Chapter 426: It Turned Out to Be a Poor Ghost
Ni Pozi's heart has already despised Gu Dafu's family, and her face will inevitably be brought out, the respect is gone, only perfunctory is left, she glanced at the rituals she was carrying in her hand, and she couldn't wait to take out the valuable books, white paper, cloth, Huadiao wine and the like.
A poor family is not worthy of such a generous gift from thousands of families.
Chen greeted him with a smile on his face, and said to Wanli Fang: "Brother Fang is here, he is here to come, why do you still bring such a thick gift?" Don't stand, come in and sit. ”
Mrs. Ni was disdainful, and Wan Lifang saw that Gu Dafu's family lived very poorly, and the look on his face was also a little bad, but he was still a little respectful, and said to Chen: "Second aunt, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, Brother Fang sent some small gifts to the family, and I hope that the second aunt will not dislike it." ”
He turned back to the millet who was holding the festival and said to Mrs. Ni: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and give the festival gift to the second aunt." ”
"Yes." Xiaozi handed the festival gift in his hand to Chen, and deliberately pointed to a wine jar and said: "This is Huadiao wine from Fucheng, and my young master specially brought it to my in-laws." ”
"Yo, Huadiao wine, this is a good thing, I have never heard of it in our northwest." Chen smiled and took the basket handed by the millet and looked at the rituals inside, becoming more and more satisfied.
Ni Pozi looked at Chen's appearance staring at the festival, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner: "This Huadiao wine is a good thing only in Jianghuai and Jiangnan, and in poor places such as the northwest and northeast, you can't drink it if you want to." ”
finished, put the congratulatory gift in his hand on the table, and walked behind him.
Chen knew that Mrs. Ni was looking at the dilapidated house at home, and she despised her family, so when she heard this, the corners of her eyes went up, looked at Mrs. Ni, and asked Wan Lifang with a smile: "Brother Fang, who is this eldest sister?" Listen to the tone, aren't you a relative of your family? ”
After hearing this, Mrs. Ni hated the Chen family in her heart, this escape from the famine is really not a good stubble, so asking, isn't it embarrassing her young master.
Ni Pozi took care of Wan Lifang's face, and could only curtsia to Chen: "My aunt misunderstood, the old slave is not a relative of the Wan family, but a domestic slave of the Wan family. ”
Chen smiled: "Yo, it turned out to be just a house slave." ”
A house slave dares to be rude to the master's in-laws, and he is really looking for death.
Chen glanced at Mrs. Ni disdainfully, sat down by herself, pointed to a chair opposite and said to Wanli, "Brother Fang, sit." ”
He said to the lonely hair who was stunned on the side: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up to the new workshop and call your father and uncle back." ”
Lone hair blinked, and after coming back to his senses, he left home slowly and walked towards the new workshop.
"Brother Fa, you go faster, the new workshop is far away from here, when can you call people back if you go like this?" After Chen scolded Gu Fa, he sighed to Wan Lifang: "Our workshop has moved, the new workshop is in the Lu family's mansion, a little far away from our house, if it is still at the end of the village, your father-in-law and second uncle can come back in the blink of an eye, and now you have to wait for a quarter of an hour or two." ”
Wan Lifang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "Second aunt, how many of you bought the Lu family's mansion?" ”
Chen nodded, as if it didn't matter, but said proudly: "Well, I've been buying it for a while, and I moved in at the end of July." The Lu family's mansion is a big place, and our tofu workshop and spice workshop have been moved inside, and it is easier to do work. The old workshop was crowded, and there was no place to put it if the tofu was made more. ”
Wan Lifang was very excited when he heard this, he heard that the Lu family's mansion was built very big, and such a big place could not be bought to live in, but it was used to make a workshop, how rich is this Qin Gu Luotian?
Wan Lifang couldn't sit still, and said to Chen: "Second aunt, since my father-in-law is busy in the workshop, then I can't sit here, why don't I go to the workshop to pick up my father-in-law, what do you think?" ”
Chen's family was a little embarrassed, the fish had passed, and outsiders were not allowed to enter the workshop, but she was angry that the subordinates of the Wan family despised her family, thought about it, and said, "Cheng, you go and pick it up." But just wait at the door, there are many workers in the workshop, and it is not easy for you to enter as a scholar, so as not to be bumped into by those rough people. ”
"Eh, second aunt, don't worry, Brother Fang is waiting for his father-in-law outside the door." Wan Lifang immediately got up and left with the millet with him.
Mrs. Ni came to pick the thorn of the rich family, and when she saw this, she followed her to the new workshop.
Chen crossed his waist, looked at the back of Ni Pozi leaving in a hurry, and snorted: "A minion, what is it?" You dare to look down on my family, and when you see the Lu family's mansion, do you dare to be arrogant? ”
finished, turned around and came to the table, flipping through the rituals brought by Wan Jia.
Gu Yumei has been hiding in her own house, and after learning that Wan Lifang took his subordinates to pick up her father, she came out of the house, and after seeing the gifts sent by the Wan family, she said proudly to Chen: "The Wan family has sent a lot of gifts, and they also gave books and white paper, and they are really scholars." ”
If it is the Yuan family, where can I send books and blank paper, at most I will send a piece of fat to her family.
When Chen saw the Boxing gifts sent by the Wanjia family, he was high-minded at first, but after he was happy, he became worried: "If the Boxing gifts of the Wanjia family are given thickly, our family's Boxing gifts will be returned thickly, but the family is now borrowing money to live, where is the silver to buy generous gifts?" ”
Chen pointed to Gu Yumei's forehead and scolded: "It's all your fault for being a dead girl, letting you do it, and making all the money in the family, eh, the old lady feels pain when she thinks of those money." ”
Gu Yumei didn't care: "If you borrow money, you can borrow money, our family can't afford to pay it back, just pay back the silver when the dividends are distributed at the end of the month." ”
"Ahh After the silver is returned, I will buy you a dowry and a wedding wine, one by one, so I don't need money? ”
Chen looked at Gu Yumei's wealthy appearance and wanted to beat her: "What kind of rich sister are you pretending to be with the old lady?" The dividends of the workshop and the shop are not yours, but my family also has a share. You are pretentious, and the dividends of the old lady's family are gone, but your father is gone, and the dividends for the next three months are all mine, which is considered compensation for my family, and your family will have to live a hard life for a few more months. ”
Gu Dafu felt that his family had dragged down Gu Dagui's family, and after getting the dividends at the end of August, all the dividends in the next three months would be given to Gu Dagui's family, which could be regarded as making up for the previous losses of Gu Dagui's family.
Gu Yumei didn't know about this, and when she heard this, she exploded: "What are you?" My dad wants to give three months of dividends to your family? Why? It's not fair! ”
Chen said angrily: "Phew, how is it unfair? You made it yourself, why do you want my family to be fined with your family? If it weren't for the fear that you would not be able to find your mother-in-law with the reputation of a widowed and eldest daughter, if it weren't for the fact that your sister-in-law was good to me, my mother would have ignored you a long time ago. ”
Chen and Gu Yumei's voices were no, Ni Pozi's man did not follow him to the new workshop to pick up people, but watched the mule cart outside the courtyard gate, and listened to their quarrel.
