Chapter 158: Road Encounter, A Familiar Scene

The lack of dividends in autumn made Du Niangzi a little surprised, and she couldn't help but say: "The clothes are naturally to be given, but the bonus is a bonus, these are two different things, and you don't need Mrs. to show up, you better accept it." 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】”

"Du Niangzi misunderstood, I don't look down on businessmen." Qiu Shi hurriedly explained, "Actually, I also worked as a hawker before I got married. ”

"Oh, Mrs. Ai has also been a businessman," Du Niangren said strangely: "I heard Mrs. Zhu say it yesterday, but I didn't expect it to be true."

Qiu Se said with a smile: "It's not a businessman, it's just that life is forced to beg for food." ”

Du Niangzi echoed with a smile, "Yes, it's not easy to make a living now, our ready-to-wear shop is too, the style is old, and now the business is not as good as day by day, it's not easy to see a new style and chase after it with a sad face."

"Pearl, go and bring that skirt to Mrs. Du." After Qiu Se ordered the pearls on the side, he apologized to Du Niangzi: "I just got it back yesterday, and I haven't had time to wash it, it may be a little dirty, don't mind."

"How come" Seeing that Qiu Se finally agreed to show the skirt to herself, Du Niangzi smiled happily.

After the skirt was taken, Du Niangzi ordered the maid ring behind her to take it, and then asked Qiuse, "Mrs. Ai, next is whether I take the clothes from the store or do you go to the store for a walk, in fact, you go to the store to walk around, next to the ready-to-wear shop and a rouge shop is also mine, there are several kinds of rouge sent from the capital, you see"

Autumn Colors shook her head, "I'm pregnant with a child now, and I can't wipe those things." ”

Du Niangzi smiled: "It's me who owes it to consideration, Mrs. Ai forgive me." Why don't I ask someone to bring your clothes to the house, and it won't be convenient for you to go out with your body in your arms. ”

"Don't worry, it's troublesome to take it, and the clothes you take are definitely not as good as the ones in the store, so let's go to the store and have a look, and then Du Niangzi will give me a discount on the face of me helping you," Qiu Se smiled.

"That's certain, even if Mrs. Ai picks, as long as you like it, I will give you all free orders today" Du Niangzi patted her chest and promised.

"If you really dare to say it, you're not afraid that I will empty your store," Qiu Se laughed and teased.

Du Niangzi smiled happily, "With Mrs. Ai's good idea, the store can quickly become popular when it is empty."

Qiu Se laughed, and then said, "Okay, Mrs. Du wait, I'll go change my clothes and come over." ”

"Okay." So, Du Niangzi sat in the lobby of the front yard while drinking tea and waiting for the autumn colors, while looking at the surrounding furnishings. The furnishings of the room are very ordinary, the tables and chairs and other things are made of ordinary elm, and some porcelain ornaments on the flower and wood shelves are also very ordinary, which is not as good as their own home, and it is really impossible to see that this is the home of a nine-grade official. is secretly slandering to himself, Autumn Color has changed his clothes and returned, and he couldn't help but be startled after seeing Autumn Color wearing.

"Cough" Du Niangzi cleared her throat and asked in surprise, "Mrs. Ai's clothes"

Qiu Se smiled: "Du Niangzi should also like this set of clothes, I think it can be a big seller" Qiu Se gave Du Niangzi the long skirt she wore yesterday, and today she is wearing a long gown and trousers, and the yellow-green cotton shirt looks very bright, but this style is a little too casual, I am afraid that only the mother-in-law who burns the fire in the kitchen wears this

Du Niangzi shook her head, and asked puzzledly: "Why is Mrs. Ai dressed like this, don't you have a skirt like yesterday?"

"This kind of gown is fatter and comfortable to wear, and the skirt was changed yesterday, and it's gone."

"Then Mrs. Ai should put this dress on." Du Niangzi took the skirt from her maid ring and handed it to the autumn color.

"No need." Autumn color waved his hand, "I have to worry about stepping on the corner of the skirt from time to time when wearing a skirt, it is not as convenient as this." ”

Du Niangzi said with a smile: "Mrs. Ai's idea is really special, now even the daughters of ordinary poor families are trying to get a skirt to wear, but Mrs., as an official, dislikes this skirt." ”

"It's not that it's inconvenient." Autumn Colors corrected her, "Alright, let's go quickly." ”

Under the urging of Qiu Color, Du Niangzi finally stopped worrying about such an indecent question that should not be worn as Mrs. Ai, and went out together.

The carriage is spacious, and two-thirds of the seats are arranged in a soft collapse, and you can lie directly on your side when you take off your shoes, which is indeed much more comfortable than your own mule cart.

Du Niangzi took out another quilt from the dark pavilion behind the carriage and spread it on Qiu Se, "Mrs. Ai has a body, so be careful." ”

"I'm not that delicate." Autumn casually talked with Du Niangzi, "What is the name of Du Niangzi's ready-to-wear shop?"

Du Niangzi smiled, "Mrs. Ai's days in Qingchuan Mansion are short, if you stay longer, you may know, my family's ready-to-wear shop is called Yunxiangge, which occupies almost half a street on the left side of Fuqing Road."

Autumn color was startled, "Yunxiang Pavilion is a handkerchief that sells for one or two silver Yunxiang Pavilion" before she heard the eldest lady say in Huangfu, Yunxiang Pavilion is the largest garment shop in the entire Qingchuan Mansion, the clothes inside are the best quality silk and satin, it is said that they are all from Yunnan Shudi and other places to transport the best goods, than those Jingguan wives are not much worse, and Yunxiang Pavilion has skilled embroiderers, cut clothes and handmade styles are excellent, so the price is extremely high, but there are still people like to buy.

"Ah, Mrs. Ai knows" Mrs. Du was a little surprised.

"Well, I've heard of it." Qiu Se nodded, "But I heard that it wasn't Master Du who took care of Yun Xiang Pavilion, how did he become Du Niangzi?"

"It's no secret, my father passed away two years ago." Du Niangzi's expression suddenly became a little gloomy, and then continued: "After the death of my father, the people around me have changed, and the merchants who supply the fabric of Yunxiang Pavilion have also changed, and the embroidery girls in the pavilion have also begged to go, I have made a lot of efforts, although I left a few embroidery girls, but the cost of purchase has increased a lot, and because the style of clothes in the pavilion is old, the number of patrons has gradually decreased, and I just saw the lady's skirt and rashly begged to go to the door." ”

Qiu Se nodded quite understandingly, no wonder she would send money at her wife's garden party, it turned out that she wanted to find some big people to patronize her ready-to-wear shop to advertise ah" I understand that women will naturally be looked down upon when they do business. ”

Du Niangzi smiled indifferently: "I don't care if I'm white-eyed, but I don't want my father's life's hard work to be wasted." ”

"No, there is a way, where there is a will, there is a way, and Du Niangzi will definitely carry forward Yunxiang Pavilion."

"Then I'll borrow Mrs. Ai's good words"

The two were talking and laughing, and suddenly, the carriage stopped, Du Niangzi was slightly stunned, and asked her maid, "Xiaoluo, what's going on outside?"

Yahuan, who is called Xiaoluo, said: "Lady, there is a group of people in front of you in the middle of the road. ”

"Let's see how we come back, this is the intersection of Fuqing Road."

"Yes." Xiao Luo jumped off the wheel, squeezed into the crowd, and came back after a while, "Lady, it seems that there is a little girl inside who sells herself to bury her father, and the people around her are watching the excitement." ”

"Ah, sell yourself to bury your father" The autumn color was a little surprised, "I still think I'll go to the tooth shop for a while."

Du Niangzi hurriedly stopped her, "If Mrs. Ai wants to buy someone or go to a serious tooth shop, the people there are good, it's better than buying these unknown ones to go back, I know a tooth woman who is very reliable, call her over in a while." ”

"It's fine." Qiu Se thought about it and felt that it was better to buy someone from the dental shop.

So, the coachman got out of the car and drove the people who were blocking the road while leading the horse, and slowly walked towards Fuqing Road. And Qiu Shi curiously picked up the curtain and looked out at the girl who sold herself to bury her father.

Du Niangzi smiled: "This kind of thing will often happen here, and sometimes there will be two people who sell their bodies at the same time to fight in order to rob a good master's family."

However, when Qiu Se saw the development of events in the field, he suddenly felt a little familiar, and couldn't help shouting to stop, and the driver outside subconsciously stopped the car.

"Mrs. Ai, don't look at them pitiful, there are many people who are pretending, but they are actually thieves with unclean hands and feet." Du Niangzi thought that Autumn was soft-hearted, and she was busy persuading on the side.

Qiu Se pulled her cuffs and pointed to the field, "Du Niangzi, look, is that woman the girl's mother?"

Du Niangzi looked at the autumn color fingers, and saw that the girl kneeling on the ground was thirteen or fourteen years old, and her appearance was neat, but she was wearing tattered clothes, and there was a straw mat next to her, on which a person was lying with a rag covering her head and couldn't see the specific situation, and a middle-aged woman in her thirties and forties was wearing rough silk clothes and was holding the girl and howling, "My hard-working daughter, my mother has found you."

Not only the autumn color, but even the people watching the excitement next to him didn't believe it, "I said that if she were your daughter, why would you dress so well, but she would sell herself"

The woman raised her face and explained to everyone: "This is my daughter, she was abducted by traffickers when she was a child, and I thought I would never see her again, alas" Before she finished speaking, the woman suddenly took a few steps back with her arm on one side, and glared at the girl on the ground angrily, "Girl, how can you bite me, I'm your own mother."

But the girl suddenly stood up, pointed at the woman and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, my mother died when I was young, which crazy woman are you, you came here to confess your daughter?"

The woman didn't expect the girl to be so strong, she was stunned for a moment, and then cried: "I'm your mother, can you still recognize your daughter, what's the benefit of me lying to you, I'm really your mother, there is a black mole the size of a soybean under your right buttocks, don't believe it." ”

The girl's face turned red all at once, and her breasts fell together but she could not speak.

The onlookers next to him exploded, and the second-rate man whistled and coaxed: "Yes, just look at it, I'll show you if you take off your pants" caused everyone to laugh.
