Chapter 208: Poke the Sore

The next day, Bai Ling and Xiao Mu went to the town together.

Xiao Mu didn't say what he wanted to buy, and Bai Ling didn't do anything to avoid people, so Xiao Mu followed all the way.

The backyard of Hongtai Silver Building.

After Bai Ling and Shen shopkeeper exchanged pleasantries, Bai Ling put the drawings on the table and said with a smile: "The snow is coming, I am afraid that it will be difficult to walk on the road, so this time I will deliver the drawings for two months together." ”

"This is naturally good." Shopkeeper Shen nodded with a smile, and reached out to pick up the drawings to take a look at them so that he could set a price for Bai Ling.

Now the price of the pattern drawn by Bai Ling has increased several times, not only because Bai Ling's design can be sold at a high price, but also because the Bai family is not short of this bit of silver now, and the boss is afraid that Bai Ling will not be willing to cooperate anymore, so he can't bear the pain of extra silver.

And the shopkeeper Shen originally had the opportunity to be transferred, but the owner was afraid that others would not have a good relationship with Bai Ling, so he left the shopkeeper Shen in the town.

But the proprietor will also win people's hearts, and prepare a small courtyard for the shopkeeper Shen to live in the city, so that the wife and children of the shopkeeper Shen can move there first, and give the shopkeeper Shen a few days of vacation every quarter to let him reunite with his family.

And the salary for the shopkeeper Shen is also set according to the Fucheng side, every time the jewelry designed by Bai Ling is sold, he will also give the shopkeeper Shen a red seal, the intention is very obvious.

But before the shopkeeper Shen's hand touched the drawing, a fair-skinned and slender hand took a step faster, took the pattern over and studied it carefully.

"This ......" Bai Ling has already introduced Xiao Mu as the master of the family, although the shopkeeper Shen is not good to say ugly things when he sees this, he is a little displeased.

"Uncle Shen rest assured, the master is only interested in chess and calligraphy and painting, and will not leak business opportunities." Bai Ling raised a smile, hiding the look of surprise in his eyes, and apologized to the shopkeeper Shen.

"I am relieved of the people you brought." When the shopkeeper Shen heard this, he thought that Xiao Mu wanted to see how the painter was, but he was no longer guarded.

After Xiao Mu finished reading the manuscript, his fingertips swiped over and looked at the dirty fingers with a slight puzzlement, and then put the sample back in its place.

After the shopkeeper Shen saw it, he set the price for Bai Ling, went through the process according to the old rules, and handed Bai Ling the jewelry he made last time, and then sent the two away.

Looking at Xiao Mu's back, Shopkeeper Shen couldn't help but sigh: "The Bai family is really up, even the west seat in the family is a dragon and phoenix, and some people believe it when it is said to be a noble son." ”

Bai Ling went out to buy some things for his family, and by the way, he learned about the current prices and the stability of the town.

It's just that Xiao Mu is here, and Bai Ling can't go to see Lao Wu and them.

Xiao Mu only bought a random miscellaneous book, and he didn't seem to be interested in everything in the town.

On the way back, Bai Ling looked at Xiao Mu several times, and saw that he seemed to be immersed in books, and he didn't say a word about today's events, but he became more and more curious about who Xiao Mu was.

"Xiao Fuzi seems to be very interested in jewelry." Bai Ling looked for a topic, she didn't forget that Xiao Mu had paid attention to the latest jewelry when she was in Hongtai Silver Building.

Especially when Shopkeeper Shen handed over the jewelry that had not yet been sold to Bai Ling, Xiao Mu looked at it twice.

"Nope." Xiao Mu shook his head, looked at Bai Ling and replied seriously, "I prefer jade design and carving. ”

"Xiao Fuzi's fan pendant, but he carved it himself?" Bai Ling's gaze fell on Xiao Mu's folding fan.

The folding fan of camphor wood and the pendant of white jade are very commensurate with Xiao Mu's temperament.

It's just that the carving of the jade pendant is very complicated, and after Bai Ling looked at it for a while, he didn't see what kind of text or totem it was.

"Yes." Xiao Mu handed the folding fan to Bai Ling, and said gently: "This is a gift from me to my weak crown, but it's a pity that I am not proficient in learning and I can't carve out what I think in my heart, which is a big failure." ”

Bai Ling observed carefully, and it was not difficult to find that the carver's skills were not enough, and the pattern design was not perfect enough.

But the quality of white jade is top-grade, and he can use such a good jade to practice his hands, saying that Xiao Mu is just a teacher, and Bai Ling will never believe it.

"Master Xiao's family must be rich, such a good jade is in the town, I'm afraid no one can afford it." Bai Ling was telling the truth.

After all, no matter how rich a person is, he will not spend most of his wealth, or even all his belongings, to buy a piece of jade to play with.

"I don't have a family business, but I don't know the geometry of the family industry."

Xiao Mu didn't intend to hide this, but he had always been low-key and didn't want to be bound by his identity, so he said half-truthfully:

"I'm ashamed to say that although I am the eldest son of the lineage, I only want to do jade design, so I was kicked out of the house by my father to practice, and I don't know when I will be able to return home."

Bai Ling pulled her lips and smiled awkwardly, as if she had poked someone's sore spot.

"If Master Xiao doesn't dislike it, he can learn a thing or two in his free time." Bai Ling thought of the treasure in his space, and said so.

"That's what I want." Xiao Mu had already come for this, and seeing that Bai Ling was happy, he would not refuse.

While the two were gossiping, the carriage had already arrived at the door, and they did not continue to discuss the topic.

Inside the county jail.

Bai Yuan's family spent money to get through the relationship, and took the wine and food he bought to see Bai Dashu.

Even though the savings in his hands were almost spent, even the house in the town was sold, and even the future of his two sons was ruined, Bai Yuan's family was still worried about Bai Dashu, afraid that he would not have a good life in prison, and even more afraid that if Bai Dashu could not get out alive, their orphans and widows would have no way to live.

"Xianggong, this is wound medicine, you are in a hurry to apply it." Watching Bai Dashu gobble up food, Bai Yuanshi wiped his tears, handed over the medicine bottle, and talked about the family's affairs, "The second room has been separated and started anew, and my mother wants to take back the land at home, saying that we will plant our own ...... next year."

"The clan said that our family would clean the ancestral hall for a year, and there would be no other punishments. It's just that the people in the village don't want to see us, and the two sons don't even dare to go out of the door, for fear of being talked about. I've gone to my father, and he'll ask someone to take care of it so that you don't have to suffer a little more in prison. ”

Bai Dashu listened, but he didn't answer a word.

Bai Dashu knew about the sentencing of Hong Quan and others, and why he was in prison for a year also guessed that it was related to Sanfang because of the jailer's chat.

"Lady, I have something for you to do." The white tree opened his gloomy mouth, afraid of being heard, so he leaned on the railing and whispered.

Bai Yuanshi listened carefully, hatred flashed in his eyes, and finally nodded heavily.

"Don't worry, I know what to do, and I will never let you suffer in vain!" Bai Yuan gritted his teeth and told Bai Dashu to take good care of himself and leave with hatred, but he didn't want Bai Dashu to be really innocent.

Although there was no chaos in Baifu County because of the proper relief of the victims, the market price has risen.

In the north, when the winter moon is over, nature has prepared a natural refrigerator for people, so that no matter what is placed outside, there is no need to worry about it breaking.

When Duan Yulang came over to negotiate a new contract, he brought a lot of meat for the Bai family, and after slaughtering white pigs, chickens and ducks, he pulled several carts.

Although these things are too down-to-earth and very unsuitable for Duan Yulang's identity, they are really very.

"Girl, you tell me the truth, you don't have any idea after spending so much money to help the victims?" Since Duan Yulang came, he wanted to rest for a day or two before leaving, and when he was talking to Bai Ling alone, he asked what he thought in his heart.
