Chapter 042: An Agreement is reached
Gui Pozi immediately pulled Lao Shi's clothes, Lao Shi instantly understood what she meant, quickly took off the silver bag around his waist, and handed it to Rao Xuekong with both hands.
"Third Miss, all the silver on the little one's body is given to you, please don't tell me about it."
Rao Xuekong didn't pick up the money bag, she glanced at it, the size of that point, it was estimated to be a few taels of silver. Dare to love, they all know that this third lady is so poor and shallow-eyed?
Although she is poor now, this time she doesn't want these taels of silver.
Rao Xuekong shook his head and said, "What are you doing here?" Where did Miss Ben ask you for money? β
Lao Shi and Gui Pozi were taken aback, and asked in unison, "Third Miss, are you really going to denounce us?" β
"Hey, I don't want to either, this kind of thing, I don't have to let myself lose my identity when I say it! In fact, Miss Ben wanted to go out for a trip, and she was about to ask Mrs. Gui if she could make it convenient. As he spoke, he glanced at Mrs. Gui.
Mrs. Gui and Lao Shi glanced at each other quickly, and then Mrs. Gui had a smile on her face, and said while taking out the key: "Look at what Miss San said, Miss can just tell me if she has something!" β
Rao Xuekong laughed when he saw her acquaintance, Lao Shi had never seen Liu Yunwei smile like this, so he was stunned. Rao Xuekong smiled, glanced at him and said, "Old Shi, aren't you leaving?" β
Lao Shi responded again and again, running fast.
Mrs. Gui opened the door and was about to come to help Rao Xuekong: "Third Miss, where are you going, do you need a slave to help you go?" β
"No, I'll be back soon, ah, by the way, I won't be able to enter the door when I come back, right?"
"How can this be! The slave and maid waited for the third lady by the door, and never let the third miss wait longer. β
Rao Xuekong went out satisfied.
Gui Pozi closed the door, leaned against the door, patted one hand on her chest, and exhaled heavily.
Outside the west back door is a two-meter-wide bluestone alley, and on the other side is the wall of another family next to it, the red wall and green tile wall are also high, and you can't see the inside. I only knew that it seemed to be a secluded place in the courtyard of the other party, and no sound came out.
One end of the alley is the direction leading to Nan'an Street, but the distance is a little far, so Rao Xuekong walked to the other end.
Walked dozens of meters to the mouth of the alley, in front of a street that can not be compared with Nan'an Street, although the width is enough for two carriages side by side, but far less than Nan'an Street, the shops on both sides are also less, and the faΓ§ade looks old, smaller. But in Rao Xuekong's opinion, it is already very good, and the shops are not small, and, as Lancao said, there is a steamed bun shop at the mouth of this alley.
A woman in her thirties, dressed in an indigo coarse cloth garment, with a bun with two blue silk flowers on it, and a white coarse cloth apron tied around her waist, was wiping the table with a rag. The bun shop is very small, and there are two sets of tables and chairs inside, which are made of bamboo. But it was extremely clean, which made Rao Xuekong very impressed.
Lancao said that this woman's name is Fu Niang, her husband's surname is Chen, and everyone calls her Chen's sister-in-law.
"Sister-in-law of the Chen family, do you still have buns?" Rao Xuekong asked, standing in front of the stack of bamboo steamers at the door.
Fu Niang followed the prestige, and saw a girl in a beautiful skirt looking at her with a clear gaze like a pool of water.
Call yourself the sister-in-law of the Chen family, it should be someone in the neighborhood, it seems to be a young lady, but how could a young lady come out to buy steamed buns by herself when it is so late? Fu Niang was stunned, listened to the girl ask again, and quickly came back to her senses and replied: "There are only vegetable buns, and vegetable meat buns and meat buns are sold out." β
Look at her stupidity, why did people come out to buy buns by themselves, and what did it matter to her? All she had to do was sell steamed buns.
Rao Xuekong was a little regretful, she wanted to eat meat buns, but Lancao said that there were only two sellers of steamed buns on this street, and the other one was far away.
"Then please give me ten buns." Vegetable buns are a penny, vegetable and meat buns are two buns and a bun, which is a filling made of green vegetables and a little meat foam, and the meat buns are pure meat, and they are three pennies each.
Fu Niang neatly took the oil paper and picked up ten buns for her, took the money, and asked, "This young lady, are you here nearby?" β
Rao Xuekong nodded, "Yes." By the way, does the sister-in-law of the Chen family know where to sell firewood? β
Fu Niang is even more strange now, a young lady came out to buy firewood by herself? But she still responded: "You can ask the right person, my bun shop uses a lot of firewood every day, so I found someone to send firewood at a fixed time, his firewood is not wet at all, and the price for me is cheaper." β
Rao Xue was overjoyed, and immediately asked, "I don't know if the sister-in-law of the Chen family can ask for more firewood for me every time?" β
"Why not, but where is the young lady's firewood going?"
"Just let him go to the west back door of Liufu in the alley, and give it to Gui Pozi who guards the door."
Fu Niang felt that this should not be Miss Qianjin, but a maid in Liufu, but even if it was a maid, Liufu didn't need her to procure these? With a bunch of doubts in her heart, Fu Niang didn't dare to ask, so she nodded and responded, "It just so happens that the shop wants more today, will the girl want it?" If you want to get something, you can even out the past. β
"Thank you so much for the sister-in-law of the Chen family!" Rao Xuekong was overjoyed, she originally thought that she would have to come out next time to do this well, but she didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
Under the guidance of the Chen family's sister-in-law, Rao Xuekong went to the tableware shop to buy a set of dishes, chopsticks and spatula, and went to the rice shop to buy ten catties of rice, bought some flour, and then bought some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and asked the guys from the rice shop to help her send her to the west back door. Fu Niang also asked her husband Chen Xiu to bring a bundle of firewood over and stack it all at the door.
Rao Xuekong gave him the silver, and as soon as Chen Xiu turned around and left, Gui Pozi opened the door and looked at her and the pile of things on the ground in amazement.
"Mrs. Gui, why don't you help me move things in?"
"Hey, hey, yes, the slave will move immediately." Gui Pozi came back to her senses and immediately moved her things to the door quickly.
After she finished moving her things and locked the door again, Rao Xuekong looked at her and said slowly: "Mrs. Gui, these things I bought are not in accordance with the rules, right?" If the eldest lady knew about it, she wouldn't spare me, wouldn't she? β
Gui Pozi hurriedly said: "Third Miss, the slave will not say it, this west back door has not been walked for a long time, and others will not find out." β
Rao Xuekong said again: "Maybe I have to go out more often in the future?" β
"The slave maid will open the door for the third lady at any time and wait for the door."
Rao Xuekong smiled with satisfaction. Today, she came out and gained a lot from this trip! Although it is not ethical to catch other people's handles and threaten others, but special circumstances are not treated?
Zuihou Gui Pozi also found a flat shoulder to come out, and picked all her things to Ximo Courtyard, and when she left, Rao Xuekong gave her two buns, and Gui Pozi thanked her a little exaggeratedly.
Lancao was dumbfounded.
