As soon as the valley rain passed, the weather followed suitably hot, and the spring shirt on the body became more and more heavy, and people only felt inexplicably bored when they wore it.

The housekeeper hurriedly walked through the verandah, and the maid who followed him was still urging: "You have to hurry up, that Cao family's mother-in-law is not a good temperament, Sister Shuangxi had a dislike with her before, just now I came to look for you, and the mother-in-law of the Cao family said that she would tear Sister Shuangxi's mouth." ”

The housekeeper frowned: The Cao family's mother-in-law is a pulp washer, and her strength is comparable to that of an adult man. Double happiness is a little girl, where is her opponent.

His steps became more and more compact, and the maid trotted along, and after a short time he turned the cloister and heard a sharp quarrel.

"You little girl, it's really ridiculous, I want to wear whatever I want, then I can wear anything, where can I use you to dictate?"

"To put it mildly, when Master Du was there, the clothes I bought from the colorful cloth workshop were worn every day, and Master Du had said half a sentence? It's good now, you little girl, you have taught me a lesson. ”

"This Du family, it's really anti-heaven!"

The woman's hand was pointed to Shuangxi's nose, Shuangxi's apricot eyes were wide open, without fear, and she twisted her neck to share with her.

"Since you are a descendant of the Du family, what has the Du family done to you? Now that the second master has sent this batch of clothes, what kind of skills are used, and what kind of thoughts does he have, do you really not know? ”

"Miss is kind, she really distributes the clothes to each room, that is her compassion for everyone! Everyone knows that our Du family is one, either giving away the clothes, or turning their heads to press them at the bottom of the box, and they will never wear them in the house. We all know that this is someone else stealing our family skills, although we are current people, and we are not rich in our hands, but we also know that we can straighten our backs and not swallow that bad breath! ”

"It's good for you, not only do you have to wear it, but you also have to drill under the lady's eyelids! From yesterday to today, I have seen eighty or ninety times! You were originally a pulp washing mother-in-law, working in a side hospital, and today you went to grab the work on the stove, and in the name of delivering food, you squeezed to the young lady, what did you think about it? ! ”

The housekeeper was about to speak, when he saw Du Ruonan walking out of the moon gate.

"I heard a commotion outside, what should I do?" The girl smiled, and there was no anger on her face, "It was for this, it was really a harmful person, and it was a bad thing, and it could cause such troubles." ”

Shuangxi saw that it was her, and held back her sore nose and muffled scream, her expression was still angry.

Du Ruonan stood beside Mrs. Cao, turned her face sideways, and looked at the clothes on her body: "The craftsmanship of Master Guo of the Splendid Workshop is really good, and each family got our recipe at the same time, and they all worked hard to ponder it, but if you want to learn the essence of it, you have to push Master Guo." ”

"No wonder you like it very much, Mrs. Cao, you have to wear it day and night, even if I see it, I feel kind, just like my father's craftsmanship when he was alive."

Hearing this, Mrs. Cao was also dumbfounded, and grabbed her clothes a little embarrassed, avoiding Du Ruonan's black and white eyes.

When Du Ruonan saw her appearance, he didn't pursue much: "The clothes are not guilty." It is also painstaking to dye the cloth of each family, and the clothes are made to be worn. Since I have given you my garments, it is not that my eyes cannot bear them. ”

Shuangxi pursed her lips, and Mrs. Cao immediately glanced at her and regained a little of her spirit.

"But Double Happiness is right about one thing. I am a loose man, who neglects to manage the affairs of the house, so that you may follow the old customs in all your things. Then Mrs. Cao, tell me that we pay attention to the rules of the Du house and pay attention to their duties. Just now I asked someone to take a look, saying that your clothes that need to be washed are piled up, but you put down the picks in your hands and don't do it, and you are going to grab work with others, which is a bit inappropriate, right? ”

The woman opened her mouth, as if intent on arguing.

"You are an old man in the house, if you want to tell that you don't know the rules, I'm afraid you are too lazy; If you know in your heart that you want to do it, you are knowingly committing it. ”

"What's more," Du Ruonan stopped and said sharply, "In the past few days, you have been secretly communicating with the feng shui gentleman of the second uncle's family, and you have taken his silver to secretly set up a qi-breaking magic circle in my courtyard, what are your intentions?" ”

There was such a thing, the housekeeper was shocked, and hurriedly handed over to Du Ruonan: "It is the old slave who is derelict in his duties, and this matter will be handed over to me to deal with, our Du family will never tolerate this kind of wicked woman who eats inside and out!" ”

The mother-in-law was led down by the housekeeper, and everyone dispersed immediately, Shuangxi pleaded guilty to Du Ruonan's blessing, and her face was ashamed: "It was me who speculated on Miss Du's mind and acted recklessly." ”

"Silly double happiness, you are for my good, I don't know where I am." Du Ruonan said softly, "I didn't mean to blame you. ”

Double Happiness Smoke Ring Red: "Miss, I'm really angry!" I didn't want to pay attention to it originally, but the mother-in-law wanted to shout in the backyard, saying that Du Erye was generous and benevolent, and remembered them, the old people of Du Zhai; also said that there was a shortage of people in the second master's house, and the old man in the house was removed to prepare for the opening of the dyeing workshop, and the time for the opening of the market was calculated. ”

——Didn't the words just instigate the servants of Du Mansion to defect to Du Liang?

"Miss! I know I shouldn't have said this, but the second master has done so many bad things, so we ......"

"Spare him?" Du Ruonan chuckled and stretched out his hand to cut Shuangxi's hair, "Naturally not." ”

"Am I the kind of person who suffers silently?" She winked at Double Happiness with a sly expression.

"Miss, you?" Double Happiness was slightly confused.

Du Ruonan regained her solemn expression and said to her in detail: "I suspected that this tie-dye leak was also a ghost by the second uncle. He was my father's younger brother, my own uncle, and he always went in and out of the dyeing workshop at will, and everyone did not shy away from him, so he got that recipe. ”

"This is the second time he has leaked his skills to outsiders."

Previously, Du Liang sold her tie-dyeing skills to the colorful cloth workshop, but that time, she had no direct evidence.

"I have asked someone to secretly inquire about it, and at that time, the Colorful Cloth Workshop bought out this recipe from him at a high price. At that time, he promised never to sell twice. However, this time in the Caiyi Festival, in order to bring down the wood dyeing cloth factory, he was really dizzy, and he even sold it to all the cloth factories in Ruan County at the same time. ”

"The second uncle thought he was smart, but he was put together by other cloth shops. The owners disliked this recipe and now had one for everyone, and there was no exclusive value, so they forcibly pressed down the price of the recipe. ”

This matter was later known to the Colorful Cloth Workshop, and the boss was short-tempered that week, where was a good match. He originally rushed to buy out the idea of tie-dye, and sold it from his second uncle at a high price. But because my second uncle had an accident in the middle, he became a big wrongdoer with no money. As soon as he heard that my second uncle was also going to open a dyeing shop, he came to me with the news and handed me the contract he had made with my second uncle. ”

Shuangxi's eyes lit up when she heard this, and her originally gloomy little face lit up, and she clapped her hands and applauded: "Then Miss, let's hurry up and send it over to the patriarch!" Let everyone know what the second master does! ”

"Sell the list of the dyeing house, that's the sinner of our whole clan!"

"Silly girl," Su Zhiyu looked at her with a smile, "aren't you angry now?" ”

"Don't worry, the second uncle is kneeling in the ancestral hall now."

Du Ruonan handed over the contract between Du Liang and the Colorful Cloth Workshop, as well as the evidence of Du Liang's secret transactions with other families, to Ding Bo and delivered them to the patriarch.

Through Ding Bo's mouth, she Du Ruonan was heartbroken by Du Liang and couldn't bear to confront her uncle in court.

As soon as the patriarch heard this, the hand that had been released held by the patriarch grabbed the long whip again, and whipped it fiercely towards Du Liang, who had been kneeling for half a morning.

"You have bullied orphan girls over and over again! Incorrigible! Ignoring blood and family affection! There is an uncle like you in the world! ”

The more the patriarch thought about it, the more angry he became, until he broke the inch-wide cowhide whip before it was over.

Originally, the clan assigned it to Du Liang, and the shop where he bought a dyeing workshop was also directly recovered. Du Liang was also fined half a month's confinement.

That Du Liang had gone to invite the elders of the clan to enjoy his opening banquet, but he didn't go in standing first, and came out lying down, and his whole body was bruised - I heard that when he was carried into the house, the fortune teller who had been invited with a lot of money rushed out happily and said to Du Liang: "I pinch my fingers, today is the auspicious day of the zodiac for your great fortune!" ”

"It's the best time for you today!"

Du Liang held his breath before, barely being knocked out by the patriarch, but now when he heard the words of the kobold master, he immediately fainted.

It can be regarded as a newspaper of the present world.

After dealing with the affairs of the house, Du Ruonan went to the dyeing workshop as usual. In the dyeing workshop, Su Zhiyu is working with the two masters to accept the goods this time.

"Miss, this batik technique is really good. We used tie-dye before, although we can also produce this kind of texture of different shades, but it is not as beautiful as this. A master held the cloth in his hand and couldn't put it down.

Su Zhiyu also smiled: "The quality of this batch is really good, just now the two bosses of Lu Lin have come, and they each ordered a hundred batik fabrics." ”

Du Ruonan was overjoyed, Lu Lin and the two garment stores were considered to be good in the city, and a hundred horses was almost half a month's supply for them, and they made a decision on the spot - it shows their satisfaction and their sincerity in wood dyeing.

"This time, thanks to the second uncle's charcoal in the snow." Su Zhiyu winked at Du Ruonan, and the two of them were relieved and smiled in unison.

In the previous Caiyi Festival, the wood dyeing cloth workshop lost a lot of money and had to pay a huge salary, which can be said to be worse.

Fortunately, Du Liang rushed to buy tie-dye utensils, and "helped" digest the warehouse cloth, so Du Ruonan had the silver money in his hand to supply this batik.

As he was talking, Ding Bo came in because of the patriarch, and there were several small servants behind the two, struggling to carry multiple baskets. Su Zhiyu was also happy when he saw it, it was the tie-dye utensils that Du Liang had bought before.

The patriarch looked at Du Ruonan's pointed chin, and blamed himself on his face: "It's me who can't live with you, your second uncle has troubled you three times and twice, I know that he is calculating your dyeing workshop, and I still believe his words, and I believe his nonsense, I really ...... in my heart."

Du Ruonan hurriedly went to persuade: "You are also for the reputation of our clan, the patriarch takes care of me a lot, I don't know where to go." ”

She spoke many more words, patiently relieving the old man. She knew that the patriarch attached great importance to the harmony within the clan, and proposed that when this batch of batik fabrics was successfully sold, she had extra money in her hand, and she would give Du Liang the money given to her again by Du Liang.

The patriarch was overjoyed when he heard this, and praised her for being broad-minded and well-versed in righteousness, and she was really a rare good woman.

"Ruonan, if you can help in your business, our whole clan will help you!"
