Chapter 36: Taken as a slave
Li Mingcian looked at the man a few times, but didn't see anything. He could only hesitantly say "Wait a minute", and then went into the back house to report to Shen Xiqiao.
Mama Wang was directing the Wang family to clean up the house for her at this time, and she frowned when she saw Li Mingcian running over.
"Sanya, what are you doing here?" Mama Wang stood at the door, watching the little girl with a pair of eyes.
She is so tired of this little girl, she always goes to the son's side, she is really a toad who wants to eat swan meat, I don't know what to say.
If Li Mingcian knew what she thought, it was estimated that she would vomit three liters of blood and provoke.
I'm just a seven-year-old girl, you make me think so dirty. However, hehe, Shen Xiqiao may really marry me in the future. If Shen Xichuan is powerful.
I don't know how Shen Xichuan persuaded his family to agree to Shen Xiqiao marrying her, but it doesn't matter. Even if the Shen family doesn't agree with Shen Xiqiao marrying her, she can still blackmail them in the future?
"Mama, I'm here to inform the little boy that the shopkeeper of Yunweaving Rouge asks to see me. Li Mingcicada kept at his feet, and swished to the Shenxi Bridge house. Mama Wang looked at her neat little figure from behind, and she was angry.
Shen Xiqiao was reading a book in the house, and the breeze outside the window was blowing slowly, which was very comfortable. Just as I was watching, I heard Li Mingcian and Mama Wang talking in the courtyard. Knowing that Li Mingcian was looking for him, Shen Xiqiao stood up and went over to open the door.
"Shen Xiqiao, the shopkeeper of Yunweaving Rouge wants to see you. Li Mingcian ran to the door of Shenxi Bridge with a smile.
"Okay, you wait for me. Shen Xiqiao straightened his clothes and hair, and then stepped out of the door, "Let's go." ”
While walking, Shen Xiqiao remembered that Li Mingcian called him by his name when he was alone with him, but he called Xiao Gongzi and others to Mama Wang, Banyue and others. This Li Mingcian is still a master who watches people cook.
The more Shen Xiqiao thought about it, the more he wanted to laugh, and when he looked down at Li Mingciao, he could only see that her waist was straight, and two hairs were tied on the top of her head, tied with red ropes. The red rope floats around and floats, which is very cute. It's just that the red rope is a little faded and not too bright.
"Mingciao, when is your birthday?" asked Shen Xiqiao with his head down at Li Mingchan.
Li Mingcian was stunned when he heard this: "Is it your birthday? I really don't know this." I didn't have a birthday. ”
Shen Xiqiao looked at Li Mingciao's somewhat stunned appearance, and felt a little uncomfortable. I'm so old, I haven't had a birthday yet, and I don't know when my birthday is. It looks a little pathetic. That's it, you don't have to wait to give gifts, you can give them if you want.
If Li Mingcian knew that she felt pitiful, she would probably roll her eyes. In the poor countryside, it is very happy to be well fed and warmly dressed, and where do you care about the birthday or not. In the face of survival, celebrating a birthday is hypocrisy. What's more, she hasn't seen anyone celebrate her birthday since she arrived in ancient times, and Old Man Li's kind of patriarch is no exception.
Shen Xiqiao and Li Mingcian said a few words without a match, and then went to the reception room in the front yard.
The shopkeeper of Yunzhi Rouge was sitting on a chair resting, next to the tea that Erya helped him brew. Seeing Shen Xiqiao enter the door, he quickly stood up to greet him.
"Second son Shen. The shopkeeper arched his hand, "Under is Chen Wanfu, the shopkeeper of the cloud weaving rouge, who came uninvited, and hoped to forgive his sins." ”
Shen Xiqiao stepped into the house: "Okay, I don't know what the shopkeeper is doing here?"
Chen Wanfu followed two steps and stood in front of him: "I came here this time to discuss business with my son. ”
"What business?" Shen Xiqiao sat down in the main seat, stretched out his hand to let Chen Wanfu, "Please take a seat." ”
After Chen Wanfu thanked him, he looked at Shen Xiqiao and smiled honestly: "Son, this business is soap." ”
When Li Mingcian heard this, oh, the soap was taken care of again! She was very happy, and she only felt that the silver was rolling towards her.
Shen Xiqiao glanced at the silly and happy Li Mingciao, pursed the corners of his mouth and suppressed the smile: "It's easy to say." It depends on what you offer. ”
Chen Wanfu stretched out his hand and compared it to three.
Shen Xiqiao reached out and touched the table, intending to drink tea, but ended up with an empty cup. He couldn't help but stiffen, and then turned his head to look at Li Mingcian.
Li Mingcian stared at him blankly. He glared at Li Mingciao, and then glanced at her and asked her to pour tea.
Li Mingcian didn't want to pour it when he looked at him like that, but he was under the eaves, so he had to bow his head! Li Mingcian picked up the tea made by Erya and poured a cup for Shen Xiqiao.
Shen Xiqiao looked at her with satisfaction, then took a sip of tea.
Damn! There are too few tea leaves! And it's overcooked! Not to mention bitter, it's really not delicious.
Shen Xiqiao took a sip and swallowed it reluctantly, and then looked at Chen Wanfu: "Divide me with three points, do you only use the formula?"
Chen Wanfu twisted his beard, which was not long: "Yes, but there is another requirement, that is, except for the Kozhi rouge in the house, no other shops are allowed to sell soap." ”
Li Mingcian stood beside Shen Xiqiao and listened to them, and she was very excited to listen to Chen Wanfu's words. This shopkeeper is smart, this is to monopolize!
When Shen Xiqiao heard it, it seemed to be okay. However, according to Mama Wang, soap is selling very well, and this three-point profit is a lot, but maybe I can talk about it again.
"Five points. The lion on Shenxi Bridge opened his mouth.
Chen Wanfu was neither humble nor arrogant and continued to talk about the conditions: "Four points, no more." And if you have a four-point profit, I still have one condition, that is, the formula will continue to be supplied. In the future, a new recipe for your soap will be supplied to us. ”
Li Mingcian heard it, this is okay, because he is not a chemistry student, he can make a handmade soap and it will be a fantasy, and the new formula or adjusting the formula is basically a fantasy.
Shen Xiqiao didn't know if Li Mingcian could still make something new, so he motioned for her to refill the water, and then asked her with his eyes: "Can you agree to this?"
Li Mingcian gave him a firm look: "Of course you can agree." ”
Shen Xiqiao took a sip of the unpalatable tea: "Okay." ”
Chen Wanfu got up and took out a stack of notes: "Shen Gongzi, according to the rules, we have to set up a note." ”
Li Mingcian looked at this posture, yo, it seems that this is all ready.
Shen Xi opened the bridge and found that it was the content of the long-term supply of the four-point profit formula, and he couldn't help but feel that the businessman was a thief.
The notes were written in triplicate, one of which was handed over to a commercial bank in Qishan County for safekeeping.
After getting the note, Chen Wanfu was still a little surprised. I really didn't expect this little boy to be so easy to fool and agree so happily. How did he know that what Shen Xiqiao was doing was actually a one-shot deal, and there was no follow-up formula supply at all.
It was almost noon after Chen Wanfu left, and after Wang helped Mama Wang clean up the house, he went to clean the backyard and feed the horses by the way. Mama Wang thought that the little master hadn't eaten her cooking for many days, so she went into the kitchen to cook with great interest.
The Shen family's kitchen is very spacious, plus the fresh ingredients and various seasonings she brought. Mama Wang was in a very happy mood and made a large table of delicious food.
In Mama Wang's opinion, there is only one master in the family, Shen Xiqiao, so when it was time to eat, she waited for Shen Xiqiao to eat, and at the same time called Erya and Li Mingcian to wait on the side.
Wang prepared a small table of food in the kitchen in the front yard, and when Li Cunfu and Li Jingming returned home, they ate it in their own room.
Li Jingming saw that Erya and Li Mingcian were not there, so he was about to call them, but Wang quickly stopped him.
"Your sister is helping Mama Wang in the back. ”
Li Jingming was a little angry when he heard this: "At this time, the little boy is eating." My sister is not a descendant of the Shen family, why should she serve when she eats?!"
Seeing that he was shouting, Wang quickly waved his hand: "It doesn't have to be to serve the meal! ”
Li Jingming reluctantly went back to the table and sat down: "I'll go to repair the house in the afternoon." When our house is finished, let Mrs. Liu help the sacrificial house do the practice, and we will move back to live. ”
Wang is also looking forward to returning to his own home. I am more comfortable in my own home, and I only work in my own home. It's just that there were people dead there, and she felt cautious.
In the backyard, Shen Xiqiao was also angry about this. But Mama Wang is his own nurse, he really can't say her in front of the Li sisters, so that she has no face.
However, Mama Wang is his nurse, not Li Mingciao's nurse. She arrogantly set rules for Li Mingciao, and she Li Mingcian off.
"There must be a standing phase when standing, and there must be a sitting phase when sitting. There is no place for you to sit in the presence of the child, unless it is the grace of the childe that allows you to sit. You can sit then, but you have to give thanks. ”
When Mama Wang gave Shen Xiqiao vegetables, she asked the sisters to stand on the side, and when Shen Xiqiao finished eating and rinsed her mouth, she began to set rules for the sisters.
At first, Li Mingcian didn't understand what she meant, but when she understood what Mama Wang meant, her anger suddenly rose.
"Mama Wang, we are not the descendants of your mansion. It's unreasonable for you to set rules for us like this, right?" Li Mingcian glanced at Shen Xiqiao with a sneering smile.
Shen Xiqiao was a little embarrassed by her glance.
Mama Wang has never known the twists and turns between Li Mingcian and Shen Xiqiao, she has always felt that Li Mingcian is a shameless girl, so she is particularly shameless when she talks about her.
"Hmph, since you live in my Shen family's house, then you have to listen to the rules of our Shen family......" Mama Wang looked at Li Mingcian contemptuously.
Li Mingcian took a step towards Shenxi Bridge: "Mama Wang, please figure it out." Your son-in-law lived in my house, and he was assassinated and destroyed my house before we moved in. As for our house, you still owe us our house. ”
Grandma Wang didn't know about this, but she still stiffened her neck: "Our son is kind to you, what about your house to protect him once?"
Erya was so frightened when she saw that Li Mingcian and Mama Wang were facing each other, and hurriedly reached out to pull her.
Li Mingcian grabbed Erya's hand and didn't give an inch.
"Your son-in-law is kind to us?" Li Mingcian bared his teeth at Mama Wang, "Mama Wang, why don't you want to think about what kindness we have to your son-in-law? Can your son-in-law's kindness be greater than our kindness to his life? Can your Shen Mansion allow you to humiliate your benefactor like this? What about your rules?"
