19, wolf peach

Coming out of Li Siyu's house, Shu Yierha sat in her own carriage, Mama Li and Zijuan accompanied her in the car, she thought about it and said: "It's rare to go out, I heard my brother say that there is a southern goods shop on Yaowangmiao Street, specializing in selling some southern specialties, I heard that there are many interesting and fresh objects, it's still early, let's turn around and take a look." ”

Mama Li wanted to persuade a few words, and thought that Gege had an idea, and when she came out, she brought a lot of people, and they watched, and she didn't expect anything to happen, so she swallowed the words of advice back into her stomach, lifted the curtain and ordered the car to go to Yaowangmiao Street.

Shu Yierha saw Zijuan's expression on his face, and couldn't help laughing: "Say whatever you want, what are you hesitating to do?"

Zijuan smiled embarrassedly, first glanced at Mama Li, and said: "Gege, the slave maid is at Li Gege's house today, and I heard a few gossips, which are related to her family's second Gege, I don't know if I should tell Gege...... "Mama Li once taught her not to inquire about things, not to talk about people behind her back, she was afraid that Mama Li would talk about her, and the more she talked, the quieter her voice became.

"When I go out, you are my eyes and ears, and whatever I see or hear, I should naturally tell sΓΉ I know, as long as I don't spread it out. Say, what have you heard?" Shu Yierha was originally a little curious about Li Siyu's sister, but it was not easy to inquire, since Zijuan heard something, she naturally wanted to hear it.

Zijuan saw that Shu Yierha said this, and Mama Li didn't make a sound, knowing that she had done nothing wrong, she smiled and said: " Because Mama Li taught the slave and maid that they were not allowed to talk nonsense outside, nor were they allowed to inquire about things indiscriminately, so the slave and maid did not know much, but the two mothers-in-law said a few words that were heard by the slave and maid, and they said that the Ergege used to rely on his biological mother to be favored and bullied Li Gege, and Li Gege suffered several losses, and now that her biological mother is gone, she still does not change her life, and she can't see the shape clearly at all, and said that Mrs. Li is ready to find a strict grandmother to teach Ergege the rules, and in the future, Ergege will have some sins, and nothing else. ”

Shu Yierha nodded, she felt strange, it stands to reason that there are guests at home, even if they are not familiar with Ergege, they should see each other and salute each other, Li Siyu doesn't look like a person who doesn't understand the rules, he didn't even call her, it seems that the relationship between the two sisters is really bad, Li Siyu was angry with her before, and now he doesn't want to pay attention to her, but it makes sense.

Just know about other people's affairs, Shu Yierha didn't want to make friends with Li Siyu's sister, and she didn't plan to care about other people's wives and concubines, just forget it after hearing it, and told Zijuan not to tell others anymore, and explained that she was not allowed to talk about her family's affairs, Zijuan nodded again and again to assure, Shu Yierha knew that she knew the proportion, so she didn't say more.

Unconsciously, when she arrived at the southern goods store that Shu Yierha was looking for, she held Mama Li's hand and stepped on the stool to get out of the car, and the coachman Feng Liu said: "Gege, it's not good to park here, and the slave is waiting for you in front of the road." Shu Yierha waved his hand, and he drove away.

Shu Yierha looked up, the plaque was written in the South Store, she couldn't help laughing, thinking that the owner of the shop was either a humorous person, or he had no goods in his stomach and gave a random name, but she didn't know which situation.

Walking into the store, four or five customers were picking and choosing, two guys greeted, and when they saw Shu Yierha and his party, one of them hurriedly stepped forward and greeted with a smile: "This young lady is the first time to come back to us, right? I don't know what you want to buy?" ”

Shu Yierha nodded casually, and went to the shelves to look at them one by one, the things looked very good, most of them were really uncommon in the north, but for Shu Yierha, it was not a rare goods, and the quality of the goods was just average, Shu Yierha was a little disdainful, and was slightly disappointed in his heart, only picked a set of bamboo carved pen holders and pen holders and planned to leave, Mama Li took things to settle the bill, Shu Yierha walked out of the door first, but stopped when he walked to the door.

Shu Yierha glanced at Zijuan, Zijuan immediately beckoned to call his man, Shu Yierha pointed to a pot of plants at the door and asked, "What is this?" If she is not mistaken, this should be a tomato, she has seen it for the first time in several years.

The guy smiled: "You asked the little one is the right person, except for me, others really don't know! This thing is called wolf peach, we didn't have it in the Qing Dynasty, it was brought by Westerners, because the fruit is round and red, it looks very good, they are given as gifts, my shopkeeper helped a foreigner the year before last, he sent two to the shopkeeper, this pot is planted with the seeds left last year, the shopkeeper said, this thing is rare, put at the door as a fresh. ”

Shu Yierha thought to herself, sure enough, she was not mistaken, this is really a tomato, she likes to eat tomatoes, but she hasn't seen it since she came here, and now that she sees it, she can't help but want to get it back, so she said to the guy: "This thing looks very good, I also want to plant a few at home, I don't know if you sell it?"

The man hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Don't you dare to sell this!" Miss, just take a look, or don't touch your hands, I heard that the fruit is poisonous, and if something happens, the small one can't afford to eat it! Don't be embarrassed about the small one......

Where is Shu Yierha willing to stop, but she doesn't want to stand at the door of someone's store and argue with others, so she took half a step back, and Zijuan stepped forward and said, "If it's poisonous, what do you mean by putting it at the door of the store?

"If you don't know what you're not afraid of, as long as you don't eat it......" the guy hurriedly explained.

Zijuan said: "Since we know that we can't eat it, our family naturally won't eat it, but we just want to look good.

The guy smiled bitterly, saying that he couldn't call the shots, and wanted to ask the shopkeeper, so Shu Yierha waited for him to ask, and after a while, a man in his thirties and forties came with the guy, first gave Shu Yierha a salute, and then compensated for the guy, confirmed that Shu Yierha must ask for it, and then he said: "Since Miss likes it, this pot will be given to Miss, and it should be regarded as making amends to Miss." ”

Shuyierha said, "Is this the only pot? I want to raise a few more!"

The shopkeeper said with a wry smile: "Westerners say that the fruit of this thing is poisonous, and it will have diarrhea after eating. ”

Shu Yierha couldn't tell whether what he said was true or false, but she didn't like to embarrass people, thinking that as long as it could be fruitful, it would not be as much as she wanted in the future, so she would not be reluctant, let people carry the basin away, she gave Mama Li a look, Mama Li threw a silver ingot of ten taels to the shopkeeper, and he couldn't accept it.

When Shu Yierha and his party walked away, the shopkeeper said to himself: "If I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have taken it out to show off, I hope something else will happen...... The guy lowered his head on the side and didn't dare to say anything.

Shu Yier Ha didn't know other people's worries, she was thinking about having tomatoes to eat again, and after getting in the car, Mama Li persuaded: "Gege, what kind of wolf peach is that, it doesn't sound like a good thing, let's just throw it away......"

Shu Yierha is in a good mood, and is rarely willing to explain two sentences: "I finally got it, how can I throw it away? Mama don't worry, the shopkeeper said it was poisonous, but they didn't know, I read a book that recorded that the fruit was green and ate diarrhea, and it was fine after eating it was red, if Mama didn't believe it, and when it bore fruit, let's pick two and feed the chickens to try, if the chickens and ducks ate it, the person will naturally eat it, and Mama said that it is not this reason?"

Mama Li saw that Shu Yier was resolute, and knew that it was useless to say more, and she felt that it made sense to listen to what Shu Yier said, so she didn't persuade more, but she was still not at ease in her heart, and decided that after returning home, this pot of wolf peaches must be put under her nose, and only after making sure that there is no problem can Gege be contacted. Shu Yierha naturally didn't know what she was thinking, seeing that she was silent, she thought that she had persuaded her, and she was complacent about her eloquence!
