Chapter 197: Heartwarming
The daughter-in-law gave the post in her hand to Wanning, Wanning opened it and saw that it said the He family, and after thinking about it carefully, she didn't seem to know the He family in Yangzhou.
"Did you say anything?"
The daughter-in-law said: "There is a Qin Wulang who came with him, saying that the young lady knows. ”
Qin Wu is Langzhong, who treated Mrs. Li with her, how could he come from Yangzhou to find her, and brought the He family.
Yangzhou Hejia.
Wan Ning suddenly thought of what Jiang Jingyu had said, the He family had treated her grandmother.
Could it be that this He family is Jiang Jingyu's grandmother's house.
Wan Ning asked the daughter-in-law, "What about the He family?" ”
The daughter-in-law said: "I heard that the young lady was not at home, so I sent a post saying that I would come to visit tomorrow." ”
Wan Ning nodded.
The daughter-in-law went out, and Brother Kun looked at Wanning, "Sister is going back?" ”
Wan Ning shook her head, the He family was not in a hurry, she wanted to talk to Brother Kun more.
A smile immediately appeared on Brother Kun's face, "Sister, my father bought me a new saddle and stirrups," he said, running over and holding a horse whip in his hand, "and a horse whip, just right for my pony." ”
The verbena is shiny, and the size is also suitable for Kunge.
"Sister," Brother Kun's eyes were very bright, "You haven't seen me ride a horse yet, my father just made a Zhuangzi, let's go over and have a look!" ”
……
Mrs. Shen and Shen are talking, Shen Jingyuan bought Zhuangzi in Beijing, even if he settles down, Shen talks about things in Yangzhou over the years, "It's still good in Yangzhou, and the food in Beijing is always unaccustomed." ”
"It's good in Zhuangzi." Mrs. Shen Si smiled and said, "Zhuangzi recruited a long-term worker, and your brother let people fire on Zhuangzi." The cook is also a sincere person, and she doesn't see the fineness of the work, that is, she cooks a large piece of meat on the stove, saying that she pays attention to this here, and your brother looks at Changgong and stuffs the meat into his mouth with a mouthful of steamed buns, and says that the owner is good. ”
Shen made an calculation, "My brother buys a field and opens a shop." It's going to be busy for a while. ”
"It doesn't matter," Mrs. Shen Si smiled and wrapped around the cotton thread in her hand, "If it's good for Brother Kun in the future." Don't say that you can't sell salt openly, even if you don't let you do business, the master will find a way. Brother Kun is safe and sound, and in the future, Wanning Shunshun lì Li will marry someone. It is the greatest blessing of our family. ”
Listen to my aunt and mother. Wan Ning and Brother Kun glanced at each other, Wan Ning smiled and patted Brother Kun, "I'll accompany my mother to settle the accounts first, and then I'll go to Zhuangzi with you." ”
As soon as the words fell, Shen Jingyuan led people in from outside, and several large boxes of accounts were carried into the house, followed by Jiao Wuying and a few shopkeepers.
Wan Ning walked in and looked at Jiao Wuying to help take inventory.
Buy grain from Taixing to open a shop in the capital, buy tea back and forth and ask the master who makes the pot. and bought purple sand in Changzhou Mansion, and she knew some of the general accounts. How much money was earned has not yet been calculated.
The sound of an abacus sounded in the room, and Wan Ning stood up and followed her mother to look at the accounts calculated by the shopkeeper one by one.
Brother Kun sat for a while and was a little anxious to send the little guy around him, "Go to Zhuangzi and talk to Second Brother Cui, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Zhuangzi." ”
When the little guy went out, it was already snowing outside, the snow was bigger than the poplar flowers, and it was falling down one by one, and he couldn't open his eyes when he stood outside for a while, and if he sat in the carriage to go to Zhuangzi at this time, he could see a good scene, but if he stood outside and waited, he would be cold enough.
The little guy thought in his heart that he went to Zhuangzi with a smoke, and outside the city gate, he saw Cui Yiting standing there with a horse, and the little guy hurriedly stepped forward to tell the sixth master.
Cui Yiting had no intention of leaving, and the little servant said: "The sixth master said that he would have to wait for the seventh lady to come out, it was snowing outside again, Cui Erye should go back early, the family is planning to plate, I'm afraid I won't be able to fight for a while." ”
Yao Wanning helped to look at the accounts?
Cui Yiting nodded, "Tell you sixth master, the old place is still waiting for him." ”
The little guy raised his head when he heard this, and the heavy snow fell right on the tip of his nose, when will this snow stop.
When the little guy walked away, Chen Bao said in surprise on the side: "Miss Yao Qi still has to settle the accounts by herself...... "He heard that everyone is a piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is really rare to settle accounts, and now that Miss Yao Qi has returned to Yao's house, why do you have to take care of these in person."
Chen Bao didn't finish speaking, he only felt a cold gaze looking over, and his huge body suddenly shivered, and he didn't dare to continue to speak.
Then came the second master's clear voice, "No matter what you do, you rely on your own ability, and others can't support such a big family." ”
Chen Bao nodded again and again and stood back in the snow nest.
……
The earth dragon in the house was burning very hot, Wan Ning held the stove and worked with Shen Si to calculate how much silver should be used to buy a field next year, and how much silver to open a shop.
Brother Kun walked back and forth a few times, Wan Ning saw that the accounts in Jiao Wuying's hand had bottomed out, and raised her head to see Brother Kun looking at her, so she walked over and talked to Brother Kun outside, "What's wrong?" ”
Brother Kun said: "It's not that I said that I would go to Zhuangzi." ”
Wan Ning looked at the heavy snow outside, "Let's wait until the weather is better to go!" ”
It made people wait for several hours, and now it has been changed to not going.
There was a look of loss and regret in Kunge's eyes.
These days, I am busy preparing for the New Year, and my heels don't touch the ground inside and out, and I didn't look at Brother Kun's expression carefully just now, but now I can see some clues, "What's wrong?" ”
Brother Kun said in a low voice: "I said to go to Zhuangzi to ride a horse, and Second Brother Cui was waiting outside, and I had been waiting for several hours." ”
Cui Yiting won't be waiting all the time, right?
This snow has been falling for a long time, and Zhuangzi will definitely not be able to go.
Wan Ning looked at Brother Kun, "Go and ask someone, if you haven't left yet, please come into the house!" "No one can stand outside for a few hours in this weather, and eighty percent of them are gone.
Brother Kun suddenly got out of joy and hurriedly ordered his subordinates.
After a quarter of an hour's effort, the subordinate ran back with a hot breath, "When the little one went, Second Master Cui was still standing outside the city, and now he is coming into the courtyard." ”
Wan Ning was stunned, she didn't expect Cui Yiting to wait outside for so long.
Brother Kun put on his coat and went to the courtyard. Wan Ning also followed.
In the garden full of snow, Cui Yiting walked over wearing a ferret cloak, and the cloak was stained with snow. Standing in the sunlight as if steaming and mist, and looking closely at the half-melted frost on it, he raised his head, his eyebrows and eyes were stained with snow, the corners of his slender eyes seemed to be frozen, and his delicate face looked much fairer than before.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Cui Yiting raised his head. He didn't move his eyebrows, just stood there quietly and looked at her.
I don't know when a big white cat ran out of the garden and stopped beside Cui Yiting. looked up at Cui Yiting, and then screamed "meow", shaking his body angrily, and suddenly the snow on his fur was shaken and scattered. Got it clean. The cat licked its paws again, then raised its beard and shouted proudly at Cui Yiting twice.
The ferret's cape, which usually looks arrogant, is now covered with frost that can't be shaken off, and even a cat is disgusted to look at.
Looking at the man and the cat, Wan Ning couldn't help but laugh.
The garden just swept out a road, Wan Ning walked on it, and Cui Yiting stepped on the snow beside him. And so, in the snow beside her. Footprints were left behind.
Brother Kun was going to fold flowers for his aunt, and he ran away with the maid.
Wan Ning stopped, "Brother Kun hasn't had time to thank you yet." ”
"Wanning." A clear voice came from the side.
If she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she wouldn't have thought that someone like Cui Yiting could be so patient and speak in a soft voice.
Wan Ning turned away.
"What I said before was serious." The snow seemed to melt into his eyes, and became a trickle in them.
"I know that you are a good family and a smart person," Cui Yiting looked at Wan Ning quietly, "But I didn't plan for this." ”
Wan Ning looked at his serious face, "You asked my guy in Yangzhou if there is a relative surnamed Jiang in our family, and you also asked Uncle Jiang about the same person in Taixing, have you found this person now?" ”
His eyebrows and eyes were silent, "I asked that person, but I don't look for him now." ”
Wan Ning didn't understand, "Why?" "I asked the Shen family about this matter, and then asked the Yao family, why did you suddenly not look for it again.
Cui Yiting said: "Do you feel that some people are familiar? ”
Wan Ning thought about it for a while, and when she saw Pei Mingzhao for the first time in Taixing, she saw the way he looked when he was on a horse, which made her feel a sense of déjà vu.
That feeling disappeared in a flash, she didn't investigate it at the time, sometimes people are so strange, just like she and Cui Yiting, no matter what they do, they don't seem to need too much explanation.
The person she likes should be a down-to-earth and stable person with a strong sense of responsibility, no matter what, it can't be a somewhat arrogant and flamboyant character like Cui Yiting.
knew this clearly in his heart, and wanted to stay away from Cui Yiting, but in the end, Cui Yiting was getting closer and closer to her.
Like footprints in the snow, he is there for her whenever she walks forward.
Wan Ning said: "Who do you think is like ......?"
Cui Yiting shook his head, "I looked for that person because I felt that person should be in my heart, and then I did have someone in my heart, and I don't think I have to look for it again." ”
Wan Ning was a little surprised, he explained so bluntly, without concealing it.
She had her own ideas, and she had such a neat temperament, and he knew she was unlikely to agree anytime soon.
But he didn't expect her to ask him about it, and the sudden joy was like a beam of sunshine shining on his eyebrows, making him can't help but want to raise his eyebrows.
"The imperial court wants to recruit pirates to fight against the Japanese, Fujian is not peaceful, I heard Brother Kun say that your uncle is going back to Yangzhou to go to Quanzhou Mansion to see the tea garden."
Listening to Cui Yiting's words, Wan Ning nodded.
Cui Yiting said: "It's best to go later, even if there is something important, you can let the guy do it." ”
Zhao'an pirates fight against the Japanese?
"The pirate is willing to be recruited?" Wan Ning asked.
Cui Yiting said: "On the surface. ”
In other words, no one knows what will happen in fact, since Cui Yiting asked his uncle to be careful not to go to Fujian, then this matter is really not small.
