Chapter 149: Opportunity
Dou Miaojing came back to her senses, and touched her face a little stupidly. Finally, he asked the big treasurer, "What's the matter?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled and asked, "Miss and you, what kind of chain and what kind of pendant do you like?" Here is the pattern, do you want to sit in the private room and pick it slowly? Shaoyue and Yinping Girl are now in the workshop, curious about how those hairpin bracelets are made, presumably they won't come back for a while. ”
"Oh." Dou Miaojing took the pattern and obediently went upstairs. When I arrived at the private room, the big shopkeeper had already arranged everything, and there was an urn of freshly boiled ginger syrup on the table, which was steaming, "It's careful." She muttered this, and then boredly flipped through the pictures and took a sip of ginger syrup.
She is not a person who likes to wear gold and silver, her eyes are full of color books, and she only feels that her eyes are full of gold stars, and she can't pick out one. I had to rely on my understanding of my sister, so I picked one first, and then I really couldn't pick it out, so I just forgot about it. The big shopkeeper put the batch of red agate ordered by Dou Pei in a tray and brought it in, and asked Dou Miaojing to pick up the pendant.
She likes this, those strange or ghostly natural agate have not yet been carved by the workshop, and Dou Pei asked her to pick a novelty.
After choosing for a long time, Dou Miaojing picked a thumb-thick straight material for her sister, and asked the big shopkeeper to carve a Bodhisattva according to the natural form of the material, and then cast the edge with gold wire. The big shopkeeper praised her for her good eyesight and asked her, "Second Miss, what about yourself?" ”
Dou Miaojing picked a piece and threw it to her, and said, "Just polish this piece a little, I don't want to carve things." ”
The big shopkeeper should be, muttering in his heart, Jubao Zhai is doing these fine and fancy kung fu, the second lady is good. Now it's back to basics.
After he stepped back, Dou Miaojing got up and stretched, knelt on the chair and looked downstairs.
Jubao Zhai faces the street on three sides, and it is the best shop in this square of several streets. At this moment, open the window and look at it, the bottom is the main entrance of Jubao Zhai, because the weather is good today, people come and go on the street. From time to time, people also come in and hang out in the shop.
Not much. I saw a few people who looked like small servants carrying food boxes and fish into the store, and Dou Miaojing knew that the table ordered by the big shopkeeper had arrived.
Sure enough, Shaoyue and Yinping came in and brought a basin of fragrant pancreas for her to clean her hands. said: "The second master passed the word over there, saying that he was going to eat." Second Miss, why is Gu Gongzi here? ”
Dou Miaojing shook her head, how did she know how Gu Xing came out. The thought of having dinner together later. She felt a little uncomfortable.
After washing her hands, she asked the two, "But what's not in the picture?" Wrap them up before you go back. Lest you forget. ”
The two of them giggled and said what they liked. Dou Miaojing waved his small hand and took out ten taels of silver to them, and said generously: "Take it, you must let them record it in the account book." lest I turn around and ask my second uncle for accounts again. ”
"Yes, got it." Shaoyue opened her mouth, held the silver and flew away like a swallow.
Yinping was embarrassed: "The slaves haven't done anything yet." Why did the young lady reward us with earrings. "It's always a bit of a wasted feeling.
Dou Miaojing poked her head and said, "I love to reward you, you can use it." There are so many answers to why there are so many in the world. ”
As he was talking, Dou Pei sent someone to pass the word and asked Dou Miaojing to hurry over.
Yinping helped her straighten her clothes, but she was still a little worried: "Miss, the women in our inner house shouldn't eat at the same table with foreign men." After going back, the Tai'an people asked what to do? ”
Dou Miaojing hadn't thought about this, she was now focused on Dou Pei, anyway, it was a matter of time before she showed up like this, why should she stick to the present. raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you afraid of, the second uncle will take care of everything!" ”
But in the end, she underestimated Dou Pei's thoughts in this regard, how to say that she was also a person who married a girl from the Jinling royal family, even if she was born a businessman, she did not break the rules. When Dou Miaojing went to the dining room, there was already a screen in the middle, and she entered through another door, so it can be said that she didn't even see Dou Pei's hair.
On the table, there were several delicate side dishes, and there was actually a pot of wine.
The silver screen was speechless, and Shaoyue, who arrived later, immediately wanted to take the wine jug away, but was held down by Dou Miaojing and said, "What are you anxious about, can the second uncle be disproportionate?" ”
Shaoyue let go of her hand, and the corners of Dou Miaojing's mouth immediately showed a narrow smile.
She sat for a while, and only a few people came outside the screen. Through the dense weaving yarn, it can be seen that there are only three people, one is Dou Pei, one is Gu Xing, and the other is Liu Abacus, who I have seen in the account room.
After the three of them took their seats, they began to stir up the topic, and to Dou Miaojing's surprise, they were talking about some accounting problems, including how many shops in Lin'an City had a good face, the profits and losses and the greasy behind them.
Shaoyue and Yinping didn't have this mind, but Dou Miaojing understood in an instant that the second uncle pulled her here to eat, not just to let her eat, he wanted to let himself listen and learn hard. Rao doesn't understand, at least he has to have an impression.
She was so nervous that she squeezed the jade chuan on her wrist, and her heart was pounding. It seems that my sister has told my second uncle that she wants to learn how to take care of housework. She understands that her sister is really kind to her. Only when the second uncle agrees to come down, can the grandmother nod his head. And what she has been thinking about is how to ask her grandmother to agree first, and then persuade the second uncle, so that if the second uncle denies, her grandmother's efforts will be in vain. And if the second uncle is the first to agree, probably the grandmother will not be able to resist.
The second uncle did this today, he deliberately wanted to test her, right? See if she has that catty tael, you can learn from him.
Dou Miaojing suddenly straightened her back, and the aroma of the wine and food on the table couldn't get into her nose, making her listen to the words outside seriously.
didn't wait for her to hear a few words, and suddenly from behind the screen, a few women who hired Tingting came out.
Dou Miaojing was dumbfounded, and when she saw who it was, she couldn't help but stand up and said in surprise: "Drizzle and wind, are you here too?" ”
The two girls bowed with a smile, and before the drizzle could speak, the wind and the wind said in a hurry: "The slave and maid are still inexplicable when they come, what is the matter with the sixteenth master of our family, so that the two slaves and maids must arrive within half an hour." The slave hadn't ridden for a long time, and the bones were about to fall apart along the way. Only now did I understand that the second lady was here, no wonder our grandfather was in a hurry. ”
What does that mean?
Before Dou Miaojing could understand, Drizzle slapped Hefeng violently and scolded: "Mouthy! (To be continued)
