Chapter 33 Hengtong Rice Shop
Su Fu heard Zhou Wu's voice, his heart was a little calm, and he thought about it again, it was already half past the night at this time, and it was already time for curfew, how could Zhou Wu come back at this time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The people in the neighboring courtyard suddenly heard her silent, as if they had nothing to say, "It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" ”
She came back to her senses and said, "I couldn't sleep well, so I got up and went for a walk." ”
Zhou Wu heard her say this, and laughed faintly, "Aren't your eyes unable to see anything at night?" "It's just that in the middle of the night, this laughter doesn't feel out of place.
She paused slightly, not knowing what to say.
After a long time, I only heard Zhou Wu say again, "From tomorrow, I can't take Ah Zhao anymore, I'm leaving." ”
She was stunned, and she didn't know what to say.
She had been suspicious of Zhou Wu's identity from the beginning, this identity had really been verified that it was not ordinary, and she didn't seem so excited, and after a while, she replied slowly.
Nothing was said all night.
Zhou Wu left early in the morning of the second day, and Su Fu was not at ease to leave Su Zhao alone at home, so he asked Wei's sister-in-law to find a stable servant woman to watch Su Zhao.
The servant woman's surname is Fang, she fled to Changle Mansion when there was a flood a few years ago, and she is honest and has a good relationship with Wei's sister-in-law.
The days are getting back on track.
Two days later, the people in the market also talked about the Ye family, saying that His Majesty had a holy decree to expel them from Changle Mansion, but who knew that overnight, the Ye family and his wife both committed suicide.
As for Na Ye Yang, he is probably a eunuch in the palace at this moment.
When Su Fu heard the news, he was shocked, and finally understood the appearance of the seventh princess's dilated pupils when she mentioned Ye Yang.
Ye Yang's life is over.
The autumn tea has fallen, and the harvest is good, and Yao's tea shop is starting to be busy.
Earlier, he was preparing to go to Khitan, and this time it was finally loaded with ten carriages, and the momentum was so great, and the guards and men were added together, nearly a hundred.
It seems that the Yao family is here for real this time, not like using them as bait last time.
It's just that there was no Su Fu among the guys accompanying him this time.
First, she was worried that Su Zhao was alone at home, and second, Yao Shaohua was not at ease with her, for fear that she would make a mistake.
She couldn't guess what Yao Shaohua meant, since she was afraid that she would make a mistake, why did she continue to stay in the tea shop, but she didn't drive her away.
The convoy departed in mid-August and came back at least until near the end of the Chinese New Year.
The warehouse of the tea shop was emptied, and the rest of the guys were gone, and after doing some finishing touches, Steward Yao waved his hand and asked them to go back one by one, and come back when the spring of next year belongs.
After the death of the seventh princess, her property was confiscated, and the previous dowries were collected into the treasury.
The contract of the rice shop was in Su Fu's hands, so the rice shop was spared.
After waiting for a day, Su Fu took Su Zhao and hired an ox cart to go to the rice shop in the west of the city.
Although Steward Xu is an honest person, but Mrs. Xu is a person who sees that the master's family is in danger and is eager to escape, with such an insider by his side, Su Fu is not very relieved.
Therefore, although she took over the Chengxi rice shop, she did not retain Xu as a manager.
As the wedding of the seven princesses in the past, this rice shop is really in a good location, just south of the street, extending in all directions, and it is very convenient to come and go.
She got out of the ox cart with Su Zhao and asked the ox cart to wait here.
The door of the rice shop is tightly closed, and the signboard has four big characters of "Hengtong Rice Shop", on the left side of the rice shop, it is a grocery seller, and on the right side of the rice shop, it is a spice seller.
The grocery seller was a woman, Ben was sitting at the door, and when she saw two teenagers standing next door to her shop, she stepped forward, "This shop has been closed for several days, Xiao Langjun should change to another place!" ”
The woman was kindly reminded, Su Fu nodded slightly, then walked to the door, took out a key from her body, and opened the copper lock.
When the woman saw that he had the key, she realized that she had been wrong, and went into the grocery store.
She walked in with Su Zhao and closed the door again.
She had taken a cursory look at this rice shop, and when she entered the door, there was a counter, and behind the counter, there was a partition, and behind the partition was empty, and the white rice in this sack was piled up, about twenty or thirty bags, and about ten stones.
That's all the stuff of this rice shop.
Nowadays, the price of rice is only ten yuan, which is very cheap.
"Sister, a lot of rice." Su Zhao, who was following her, said suddenly.
Su Fu touched Su Zhao's head, which was counted as a response.
If they sell this rice, it will not last for ten days, and if they eat it themselves, they are afraid that they will eat these rice and grow worms.
She turned around again and returned to the counter, most of the account books from previous years were sent to Ye Mansion, and at this time she was only handed over to her by the shopkeeper Xu that day.
She didn't know anything about it, but she just glanced at it a few times and knew that the price of rice was low now, the profits were weak, and there was no profit at all.
At this time, she felt that it was not easy for Shopkeeper Xu to stay here all the time.
The situation was thoroughly studied, so she didn't waste time here, walked out of the rice shop, closed the door again, and got into the ox cart and returned to Yangqiao Lane.
On the way out, I kept thinking about whether to dispose of this white rice and sell it for something else, or to continue to sell it.
When they arrived at Yangqiao Lane, she and Su Zhao got off the ox cart and walked home, but they saw that the courtyard gate of the neighbor on the left was wide open, and Sister-in-law Wei was busy going in and out, and the water splashed in the courtyard was faintly red.
She stood outside the courtyard for a while, and then saw Sister-in-law Wei come out of the house, wiping her tears with her hands.
Sister-in-law Wei looked up by chance, but saw Su Fu leading Su Zhao to stand outside the courtyard, and the appearance of tears just now made the two of them see it, and they were a little embarrassed at this moment.
It's not good to avoid it directly, so I had to turn around and dry my eyes, and pulled a smile, "When did Brother Su come back?" ”
She saw it all, and she couldn't turn around and leave, and when she saw Sister-in-law Wei coming to talk, she said, "I just came back, but what happened at home?" ”
Speaking of this, the smile that Sister-in-law Wei had just pulled out quietly left again, and subconsciously sighed, "Your brother Wei was beaten." ”
"Beaten? What's going on? ”
"Your brother Wei, this person, sells meat according to his preferences, and if he looks at those who are pleasing to the eye, he will give more to others, and if he doesn't like it, he will not pay much attention to it, but most of the people who are pleasing to the eye are ordinary people, and those who are not pleasing to the eye are those mothers-in-law who buy from high-ranking families."
"Today, that mother-in-law is estimated to have been angry with her master, and she has suffered the white eyes of your brother Wei in this vegetable market, isn't this? Immediately, I found a few thugs and beat your brother Wei on the street, and his head was bleeding. ”
Saying that, Sister-in-law Wei was even more angry, "That's it, the Kyoto patrol guards went to clean up the mess, let the beater go, and locked him in prison for a day." He is a person who always doesn't let me worry. ”
"Have you seen Lang Zhong?"
Sister-in-law Wei nodded, "No, this blood is still cleaned by Lang Zhong." ”
Su Fu put his eyes on the bloody water again, and when he saw its color, he knew that the injury was not light.
