Chapter 49: Forty-Nine

Ru Ji was stunned, and was somewhat frightened by the heroic spirit of this beautiful girl. The so-called heroes don't suffer immediate losses, and good women must be knowledgeable and not be cannon fodder. immediately took a step back: "The matter between Miss Liu and Chen Zhutou has nothing to do with me, the two of you will talk slowly, and I will leave first." After that, he turned around and left, avoiding the entanglement between Liu Chengyin and Chen Hao.

After walking dozens of steps, the entangled voice behind him was finally completely inaudible. Ruji's heart was itchy like a small insect crawling, but she couldn't help but didn't look back to see what the situation was.

At this time, Cai Wan pulled her sleeve, and Ru Xi noticed that she had unconsciously arrived at the auspicious cloth village where Chen Run was an apprentice. In fact, the location of Jixiang Buzhuang is not bad, although the house of the shop pΓΉ is not big, it is relatively new, but the shopkeeper Hu Erniang looks at it and it is very difficult to deal with. People themselves may not want to sell the shop, and they must be entangled for a long time. However, it's all here, and if you can't buy a shop, you can also see the situation first.

Ru Xi glanced at Cai Wan, who had obviously flown in, and then turned into Jixiang Buzhuang. Who knew that there was no one at the counter, but there was constantly Hu Erniang's sharp scolding accompanied by crackling, about the sound of something like a feather duster beating people.

Cai Wan's reaction at this moment was like Ji faster, and his heart immediately rose to his throat, and he took two steps forward and shouted: "Buy cloth, is there anyone?" ”

"It's coming, it's coming!" There was another snap, it seemed that Hu Erniang hit her harder again, and then she lifted the curtain to the front, and the fierce color on her face never disappeared, and the smile that was quickly squeezed out disappeared the moment she saw Ruxi and Cai Wan.

Maybe this is the instinct of a sophisticated businessman, although Hu Erniang doesn't seem to be a good person, it doesn't mean that she doesn't have the ability to do business and see people. Although Ru Ji once asked a lot about buying cloth with a lion's mouth, Hu Erniang intuitively felt that this business would not succeed. Especially if she wore a red embroidered satin dress today, and there were two or three pieces of jewelry and hairpins inlaid with beads and emeralds on her head, she knew at a glance that she was not an ordinary Chinese woman, and she didn't look like she would buy the coarse cotton cloth in this store.

"Yo, what kind of cloth do the girls buy?" Hu Erniang crossed her waist with one hand, looking up and down at Ruxi and Cai Wan Xia Yue.

Cai Yun's eyes couldn't help but turn to the curtain behind the counter, and Hu Erniang's eyes were even more unfriendly.

"I want to see that cloth." Ru Ji pointed casually and clicked on the tallest horse on the shelf next to him.

It was a dark coarse cloth, a little lighter than the usual silk color, and the texture was coarse. Hu Erniang frowned, seeing that the shelves and cabinets below were not exactly the same, although she felt that Ru Xi should not buy it, she didn't refuse, turned her head and shouted: "Little rabbit, come out to work!" ”

Chen Run really answered and came out, opened the curtain and was stunned when he saw Ruxi and Cai Yun. He was originally a smart and flexible young man, even if he didn't forget it, it can be regarded as a good memory, not to mention that the last time he talked about the case of the shopkeeper of Sui for so long in the Chen family, of course he remembered Ruji and Cai Wan.

Hu Erniang couldn't help squinting her eyes, a sneer floated, and she reached out to pinch Chen Run's arm: "What a daze, work quickly!" Go and get that ingredient down for the guest! ”

Chen Run was in pain, but he didn't make a sound, his originally fair and delicate face was red and seemed to be a little swollen, and he just lowered his head after receiving this blow, and then took the high cloth according to his words.

Chen Run's own clothes are similar to the material of the coarse cloth, and the pulp is very clean, but there are many places for sewing and mending, and the sleeves seem to be a little shorter. This thing reached for the top of his hand, and his arms were exposed, and the arms were blue, purple, and black, as if he had opened a color shop, and there were rattan scars mixed with traces of pinching.

Cai Wan's eyes were almost red, and Ru Ji was also on fire. Chen Run is only about fifteen years old, a proper child laborer underage, although human rights were almost equal to zero in ancient times, this scar will still shock the sympathetic normal people.

"How much does this cloth cost?" Ru Ji hadn't figured out how to get Chen Run away, so she was perfunctory at the moment.

Hu Erniang saw that Ruxi and Cai Wan obviously cared about Chen Run, and she was also surprised in her heart, and she was a little disdainful: "Three hundred dollars." ”

"This rag is worth three hundred dollars?" Cai Wan saw that Hu Erniang was as open as the last time, so he rushed out.

"Cut, don't come if you don't like it." The corners of Hu Erniang's mouth twitched, "The little lady is really here to buy cloth?" Or are you here to hook up with a man? ”

This is really vulgar, and it is not the same way as the quarrel in the official house, usually whoever can go out and sprinkle can win, not to mention the number of paragraphs in Caiyun, Ru Ji does not have shrewd street fighting skills.

"Shopkeeper!" Chen Run was a little anxious, "Don't talk nonsense-"

"Smack!" With a crisp sound, Hu Erniang turned around and slapped him: "Little rabbit, it's against you!" Didn't you know just now? You little bastard, no wonder you dare to steal the old lady's money," Hu Erniang scolded all the way, pulled Chen Run's ears all the way, and pinched him indiscriminately, "Say, did you steal the old lady's money to hook up with each other?" ”

Chen Run didn't dodge much, but gritted his teeth and couldn't bear the pain: "I didn't steal money......"

"None? How can there be less money without money! Hu Erniang suddenly pulled out the silver hairpin on her head with her backhand and was about to poke it.

"Summer Moon!" Ru Xi couldn't stand it anymore, and Hu Erniang's rudeness and roughness made her stunned for a moment, but she finally reacted at this time.

I saw Xia Yue stepping forward quickly, just like the original Ming Green Sakura uniform Ruyan, with both hands, the right hand crossed the block, and the left hand took Hu Erniang's wrist and pinched it. Listening to the sound of "ding", the silver hairpin fell to the ground, and Hu Erniang also exhaled in pain.

Ru Xi looked at Chen Run like a battered child, and personally took two steps forward to pull Chen Run behind him, and then asked Hu Erniang: "Why do you beat people like this, do you have any real evidence?" ”

Hu Erniang's right hand asked Xia Yue to pinch the part where the radius bone was connected to the wrist bone, only to feel that the expressionless maid's hand was like an iron tong, and the tears of pain instantly burst out but couldn't break free. She is accustomed to seeing conflicts in the market, so she naturally knows who can squeeze a few words and who can't afford to offend. It's just that the Ruji in front of her is not like a rich and noble, but rather in the middle ground of "can be run" and "can't be offended". But who Chen Run is, Hu Erniang is still very clear, and in an instant, her heart turned to the channel of death, and her reason is very simple, how can anyone look at Chen Run, a little rabbit cub who has no father, no mother, no money, and no patience!

"Let go, let go! What are you going to do? The sky is blue, oh yo, do you still want to kill! Hu Erniang naturally struggled desperately first, and scolded Chen Run: "Little rabbit, you can't come over to help!" ”

Ru Xi had actually only been with Xia Yue for two days, and she didn't know how high Xia Yue's force value was, and she didn't want to really hurt Hu Erniang, so she nodded: "Xia Yue." ”

Xia Yue immediately let go and took a half step back.

Hu Erniang breathed a sigh of relief, rubbing her wrists, but she didn't dare to step forward and tear Chen Run over to beat her, she just raised her eyebrows and glared at Ru Xi: "My own apprentice and nephew, how to beat and scold, do you care!" What's the matter, looking at how much of a human this kid looks, he still feels distressed? ”

Ru Xi glared at Hu Erniang coldly: "If you say something like this again, I asked Xia Yue to knock out your teeth, believe it or not?" ”

Xia Yue moved her shoulders and arms very cooperatively, and her body turned sideways, as if she could pounce at any time, so that the first formal violent personal attack intimidation energy in Ru Xi's life reached max!

Hu Erniang instinctively felt that this scene could happen, and immediately became half a head shorter, but she was still holding on: "You ...... Don't scare people here, this is the root of the imperial city, and there is a king's law! ”

Ru Xi sneered: "Do you know that there is a royal law?" He's an apprentice in your shop, and he's not a slave who sells himself to you, so why are you hurting people like this! ”

"Whose apprentice can't discipline it yet? You-" Hu Erniang glanced at Xia Yue, but finally changed her words, "You girl's family is nosy!" ”

"Can I take care of this matter?" A calm voice came from the door of the store, and Chen Hao, who was dressed in a fast hunting uniform, patted him on the waist knife intentionally or unintentionally, which made him even more heroic.

When Hu Erniang saw Chen Hao, she immediately changed her face completely: "Oops, Chen Zhutou." Hehe, hehe, what kind of joke are you talking about, it's just a trivial matter of managing the apprentice......"

Ruxi turned around and asked Chen Run, "Do you want to sue her for hurting people?" ”

Chen Run was naturally grateful to Ruji, but he still hesitated when he heard this: "Go to court...... I don't need to, I'm actually not a big deal......"

"That's it," Hu Erniang said busily, "It's just two hits, and I'm going to go to court." ”

"Hit twice, is this two?" Ru Xi said angrily, pulled Chen Run's arm and showed it to Chen Hao, and then showed Hu Erniang, "Is he your son or your minion, why are you so ruthless to him?" If there is any internal injury, can you take responsibility? ”

"Ahem." Chen Hao quietly reached out and pulled Chen Run's sleeve, Chen Run actually blushed a little, so he took advantage of the situation to withdraw his arm.

Hu Erniang didn't have any scruples when she saw Ru Xi's actions, and felt more and more that Ru Xi had something to do with Chen Run, but at this moment, not only Xia Yue, but also Chen Hao was present, so she didn't dare to talk nonsense, her eyes rolled, and she said perfunctorily: "Well, Cheng Chengcheng, what the girl said is, then I won't beat him anymore." ”

Ru Xi snorted, and asked Chen Run: "This shopkeeper is very bad, you don't want her to be an apprentice, I just lack a small servant, I don't want you to sell yourself to take refuge, as long as you come over to help me run errands like an apprentice, if I have a store in the future, you will go to the store to do some chores, are you willing?" ”
