176: She's changed, he's thin
Cheng Qing is proud.
This emotion came inexplicably, and it seemed to be taken for granted.
After Cheng Rong was buried, Cheng Qing heard a more detailed version from Old Man He's mouth.
It turned out that at the beginning, He Wan said that he wanted to manage the weaving workshop, but He Lao Yuanwai refused.
However, others are daughter slaves, and He Lao's granddaughter slave has been outside for many years, where can he withstand He Wan's coquettish entanglement, and finally agreed to let He Wan give it a try.
This time, I really tried to make a name for myself, which made He Lao Wai both happy and entangled.
The old man knew that He Wan's schoolgirl was pricked with needles in her fingers, and she couldn't tell the difference between sauce and vinegar...... Then you don't have to learn very well, you can fool people.
The housekeeper taught him to settle accounts with his heart, so he was afraid that He Wan would be deceived.
However, He Lao Yuanwai didn't expect that He Wan was so good, how much silk does the weaving workshop use in a year, how much dye to enter, which satin sells the best, which kind of satin is the most labor-intensive, these knowledge is cumbersome and difficult to remember, and it is many times more difficult than learning how many times the female red cooks!
He Wan is not afraid of annoyance, not afraid of tiredness, she runs to the weaving workshop when she is free, follows the old steward of the weaving workshop and asks questions, and then pulls her sleeves to carry the dye bucket, and looks at the master weaving brocade, a squat is a day, so more than a month, He Wan only has a little understanding of the operation of the weaving workshop, and that attitude first moved He Lao.
What's the use of being smart, are there few smart people in the world?
Many people rely on their own cleverness, stealing and opportunistic, and have relied on cleverness all their lives.
The most difficult thing is to be smart and willing to learn, and willing to spend effort on research.
He Laoyuanwai originally had the idea of letting his granddaughter know the difficulties and retreat, but He Wan just didn't shout tired, but put He Laoyuanwai in a dilemma.
Do you really want to call Wan Niang Guan?
Where is this going to work?
But he wants to teach him for a few years, Wan Niang's qualifications, not to mention opening up the territory, it should be no problem to keep the weaving workshop. Wan Niang wants to manage the weaving workshop, and she has that potential, why can't she manage it, just because she is a little lady?
He Lao Yuan hesitated.
Old man He fought in his heart.
The old man himself hadn't figured it out yet, and Uncle He Wan heard the news and went back to Nanyi to persuade him.
Some say that the old man is confused, and some say that He Wan loves to toss, both inside and outside the words are to let He Wan be honest at home to marry, and they have no opinion on the old man's subsidy of a generous dowry, don't show your face outside, so that the reputation of other little ladies of the He family will be affected.
The uncles' evaluation is a blind toss, He Wan is not sensible, and the old man is also indulgent.
There are also aunts who say that it is also ugly, some give He Wan a female ring, and some go to the temple to ask for a talisman to let He Wan drink talisman water, suspecting that He Wan fell into the water last year and was entangled in something dirty in the water, and now it is so abnormal.
When He Lao Yuanwai beat his son and daughter-in-law out, his wavering heart was set - others said that Wan Niang couldn't manage the weaving workshop, and he wanted Wan Niang to try!
He Laoyuanwai was a buddy of the silk shop when he was young, and the owner of the silk shop wanted to call He Laoyuanwai to be his son-in-law, but he wanted to break through by himself. Others laughed at him for being stupid, he didn't accept the good things of both people and money, and went out by himself, how could he inherit his father-in-law's silk shop in the future?
He Lao Yuan does not believe in evil, he took the salary he saved, quit the job of the silk shop to set up his own door, the owner of the silk shop scolded him for not knowing how to lift, but the young lady loved him and had ambition, and said that he had to wait for him.
Three years later, the lady of the silk shop became an old woman who was laughed at, He Lao ran away for three years, was robbed by the strongman, deceived by the liar, and also had the help of nobles, and finally asked him to take the thousands of taels of silver he earned, and returned to Nanyi in a beautiful manner, and married the lady of the silk shop owner's family.
"The old man didn't gamble that time when he was young, although he wouldn't starve to death and die of poverty, most of the time he had to be mediocre and mediocre to guard his father-in-law's silk shop until he was old, and he would be scolded as a door-to-door son-in-law who ate soft rice. The old man gambled on that, so there is today's He family. ”
At that time, there was a young lady who did not marry for three years, waiting for him to return to his hometown.
The old father-in-law scolded him for not knowing how to lift, and wanted to force him to be soft, so he deliberately deducted most of his salary.
In a flash, decades have passed since these things, and Old Man He asked Cheng Qing drunkenly:
"Cheng Xiaolang, tell me, what the old man can do, why can't Wan Niang do it?"
Cheng Qing poured a glass of wine for Mr. He: "You can do it, of course Miss He can do it, with the foundation you have laid, Miss He may do better." ”
Old man He stared drunken outside: "You don't dislike Wan Niang?" They all said that the old man was wrong, that Wanniang should not show her face, that she had no parental upbringing, and that she really had no rules......"
Cheng Qinghu was suspicious, "Are you really drunk or pretending to be drunk?" Of course, I don't dislike Miss He, if it weren't for the person I liked, I would be very willing to ask to marry Miss He. ”
"Huh...... Get out, the old man is drunk and going to sleep! ”
It's so realistic, just now I pulled her to call Xiaoyou, just let her go.
Cheng Qing went out of He Mansion with a slightly drunken spirit, and Si Yan still didn't understand what his young master was happy about.
Among the people around Cheng Qing, probably only Si Yan knew that Old Man He wanted to marry He Wan to Cheng Qing, but Cheng Qing refused.
So young master, you can have a snack, you don't marry Miss He, Miss He is in charge of the weaving workshop, and you may have to beg for food in Miss He's hands in the future...... The life of the Lord's family is not easy, and it is also difficult for the people at present.
Si Yan was persuading, Cheng Qing took out a stack of rice paper from his arms and stuffed it to him: "The things on the picture, you personally go to the field to find a few craftsmen to do, don't care how much silver is spent, things have to be made of good materials, durability is the standard, and it has to be fine, and the finished products made by the last few craftsmen must be able to be pieced together into a set of things." ”
Si Yan was confused.
No matter what Cheng Qing says, he has always complied.
Cheng Qing saw that he had put away the drawings, and encouraged him with a smile, "Whether your young master wants to eat Miss He's soft rice or not depends on whether you do well on this errand." ”
Yes?
Is it such an important thing, Si Yan suddenly felt that the stack of rice paper on his body was so weighty!
After explaining these things, Cheng Qing can return to the academy.
It's almost June.
She had already seen Cui Yan at Cheng Rong's funeral, He Wan had changed, Cui Yan's changes were not small, Cheng Qing felt that he had been away for a few months, Cui Yan had lost at least twenty or thirty pounds, and the little fat man when Cheng Ping first saw him in the sixth year only revealed his original facial features after losing weight.
It turns out that Cui Yan has a high nose bridge and Danfeng eyes!
In the past, these features were buried by the flesh on the face.
Cheng Qing was very surprised at the time, the changes in He Wan and Cui Yan all happened in just a few months, and how many things she missed when she was not in Nanyi.
However, I didn't have time to talk to Cui Yan at that time, and when we met at this time, Cheng Qing had to ridicule a few words, and returned the private chapter given by Cui Yan:
"The business I mentioned is almost ready to start."
"Good!"
Cui Yan smiled and nodded, with Danfeng eyes and a high nose bridge, he was very handsome of a rich young master.
Cheng Qing thought that only He Wan and Cui Yan had changed, but she ignored the changes in her family, when she was nineteen years old, she relied on the strict standard of "no concubines and no intercourse" to scare away the suitors Cheng Da Niang, and now she is wandering in a free love that is incompatible with the social environment of Dawei...... No one in the family has found out about this yet, and this 'free love' is simply sweet and exciting!
