Chapter 146: Who is the profiteer?

Lianjia's reply:

"This slave is not a master. I have to bother the fourth sister to draw a picture and send it to Mrs. Tai's eyes to see. ”

Shang Ruonan understood, nodded and said:

"Okay, I'll go over and have a look in the afternoon."

This should be done, which means that it will be done immediately. Lian Jia nodded and thanked him, the fourth sister of this merchant is really a person who knows etiquette.

Shang Ruonan asked Chun Tao to send away the housekeeper of Murong Mansion. Then I sat behind the desk in the study and began to think about what kind of clothes would match Mrs. Tai and this plum blossom picture? After thinking about it, I suddenly thought that the kind of improved cheongsam with a high collar turned over a little collar in the Republic of China in the past is okay, and it looks dignified and generous, and it is more temperamental!

Thought of it. Shang Ruonan began to sketch. When it was time to eat at noon, Peony came up again and said:

"Sister, why don't you go back to the yard to eat? The old lady asked Sister Qiuyue to bring the soup. I'm going to stare at you before I leave. ”

Shang Ruonan smiled and said:

"Okay, that's good. I'll go back right away. ”

After packing up the things here, he immediately led the people back to his yard. Sure enough, Qiu Yue was waiting here, and when she saw Shang Ruonan coming, she stepped forward and saluted and shouted:

"Fourth sister, the slave maid was ordered by the old lady to bring soup to the fourth sister."

Shang Ruonan deliberately made some helpless appearances and made Qiu Yue laugh. Looks like she's going to go back and report her reaction. Shang Ruonan sat down, looked at the soup, and asked:

"What kind of soup is this?"

"It's chicken soup!"

Shang Ruonan also drank the soup. Then let Chun Tao send a purse to Qiu Yue. Thank you. Qiu Yue put the purse back and said:

"Before the slave maid came, the old lady said, 'Qiuyue, you go to deliver soup, you can't ask for the reward of the fourth sister, you have to talk, you can't let her drink the soup in the future. Take Rao and be soft-mouthed! ’”

Qiu Yue also learned the old man's expression, which made everyone in the room laugh. But Qiu Yue still said with a straight face:

"So, fourth sister, the slave doesn't dare to ask for a reward. The old lady is now accurate. ”

Chun Tao smiled even more:

"Alright, alright. Sister, I won't give it. Let's save a purse. ”

Qiu Yue gave Shang Ruonan a salute, and then looked back at the red envelope step by step, looking like she wanted to take it. I couldn't help but laugh when I got to the door, and my performance was really difficult!

Even laughed so much that everyone in the room bent down.

Chun Tao smiled:

"Sister, it seems that there will be no shortage of soup. You will be delivered wherever you are. ”

Shang Ruonan nodded and said:

"Pack up your things, let's go to Murong Hou's Mansion. Go and give it to the eldest sister, the eldest sister is now the eldest in our family. On behalf of the sisters in the family, we have to thank the Murong Mansion for sending medicine. Also, shouldn't I have some gifts? ”

Chun Tao nodded and said:

"In this way, I'll go and talk to Steward Du to see what should be prepared."

Shang Ruonan thought about it and said:

"I'll also go to the main courtyard. This kind of thing should be reconciled with my father and mother. ”

Shang Ruonan took them to the main courtyard again, but I heard that Sister Yue at the door didn't come. Shang Ruonan immediately called Chun Tao to talk to the eldest sister and asked the eldest sister to change her clothes.

Shang Ruonan entered the courtyard and went directly to the West Chamber, where his mother sat for the moon, and his father was not here except for sleeping, he was all here.

Shang Ruonan went in and took a look, and sure enough, they were all there. Shang Ruonan stepped forward and saluted,

"Say hello to my father and mother."

"Ruonan, come here, have you eaten?"

Seeing Shang Ruonan coming, Shu Yunniang gently supported herself and wanted to lean up. Shang Ruonan hurriedly stepped forward and pressed his mother's body and said:

"Mother, you don't have to get up. I'm just here to talk to you, and this morning Mrs. Murong asked her housekeeper to come and ask me to make another dress for Mrs. Tai. I thought about it for a while, our family should also thank the Murong family for sending medicine. ”

"So, I want my eldest sister to go with me. I'm going to send the artwork for the painting, so please see if it's appropriate. The eldest sister should thank Mrs. Tai on behalf of our sisters. Isn't it? ”

"Oops, you don't I forgot. Fortunately, you should remind you that we should go and thank them. ”

Shang Dongliang slapped his thigh and shouted. I almost forgot about such an important thing.

Shang Ruonan smiled knowingly and said:

"Recently, my father's heart really can't tolerate other people and things except my mother!"

In a word, it made Shu Yunniang laugh so much that her face turned red. Being laughed at by her daughter like this is also a little too much. Shang Dongliang was unashamed:

"It's still the right man! Dad just doesn't have time to think about anything else right now! ”

"But Daddy, we seem to have some presents, right? I don't know what to give for this kind of thing. ”

Shang Dongliang was also stunned for a moment and said:

"If you want something, our business will turn out all the family background, and we may not be able to get into other people's husbands. Then it's just a matter of sending something special. ”

Even Shu Yunniang also said again and again:

"You should thank you, you go and kowtow for your mother. It's a pity that my mother can't move now, otherwise, my mother would definitely go to kowtow to Mrs. Tai. ”

Shang Dongliang frowned and said:

"Ruonan, in the future, you will act as the head of the business, and you can also be the master. If you go and see Murong Houye, then, the merchant owes the Murong Hou family a favor, and in the future, if the Murong family wants the merchant to do, the merchant will never back down! ”

Shang Ruonan frowned and said:

"Dad, your promise is too big. You know, those things that the Hou family came and went in the capital were all big things. If you bring one in..."

Shang Ruonan stretched out his hand and compared it around his neck, and said:

"I don't want to tie the merchants to these dignitaries."

Shang Dongliang looked at his daughter, sighed and said:

"Since I sold the dyed cloth to the Murong Hou Mansion, I have nothing to do with the Hou Mansion."

Shang Ruonan frowned again, sighed and said:

"Then what kind of home is this Murong family? If we're on the wrong boat, that's not good. It's better to find a way to get out early. ”

Shang Dongliang smiled and said:

"It's not as serious as yours. The Murong family is a very famous Hou family in our dynasty. Full of loyalty! ”

Shang Ruonan sighed again and said:

"If a profiteer has something to do with a loyal minister, it's not good!"

Looking at Shang Ruonan's age, when he said something like this, Shang Dongliang laughed angrily. Stretched out his hand and patted his daughter's head and scolded with a smile:

"Who's the profiteer? My business is never treacherous! What we do is a legitimate livelihood! ”
