Chapter 167: Let Me Go

Ruolan ran all the way into the three-room courtyard, shouting from her uncle and uncle, and before she ran into the house, she was picked up by Tao Zhe who came out.

Ruolan giggled and pinched Tao Zhe's face, "Uncle has gained weight!" She said.

Tao Zhe hugged her for a while, and also pinched Ruolan's little face, and said, "You are also fat, why don't you grow one?" I can't even hold you anymore. ”

Ruofeng, who followed behind, stood at the foot of the steps and gave Tao Zhefu a look in an orderly manner, and shouted: "Uncle." ”

Tao Zhe hugged Ruolan and looked sideways at Ruofeng, and said, "You have grown taller, don't stand under the sun, hurry up and go into the house." ”

Tao Zhe turned around and entered the main hall, "What about your aunt?" He said.

"She's talking to the eldest sister in the back, and I'm expected to be back in a while." Ruofeng, who came in from behind, said.

Ruolan put her arms around Tao Zhe's neck and asked him if he had brought any gifts to them, Tao Zhe pointed to a blue floral bag on the table for her to see, and the gifts were all there.

Ruolan slipped out of Tao Zhe, ran over and climbed into the chair, and went to look through the baggage on the table.

Ruofeng asked Tao Zhe to sit down, asked the maid to serve tea, and asked people to wash the fresh fruit and send it, and asked Tao Zhe to try it.

"When did my uncle come back?"

"I came back yesterday afternoon, and I'm coming to see you today."

"Isn't it fun over there in Suzhou? Is there any fun in Jinling? ”

"It's fun, I'll tell you about ,...... when I have time."

Over there, Ruolan had already opened the furoshi, revealing the contents inside.

There is a box inside the baggage, and next to it are two colored silks suitable for summer clothes, on which are placed several double-sided embroidered fans, and four folding fans.

Ruolan held two fans, and couldn't put them down and looked at them over and over again, "Look good!" She said.

After a while, Tao came back and saw that his younger brother, who he hadn't seen for half a year, had grown a lot taller, and the two exchanged a few words, and Tao asked how his grandfather's health was, and asked about the current situation of the rest of his grandfather's family.

Tao Zhe talked to Tao one by one, and then said: "My grandfather originally wanted to bring you something to eat, but because I didn't bring so many people when I went out, and it was not easy to store it in the hot weather, my grandfather dispelled the idea of letting me bring things for you, so he asked me to bring a few pieces of gold and silver jewelry for you and your two nephews and nephews' daughters."

I bought a few fans and gave them a few to play with. ”

"What are you bringing with you from such a big distance!" Tao's eyes were slightly red, he dipped the corner of his eye with a handkerchief, turned around and told the maid to prepare lunch, and asked people to go to the school to call Mei Zhigao and Mei Zhishu back to play with their uncle for a day.

In the afternoon, Ruoxue got up from a nap, asked people to call Pomegranate to the study, and said to her: "You clean up, and I will send you to the capital tomorrow." ”

"Why? Did the slave do something wrong? Pomegranate was a little dazed, looking at the eldest lady sitting behind the bookcase.

"You didn't do anything wrong." Ruoxue looked at her and said seriously: "I asked you to go to the capital because I have something to do with you;

The checkers and playing cards that your young lady makes have to be taught by someone who can play them, so that people can play and buy what your young lady makes. I want you to go to the capital to teach those who have bought checkers and poker, and if someone buys what your young lady makes, you young lady can earn silver, right? ”

Pomegranate never thought about what the eldest lady told her, this is also because the eldest lady values her, so she gave her such a thing, how can she refuse!

Listening to what the eldest lady said, letting her go to the capital also means helping the third lady earn money, the third miss is her master, and she should do things for the third lady.

"Okay, I'm willing to go to the capital." Pomegranate curts.

Ruoxue smiled and said, "Then you go and clean up, say goodbye to your old son and your little sister, and tomorrow I will have someone send you and those checkers and pokers to the capital." ”

Pomegranate answered "yes" and withdrew.

She returned to the east wing, Ruohong had not woken up yet, but Dan Tang had already woken up, sitting in the outer room drinking a cup of herbal tea.

Dan Tang didn't see her when he woke up, so he asked the little girl at the door, and I heard that the eldest lady called her, and I didn't know what it was.

Seeing that she was back, Dan Tang asked, "What did the eldest lady tell you to say?" ”

"The eldest lady asked me to go to the capital and help the third lady sell things." Pomegranate walked to the side of the couch, pulled out a small box of red lacquered wood from under the couch, packed up his clothes, and put a small baggage.

Dan Tang heard her say this, thinking that she was going to leave here, and she was reluctant for a while, so she ran over and grabbed her and said, "You want to go to the capital?" Are you leaving Miss Three? You...... You ungrateful villain. ”

Pomegranate shook off her hand, "Why am I ungrateful, why am I a villain again?" You can make it clear, huh? ”

"You...... You are ungrateful if you leave Miss Three, Miss Three is so good to you, but you want to leave Miss Three is a villain. ”

"It's not that I'm going to the capital, it's the eldest lady who asked me to go."

"Can't you just not go? Then you won't be able to see us. ”

"I don't want to go to ,...... either"

As he spoke, Pomegranate lay on the couch and began to cry.

Dan turned around and fell on the table and cried.

Ruohong rubbed her eyes and came out, and saw that both of them were crying there, "What's the matter, someone stole your silver?" She said.

Dan Tang raised his head and pointed to the pomegranate and said, "She's leaving us to go to the capital, don't want us." ”

"To the capital?" Ruohong woke up for the most part, walked to the edge of the couch and sat down, and asked, "What are you doing in the capital?" ”

Pomegranate sat up slowly, took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears on her face, and slowly told Ruoxue about letting her go to the capital.

Tanquana wiped away her tears and sat there listening to them.

Ruohong understood what she said, Ruoxue asked her to go to the capital to do promotion, and let her be a sales assistant.

Looking at the pomegranate who stopped her tears, at the age of thirteen or fourteen, she was going to leave her family and friends at such a young age and go to a strange place, but it was really difficult for her.

"I'll go to my sister and ask her to find someone else to go to the capital." Ruohong stood up and walked outside.

Pomegranate went up and grabbed her and said, "Third Miss, I can do it, let me go." ”

After another five days, the total number of silk purchases from all over the country was transmitted to Ruoxue, and after repeated calculations, Ruoxue spent a total of more than 160,000 taels of silver on the purchase of silk this year.

Ruoxue called Fang Jin and asked him to load the silk gathered in Hangzhou on a ship and send it north along the canal to Cangzhou, Hebei.

Ruohong couldn't guess what she meant by doing this, why did she put it well in Hangzhou, why did she send it to a place in Hebei where silk was not woven.

"Isn't it good to put those silks in Hangzhou! Why send it to Cangzhou? Wouldn't this be a waste of manpower and material resources, and it would cost a lot of silver, which was a bit more than worth the loss! Ruohong said.
