Chapter 188: Suspicious

Ping'an's stunt won the applause of Liao Yan and Zhao Chuan.

Ping'an was a little embarrassed, handed the bow back to Zhao Chuan, and said humbly: "Feng is ignorant and ugly." ”

Zhao Chuan said with a smile: "I have seen this little brother's ability today, and sure enough, it was the back waves of the Yangtze River that pushed the front waves, and the front waves died tragically on the beach." ”

Liao Yan also smiled and said, "General, my vision is not bad." ”

Zhao Chuan said with great admiration: "Mr. has never been bad. ”

Liao Yan muttered in his heart, why didn't you believe my words before?

Zhao Chuan led Liao Yan and Feng Ping'an to a pavilion to rest, the man was not so particular, he lifted his robe and sat down on the stone pier. After a while, two maids wearing armor came up with tea fruits.

Zhao Chuan asked, "I don't know which master this brother's archery skills learned from?" ”

Ping'an was a little embarrassed and said: "When I was a child, I followed the village children up the mountain to catch hares, took a slingshot to fight, and later made a simple bow and arrow to run behind the buttocks of adults, and occasionally I could hunt some wild things." It's a shame to say that a decent bow and arrow haven't been touched a few times so far. ”

Zhao Chuan was even more surprised, if the heart path was properly adjusted/taught, the future would be limitless, which also strengthened his belief.

Later, Liao Yan and Zhao Chuan talked about business, but they did not avoid peace. Ping'an sat down and couldn't interject, only drank tea quietly, and he secretly looked at this General Zhao.

But I saw Zhao Chuan wearing an indigo cocoon caftan brown, concise and neat, and saw that he was born with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, heroic and extraordinary. Secret Dao, as if I had seen it somewhere before, but I couldn't remember where we had met.

In the general's palace a delay. By the time I returned to Qingtang safely, it was already the second watch.

The Feng family had already been in a hurry, thinking that Ping An had encountered something on the road, and they were relieved to see that he had finally come back smoothly.

"I thought you weren't coming back. Your mother has been to the village several times. ”

Ping'an said: "I met a friend, and he invited me to tea, so I delayed." "I didn't say much about other things, I was afraid that Yunzhu would be worried.

Mrs. Feng warmed up the meal, and everyone sat down to eat together.

Yunzhu was thinking about Tian Tian in her heart. When I returned to the room, I asked about Ping'an's family. Ping An said apologetically, "They didn't even let me in, so I didn't even see each other, I'm really sorry." ”

This result Yunzhu had already anticipated. But when she confirmed it again, there was still a sadness in her eyes.

"Wang's brother-in-law's grocery store is also closed."

Yun Zhu was a little stunned, and hurriedly raised his head and asked, "In the future, we will ask him to help us sell ducks, what should we do now?" ”

Ping An said, "So." I persuaded the brother-in-law of the Wang family to find another shop and open it first. Help us sell the duck first, at least three seasons. When the summer comes, I will change careers and do something else. The brother-in-law of the Wang family also agreed. ”

"That's it. We'll start making ducks next month. ”

Ping An nodded a little nonchalantly.

"You have a hard day, rest early, I'll take a shower."

"Okay, at least it's cold, the water should be hotter, don't get cold."

"I know."

In the past, Ping An could help him make noodles at home, but today she came alone, although her mother-in-law also came to help. But there wasn't much my mother-in-law could do, at most she could help light the fire and wash the dishes. Wipe the table, and Yunzhu will have to come by herself for the rest. It's just that today's business is good, and there are hundreds of bowls of noodles sold. Yunzhu was so tired that her back hurt, and her arms couldn't lift up.

She sat down in front of the dressing table first, untied her hair, removed the hairpin, and took the comb and went through it. I was worried that today's accounts were not right, so I had to take out the money bag and count the money first, then take out the account book, and dial back the abacus.

When he entered the house safely, he saw the candle flame, and Yunzhu sat alone at the table, bowing his head to settle the account. The only sound in the silent room was the crackling of abacus beads.

Ping An hesitated before walking up slowly. A waterfall of black hair poured down, covering half of Yunzhu's face. Seeing this situation, I felt safe and soft, and I couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her hair, and my heart turned a thousand times.

Yun Zhu finally settled the accounts, closed the account book, and turned around and said, "You are really fast." ”

"It's okay. How's business going today? ”

"It's okay, it sold one hundred and eleven bowls."

"Ah, it's the best time in recent times, but I'm not at home, but I'm busy with you, right?" Ping An was a little apologetic, and quickly rubbed Yunzhu's shoulders and arms.

The two of them were lying on the bed talking, and Ping's answers were a little careless, Yunzhu only thought that he was tired from running outside for a day, so he said, "Sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow." ”

The lights went out, and the room was pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers. Ping'an opened his eyes and looked at the top of Hei Yueyue's tent, he remembered the things in the general's mansion, Liao Yan analyzed the current situation in the DPRK and China with him, and told him about those outside things. Originally, I thought that he was just a mountain village man, and he would never be able to touch those things in the court in his life, but he didn't expect to really touch it. He didn't tell Yun Zhu about the affairs of the General's Mansion, he was afraid that Yun Zhu was worried, and besides, he hadn't made up his mind yet. After all, he already has too many ties.

On the second day, it was still dawn and got up, Yun Zhu and Feng Lao Niang said that they would start making ducks next month, Feng Lao Niang nodded and said, "It's okay, I can pickle the duck myself." We did this together for so long last year, and I basically knew the key points. You can sell noodles with confidence. ”

Yunzhu said: "It's okay, if you can't be busy, let Lao Yu help." ”

"I know that."

Two days later, Wang Qingshan came to the Feng family's noodle restaurant.

"My brother-in-law said that the shop has been rented, and said that it is smaller than the previous grocery store, but the street and the location are okay."

"That's good, it looks like we're going to step up on our side."

Wang Qingshan pondered for a while before he said again: "There is a project at the end of the year, do you want to take it?" ”

Ping An smiled: "You see I'm so busy now, I'm just afraid I can't take care of it." ”

Wang Qingshan also smiled: "Yes, now you are the big boss." Naturally, please touch you. However, it doesn't take much effort for you to do this, but you can participate in individual stocks. ”

Ping An suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Dare you think about the money in my pocket?" ”

Wang Qingshan patted Ping'an's head: "I want to take that job." But you don't have any money, so you can still have two dollars in your hand now, what? Do you want to think about it? ”

Ping An asked, "What kind of project is it?" How much does it cost? ”

Wang Qingshan said: "I heard that the river embankment is going to be repaired, and I still owe silver, so I have to find someone to contract." Naturally, the more money, the better. If you pay for it, I will help, and our brothers will take over this matter. How is it? ”

"This job requires a lot of money, I just paid back your brother-in-law's fifty taels, and I can't take out that much at present."

Wang Qingshan nodded and said, "That's right, but you should also have private money, right?" ”

Ping An smiled bitterly: "I have some private money." With so many things this year, I did use a lot of money, and I really didn't save a few. But if you really want to find someone to partner with, why don't you ask Mengzi? ”

"How much money does Mengzi have?"

"I don't know. But he had a brick kiln under his command. It's definitely still generous, and it's not like I've become a family and have to take care of my family. ”

Wang Qingshan sighed: "I don't dare to get married when you say that." ”

"Why?"

"If you become a parent, you won't be free, and the money you earn can't be used as you like, you have to subsidize your family."

The Wang family is quite solid, so Wang Qingshan has not contributed much to the family, but he has really become a family, and he does have to take it out after he has his own small family. So I was a little unwilling.

Ping An patted Qingshan's head and said, "Come on, you're not too young." Talking is still so childish. ”

Yunzhu cooked a bowl of noodles for Wang Qingshan, brought it personally, and said with a smile: "Brother, remember to say a few good words for us in front of your brother-in-law, and we will have to rely on him in the future." ”

Wang Qingshan said while eating noodles: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, as long as you can make money, my brother-in-law is a good person." Your ducks are easy to sell, and he will definitely not let this way of making money run away. ”

This is also the case, businessmen, the most interested in the word profit.

Turning around, Yunzhu asked about Ping'an Wang Qingshan, and Ping'an said it as it was.

Yunzhu said: "It's a pity, if we have that spare money, we will take it." A good opportunity to make a fortune was wasted. ”

"I don't have that money, so I can only watch, I asked him to find a fierce man."

"How much does this project cost?" Yunzhu still wants to encourage Ping An to take a kick.

"If you want to participate in individual stocks, you have to come up with a few hundred taels of silver to have that ability."

Yun Zhu hurriedly said: "All the belongings of our family now don't add up to so much. Can the Liu family get this money? ”

Ping An smiled: "I don't know about this, a few hundred taels may be a little more difficult, but a hundred taels shouldn't be a problem." ”

Yunzhu thought that she couldn't take it out even if it was a hundred or two, it seemed that she only had envy. She told Bi what he told Feng Lao Niang and said Ping'an.

After hearing this, Ping An seemed to be expected, and he didn't say anything.

After a few days, Yunzhu faintly felt that there was something in Ping'an's heart that he hadn't told him, and even after returning from the city that day, he always felt that he was hiding something. Who did Ping An meet that day and what happened, she wanted to ask several times, but was diverted by something else.

Later, Yun Zhu understood that it was not that the timing of her question was wrong, but that Ping An sensed Yun Zhu's intentions and took the initiative to bypass them. Make Yunzhu even more curious.

"Mother, do you have any relatives in the city?"

Feng Lao Niang thought about it carefully, and Fang said, "There shouldn't be." ”

"And what friends does he have who live in the city?"

"It's Aoyama's brother-in-law's family."

"Nothing else?"

Old Lady Feng thought carefully for a long time, nodded and said, "That's all I know." Is there something about peace? ”

Yunzhu shook his head and said: "It's nothing, Ping An said that he has a friend in the city, I just can't guess who it is, so I came to ask my mother." ”

Mrs. Feng immediately smiled and helped her son speak: "Ah Zhu, our family is an honest person, and he won't make friends with any indiscreet people, don't worry." ”

Yunzhu smiled: "I know, maybe I'm too careful." ”

Ping An sometimes stared at Yunzhu with a little reluctance and attachment in his eyes, and sometimes he wanted to stop talking, or sat alone. Yun Zhu really felt that the man next to him had changed a little, that is, when he came back on the second watch that day, he was a little different. Intuition told Yunzhu that something must have happened, and if Ping An didn't say anything, she would find a way to find out.

The shop rented by Wang Qingshan has been cleaned up and can be opened at any time, and now he is waiting for the ducks on Yunzhu's side to come out.

Mrs. Feng took over this job this year, and Yun Zhu pointed out beside her for two days to help taste the taste, and then saw that her mother-in-law was already proficient, so she rarely asked. Within half a month, a hundred ducks had already been prepared.

Ping'an still found a bamboo basket, led his mule, set the carriage, and brought Yu Niu'er to send the ducks.

Yun Zhu repeatedly advised: "Come back early, but don't delay so late." ”

Ping'an said: "Don't worry, I'll come back after handing over the goods, and I won't sell much in the afternoon, so you can close the store early." I'm not around to worry about you. ”

"Well, I know it all."

Yunzhu sent them to the big locust tree before returning.

Xiangmei later made fun of Yunzhu: "Brother is not the first time to enter the city, sister-in-law is so worried about what to do, are you still afraid that he won't be able to recognize the way, he is so big, others can't take advantage of it, you are so reluctant?" ”

Yunzhu just smiled, and without saying a word, he went to the shop to get busy.

After leaving safely, Yunzhu was not in the mood to do anything this day, often unrelenting, and miscalculated once, and once the guest explained not to put the pepper, but Yunzhu scooped a big spoonful, and then had to recook.

Mrs. Feng also saw something strange on the side, and asked her in private, "How are you today?" ”

Yun Zhu sobered up a little and said, "It's nothing." ”

After a long time of worrying, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law closed the shop in the afternoon, and when it was evening, Ping An and Yu Niuer finally came back.

At the moment when Yunzhu saw peace, the hanging heart was relieved.

"I thought you would never come back."

Ping'an's body trembled, and he asked a little uncomfortably: "How come, you think too much." ”

Yunzhu smiled stupidly: "It's me who is cranky." It's good to come back, you must be hungry and tired, whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you. ”

"Whatever."

Yu Niu'er unloaded the carriage, and the mules led it to feed the grass and water.

Yun Zhu went to the vegetable field and pinched a handful of fresh spinach, and the two took a look, Yun Zhu suddenly stopped Yu Niu'er and asked, "Ping An didn't go to another place in the city today, did he?" ”

Yu Niu'er was a little surprised, and hurriedly said, "No." ”

Yunzhu only stretched out the melancholy between his eyebrows at this time, and he said that he was a little oversensitive. She smiled brightly, nodded and smiled, "That's good." ”

Yu Niu'er was confused. (To be continued......)
