Chapter 717: Winter Clothes

Chu Huan glanced over there, smiled dumbly, and pulled a curtain over there, but of course Chu Huan knew what was behind it, he came back from Xiliang, but he returned with a full load, in addition to the gifts given by the nobles and officials of Xiliang at the time of the wedding, and the property obtained in Puzhao Temple, he returned to Yunshan directly from Tongzhou on the way, but the thing was for the wolf baby and others to bring back to the capital, and then these things were placed here.

The white blind man pointed at this, and Chu Huan remembered that in this room, there were countless treasures, and it was no wonder that the white blind man did not dare to sleep with his eyes closed, and put such a large number of treasures in this room, and the white blind man slept next to him, so he had to sleep with his eyes open anyway.

Chu Huan smiled dumbly and said, "Are you still afraid that someone will steal it?" ”

The white blind man smiled bitterly and said, "If you put these things here, you are missing one thing, and that is also my dereliction of duty." ”

"Hahaha......!" Chu Huan laughed and said, "Brother Bai, if it were me, I would probably be guarding my own ......!" ”

The white blind man's expression suddenly became solemn, and he said: "My lord, since I follow you, you regard my white blind man as a brother and trust me, although the white blind man is from the market, but he also knows a righteous word." The white blind man likes money, but we want silver, and we take it in a proper way, and if the adult trusts the white blind man, he will lose his life, and I can't stand the adult. ”

Chu Huan listened to his sincere words, knowing that although this guy was born as a ruffian, he was indeed a righteous person, so he reached out and patted the white blind man's arm, and said, "Brother Bai, I lost my words, don't blame me!" ”

The white blind man smiled heartily, then frowned, and said in a low voice: "My lord, these things have been placed here, after all, it is not a way, is it better to find a more appropriate place to store them." ”

Chu Huan leaned back in the chair and groaned slightly, and after a long time, he finally said, "You take care of your injuries, I'll think about this matter." ”

Chu Huan left the white blind man and went straight to the study, and before he sat down, he heard Su Niang's voice outside the door, "Erlang, are you here?" ”

Seeing Su Niang come back, Chu Huan was relieved, and when he agreed, he saw Su Niang come in gracefully, at first glance, Chu Huan felt a little weird, and always felt that something was wrong, but he saw Su Niang coming over with a smile and said, "Are you hungry?" I've sent someone to prepare the meal, and it's ...... soon! ”

Chu Huan nodded, he didn't want to stare at Su Niang, he felt a little weird at the previous glance, and he didn't see it clearly, he felt that Su Niang was standing beside him, and he couldn't help but turn his head to take a look, under the lights, he found that Su Niang had a pretty face, and he didn't find much on weekdays, but at this moment, he found that Su Niang's appearance was also very delicate, and he didn't dare to look more, so he refocused his eyes on the book and asked, "I came back late today and went to a lot of places?" ”

Su Niang happily sat down on the chair next to her and said, "Yes, Mrs. Xue is really familiar with the capital, she took me to many places, went to Taoist temples, and went to several restaurants to eat, but I ...... died!" ”

Chu Huan listened to her voice with joy, and he must have been very happy to go shopping today, and said with a smile: "Since you like it, you will go out more in the future, and it is not good to stay in the house all day." Finally, I couldn't help but turn my head and look at Su Niang again, under the light, Su Niang was like a flower, this time I looked at the past, and finally knew where it was weird, but it was Su Niang who made a new bun.

Su Niang's bun was very ordinary before, but now it is obviously a new bun, although I don't know the name of this bun, but it is quite gorgeous, under the background of this bun, Su Niang seems to be a lot more extravagant, and her face is even more delicate, I can't help but say: "This ...... Is this your new bun? ”

Su Niang was still worried that Chu Huan would not find out, and when she saw Chu Huan asking, she immediately smiled and asked, "Yes, Erlang, did you say it looks good?" She was obviously very satisfied with her hairstyle, and she actually raised her hand and gently straightened it, and her face was full of smiles and delicate faces.

Chu Huan knows that in front of women, don't say the word "no" easily, even if Su Niang's bun is not good-looking, Chu Huan is not easy to say the word "no", not to mention that in his heart, although Su Niang's hairstyle looks very uncomfortable for a while, it is indeed very suitable for Su Niang, which makes Su Niang's delicate beauty double instantly.

"Beautiful." Chu Huan could only answer honestly, but he couldn't help but think that if Su Niang kept combing her hair like this in the future, it would be a great beauty in the mansion.

Su Niang heard Chu Huan say this, her eyebrows smiled, and her heart was very happy, when she went out today, what really took her time was to make such a bun, and at this time she heard Chu Huan praise, although it was only the word "good-looking", it had already made Su Niang's heart bloom.

The two didn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward, Su Niang saw that Chu Huan was still looking at herself, her face was hot, and she lowered her head, Chu Huan saw Su Niang lower her head, and she was suddenly a little embarrassed, so at this time, she heard Sun Zikong's voice outside: "Master, madam, Mr. Du said that he has something to discuss with you!" ”

Chu Huan let out an "oh", and he didn't know what Du Fugong wanted to do, but he thought that this Du Fugong was really a big shelf, and he had something to do with himself, but he still let people pass the word.

He knew that the guy had a strange temperament, and since he asked him to take care of the accounts, the old guy shrank in the yard alone, and he didn't see people all day long, and he didn't communicate with others, even for meals, and for people to send them to his yard.

Chu Huan heard that people with strange temperaments have some skills, but I don't know if this Mr. Du really has the ability?

The two came to Du Fugong's yard, which was very quiet, there was a lone lamp lit in the house, and when they heard the sound of footsteps, Du Fugong came out of the house and arched his hand to Chu Huan and the others, smiling inhibitibly.

After Chu Huan sat down, he smiled and said, "Mr. looking for me?" ”

Du Fugong nodded and said, "The main thing is to discuss something with my wife, I heard that the adult is also in the house, so please come over." ”

Chu Huan smiled and motioned for Du Fugong to sit down and speak, Du Fugong was really unkind, sat down opposite Chu Huan, turned to Su Niang, and said, "Madam, Du has summed it up, it's about to be winter, I wonder if Madam is ready to prepare winter clothes for the people in the house?" ”

Su Niang was stunned, a little at a loss, and looked at Chu Huan, Chu Huan just smiled and nodded, snorted at Du Fugong, and motioned Su Niang to get involved with Du Fu.

Su Niang sat down and asked cautiously, "Du ...... Mr. Du, what are you talking about winter clothes? ”

"Winters in the capital will be very cold." Du Fugong said solemnly: "It's already late autumn, and the clothes on the people can make do, but in winter, this clothes are difficult to hold, so Du wants to ask Mrs., is Mrs. going to prepare warm winter clothes for the people in the house?" ”

Su Niang thought about it for a while, and finally said, "If you need it, you will naturally prepare it." ”

Du Fugong stroked his beard and said, "Naturally, it is needed." Madam, I calculated, up and down the house, excluding the adults and Mrs., including Du, a total of 22 people, if one person buys two sets of winter clothes, it is forty-four sets of clothes, according to the price of the capital, to wear comfortable and warm, a set of clothes is about two taels of silver, that is, nearly a hundred taels of silver. ”

Su Niang was stunned and opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything.

Chu Huan saw it in his eyes, knowing that Su Niang was distressed about the silver, her heart was funny, and she didn't speak, waiting for Su Niang to deal with this matter, and there will be many affairs in the house to take care of in the future.

Seeing that Su Niang didn't speak, Du Fugong couldn't help but ask, "Madam, what do you mean?" ”

Su Niang said after a while: "I want to ...... Want two taels of silver? That...... What kind of garment is that? ”

She used to live in Liujia Village, and after a year, it was only a few taels of silver, but at this time, she was a little surprised to hear that a set of winter clothes would cost two taels of silver.

Du Fu said fairly: "If it is an ordinary winter coat, maybe one or two pieces of silver is enough, but the adults are also high-ranking officials of the imperial court, and the treatment of the subordinates in the house is always better than that of ordinary people. ”

Chu Huan stretched out a finger and scratched his cheeks, thinking to himself that a high-ranking official of the imperial court is a high-ranking official of the imperial court, why should a "good one" be added in front of him, this old prince has a strange temper, although he works as an accountkeeper in the mansion, he doesn't seem to have much awe of his master.

Su Niang's heart hurts, but since Du Fugong proposed to buy winter clothes for the people of the house, it is not easy for her to refuse, and she also understands that the weather is gradually getting colder, and the people of the house do not have winter clothes, and they really want to enter the winter, but it is difficult to resist only the current clothes, and this winter clothes are always on duty, but when I think of a winter coat that costs two taels of silver, I am still a little reluctant in my heart, and I hesitated for a while, and finally asked: "Mr. Du, what is it...... That ...... per person Is it possible to have one set per person? ”

But she thought in her heart, if a set of clothes is two taels of silver, if it is one set per person, it will save forty or fifty taels of silver, and forty or fifty taels of silver is a huge amount of money for Su Niang.

Du Fugong's face was expressionless, and he said, "If Madam thinks so, then only buy one set for each person...... It's just a winter, there is no change of clothes, there must be some dust, if the adults have guests, look at the people in the adult's mansion are sloppy, I am afraid that the reputation of the adults will be affected. ”

Su Niang saved the silver, but also for Chu Huan, at this time, hearing Du Fugong claim that if the silver was saved, it might have an impact on Chu Huan's reputation, he suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly asked, "Really...... Will it really affect Jiro...... No, yes, will it affect the reputation of the master? ”

Du Fugong glanced at Chu Huan and said, "Du Mou thinks like this, what is it, I don't know, if no one in the house comes to visit, it shouldn't have any impact." ”

Chu Huan smiled secretly, this old guy was understated, but he was obviously fighting for the interests of the people under his house.

On weekdays, this old guy shrinks in the yard like a ghost, and he doesn't deal with other people, everyone in the house only knows that there is an account room, and even several people have never seen what this account room looks like, Du Fugong can say that he has no friendship with anyone in the house, but at this time, this old guy suddenly stood up to fight for the treatment of his subordinates, but Chu Huanxin had a great impression of this old guy, it seems that this person is just a person, but his heart is still a little chivalrous.

However, seeing that he was willing to endure humiliation for the sake of his best friend Ouyang Zhi, and even collected the corpse for the Ouyang family at the cost of being convicted, his chivalrous heart is indeed not lacking.

Su Niang pondered for a moment, glanced at Chu Huan, thought about it again, seemed to be fighting for distance in her heart, and finally said to Chu Huan: "Second ...... Master, just buy two sets of winter clothes per person, do you say? ”

Chu Huan smiled, nodded and said, "It's up to you to decide." In addition to winter clothes, each person buys two pairs of cotton shoes, in addition, send someone to buy a batch of dry charcoal, in winter, the house is also cold, turn back everyone has some charcoal, after the winter, the sleeping place is born charcoal, so that everyone can spend a warm winter. ”

Du Fugong suddenly showed a look of surprise, and Su Niang was also surprised: "You still want to ...... Do you want to buy cotton shoes and charcoal? ”

Chu Huan smiled: "It's warm on your body, how can you not let it warm up on your feet?" Looking at Du Fugong's slightly surprised face, he smiled and said, "Mr. Du, don't you agree?" ”

Du Fugong came back to his senses, stroked his beard and said: "The adults have said so, how can Du disagree?" ”

Su Niang knew that it must cost some silver, and her heart was really a little reluctant, but since Chu Huan spoke, she naturally would not object, but speaking of which, this is also for the sake of the next person, Su Niang was born in the poor, and she is very familiar with the situation of the poor, thinking that although she spent a lot of silver, she can make everyone warm and spend a winter, although Su Niang's heart is reluctant, she also feels that it is not worth it, if she spends a lot of silver just to buy a banquet, then she will object.

Chu Huan smiled and asked Su Niang, "Su Niang, what do you say?" ”

Su Niang nodded hurriedly, and Chu Huan asked, "Mr. Du, are there other things?" ”

Du Fugong shook his head and said, "It's nothing else." Since the Lord and Mrs. had settled down on this matter, they turned around and asked Mrs. to send a silver tael to purchase these things. ”

Chu Huan sighed and said, "Mr. Du called me over, just for these things, Mr. Du is fine, but I have something!" ”

Du Fugong was stunned, and he didn't understand the meaning of Chu Huan's words for a while.

Chu Huan pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Mr. Du, there are more than 20 people in the house, not too much, my monthly salary is actually not much, I rely on the salary to support a large family, after all, it is still a little ......difficult!" ”

Du Fugong frowned, not understanding why Chu Huan had been so generous before, but why he suddenly seemed to cry out again.

Chu Huan saw Du Fugong's expression and said with a smile, "Mr. Du, don't misunderstand. Chu came to the capital not long ago, and he was born poor, so he couldn't compare to those who were rich and noble. They all have some industries underneath, which is enough to support their ......! After a pause, he finally asked, "Actually, I want to ask Mr., can we also do some business?" ”

Chu Huan remembered that in ancient times, it was divided into four classes, such as Shinong and industry, although this Great Qin Dynasty was not any dynasty in his memory, but he thought that there was a difference between respect and inferiority, and he was now a household servant, and he was also the respect of the earl, but he didn't know if he could run some stores in the capital with his own identity.

Du Fugong instantly understood what Chu Huan meant, and frowned: "How many stores do you want to operate in the capital?" ”

Chu Huan nodded and smiled: "That's right, in this way, if you earn money, the life of the people in the house will be much better." ”
