Chapter 175: Cheers to Friendship
She tiptoed, patted Ah Niu's shoulder, and said solemnly, "Brother Ah Niu, if we make it, we will be the earliest building materials supplier in this land!" It will be famous for eternity, and our name will be on the history books! ”
Brother Niu was stunned by these words, and he was a little frightened with excitement.
History?
Can he be a little plasterer and be famous for all the ages?
Tang Yourou saw that his expression was a little wrong, and found that this big pie was too big, so he quickly pulled back to reality: "But there is still a long way to go before that, and there will be many failures." ”
"I'm not afraid." Ah Niu raised his chest and raised his head, "I also failed many times when I was with Mud, but I still studied it." I'm the only one in the village who knows how to build a mud house! ”
Tang and Rou nodded, clarifying their current plan.
To make cement, you need a furnace like that in a blacksmith's shop, which can withstand high temperatures and can be mixed. The bricks are not in a hurry, there are many people in the village who can make clay pots, and it is not too late to find them when the time comes. If the cement is not made, the clay bricks will not be sold.
She took out three taels of silver from her sleeve: "Brother Niu, this is a month's salary, so I won't do the work in the county first." In the future, you will come to my house for dinner. ”
"How can this work? Rou girl, I can't take your money! You little girl, how can you have so much money?! Is it all earned in the city? ”
Tang Yourou nodded and confessed: "Something happened in the city, I can't go to the county seat for the time being, this is all my belongings, Brother Niu, you must succeed." Also, we can't talk about our business, we must keep it secret, and if someone says it, you say you're building a mud house for me. Otherwise, I am afraid that this business will be robbed! ”
Ah Niu nodded and solemnly agreed: "Okay, I'll go home and dig stones!" ”
As long as the calcination heat of this cement is enough and the formula is right, it should not be difficult to do, and it is only a matter of time before it is done.
The cement finally came to an end, which solved her big problem.
Tang Yourou touched the scarf in his arms, and rode towards the fat aunt's house.
There was one thing she had been holding in her heart for a long time.
When the family was separated before, the excuse she used was that she was favored by the evil young man, and her marriage to the evil young man would delay the reputation of the scholar of the champion, and it would become a stain on his career in the future.
But if someone is suspicious of this argument and goes to the neighboring village to find the evil young man to verify, this matter will be exposed.
The reputation of the village is very important, and if this matter is not settled, even if she has a letter of renunciation in her hand, the public opinion of the villagers will still turn against her.
Before the divorce, the interval was too close at this time, and it was easy to be suspicious, but now it is just right.
She had to go to the fat aunt and ask the courtesans in the village to tell her everywhere, saying that she had earned money in the county seat, and that she had paid back the bride price, and that she would no longer marry that evil girl.
In this way, it can be regarded as a successful retirement.
"Fat aunt!"
Tang and Rou shouted first, and then dismounted outside the fat aunt's yard, tied the horse to the fence, hid the scarf behind him, and walked into the yard with a smile.
The fat aunt was alone in the yard eating roasted peanuts.
It's really weird, why didn't she look for a concubine today?
"What's wrong?" The fat aunt heard her shout, chewed on the peanut, and glanced up at her.
Tang Yourou felt that her expression was a little strange, but she didn't pay much attention to it, walked up to her, and asked with a smile: "Fat aunt, guess what, what am I holding in my hand now?" ”
"Necklace." The fat aunt snorted lightly, took a peanut from the plate with her fat fingers, put it in her mouth, then leaned over and said, "Your sister made it, and said she wanted to give it to me." She squinted her up and down as she spoke.
From the tone of voice to the body language, it is not very friendly.
"Yes......" Tang Yourou was puzzled, "What's wrong with you, fat aunt?" What's bothering? ”
"Annoyance? Hmph, no. "Fat aunt chirped and ate peanuts and sniffed.
Tang Yourou hurriedly said with concern: "Is the fat aunt infected with the wind cold?" Don't sit in the courtyard, go back to the house. It's late autumn and it's cold. Oh, this is specially made by the young lady, and her embroidery is good. ”
"Thank you." The fat aunt took the scarf, stuffed it into her clothes, and drove her, "It's done?" You can go, huh. ”
Tang and Rou completely felt it at this time.
The fat aunt seems to be in a mood with her for some reason she doesn't know.
Why?
Tang Yourou continued to redeem: "Fat aunt, did I make you angry somewhere?" I've been busy in the county these days, so I didn't mean not to come to see you. ”
"No, you can go, come to my yard next time it's okay." The fat aunt clapped her hands, removed the salt from her hands, and turned around and walked back to the room.
"Fat aunt......" Tang Yourou called out incomprehensibly, chasing a few steps.
"Let's go! Now that you have money, you even have a horse on board, and what are you doing in my yard? I used to take care of you because you three were helpless, but now you are not, you are capable. One moment it was tangerine peel, another moment it was wolf killing, and this moment even the horse was ridden. Heh......" The fat aunt waved her hand, turned her head and frowned, with a lot of resentment on her face, and glanced at the horse outside the door between words.
Ah......h
Tang and Rou realized.
Probably got on the horse himself, which made the fat aunt jealous.
I thought it was three poor children, but I didn't expect people to build a house and buy a horse, and the houses were better than her family. The fat aunt's family was just a few donkeys, and she actually bought a horse.
But she really spent a lot of money, and she bought it in order to escape the arrest of the fast catch, and now she doesn't have much savings.
If you explain it to the fat aunt like this, you should be able to save your friendship, but if the thing she is wanted is exposed, and there is a wanted warrant in the county, what if the villagers finally send her to the county seat to exchange for reward?
After some struggle, Tang and Rouyu left the fat aunt's house.
The fat aunt stood behind the door, opened a crack in the door and watched the little girl leave the house dejectedly, feeling a little uncomfortable.
This kid can find a way to make money, which shows that she is smart, why should she be like this?
But when Tang and Rou got on the horse, she was sour again.
This little girl, so smart, even riding a horse, so good at making money, used to pretend to be weak in front of her......
Hum!
It's so angry!
The fat aunt closed the door in a huff.
Don and Rou rode home.
The craftsmen were still building the house, and Tang and Rou were not even in the mood to greet them at the moment.
"Big sister, can I ride a horse?"
Dou'er ran over and stood beside Se'er, but he didn't dare to touch it.
"No, it's tired now." Tang and Rou fed Se'er grass and tied the horse to the stable.
Dou'er left dejectedly: "Then I'll go find Uncle Akin." ”
"Sister, I have something to ......" The young lady put down the work in her hand and walked out of the house, wanting to say to Tang and Rou what she hadn't finished before.
Tang Yourou interrupted her: "Young lady, I'm tired, let's talk about it later." ”
Tang and Rou waved their hands, entered the house, and closed the door.
Tang Youniang: "............"
