Chapter 571: Working Together

"Can you two get busy?" Uncle Zhao asked with a frown.

"Absolutely, I still have Qiao'er." Gu Mingzhu said with a smile, with calm on her delicate cheeks.

Hearing this, Uncle Zhao nodded, and seriously instructed Yanzi to take good care of Gu Mingzhu before turning around and leaving.

Seeing Gu Mingzhu and Yanzi busy in a large pile of fish, Qiao'er said worriedly: "Miss, you should rest or let the slave come." ”

was decisively rejected by Gu Mingzhu, "You order to clean up, and the rest is me and Yanzi." ”

At this time, Qiao'er nodded in response.

Gu Mingzhu and Yanzi worked together to put more than a dozen big fish into a large basin, and the two glanced at each other, with bright smiles on each other's faces.

"Zhu'er has worked hard for you, hurry up and sit down and drink some tea." Yanzi hurriedly brought tea and sent it to Gu Mingzhu's eyes.

"Miss Ben is really a little tired." Gu Mingzhu teased herself, took the tea and took a sip.

Then she raised her eyebrows and looked at the big fish in the basin, her eyes lit up and said: "It rained all night last night, and there must be many people catching fish this morning, and we must be selling fish before others." ”

"Is this so sold?" Swallow looked surprised.

"Didn't you ever sell tofu?" Gu Mingzhu joked with a smile, and then said with a relieved expression, "Selling fish is the same as selling tofu." ”

Hearing this, Yanzi's face changed slightly, her little face became crimson, and she said hesitantly, "I don't dare to shout yet." ”

She's thin-skinned.

But Gu Mingzhu has never seen anything in the world, she put down the teacup in her hand, and walked out with broken steps, she thought about it.

She is the general's wife, standing on the street shouting and selling fish, which is a bit of a joke, so Gu Mingzhu thought of a way.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiao'er and whispered, "You go and get a plank." ”

"Yes, Miss." Qiao'er nodded inexplicably and brought over a wooden plank.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu took a paintbrush and wrote a few big characters on it, placing them in front of the big fish, and then she sounded the gong and drum.

Immediately, the front of the tofu shop attracted countless onlookers.

There are also acquaintances who often come to buy tofu, looking at the big and fat fish in the basin in front of the door, and joked with a smile: "Yanzi, are you not going to buy tofu and sell fish instead?"

"Look at what you said, Auntie, we also sell tofu, and you can all take a look at the fresh fish that my father just caught today." Swallow quipped enthusiastically.

When everyone heard the swallow speak, it was very beautiful, and they couldn't help but gather around.

"How do you sell this fish?" Someone has already started asking for a price.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu stepped forward and negotiated with someone: "This fish sells two big fish and gives one small fish." ”

"I can't eat two big fish, can you give me a cheaper one if I buy one?" The eldest lady waved her hand and said.

"Auntie, this fish is so fatty, you can buy two and go back to cook and eat, fry and eat, and you can also make fish head soup, in short, you won't suffer a loss if you buy two." Gu Mingzhu smiled and bargained.

The eldest lady looked hesitant, staring at the big fish in the basin shrewdly, and with the more and more people around her who wanted to buy fish, she nodded decisively and said: "Pick two of the biggest and fattest fish for me to wrap." ”

"Okay." Gu Mingzhu said enthusiastically, and immediately picked two big and fat fish and hit them in the grass frame.

The eldest lady happily paid a piece of silver, turned around and left.

"Zhu'er, you are so good, you are almost selling out of fish in the pot so quickly." Yanzi praised Gu Mingzhu.

"You're not bad either." Gu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and looked at Yanzi, hooked her lips and smiled.

The two looked at each other, and each other's eyes were full of smiles.

When Uncle Zhao came back, there were not many big fish left in the basin.

"You're selling so fast, I'm about to lose sight." Uncle Zhao gasped and said.

"Dad, the one who sells the most fish this time is Zhu'er, and you must make a few good dishes to entertain Zhu'er at noon." The swallow smiled and praised Gu Mingzhu.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu looked modest, pouted and said, "I want to eat the chopped pepper fish head made by Uncle Zhao, I haven't eaten it for a long time." ”

"Isn't there any fish in the General's Mansion?" Uncle Zhao had a playful look on his simple face.

"I'm tired of the food in the general's mansion, and I want to eat the chopped pepper fish head made by Uncle Zhao." Gu Mingzhu looked forward to it and said coquettishly.

Hearing this, Uncle Zhao smiled, picked up the largest fathead fish, and said with a smile: "Wait for me to make you chop pepper fish head." ”

"Hmm." Gu Mingzhu nodded, and together with Yanzi, he put the few fish into a bucket.

After finishing their work, Gu Mingzhu and Yanzi sat together and drank tea.

Gu Mingzhu took out the silver he got from selling the fish and put it on the table, "Yanzi, count how much silver we have earned in total?" ”

Putting down the water glass, the swallow buried her head in the silver count, and she smiled and said, "A total of five taels of silver plus twenty pieces of money." ”

"Put the money away." Gu Mingzhu nodded, and joked with a smile, "This silver is what you have saved yourself, and you can use it when you are with Chunsheng at that time." ”

"Pearl, what nonsense are you talking about?" Yan Zi glanced at Gu Mingzhu coquettishly, and said shyly.

Seeing this, Gu Mingzhu smiled knowingly and said, "We are good sisters, I know what you think in your heart." ”

"......" Yanzi clutched the silver, her eyes were dead and gray, and she sighed and said, "It is impossible for me and Chunsheng to be impossible. ”

As she spoke, she put the silver away and put it in her purse.

"Are you angry with Chunsheng?" Looking at the swallow's sigh, Gu Mingzhu asked in surprise.

And Yanzi shook his head and said, "Chunsheng will have to take the exam in the capital in a while, how can I be worthy of being a master?" ”

When she said this, she looked lonely.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu's expression was faint, and she comforted: "Don't worry, Chunsheng will not be such a heartless person." ”

"I know that Chunsheng has always treated me well, but Chunsheng's mother has never treated me well." Swallow said in a low voice, her tone revealing infinite pain.

couldn't bear to look at Yanzi sadly, a complicated look flashed in Gu Mingzhu's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Don't be very sad Yanzi, with me, I won't let you be separated from Chunsheng." ”

The swallow took it as a joke.

Just as the two were sitting and chatting together, a figure walked in outside the store.

"Swallow." Chunsheng stood cramped outside the door and shouted towards the store.

When he heard the sound, he saw Chunsheng standing outside the door in a simple robe, staring at the swallow with dark eyes.

Suddenly, Yanzi's face turned red, and she stood up and walked towards Chunsheng, "Brother Chunsheng, why are you here?" ”

"I just wanted to come and see you." With a chuckle on his stiff features, Haru Sheng whispered.
