Chapter 17 The Old Man Should Not Know Each Other
The woman in the car got down, revealing a delicate face, her long black hair coiled up at the back of her head, fixed with a golden step, and her face was powdered and thin, making her look more and more beautiful. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Qing'er." The woman was also stunned when she saw Chen, and then smiled again, "You're here to buy cloth?" ”
"It's almost winter, buy some materials for the children to make clothes." Chen's eyes were half-down, with a rare detachment.
"Qing'er, are you still blaming me?" The woman's expression was a little sad, "We used to be so good, and now we can't go back?" ”
"Mrs. Wei, you are laughing, I am just an ignorant woman, how dare I climb high." Chen's expression was still faint.
Gu Siniang looked at the woman and then at Chen, and from her perspective, she could just see Chen's obviously darkened face. I can't help but be a little curious, looking at this, my mother and this woman seem to be very familiar, at least they used to be very familiar.
"Qing'er, you still won't forgive me." The woman sighed, her voice was a little emotional, "You and I have been separated for six years, and in a blink of an eye, Yuan Niang is so old." I don't know if Yuan Niang still knows Aunt Tong. ”
Gu Yuanniang glanced at Chen, bit her lip, and spoke softly, "Aunt Tong." ”
"This is Erniang and Sanniang. You probably don't remember me, I was so small then, and now I'm so big. Tong smiled, looked at the two girls beside Gu Yuanniang, and said softly.
Erniang, Sanniang, first glanced at Gu Yuanniang, and saw her nodding, so she cautiously opened her mouth and shouted, "Aunt Tong!" “
Tong was obviously very happy, and agreed to three ehs in a row.
"Aunt Tong, this is the little sister, Siniang." Gu Yuanniang introduced again, and then explained to Gu Siniang, "This is Aunt Tong." “
As soon as Gu Siniang wanted to open her mouth to call someone, she heard Chen's calm voice say, "Okay, it's not too early, we should go home." With that, he frowned and pulled a few people away quickly.
Tong stood in place, looking at their backs, and after a long time, he knew that those figures disappeared from sight, and then turned around and entered the Splendid Fang.
"Madam, this is the account book for the first half of the year, you can see it." Shopkeeper Wu took out the ledger and put it on the table beside Tong.
Tong nodded expressionlessly, reached out to pick up the account book, flipped through it casually, and said after a long while, "Do they often come to the shop to buy materials?" ”
Shopkeeper Wu was stunned by this inexplicable question, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Tong said that the Gu family who came to the shop to buy materials just now, was surprised that the eldest lady would ask about this, but still said truthfully, "I don't come often, this time I heard that Mrs. Gu is going to celebrate her birthday, and it is almost winter, so I bought some materials." ”
"Yes." Tong Shi responded lightly, and looked down at the account book again.
The only thing left for the quiet room was the sound of paper turning, and the quiet environment inevitably made people feel a little panicked. Shopkeeper Wu was a little uneasy, and he even had some doubts that he couldn't do it because there was a problem with the account, why did the eldest lady look at it for longer than before.
After a while, Tong closed the account book, and there was a smile on his face, "The accounts are doing well, and the shopkeeper Wu has worked hard." ”
Shopkeeper Wu breathed a long sigh of relief and shook his head again and again, "This is my business, and I don't deserve a word of hard work from the owner." ”
"In a few days, the old lady's birthday, I prepared a few horses of material for the old lady to cut clothes, last month's material I remember a few horses of Hangzhou silk, each of the various colors to give me a horse." Tong commanded.
"Yes, I'll have someone wrap it up for you." Shopkeeper Wu hurriedly answered.
Tong Shi explained again, and then took the people to prepare to leave, Wu shopkeeper sent her to the car, and when the car curtain was about to fall, Tong's voice sounded again, "They will come over again in the future, and the price will be given to her according to our purchase price." ”
When the words fell, the curtain was lowered, blocking Tong's face, and outside the car, Shopkeeper Wu was stunned for a long time, until the guy called him to come back to his senses.
"Shopkeeper, let's go to Yuyang City tomorrow and don't pass by Lotus Village." The guy said as he straightened the fabric.
If Shopkeeper Wu heard this before, he would definitely wave his hand directly and ask the guys to wait a few days before sending it over. But this Tong's attitude surprised him very much, so he was a little more careful in handling this matter.
"Since you don't have a way, then you will run alone tomorrow and send the materials to Gu Niangzi."
The young man was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Got it." ”
Chen's face was not good-looking all the way, and after the round with Gu Dazhuang, Gu Dazhuang obviously saw her abnormality, and just wanted to ask, Gu Yuanniang quietly pulled his sleeve and whispered to him, "I met Aunt Tong in Jinxiufang just now." ”
Gu Dazhuang nodded, stretched out his hand and took Chen's hand, "Don't take it too seriously, it's been so many years." ”
Chen's eyes were a little red, and he nodded after a long time, "I thought I didn't care anymore, but now when I see her, I still feel sad." Hey, that's it, I'm just asking for trouble. ”
Having said that, Gu Siniang still saw that Chen's brows did not show any signs of stretching, but they were wrinkled more and more tightly.
When a few people returned home, not long after noon, Ma warmed the food in the pot, and when he saw that they were back, he served it to the table.
"Mother, I won't eat, I'm a little uncomfortable, go back to the house and lie down." Chen's expression was depressed, and he didn't wait for Ma to open his mouth after speaking, and went directly into the house.
"What's wrong?" Ma Shi is not angry, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for more than ten years, she knows this daughter-in-law, usually timid and afraid, seeing her is like a mouse seeing a cat, today like this, obviously encountered something.
"It's okay, I met Ah Tong in the town today, I'll take a look, don't worry." After Gu Dazhuang finished speaking, he also followed into the house.
Ma glanced into the room, didn't say anything, turned his head to Gu Siniang and said, "It's nothing to do with you, let's eat." ”
Several people sat down around the table, their parents were in a bad mood, and they didn't talk and laugh as usual, they all quietly bowed their heads and ate silently.
"Why are you saying that my mother is unhappy?" Gu Sanniang was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
"Do you need to say it? It must have something to do with the Aunt Tong I met today, didn't you see how ugly my mother's face was at that time. Gu Erniang took a bite to eat, and then said.
"Eldest sister, since you know that Aunt Tong, do you know what is going on between your mother and her?" Gu Siniang looked at Gu Yuanniang, who lowered her head and didn't know what to think, and asked.
Gu Yuanniang was stunned for a moment, and then shook her head, "I don't know the specifics, when I was very young, Aunt Tong often came to our house, but she never came again." I haven't seen her in years. ”
