Chapter 241: Mo Niang
After leaving Xu's house, the sister-in-law did not return to the house immediately, but let the carriage turn to the main street. They rarely go out of the house on weekdays, and since they came out, they want to go to Qiaoweiju to have a look.
There were many people on the road, and the carriage walked very slowly, and when it was almost at the door of Qiaoweiju, Shu Yao heard a sharp scolding: "Where did the little rabbit cub come from, dare to hit the old lady?" Ah——, my new clothes! Don't go, you stand for me, and you want to run away after making my clothes like this? Come with the silver! ”
What a familiar shrill voice! Shu Yao frowned, Zhao Erbao's daughter-in-law Cheng? Why is she cursing here?
A childish voice came: "Mother, it wasn't me who hit her, it was she who rushed out and knocked me down." ”
Cheng seemed to jump up again: "If you don't block the door, I will bump into you...... No...... Am I going to get bumped into by you? ”
The answer was a very good-sounding, but tired and hoarse female voice at the moment: "Mrs., this store is so big, how big is Bao'er?" Why did you block the doorway? You burst out and knocked down Bao'er, and I haven't said anything yet. ”
Someone next to him quickly chimed in:
"That is, I saw this kid cautiously entering from the very side, who is in the way?"
"Isn't it? I burst out like a gust of wind and hit my arm. ”
"It's really unreasonable, I don't apologize when I hit someone, and I bite back."
……
Cheng was anxious: "What nonsense are you talking about?" Do you know who I am? I am the aunt of Yongping Hou Shizi, this Qiaoweiju is our family, I love to walk at the door of my store, and I will lose money if I get my clothes dirty. ”
"The uncle?" The nice female voice hesitated. "Our mother and son just arrived. I really don't have a penny on me. Otherwise, you can tell you how much money you have, you owe it first, and then I will pay you when I find a job. ”
Cheng glanced at the mother and son: "No money? I think this little cub has good clothes, right? No money? You want to pit the old lady, right? Wait, looking for a job? In this way, my dress is two taels of silver, and you go to work in my family's sauerkraut factory. Count you ten cents a day, cover two meals for your mother and son, and let you take advantage of it, and work in my house for half a year, which is considered to be the loss of my clothes. ”
"Phew," a woman next to her immediately said with disdain, "Just your dress, what about 200 yuan and two taels of silver?" When no one has eyes? Besides, the clothes are just dirty. It's not broken, why should people pay for it? ”
Another woman said, "Yes." Bullying outsiders, right? Little lady, you don't have to be afraid of her, several masters of the Yongping Marquis Mansion are good people. Ah, isn't this aunt the scoundrel who wanted to calculate that Yongping Hou Shizi to be her son-in-law that year? ”
Immediately, more people remembered: "Oh, it's really eh, how can such a person be embarrassed to come again?" Dare to say that Qiaoweiju is her family? ”
A person dressed as a housekeeper and mother of a large family walked out of Qiaowei Ju with two boxes of snacks in his hand, and snorted: "Yo, this mother and daughter just wanted to take dim sum for nothing in it, and they wanted to blackmail people when they went out?" ”
Xinghua, who was trying to help her mother next to her, heard people mention the farce of the "marriage contract" that year, and was pointed out that the snacks in the store did not arrive, and the sentence "mother and daughter" brought her out, and her face was suddenly flushed, and she stomped her feet and threw her mother away.
Cheng's face was also flushed, but her skin had been tested for a long time, and it was naturally much thicker than the apricot blossom. Cocking his neck, he drank: "No matter how I say that I am the uncle of the prince, they still dare to disobey me, you have to talk nonsense, I will let my niece and niece send you all to prison." ”
Shu Yao, who had already put on her hat, got out of the carriage: "Aunt Cheng, we in the Yongping Marquis Mansion don't have the right to send people to prison at will." And my eldest brother once explained to the county government that whether it is a relative or a subordinate of the Yongping Hou Mansion, as long as they violate the law and bully others, they will ask the county government to increase the punishment, and our Yongping Hou Mansion will never allow and favor such people. ”
"Crackling" The crowd around immediately applauded:
"Okay, I'll just say that the masters of the Yongping Marquis Mansion are all good people, right?"
"That's it, Xia Zhutou...... Belch...... How can children taught by people like the Marquis of Yongping bully people? ”
"Just that's it"
……
Nangong Miao said to her maid: "Red sleeves, take 200 yuan to Aunt Cheng, and treat it as the mother and son who paid her." Red Sleeves told her just now that Cheng's gown doesn't need 200 wen, which is 160 wen.
Cheng's was too little, and he was about to speak, when he heard Nangong Miao continue: "Take two taels of silver to that lady again, it is our Yongping Hou Mansion that shocked their mother and son, and it is also an apology, after all, Uncle Cheng is a relative of our Hou Mansion, and it is at the door of our Qiaowei Residence." ”
Cheng's urgency: "Why? Why? It was the little bunny who hit me and soiled my clothes, so why apologize? If you want to be shocked, you will also be shocked by me. ”
Mother Liu said to a guard next to her: "You send your uncle's wife back, tell the second uncle what happened, and ask him to suppress the shock of the second uncle's wife." ”
As soon as Cheng heard this, his face immediately changed greatly, and he snatched the purse of the copper coin handed over by the red sleeves: "Don't send it from him, don't need him to send it, I'll go back by myself, our sauerkraut workshop is very busy today, and the owner doesn't have time to talk to people." After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.
Just kidding, if she really asked the guard to "send" her back, and then sue Zhao Erbao, Zhao Erbao would not have frightened her, but made her "frightened". Zhao Erbao had warned her a long time ago that if she provoked the niece and niece of the Yongping Marquis Mansion again, she would definitely settle the new and old accounts together, and directly divorce her.
Today's Zhao Erbao is not the talkative Zhao Erbao a few years ago, the honest person has finally been angry with her, but for the sake of a pair of children, he reluctantly disobeyed his mother Zhao He and left her behind, so in the past two or three years, Cheng has been very "honest".
Xinghua's reputation was ruined because of the farce of the "marriage contract", and she never talked about her family. Finally, a matchmaker came to the door, saying that it was the only son of a merchant family selling steamed buns in a neighboring county, and the family was also quite solid, but it was slightly disabled (the left foot was slightly shorter than the right foot), but it was almost impossible to see after wearing special platform shoes. The young man is four years older than Xinghua, and he looks good and energetic.
For Xinghua, who has a bad reputation and is not high or low, this is already a good marriage.
And the family is also very satisfied, firstly, the apricot blossom is really good-looking, and secondly, the Zhao family is a relative of the Yongping Hou Mansion after all, although the Xinghua mother and daughter offended the prince, but the three brothers and sisters of the Hou Mansion are all good people who value love and righteousness, as long as they don't do evil, in case something really happens, I believe they will not stand by and not help. It is not easy for a small businessman to have such a noble backer.
made an appointment tomorrow for the man to come to the Zhao family with the matchmaker to set up a family affair, Cheng in order to save face, and also to show the relationship between his family and the Yongping Hou Mansion, Xinghua can take a shelf in the future, so he thought about entertaining the prospective in-laws with Qiaoweiju's dim sum, and then let them carry a box back.
But Qiaoweiju's dim sum was frighteningly expensive, so she was reluctant to spend money to buy it, so she risked being known by Zhao Erbao and wanted to take it for nothing, but the two guys didn't get in the oil and salt, and only said that several of their own masters came to the store to buy dim sum and had to pay cash, which is the rule of Qiaoweiju and Mixue Tofu Factory, no matter which one is the same.
Cheng and Xinghua were angry, but they didn't dare to make a big fuss, so they rushed out angrily, and as a result, they knocked down Xiao Bao'er, who was about to enter the store. When the child fell backwards and fell to the ground, he instinctively grabbed Cheng's gown, and his little hands were dirty, leaving two small handprints on the gown.
It's like that.
Looking at the embarrassment of Cheng's escape from the sea, everyone laughed. The woman who pointed out that Cheng's clothes were not worth two taels of silver said to Bao'er's mother: "Little lady, tell you that the people in the Yongping Marquis Mansion are all good people!" Aren't you going to thank Mrs. Shizi and the girl of the Xia family? ”
At this time, Red Sleeves also happened to take two taels of silver and handed it to Bao'er Niang.
Bao Er Niang didn't reach out to take it, she just looked at Nangong Miao and Shu Yao in a daze, but unfortunately both of them were wearing hats, and she couldn't see her face.
Shu Yao was also looking at Bao'er Niang in surprise, this woman looks like her mother, but she is younger than her mother, she should only be twenty-four or five years old, and she is much darker than her mother. Also, there is a mole between the mother's right eyebrow, but Bao'er Niang does not.
Oh, just for this fate, I should help her today.
Nangong Miao's face was also surprised, she was surprised that this Bao'er mother was how similar to Yao'er?
"Why are you stunned? Those two are our Lady and Lady. Red Sleeves touched Bao'er's hand amusefully, "Ah, are you sick?" Why are your hands so cold? ”
Bao'er cried: "My mother has been sick for several days, but the money for the medicine was stolen, and we had a meal once in the past two days, and I originally wanted to go in and ask for a piece of cake for my mother to eat." ”
Nangong Miao saw that Bao Erniang's face was indeed very bad, so she turned her head to Red Sleeves and said, "You send her to the front hospital first, pay for the medical expenses, and leave ten taels of silver for their mother and son." By the way, Hongyi, you go in and pack a few pieces of snacks and come out to cushion them first, and then they will be hungry, and the children will be hungry and sick. ”
Bao'er bowed deeply: "Xie Lu Xie, Xie Lu Xie, in the future, Bao'er will have money, and he will definitely pay it back twice." ”
When everyone heard such a four- or five-year-old child say, "I will pay back double the money", and laughed kindly. Nangong Miao and Shu Yao also smiled, but they were a little curious about little Bao'er, this child's face was grateful, but not humble, there seemed to be an innate momentum on his body, although his clothes were dirty and a little embarrassed, the material was quite good. This mother and son should not be ordinary people!
When Bao Erniang was leaving, she glanced at Shu Yao deeply: "Xie Lu Xie, my name is Mo Niang, I won't take your money for nothing, when I get better, I will work for you to pay off the debt, I will do a lot of things." (To be continued......)
