Miss Ming listened, walked over and said, "Qi Niang can believe me, don't think it's just to rob you of your job." ”

Qi Niang smiled and said, "You and Ziruo were brought out by me, and you have been trained since you were little girls, and I know best what you are thinking and what (xìng)." Qi Niang, even if I hand over the Red Sleeves Fang to you, any of the two of you, don't worry. ”

Miss Ming moved a stool and sat on the head of the (chuáng), helped Qi Niang smooth the hair around her ears, and said with a smile: "I don't know who it is, I have been handing over the red sleeve workshop to this girl next to me (shēn)." And then you say believe me? ”

Qi Niang sighed and said, "Think about it, it's not good after all." Jin Yao is a big girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet, even if she is smart and thoughtful, I can't pull her down this fire pit. Actually, Qi Niang wants to hand over the Red Sleeves Fang to her, isn't it because this girl does things unexpectedly, can she give you all a good life (rì)? ”

Miss Ming nodded and said, "That's it, who doesn't know that Jin Yao is famous for writing books?" There are also carriage and horse shops outside the city, and even the government has to give a few points of face. ”

Su Jinyao smiled when she heard this, and said, "That's Brother Ma's help, without his care, the carriage and horse shop would not be so prosperous." Writing a book, it's not me at all, it's just someone to write it, I'm a person who steals fame and reputation. ”

After saying that, Su Jinyao lifted the quilt covering Qi Niang (shēn) again and pressed it on her abdomen with her hand. Qi Niang pressed "ahh

Su Jinyao hurriedly said: "Auntie, it's my hands that are heavy, I'm sorry." ”

"It's okay, I don't blame you, it's just uncomfortable." Qi Niang's face turned pale in pain, but she shook her head with a smile and asked Su Jinyao not to take it to heart.

Su Jinyao felt bitter in her heart for a while, but her face didn't show it, she just said, "Auntie, I see that you can rest assured that you will hand over the Red Sleeves Fang to Miss Ming?" Then you can just follow me. ”

"Follow you from the good?" Qi Niang laughed when she heard it, and said, "You little girl has a lot of ghost eyes, but this is really weird." Even if Qi Niang wants to find a young one, she has to be a descendant? You little girl, let me follow you. ”

Su Jinyao also smiled, looked up and said to Miss Ming: "Listen, she is not sick, pretending to be sick and lazy." And I carry it so hard. ”

Miss Ming is a smart and clear-eyed person, and when she saw Su Jinyao smiling, there was pain and sourness in the depths of her eyes, and she understood a little in her heart.

Miss Ming took Qi Niang's hand, held it and said, "Qi Niang, I see that you are a dog biting Lu Dongbin." I understand what Sister Jinyao means, she calls you 'aunt', just to let you follow her to enjoy happiness. After all, you're your age, and those good looks are old, but I haven't seen anyone willing to marry you home. I see, you might as well just follow Jin Yao, and when you get old, you will be idle (rì), and how good it is to have someone to accompany you. ”

Su Jinyao nodded when she heard this, and said, "That's what I mean, or Miss Ming understands me." ”

Qi Niang listened, sighed, and said, "Yes, you got to the point." Qi Niang, in my life, has lived a life of seeing people with a smile and ushering in a (rì) son. Since I entered the garden at the age of twelve, I became a little girl who served tea and poured water; When I was fifteen years old, the cruel grandmother sold me to a client in his fifties for twenty taels of silver; Until I became a red card girl, I made the first card in the garden, and then I jumped to this red sleeve shop, and finally became a grandmother here. ”

Speaking of this, Qi Niang raised her head and smiled bitterly, and said, "In my life, there are countless men in front of me. Just before I got sick, men came around me and told me how they liked me. However, I am sick and can't serve those men, which one of them will come? Forget it, I'm tired, it's time for me to rest. But I really don't feel at ease when the Red Sleeves Workshop is handed over to others, you girls follow me, I can still let you eat and dress warmly, make clothes for you regularly, and make jewelry, so that you can all follow the rich and considerate guests as much as possible, so as not to suffer. But from now on, I really can't control it. ”

After speaking, Qi Niang tightened Miss Ming's hand, pulled Su Jinyao over, and said, "I can hand it over to Miss Ming in the Red Sleeve Workshop, and I can rest assured that I will give it to her." She is a bright and sleek person, and she has a good relationship with the girls. It is also a top brand, and there is no shortage of contacts and paths, (tǐng) is good. Jinyao girl, if you don't dislike it, my aunt really wants to follow you. Whether it's a leaky house or a straw mat, I thought about it for a while to laugh without seeing people. Even if you sit under the eaves and watch the raindrops fall from the porch, watch the ants move and the magpies make nests, you don't want to **** live that bright and green (rì) child. ”

Ziruo is good

Qi Niang's words, Su Jinyao's heart was even more uncomfortable. But she took Qi Niang's hand, shook it hard, and said: "Auntie, what you said is not good, I took you over to enjoy happiness with me, why is it called a straw mat in the leaky house?" To tell you the truth, I bought a village outside Mingyang City, although it is not so gorgeous and rich, but it is also larger than this red sleeve place, more beautiful than the environment here, and there are no bright lights, only green willows and red flowers. There are not so many beautiful girls in the courtyard, they are all strong and capable little girls, Qi Niang, if you look at it, I will send you a face. You also call out the man's (rì) son for a few days. ”

"Flutter" Qi Niang and Miss Ming laughed when they heard it.

Qi Niang pointed at Su Jinyao with her finger and said, "In this case, you will say it as a girl." ”

As he was talking, he heard Ziruo's voice at the door: "I've only been walking for a while, why did I come back and hear which one was talking about raising noodles and calling for men?" ”

Miss Ming shouted, "Come in and see who's coming?" ”

"Who? Who else could there be? When I heard Qi Niang laughing, I knew that it was Sister Jinyao who was back. Ziruo said as she walked around the screen and walked in, carrying a bamboo basket in her hand, with a strange style (tǐng), but it matched her temperament very well, and it was very beautiful.

As soon as Su Jinyao saw this basket, she smiled and said, "Sister Ziruo, you are a limited edition basket in our store, if you want one or two pieces of silver, you may not be able to have the goods." ”

Zi Ruo raised the basket when she heard this, and said, "I just gave it to me from the girl from Xiao Nan." I will send her back for two days. She said that I looked good and walked around the street a few more times, and her business became better and better. ”

When Su Jinyao heard this, Xiao Nan was really enlightened, and she knew how to find a spokesperson to advertise the bamboo baskets she sold.

Zi Ruo said, put down the basket, and took out the medicine wrapped in a cloth inside.

The medicine was placed on the table, and Ziruo said to Su Jinyao: "Jinyao, you can talk about Qi Niang, if you are sick, you won't go to see it, just let me grab the medicine for her indiscriminately, just say it's pain relief." If you don't let me go to Anhetang, let me find a small pharmacy to grab medicine for her. Do you think you can take this medicine? ”

Su Jinyao walked over and picked up the medicine bag and opened it, grabbed the medicine inside and looked at it. With Su Jinyao's ability, as long as she sniffs with her nose, she will know what kind of medicine these are, what diseases can be cured, and whether they are good medicinal materials.

After reading it, Su Jinyao said: "It's also symptomatic, but just eating this effect is not the best." Qi Niang, I'll give you acupuncture in a while, and it won't hurt so much after the acupuncture. Take some more medicine and you'll be fine. ”

"Really? How can I be okay? Qi Niang suddenly seemed a lot more energetic, and said, "Jinyao girl, don't fool me." In fact, I know in my heart that I am afraid that my illness will not happen. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, how can you say no if you have a stomachache? So if you can know the illness (qíng), what else do you need a doctor to do? Su Jinyao said and sat back to the side (chuáng), took out the silver needle, and said: "I'll talk to you while giving you the needle, it doesn't hurt, and time flies." When I'm done with acupuncture, you can go down and pick up customers today. ”

"Phew, bah, bah." Qi Niang listened to a few sips and said, "The little girl has no virtue, what kind of guests do I take when I'm old?" ”

"It's me who has a bad mouth, I'm wrong. I mean, after you have acupuncture, you can go down and greet guests. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she gently pressed Qi Niang's stomach again, and said, "However, my stomach is swollen like this, I can't solve it all at once, I have to treat it slowly." If a guest asks Qi Niang if you are happy, how can you answer? ”

"Go, little girl, I'm too lazy to take care of you." After Qi Niang finished speaking, she looked up and said to Ming Girl and Zi Ruo: "You two just sit next to me (shēn) and listen to me well." ”

Miss Ming and Miss Ziruo agreed, and they both sat down and listened quietly.

Qi Niang looked at them and said to Ziruo first: "Ziruo, you are older, follow me earlier." Now you have to be good, Qi Niang, I won't keep you, I just told Jinyao and Ming'er that this red-sleeved workshop is called Ming'er. ”

Ziruo listened, nodded, and said, "I know that Miss Ming is more suitable than me to take over the Red Sleeve Workshop." My (xìng) son is still too quiet. ”

Qi Niang nodded, and said: "However, if you have followed Qi Niang for so many years, Qi Niang will not treat you badly." Your contract for selling (shēn) is until the end of the year, and it stands to reason that you have to do it at the end of the year. But now that Qi Niang and I are going to be good, you and the contract will end today (rì). From now on, you are no longer the girl of the Red Sleeve Fang, Ziruo, you are free (shēn). ”

Hearing Qi Niang say this, Zi Ruo was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Qi Niang blankly, and then at Su Jinyao and Miss Ming, a little unable to come back to her senses.

Qi Niang grabbed Ziruo's hand, shook it vigorously, and said, "Qi Niang has nothing to give you, the jewelry in my makeup box, you pick a few pieces and take them away, it can be regarded as me leaving you a memory." ”

When Ziruo heard this, tears suddenly fell. grabbed Qi Niang's hand and said, "Qi Niang, don't I have to be good until the end of the year?" It's not here yet, it's a few months away. I'm not leaving, will I stay with you more? ”

"Silly girl, can you leave this fire pit, are you still reluctant? Let's go, don't look back when you get out of this door, and if you find an honest man in the future, you will get married. If you can't find it, start a small business by yourself, be a proprietor, and be safe and stable. ”

Ziruo burst into tears, looked at Qi Niang and said, "Don't say that, didn't Sister Jinyao say that she could cure you?" If you don't wait for Qi Niang, let's make a deal together. ”

Qi Niang laughed when she heard this, pinched Ziruo, and said, "I've been a grandmother for you, I've been doing it for so long, I don't want to entangle you anymore." In the future, you can live by yourself, and you can be as comfortable as you are. I promised Jinyao that I would follow her to enjoy Qingfu. In my life, I have earned some money, and I have no children, so I don't have to think about buying and selling enough to cover the rest of my life. ”

Ziruo listened, tears kept flowing, and the makeup painted on her face was spent. Then she looked at Su Jinyao again and said, "Sister Jinyao, I'm ...... All of a sudden, my heart was empty. I'm afraid that if I go out of this door, there will be nowhere to go. ”

Su Jinyao was applying a needle, stabbing a piece of silver into the ** position, then glared at Ziruo, and said, "Look at your little bit of talent, will you enjoy your freedom?" Don't forget, you promised me to do things for me. I'm also planning to find a young and beautiful hostess to help me open a big inn. So, after you are good, you don't want to hide from it. ”

Shares are given to you

Ziruo heard Su Jinyao say that she should be the proprietress of the inn, so she wiped a handful of tears and said, "Okay, I'm willing to go." Sister Jinyao, I know you can do it, and you have a lot of business under your hands. Didn't we also say that we were going to partner up? I'll go with you. ”

Su Jinyao understood that although Ziruo was used to seeing the scene, **** lived a life of ushering in the (rì) son who was sent to. But in fact, I haven't gone out much in this red sleeve workshop, and the above things are all on the top of Qi Niang, she is actually a girl who is only responsible for performing arts and welcoming customers.

Now that Ziruo is good, once she walks out of this red sleeve workshop, she will feel a little inferior because of this (shēn) part, and she will also be a little at a loss in the face of society suddenly.

Su Jinyao can arrange a place for her to live in peace of mind, she can do it with peace of mind, and she will slowly adapt to the new environment, and she will become like a fish in water.

Ziruo's matter (qíng) was temporarily settled, and Qi Niang turned to Miss Ming and said, "I, the grandmother of the Red Sleeve Fang, actually want to look at the face of Zhao Dadong's family, and you also know this." ”

Miss Ming nodded and said, "Qi Niang, although we all know that the Red Sleeve Workshop is still the majority of the shares of Zhao Dadong's family, but your status in the Red Sleeve Workshop is something that we girls all agree with." So we all only recognize you as Qi Niang, and listen to you the most. ”

Qi Niang nodded and said, "Qi Niang knows, you all still sell me face." Now I'm going to leave and hand over the Red Sleeves Fang to you, but if you don't hold something in your hand, you will inevitably be arrested by Zhao Dadong's family. If there is any girl who is particularly scheming and envelops Zhao Dadong's family, I am afraid that the position of your red-sleeved grandmother will not be stable. Therefore, Qi Niang decided to give you the shares of Sancheng Red Sleeve Fang in my hand. ”

Thirty percent of the shares of the Red Sleeve Workshop are not a small amount. Even if Su Jinyao only has one percent of the shares, the income per quarter is a very considerable number.

Miss Ming was also moved when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Qi Niang, these thirty percent of the shares are almost all of your belongings, so I naturally can't take them for nothing." I now have more than 800 taels of silver in my hand, although it is not worth the 30% of the shares, but it is already all my belongings, which I will use for redemption (shēn) after preparation. Now that you have given me the shares, the money will be regarded as if I had bought it from you, so that you will not be able to say anything bad in front of other girls. No matter how much I have, I really don't have it. ”

Qi Niang nodded and said, "That's the truth, it's good if you understand." However, Qi Niang has another request, if you can agree now, I can give you this thirty percent of the shares. ”

Miss Ming said: "Qi Niang, you say, I just promise." ”

Qi Niang pointed at Su Jinyao and said, "This thirty percent of the shares are given to you so that you can take the girls of the Red Sleeves Workshop with peace of mind." These girls were all trained by me, and I also feel sorry for them, and I don't feel at ease when I hand them over to others. But if one day you don't do this mama, or for other reasons, you need money, and the shares in your hand can only be sold to Jinyao girl for eight hundred taels of silver. ”

When Su Jinyao heard this, the silver needle in her hand stiffened, and it stopped in the air for a long time and did not fall.

It can be said that Qi Niang's condition is really thoughtful for Su Jinyao, which means that the Red Sleeve Workshop will become her industry sooner or later.

Miss Ming smiled when she heard this, and said, "It should be, I know that Qi Niang is eccentric." However, Sister Jin Yao calls you 'Auntie', we can all hear that it is sincere, and your things are left to Sister Jin Yao, of course I have nothing to say. I am willing to make a note, if I leave the Red Sleeves in the future, or when I need money, I will definitely ask Jinyao if I want to buy it. ”

Qi Niang listened, nodded, and then said: "I have thirty percent of the shares in my hand, and Jin Yao still has one percent in my hand, and these forty percent of the shares add up, which is enough to affect the overall situation of the Red Sleeve Fang." So, Ming'er, you can rest assured, if you want to be this grandma, Zhao Dadong's family will not treat you well. ”

After Qi Niang finished speaking, she was already out of breath.

Su Jinyao, Miss Ming, and Miss Ziruo all understood that Qi Niang understood in her heart what she meant by arranging the future.

Su Jinyao said while giving Qi Niang the needle: "Okay, I see that my aunt's matter (qíng) is almost arranged, so don't worry about it anymore." I promise you'll feel better than you did before with these stitches. So, relax your mind and don't think too badly. ”

Qi Niang nodded and said, "Jin Yao girl, I have dealt with so many people in my life, and I have seen a lot of girls in my eyes." It's you alone, so I can't see through Qi Niang at all. But I know in my heart that you are not a simple girl, and it can be said that although I handed over this red sleeve workshop to Miss Ming, a heavier burden is on you (shēn). You can't just watch Miss Ming work here and not care about anything. ”
