Chapter 343: The Xie Family's Life
Xie Wei received the order as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and immediately slipped out of Xie Mansion and arrived at a market he was familiar with. Which one has the best quality garlic? He thought for a moment, then turned around and entered a store called Li Kee Groceries.
Lao Li Tou is a bad man, but his son Xiao Shi Li is a clever man. As soon as he saw someone coming, he immediately greeted him with a smile and went forward to greet him, "Brother Xie Wei, you are here, if you need to call a little guy to come to the store to say hello, let's just send you to the house, how can you run such a trip yourself." ”
Li Wei didn't listen to his nonsense, and asked directly, "Xiao Shi Li, I heard that you recently got a batch of fresh garlic here, right?" ”
"Yo, Brother Xie Da, you're really well-informed. No, the goods that just arrived before, this batch of garlic came from Qilu, and Qilu's garlic is notoriously good. There are 2,000 catties, which is the last batch of goods before the Chinese New Year. Xiao Shili said as he opened the opening of a sack and motioned for him to come and see.
Xie Wei only glanced at it and asked, "Is it all white-skinned garlic?" Is there any purple garlic? "The little lady said that purple garlic has a stronger flavor than white garlic, and the medicinal effect is better. He didn't care how good Lao Li Tou was to blow this white-skinned garlic, he had to buy purple-skinned garlic.
"Yes, yes." Xiao Shi Li led him to another small room, where sacks of goods were piled up.
"That's all." Xiao Shi Li smiled and pointed to more than a dozen sacks of goods, his expression was quite proud, he was the largest garlic merchant in the whole capital, and there were more than 1,000 catties of purple garlic in these dozen sacks. You must know that this garlic is just a seasoning, and he also dares to take so much because he has a lot of customers, and he dares to say that Xie Wei can't find anything better than him anywhere else.
"Brother Xie Wei, your Xie Mansion has recognized the little lady back, and it feels much more lively than before." Xiao Shili said while untying his mouth, "Especially in the past two days, I see that your mansion has been carrying things to the mansion these days. ”
"That's right, the people in the house are full of energy now." Xie Wei put down a sack of purple-clothed garlic as he spoke, and then squatted down and took a few garlic to check.
Coincidentally, Xiao Shili's daughter-in-law came in to see if there was anything she could do to help, and as soon as she came in, she saw the garlic scattered and piled up on the ground, and her face stiffened slightly.
Xiao Shi Li knew what kind of virtue his daughter-in-law had, so he hurriedly stepped forward and pushed her out, "I'll just come here, you go to the house and watch the child." "His daughter-in-law, if she says it is good, she cherishes things too much, and if she says it is bad, she is stingy. What is there in this garlic head when it falls to the ground, and it is something that can't be broken, and it will take a little effort to clean it up in a while, besides, Xie Fu has always been generous in buying things, isn't it cost-effective to spend some effort to deal with the relationship?
Xie Wei was completely indifferent to the interaction between his husband and wife, and concentrated on dealing with the garlic in his hand.
Xiao Shi Li turned a blind eye to the garlic that was falling in a mess, and stepped forward to greet him enthusiastically, "Brother Xie Wei, I'll come, I'll come, how can such a thing trouble you." What kind of do you want, you tell me, and my little brother will choose a good one for you. ”
"Let's go, you go." Xie Wei didn't appreciate it, this is something that Miss Xiao named and wanted, how can she fake someone else's hands?
Xie Wei was serious, not polite, Xiao Shili didn't dare to move, watching him carefully put aside the garlic he had picked up.
Xiao Shi Li looked at it for a while, and finally saw that the name was coming, "Brother Xie Wei, you want one-headed garlic, right?" I'll help you, pick this one and I'll do it. ”
"Hmm." Squatting a little tired, Xie Wei didn't object to Xiao Li's help.
After turning over nearly ten sacks of purple-skinned garlic, Xie Wei put a small pile of one-headed garlic at the base of his feet.
Xiao Shi Li secretly slapped his waist, "Brother Xie Wei, did your little lady say how much one-headed garlic you need?" ”
Xie Wei looked at him, what are you asking for? Do you want to go to his little lady to show his merits?
Xiao Shi Li stroked his forehead, and rolled his eyes in his heart, this is because he is afraid that he will compete for favor, he is not from Xie Mansion, what kind of favor is he competing with him!
"Brother Xie Wei, the younger brother thinks so, this is also a manual work to find one-headed garlic, if it is much worse, the younger brother will find a few more people, and everyone will find it together, and it won't take long for you to successfully complete the task, what do you think?"
Xie Wei didn't reply, but stared at the pile of one-headed garlic and thought to himself, the little lady said that it takes about five catties, this small pile, about seven or eight catties, right?
"Enough, I'll take it back first, if it's not enough, I'll pick it again, your batch of garlic, if you see a single head of garlic, keep it for me first."
"Save it, Brother Xie Wei." Xiao Shi Li also breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Mansion, partial house
On a cold day, the two little guys were chatting around a bamboo fire cage, and Xie Tong was locked up in the side room, which was guarded by the two of them.
"The study was brightly lit again last night." The house is not soundproof, these words are all passed in, as soon as Xie Tong listens to the study, he knows that the next words must be about the old master and the little lady, so he hurriedly up his ears to listen.
"The old master and the little lady haven't slept all night, and the old master's body doesn't know if he can stand it."
"I can't stand it and can't help it, the little lady will enter the palace the day after tomorrow, and I don't know what kind of difficulties and dangers are waiting for her."
"Yes, those people won't let go of the opportunity to attack the little lady."
"Little Miss's medical skills are so good, and she is a good person, why are those people holding on to her."
"Who's to blame?"
Xie Tongquan heard these words, and after listening to them, he couldn't help but shout twice, and then hit his head against the wall, and after a while, the skin on his forehead broke, and the wound was full of blood.
Every day is torture for him now.
Xie Tong's movement caught the attention of the two people outside the door, and they took a look, then retreated back to their original places, and continued to guard.
"Steward Ming is here, you go and report the situation, I'm guarding here." Seeing Xie Ming coming from the Moon Gate, the little brother guarding the door urged his little friend to report to him.
"How's he doing?" Xie Ming asked naturally.
"We said those words as you told us, Xie Tong kept banging his head against the wall inside, I guess he felt uncomfortable."
Of course it's uncomfortable, these words are all explained by the head of Xie Li to tell him, and every word is poking his heart, can it not be uncomfortable? But who called him such a bastard before, it would be good if he didn't apologize with death, what is this uncomfortable? "I know, watch him well, and leave him alone as long as his life is not in danger."
November 19, Hajj
Today she is going to enter the palace to face St. Shane'en, and the old man Xie followed him to the court, and by the way, he made her identity clear, and reported to the emperor that he wanted to establish her as the young master of the Xie family. In fact, the matter of establishing a young master is an internal matter of the Xie family, and there is no need to report it to Emperor Wucheng at all, he did this to increase the weight of Ge Rumo and show her status in the Xie family.
So Xie Fu was busy early in the morning.
