Chapter 34: Miserable and miserable
"Looking for and seeking, cold and lonely, miserable and miserable relatives...... the woman looked at the poems in her hand, muttered at this time, but there was a miserable smile on her face, "The owner, don't be too anxious, if the surname Li doesn't come forward again, we will take back the shop according to the contract......" Before the old man finished speaking, he saw the other party turn his head, his face full of despair, "Uncle Leng, do you think that now, if I take back this shop, I will be able to live?" ”
"It's the little child surnamed Li who offended people, how much does it have to do with our Leng family?"
"I took him to the guild at the beginning, and people said so many good things before and after, in the eyes of those people, what is the difference between me and him?"
"However, the proprietor ......," the old man was about to say something, but saw that the other man shook his head, "and now it is too late to say this...... Still blame me for being too stupid, I thought that the general's son could have some ability, but I didn't expect it to be just an embroidered pillow, useless and very ......" The woman's low tone, with self-deprecation, since Li Huai fell out with the Mu family, the Leng family cloth workshop has been isolated in Jiangnan, and the Mu family can be said to have used all means to suppress it, but in just over a month, the Leng family has been on the verge of collapse, and in between, Leng Xuemei frantically looked for Li Huai, wanting the other party to give a solution, but found that Li Huai was like evaporating, Together with the White Mansion, there was no one to be found, and in the end, he could only be like ashes.

"Uncle Leng, let the workers in the cloth mill rest, and you and I will go to the Mu family again in a few days." After Leng Xuemei finished speaking, the whole person seemed to be drained of her spirits, and she lowered her head sluggishly, the old man looked at the woman's expression, knowing that it was unintentional to say anything, so he sighed and turned around and left the study......
In Qingyuan, the old man of the Mu family is looking at the letter from Shangjing, Li Huai used it as a bargaining chip is nothing more than the cloth business of the new army, the old man originally wanted to be a favor, as long as the other party is obedient, he can make the other party make some money in the south, but he didn't expect the young man to be too angry, and he wanted to use it as a bargaining chip to shake the cloth business of the entire Suzhou and Hangzhou, which was too whimsical, and the letter in his hand at this moment was sent from the southern hall in Beijing, and the letter was written by the old man's third brother Mu Jiangsheng.
"What did the third uncle say?" Mu Xiaohai looked concerned, the old man raised his head and looked at the woman beside him, the other party smiled slightly, and handed over the tea, "Qian Lao has already passed on the news, the matter has been completed, and the household department has also confirmed it, and the documents of the imperial court will be sent over in a few days, although it cost a little money, but it is still smooth." ”
"Great! Hahaha, look what else that kid can rely on! Mu Xiaohai clapped his hands and smiled, "Congratulations to Mu Gong, waiting for the paperwork to arrive, that kid from the Li family can only come to the door and beg for mercy, I want to see his face." The woman laughed, but the old man was stubborn, "After all, he is still the son of the General's Mansion, and you don't want to be too happy, if you really force him to be anxious, he is doing it!" ”
"You really know how to watch jokes, this is Suzhou and Hangzhou, not his northwest, if he dares to come hard, we also have people in the Jiangnan Terracotta Division, just take him directly, and the imperial history will be accurate." Of course, the woman knew that what the old man said was nothing more than to let them be prepared, and Mu Xiaohai also smiled, "Father, in that case, should you prepare earlier and let those shopkeepers come over?" ”
"This time our Mu family has spent a lot, the list of the imperial court is already thin, this time give them some fractions, you let a few shopkeepers start to collect silk, once the paperwork comes down, start work immediately, don't delay the construction period......" The old man commanded, but in a few days, the news that the Mu family had obtained the imperial court order spread throughout Suzhou and Hangzhou.
In the courtyard of Baifu, Zhu Hu squatted in a corner of the courtyard with tea, watching the young man play a set of slow boxing techniques, "Dongjia, your Tai Chi is too child's play, just these few times, three-year-old dolls can practice." ”
The young man couldn't help frowning, but he ignored him, and continued to dance slowly and rhythmically, "Zhu Hu, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, my master said at the beginning, Gongzi's set of boxing methods is secretly in line with the yin and yang of heaven and earth, and there are rules and regulations between movement and stillness. Yue'er looked at Zhu Hu angrily while eating the candied fruit.
"Call me Thirteen!" Zhu Hu just wanted to have a seizure, but when he saw Yue'er's momentum, he squatted down again, and at this moment, Yang Zhi hurriedly came in outside the courtyard and made a silent cleanup towards a few people, "The people of the Leng family are here again, this time it looks like they are menacing!" ”
Several people suddenly quieted down, and then they all looked at Li Huai again, for more than a month, several people were hiding outside, and now they just came back, they were blocked in the door, and they really couldn't say anything, "I said the owner, why don't you talk to others, what is this?!" "Zhu Hu really doesn't like the feeling now, as if he is afraid of the other party.
"More mouths!" Yue'er stretched out her hand and twisted his ears, like an angry little daughter-in-law, Li Huai shook her head helplessly, and continued to play Tai Chi, "Wait, wait for a letter from Beijing in a few days." ”
"Bang! Boom! Boom! There was a heavy knocking sound at the gate of the courtyard, Leng Xuemei will come every day in the past few days, the Mu family has already started to move, she is naturally anxious, if it is really according to the original contract with Li Huai, she can naturally take back the cloth workshop, but if you think about it carefully, the result may not be much better than now, and in her heart, there is still some hope, so she will block the door of Baifu every day.
Ying Hongsleeve and Dong Xiaowan also came out of the house, and the two naturally sympathized with Leng Xuemei, but Li Huai deliberately hid, and they didn't have much to say, "Didn't you say that the Mu family had already taken the order?" You just let her in and say it's okay? Dong Xiaowan said with some pleading, Ying Hongsleeves pulled her to Li Huai's side, "The cloth shop has also stopped, and the business has also been disturbed for you, I heard that her son-in-law is now running to Baihualou every day, this woman is miserable enough, and something may happen if it goes on like this." Ying Hongsleeve's tone was reproachful, Li Huai simply closed his eyes, the two women saw him like this, and they lost their temper, and just wanted to turn around, but they heard a woman's cry at the door.
"Uh......h Woo ...... "After more than a month of suffering, the woman finally collapsed, crying louder and louder, and everyone in the room was looking at Li Huai at the moment, and the young man let out a sigh of relief and walked towards the door......
