Chapter 80 Cousin Yu
The old lady suddenly wanted to go to the west, and the eldest lady couldn't stop it, so he had to prepare it himself. The Feng family commanded the girl and mother-in-law to pack their luggage, and Mama Lu helped on the side.
Youyi was named and followed, and she was a little excited in her heart. To be honest, it's a pity that she hasn't even been able to wander freely between heaven and earth as a ghost. Now she can go to the northwest border, thousands of miles away, and see different scenery and folk customs, she feels great!
She hurriedly sent Chunhua to Jinxiufang and asked Wei Ru if he had been to the northwest frontier and if there was anything she could mention. Chunhua came back soon and brought back good news. There was something in Wei Ru's shop, and he was going to the northwest temporarily, and the destination was in Huangxian County, a hundred miles away from Huizhou. And she will also leave early tomorrow morning, just in time to go together.
Youyi was very happy to hear this, and hurriedly reported to the old lady. The old lady knew and said: "It's better to have more people as companions than nothing, and Boss Wang has traveled from south to north and has a wide range of knowledge, so she can't take care of it more this time." β
Yuyi and the others knew that the old lady was going to take Youyi to Huizhou, so they all came to see each other off. Yuyi, as the eldest sister, solemnly pulled Youyi to one place and told her carefully.
From eating, living, and traveling along the way, to increasing or decreasing clothes, how to deal with strangers when encountered, and how to behave when you arrive at your aunt's house, etc.
"The old lady's body is not good, this journey must be hard, and the sisters are only by your side, so they can only wait hard. But the fourth sister is only nine years old, and I really can't rest assured. "I have to say that Yuyi's mind is very detailed, and she does have the demeanor of the eldest sister.
Youyi took her words to heart, nodded and replied, "Big sister is really thoughtful, I will keep it in mind." Although it is said that I am waiting for the old lady, in the final analysis, it is Mama Lu who contributes the most. Mama Lu has been by the old lady's side for many years, and she knows the old lady's habits, so I am just relieving my boredom. This time, my father sent Li Bo, who ran out of the shop all the year round, to follow, and Sister Wei Ru took the senior comprador of Jinxiufang, and it is estimated that nothing will happen. β
"I don't know how to say it if you don't mention it." Yuyi listened and then instructed, "I know that Boss Wang of Fairview is your new friend, but it is necessary to guard against others. Businessmen are profit-seeking, and the people she knows are more mixed, and the people around her are even more inferior. Don't forget that you are everyone's best girl, pay more attention to everything, and keep a little distance. Although you are still a little girl and do not have so many taboos and concerns, it is better to pay attention. β
"Big sister's words sound reasonable, but it still varies from person to person. Our family also started in business, and now the second and third uncles are still in business, and even my father has a lot of time to deal with businessmen. If we generalize, wouldn't no one want to associate with us? Big sister is concerned about chaos, I understand your heart. Youyi took her hand and replied affectionately.
Seeing this, Yuyi had no choice but to nod her forehead helplessly, "The old lady always says that the third sister has the most clever mouth, and I speak the most ironing." If I say it, the fourth sister's mouth is so clever that it makes people feel distressed, and they are reluctant to scold. You know that my sister is wholeheartedly for your good, so be careful in everything. β
The eldest lord knew that Wei Ru was going together, and he was a little comforted, but he couldn't rest assured. Just when he was worried and embarrassed, he received a letter from his hometown in the south, which made him feel a lot more relaxed.
It turned out to be a son and nephew of the old lady's mother's brother, and he was also going to Huizhou. He knew that the old lady was bound to go, so he sent a letter saying that they would meet in Xinzhou. Xinzhou is only two days away from the capital, and it just so happens that there is a branch of Jinxiufang in Xinzhou, so they can take a break before going to Huizhou together.
The eldest master was very happy to receive this news, and finally had a master who could be entrusted to take care of his mother along the way. He made a while, from his hometown in the south to Xinzhou and then to Huizhou, it was actually a circle, and it took five or six days to ride a fast horse day and night. In order not to be in a hurry after a long journey, the eldest master still decided to let the old lady and others set off tomorrow, and they could also be a companion with Wei Ru.
Early the next morning, the old lady set off with Youyi. They met Wei Ru's carriage at the West City Gate and went west one after the other. Because there was plenty of time, and the old lady's waist was not suitable for too much bumping, the carriage was not fast.
"I'm anxious but I can't speed up, I don't know if it will delay Boss Wang's business." The old lady said apologetically.
The carriage of the Jin Mansion was big enough, so Wei Ru sat up, and her carriage was left to Chunhua and Mama Lu and others. Qian Comprador and Li Bo of the Jin Mansion rode a big horse to open the road in front of the road, and the other pressed the formation in the back, accompanied by the house slaves of the Jin Mansion, all of whom walked beside the big man and had some kung fu on their bodies.
Youyi is still young, so naturally there are not too many taboos, even if Wei Ru is not twisted at all in front of these men because he has been doing business outside all the year round, and it is inevitable that he will be too pedantic and stingy to pay attention to the difference between men and women.
"If the old lady doesn't dislike it, just call me Wei Ru. I went this time mainly to see the situation of a few branches, and to meet a friend in Huizhou. If I'm a few days late, I'll just have him wait, and that's fine. The old lady is Youyi's grandmother and my grandmother. It is said that there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure. I don't have any relatives here, let alone the elders who know the pain and heat, and although I am not afraid every time I go out, I am not comfortable in my heart. Now that it's okay, with the old lady on the side to teach and guide, this trip to Huizhou will definitely be smooth. "Wei Ru has the most contact with people, and there are many characters like Mrs. Yu, of course she knows how to socialize. These words not only made the old lady feel comfortable, but also liked her a little more. Especially when I heard the words that she didn't have any relatives, I couldn't help but feel pity.
"Wei Ru, what about your family? How could you be left alone? Strange and pitiful. No matter what the old lady said, she was an elder, and from Youyi's side, this "Wei Ru" was just right, "If you don't want to say it, just don't ask me, don't be embarrassed." "There are all kinds of rumors about Boss Wang's life experience, and the old lady knows it.
"What's so embarrassing, I won't be sad to mention it after a long time. Originally, I lived with my parents, grandfather, and grandmother in Jixian County, 500 miles away from the capital. Although the family is not rich and expensive, they also have a house and land, and they live a prosperous life. One night, a fire broke out in the kitchen and the house burned down to death, killing my parents, grandfather, and grandmother. I was rescued by my mother-in-law, and I was in a coma for three days and three nights before I could get my life back. Without a house or relatives, I sold my land with the help of my old slaves and came to the capital with the money. Anyway, I'm alone, and I'm home everywhere. I had heard that the capital was bustling before, and I had the idea of taking a look, but I didn't expect to stay until now. Having said that, Wei Ru's expression was still sad.
Seeing this, the old lady sighed and hugged her in her arms, "Good boy, it's hard for you!" If such a big change happens, even a man is afraid of a collapse, let alone a little girl? In the future, you just treat me as a grandmother and often come to the house to play. After saying that, he took off the bracelet on his wrist and had to put it on her wrist.
The best old pit jade jade bracelet, Youyi has never seen the old lady take it off, even if there is silver now, it is not easy to buy such a sale. It's really generous, but if you can use a jade jade bracelet to get in touch with the famous Boss Wang of Jinxiufang, it is estimated that many people will rush to it. Although the old lady has only been in the capital for half a year, she knows that the capital is mixed, and it is not easy to gain a firm foothold in the capital, especially an orphan girl. In her opinion, Wei Ru must have a strong background as a backer. The Jin Mansion is not a famous family in the capital, and if it is to do things in the future, it will not be possible without connections. The Jin family is an imperial businessman, and Wei Ru is also in business, so he can just catch up with the line. At the moment, the old lady didn't have many valuable objects with her, otherwise she would have given away more than a jade bracelet.
Youyi naturally knew what the old lady was thinking, and she also knew that Wei Ru was brighter than anyone else. If Wei Ru was unwilling, she would not complain.
"The old lady is really eccentric, I am your own granddaughter. You've only met Sister Wei Ru a few times, and we've only been together for a few months. She hurriedly said, looking at Wei Ru with a smile.
The implication is obvious, implying that Wei Ru doesn't have to take too much care of his own feelings, and if he doesn't want to accept the old lady's kindness, he can refuse.
"People get along with each other about fate, and it's rare for me to have a relationship with an old lady." Wei Ru understood it, but he still said with a smile, "It's just that this jade bracelet looks good, and I don't have anything good to honor the old lady." β
When the old lady saw her say this, she happily accepted the bracelet, and smiled more and more kindly, "What a sensible and good boy." It's God's fate that I'm close to you, who covets something? As long as you come and go, it's enough to talk to me. Youyi laughed too, and the atmosphere in the carriage was very harmonious.
Laughter and laughter along the way, and before you knew it, you arrived in Xinzhou. Before the old lady's nephews and grandchildren arrived, they went to live in the branch of the fairfair. Wei Ru got busy, and accompanied Youyi's ancestors and grandchildren to walk around Xinzhou. Although Xinzhou is not as good as the capital, it is also a lively and prosperous place, and you can buy anything you want. And there are many special snacks in Xinzhou, which are cheap and delicious. The old lady is old and not interested in these snacks. Wei Ru was free, took Youyi through the streets and alleys, and tasted the food of Xinzhou.
On this day, Youyi begged Wei Ru to take her to eat pig blood cake. The two of them not only ate it, but also brought back a big bag. Wei Ru turned his head to talk to Youyi with the bag, and bumped into a person carelessly, only to stand firm and find that the pig blood cake fell out and stained other people's clothes.
"I'm sorry, I soiled your clothes, I'll pay you one." The most important thing in the Splendid Workshop is clothes, and Wei Ru promises that it will not be cheaper than the one on him.
"Forget it, I didn't mean to." The other party was a man in his twenties, with a sunny face and a loud voice. Seeing that he was not dressed like an ordinary child, and it seemed that he had traveled a long way.
Seeing that he had a good attitude, Wei Ru became more and more reluctant to go, and insisted that he go into the store to choose one, and the price was not a problem. The guys in the shop saw them standing in the doorway and hurried out to talk. Hearing the guy shouting Boss Wei Ru, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "It turns out that the girl is Boss Wang of Jinxiufang, and Yu is clumsy." Mrs. Yu is my aunt, and I came to find her. β
"Huh." Hearing this, Wei Ru smiled, "This is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't know the family anymore." Sister Youyi, why don't you know your cousin? As he spoke, he pushed Youyi forward.
Youyi looked at the man in front of her carefully, and felt that his eyebrows and eyes looked a little like an old lady, and then called out sweetly, "Cousin." β
He was a little stunned, looking at Wei Ru's smile like a flower, his cheeks were slightly red, but the young man on the side was clever, and said: "Presumably this is Yu Gongzi, our boss has already ordered it, if Yu Gongzi comes, he will return immediately." This looking forward to the stars and the moon finally gave Yu Gongzi a look. β
Wei Ru smiled and invited him in, and took him directly to the backyard. The old lady was very happy to see people, and hurriedly called to sit down, "There are magpies jumping on the branches early this morning, and I am probably coming, no, you have really arrived." It seems that you have seen the four girls and Wei Ru girls, they are sisters commensurate, they are all your sisters. After speaking, he specially introduced Wei Ru again.
This Yu Gongzi is the eldest grandson of Mrs. Yu's brother, named Yu Changcun, who is twenty-two years old this year. Last year, he passed the big exam and was a martial artist, and now he is waiting at home to find an errand. It was only because he had nothing to do at home that he went to Huizhou to visit his seriously ill aunt and grandmother on behalf of his father and others.
When the old lady saw that his clothes were dirty, she asked the reason, and said with a smile: "Isn't this fate?" It seems that if there were no me and the four girls, you should have to know each other. β
Wei Ru laughed when he heard this, but Youyi was distracted. She knew that this eldest cousin was hard-hitting, and she heard that she had killed her fiancΓ©e before. When they really got married and married their daughter-in-law, the new daughter-in-law was not in good health, and she gave up within three years, leaving no heirs. Outside it is said that the eldest cousin is a wife, and the girls of good families are unwilling to marry him. was originally a talent, but he didn't let his elders worry about it since he was a child, and he never wanted to grind his teeth like this in marriage.
Now that the old lady intends to shorten the distance between him and Wei Ru, she may have some ideas. It's just that Wei Ru has no plans to get married, and the eldest cousin is a rough person, so he can't understand and adapt to her delicate and romantic life style. The two of them are not destined to go all the way, and it is estimated that it is difficult to even talk together. If Wei Ru is an ordinary woman with no soul and no thoughts, it would be fine, and she would have a big idea, and there would be no drama in this matter.
Youyi understands Wei Ru's temperament, and she thinks that the old lady is working in vain. Although Yu Changcun is her cousin, she is closer in terms of blood, but to be honest, she feels that Yu Changcun is not worthy of Wei Ru. In this world, only by finding someone with a strong aura and who can control Wei Ru can Wei Ru willingly become a little woman.
Wei Ru instructed the man to bring a few sets of clothes and asked Yu Changcun to pick out a set to change into. She went to arrange a banquet for Chang Cun to wash the dust, leaving the three grandparents to gossip. The old lady left the south for more than half a year, and she was very worried about the people and things there. She asks about everything. Hearing him say how good the people were, I couldn't help but feel relieved.
