"He can see it accurately in the year of disaster, otherwise how can he have such the ability to call the wind and rain?" Xiao Chu said, Wu Sanniang sighed: "He has a capable guy in his hands, he is the most stingy, this stinginess is stingy with himself." For these capable people, Zheng Er is generous. ”

The three ladies told Xiao Chu one by one: "Gao Huan, Shi Xian, Chen Qi, these are all old people who have been in his family for three generations, and everyone's house is not small, and it is even more magnificent than the Zheng family's big house." If it's a two-bedroom house, it's actually still old. ”

Zheng Yi appeared in front of Xiao Chu's eyes, and the house of Zheng Erguan next to him was small, old, leaky and leaky.

"How can he see it accurately?" Xiao Chu asked Wu Sanniang again. Wu Sanniang also shook her head: "Grain rice is used by everyone's family, and this business can stand, but it is actually the most profitable." Our family wanted to do this a few years ago, but it turned out to be a loss, and later I also suspected that it was a good thing that Zheng Er, an old thing, did, but I couldn't find his handle, and now if I don't do it, I don't know the trick inside. ”

Xiao Chu was just suspicious: "This year's wind and rain are smooth and the harvest year, why is the price still rising?" Wu Sanniang also remembered: "That's right, I don't understand." ”

As he was talking, Chu Huaixian came back with a body of snowflakes. Remove the snow under the porch, and there is still it on the corner of the jacket. He looked at Xiao Chu with a radiant look: "Did you sleep well yesterday?" ”

Xiao Chu saw that he could still ask, so he pouted and said, "Okay," Wu Sanniang looked at her face, and hurriedly stood up and said, "I've been here for a while, and I'm going back." ”

came out and went straight to the third lady, and hurriedly shouted to her: "Go and see, my aunt and uncle seem to be angry." The third lady didn't believe it: "The two of them are about to become the most harmonious pair in the mouths of relatives, you don't know that Huaixian is usually so considerate to her, and the third master has never been." ”

"I really see it, I'm here to ask you to take a look." Wu Sanniang urged the third lady to go, but the third lady refused to go and let a girl go to see it. The girl came back and said, "The son accompanied the master into the palace last night, and now he has fallen asleep." The third lady smiled at Wu Sanniang: "How?" They didn't fight. Afraid that Wu Sanniang would not give up, she asked again: "What about the young lady?" ”

The girl laughed: "The young lady also fell asleep." ”

Mrs. Chu San also laughed, let the girl go out, and smiled at Mrs. Wu San and said, "What I said is true." Wu Sanniang recited a Buddha: "But it turned out that I went to the palace last night, as soon as I entered this door, I asked that the son was not there last night, and then came in to see our aunt and grandmother with a bad face, my heart, dripping and turning." ”

"Third sister-in-law, I know your idea is not finished yet, listen to my advice, my nephew and daughter should get married, let's get married quickly." The third lady said with a smile: "The eldest brother and sister-in-law didn't mention the matter of taking a concubine for Huaixian, so you don't have to say it." ”

Wu Sanniang was not embarrassed, but just showed a thoughtful look, thinking about Chu Huaixian in her heart: "Then he's too bitter." The third lady laughed: "You have this heart, find two more for the third brother." ”

Not only does Xiao Chu think more about herself, but others also think more about her. Xiao Chu, who was forced by Chu Huaixian to sleep on the bed, woke up after a while, put his body on Chu Huaixian's body, and smelled the breath on his body.

Nearly noon, Chu Huaixian woke up and settled accounts with Xiao Chu: "It's not a flowery pug, what do you smell on me?" Xiao Chu complained: "Then you can also fall asleep." Chu Huaixian yawned sweetly: "Why bother with you." Xiao Chu went to the bed, closed his eyes and recuperated.

"On such a cold day, it should be a red-sleeved mandarin quilt, you have a body, I am really lonely." Chu Huaixian muttered. Xiao Chu rolled his eyes and looked at him: "What else?" ”

"My parents love me the most, why don't they give me a considerate person," Chu Huaixian smiled with white teeth, turned his head and asked Xiao Chu: "Mother-in-law, have you mentioned your sisters' affairs again." Xiao Chu's face darkened.

Chu Huaixian got up: "You can get up too, eating in bed may not be good at restraint, I sleep, you have to accompany me, I want to eat, come and accompany me." ”

Xiao Chu got up and went to eat with him without saying a word. Her face was as heavy as water, and Chu Huaixian was smiling. The two of them ate the meal "without saying a word", and they were still sitting opposite each other on the couch. Xiao Chu took the needle that Xiaoyi dropped and pointed at it, Chu Huaixian was sitting and fiddling with his chess pieces.

"Young lady, Zhao is here." Chunshui replied, and Chu Huaixian snickered: "It's good for you to raise a fetus and work less." Xiao Chu glanced at him: "You also know that I raise a baby." ”

Chu Huaixian was extremely relaxed: "Everyone knows that you have a baby." As soon as the words were spoken, Chunshui said again: "The old man calls the son." Chu Huaixian agreed, got up and walked over, first kissed Xiao Chu's forehead gently, and then said with a smile: "If I don't come back at night, you will go to bed earlier alone." ”

Looking at his figure and going out, Xiao Chu suddenly pouted and wanted to cry. Chunshui came in and reminded again: "Zhao Jin is outside." Xiao Chu came back to his senses and said to Chunshui: "Let him come down to the window." ”

Chunshui came out to pass the word and led Zhao into the window. Zhao Jin looked at the woodcarved window in front of him, the girl in this room must be diligent, and there is nothing on the window that is not clean.

The young lady is not what it used to be, and when she sees that people don't want to change their clothes, she asks people to go to the window to reply. Just thinking about it, Xiao Chu's voice came from the window: "You are the old steward who has handled Gumi, how are you asking outside?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, this year's grain rice is a bumper harvest in several places, and the price increase in Beijing is actually two different things from the bumper harvest of grain rice." Zhao Jin said, Xiao Chu didn't understand: "So where did all this go?" ”

Zhao Jin said: "Some are in the warehouse, and some are going to the ocean." Mrs. Chu asked carefully: "New rice is expensive, Chen rice is expensive?" Zhao Jin said: "Of course, it's the new rice expensive." ”

"Then why is it that this is only two months before the autumn harvest, and the price of old rice has risen." Xiao Chu asked again, and Zhao Jin opened his mouth: "Young lady, hasn't the price of this new rice also increased?" ”

Xiao Chu smiled; "The harvest of new rice should be parity, and the old rice rose in the harvest year, so what about the new rice, did it go to the foreign countries?" I don't know what Zheng Erguan's idea is in the gourd.

Zhao Jin felt that it was not important in his heart, and he couldn't figure out what the young lady wanted to ask. He could only answer based on the facts in front of him: "There are not many new rice, but people buy old rice." If you buy more, the price will naturally increase. ”

There was no sound in the window for a long time, Xiao Chu put his fingers on his lap, silently calculating. When Zhao Jin thought she was asleep, Xiao Chu opened her mouth again and said slowly: "You go." ”

Zhao Jin was asked so much that he couldn't reply, so he hurriedly left.

Xiao Chu in the room couldn't think of Chu Huaixian for a while, but he squinted his eyes and wondered what Zheng Erguan meant?

New rice is the price of new rice, and old rice is the price of old rice. If the new rice is not sold, the old rice will be sold first. Even if the warehouse is cleared, should the price be reduced? The harvest year is regarded as a half-disaster year to do business, Xiao Chu can't understand in his heart, does he keep so much new rice for half a year to become old rice?

Zhao Jin said that Xinmi went to the ocean, which was a prevarication. Speaking of going to and from abroad, Xiao Chu remembered the Lou family. In this line, the Lou family knows best, and you have to ask the Lou family.

Because I don't want to look for Chu Huaixian, and he is looking for his father-in-law, it's best not to look for him at this time. Xiao Chu asked people to look at Chu Huaide: "See if Gongzi De is not at home?" ”

Chu Huaide has also been courteous recently, and Aunt Zhang is even more attentive. Of course, Xiao Chu didn't bring Aunt Zhang into the role, even if she asked, Xiao Chu didn't tell her.

Thinking of asking Chu Huaide to inquire about the Lou family's going abroad several times a year, there will not be only one caravan going abroad for two or three years before coming back. It should be more than one caravan going out, and what kind of goods are being put in.

It is not easy for outsiders to ask these words, but it is very easy for Chu Huaixian, just invite the officials of Lou to ask; Chu Huaide is also easy to ask, just ask the sons of the Lou family in the chat.

At this time, Chu Huaide was stomping his feet in the room and losing his temper, scolding the Lou family: "What do dogs look at people's things and treat me as something!" Aunt Zhang was angry with him, and when she saw that he was scolding, she interrupted him: "I told you a long time ago that the Lou family is not good, you don't listen to me, and now it's too late to scold." ”

"One day let them know how good I am, and then they will be afraid of me!" Chu Huaide was so angry that his face turned pale. Aunt Zhang turned half of her body to the side and didn't want to care about him, but she couldn't ignore him, so she slowly asked, "How do you know?" ”

Chu Huaide had a gray face: "Did Lou Dayou tell me, or is he a true friend, he came to me because he was angry." Aunt Zhang was dismissive: "They are all members of the family, and it is not good for others to come out of a good place." That girl is not good, first began to say that you are looking for death and life, and now I heard that the young lady has it, and the family wants to give her to the eldest son, and she is willing? ”

"Wait, do you say that again?" Chu Huaide listened with some realization. Aunt Zhang said slowly: "This kind of family, compared to the Chen family who is engaged to you, is heaven and earth, don't do it." You are a pig's braincase, when she wanted to marry you, she said that she would guard you for a lifetime, you believed it, and begged the eldest prince to help you as a concubine. The big official in that building is the eldest son I met because of you. ”

Aunt Zhang was angry, walked over and pointed her finger on Chu Huaide's head, and said with hatred: "They want to give it to the eldest prince now, if I were you, I just didn't want her." A woman, not to mention the three chastity and nine martyrs, must also start from the beginning. Now there is this saying, when she was observing the festival for you, who forced her to say it! ”

As soon as Chu Huaide heard the news, he only had the beautiful Lou girl in his mind. In the middle, I went to Lou's house as usual, and I saw it twice in the middle, and Mr. De swore again, saying that after getting married, a bowl of water would be flat.

The eldest prince of Chu thinks that the bowl of water of his wife and concubine is uneven, and in the eyes of Prince De, he will talk about it after he says that it is level.

Chu Huaide, who came back angrily when he heard Lou Dayou say this today, only had Miss Lou in his heart. scolded the Lou family just now, but now that she has been enlightened by Aunt Zhang, Chu Huaide has found a glimmer of life: "Auntie, you are right, Miss Lou is forced by her family!" ”

Aunt Zhang looked back angrily: "My silly brother, when can you open your eyes and see more clearly." It's just that there is a big building, and it's not a good thing! He didn't come to hold grievances for you, he came to say to you, this person has nothing to do with you in the future. ”

Aunt Zhang guessed right.

But Chu Huaide didn't believe it. was discussing this matter, and the girl in Xiao Chu's room came to invite: "The young lady said that there is a word that will not be, the son is at the master's place, please take a look." ”

Mrs. Chu, who can earn money by herself, has a son under her knees, and is pregnant with another one came to invite, Aunt Zhang hurriedly agreed: "Let him go now, and if you say anything about inviting or not, just call him." Pushed Chu Huaide out with both hands, pushed him two steps away, and dragged Chu Huai back, gave him all the clothes and belts, and explained to him: "Go and call someone, remember to talk, your sister-in-law has money in her hands, if you like it, maybe like your eldest brother, she will give you a hundred taels of silver a month." ”

Chu Huaide was proud, and just wanted to say that the eldest brother gave one hundred and fifty taels this month. When the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them in time. Aunt Zhang sent Chu Huaide outside the room all the way and watched him and the girl go over. Suddenly slapped his thigh: "It's bad, I didn't explain it to him if it matters." What can I do? ”

Aunt Zhang was in a hurry in the courtyard. Chu Huaide is still a child, and his mouth is not too tight. He is angry with the Lou family, if he goes to see the young lady and tells the Lou family's words, what will he do?

This is a thing that makes the young lady who raises the fetus angry, and makes the eldest prince angry. Aunt Zhang was so anxious that she turned around a few times before she remembered that she could catch up and tell Chu Huaide to say less about it.

When she hurriedly caught up, she trotted slowly, until she chased Chu Huaixian's courtyard, and only saw Chu Huaide's back entering.
