Chapter 186: Uninvited Guest
Boss Du looked at Du Lan in surprise: "Leave it all to me?" ”
"Of course, I can trust Uncle to do things, and besides, I really don't understand this." Duran smiled slightly.
Mrs. Du took the teacup after eating and echoed on the side: "You are his uncle, you can't make her money." ”
The old man Gu on the side also smiled and echoed: "This matter is suitable for her uncle, and she is not at ease when it is handed over to others, hehe......"
Boss Du smiled embarrassedly, "Then I'll be disrespectful, but, Lan Lan, how many corn stalks are you going to buy?" ”
"Well, then, you will say in the village that I will take no more than ten sheaves per household. If you don't charge more, the uncle will be fair in terms of price, so as not to let the villagers suffer. ”
She did this because the people in the village had kept the corn stalks in the fields for generations to manure, and if the villagers coveted her price and sold her all the corn stalks, she would blame her for a bad harvest the next year, so she had to make sure that nothing went wrong.
Whoever has less than ten bundles of corn stalks in a few acres of land does not matter.
The people in the room all looked at Du Lan with admiration, and Boss Du clapped his palms happily: "This kid's brain is aura, this method is good." ”
Several people chatted together for a while, and Boss Du remembered the matter of Fat Aunt and Aunt Wang, so he said: "Lan Lan, you let Fat Aunt and Aunt Wang work for a few days, and finally gave them a lot of reunion cakes, they should not have complaints against you, you are always a child who does things without revealing anything, Uncle really admires." ”
Duran smiled politely: "Uncle, don't praise me, it's good if I don't offend people." ”
The fat aunt also talked to Xu Cui'e behind her back to sell the house to Xu Cui'e, if this matter really came to pass, she wouldn't even be able to get out of the house.
Then things will be difficult.
But she didn't take it to heart, through this incident, let her see clearly who is the grass on the wall and who is really good with her, for those who are not profitable, she is benevolent enough to do business.
"People who achieve great things often use methods, this is called giving a slap and then a sweet date, Lan Lan is very smart." Old man Gu jokingly praised Du Lan, Gu Youan married Du Lan, a virtuous helper, even if he returns to the court in the future, it will become a big help for him.
Outside the door, Du Mi and Du Liang walked in together, and Du Mi first cared about Du Lan's hand: "Cousin, are your hands better?" ”
His eyes fell on Du Lan's bandaged hand, Zhao had already helped her with medicine before, Du Lan chuckled and shook his head, Du Mi was more relieved.
Du Liang's eyes glanced at Du Lan from time to time, and Du Lan noticed it and gave him a look: Let's go out and talk alone.
Du Liang received Du Lan's gaze, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he got up to make an excuse for the elders and went out.
Then Duran also found a reason, explained it to the elders, and went out.
Du Liang and Du Lan came to the big tree in the yard with their front and back feet, and Du Lan stared at Du Liang with his eyes: "If you have anything to say, you have to give my sister a look." ”
Du Liang glanced into the house and saw that his family members were all in the house, so he was relieved, but he opened his mouth and still didn't ask.
Duran looked at him like a big girl, and laughed, "Forget it, let's talk about it, do you want to ask about Miss Bai?" ”
Du Liang's face suddenly turned red like a burning cloud, and his expression became cramped and uneasy.
"Look at your appearance, aren't you just a girl? It's like you've never seen a girl when you're so old. Du Lan saw through Du Conscience at once.
Du Liang was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about what to say, and after a long time, he raised his head and looked directly at Du Lan: "Sister, Miss Bai, is she going to Shengjing?" ”
"How do you know?" Duran was surprised.
"I heard it from your conversation."
"Ryoko, my sister has something to tell you." Duran looked stern.
"What?" Du Liang was a little nervous, he knew that his sister was dedicated to his good, but some feelings were very strange, maybe this was love at first sight.
"Some things are predestined, and there is nothing you and I can do to change them. Miss Bai's background is destined to make it impossible for her to control her marriage. Your initial affection for her will slowly be diluted by time. Love over time is more reliable than love at first sight. My sister wants to persuade you not to do stupid things that mistake your life at first sight, you are still a hairy boy, and when you mature, you will understand what love is. ”
"Mistake at first sight ......for life," Du Liang muttered to himself, and only after a moment did he say in a lonely tone: "I know, I just have a good impression of you." ”
"Yes, it's just a good feeling, not only you, but even people who are so picky as my sister making friends are willing to associate with Miss Bai, so she is worth making friends, but she is only a friend."
The light in Du Liang's eyes flickered a few times, maybe it was just as his sister said.
At this point, Du Lan didn't want to hit Du Liang too much, the so-called time is a good medicine for heart disease, and when Du Liang grows up, he will definitely feel funny when he looks back at his current self.
"Okay, don't be melancholy, it's better to help my sister do more work when you have that time, you see the mess in this yard, go and help me move the soybeans to the house, and the reunion cakes to the house."
"Yes."
As soon as Du Liang responded, the door was suddenly pushed open from outside the door with a bang, Du Lan and Du Liang were stunned, and hurriedly looked out of the door, only to see a woman in her forties breaking in.
Duran squinted his eyes to look at this person, only to see that she was wearing a dark blue narrow-sleeved skirt, with several silver hairpins on her head, her rough face was still coated with powder, a thick layer of paste, and two white marks were washed out by sweat on both sides of her cheeks. The two black eyebrows are lying on either side of the head like caterpillars. The eyelids are loose in an inverted triangle shape, covering half of the eye sockets.
The mouth is painted like blood, and the overall makeup looks unaesthetically pleasing, but it makes people feel uncomfortable.
After carefully looking at the woman, Du Lan felt a little familiar, this woman looked a little similar to Xu Cui'e, and now she came in with a familiar car, she must have something to do with Xu Cui'e.
"Hey, did you come to my house to look like this ghost and scare me?" Duran thought that she had come to vent her anger for Xu Cui'e, so her words were a little unkind.
The woman was stunned, fixed her eyes, and suddenly opened her eyes wide, looking at her memory, it was not this door that she walked last time.
Since Gu Chunyan married into a wealthy family, she has also been stimulated, and has kept begging the matchmaker to find a wealthy family for her daughter.
Now I came to find Xu Cui'e, first, to tell Xu Cui'e the news of marrying her daughter, and secondly, I wanted to trust Gu Chunyan's relationship and buy some drinks from Xu's house, which was precisely on my mind, so I didn't use my brain when I entered the door, and I came in with my feet.
It turned out that I entered the wrong door, and my sister's door was here before, but now I look at the new door, and I think my sister has repaired the door by relying on her daughter's financial resources.
She was about to turn around and withdraw, but when she thought of Du Lan's sneer at herself just now, she immediately stopped, intending to return the words, she looked at Du Lan intently: "Yo, you are my sister's nephew and daughter-in-law?" He doesn't look good. ”
As he spoke, he walked towards his home with steady steps. walked to the soybean grate drying beside Du Liang, and looked at these long-haired soybeans with disgust, "Tsk, it's so poor, the soybeans are moldy and I don't want to throw them, I would have thrown them in the ditch a long time ago." ”
Du Liang was afraid that he would be knocked over the soybean shelf like last time, so he hurriedly dodged in front of the shelf, stretched out his arm and was full of vigilance.
"Cut! Look at your nervousness, the old lady is not uncommon with these broken beans. So saying, the woman went around the courtyard for half a while, and suddenly saw a steaming reunion cake that had just come out of the oven on the cutting board, grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth.
Duran looked at her coldly, and slowly moved his gaze to the silver hairpin on her head, "It's okay, eat when you're hungry, and we'll talk about the price when you're full." ”
"What price to talk about, it's all your own people, what's wrong with eating the reunion cake between the two of you." The woman's mouth was full, and she slurred as she grabbed another one and stuffed it into her mouth: "It tastes good." ”
"There is no such thing as a free lunch, and it is even more impossible for me. One, two......" Duran counted easily.
The woman was not happy at this time, and thrust her hands into her waist: "Don't you know who I am?" Count what, it's really the six relatives don't recognize. ”
"Yes, I don't recognize my six relatives, I only recognize my three relatives." Duran curled the corners of his lips in disdain.
"Three parents?" The woman wrung her brows, and her mouth slowed down.
"My mother's family, my husband's family, and my relatives and friends who are good to me. Everything else is bullshit! Duran spoke rudely, specifically to the woman in front of him.
The woman's face was red, and Du Lan turned around and scolded Xu Cui'e to scold her. Gu Youan respectfully called his aunt every time he saw him.
"Gu Youan, call him out." The woman glanced at Duran with contempt.
