178. Chapter 178
The most important thing in Daao Village is gossip, and the news of Su Jinquan beating Lao Tzu soon spread, and the Su family once again stood on the cusp of rumors.
Su Liu heard this rumor and sighed, let's make trouble, the more vigorous the trouble, the better. "I'm afraid this child's future will be ruined." Chen shook his head. "Mother, you still feel sorry for him, what did he do to you in the past, his eyes grew on his head, I expected it today." Su Xiao said coldly: "Look at what he will have to do in the future, he will not be able to pass the Tongsheng exam in his life." "You kid." Chen glared at her in disgust. "Tiny." Chen Ye looked at Su Xiao cautiously, hiding his hand behind him, not knowing what to collect, seeing her waiting for him, he hurriedly changed his words: "Second sister." ”
Su Xiao's face softened, but he raised his chin and said, "What are you talking to me about, I haven't forgiven you yet!" ”
Su Liu smiled and pinched her: "Xiao Nizi's temperament is really big." "No more fooling around." Chen also said angrily. "Mother, sister, you just protect him, you don't like me anymore." Su Xiao pouted and ran out of Lu again, and Chen Ye hurriedly chased after him.
Su Liu saw that Chen shook his head, so he said, "Mother don't pay attention to her, she will smile for a while." ”
Sure enough, within a moment, Su Xiaohuan's voice came from outside the door. "It's a bamboo dragonfly, you made it yourself?"
Chen Ye didn't know what to say, Su Xiao said again: "It's about the same, for the sake of the bamboo dragonfly, my sister will spare you this time." ”
After another while, she said loudly: "Call the second sister, the second sister." ”
Chen Shi smiled when he heard this, and said, "If she is half as calm as you, I will be relieved." "Mother, just indulge her, I'm just such a sister." Su Liu pursed her lips and smiled, although Su Xiao's temperament is explosive, she is also straightforward, such innocence is also rare, she is willing to indulge.
After talking to Chen for a while, Su Liu was driven by Ning Guang and took Ejiao to the town to Baicaotang. "This ejiao is better than the first time." The shopkeeper Fu was very surprised, and said: "Now that it is winter, this ejiao is even more scarce, if the girl's ejiao can be supplied, we will have as much as we need in Baicaotang." ”
There are also a lot of branches in the Baicaotang of Su Liuzhilu Road, and the doctors in each shop are famous, and the price of the medicine is affordable, so the Baicaotang also has a certain reputation. "It's almost the Chinese New Year, and I naturally want to earn more money, but I can't keep busy. But pay the shopkeeper, don't worry, I will only use this ejiao in Baicaotang. Su Liu said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Fu smiled more and more when he heard this, and said: "You said before that you wanted to find a shop, and Ya Yu already has news, you have a cup of tea first, and I will send someone to ask her to come over and talk to you." ”
Su Liu nodded with a smile when he heard this, and followed the man into the inner courtyard of Baicao Hall.
This time, because Ejiao wants to be more pure, the price is also higher, and the silver obtained is as much as one hundred and fifty taels.
That is, the kung fu of the two teas, the tooth that the shopkeeper Fu said arrived, and the shopkeeper Fu gave the two of them faces, and what surprised Su Liu was that this tooth was actually a woman. "My husband's surname is Wu, and you call me Wu Niangzi." Wu Niangzi has a loud voice, and she is also five big and three thick, her hair is neatly combed into a short bun, with a smile at the corner of her mouth, and her temperament is very hearty and generous. "I thought the toothymen were all men." Su Liu was a little surprised, most of the people who are middle-aged people are men, after all, it is much more convenient for men than women to go to a place like Yamen. "Actually, this tooth is made by my dead ghost man, he is good, the short-lived one went early, leaving me and the three children, and there are two old ones on top, this family of six mouths, I always have to carry it, right? Pingsu listened to what he said a lot, so he also knew the Tao, so he simply took it over and did it. Wu Niangzi explained hehehe.
Su Liu opened her mouth wide in surprise, Wu Niangzi looked like she was about the same age as the Chen family, and she turned out to be a hexagram woman? Moreover, there are few people who take life and death so lightly, this martial lady said that she had no man, and her expression was not sad at all.
Is it too strong? Or keep the pain to yourself?
In any case, Su Liu only has a good impression of her, and she likes people who are neat and neat.
has already met, so they won't talk anymore, and the two of them went directly to the shop. "If this shop is rented, it will cost three taels of silver a month, and if it is bought out, it will cost one hundred and twenty taels of silver." Wu Niangzi led Su Liu to the shop she saw, and said: "The location is excellent, sitting north and facing south, if it is my suggestion, if the silver is loose, it is best to buy it." In this way, if you don't do business, you can rent out the money to collect rent. ”
While talking, I arrived at the shop that Wu Niangzi said, which used to be a tea shop, and there was a small kitchen at the back, about twenty square meters, but it could also put down three or two tables. "I heard that the old mother is not very good and wants to go back to the countryside, so the owner of this shop is inclined to sell." Wu Niangzi followed Su Liu and said.
Su Liu looked back and forth, the shop was facing the street, and you could see passers-by coming and going, and the location was really good.
Although it is twenty square meters, if you are a dim sum shop, it is enough, and if you don't make dim sum in the future, it will be better if you want to sell ejiao. "I want to buy this shop, but in terms of price, I don't know if there can be less? I also had to redecorate, which was expensive. Su Liu said with a smile.
Wu Niangzi listened and said, "If you don't leave in a hurry if you have nothing to do, I will go and ask you." ”
Su Liu nodded, and Wu Niangzi asked her to wait at the tea and soup stall opposite, and she went in a hurry.
Sitting at the tea soup stall, Su Liu had already drunk a lot of tea in Baicaotang, but she was actually not thirsty, but the tea seller was an old lady, so she asked for a bowl of tea and a small plate of melon seeds.
Wu Niangzi is obviously a cheerful person, in less than half an hour, she turned around, although it was winter, but she was also full of sweat. "Asked, asked."
Su Liu saw her panting and said with a smile: "Lady Wu, you should take a sip of tea to moisten your mouth first." As he spoke, he asked for another bowl of tea.
Wu Niangzi was also thirsty, grabbed the tea bowl and drank it with a grunt, and said: "I told them, you really want to buy it, and the family is also anxious to go back to the hometown, one hundred and five taels of silver, no less." ”
With less than fifteen taels, Su Liu was already full of joy, and said with a smile: "That's really thanks to the lady's tongue and lotus." ”
Wu Niangzi hid and said: "Don't worry, although my Wu Niangzi is a woman, since she has done this business, this reputation must be there, and she will never be deceived by you." "The shopkeeper Fu said that the lady has a good reputation, and I believe it." Su Liu had to give a few compliments.
Wu Niangzi's face was shocked, and she patted Xiong's mouth and said: "My dead ghost man said that this person, especially being a tooth, must have credit." ”
Seeing that she looked like a man, Su Liu pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "When will you prepare the paperwork?" "Naturally, the sooner the better, and if it's okay, I'll go back and prepare." Wu Niangzi drank the tea from the tea bowl. "Don't worry, I still have something I want to trust the martial lady." "You say." "My family has more than ten acres of land, and there are only a few weak women in the family, and they can't do it, so they want to recruit two long-term workers, thinking that since the lady is a tooth boy, she naturally knows people, can you find me two good ones?" Su Liu told him what he was going to do, and said, "Don't worry, this Chinese commission will not be less than the lady's." "It's not difficult, this long-term worker has signed a contract for ten years, and there are also five years, but I don't know how much you pay a year?" "Lady, I don't know about this market, you can talk to me." Su Liu didn't know how much the ancient wages were, so he hesitated for a moment and asked.
This martial lady is also an expert, and she said it in detail at once, not only that, but also said the monthly money of the maid, even the horseman who drove the horse.
Su Liu was silent for a moment, and then said: "The salary I give is eight taels of silver a year, if the service is good, there will be a reward at the end of the year, and the other four sections will also give two catties of pork and two catties of rice." ”
Wu Niangzi's eyes lit up, Su Liu's salary is extremely rich, ordinary peasant families are really poor, but they can't earn eight taels of silver a year, not to mention the meat and rice pie during the festival. "It's a great blessing to be able to find a master like a girl." Wu Niangzi praised with a smile.
Su Liu smiled shyly and said, "Lady, my family is my family, and they are all women and children, you need to help me find two honest and willing to work, and it is best to have experience in farming." "Don't worry, with the salary you offered, you want to find someone, and many people are vying for it." Wu Niangzi patted her heart and said, "Leave this matter to me." ”
The two agreed for a moment before they got up and left. "Ouch, you son of a, you have to snatch the coffin of the old woman and throw it into that hole, you killed it this day, you unfilial son."
The two of them had only walked a few steps before they heard a loud noise in the stall behind them, and then a cry sounded.
Su Liu turned his head to look and saw the old lady selling tea grabbing a man's trouser leg and crying loudly, while the man was holding a jar.
Su Liu recognized that the jar was the old lady's copper coin, a penny, tea to drink, and I didn't know how much tea I had to burn to earn a few pennies, but it was robbed.
The man kicked off the old lady's hand, poured all the copper plates of the jar into his coat pocket, and quickly ran past Su Liu, and one of them dropped a copper plate, and hurriedly turned around and picked it up.
The old lady was holding an empty jar, crying heartbreakingly, and Su Liu frowned. "This gambling house is harmful, this person, getting involved in gambling is a dead end." Wu Niangzi shook her head and said: "The man just now is the son of this old lady, who was originally very good, and also helped people do some things to pull goods, and the family was harmonious and beautiful, but he got involved in gambling, and the mother-in-law of the family also ran away, leaving a girl and an old woman." Hey, now that he is robbing the money for his mother's coffin, you see, next time he is afraid that he will sell his daughter. ”
Su Liu was silent, this gambling is like poison, once it is touched, it is difficult to quit, and because of this, there are many people who are ruined.
This matter was just an episode, and Su Liu didn't think much about it, after all, she was not a savior, and everyone had their own fate.
