When Shen Zhuzi came back with the dishes and chopsticks, only the leftovers were left on the table, and Shen Shuisheng lost his appetite when he saw it, even if his stomach was growling.

Originally, he was in time for dinner, but when he got off the ox cart and walked back, he ran into the villagers, so he was dragged to ask a few more questions, and he also learned from the villagers that his father and mother quarreled, and almost drove his eldest brother Shen Musheng out, and the cause was precisely because of the small mule cart he saw at the door just now.

When he heard that the people in the village were talking about the affairs of the old Shen family, coupled with the tone of voice when he conveyed it to him, he was not grateful to the Wan family, but felt that his mother was ignorant, greedy, did not understand any reason, and did not think about his good, all thinking of ways to ruin his reputation and want to drag him back, so that the anger in his heart couldn't help but bubble out.

Shen Shuisheng didn't care about being jealous of his eldest brother's noble man who climbed the Yunlai Tower and got a mule cart, he was just worried about his reputation.

The reputation of a scholar is the most important, and the good reputation that he has accumulated with great difficulty is simply ruined by his mother.

In addition, he couldn't eat at this time, and he was still facing these scraps, Shen Shuisheng's face was even more unsightly, and he stood up as soon as he sat down, but he suppressed his expression, and there was no anger on his face, but he looked like a polite scholar.

"Father, mother, my son has something to tell you, don't be in a hurry about eating."

Wan Shi thought that his son must not have eaten dinner when he came home at this time, and there were not many dishes to eat on this table, and his son was also living a life of fine clothes and jade food in the town, so he must not look down on this leftovers, so he wanted to instruct Shen Shuang to cook.

But thinking that she had just lost her face, she threw the job to Xiao Wan's, "The second one, you eat well and go to the kitchen to get a bowl of noodles for the third child, remember to add some meat and more oil." ”

Xiao Wan, who had just put down the bowl, wanted to refuse but didn't have the courage to refuse, so he reluctantly responded with a smirk, got up and walked to the kitchen to get Shen Shuisheng to eat, but she didn't find the meat Wan's wanted in the whole kitchen, because Shen Shuang had already hidden all the meat that could not be eaten.

Shen Shuang can actually guess a little about the purpose of Shen Shuisheng's coming home, Jiang Zipei told her that Wangjia Rice Shop sells peach gum, since Yunlailou knows about it, it must have spread in the town, otherwise he wouldn't have rushed back overnight.

As for what to do when you come back, you don't have to guess.

Shen Shuang didn't want to bother with this matter, and when she saw that everyone put down their chopsticks, she got up to clean up, and the hills and stones on the side also automatically and consciously helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

Shen Cuini ate a little bit, she didn't go back to the house, seeing the stone so diligently helping Shen Shuang work, but usually let him get something for herself, she was so angry that she didn't want to, she took a few steps forward and directly grabbed the stone to prevent him from moving.

"Sister, what are you pulling me for?" Shi held a few bowls and a few pairs of chopsticks in his hands, and turned his head to look at Shen Cuini with a confused expression.

Shen Cuini couldn't wait to snatch the chopsticks in his hand and smash them on the ground, so that Shen Shuang could see how powerful she was, and even instructed her own brother, but she didn't dare, if the chopsticks were really smashed, she would only be the one who would be scolded.

"What can I do? I asked you what you were doing? Who told you to clean up the dishes? If you break the bowl for a while, see if the milk doesn't give you a beating. ”

The stone thought that Shen Cuini had something to do with him, but it turned out that he was threatening him again, so he immediately rolled his eyes disapplausively, "I'm amazing, why would I break the bowl?" I work, and my lord praised me before, who is like you, I can't do anything. ”

Shen Cuini saw that he was in opposition to herself, she was angry, and she reached out to spank him, "You stinky boy, see if I don't beat you to death." ”

The stone was slippery like a loach, and Shen Cuini couldn't pull him at all, "Originally, you didn't do any work, and the milk pumped you." ”

As he spoke, the stone ran to the water tank with the dishes and chopsticks, regardless of whether Shen Cuini was so angry that her lungs hurt.

As for Shen Shuang, who was wiping the table on the side and witnessing the whole process, she didn't say anything when she smiled, she didn't interject, but she still provoked Shen Cuini.

Shen Cuini suddenly missed the time when Shen Forsythia was at home, although she also hated Shen Forsythia, but every time she asked her to do something, she didn't dare not do it, and in general, she was a person who could be manipulated by her.

But at this moment, she was angry when she saw Shen Shuang's appearance, because she couldn't do anything about Shen Shuang at all, she couldn't beat Shen Shuang in a fight, and she couldn't quarrel with Shen Shuang in a quarrel, so she was a little discouraged for no reason.

But Shen Cuini quickly remembered that her grandmother said that she would find a man for Shen Shuang to marry, and as long as she left the Shen family, her ears would definitely be purified, and she suddenly became comfortable.

"Shen Shuang, you wait for me, there is a time for you to cry."

Shen Shuang looked at her back, and rolled her eyes a little speechlessly, she didn't provoke Shen Cuini, but she always regarded herself as an imaginary enemy, and this person was also very sick.

In the hall.

Wan Shi looked at Shen Shuisheng with a distressed expression, "Third child, why are you coming home at this hour?" It's time to starve. ”

The old man Shen on the side was a little bit introspective, thinking that he had been a little partial to his younger son over the years, and his attitude towards him had changed a little at this time, and he became much colder, "Third child, what happened?" Need you to come back overnight? ”

Shen Shuisheng's mind was not here at this moment, and he didn't notice Old Man Shen's cold attitude at all.

He originally wanted to talk about what he had just heard from the people in the village, but when he heard this, he thought that peach gum was more important, after all, it was a big deal to make money, and it also made him get acquainted with the shopkeeper of Manfu Building, which was a big deal, it was a restaurant opened by a big man in Beijing, and it was definitely not comparable to the small Yunlai Building.

"Dad, mother, that's the case, the peach gum I brought from home last time was sold."

Wan's oh, didn't react much, "Just sold out?" ”

When Shen Shuisheng heard this, he felt that his mother was uninformed, "Mother, I sold three taels of silver a catty, and I was bought by the shopkeeper of Manfulou for five taels of silver a catty, and he also had to buy a large number of them, I didn't hurry home, thinking about selling the rest of the peach gum to the shopkeeper of Manfulou, that Yunlailou is too pitty, a cup of peach gum is a few taels of silver." ”

Wan Shi and Old Man Shen glanced at each other, their eyes full of disbelief, "Five taels of silver? ”

Shen Shuisheng was very excited, "Yes, it's five taels of silver." This is four taels of silver a pound more than Yunlai Building, if it hadn't been sold before, maybe the peach gum in that basket could earn five hundred taels of silver. ”

When Wan Shi heard this, she was silent and didn't speak, she still remembered the last time she was kicked in the heart by the shopkeeper of Manfulou, which made her unable to get out of bed for several days, and she still had a thorn in her heart.

Old man Shen was more direct, staring at Shen Shuisheng and asking, "Third child, have you forgotten that last time I went to Manfu Building with your mother to sell peach gum, the shopkeeper kicked me and your mother out, and kicked your mother?" ”

Although Wan Shi felt uncomfortable, he didn't like his old man to question his son like this, "Look at what you said?" The third child must remember, but selling peach gum is selling peach gum, which is also two different things. ”

Shen Shuisheng really forgot about this stubble, but listening to it at this time, he couldn't help but defend a few points for the shopkeeper of Manfulou, if he could climb up to Manfulou, even if he was the county master, maybe he would give him a little thin noodles, and if he really became an official at that time, his life would definitely be much smoother.

Shen Shuisheng cleared his throat, "Dad, mother, last time, the shopkeeper of Manfulou thought that he didn't know the benefits of this peach gum before he refused." Besides, the two of you are also lions with big mouths, ten taels of silver and a pound of peach gum, that is not bird's nest, and you really dare to ask for the price. ”

Wan Shi was stunned, he didn't expect his son to talk like this, and Old Man Shen also frowned, looking not very happy, of course, Shen Shuisheng didn't pay much attention and continued to talk.

"I was invited by the shopkeeper of Manfulou to Manfulou to eat and drink today, and he told me that in the future, our peach gum can be sent to him, as much as you want, five taels of silver a catty. Just for this, we can't help but do business with Manfulu. ”

Old man Shen held his breath, "The shopkeeper of Manfulou kicked your mother to lie on the kang for several days, we can't find him to settle accounts, so we have to do business with him?" ”

Wan Shi didn't say a word on the side, and she felt a little uncomfortable, she was also a character who would be revenged, others almost kicked her to death, and she was still in a hurry to sell peach gum?

When Shen Shuisheng saw his father's expression, he was immediately a little dissatisfied, feeling that the two elders were simply ignorant and brainless, and they didn't want to put white flowers and silver, but they were talking about the previous Chen Guzi rotten sesame seeds.

"Dad, my mother's injury was not deliberately kicked by the shopkeeper of Manfulou, it is estimated that the two of you did not make it clear to the shopkeeper at that time to make such a big misunderstanding, otherwise you would sell ten taels of silver and a pound of peach gum at once, and the restaurant naturally thought that the two of you were going there to make trouble. As the largest restaurant in the backing town, those who can go there to deliver goods have signed a contract in advance. ”

Wan was dumbfounded, unexpectedly that the news of her injury came out of her son's mouth as if it had become her fault.

Although Wan Shi has always listened to Shen Shuisheng's words the most, she is still a little unhappy that her son is not helping her, but on the whole, she has begun to wonder if they didn't explain it clearly at that time.

Old man Shen was a little angry, "Third child, what are you talking about?" I think that the shopkeeper of Manfulou is a dog looking down on people, and I don't look at it as a good thing. ”

Shen Shuisheng frowned, he didn't expect his father's reaction to be so big, and when he looked at his mother again, he seemed to be confused, and he was a little irritable.

"Dad, mother, okay, even if it's not the shopkeeper of Manfulou, but now you don't need to deal with him in the past, we can't get along with silver, you will bring me all the peach gum left at home to the town, and when the time comes, I will sell it to Manfulou, and we will definitely be able to earn a few thousand taels of silver at that time."

Thinking of a few thousand taels of silver, Shen Shuisheng's tone of voice became very excited, and Wan Shi listened, so much silver, he also forgot about his injury, but entangled in the fact that he should not sell the peach gum to Yunlailou before.

"Hey, old man, I'm fine, just sell those peach gums to the third child and sell them to Man Fulou. Alas, if we could have sold the peach gum sold to Yunlailou to Manfulou, we might have been able to get more silver, all because of Xiaoshuang's stinky girl, I think she was bought by the Jiang brothers and sisters in Yunlailou, otherwise she could get so many good things? ”
