Chapter 149: Opposition
In the warehouse, Chu Yuqin counted the goods according to the number on the order form.
After the inventory, dozens of extra bottles of perfume were found.
"This is...... A plum blossom-scented perfume? Is my cousin newly concocted? ”
The bottle has the word plum blossom written on it.
"It's not."
Su Huiniang pushed Chu Yulan next to her.
"It was made by Lan'er. You smell it, and it will blow your mind. ”
Chu Yuqin was surprised.
Chu Yulan usually behaves in a proper manner, but she does not show any special talent in perfumery.
She opened the bottle, put a drop on the back of her hand, and put it between her nose and sniffed it.
"Not bad. The taste is very light, and many ladies like this taste. According to the old rules, Lan'er has a reward of one hundred taels of silver. ”
"No need. I don't worry about food or clothing, and I'm not an outsider, what reward do I want? ”
Chu Yulan spoke shyly.
"If you don't want this money, and my cousin will say the same thing next time, won't it be difficult for me? Even if it's a sister, it has to be settled. This is a new fragrance, and many people will definitely like it by then. Is the value you create equal to a hundred taels of silver? ”
"Keep it! Find a place to save it for a dowry later. Xiao Yu was teasing her beside her.
"Auntie, I'm still young!" Chu Yulan was easily shy, and her face was suddenly flushed. "If you want to save the dowry, my cousin will save it, so I don't want it."
Su Huiniang showed a bitter look.
"I'm a divorced woman, who else would want it?"
"What nonsense? Hasn't Brother Shi been coming to you a lot lately? Last time, I saw him give you a hairpin. ”
Chu Yuqin said.
"Of course, I'm not saying that my cousin should choose Brother Shi. Just wanted to tell you that you are getting better and better now, and there is no shortage of good men to show affection. ”
Yuqin was right. You are getting more and more beautiful and outstanding now, you should choose a good husband for yourself, and you don't have to make a decision in a hurry. Except for the stone, several families in the village are asking about you, but they just don't tell you. Mother knows that those people have taken a fancy to the craft that your cousin taught you. With this craft, you will not have to worry about food and clothing in this life. That kind of ill intentions, let's not consider it. You can always find someone who is sincere. Xiaoyu also comforted Su Huiniang.
Su Huiniang is much more confident than when she first came. Just now, I just complained a few words casually, but I didn't really feel that I had to find a man to marry.
"I see. You don't have to worry about me. I've figured it out now. In fact, I don't care if I marry or not. It's nice to be like this now. ”
Su Huiniang hugged Xiao Yu's arm and raised a sweet smile.
"I am willing to stay with my mother all the time, and I also make perfume and various skin care products with my cousins, and I feel that I am very valuable when I make the same thing."
"Cousin, I want you to follow along and learn about the business in the store. If I can't keep up, you can help me. Although you can also buy a few servants to help, but people's hearts are unpredictable. It's better to leave such an important matter to your own people. ”
"No problem! Tomorrow I will go to the city to study. Don't dislike me for being stupid. Su Huiniang agreed.
Chu Yuqin finished counting the goods that Zheng Yuanheng needed, and then ordered the servants to carry them into the car.
She originally planned to send it to the Zheng Mansion in person, but she saw Chu Dashan stop her.
"Big girl."
Chu Yuqin turned around, saw Chu Dashan's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and stopped.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
"You've been so busy lately, our whole family hasn't eaten together in a long time. Can you stay tonight, Dad has something to say. ”
"Okay."
Chu Yuqin agreed without hesitation.
"You send this batch of goods to the Zheng Mansion and personally hand them over to Zheng Gongzi. If you don't see Zheng Gongzi, take the goods to the store and hand them over tomorrow. ”
Except for Zheng Yuanheng, she didn't believe anyone in the entire Zheng family. Although he cooperated with the Zheng family, his wariness of the Zheng family has never decreased.
After arranging the goods, she walked towards Chu Dashan and took his arm.
"Dad, did you miss me?"
Chu Dashan is introverted and honest, even if he is his own daughter, he can't say such a sensual thing.
He nodded sheepishly.
"I was negligent and didn't take into account Daddy's mood. It's been a busy time, and I probably haven't had dinner with you guys in half a year. ”
She was busy in the city all day long, and even Tong Jiarong followed the city. After all, this person is here for her food. So where she is, he is.
It's a shame to think about. She spends more time with Tong Jiarong than her family. My father and mother are honest people, and they are afraid of delaying her business, so they never ask her for anything.
In order to make up for his family, Chu Yuqin made a table full of meals.
Thinking that he hadn't seen Ling Shengyi for a long time, he went next door to invite him, but the latter was not there.
The Zhu Han brothers are still in the city. Only the Chu family and Su Huiniang's mother and daughter are here tonight.
"Big girl, there's something I want to discuss with you."
When they were full of wine and food, the servants took down the dishes and chopsticks.
Chu Dashan took out the local cigarette, rolled the tobacco tremblingly, and spoke to Chu Yuqin.
"I saw your third uncle's daughter today. The little girl is almost turning old, do you think we should send a heart over here? ”
Chu Yuqin looked up at Chu Dashan.
"Didn't you say it was okay at the beginning? We don't care about their business. Gift-giving is a trivial matter, and I am afraid that there will be trouble in the future. Forget it! ”
"But...... I see that your grandmother's clothes are still the same as last year's, and the little girl is also wearing tattered clothes. ”
"Dad, have you forgotten that we didn't have any clothes to wear. In the winter, we were still dressed in thin clothes. Not to mention the younger siblings. You feel sorry for others, and you don't see others feel sorry for us. What happened to Grandma in last year's dress? Who in the village isn't still wearing last year's clothes? ”
After Chu Yuqin finished speaking, he found that Chu Dashan's expression was gloomy, and he knew that he was serious.
She was a little annoyed, and said gently, "Did grandma say something to you?" ”
If it weren't for the Fang clan's tricks, Chu Dashan wouldn't suddenly sympathize with her. You must know that they have bowed their heads in the village and have never seen Chu Dashan so soft-hearted.
Hearing that Chu Kangze and his wife had left no regard for the Fang family and Chu Guangsong, Chu Zining and his daughter-in-law Lotus threw the child to the Fang family again and ran to the city by themselves.
If the two sons didn't come back with the silver, Fang's hands would definitely become more and more nervous. After all, Chu Zining almost spent all the money in her hand at the beginning.
At this time, it was very likely that the Fang clan would think of this unpopular son. As for whether she really regretted it or wanted to cheat some money from Chu Dashan, maybe only she knew it in her heart.
However, according to Chu Yuqin's guess, it should be the latter. If the Fang Clan had been so easy to find out with their conscience, they wouldn't have treated them badly for so many years.
"Nope. Your grandma didn't say anything. But that's why I feel like I'm too unfilial. ”
