Chapter Seventy-Four: I Can't Afford to Play
Pei Heng only felt that his eyelids jumped, he was in too much of a hurry to come back just now, he had just stepped into the yard with one foot in the front, and he heard a knock on the door with the other foot, worried that Qiao You was in a hurry, so he found a piece of clothes that were drying in the yard and changed them.
So, he threw the previous clothes into the cloat basin, he really didn't expect that this girl's eyes were so sharp.
"Pretty girl, you, you, why don't I change my clothes and show you, is it suitable?" Pei Heng said, and hurriedly stopped in front of Qiao You.
Qiao You was stunned, but put aside the clothes, nodded and pulled her into the house by Pei Heng, before entering the house, he saw that Chu Yi was cautiously trying to come in over the wall, and hurriedly glanced at Chu Yi, and dragged the person in.
Inside the house, Pei Heng quickly changed his clothes, and when he appeared in front of Qiao You again, Qiao You's eyes suddenly lit up.
Originally, she thought that this kind of clothes with simple eye pigments would be too old-fashioned for him, but now that she looks at it, she is really a good-looking person, and she looks good in whatever she wears.
The gray eyes on his body turned out to be a little elegant, and the embroidery of the sunset at the hem of the clothes set off the whole dress a little more angry, making Pei Heng look like a handsome boy.
Seeing the envy in Qiao You's eyes, Pei Heng couldn't help but feel proud, but his face was still as innocent as a child, and he leaned forward, "Beautiful girl, beautiful girl, look at me, am I good-looking?" ”
Qiao You chuckled twice, nodded hurriedly and said that it looked good.
This is, Chu Yi hurried in with some fruits, Qiao You saw this, and couldn't help but say, "Don't leave your son-in-law at home alone in the future, if you really have something urgent, send him to my yard, even if I am not with Qiao Ying, I can be a companion." ”
When she thought of it just now, if it was someone with a heart who knocked on the door, she couldn't stop being afraid, especially this Pei Heng, who was simply like a seven or eight-year-old child, without any sense of security at all.
Chu Yi hurriedly said yes, Pei Heng on the side was already happy in his heart, his little daughter-in-law was caring about him!
The two gossiped a few more words, seeing that it was not too early and it was time to go back to cook for the family, Qiao You hurriedly got up to say goodbye, Pei Heng did not leave her, Ling Chuyi sent people out, and he hurried back to the house, took off his clothes, and carefully put them away.
Qiao You followed Chu Yi out of the yard, and when he came, he inexplicably remembered the clothes in the Huanyi basin in his mind, and unconsciously glanced at the well, and saw that the Huanyi basin was empty.
"Where's the clothes you just put in here?" Qiao You asked, pointing to the place next to the well.
Chu Yi chuckled in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be fine, "Chu Yi just took it down and cleaned it, what is the girl asking for this?" ”
Being asked like this, Qiao You seemed a little embarrassed, she was a girl's family, and she had nothing to do when she went to someone's house to stare at the master's clothes, and she shook her head and said something.
But just as she was about to step out of the door with one foot, she turned her head again, "That dress belongs to your son-in-law?" ”
Chu Yi was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and Qiao You left the courtyard thoughtfully.
When she returned home, she couldn't remember where she had seen that dress, and when she was cooking, she turned around and saw Qiao Ying changing into the new dress she bought today, and she was walking in circles in the yard.
The skirt was stretched out like a loose dress, it was very good-looking, Qiao You couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips when he saw this, and he was very happy.
In her heart, she secretly swore that she must let Qiao Ying live a better life, and when she studied in a private school for a few years and had some ink in her stomach, she would find a good family for her, so that she could be regarded as worthy of the original owner of this body.
Early the next morning, Qiao You pulled his sister out of bed early.
Qiao Ying has never had the habit of sleeping late, but today......
She barely opened her eyes and saw that it was still dark outside the courtyard, and she didn't know how many days it would be.
"Sister, what is this for?" Qiao Ying saw that her sister was trying to put on her clothes, and she didn't know why.
"Qiao Ying, do you remember what my sister told you that I will send you to the school in a few days? Today is the first day of school, and from now on, you have to get up early to go to school every day, and you must study hard, you know? ”
Qiao You looked serious, she didn't want her sister to learn any great skills, as long as she could know words and generals, it would be fine.
Qiao Ying nodded obediently, in her understanding, her sister was the biggest woman she had ever seen, as long as her sister said, then she would listen.
After a simple wash, after a hasty breakfast, Qiao You led Qiao You to the school, where there were already female students reciting ancient poems in class.
Qiao Ying came to this kind of place for the first time, and she felt a little uncomfortable, so she hurriedly hid behind Qiao You, and called out to her sister glutinously, Qiao You saw this and pulled the person in front of her.
Originally, I was thinking about comforting a few words, but a deep man's voice suddenly came from behind him, "Miss Qiao came early." ”
The two sisters looked behind them at the same time, and saw that it was a man in his early twenties, holding several books in his hands, wearing a Confucian shirt, and an elegant temperament, he was the teacher of this school, Ji Yunwei.
"Mr. Ji, this is my sister Qiao Ying, I will study in your academy from now on, and I would like to ask Mr. for more advice." With that, Qiao You beckoned to his sister.
Qiao Ying was still stunned, she had never seen such a good-looking man in front of her, of course, except for the little fool next door, but the man in front of her looked erudite and talented, and she suddenly felt a little admiration in her heart.
"Mr. Ji......" Qiao Ying stepped forward and shouted timidly.
Ji Yunwei laughed heartily twice, "Don't be afraid, this is the place to read and learn words, if there is anything you don't understand, just ask me." After that, he said hello to Qiao You, and led the villain in.
After sending her sister away, Qiao You didn't have anything to do when she went back, so she decided to take a walk around the street now, and by the way, she saw if there was any shop she liked, but after walking for most of the day, she either felt that the geographical location was not good, or she felt that the rent was a little outrageous.
In the end, the person was tired and thirsty, so he went straight to a teahouse to sit down and rest.
"Hey, have you heard, the East Coast Wharf has started to strike again, you said that the boss is also a fool, in order to save those few dollars, the guys go on strike every day, and you have to lose a lot of money!"
While drinking tea, the sound of a few people chatting quietly came from the side, Qiao You hurriedly pricked up his ears and continued to listen without saying a word.
"It's not, that boss is a well-known iron rooster, you said that the boss of the Xicheng Wharf is also a food and lodging, and he also rewards the guy with some silver taels every month, although it is not much, but it has won the hearts of the people!"
Hearing this, Qiao You nodded secretly, but it seemed that the owner of this Xicheng dock was more good at doing business.
A group of people were not together, chattering for a long time, to the effect that the boss of the East Coast Wharf how to deduct the wages of the guys, even three meals a day only gave a few white steamed buns, and sometimes even the white steamed buns were saved, which caused the guys to complain.
Qiao You sneered and shook his head, thinking that this boss's business was estimated to not last long, so he took out a few copper coins from his pocket and slapped them on the table to leave, but at this time, a familiar figure sat directly on the seat next to her.
"Tsk, why are you everywhere, the banquet boy is very idle!" Qiao You glanced at Pei Heng, who was sitting opposite and pretending to be a banquet, and said stupidly.
Pei Heng was not annoyed, after all, his daughter-in-law spent thirty yuan to give him a dress yesterday, and in his eyes, that dress was already equivalent to a token of love.
"Look at you, didn't you ask me to find you a shop yesterday, I just came to tell you today, the shop has been found!" Pei Heng said with an unfathomable face, looking at it like that, there is still a bit of merit.
Qiao You didn't expect that the other party really took it to heart when he said it casually yesterday, and he found it so quickly, and his expression when he looked at Pei Heng eased a little.
"Take me there now?" Qiao Yo suggested.
After all, the silver ticket obtained from Yuan Ziyi will not make money on his body, so it is better to find a place as soon as possible, open a shop, and make money as soon as possible.
Pei Heng nodded, drank Qiao You's unfinished cup of tea, stood up and went downstairs first.
Qiao You looked at the other party's figure a little speechlessly, and he couldn't say what he felt in his heart, he always felt that he was being trivialized, what was going on?
followed Pei Heng around the corner, but finally stopped at the door of an inn on the side of the canal, Qiao You looked up and looked at the inn in front of him a little stunned.
"Young Master Yan, this is ......" Qiao You looked at the building in front of him in disbelief.
This place, she can't think of it, because on the opposite side of the canal, is Yuan Ziyi's Qionghua Pavilion, this place is a serious inch of land, if you want to open a restaurant here, just her six thousand taels, it is really not enough.
Besides, she is not stupid, she is not stupid, she is open opposite Qionghua Pavilion, she is not sure to grab business with Yuan Ziyi, she is just a common person, and she still thinks that Yuan Ziyi will give herself some business resources, if she opens here, let alone resources, I am afraid that she will be directly squeezed out of business.
"Forget about this place, I don't look very good." Qiao You glanced at Pei Heng with some disgust, it wasn't that she was dissatisfied with this place, but she really couldn't afford to play with that Yuan Ziyi.
No matter how delicious her dishes are, they can't compete with people's money!
