Chapter 114: Horses Raise People
"You're down so early today?"
Qin Xianggang hesitated for a moment, wanting to agree to go and see that shop, if that shop was really good, wouldn't it be a pity to miss it.
As soon as she raised her head, she saw Han Yunxiao coming over at some point, and he was still carrying a bloody rabbit in his hand.
"There were too many people in the mountains today, and I didn't want to join in the excitement, so I came back early."
Although Han Yunxiao said this, his eyes kept falling on Jiang Li's body, revealing a somewhat cold look.
Anyone can see that Han Yunxiao can't wait to tear Jiang Li apart at this time, but this guy himself has no awareness of this, he is still sitting cross-legged in front of Qin Xiang's stall, leisurely eating fried chicken.
This guy was originally raised by a big family, and his every move was very elegant, even if he sat in front of the stall, he didn't have the slightest sense of disobedience.
The corners of Qin Xiang's mouth twitched, and he nodded lightly at Han Yunxiao and said, "Then you quickly sell this rabbit, and then we will go to the academy to pick up the two children and go back." ”
"Are you really not going to take a look?"
Jiang Li was a little anxious at this time, put down the fried chicken and asked.
"I'm not going to go if it's too late today, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Qin Xiang shook her head, after all, the rumors were spreading, and she didn't want to always get together with Jiang Li at this juncture.
Jiang Li couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he still nodded and said, "That's okay, I'll come back tomorrow morning!" ”
"Anyway, it's sold out, let's go together, we don't have to go home to eat today, we just sold rabbits, let's eat outside."
Han Yunxiao didn't want Qin Xiang and Jiang Li to come into contact for a moment, although he didn't believe the rumors outside, he felt very uncomfortable when he saw a man always pestering his wife.
"Then it's better to go to the restaurant where we had dinner last time, this time it's still me who has a treat, and it just so happens that the restaurant has recently had a heartbeat!"
Jiang Li heard Han Yunxiao say this, and immediately responded with a smile.
"Let's go see the shop, where is it?"
Qin Xiang saw that Han Yunxiao kept shaking his eyes at Jiang Li, and asked with a smile.
She actually thinks it's quite interesting in her heart, and she has only such a boyfriend in her two lives, and it is the first time she has experienced that others are jealous of her.
It's just that she knows that it is enough, so she politely refuses to eat.
After listening to Qin Xiang's words, Jiang Li was not disappointed, but even happier.
He seemed to be sure that Qin Xiang would definitely fall in love with that shop, and Qin Xiang didn't know why he was so happy.
"Then let's just get there."
After Jiang Li finished speaking, he got into the carriage, he didn't sit in it, he sat side by side with the coachman, tilted his head and Qin Xiang had nothing to say.
Qin Xiang sat on the carriage and nodded in response, usually Jiang Li said three words before she would reply.
It's just that in the eyes of everyone, the two are talking happily.
Han Yunxiao didn't care much about it, because he could see that Qin Xiang was a little absent-minded.
The ox cart walked for three quarters of an hour before finally arriving at the door of the shop Jiang Li said.
Qin Xiang got out of the carriage and found out that she had been to this shop before, and she was also cooking food.
Qin Xiang remembered that this shop used to make noodles, and she and Han Yunxiao came here to eat noodles half a month ago.
I never thought that after only half a month, it would be very depressed here.
Jiang Li jumped out of the carriage, took the lead in the shop, and shouted at the shop: "Ma Juren come out, someone has come to buy your shop!" ”
Soon I heard the sound of hurried footsteps on the stairs on the second floor of the noodle shop, and I saw a man in his fifties walking down from the second floor and looking towards the door.
After seeing Jiang Li, this person immediately said respectfully: "It turned out to be Young Master Jiang, my young master is waiting on the second floor, please go up with me." ”
As if he had never seen Qin Xiang and Han Yunxiao, this man said with a smile on his face to Young Master Jiang.
"Lead the way!"
Jiang Li nodded and took the lead in walking upstairs, followed by Qin Xiang and Han Yunxiao, who also followed upstairs.
When I got to the second floor, I saw a young man in his twenties, sitting on a chaise longue, still holding a teapot in his hand, drinking tea with a look of enjoyment.
After seeing Jiang Li come in, he smiled and said, "You're finally here, if you don't come again, I'm leaving!" ”
This person seems to be very familiar with Jiang Li, and after seeing Jiang Li, he immediately stood up with a smile and said.
"I didn't know if I was here, I also found you a buyer, haven't you always wanted to sell this shop?"
Jiang Li glanced at Qin Xiang with a smile on his face.
The young man looked at Qin Xiang and found that although Qin Xiang was dressed very shabby, he had a somewhat quiet temperament between his eyebrows, which was rare in the capital.
He couldn't help but glance at them all, and then asked Jiang Li with his eyes, what kind of person is this.
"This is called Qin Xiang, your uncle is in my house, she made all the meals she ate that week, her cooking skills are particularly exquisite, and this time I want to buy a fried chicken shop to continue to open."
Jiang Li smiled, and he knew that this guy would see Qin Xiang's difference.
"I remembered when you said that, I also asked the steward to buy Qin Niangzi's fried chicken before, and it tasted really good."
Ma Juren glanced at Qin Xiang and said with a smile: "Your cooking skills are so good, why don't you go into Jiang's Mansion to be a cook, it's much more stable than outside." ”
Qin Xiang shook his head, and there was a bit of mockery in his eyes: "Although it is stable, it is not free, I can't live like that." ”
After Ma Juren heard this, he didn't say anything, but pointed to the surroundings and said: "All the seats in my shop are left, so they are more expensive than ordinary shops, for Jiang Li's sake, I will shoot two hundred taels." ”
Seeing that Qin Xiang didn't want to mention going to Jiang's house, Ma Juren immediately diverted the topic and talked about this shop.
When Qin Xiang came up just now, he took a special look and found that this shop must have been repaired in recent months.
The tables, chairs and benches are all very new, and even if she opens a shop again, she doesn't need to buy new things.
"Can we go to the backyard?"
Qin Xiang was a little fed up with those superb relatives in the village, and thought in his heart that it would not be a good thing if he could move to the county to live.
"Yes, there are six houses in the backyard, a vegetable garden and an open space, and my shop covers the largest area of the whole street."
Ma Juren nodded as he spoke, and Qin Xiang turned around and walked downstairs.
Seeing this, Han Yunxiao hurriedly followed, and the two followed the housekeeper, passed through the small door on the first floor, and walked into the backyard.
This courtyard is really the same as Ma Juren said, it occupies a large area, and a row of houses has been built near the back.
Qin Xiang went to take a special look at these houses, they were all tiled houses with water, which were better than many rich families in the village.
One of them had an open door, so Qin Xiang deliberately walked to the door, looked inside, and found that the room was paved, although it was not a wooden floor, but it was also made of green bricks, and it looked very clean.
The walls were painted very smoothly, Qin Xiang reached out and touched it, although he didn't know what material this wall was made of, but it looked quite good.
This small room is at least forty square meters, although it is a little smaller, but it looks good.
Qin Xiang looked at it carefully, then nodded with satisfaction, and greeted the middle-aged man who led the way with a smile: "You are the steward of the Ma family, right?" ”
"Indeed, Mrs. Qin just calls me Mazhou, do you want to go elsewhere to see? I'll show you there. ”
Ma Zhou nodded, and then said lightly.
Qin Xiang couldn't help but be a little surprised, she had seen a lot of stewards in setting up stalls selling fried chicken outside during this time.
Most of the stewards regarded themselves as superior and looked down on ordinary people like them.
Therefore, he often behaves arrogantly, Qin Xiang has seen a lot, so he naturally doesn't care about their attitude.
So far, only Mama Jiang and Mazhou have a kinder attitude towards people than others.
Qin Xiang nodded, and couldn't help but guess that the Jiang family and the Ma family should be about the same family, and even the Ma family was more powerful than the Jiang family.
"This yard sells for two hundred taels, which is really good."
This time, even Han Yunxiao nodded with satisfaction and said.
"Then let's settle down, lest we ......"
Qin Xiang is also a little impatient now, and finally saw such a suitable shop, so he naturally had to settle down quickly, so as not to be snatched away by others.
Han Yunxiao frowned, but he was not very happy, he always felt that if he really bought this shop at a low price, he owed Jiang Li a favor.
Thinking of this, he would rather not have this shop, but seeing that Qin Xiang was so happy, he had no choice but to swallow back the words of opposition.
When the two returned to the second floor, Jiang Li and Ma Juren were chatting happily, and after seeing the two come back, Jiang Li immediately stood up.
"Qin Xiang, what do you think?"
Seeing Jiang Li's courteous appearance, Ma Juren couldn't help frowning, although he didn't go out much, but the people in the family also told him a lot about the eldest young master of the Jiang family and hooking up with a peasant woman.
He hadn't taken it seriously before, but now that he saw the real person, he was a little skeptical.
"Ma Juren's yard is really good, and we earned it by selling it to us for two hundred taels."
When Qin Xiang came before, he was still thinking about cutting the price, but when he saw such a good shop, he also knew that it was impossible to lower it.
"I don't know if you will be free later, let's go to the county government to transfer the shop to me and my father-in-law's name?"
Qin Xiang looked at Ma Juren, took out two hundred taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Ma Juren.
"Just write your own name, not mine."
Han Yunxiao felt that although he also gave half of the silver in order to buy this shop, after all, when he built the house before, Qin Xiang also gave a lot of silver.
Therefore, he hoped that this shop would be counted in Qin Xiang's name.
Ma Juren looked at the two of them with some surprise, and suddenly felt that the relationship between the couple was good, and Qin Niangzi didn't look like she had anything to do with Jiang Li.
He turned his head to look at Jiang Li, and found that Jiang Li's face was a little gloomy, and he immediately understood.
He has unilaterally taken a fancy to the village woman, but the village woman has not taken a fancy to him, and Ma Juren almost didn't laugh after discovering this.
"Naturally, I'm free, let's go today, by the way, I'll have dinner today, don't shirk it!"
