Chapter 170: Noble?
Aunt Yu followed the steps of the shopkeeper and left the hall on the first floor and came to the courtyard behind. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The shopkeeper paused and looked at Aunt Yu, "Aunt Yu, I heard from the pillar that you have a letter from our young lady?" ”
Although Aunt Yu was surprised by Shu Yanhua's identity, she didn't say anything, but took out a small cloth bag directly from her arms, carefully opened the cloth, took out two letters from it, and handed them to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took it, and when he saw that one of them was "personally opened by the county lord", he sank in his heart, put away the letter, and then looked at the envelope that said "The shopkeeper personally opened".
The envelope was filled with fire wax, the fire wax was intact, no one opened it, and the shopkeeper carefully tore it open, pulled out the letter inside, and looked at it.
Until the last letter, when he saw the seal pattern, the shopkeeper's eyes were fixed.
"Aunt Yu, where is the girl who gave you this letter?" The shopkeeper said in a somewhat heavy tone.
Aunt Yu shook her head, Zhou Tingyu just said that just give these two letters to the shopkeeper, and don't do anything else, now the shopkeeper asked where they were, but Aunt Yu didn't answer him.
"The girl said that you should do what the letter says, and that it is not for her to reveal her hiding place now."
In fact, Aunt Yu thinks that the shopkeeper will know sooner or later, but she is entrusted by others and will not say much, as for how the shopkeeper knows, she doesn't care, anyway, it is not revealed from her mouth.
The shopkeeper took a deep breath, put away the letter, turned around and walked out with Aunt Yu, and the pillar outside was already waiting with two Luo brocades, one was royal blue and the other was crow blue.
The shopkeeper came out with Aunt Yu and said lightly: "Aunt Yu, since you all asked for these two pieces of cloth, the silver you gave just now is enough, pillars, put the cloth that Aunt Yu just chose for Aunt Yu to pack it, you help send the cloth back to Aunt Yu's house." ”
The shopkeeper gave the pillar a look.
The pillar responded: "Good Rat." ”
Aunt Yu didn't have time to stop her, she didn't give a single copper coin just now, how could the shopkeeper say this?
It's just that it doesn't mean that the eldest lady refuses, so I listened to the shopkeeper continue, "Aunt Yu, I'm missing, I still have to entertain distinguished guests." ”
After speaking, it does not mean that the eldest lady speaks, and goes straight to the second floor.
The neighbor looked at all this in surprise, walked up to Aunt Yu, and asked her in a low voice, "What's the matter?" The shopkeeper just called you in, and you gave the money? ”
Aunt Yu was confused by this, and she didn't know how to answer her neighbors, or the pillar said: "Just now I forgot where the crow blue Luo brocade was, so I had to ask the shopkeeper for help, and I found out the royal blue one, but there was just one left, if you take it out, it is not good to be scrambled, so I directly called the lady in to see which one she wanted, and the mother looked at both and liked it, so she paid the silver directly." ”
Aunt Yu had no choice but to go down the steps of the pillar, "Yes, after thinking about it, my eldest man can't just wear one clothes, so I bought him two horses." ”
The neighbor sighed: "You, I really love your eldest man, twenty taels of silver Luo brocade, say buy it, and buy two horses, it seems that you are going to find a good daughter-in-law for the eldest man." ”
When I saw the girl's family, I spent forty taels of silver to buy cloth to make clothes, and if it was time for the next dowry, wouldn't it be more?
The neighbor rolled his eyes, and his mind had already begun to think about which niece of his mother's family was worthy of Yu Dalang.
The shopkeeper on the second floor, pulled out the letter in the corner, and looked at it again, his brows were deeply locked, forming a wrinkle between his eyebrows, and his face changed several times, and it could be seen that he was struggling inside.
The shopkeeper stared at the seal for dozens of times, even studying the corners and lines, and then put away the letter.
"Knock Knock"
"Come in."
The shopkeeper opened the door of the box and asked respectfully, "Madam, have you and Miss chosen which style?" ”
A middle-aged beautiful lady smiled and said, "It's all chosen, how long will it take for you to prepare these?" ”
The shopkeeper glanced at it and said, "Madam, please wait a moment, I will arrange someone to prepare it for you, and someone will send you back to your house later." ”
"That's okay, it's not too early, I'll go back first, and when you ask the guy to send something over, find the account room to settle the bill." Mrs. Mei stood up and wanted to take her daughter back.
"Madame, please later, I have something to tell you." The shopkeeper hurriedly spoke.
Madame was a little surprised, "Is the goods I want in stock or not?" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head, "No, ma'am, please see." ”
The shopkeeper took out an envelope from his bosom and handed it to his wife.
The lady took a look, her eyes flashed, "What does the shopkeeper mean by this?" ”
The shopkeeper explained: "Madam, this is not written by me, but by a nobleman, and the nobleman said that he must hand it over to the county guard, if the county keeper does not receive this letter, or if he receives this letter, there should be no such thing......"
The shopkeeper paused and continued: "The disaster of destroying the door is imminent. ”
Madame's face changed, and she scolded: "Presumptuous! ”
Another arrogant female voice sounded, "Shopkeeper, you don't want to stay in Yichang County anymore, and you actually curse our family!" ”
The shopkeeper was not frightened by this, but said very seriously: "Madam, I didn't say this, it was said by the nobleman, and the nobleman said, I hope the county guard will not make mistakes." ”
A sneer pulled out of the corner of the lady's mouth, and she stared at the shopkeeper coldly, but when she found that the shopkeeper was still looking at her fearlessly, the anger in her heart dropped slightly, and she began to think seriously about the shopkeeper's words.
"Noble? What kind of noble person is it? Shopkeeper, you must know that with what you just said, I can ask my husband to put you in prison. Cursing the court officials is no joke. The lady said mockingly.
The shopkeeper bowed respectfully, "Madam, please forgive me, I didn't mean to curse the county guard, but just repeated the words of the nobleman."
Originally, the nobleman asked me to find a way to give this letter to the county keeper in person, but a certain person with a low status wanted to ask for too much time to see the county keeper, so in order to avoid mistaking the nobleman's affairs, he handed this letter to you, Mrs.
What I just said just now just wanted Mrs. to know that this matter is not trivial. To be able to meet Mrs. here is also a beautiful thing.
As for who the noble man is, as long as the county keeper reads this letter, he will know. ”
Mrs. stared at the shopkeeper with sharp eyes, trying to see something from his face, but unfortunately she couldn't see anything, the shopkeeper has been doing business for many years, and has dealt with all kinds of people, and it is still easy to do it without changing his face.
Madame couldn't see anything, so she had to give up, looked down at the letter, put it in her arms, put it away, flicked her sleeves, and was about to take people away, when the voice of the shopkeeper came in her ears.
"Madam, this matter is very important, please hand it over to the county guard when you go in a while, and let him complete the task assigned by the noble man as soon as possible. The noble man also explained that it is not appropriate for others to know about this matter, so as not to leak the rumors. ”
Madame sneered a few times, "Pretend to be a ghost!" Let's go! ”
