Chapter 117: Big Business Comes to the Door
"That's okay, I just haven't been out for more than a month, it's time to go out and hang around, otherwise my old arms and legs won't work! Turn around and call the big pillar and the second pillar and help me to go with me. ”
......
The vegetables in the garden quickly sprouted, and in the blink of an eye, they became green.
Qi Zhuang dives every day to water vegetables, if the water is free, he goes to the vegetable garden to turn the soil and weed, and also gets the chicken manure in the chicken pen into the vegetable garden to make fertilizer.
With moisture and chicken manure, side dishes grow well.
The leaves of cucumber seedlings are the size of a palm, and you can wait for a while to climb up the shelf.
All the shallots had sprouted, and a row of small green seedlings swayed in the wind.
Looking at the success of a few days of hard work, Ruoshui's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Soon, they will be able to eat the vegetables they grow.
At this moment, the sound of a carriage suddenly sounded at the door.
A carriage stopped at the door of their chaimen.
A well-dressed uncle got out of the carriage.
He first glanced around, and then shouted inside: "May I ask if this is Qi Zhuang's home?" ”
Qi Zhuang went to the river to fetch water, and Ruoshui, who was tending to the vegetable garden, heard the sound and hurriedly ran over.
Through the fence wall, she stared at the visitor for a moment.
found that the face of the person who came was kind, and his face was full of kindness, not like he came to provoke and find fault.
So she hurriedly opened the wood door.
"This is Qi Zhuang's home, may I ask who you are?"
"I'm an official of the town's rich man's family. I heard that the spicy crayfish you make at home is very good. The rich man of our family will marry a concubine tomorrow and set up a feast. So he sent me to you to order fifty pounds of spicy crayfish. ”
Rich don't make bastards!
Ruoshui hurriedly invited Steward Zhou to the courtyard.
Steward Zhou didn't enter the house either, so he made it on the stone bench in the courtyard.
"This is a deposit of three taels of silver, and I must send fifty catties of spicy crayfish to the real Zhou family before noon tomorrow. Don't delay my lord's banquet! When the time comes, I will give you another three taels of silver. ”
Ruoshui hurriedly took the deposit of three taels of silver, "Okay, okay, Steward Zhou rest assured, we will definitely deliver the crayfish on time when the time comes!" ”
The people living in the mountain villages are poor, and at most two or three families have ox carts and donkey carts.
Only the rich could afford to use this carriage.
Therefore, as soon as the carriage entered the village, many bored people who were bored and eating melons ran to watch.
Through the fence courtyard wall, they could clearly hear what Steward Zhou said.
They watched as Steward Zhou took three taels of silver and gave it to Ruoshui.
And Steward Zhou also promised that there would be three taels of silver after the matter was done!
You can earn six taels of silver at once!
Everyone was stunned, envious and jealous.
I can't imagine that this shrimp that everyone dislikes can be sold at such a good price!
These six taels of silver can't be earned by someone who works hard all year round!
Ruoshui politely sent Steward Zhou away, and promised to deliver the crayfish on time tomorrow.
After the carriage left, the crowd had not dispersed, and there was a lot of discussion among the crowd.
Qi Zhuang carried a large wooden barrel in one hand and came back from the river.
When he saw so many people gathered in front of his house, his heart jerked.
Is someone coming to the door to bully his little daughter-in-law again?
He quickly threw down the bucket and ran away.
Fortunately, he saw Ruoshui standing outside the fence yard, holding a money bag in his hand, and the smile on his face was like a flower.
