Banniang led the mother and daughter of the Zhou family to another hall to take a look, Mrs. Zhou was very satisfied with the bed, but because the bed was a man's room, the carving on the bed frame was not very suitable for the occasion, and before she spoke, Banniang had smiled and said: "Then it will be played according to the appearance of this bed, but the carving on it still has to be changed, just according to the carving of the step bed, what does Mrs. think?" ”

This is really a clever heart. Where is Mrs. Zhou still not satisfied?

These six hundred flowers are like good luck falling from the sky. Spend less money, but the things you can get, but they are better than those in the city, I don't know how many times, this set of family Shila to the husband's house, anyone has to praise a few words.

So it's settled. Banniang calculated the price carefully, according to the cost price, a total of six hundred and forty-eight yuan, which is also a festive number, Mrs. Zhou is very happy: "Early tomorrow, I will send someone to send money, don't pay any deposit, these six hundred and forty-eight yuan, I paid you at one time, you didn't make our money, and you can't ask you to advance money first." I'm very relieved that you're doing things, kid. ”

Now is the time when she is short of money, Banniang was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly thanked her: "I really thank Mrs. for her trust, my niece will definitely make Sister Tuesday's dowry so that Mrs. will have a bright face, and I will also let Sister Tuesday be at her husband's house, and she can get a few praises." ”

Turning it over politely, Banniang personally went to the baby room, picked out a few cute dolls, and gave them to Miss Tuesday, Miss Tuesday was happy with the dolls, and Mrs. Zhou shook her head, obviously she was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, but compared with the daughter of the Zeng family, she really looked like a child.

Banniang sent the mother and daughter of the Zhou family out of the door, and then returned to the shop, sat for a while, prepared the order, and sent it to the workshop and embroidery workshop, and saw Lu Qiqi leading a small servant into the door.

After serving the tea and retiring everyone, Banniang handed Lu Qiqi a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and asked, "Why did you come here at noon?" ”

Lu Qiqi smiled: "There will be something to do in a while, and I don't have time to look for you at night, so I rushed over." ”

As he spoke, he pushed the black lacquer box that the little servant put on the table in front of Banniang: "There are four thousand Jiaozi in it, which is all the assets of our three rooms." Then he joked, "If you are defeated and marry into my family in the future, you will have to drink the northwest wind." ”

Banniang glared at him with a smile: "If you really dare to marry me, I really dare to marry." Then he asked, "Why are there so many?" I originally estimated that it would be nice to have 3,000 runs. ”

Lu Qiqi smiled: "You know my family very well. There weren't so many, didn't you make a lot of money in the restaurant for most of the past six months? In addition, the income on the two seasons of the grange, as well as the original family, it is easy to take out 3,000 guan, and another 1,000 guan is the dowry given by the eldest aunt to Banniang in the future, and it will always belong to her. Siniang simply gave it to me. ”

With these 4,000 guan, plus the more than 600 guan sent by Mrs. Zhou, and the nearly 1,000 guan that I have in my own house now, plus the nearly 1,000 guan of the restaurant, this is nearly 7,000 guan. The original plan of 10,000 pieces of wood can also be bought to cause support.

Banniang thanked her sincerely, money is nothing else, except for Lu Qiqi, how can anyone else move out and lend her money in a big way.

Lu Qiqi said with a smile: "What does it matter to you and me, the whole Song Kingdom, and we are not so close, so Xie doesn't have to." You're just thinking about how to make me more money. ”

Banniang smiled: "I just worked hard, and I won't let you lose a point." ”

He asked Lu Seventeen what he was busy with at night.

Lu Qiqi smiled: "It's nothing, I see that Li Yong's kid has been very awkward in the past two days, and someone is still inviting me today, saying that he wants to ask me to go to the Ruyi Building for two drinks in the evening." ”

Li Yong has always had a banquet at Sheraton, why did he ask Lu Seventeen to go to Ruyi Building instead?

Seeing Lu Qiqi looking at her meaningfully, he smiled and said, "I'm afraid that if I spread this wooden tool, it will make that fat frog so embarrassed." ”

On one side is his friend, and on the other side is his notorious father, this competition for business, poor Li Dagongzi is indeed a little embarrassed.

Lu Qiqi saw that she understood, so he smiled and said: "Don't be careless, don't look at Li Yong who doesn't pay attention all day long, but his father Li Da is not easy to get along with." ”

How can a person who can be a member of the ministry be a good person?

Banniang smiled: "Brother Seventeen, don't worry, I have it in my heart." After all, I won't have a head-on conflict with him, and I have thought of borrowing so much money from you for this. If he uses three bad means, I am not afraid of him. Who is vegetarian again? How can there be no competition in business? ”

Lu Seventeen said: "That's okay, your brothers and your father, but they are all honest people, some things, you don't tell them that it's right, if you need to get an idea, or run errands, it's inconvenient to talk to others, you might as well look for me." ”

Banniang smiled: "I know, if there is a place for Brother Seventeen, I will not be polite." ”

The two said a few more words, and seeing that the sun was waning to the west, and seeing that the time to meet Li Yong was approaching, Lu Qiqi said goodbye and left.

Liuniang did a big business, saying that it is also false to say that it is not fighting for money, after all, it is a little bit of a small profit, and the mood is very good, seeing that it is almost time to fight foreign, so I waited for a while, instructed a few guys in the store to say a few words, and left Cang'er to take care of it, so I led the two people in July and September, and went to the restaurant to find Ah Lan, and asked her to calculate all the money saved in the shop in the past two months, and asked her to take it out early in the morning. So he went home.

As soon as the Wu family heard that Banniang wanted money, he happily went to find the Zhu family, leaving only one hundred and ten family items, and handed over the rest to Banniang: "If you want to use money, your sister-in-law and mother will support you." Your brothers' usual expenses have been given in advance, and the family will not need them at this time. I left a hundred of them, enough for the autumn harvest. There will be money back in the Grange then, and if it is not enough, we will find a way. ”

Banniang smiled: "Enough." Sister-in-law rest assured, at most a year, the money invested before will be recovered. There is no guarantee that the normal expenses of the family will not be bad after all. Seeing that this summer day is about to pass, when there is income in the restaurant when I go back, I will ask Ah Lan to send some back, and you will make two new clothes for your family, including those mothers-in-law and maids. Especially Xiao Shi and Xiao Jiu, as well as Jue'er and Gong'er, we are almost nothing, but we can't let them be wronged. ”

Wu said with a smile: "Don't worry, sister-in-law has a number, what do you say all day long that your daughter should be pampered, and the little ten things, my sister-in-law will be the first to do it." But after all, this girl is a pain. It's better than you guys were back then. ”

Thinking of Xiao Shi's naughty one, Banniang just laughed. Thinking that she was going to go out in the next few days, she told Wu, but Wu was not at ease, and said, "Why don't you ask your eldest brother to go out with you?" Or take care of it? ”

Banniang said: "That's not possible, won't it delay the eldest brother's learning?" ”

As he was talking, he heard someone behind him: "I accompanied the eighth sister, and I was looking for the eighth sister to talk about these things." ”

The two sisters-in-law looked back, was it Zeng Ziye?

"Big brother, why are you here?"

"I had just been talking to my father, and when I heard that you had returned, I came looking for you. Just heard you're going out? ”

Although Banniang has grown a lot taller this year, she already has the appearance of a girl. Standing slim and tall, Zeng Ziye, who can be much older than her, is like her own daughter.

Zeng Ziye rubbed her head as she spoke, and when she saw that Banniang should "yes", she sat down and said with a smile: "I just discussed with my father, the imperial examination is on the way, the eldest brother is hopeless, eighth sister, you are still young, although the eldest brother can't help you anything, he can still help you bear some burdens and do errands." ”

Zeng Ziye and the brothers of the Zeng family are also very capable people, although they are not as good as Zeng Zigu in reading, but when it comes to human affairs, because he has been a businessman before, he is better than the brothers of Zigu. If you become an official in the future, although you may not be able to achieve much, you can be a party official, but it is certain. If he can really help Banniang, Banniang will be much easier, but won't he live up to his years of hard study?

The eldest brother has been reading books for decades, how can he give up so easily?

Banniang lost her mind for a while.

Zeng Ziye smiled: "What? Don't believe the big brother? ”

Banniang hurriedly shook her head and said: "It's not that I don't believe my eldest brother's words, but I want to fight for more money so that I want to reduce the burden of some family income for my brothers, so that you can all devote yourself to studying, and show your life's ambitions in your career in the future, and you can also glorify my Zeng family. Besides, eldest brother, you have been reading books for decades, and you are also a person who has the world in mind, how can you ...... for the sake of feeling sorry for the eighth sister?"

Zeng Ziye looked at Banniang's eyes, and the more full of pity became.
