Chapter 11: The Slap of the Seven Weapons
Wu Zhi nodded in agreement. The shopkeeper ran into the inner hall, still wondering in his heart, although the jade of the owner was not sold, it seemed that it was going to be sent to a relative in the capital. However, this is the first time that the fierce god of Wuda has entered our store, so if you don't entertain the hardships you are afraid of, I guess the owner will not blame me for making my own decisions.
Waiting for the horse shopkeeper to carefully open the bag of very tight yellow brocade box, Wu Zhi and Xiao Jinlian are bright in front of their eyes, they see a piece of blue-white jade wall at the inner end of the brocade box, the front is carved with a phoenix that spreads its wings and flies, and is lined with entwined branches of peony, the back is flat and grinding, the inner and outer edges are each patterned for a week, the carving is exquisite, and the style is gorgeous.
Wu Zhi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good jade, there are a lot of good things in this shop," the shopkeeper sank, and said that it wouldn't be self-defeating, and he wouldn't want to add any protection money or something. Next, "For your sake, you don't have to pay next month's money." The shopkeeper's heart was suddenly relieved, and he said happily: "Thank you, big official!" The heart said that he had finally done the right thing.
"Sister Jin Lian." There was a slightly surprised voice next to it. Wu Zhi and Xiao Jinlian couldn't help but look back, and there was a little girl dressed as a maid standing at the door, and she looked cute. Xiao Jinlian pounced happily, shouting, "Sister Jin'er! The two hugged each other, crying and laughing so intimately. Wu Zhi was dizzy for a while, and looked at the shopkeeper inexplicably, and the shopkeeper saw the inquiry in Wu Zhi's eyes. Shaking his head with a wry smile, he said in his heart What do you think I do about your own wife.
It took a long time for Xiao Jinlian to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, pulled the little girl named Jin'er in front of Wu Zhi, and said, "Look at me, I am dizzy with joy, come and meet your brother-in-law." β
Jin'er was blessed and called out obediently: "Brother-in-law." Wu Zhi also returned the salute, and looked at Jin Lian again, Jin Lian smiled embarrassedly: "This is my former sister Jin'er, who used to be the maid of the Hu family." Wu Zhi remembered that according to the novel, Jin Lian used to be the maid of a large family, and because she refused to be a concubine, she was forced to marry Wu Da by that big family, which seems to be true.
Jin'er looked at the two of them suspiciously, then looked at the store, and asked, "Is Sister Jin Lian here to buy jewelry?" Jin Lian nodded with a smile and said, "Jin'er, didn't you go to the field with your wife and them to do business half a year ago?" I thought I'd never see you again in this life? Wu Zhi heard a chill, it seems that these words should be the words of lovers.
Jin'er said: "Alas, the master's business has been lost, and there is no way to come back a few days ago." Subconsciously covered his mouth, looked around, and whispered: "Madame doesn't tell me to say it, sister-in-law, don't say it." Wu Zhi and Jin Lian couldn't help but laugh when they saw her cute little appearance.
Jin'er carefully looked at the clothes of the two at this time, and said in surprise: "Sister Jinlian, have you made a fortune?" Look at my sister and brother-in-law's clothes are so beautiful. β
Jin Lian was a little proud again, and said with a smile: "What kind of fortune, your brother-in-law made some money in a small business." This doesn't bring my sister to learn from the rich and noble, and buy a few small pieces of jewelry to fill the faΓ§ade. She said humbly, Jin'er also nodded and believed it, after all, they were not there during this period of Wu Zhi's fortune, who would believe that the former three-inch Ding would make a fortune? At most, it's just a little money to buy some low-grade jewelry. However, Jin'er is still happy for Jin Lian from the bottom of her heart, looking at Sister Jin Lian's happy face, life must be good, as long as you live happily, what does it matter if you are rich or not?
"Yo, isn't this a golden lotus? It's getting prettier, isn't it? A strange word came from the door, I don't know when, came in the door a full of beads, thick fat and thick fat The three of them talked about speculation, but they didn't even pay attention to when she came.
Jin'er sighed, hurriedly ran over, called "madam" in fear, and stood behind the woman and did not dare to move again. Wu Zhi despised in his heart, this fat man is Mrs. Hu who Jin Lian used to serve, damn, it is really tyrannical to ask my cute little Jin Lian to serve such a pig.
Although Jin Lian has left the Hu family, after all, she has been in the Hu family for many years, and she still has the awe of Mrs. Hu in her heart, and she also went over to greet her: "Jin Lian has seen Mrs. He turned back to Wu Zhi and gave him a look, but Wu Zhi walked over helplessly and hugged his fists, but did not speak.
Mrs. Hu didn't treat Jin Lian badly before, but since Hu Dahu took a fancy to Jin Lian and forcibly married Jin Lian to Wu Da in a fit of anger, Hu Dahu has been even more respectful of her, making her blame all her resentment on Jin Lian, and I don't know how many times she scolded the fox spirit behind her back. He became more and more harsh on his maids. Hu Dahu's business failed and returned to Yanggu in a gloomy manner, but she was a person who wanted to save face, and ordered her subordinates not to say anything. Originally, the weather was good today, so I took a few people out to go shopping, and asked Jin'er to go to the jewelry store first to inform her, and said that Mrs. Hu was coming, and told them to be careful. In fact, Mrs. Hu didn't have such a face-saving attitude before, but people are like this, the more undesirable they are, the more afraid they are that others will look down on them.
Who knew that after she entered the jewelry store, she found that Jin'er was chattering with the fox spirit she hated the most, and her wife came in for a long time, and no one answered, and her heart was on fire, and her heart said that she was really a loser, and my Hu family was not defeated, so I was so worried about my words.
Looking at the gorgeous Jin Lian, there was a burst of disgust in his heart, he snorted coldly, ignored them, and went straight to the horse shopkeeper, his eyes lit up, but he saw the white jade hollow phoenix wearing flowers that had not been confiscated on the counter, walked over and picked it up, and praised in his mouth: "Yes, yes, the horse shopkeeper, how much is this jade pendant?" β
The shopkeeper also recognized her, which was also a big customer in the past, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry Mrs. Hu, someone wants this jade, why don't you take a look at something else, the small store has recently entered a lot of new jewelry." β
Wu Zhi looked at the woman's hateful face, and then looked at Jin Lian, who was slightly embarrassed next to him, although he was annoyed and didn't want to see the woman in general, he still couldn't see it, so he said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper Ma, wrap up the things, and I'll ask someone to send you money when I turn around." β
The shopkeeper sighed, smiled at Mrs. Hu, and said, "Madam, look at ......" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pick up the jade pendant.
Mrs. Hu was stunned for a moment when she heard the words of the two, and then suddenly laughed, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, and the thick fat powder fell from her face with her laughter, and she said while laughing: "Shopkeeper Ma, do you mean that Wuda bought this piece of jade?" Are you old and confused? Does he still have the money to send it back to you? Oh, don't laugh at me. "The shopkeeper is so angry, he is getting older, and I heard that the owner has the meaning of changing to a younger shopkeeper, so he hates others to say that he is old, which is also known to the guys in the store. Hearing Mrs. Hu say to her face that he was old and confused, her anger rose, and she snatched the jade pendant from Mrs. Hu's hand, and said angrily: "I'm just old and confused, what's wrong." Regardless of Mrs. Hu's abrupt laughter and frozen expression. Turning his head to the guy next to him who wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, he shouted, "Why don't you help the martial arts officials wrap it up?" What are you doing in a daze? β
Mrs. Hu's face turned blue and white for a while, and when she turned her face and saw the sarcastic smile on Wu Zhi's face, she immediately sprinkled the fire on Wu Zhi's head, and scolded Wu Zhi with her head and face: "A thief!" What are you laughing at? Are you laughing too, old lady? If it weren't for the old lady marrying you a vixen, what would you still be a bachelor for? ......" scolded Wu Zhi for a moment, and when he heard her call Jin Lian a fox spirit, his face immediately sank, and Jin Lian, who had been watching his face from the side, hurriedly grabbed him and said in his ear: "Xianggong, forget it, forget it for Jin Lian's sake." β
The shopkeeper next to him was all stunned when Mrs. Hu started scolding, and the shopkeeper also beat a drum in his heart, shouting in his heart Mrs. Hu, you don't want my life, you just came back from the field, how do you know the current majesty of Wuda, and it will be difficult to protect my store if he starts to do it after a while.
Not to mention that the shopkeeper here felt a blow in his heart, and he didn't say that Wu Zhi's face gradually eased under Jin Lian's soft words, but he said that the maid Yulan, who had been silent behind Jin Lian, suddenly walked over and slapped a heavy palm on Mrs. Hu's fat face that was splashing saliva, and there was a crisp sound of "pop", and there was silence all around, and even Wu Zhi's eyes were slightly stunned when he looked at Yulan. Yulan said coldly: "Insulting my lord and wife, this is a lesson for you." β
Mrs. Hu was stunned by the beating, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, and she shouted: "I fought with you." She was about to pounce on Yulan, but the subordinates behind her hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her, and she shouted there: "You sluts, don't you beat her for me, and see your wife being bullied?" While persuading, Jin'er winked at Jin Lian and Wu Zhi, signaling them to leave quickly. And the shopkeeper also ran up and grabbed the Hu family who wanted to do it, just kidding, if you don't hold them, will you wait for Wu Da to make a biao?
Just when the two sides were in a mess, a middle-aged man in Chinese clothes hurriedly walked in from outside, shouting as he walked: "Madam, what's wrong with Madame?" β
When Mrs. Hu saw him, she seemed to have a backbone all of a sudden, and she threw herself into the man's arms and cried bitterly, the man was already thin, and it was indescribably funny to hold the fat Mrs. Hu, and the man's face was also very embarrassed.
The shopkeeper couldn't help but laugh, leaned over and said, "Hu Yuanwai, this is a misunderstanding, just make peace." β
Mrs. Hu, who was crying bitterly, raised her head and shouted, "What misunderstanding? Horse shopkeeper, you old fool, get out of the way, official, you have to make the decision for me, our family has suffered a big loss today......" said and stuffed the big fat head into the man's arms and cried.
The shopkeeper scolded in his heart, if Lao Tzu wasn't worried about the damage to the store, he would care about your life and death. The two of you think that Wuda is still the same as before, and Lao Tzu said that peace is for your good. No matter what, no matter what, you don't care if you find bad luck by yourself. He scolded in his heart and retreated.
Hu Dahu, who was holding his wife, couldn't figure out the situation, so he wanted to ask someone to ask what was going on, raised his head, and his eyes lit up suddenly, and an extremely beautiful female figure entered his eyes.
