59. Persuasion

Tong Xue's words poked Xu Wenyuan's heart, after all, the situation at home is there, even if the eldest brother is about to recover from his illness and the sister-in-law can cook some food, it can only slightly improve the life at home.

In a short period of time, I can't save any money, and it is indeed the right time to say that these two taels of silver have come.

But why did he sound so awkward.

Xu Wenyuan looked at Tong Xue with some embarrassment, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this?" The family needs silver, I will earn it, even if I grind more tofu, I can always live with my family after working hard, but how can a dignified seven-foot man receive this kind of favor from others in vain. ”

"Maybe you think I'm not right, and I have the idea of doing it in my vest, but for me, this money allows me to do a lot of things, and we have to earn it for a long time." Tong Xue ignored Xu Wenyuan's somewhat angry gaze, "I'm just suing you, if I were you, I would accept these two taels of silver." ”

Xu Wenyuan was about to refute when he opened his mouth, Tong Xue immediately said, "Don't tell me not to eat the food that comes to you, we have paid our labor and made pastries that make this young lady happy, she thinks that our efforts are worth so much money, fair trade, and both money and goods, I don't think there is anything wrong with this." ”

Xu Wenyuan snorted coldly, "Sister-in-law, how can things be judged because of the benefits, women just have long hair and short knowledge." ”

"I have long hair and short knowledge, so it's obvious that you like to make trouble." Tong Xue was also a little angry, "It's just a matter as big as a sesame mung bean, which makes the whole family worry about you, I think you are just idle hypocrisy." ”

Xu Wenyuan was actually better just now, but when Tong Xue said this, he suddenly stiffened his neck and said, "What you said is all crooked." ”

Tong Xue was so angry that she poked Xu Wenyuan's head, "You think so, it's just that you look down on yourself." If you feel that your status is equal and equivalent, you will not be angry about it. I'm still angry with you, your eldest brother has taught you the truth for so many years, and it can be regarded as a vain teaching, you can only read the skin and skin, but you don't know the blood and bones. ”

Tong Xue would say this, mainly because Xu Wenda didn't have an overreaction when he heard this just now, but seemed to be similar to her thoughts.

Xu Wenyuan stood up angrily, "I don't know like a woman, I'll go find my eldest brother." ”

"Little bunny." Tong Xue grinned, sure enough, adolescent little children are just difficult to handle, and they can't communicate.

Xu Wenyuan walked out and saw Xu Wenda standing at the door, knowing that the eldest brother was worried about him, his heart warmed, "Big brother, I want to talk to you." ”

Xu Wenda took Xu Wenyuan to his room, "Say what you want to say, let's say it, speaking of which, our brothers haven't had a good talk for a long time, if you have any ideas, let's hear it." ”

Xu Wenyuan said a little awkwardly, "Big brother, sister-in-law just said, I feel that my heart is not open, because I think I have looked down on myself, so I feel that the reward is insulting to me, and my eldest brother also thinks so?" ”

Seeing that Xu Wenda didn't say anything, Xu Wenyuan continued, "But I was really angry at the time, so I thought that one day when I earned so much money, let them take a good look, don't bully me when I am young and poor, I also have a day of soaring, just thinking about throwing this money on her." ”

Xu Wenda glanced up at Xu Wenyuan, "Did that young lady throw the silver on you?" ”

Xu Wenyuan shook his head, "That's not true, the lady sat in the carriage, and I didn't see it, but the tone of the maid's speech was very bad, which made me feel uncomfortable when I heard it." ”

Xu Wenda stretched out his finger and flicked it Xu Wenyuan's head, making Xu Wenyuan have a long snack, "Because of a maid's words that have been awkward for a long time, you are really out of luck." ”

Xu Wenyuan muttered dissatisfiedly, "That's not because the maid's tone of voice is too annoying, you also saw it yesterday, when she faced her sister-in-law, she was also condescending, as if we were all asking for her, obviously she had to be dead and I came back to buy our snacks." ”

Xu Wenda asked directly, "Then can you also see how your sister-in-law copes?" Although she is smiling and welcoming, she is also neither humble nor arrogant, because for her, she feels that she and the young lady behind the maid are equal in status and are both sides of the transaction. ”

Xu Wenyuan now thinks about Tong Xue's attitude yesterday, although he kept smiling and saying that he would try his best to meet the requirements, but the maid said that it was done on the same day, and Tong Xue rejected it, and in the end the maid compromised.

Xu Wenda looked at Xu Wenyuan and said, "Do you think there is anything wrong with your sister-in-law saying your words?" ”

Tong Xue eavesdropped outside for a while, and felt that the conversation was almost over, so she took Xu Wan to the kitchen, and kept saying to Xu Wan, "Wan'er, you can't be like your second brother, so shallow-eyed, that person didn't reward two taels of gold, but two taels of silver, so he was anxious like this, in the future, if we do business in the north and south of the river, then we have to die awkwardly?" ”

Tong Xue looked at Xu Wan and didn't speak, and continued to chatter, "Our family's dim sum can be regarded as a unique tree, a combination of Chinese and Western, if it is a young lady, the family also opens a dim sum shop, and people study the practice, then we will lose money by selling two taels of gold." ”

Xu Wan also nodded at this time, what her sister-in-law said was so reasonable, thinking about it this way, she seemed to think that it was worth the money after selling it for two taels of silver.

It's just that Xu Wan frowned and asked, "Sister-in-law, what does the combination of Chinese and Western mean?" ”

Tong Xue was stunned for a moment, and didn't know how to explain, "Eh, it's our unique way of making zuò pastries, hehehe, this is not important." ”

Xu Wan nodded a little confusedly, although she didn't quite understand, but whatever he was, the sister-in-law didn't matter, it must not be something important.

Xu Wan is now very interested in the pot of things that Tong Xue cooked yesterday, because she was making zuò pastries yesterday, she didn't see much of what Tong Xue put to boil the brine.

Xu Wan didn't take it to heart yesterday, but she didn't expect that those pigs would become extraordinarily delicious after being boiled in water.

At the same time, on the carriage that had already left the town, someone also opened Tong Xue's pickled vegetables.

Tong Xue also took into account the fact that the young lady of a large family may not eat pigs in the water, so Tong Xue did not cut those with a large intestine, but only cut a piece of pork face meat and a piece of pig ears, after all, the meat in these two places still looks very neat.
