Chapter 106: It's really cheap~
The shopkeeper is sleek on the surface, but he is very arrogant inside, especially in the woman he looks down on and thinks is completely controlled. The only thing he was worried about was Mei Niang's ridiculous motherly love and causing trouble for himself.
But over the years, he has also deeply understood how stupid and cowardly the woman in front of him is in her bones. Seeing Mei Niang like this, he was already sure that she had been scared by himself and would not do anything.
As for Huihui, who had never dared to raise his head, he didn't pay attention to it at all. He began to relax, and then he urged from above.
"Hurry up, don't make people wait."
Mei Niang looked at the rouge that was boiling and hesitated a little, and said timidly.
"But... This rouge is not good, what should I do? ”
The shopkeeper reprimanded impatiently, "Just put out the fire and come back." Hurry up and clean up, if the master gets angry then, see how I clean you up. ”
"Okay... I know..."It's not good to give up Rouge halfway and do it again, although I feel a little sorry for Rouge, but Mei Niang is still more afraid of the shopkeeper. Listening to the shopkeeper's tone was very bad, and then recalling the pain when he was beaten before. She was so frightened that she hurriedly pulled her daughter back to change her clothes.
Although the shopkeeper punches and kicks Mei Niang at every turn, she is asked to do any dirty work. But the shopkeeper wants to save face, so Mei Niang and Huihui still have a few good clothes, but they are only a few, just for guests.
In fact, the shopkeeper is not short of money, don't look at the business in the store is so bad, but this is also the shopkeeper's intention. He deliberately didn't take good care of the store, so that no one wanted to come. He then took the rest of the rouge he made every month and sold it privately to the dealers. Before, the Zhao Mansion was not short of money, and no one took care of it carefully.
The shopkeeper not only asked the house for raw materials, but even often said that the store lost money and asked the house to make up for it. And Mei Niang's rouge is really good, and the shopkeeper can sell it for a lot of money every time.
I don't have to give out anything, empty gloves white wolf, net money has been earned for so many years. Up to now, the money in the hands of the shopkeeper can not only redeem himself, but even buy land and buy a shop for the local owner.
As for why he didn't redeem himself, who would think that there was a lot of silver. And leaning on the big tree to enjoy the shade, backed by the Zhao family, it is convenient to do anything.
That is, the identity of this slave, not being able to take the imperial examination is a little unsatisfactory. But his son Liu Taobo is not a student of reading, so the shopkeeper is not in a hurry to study, and wants to wait for his daughter-in-law to give birth to a grandson before making plans.
And the cost of studying is also a lot, and the shopkeeper wants to save more money before that.
It's just that the plan is not as fast as the change, who would have thought that the owner would change the family? Originally, the shopkeeper felt that the main family had changed from the Zhao Mansion to an ordinary peasant girl, and she couldn't get oil and water, and she couldn't pull the tiger skin of the main family as a banner, which was too unbeautiful.
But seeing that the new master's family is so powerful, it doesn't look like an ordinary person. Not only was he unhappy, but he became more and more depressed. Not only are the origins of these two unknown, but they are definitely not easy to fool, the shopkeeper frowned tightly.
Before, he wanted to see if the new owner's house was flooded. If you don't have it, wait until you make something out of the raw materials in your hand and sell them, and then ask someone to help your family redeem yourself.
But now, the shopkeeper wants to give up the large amount of raw materials and flees directly. But he was still a little worried about what to do if he didn't let himself go.
didn't wait for the shopkeeper to come up with a way, Mei Niang had already come out with her daughter. The shopkeeper looked at Huihui first, and when he saw that the other party looked more and more well-shaped because he was wearing good clothes, the shopkeeper's eyes darkened.
The face also showed lewdness. Laugh, before he could say something lewd and suggestive. At this time, he suddenly saw Mei Niang next to him, and her eyes were red.
The shopkeeper's expression immediately became very ugly, and he didn't care about Huihui, so he reprimanded Mei Niang directly.
"Do you want to die! What are these moths doing, their eyes are red like that, what do they think about what the lord has seen! ”
Mei Niang was scolded and trembled with fright, looking at the shopkeeper's cruel eyes, thinking of what she was about to face, her eyes turned red uncontrollably.
Mei Niang secretly raised her eyes to look at her daughter, and was even more sad when she saw her daughter lowering her head and not caring about herself. Is my daughter blaming herself? There's nothing you can do about it?
If... Ask the new master's family for help, and if it fails, the shopkeeper will definitely kill himself. When the time comes, without her own protection, her daughter will be even more miserable. Why doesn't my daughter understand herself? Mei Niang's tears fell again.
“!!! … Hurry up and go first, the main family should be in a hurry. Seeing that Mei Niang actually cried again, the shopkeeper was even more angry in his heart. I can't wait to kill this slut now, but thinking of the two people waiting in front of me, I can only suppress my anger.
But he thought viciously in his heart, when the two were gone, he would see that he would not kill this slut who could only cry and cry.
Huihui lowered her head and followed behind the two of them, seeing the expressions of the two people. She can also roughly guess the thoughts in the hearts of these two people. Thinking of the conversation when she had just changed her clothes, Huihui sneered even more in her heart.
……
"Huihui, it's so beautiful to wear this, much more beautiful than when my mother was young." Mei Niang saw her daughter change her clothes and sighed a little. But as soon as she thought of it, she was very sad.
Mei Niang gently touched Huihui's young and beautiful face, with tears in her eyes. "It's better to be ugly, it's useless to be a mother, and I can't protect you. My poor Huihui, why are you so miserable! ”
Huihui saw Mei Niang like this, and suddenly felt a little tired. The corners of her mouth curled slightly, and her voice was calm. "Mother, do you love me?"
"Love... Mother's favorite, no, my mother only loves you alone in this world. Mei Niang nodded fiercely and hugged Huihui, and said with a little choked up.
"That mother, can you save me. I'll go to the front in a while, and you can help me beg the new master's family and let him save me, okay?! Huihui was held in Mei Niang's arms, and her dark eyes looked directly at Mei Niang.
“…… I'm sorry... Hui Hui... "Mother" Huihui obviously felt that Mei Niang's body immediately became stiff after listening to her words. She struggled for a long time before she squeezed out a sorry.
From the moment she said she was sorry, Huihui understood her answer. didn't want to listen anymore, she withdrew from Mei Niang's arms with an expressionless face.
"Huihui? … I'm sorry, it's all bad for my mother, it's useless for my mother. But... But when they're gone, that guy will beat me to death... Hui Hui, you too..."
Mei Niang was still explaining something, but Huihui didn't speak anymore or look at her.
Thinking of Mei Niang's aggrieved look, Huihui felt very disgusted. kept saying that he cared about himself and loved himself, but he was easily given up by that person as soon as he was scared, this so-called care and love is really cheap~
