172.
I? Jiang Wanbai really wants to talk about love and gain a happiness of her own. But with such a body, how can she talk about it, and who will she talk to?
Talk to people who are about her physical age? I'm sorry, but she really doesn't love the old, so she doesn't like those people.
Or talk to someone of her age, she is willing, but she is afraid that others will only treat her as a grandmother and dislike her.
It's sad. Jiang Wanbai was silent, not knowing what to say.
"No, no, no!" Zhao seemed to have expected Jiang Wanbai's answer, and said firmly, "I have sons and daughters now, daughters-in-law and sons-in-law, and grandchildren and granddaughters, granddaughters-in-law and grandsons-in-law in the future.
Having a man is not necessarily comfortable, just like my former husband, that kind of desperate life, I don't want to live anymore.
Mother, today's words, I only said it when you didn't say it, and you don't want to tell me in the future. ”
Jiang Wanbai saw that she was so resolute, and she couldn't say anything more, so she let her leave.
Thinking back to the present, Jiang Wanbai looked at Zhao and wanted to say a few more words. But this idea was cut off by her.
If a person doesn't encounter something, no matter how much she tells her, it's useless. She is not very old now, and in modern times, she is a leftover woman who is not a leftover woman. If one day, she can meet someone who is in love with her, she will know what she means today.
Of course, it may be that she can't meet her at all, and she will live her whole life like this. However, this is no longer within the scope of Jiang Wanbai's consideration.
Jiang Wanbai is saying goodbye here, and the sea is also saying goodbye to Ah Cai.
"I don't know when I'll see you again. With me at home, you don't have to worry. "The sea is not very good at talking, and can only pick up the most practical words.
Ah Cai cried and nodded, "Take care of Daddy." If I have the chance, I will definitely come back to see you. ”
"Hmm." After being silent for a while, the sea said again, "Mother has a word for me to bring to you." At this point, he was a little embarrassed.
"What?"
"That's it, it's just ......" After making up his mind for a while, Dahai gritted his teeth and said, "Mother said that the most important thing for a woman is to have a child of her own, especially in a rich family like the Tian family."
You'd better, better have a baby sooner. ”
Ah Cai didn't expect her brother to say these words, and immediately blushed.
The sea was also a little embarrassed, waved his hand, and said a little embarrassed: "Okay, I'll go first, you take care all the way." After speaking, he didn't look at Ah Cai, and turned to leave.
Kids? Ah Cai stretched out her hand and stroked her flat lower abdomen, looked at the direction of the sea, and stood for a while before getting into the car.
The same farewell scene also appeared on Tian Chengyu and Dong Yanya on the side. It's just that the two of them are much quieter, there are no tears, no crying, only silent staring.
"I already know everything about you." For a long time, Tian Chengyu said leisurely, as if complaining and sad.
Dong Yanya lowered her head and nodded lightly, signaling that she knew.
"You're good. Are we still friends? Tian Chengyu said again.
Dong Yanya nodded quickly.
Tian Chengyu became happy and took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, "This was given to me by Old Madam Zeng, and now, I will give it to you." Hopefully, we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future. ”
As soon as Dong Yanya looked at the jade pendant, she knew that it was worth a lot, and it was given by Mrs. Zeng, where did she dare to ask for it.
But Tian Chengyu made up his mind, stuffed the jade pendant into her hand, and said in a low voice: "If we meet again in the future......
Dong Yanya looked up at him, waiting for his next words.
However, Tian Chengyu didn't know why he didn't want to say it, so he just said: "You have to take care." ”
"So are you." Dong Yanya didn't know what it was like in her heart, and in the end, she only said this.
Tian Chengyu nodded, turned around and got into the carriage.
The banquet that is inseparable in the world, the farewell is over, the Tian family officially embarks on the journey back to their hometown, and the lively Tian family suddenly becomes cold.
However, this desertion did not last long, and the east wind that Jiang Wanbai was waiting for came.
Speaking of this east wind, it really came much faster than Jiang Wanbai imagined, as if it was really a wind, and it blew from Pingyang County to Yancheng, which is thousands of miles away, in an instant.
"Master Lin?" Jiang Wanbai couldn't believe her eyes.
It has only been less than a month since her letter was sent out, and from Pingyang County to Yancheng, according to the normal speed, it will take nearly a month to come and go, not counting the various delays in the middle, how did this Master Lin come so quickly.
"You've hurt me. I haven't slept well since I received your letter, and I wish I could fly over with wings right away. "Master Lin was a little tired, but he was in good spirits.
Jiang Wanbai laughed. In fact, she didn't say anything, just a little bit of a picture of the big changes that oil could make.
And she was afraid that he would be in a hurry, so she finally said that this matter was a matter of urgency, and she had to take her time. But he still came over in such a hurry, who can blame him.
"Take me to see the oil, I want to see if it's as amazing as you say." Master Lin couldn't wait.
Jiang Wanbai also knew his temper and immediately took him to Ghost Rock Beach.
It's evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the stone-covered sand, glowing like a rainbow on a black screen.
It was the first time that Master Lin had seen this kind of scene, and it took him a minute to react before he came back to his senses, dipped a little oil in the straw that had been prepared a long time ago, took it aside, and lit it with a flint.
"Bang", the blue fire rose very high, although he had already heard Jiang Wanbai say it, but he was still taken aback.
I tried to pour the flame with seawater, and sure enough, the flame did not mean to be extinguished at all, but burned more intensely.
Like a child discovering a novelty toy, Mr. Lin lit a fire for a while, added something to it for a while, and took a pot to test the temperature for a while, and was very busy.
It wasn't until the sun went down and his stomach gurgled that he realized the time, and looked at Jiang Wanbai, who had been waiting for an unknown amount of time, with some embarrassment.
"My family has gone back, and there are a few spare rooms in the house, so if you don't dislike it, you can stay with me.
Also, I told you about the ink making, I want to ask Zeng Jingwen and Dong Qirong to talk about it tomorrow, you see......"
"If I don't bother, I'll stay at your house, and I still have some things to ask you about. As for tomorrow's business, you can just watch it happen. "Master Lin always felt that Jiang Wanbai had too many secrets, and the more he came into contact with her, the more he could find out that she was unusual, so he used the word "ask for advice" instead.
"I'm not responsible." If it were possible, Jiang Wanbai really didn't want to be this budding bird.
Bachelor Lin seemed to have already decided on this matter, and asked Jiang Wanbai some strange questions as he walked back.
For example, when water turns into steam, can it really drive the gears to turn? For example, what is this oil, what is the difference between it and ordinary oil, and so on.
Jiang Wanbai also knew a little about these questions, so she stumbled to answer, and wanted to change the topic several times, but Master Lin didn't buy it at all. In the end, she could only replace what she knew with something less shocking and tell Master Lin to it.
Even so, Master Lin was amazed, and often forgot to walk and talk when he listened, which made Jiang Wanbai distressed.
It took only ten minutes to walk for a full hour to get home. Fortunately, Dong Yanya had already prepared dinner at home, and Jiang Wanbai escaped.
However, it is only temporary. After dinner, Master Lin came to her again, and he felt like he was entangled with her, and he wanted to empty all the things in her head.
Later, Jiang Wanbai regretted writing to him a little and calling him.
After Jiang Wanbai said for the third time that it was late at night and she wanted to sleep, Master Lin reluctantly returned to his house.
Early the next morning, as soon as Jiang Wanbai walked out of the room, she saw Master Lin standing in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, and his mouth was full of thoughts, "It shouldn't be." Could it be so...... Yes, maybe so.
However, it doesn't make sense. No, no......"
He wouldn't have slept all night, Jiang Wanbai looked at Master Lin's wet robe, as well as the dark circles under his eyes, and he might have guessed correctly.
As soon as Master Lin saw Jiang Wanbai come out, he immediately said in surprise: "There is a question, I can't figure it out yesterday, it just so happens that you are here, you say ......"
Reluctantly answered two questions, Jiang Wanbai ran away to find Zeng Jingwen and Dong Qirong.
Zeng Jingwen has not been idle for a month, and has done a lot of preparations, and now that he heard that Master Lin is here, he naturally happily said that he would come to see him for a while.
As for Dong Qirong, his health has improved a lot, and when he is fine, he will also teach Dong Yanya to read, and even teach her some ink-making things. After getting Jiang Wanbai's news, he hurriedly took out the new clothes he had prepared a long time ago, and sorted them out in front of the bronze mirror for a long time to confirm that his sick appearance was not so haggard, and then rushed to the agreed place.
After delivering the letter, Jiang Wanbai was still reluctant to go home, so she came to the vast residence early and waited for everyone.
Haohanju is a two-story wooden building, when Jiang Wanbai and Tian Lao Er and others first came to Yancheng, Tang Shaozheng was also here to pick up the wind for them. Now less than three months later, Jiang Wanbai is standing here again, looking at the endless crowd downstairs, and naturally has a special taste in her heart.
The shrimp paste business has stabilized, and Cui Jingtang urged her to expand production several times, but she didn't agree, because now is not the time.
No one in the Tian family had gone through business before, and all she knew was some fur, she didn't want to take too big a step, and finally make herself fall, it was better to come step by step.
It's June now, and it's about to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Cui Jingtang has already sent someone to discuss the matter of snowy mooncakes. Although she doesn't have to worry about this business, there are some things that can't be shirked, and after a while, she may still be busy.
There is also the Wujia leather wine, it is better to continue to make a batch this year, especially now that she is at the beach, the market for this wine may be better.
The rest is the business of making ink.
Just as she was thinking, there was a loud sound at the stairs, and the people she had asked began to arrive one after another.
