother and the two familiar belly pockets with a tangled expression.

Liang Zijun lay in bed and took a nap, squinted his eyes and said lightly, "Throw away your torn clothes quickly, don't wear them all day long like a flower child."

Chen Qing's fingers paused slightly, quickly tidied them up and stuffed them into the wardrobe, and turned around and walked out of the bedroom without saying anything. Liang Zijun squinted his eyes in a slight mood and soon fell asleep.
