Chapter 192: Xu Chen's return

Just now, the big guy was still looking for him in a panic, but now he is standing at the gate gracefully, what is the matter?

It's really a lazy person who has a lot of and urine, and it is precisely because he is lazy that he escaped this catastrophe.

When Aunt Li San saw Li San standing there safe and sound, she immediately cried with joy, got up and ran to Li San with a smoke, and hugged Li San: "Oh my God, it scared me to death, fortunately you're fine, woo woo woo ......"

Xu Cui'e was so frightened just now, thinking that someone had died in her house, who knew that Li San, this kid, actually went home to eat, and she was beaten by Aunt Li San, she was not easy to bully, and now it was time for her to turn around and take revenge.

Xu Cui'e had a hideous face, and pounced on Aunt Li, grabbing her hair: "Call you wronged, ask you to make me carry the black pot, see if I don't die!" ”

Aunt Li San was not to be outdone, and immediately scuffled with Xu Cui'e, Li San didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull the fight, but unexpectedly, the two women were extremely red-eyed and pushed Li San away.

This Li San is usually not a vegetarian, but now he is pushed down by the girls, he stands up and comes forward to teach women, he is very smart, he seems to be fighting and persuading, but in fact, he specializes in dealing with Xu Cui'e, the man is so powerful that Xu Cui'e's arm is about to dislocate, and he screams in pain.

"The head of the house, the two of them are bullying your mother-in-law, what are you still standing and watching!"

With this shout, Gu Zhiping quickly joined the team, and the four of them quickly scuffled.

The people next to him earned Gu Zhiping's salary, so naturally they couldn't sit idly by, and stepped forward to pull them away. The people are separated, but the mouth is still constantly scolding.

Duran smiled contemptuously, turned around and pulled Zhao Shi: "Mother, let's go home." ”

What is there to see about dog-eat-dog.

"Lan Lan, look at what you did." Zhao's eyes were full of distress, they were kind enough to save people, but they provoked muddy water.

"My daughter was careless, so she let the woman take advantage of the loophole, I will be careful in the future." Duran glanced at the hem of his shirt in disgust.

After a day, the neighbors began to be busy again, but there were a lot fewer people listening to the movement, through the collapse of the mud wall, everyone saw Xu Cui'e's face clearly, some people stayed for wages, and Aunt Li and her family never appeared in front of Xu Cui'e again.

The days passed, and in the past two days, Du Liang and Du Er bought a lot of ducks from the outside village, and Du Lan kept the ducks in captivity, and when the stall of Wuwei Zhai was ready, he began to sell roast ducks.

On this day, a carriage suddenly came to the door, and Xu Hening and Chen Jingting jumped down from the carriage one after another.

"Duran, I'm back!" Chen Jingting began to shout from the moment he entered the door.

When Du Lan heard the voice, he hurriedly ran out of the house: "Brother Xu, Chen Jingting, have you come back from Shengjing?" How's it going? ”

"Chen Jingting, this kid is so bent on remembering you, he doesn't even enjoy the blessings of the eldest young master." Xu Hening quipped.

Chen Jingting smiled and said: "Yes, my mouth was raised by you, the cook at home cooked unpalatable, I escaped directly from home, by the way, I brought you good things back." ”

"Good stuff?" Du Lan listened to Chen Jingting's ass with a happy face, and when he heard the word gift, he couldn't help but be curious to look into the carriage, Shengjing is a brilliant person, what is it?

"It's salt." Xu Hening was equally excited.

"Salt?" Du Lan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly opened the sedan curtain and looked inside, there were several jars inside, "You have a lot of skills, and you have brought so much salt." ”

In ancient times, the sale of salt was strictly in accordance with the household registration to implement the "counting of salt sales", even if the vendors came to count, each person could not exceed ten catties.

A jar in this carriage is enough for twenty pounds, right? Such a large amount, how did they do it.

Du Lan was afraid of attracting attention, so he hurriedly asked Xu Hening to move the carriage to his home.

Xu Hening saw Du Lan's nervous appearance for the first time, and immediately curled his lips and smiled: "It took a lot of thought and energy to get these things into his hands, and for these things, he moved around a lot." ”

"You have a heart, this time I will treat you to a big dinner." Duran spoke from the bottom of his heart, he didn't hear who he was referring to, and thought that Xu Hening was talking about Chen Jingting, after all, in Shengjing, Chen Jingting's connections were quite extensive.

"Duran, why don't you ask who he is?" Chen Jingting said strangely.

"Isn't that you?"

"These are not his ideas, how can he be so careful." Xu Hening said again.

"Huh? So whose idea was it? Duran was surprised.

"Who else but the person who has you in mind."

"You'an? No wonder, Chen Jingting can think of me rare these things, it turns out to be him. Duran's heart was like honey, sweet, it could be seen that Gu You'an was outside, but he was thinking about himself.

Chen Jingting scratched his head embarrassedly, "The world dares to get so much salt on the road, there is no power in the court, who dares, I don't have that much ability." ”

Xu Hening brought the carriage in and brought down the salt jars in the carriage one by one.

Old Man Gu heard the movement and came out of the house, Xu Hening and Chen Jingting hurriedly straightened their postures, clasped their fists and bowed to Old Man Gu: "Old man, I haven't seen you for many days!" ”

When Old Man Gu saw that it was them, he was immediately stunned: "You guys came back from outside?" Look at these days, why have you lost weight? Come in and sit. ”

"Yes, just like your own home, hurry up and go into the house to rest." Duran urged enthusiastically.

Duran was originally polite, but Chen Jingting took it seriously, and said with a hippie smile: "Yes, I just treat this as my home." Coming back from this road can choke me with bumps enough, and I will stay tonight, and you will have to eat and drink well to serve me. ”

Chen Jingting only said to himself, he didn't notice that Old Man Gu's face had changed, Xu Hening hurriedly poked him an elbow: "Nonsense!" ”

"Bah, bah, look at my mouth, I mean Duran, you just let me eat and drink well, as for serving, I don't dare to work."

Knowing that he likes to joke, Duran smiled and said, "I really serve you, and you have to have the courage to bear it." ”

"Huh? No, don't dare! Chen Jingting's eyes rolled, it was impossible for Duran to serve people, and there were many ways to torture people.

After a while, Zhao rushed over, glanced at the jar on the ground, and knew that someone from the family had come, so he hurriedly entered the house with a smile on his face, and saw that it was Xu Hening and Chen Jingting, and was immediately taken aback.

"Master Xu, Master Chen, why are you here?"

Chen Jingting joked: "Aunt Zhao is not welcome to our brother, why do you have such an expression." ”

Zhao said with a smile: "Where, I will give you a good lunch today, you have come all the way, I must entertain you well." ”

Since the estrangement with Mrs. Du was eliminated, Zhao's whole person has become much more cheerful, and perhaps her temperament has been suppressed by Mrs. Du.

Duran echoed: "Mother, I'll help you later." ”

"Okay, now you can catch up with the old days."

Du Lan stared at Xu Hening: "Has Brother Hening taken care of Shengjing's business?" ”

"Shengjing's business is taken care of by the shopkeeper, I just went to check the accounts, by the way, I was playing in the mountains and rivers, and by the way, I helped you promote the cooking wine business in Shengjing's restaurant, and you will know the result in a few days."

Duran curled his lips and smiled: "Brother Xu, I am really grateful for remembering to help me run my business when I go out." ”

"It's all incidental, and the one who runs the drink is dealing with the restaurant." Xu Hening refused to take credit, and smiled politely.

Old Man Gu was anxious about his grandson, so he asked, "Jingting, do you have any contact with you?" ”

Naturally, there is a connection, otherwise how can I help Du Lan get salt back, but Chen Jingting knows that Old Man Gu has something to say, and in front of people, he can't say something casually.

"After contacting him, he asked me to take care of Mrs. Gu and Grandpa."

"Hmm." The old man nodded faintly.

Duran comforted: "Grandpa, he just sent a letter to his family during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it's only been a few days, and you're worried about him again." ”

Xu Hening was present, and he didn't want to hear anything important from others, so he changed the topic: "Duran, I see that the soybeans in your yard are gone, have you started brewing soy sauce?" ”

"Yes, the soybeans are soaked in salt water, but the salt water needs to be poured in twice, and the salt at home is used up.

"Then your thanks to Youan." Chen Jingting said.

In fact, Gu Youan couldn't imagine that Duran needed to use the right amount of salt to make soy sauce, he only knew that the lady was in the seasoning business, and she would definitely use salt, and the amount would not be less.

As a businessman, Xu Hening's angle of the oven was different from Chen Jingting's, he directly asked Duran how much salt he needed, thinking that if it was not enough, he could also ask his local salt merchant friends to walk around.

Du Lan bluntly thanked him, in ancient times, salt, tea, wine, and silk were all valuable commodities, so it was reasonable for Xu Hening to know the merchants who sold salt.

However, after the relationship, I am afraid that the cost is also a lot, but I can buy more, but after the cost of the sauce goes up, it is estimated that many people can't accept the price, so she can't take the risk.

However, she still replied from her heart: "I calculated, 100 kilograms of soybeans need 30 kilograms of salt, that is, ten to three." ”

When everyone heard this, ten to three, they were immediately stunned, Rao is people in this room are all high-ranking officials and dignitaries, including Old Man Gu, who used to be a big official, and he was still taken aback when he heard this number.
