Chapter Eighty-One: Thoughts
"Mother, I'm back! Granny Qian is also there! "Tang Shiyu came back today without selling out, but there wasn't much left. Because she was in a hurry to go to the yamen, she had to go to the dock at noon.
She was alone today, and she was really tired after a busy morning. But she didn't dare to let herself stop, she was afraid that after she stopped, she would never want to move again. Life is not just about what is in front of her, and she doesn't want to grow old in inaction.
When she saw Granny Qian in the small courtyard, she was a little puzzled, did she come to chat with Mother Xu? It seems that they don't have any common language, so let's talk!
"Brother Tang is back, it just so happens that I still have something at home, so I'll go back first." Granny Qian saw Tang Shiyu come back, and it was not good to stay here for long.
"Goodbye to Granny Qian!" People said that she had something to do, and she was embarrassed to keep people, and besides, she didn't want to stay.
"Brother Tang is really a good boy who knows how to be polite!" Granny Qian smiled and sent Tang Shiyu a good person card, patted her ass and left.
But in Tang Shiyu's eyes, she thinks she has ulterior motives, and Granny Qian always smiles at her like an aunt. While making her feel cautious and panicked, she always felt that this Granny Qian was holding back some big moves.
"Mother, what is Granny Qian doing?" It wasn't until the two of them came to the house that Tang Shiyu asked, she was afraid that if she asked in the yard, she would be heard badly by Granny Qian, who hadn't gone far.
If you want to talk about right and wrong behind your back, why do you have to carry some parties behind your back! If it is heard by the person concerned, don't mention how embarrassing it is.
After all, they still live in other people's houses, and people can let them get out of the house at any time, and they have to bow their heads when they are under the eaves!
"What else can I do, inquire about your marriage! If you're ...... Alas, no more. "Mother Xu is suffering, those matchmakers don't come to the door, but they can't stop the neighbors.
"If my mother doesn't like it, let's move out. Anyway, we have money now, and we don't have to care about those few house dollars. "If you live happily, you will live, if you are not happy, there is no need to reluctantly stay here for those few room money.
"How can you say that you can move it, a lot of things!" Mother Xu directly shook her head and denied, now she can earn several taels of silver a day, where is she willing to give up the opportunity to make money for outsiders, even if she wastes a day, she is reluctant.
"It's okay, rent the other side first, and then move things over, it won't waste much time." In fact, Tang Shiyu didn't want to move, there were too many things and it was easy to do, and the cauldron in the yard was a troublesome thing.
In another place, there will definitely be a day when she will not be able to do business, and she doesn't want to move around, she is thinking about moving away after having her own land.
"I'll talk about it later" Tang Shiyu's rhetoric failed to coax Xu's mother.
"It's really not good, you just say to the outside world that I have a hidden disease and can't marry a daughter-in-law." Could it be that her charm is too great? Found out by these people?
"How can this work?" Mother Xu shook her head directly, she couldn't see anyone to slander Tang Shiyu.
"Anyway, what the hell is going on, we know for ourselves, what outsiders say, let them go!" Tang Shiyu can think about it, she is not a real man, she will not take these innocuous words to heart.
"That's not going to work, you don't care about it, I'll send it away." If you say this and let the people outside know, in case there is a habit of cutting off her sleeves, it will be over.
"Then this matter will be handed over to the mother, and you will go out in person, one top ten." Tang Shiyu slapped a sycophant at the right time, and got a coquettish white eye from Xu's mother.
"Mother, get me some silver, I want to go to the yamen to get our household registration. It is always bad if nothing is found out without a household registration. "Isn't this what she ran to the yamen so diligently!
She just thought about getting a familiar face in the yamen, and then spending some money to find someone to accommodate her, and make up for a fake household registration, which shouldn't be a big problem.
"Will this work?" Mother Xu's heart shook involuntarily, they have been here for so long, she always avoids the issue of household registration. is afraid that Tang Shiyu's identity will be exposed and bring danger to her.
"It's okay, as long as you use money to smash in front, there is no way that you can't open." In this world, as long as money can be solved, it is not a thing.
"Otherwise, if you take the post of Master Hou, in case you can't get a fake household registration, at least you won't be regarded as a fine work." Compared with exposing your identity, killing your head is a big crime!
"No, I've already taken care of it in the yamen." The braised pork she sent every day was not for them to eat for nothing, Lord Xiao was incorruptible, but not everyone in the yamen was like him.
Every time she sends braised meat to Xiao An, she will also bring a little more, at first she took the guise of inviting people to taste it, and then slowly became familiar with those little officials and Xiao Cao.
As long as the hoe is well wielded, there is no wall that cannot be dug down, no matter how honest you are, there is no door that she can't knock open.
"Then there you go! It's really not okay to be careful, so let's get out of this place. To be honest, Mother Xu didn't want to leave here, she finally settled down, she didn't want them to wander around like rootless people.
"Mother is really fine, don't you feel at ease when I do things? I'm making good money outside, and you count the money at home, and the two of us have a good cooperation. She also understands why Mother Xu is afraid of wolves and tigers, which is the result of thousands of years of oppression of women.
"Don't worry, my son is the best." Mother Xu told the truth, Tang Shiyu never disappointed her. She took out a piece of broken silver from the box where the money was kept, thought about it and took out another piece.
"Mother, how much silver have our family saved?" She probably did the math, and it was only more than twenty taels.
"More than thirty taels, not counting the package of copper plates." Mother Xu cautiously lay on Tang Shiyu's ear and bit her ear, and after biting her ear, she laughed stupidly.
"So much! It's still a mother's housekeeper! She didn't expect so many of them, she only knew that business was very good these days, but there weren't many before.
"Save for a few more months, and we will be able to buy a small yard, and then we will have our own house and home." Mother Xu's face fantasized, she didn't want much, just enough for the small courtyard where the two of them lived.
"That mother saves money well, I'll wait for my mother to buy me a yard." Tang Shiyu said this, but she didn't plan to buy a house, she wanted to buy a shop, and the best location was in Dongcheng.
The people on the east side of the city must have a higher consumption than the people on the west side of the city, her stall is placed on the west side of the city, and the people on the east side of the city are not too happy to come and buy, and the other is the things on the stall, they are not happy to buy it, and they feel that they have lost their identity.
She originally wanted to set up a stall in the east of the city, but later found out that the business of the stall was not good, and it didn't work out. Just setting up a stall is not a long-term solution, this time is the reason for the good weather, in case of wind and rain, then they can't do anything for a day.
