Chapter 184: Pickle Shop

Most of the people around the shop are small officials or shop managers in the government, etc., the family background is not rich, but the family background is hundreds of times stronger than ordinary people, it is the class that has spare money to improve the food and is reluctant to enter the restaurant. Therefore, the pickle shop is the best location here.

Of course, Pu Cao didn't expect this little shop to make much money every year, and in her plan, the most important role of this shop was to be a cover.

After the opening of the new restaurant, the silver taels she gets every month must be quite rich, and it is inevitable that she will spend or act more generously on weekdays, and the income of a vegetable field alone is not enough to hide people's eyes.

It's not that she is greedy and selfish, and she wants to completely hide the income of the new restaurant, but she really has to do it as a last resort. Now that her matter with Fang Jie is a certainty, she will have to part with the Zhang family in the future.

If Zhang Gui'er was kind and polite, she would naturally not treat him badly. But if there are some changes, she can't work hard for a few years in vain, and finally leave the house...

The magpie is a girl who likes Zhang Luo and is scheming, and has lived in Zhang's house for a few months, washing and cooking every day, and has long felt extremely boring. Now that I finally have this good opportunity, and I am doing a business that I have known since I was a child, I am simply overjoyed, and I can't wait for Dongzi, who was ordered to come to help, to buy all the supplies, and begged Uncle Jiang to send her to the shop early in the morning.

Dongzi's daughter-in-law, Xiaohong, was also familiar with the magpie before, and the master did not live in the garden on weekdays, and the maids were idle, so she asked a few to come over to help the magpie.

The little sisters haven't seen each other for many days, and they all feel very close. Holding hands and gossiping for a long time, at the end of the day, he rolled up his arms and sleeves to help wipe and pick up. There was a girl who was curious in her heart, and secretly asked the magpie how the new master treated her.

The magpie raised her chin and praised the grass as if there was nothing in the sky or the earth, which made all the girls joke, saying that she had been poured ecstasy soup by the new master. The magpies also argued, saying that they would always see the power of their master one day.

Pu herb is a generous character, and it is not suspicious of employing people, and suspects do not need it. When the magpie came, he carried a heavy purse, and everyone was busy until noon, when they were shouting to go back to the garden for dinner, but the magpie smiled and took out the silver money to invite Dongzi to Baiyunju to ask for six-colored dishes back.

The maids were naturally even more happy, sitting in the clean and tidy backyard, eating, drinking and laughing. This congratulated the magpie on becoming the shopkeeper, and the one who joked that she would not forget her sisters in the future, and it was lively for a while.

It was at this time that Uncle Jiang drove the carriage to the outside of the shop. The magpie thought it was Pucao who was not at ease, so he came to visit it in person. hurriedly took a group of sisters out of the shop, but I didn't want to see that it was the peony master and servant who got off the carriage. Although the two of them changed their clothes, the bruises on their faces were still clearly recognizable, and it was obvious that they had just been beaten by a fat beating.

At the beginning, his master often went to the flower building to drink and gossip with this top girl, but he turned a blind eye to them, the beautiful maids who were close to the water, which made many people hate so much that they couldn't sleep at night. Therefore, for this peony master and servant, no one in the garden knows it. At this moment, seeing them coming to the door in such an embarrassment, all the women were extremely puzzled.

The magpie frowned and walked up to Uncle Jiang, and asked with a smile, "Uncle Jiang, why are you here, but what do our lady command?" ”

Uncle Jiang nodded, handed her the wicker basket in the car, and said, "This is the food that Zhang Dongjia brought to you, as for these two people... has signed a three-year deed of sale, Zhang Dongjia said that he would send it to you, and asked you to do it without worrying about other things. ”

Deed of Sale, Laydown? Isn't that... Is it a rough maid?

The magpie was so startled that she didn't respond for a while, and the little sisters behind her could stuff an egg with their mouths open.

Even if the top brand of this flower building is no longer beautiful, even if the peony of Allure has passed away, but the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, when she was popular, everyone wanted to throw down a hundred taels of silver. Now it has been reduced to the point of selling himself to a small shop to be a rough maid, if this spreads, I don't know how many people will come to the door to visit curiously.

What's more, she had a "story" with her master who had to tell no matter what she said at the beginning, but today she went to the master's "new love" shop to help, which is really weird and weird...

Although the peony master and servant were half-hanging their heads, they also clearly felt the hot gaze that everyone projected on them, and the little maid seemed to be a little annoyed, raised her eyes and glared fiercely. Peony gave the magpie a salute first, and said in a low voice, "Little girl, no, the slave Peony has given the magpie steward a salute, and I hope the steward will take care of it in the future." ”

"Oh, good." The magpie was stunned and responded, then coughed dryly, straightened his back and said, "Since the master sent you to the shop, we will be a family in the future." As long as you work hard and don't think about useless things, I will naturally not embarrass you. Let's go, I'll take you to find a room and settle down first. ”

The peony master and servant rushed to Nangou Village before because they had the intention of living in Fang's house, so they brought a few packages with them. This sale of himself as a slave to a pickle shop is also very convenient, and it was loaded and sent over.

The magpie took the two packages and turned around and took the lead back to the backyard, Uncle Jiang closed the car door, Tong Dongzi nodded and turned around and walked away.

The maids in front of the shop were speechless for a long time, and finally looked at each other, and there was only one thought left in their hearts. Their future housewife is definitely not a good child, even a tricky character like Peony has been picked up so obediently, if they dare to have a crooked mind, I am afraid that the end will be even worse! When you go back, you must talk to the rest of the sisters, and if you don't talk about going all out to confront this future housewife in the future, at least you can't offend her...

Pu Cao didn't know that she sent a peony to the shop as a live advertisement, and she actually shocked the servants and maids of the Fang family by the way. At this time, she was busy picking up the silk and other things at home, because she was going to Li's house to recognize her relatives in five days, and some of the items were for her to buy by herself.

She already felt close to the Li family, and she had heard of the snobbery and long tongue of the people in Lijia Village, so she made up her mind to take the opportunity to save some face for the Li family. saved those broken-mouthed women, and used her identity as an abandoned woman to block the Li family.

Chunnier sent away her father, mother, brother and sister-in-law, and she was smiling from ear to ear for most of the day, and from time to time she had to get tired of Pucao for a while, which made Shanzi and Peach Blossom jealous, so she simply hugged her sister-in-law's arm one by one, pouting and refusing to let go.

Mrs. Chen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law heard the news early, and they all rushed to say goodbye, and helped come up with ideas by the way. Seeing Chunni and the two children so jealous, they all laughed so much that their stomachs hurt.

Pucao also couldn't cry or laugh, Wen Sheng persuaded the two children to go to the kang to write big characters for a while, and then drove Chun Nier to make tea for everyone, so that they could be clean for a while.

The peasant family recognizes the relatives, and what they pay attention to is the two words, filial piety. The godson and daughter not only have to prepare a generous gift, but also prepare a pair of shoes for the godmother and a hat for the godfather. Pucao needlework is not good, so I tried my best to make up for one or two in the fabric, so everyone carefully selected a piece of treasure pattern cloud brocade to make flat shoes, and Baifu brocade to make a staff hat.

Mrs. Chen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law helped cut the fabric, made a good appearance, and said goodbye and went back when she saw that it was getting late.

Pucao made two simple dishes, and after eating them with the two children, he began to fight with needlework. Peach Blossom sat by the oil lamp, and very obediently helped hand the needle and thread, which provoked Pucao to kiss and kiss her on the head.

The little girl heard everyone shouting during the day, although she was ignorant and didn't know the inside story, but she still vaguely guessed that there was something wrong in the family, so she carefully waited until the dead of night, and then asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, are you leaving?" Don't want peach blossoms? ”

Pu Cao was sad when she heard this, hurriedly threw down the needle and thread, and hugged the little girl for a long time. In the end, I swore that I would take her with me even if I went to the ends of the earth, which could be regarded as barely appeasing the little girl's heart.

After coaxing the two children to sleep, Pu Cao always felt that a big stone had been pressed in her heart, and she felt guilty and blamed herself, so she got up and went to Fang's house.

Fang Jie was also standing in front of the window to admire the moon for a while, and he was happy that he had a statement about the matter with Pucao, and for a while he looked forward to a better life in the future, the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to be frozen, and he couldn't take it back.

When he saw Pu Cao coming, he was naturally even more happy, and he was about to kiss her when he took her. I didn't want Pu Cao, but I turned my head to dodge, and quietly lay on his shoulder without speaking.

Fang Jie had long been accustomed to her eccentric, spicy and coquettish appearance, and suddenly saw her so quiet and naturally panicked, and hurriedly persuaded to inquire the reason. After listening to Pucao's story, he couldn't cry or laugh, and while doting on patting the back of his beloved woman, he swore that he would marry her in the future, whether he lived in the city or in the village, he would be happy with her, and he would not let her be separated from the children at half a step.

Pu Cao snuggled in his warm and generous arms, and when she heard his gentle words and persuasion, she gradually felt much better in her heart, and took the initiative to send a few fragrant kisses as a reward.

The two gossiped a few words again, and Pu Cao rushed back thinking that the two children were home alone.

Because the third day was the day of the opening of the new restaurant, Pu Cao injured his foot and couldn't sit in the back kitchen, so Fang Jie reluctantly returned to the city one day early.

Pucao occasionally took a wheelbarrow to go around the fields, and the rest of the time he did needlework seriously, perhaps because of his intentions, and after the shoes and hats were freshly baked, he was praised by everyone. Pu Cao's confidence increased greatly for a while, and she was thinking about unfolding Fang Jie's clothes, shoes and socks in a few days.

Fang Jie was busy in the city with the final arrangement before the opening of the restaurant, and took advantage of his free time at noon to go to the silver building to pick up a golden hairpin with five blessings for longevity, and then took Dongzi and sent it back to Pucao, saying that this was his intention as the future son-in-law of the Li family.

When Chunni saw the golden hairpin, she was so happy that she said that her mother had made a fortune, which made Pu Cao laugh non-stop.
