Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Gambling Contract of the Silk Village
How could the eldest lady's elegant broken steps fall Xiao Yao, and she was chased by Xiao Yao's stride meteor not long after walking. "Hehe, why are you going here, I didn't even have time to thank Miss, thank Miss for the lychee money, how about I invite Miss to eat later?" Interesting enough. Seeing that the eldest lady was angry with herself again, she hurriedly said a few nice words to coax her.
"Who wants you to thank you, this is what I said before, Miss Ben is willing to gamble and lose, and I don't need you to thank you." Zhao Rushuang looked a little deflated, and continued to walk forward after speaking. She is also angry in her heart, always thinking of finding a difficult problem to embarrass this thick, shameless, and cheeky guy who doesn't know the sky, so as to repay the revenge of contempt that day.
Rushuang doesn't know where she wants to go now, so she just wanders around the street. Zhao Banshan did not restrict his daughter's freedom like other high-ranking families, and he was not allowed to go out of the gate or step out of the second gate.
"My eldest lady, where are you going? I'm very tired of carrying such a thing, so it's okay to be considerate. After strolling around for a while, Xiao Yao stopped and shouted to the eldest lady. He wasn't really tired, he just wasn't interested in hanging out with her and wasting his time on it.
Hearing Xiao Yao's complaining voice, Rushuang stopped and looked back at him, and sighed depressedly. I couldn't think of anything that could stump him after racking my brains, I thought that the two boxes of lychees just now could stump him, but he solved it lightly, and put the lychees in the store that had not been sold for a day into his hands, and he was actually robbed madly! Let him show off a lot in front of Miss Ben. Thinking of this, I got angry, and there was nothing I could do about him.
"Not far in front is the silk village of the family, let's go, go there and rest." Rushuang was also a little tired of shopping, so she was no longer embarrassed by Xiao Yao, and took him towards the silk village at the corner of the street in front of her.
When I entered the store, it seemed that business was not bad, and the guys in the store were busy taking care of the customers. Some guys who knew the eldest lady hurriedly asked other guys to help take care of the guests, and came forward to greet the eldest lady. led the two of them to the inner hall to sit and served tea, and Xiao Yao naturally followed suit.
"You don't have to wait here, go and greet the guests, we'll just rest by ourselves." Rushuang was also happier when she saw that the business of the shop was booming, and urged the guys to entertain the guests. The guy listened to the eldest lady's words, added some tea to the teacups of the eldest lady and Xiao Yao, and quit to get busy.
"Your business is quite big, and it involves a wide range of industries." Xiao Yao drank some tea and chatted with Rushuang.
Rushuang was angry with him, drinking tea by herself, looking at the buyers coming and going outside, and deliberately ignoring him. Xiao Yao saw that the eldest lady was still fighting with herself, so she smiled wryly, and had no choice but to calm down and stop touching her moldy head. The little girl is quite persistent, it's been a few days, and she hasn't lost her breath. Hehe, smiled bitterly.
After resting for a while, Rushuang stood up and looked around, there were a lot of new clothes hanging on the wall, with a variety of styles and styles, both men and women. Inadvertently, a pure white fox fur trench coat hanging on the west wall attracted Rushuang's attention, so beautiful. When the clothes are hung there, it gives people a sense of nobility and elegance, let alone wearing them on the body, and wearing them on the body will definitely add three points of temperament to the owner.
He praised his clothes in his heart, and then turned his head to look at the others. Looking around the house, I always feel that something is wrong, but what is wrong, I can't figure it out. I was about to turn back to the back room, and I saw the fox fur trench coat hanging on the west wall, oh~ I see.
Rushuang called the guy next to him and asked him his doubts: "It's about to enter summer, why are you putting this winter dress here?" ”
The guy looked at the windbreaker that the eldest lady pointed to, and respectfully replied to the eldest lady, "This fox fur windbreaker was made by the old tailor in the store last year, and after it was put out, many people were interested, but because the cost of the material was too expensive and the price was too high, it has not been able to sell, and it is even more difficult to sell now." And the material of the clothes should not be folded and stored, so it has to be hung here as an ornament. ”
After asking clearly, Rushuang also felt that it was a pity that such a beautiful dress could not be sold. returned to the inner hall and went to ask Xiao Yao to go back to the house, but saw him comfortably holding Erlang's legs, holding a teacup in his hand, and humming a little song. Somehow, seeing him like this, he was inexplicably angry.
Xiao Yao heard the footsteps, opened his eyes, and saw the eldest lady with a bad face, a little helpless. How can I offend you, and be guilty of staring at me like an enemy?
"You're going to enjoy it, hmph" Rushuang stood there looking at Xiao Yao and said coquettishly.
"Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon, I don't have to worry, what's wrong with enjoying life? Hehe" Xiao Yao replied in a chic manner, he is really like his name, and he should be at ease.
It seems that if you quarrel with this person, you will never have the upper hand. Xiao Yao's casual two sentences made Rushuang, who was already angry for no reason, speechless. "Life must be full of joy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon" Rushuang silently recited two sentences, which is a good verse, full of pride and joy.
On the day of the selection of the scholar, Rushuang and her cousin eavesdropped outside the window, and they already had some appreciation for Xiao Yao's talent, thinking that he was a scholar who expected to be a down-and-out scholar or a talented talent, and was forced to enter the Zhao Mansion as a scholar because of life. But the longer the contact time, the more appreciation for him has long been thrown out of the clouds, on the contrary, he is angry to death. From where can I see the appearance of a scholar and a talented scholar from him, but he looks like a scoundrel in the market! A bit of culture and a little bit of a clever scoundrel!
Looking at the eldest lady who stood there silent, was she influenced by herself? Or is it the calm before the storm? Xiao Yao couldn't figure out what the situation was.
"Miss? You don't want to get angry at every turn, it's not good for your skin, and you may have spots and become ugly. In addition, it will also accelerate aging, myocardial hypoxia, liver damage and a series of other symptoms" Xiao Yao was bold and tried to persuade the eldest lady a few words.
Rushuang was savoring the two lines of poetry that Xiao Yao said casually just now, and now when she heard Xiao Yao's words at first glance, her face, which had just eased a little, was clouded again, and she could vaguely see the angry flames burning in the eyes of the eldest lady.
Xiao Yao hurriedly diverted the topic, "I heard you ask the guy what fox fur windbreaker just now, what is the situation?" ”
Rushuang, who was about to go crazy, heard Xiao Yao divert the topic and asked about the fox fur windbreaker, and he had an idea. Hmph, Miss Ben will write down this account for you first, and then settle it with you later, I dare to say that Miss Ben will have spots and become ugly! It just doesn't make sense!
"You! Give you an hour to sell the fox fur trench coat hanging on the wall outside for Miss Ben, or you can settle lunch yourself, anyway, you just got the money, and it's enough for you to eat. Rushuang pointed to the trench coat on the wall outside with her fair and pink index finger, and said to Xiao Yao angrily. Aren't you capable, I'm going to see how you sell it this season.
When Xiao Yao heard this, he stood up and looked at the windbreaker hanging on the wall, and confirmed with the eldest lady, "What does the eldest lady mean is that as long as I can not sell it, treat me to a big meal?" Yes and no? ”
How can you be like a pig, you know how to eat, was you a starving ghost reincarnated in your last life...... Xiao Yao's words made him speechless for a while.
Isn't it just a meal, Miss Ben still doesn't believe it, maybe it's a coincidence that lychees can be sold. After thinking about it, he happily agreed, "Okay, as long as you can sell it within an hour, what if Miss Ben invites you to eat." ”
Xiao Yao smiled in his heart, hehe, he really took the bait, and he could eat a free lunch again. I haven't had a lot of meals since I came here.
"Okay, that's a deal." After saying that, he walked outside.
I asked the man to get a paper and a pen, and scribbled the price on the paper, but he couldn't see it clearly. Take off the trench coat, find a wooden stand, stick the note on the trench coat and hang it on the wooden stand, Xiao Yao walked out with the wooden frame and placed it at the door of the store. Before leaving, he whispered a few words to the fellow.
