Chapter 184: Ulterior Motives (Supplement No. 27)
Fox Xiaomei looked around, and there was not even a big stone, how to do it? Then he saw that Thirteen had found a big stone from somewhere and brought it over, and blew the ash on it, and wiped the stone clean with his own sleeve.
"Sit down for a while." Thirteen ways.
"You're not sitting?" Fox Xiaomei said.
Thirteen shook his head: "I'm not tired, you sit." ”
Hu Xiaomei sat down, in fact, she wanted to ask Lao Ma just now, if Sister-in-law Qin didn't come out at this time, could she and Thirteen go out for a spin?
It's a pity that before she could think of the words in her mind, she saw Sister-in-law Qin come out, and Hu Xiaomei got up to greet her: "Sister-in-law Qin, are we going back?" ”
"It's going to take a while." Sister-in-law Qin said with a smile and beckoned to Thirteen, who was still standing under the tree: "We still have to divide this duck feather, and you two will follow me in." Then he said to the old horse under the tree, "The old horse will come back to pick us up in an hour." ”
"Okay!" The old horse got up and tied the cart and walked out into the street with his hands behind his back.
Hu Xiaomei and the two had no choice but to follow Sister-in-law Qin through the storefront and into the backyard, and as soon as they entered the yard, they saw a handsome son standing under the eaves. He was directing a few of his men to move the duck feathers out of the house.
Hu Xiaomei followed closely behind Sister-in-law Qin and asked in a low voice, "What is Childe doing?" ”
Sister-in-law Qin glanced at her with a smile: "You will know if you come along." ”
"Childe." Several people approached, and Sister-in-law Qin took the lead in saluting: "People are here." Turning sideways and giving Hu Xiaomei a look, Hu Xiaomei had no choice but to step forward and bow her head: "Childe." ”
On the stairs within sight, there was a corner of a gorgeous dress and a pair of deer velvet boots, together with the cold wind. The corners of her clothes fluttered lightly in the wind, and the fox Xiaomei looked down at the feet on the stairs and turned around, but she didn't see a sound for a long time, and she looked up curiously.
Wei Yu's handsome face was surprised.
Fox Xiaomei followed his gaze, and Thirteen was looking at Wei Yu with a twist.
Could it be that these two people know each other?
"Childe?" Fox Xiaomei screamed tentatively again.
Wei Yu came back to his senses at this time, for the eldest prince who has always been solemn and rigorous, it is rare for this kind of gaffe to occur, and Sister-in-law Qin and Steward Wei are curious to sweep back and forth between Wei Yu and Thirteen.
"Hmm." Wei Yu's face had returned to its previous indifference, and his eyes swept over Hu Xiaomei. Looking at Thirteen again: "Who is this?" ”
"Oh. Childe, this is thirteen, who went to the farm with Fence. He's a good worker! "The first emperor sued Qin's sister-in-law and said busily. Don't forget to say a good word for Thirteen.
Wei Yu nodded, turned and headed towards the antechamber. Sister-in-law Qin and Hu Xiaomei glanced at each other. They all looked puzzled. Then several people followed into the front hall.
Wei Yu sat at the top of the hall. The subordinates were very efficient, and had already replaced him with a cup of hot tea. He held the tea bowl and held the lid. Absentmindedly scraping the tea foam on the tea water.
After several people followed the Wei steward into the hall, they all stood in the center of the hall, and no one dared to speak out without Wei Yu speaking. For a while, I didn't see Wei Yu speak, everyone, you look at me, I look at you. Everyone knows that the eldest prince has something in his heart at this time, maybe this matter is still related to the thirteenth, but who dares to ask? But the big guys can't just stand here all the time, can they?
In the end, Steward Wei had to interrupt Wei Yu's thoughts, and he still called Gongzi a few times before Wei Yu raised his head.
"Childe, how do you pack those duck feathers?"
Wei Yu put away the extra expression on his face and said solemnly: "Put these duck feathers in it first, and don't do down jackets first." ”
"But it's winter at this time, and it's cold this year, so it's time to sell winter clothes. If we don't do it at this time, then we will have to wait for next winter, and by then, I'm afraid that a large number of people will have already imitated our down jackets. The steward said worriedly.
Hearing the three words of the down jacket also pulled Hu Xiaomei back from her thoughts, she now finally heard clearly that Wei Yu and the sewing workshop were in breach of contract to imitate her down jacket, ridiculous people, these people completely took the down jacket as their own and turned it into something that happened to them, and said that they were afraid of others copying it.
Fox Xiaomei grinded her teeth with hatred in her heart, and Amitabha's prayer that the Wei Mansion couldn't make a down jacket.
"We can't do it, and they don't want to do it." Wei Yu said coldly: "If you don't take advantage of the first time this kind of thing happens to solve it, maybe something will go wrong in the future." ”
Fox Xiaomei was stunned, couldn't it be that something happened to this sewing workshop? What's wrong with the down jacket?
"Childe has a point. However, where is the problem, why can't we find out? Speaking of this, Steward Wei's eyebrows were knotted, don't talk about him about the down jacket this time, even Wei Yu personally went over and didn't find out the reason.
"So, I said that there is no hurry to make clothes, let them sell them first." Wei Yu said lightly and looked at Hu Xiaomei: "You can take a look at the few bags of duck feathers that were moved out of the warehouse, I want to rearrange these duck feathers, what methods can be used to save costs and increase our turnover." ”
Don't talk about Sister-in-law Qin, even the Wei steward is stunned, the thing Wei Yu ordered is obviously done by the steward, is it appropriate to let Hu Xiaomei do it? Isn't it a little difficult for her?
Others didn't understand what Wei Yu meant, but Hu Xiaomei and Thirteen did.
Hu Xiaomei looked at Wei Yu with a smile and said, "Yes, Childe." ”
Then, Hu Xiaomei followed the Wei steward to the yard, a few bags of duck feathers have been moved out and put on the wooden board, Hu Xiaomei opened the bags one by one and looked at them, all the duck feathers in them went to the duck tube, according to what Qin's sister-in-law said, all the duck feathers they picked and cut before were left in the tube, and these bags were all without duck tubes, which proves that these bags were temporarily re-selected and cut by Wei Yu.
As she had found before, although the duck tube was cut off in her way, the soft and hard hairs were put together, some of the soft hairs that should have been cut off belonged to the soft hairs, but they were cut together with the hard hairs, and some of the hard hairs were stuck together with the soft hairs.
How can your own worth be fully manifested at once? Besides, she now knows that Wei Yu is her collaborator, and she doesn't know how to get back her own business, and how can she tell Wei Yu everything.
Fox Xiaomei grabbed a handful of duck feathers, threw the softer duck feathers and hard feathers into the two bags, and said while picking: "Feathers that look thinner like this must be softer, so they can't be put together with those hard and long feathers...... That's how everyone recognizes. Let's divide this bag of duck feathers first. ”
The people in the courtyard all looked at Hu Xiaomei in a daze, and Hu Xiaomei threw the duck feathers in her hand back into the cloth bag, raised her eyelids, and looked over.
Everyone came back to their senses, and they came over to pick up the duck feathers in the cloth bag and packed them according to Hu Xiaomei's method, and occasionally put it wrong, Hu Xiaomei would also correct it. This is a very simple matter, and you can feel whether the duck feathers are soft or hard when you touch them.
After a while, the subordinates themselves will recognize, and Hu Xiaomei walked to Wei Yu, who was standing under the eaves and must be looking at her.
"Childe, the sub-packaging of duck feathers has been ordered according to your requirements, and this room of duck feathers must not take two days to be sub-packed."
Wei Yu raised his eyebrows, and his voice was neither happy nor angry: "Did I say that I want to pack like this?" ”
"Didn't Childe say that he wanted to increase his business?" Hu Xiaomei looked at Wei Yu without fear at all.
If it were another subordinate, how could he dare to stare at Wei Yu so blatantly, and the tone of his voice was not disrespectful at all! But Hu Xiaomei is angry with Wei Yu in her heart, so she will naturally bring some words and deeds, and it is not that she wants to deliberately go against Wei Yu, since she is Wei Yu's collaborator, she must always leave some self-esteem and integrity, which day when Wei Yu discovers her true identity, even if she is poor, she will not lose her respectable capital because she has been a subordinate in Wei Mansion.
"I said I was going to find a way to increase the business of the sewing shop, but I didn't ask you to add a snake to the people of a yard to reload the duck feathers. Sister-in-law Qin said that you are clever and have a clear brain, I thought you had a lot of ability, but that's it, do some useless work according to the gourd painting scoop! Wei Yu's face was expressionless, his tone was indifferent, and his words were sharp, Hu Xiaomei was scolded by him for being worthless just by picking up the duck feathers again, and Sister-in-law Qin was secretly anxious when she listened on the side, but at this time, she couldn't come forward to say good things for Hu Xiaomei. Because the eldest prince is such a person, the more good things someone says, the more angry he will be.
Although Sister-in-law Qin didn't understand what the connection between Hu Xiaomei's sub-pack of duck feathers and the child's statement of improving business was related, she felt that Hu Xiaomei must have her own reason, and the eldest son scolded her without listening to Hu Xiaomei's explanation, which was really unfair to Hu Xiaomei.
But Hu Xiaomei is what she strongly recommends to her son, if she is punished for this little thing, then wouldn't she put the cart before the horse and hurt Hu Xiaomei!
Sister-in-law Qin secretly glanced at the Wei steward, but unfortunately the Wei steward drooped her eyelids as if she hadn't seen it. She was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.
And Thirteen had already sunk his face because of Wei Yu's words, if it weren't for the fact that Hu Xiaomei would have to return to the farm, Wei Sanniang and Hu Dayou were also on the farm, he would definitely have cut this human-looking thing immediately.
Fox Xiaomei was still smiling, in fact, she was also angry in her heart, but she couldn't be angry, and said to herself in her heart over and over again, you have to endure it, put up with this bastard first.
"If you want to be valued by the master in Weifu, you have to have the ability to show your hands, those who can only play tricks, don't take out the means that can't be put on the table, this is Weifu Farm, not the back house of a narrow family."
This is very ugly, and it seems that Hu Xiaomei is relying on a clever mouth to coax Sister-in-law Qin to take her out. In order to coax Sister-in-law Qin to take her out to see her son, I don't know what means were used, and she said that Hu Xiaomei, a young yellow flower girl, was like a woman living in an inner house, and she only knew how to be jealous and play tricks.
It's degrading!
Seeing that Hu Xiaomei was so scolded and still calm, Wei Yu was not surprised in his heart, but his purpose was not here, in fact, he was also depressed, when did he have to be a dignified son to play tricks and scold people like a woman? (To be continued.) )
