Chapter 43: Young Master Wang Sells Peaches (Plus Change)

He was embarrassed and felt his face burn.

He lowered his voice and said gloomily: "Little brother, to tell you the truth, our family can be regarded as a cultivator. My brother had to study for the imperial examination, which cost a lot of money, and the family couldn't make ends meet, so I went out with my mother to sell peaches. My mother's face was not kind, and no one dared to approach when she saw it, so I shouted at myself. ”

Li Hanyao suddenly realized.

Even Wang's mother solved her doubts.

She just felt that this daughter-in-law did not have a very kind face, and she was not like a mother and daughter like a mother and daughter with a little girl who sold peaches, and even less like a servantβ€”if she was a servant, could she let the delicate girl shout and sell peaches, and stand by and watch?

Wang's mother felt that this situation was a bit like a girl on crutches. But it's not right, kidnappers kidnap girls, they are generally carefully cultivated, and they will never do such hard work.

Wang's mother was deeply puzzled.

Now that I have listened to Wang Yan's words, I have finally relieved my doubts.

Only the old servant was depressed and felt that he had really become a Nakshatra.

Seeing that Li Hanyao no longer doubted him, Wang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and took the opportunity to say: "Little brother, you are right, I have never done business and have no experience, in fact, I am also anxious, and I also want to sell out early so that I can go home from the city." The price reduction is really not successful, how many catties do you weigh? I'll wipe the odds for you. Alas, it's hard to do business! I borrowed this scale from the shopkeeper, and it's worth two catties of peaches. ”

Li Hanyao said: "Weigh five catties." ”

Wang Yan said: "Why don't you buy more?" ”

Li Hanyao said: "Oh, I'm just a little guy, helping the master buy things, how can I buy casually." Just now, I pressed your price, and I wanted to save a few dollars to buy steamed buns to eat. Look, you're having a hard time, so I won't eat buns. ”

Wang Yan thought to himself, if you don't eat steamed buns, I will have steamed buns to eat.

So, help her weigh the peaches.

It's also a problem to recognize the scales.

Fortunately, Young Master Wang is smart and has also learned.

After buying the peaches, Wang's mother carried them, and Li Hanyao took out a small silver horn and said to Wang Yan: "No need to look for it." See you later. ”

Wang Yan was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly looked at Wang's mother.

Mother Wang pulled Li Hanyao's sleeve violently.

Li Hanyao thought that she was urging her to go home quickly, so she hurriedly threw the silver horn in Wang Yan's hand and said, "Let's go." If I go back late, the lord will scold. ”

Wang Yan smiled and said, "Little Brother Xie." Little brother walks slowly. ”

Li Hanyao turned her face and said, "Sister, you lower the price, let's go back after selling it out earlier." You're so good-looking, beware of the bad guys. ”

Wang Yan: "......"

Will you meet the disciples?

Li Hanyao and Wang's mother walked out of one section and turned into another street, and Wang's mother said, "Mozhu, do you know what you made just now?" ”

Li Hanyao hurriedly asked, "What did I do wrong?" ”

Wang's mother said: "You just said that you are a little girl, and you spent so many words to lower the price with that girl, but in the end, you gave people a silver horn, which is worth a hundred yuan, and asked people not to look for it." Who's buying like you? ”

Li Hanyao couldn't help but be embarrassed.

She really cares about the head and tail, and fights with others for a long time for five cents, paying twenty-five cents, and the remaining seventy-five cents, stupid!

It's all that sister's trouble!

Seeing that she was ashamed, Wang's mother said, "Forget it, just pay attention to it next time." In fact, money is a trivial matter, and people like you will doubt it. ”

Li Hanyao nodded busily and was taught.

Wang's mother said again: "I see that girl is also weird, not like ordinary people. That woman is even more eccentric, and her face is ......."

Li Hanyao hurriedly said: "I don't see that they don't look like bad people." ”

Mother Wang said: "It's not a bad person. It's ......"

She couldn't say why, because people sold peaches and didn't do anything to deceive people, so she couldn't think of the purpose of the two.

As he was talking, he heard the call "little brother" behind him, Li Hanyao turned around and looked, the young lady caught up and hurriedly asked, "Sister is something?" ”

Wang Yan handed her the broken silver and said with a smile: "Although the little brother is kind-hearted, I can't be greedy for sister." This is the money that is looking for you. ”

He heard Li Hanyao say "no need to look for it" before, and he was overjoyed. After Li Hanyao left, he was uneasy again, and reflected: "I was born in a scholarly family, and I actually took advantage of children!" If that little brother had money, he wouldn't have spent half a day talking to me for a penny. It can be seen that he sympathizes with me. How could I lie to him! ”

After thinking about it, he hurriedly returned it to Li Hanyao.

Seeing that he refused to take advantage of others, Li Hanyao suddenly felt good, and said with a smile: "Sister is really ambitious." But since I have already given it to my sister, how can I get it back? Just when I help my sister - friends help each other. ”

She's a girl, so she says that.

Wang Yan is a teenager, and he doesn't feel abrupt.

He smiled and said, "Okay, sister makes you this friend." However, my sister can hold on for now, and when she can't hold it anymore, I'll look for you again. ”

"Looking for you again" is just a pretext, he can't tell Li Hanyao his name and identity, and Li Hanyao doesn't dare to tell him his name and identity.

If there is fate, we will naturally meet again.

After a few more pleasantries, Li Hanyao took back the change.

Only then did Wang Yan turn his head back.

He was inspired by this transaction, and he immediately summed up the lesson and asked the old servant to carry the burden and sell it along the street, and he shouted all the way: "Sell peachesβ€”big, red, crisp, and sweet peaches, sell them at a reduced price!" ”

Someone from the street shop came up and asked for the price.

Wang Yan said: "Five Wen and one catty." ”

The person who came frowned and said, "It's so expensive!" ”

Wang Yan said: "Uncle, this has been reduced." Look at this peach, how bright! If it hadn't rained in the morning, I saw that the peaches were ripe again, and I was afraid that it would not be easy to put them after they were ripe, so I picked this load late and came to sell it. I'm going to come back tomorrow morning, and when there are so many people, I'm sure I'll have to sell six cents a pound. ”

When people heard this, they couldn't miss the opportunity, and hurriedly said: "Weigh me three catties." ”

Wang Yan said: "Okay uncle. ”

So he weighed peaches and collected money from him.

Then, someone came to buy it.

Wang Yan repeated his previous words.

After a while, more than half of it was sold.

In the end, about 20 catties, all of them were bought by the shopkeeper of a grain store, and they were asked to carry the burden and send it to the shop to pay in person.

The king was overjoyed, and the old servant was also surprised.

When they arrived at the place, Wang Yan looked up and saw that there was a plaque on the door, which read "Abundant Grain Row", and the shopkeeper let them in.

The old servant went in with his burden.

On one side of the shopkeeper, he asked someone to bring a gift box to hold peaches, and on the other hand, he said to Wang Yan and the others: "This silver is for you." You wait for me for a while, I'll go in and ask, maybe I'll buy some more, and you'll have them delivered tomorrow morning." ”

Wang Yan hurriedly said: "Let's just wait." ”

The shopkeeper carried the gift box and went to the backyard.

Under the grape trellis in the backyard, two men sat drinking tea.

The shopkeeper first gave the two of them a gift, calling one of them in his thirties "the owner", and the other was older as "Master Qian", and put the gift box in front of Master Qian, and said with a smile: "This is a little meaning for Master Qian, not a tribute." ”

Master Qian arched his hand and said, "It's a waste of money." ”

Tan Dongjia said: "It's not worth a few coppers, take it back and coax the child." Then he asked the shopkeeper, "Why don't you buy more and give some to the prefect?" ”

The shopkeeper said, "That's all left." I was about to ask the owner, do you want to buy more? If you want to buy it, I tell the seller of peaches to bring it tomorrow morning. ”

Tan Dongjia said: "Do you still need to ask?" Buy another hundred pounds. ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

Tan Dongjia said to Master Qian again: "How is the watermelon in the previous child?" If you think it's good, ask them to send some every day. ”

Master Qian said: "It's quite sweet." ”

Tan Dongjia instructed the shopkeeper to make arrangements.

The shopkeeper was about to leave, when he heard the proprietor whisper to Master Qian: "When I talked about the little girl before, can the prefect have a reply?" He stopped.

Master Qian said: "Old Tan, we don't have a friendship for a day or two. Let me tell you the truth: you have to make friends with the prefect, there are many ways; Sending her daughter to the young master as a concubine is unreliable. The young master is not a normal person, no matter how beautiful a girl is, she can't be fresh for a few days. Therefore, it is not reliable to climb relatives, it is better to take other paths, and it will save the niece's life. ”

Tan Dongjia hurriedly asked: "What way to go?" ”

Master Qian coughed and said, "Well, you will come to the government tomorrow and discuss it in detail." Then he said to the shopkeeper: "The young master likes to smell wild flowers." The girl who sells peaches, I just glanced through the window, it's very good. ”

The shopkeeper and Tan Dongjia were stunned, and then looked at each other.

Tan Dongjia said tentatively: "Do you want the little one to help you say yes?" ”

Master Qian said: "What do you say? If something goes wrong, it's not beautiful. Aren't you going to buy peaches to give to the prefect? Ming'er asked her to send it directly to the government office. ”

The shopkeeper suddenly said: "Oh, the little one understands!" ”

Tan Dongjia gave him a flash of the eye and said, "Go and tell them to send peaches tomorrow." Good students said, don't be alarmed. ”

The shopkeeper said, "Yes, the owner." ”

Then he turned around and went to the front shop.
