Chapter Eighty-Six: The Choice (Part II)
"Look at what you said...... Mu Wanqiu's face was hot, "With your craft, please can't even invite ......" Seeing his depressed expression, he grinned again, "Master Sun can say okay, it's just a little bit in this life, if I develop in the future, I will definitely come back to invite you, and then you will not be allowed to Laipi"
Stunned, Sun Kuaishou immediately laughed, "...... Okay, uncle is waiting for you to come back. I have never seen such an understanding little girl, Sun Kuaishou laughed out of tears, nodded at Suozi Niang, and turned around and walked out.
One foot in the door and one foot outside the door, Sun Kuaishou suddenly remembered something, and turned around, "I said Ah Qiu......"
"Uncle......" Mu Wanqiu stepped forward and helped him stand.
"If you want to do it alone, I don't think you should go back to Guangling County......" Sun Kuaishou thought for a while and said, "It's too poor there, and there is no development if you go, you might as well go to Huaiyin County, it's not far from Guangling County, and it's the same ......if you rent a house there and take your mother over."
"This ......" Mu Wanqiu looked at Sun Kuaishou puzzled, she didn't have a home with Ben, it didn't matter where she went, but, "...... Why did Master Sun ask me to go to Huaiyin County? ”
“…… Although it is not as good as Shuoyang, the incense market in Huaiyin County is also thriving, and I have a nominal apprentice who opened a spice shop there......" Sun Kuaishou said, "When you get there, it is always more convenient to have someone who knows the roots......" paused, "When he is tight-handed, he can take care of one or two ......"
“…… Really," Mu Wanqiu's eyes lit up, "Great, thank you, Master Sun." "There was joy in his voice," ...... I'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”
"Look at it, this girl is impatient" Sun Kuaishou stretched out his finger to Suozi Niang, "If you want to say that this young man, as long as you recognize it and are not afraid of hardship, we should let them try, you look at my nominal apprentice in Huaiyin County, but I have learned the craft with me for a few days, and I am only in my early twenties this year, so I started a spice shop by myself, earning a lot of money, and I don't forget to come to honor me every year, and the thing I sent, tsk...... "Smacking my lips," I have lived for half my life, and it is the first time I have seen ......" sighed," It's that I'm a master who is not productive, I'm old, and I still have to carry work for others......"
The voice stopped abruptly, and Sun Kuaishou shook his head gloomily.
“…… Master Sun, don't say such frustrating words, your name is also well-known in Shuoyang, when it comes to you, there are a few people who don't pick a thumbs up," Suozi Niang retorted.
“…… Hearing this, Master Sun said angrily, "When you can do it, you are a person, and when you can't do it, the owner will shout and shout, and even a dog is not as good" turned to Mu Wanqiu, "Ah Qiu is right, we have our own craftsmanship and strength, why do we want to carry work for others when we are young, we will do it for ourselves, the money we open is our own, and we will have the final say when we are old" shook his head and sighed, "Uncle didn't understand this reason when he was young, and the owner touted it a few words. When I'm old and figure it out, it's too late to regret it."
"Master Sun......" Mu Wanqiu cried out worriedly, although his tone was relaxed and ridiculous, Mu Wanqiu could hear his helplessness of lamenting the old age, she had lived two lives, and she knew the word "regret" best.
"Ah Qiu, don't worry, the uncle is just complaining...... "waved her hand to let her stay in the house," ...... Uncle will ask Baojun to write a letter to my nominal apprentice in a while, and he will send it to you. ”
"Hey, Master Sun, walk slowly......" Mu Wanqiu happily responded.
"Let Master Sun bother......" Suozi Niang opened the door for him with a smile, unconsciously stunned, "Shopkeeper Li ......"
Li Dachun, the big shopkeeper in the front hall of Li Ji, stood at the door menacingly, raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, when he saw the lock lady come out, his eyes stood up, "...... Li Laohan doesn't skip words at home.
Hearing that it was Li Dachun's voice, Sun Kuaishou pushed Mu Wanqiu violently, Mu Wanqiu was startled, and then entered the inner room in a flash, and looked out through the crack in the door with a pounding heart.
“…… Show that your eyes are big, what are you staring at with a woman" Sun Kuaishou stepped out of the door.
I didn't expect to meet Sun Kuaishou here, Li Dachun was stunned, and then he put on a smirk, bowed down and hugged his fist at Sun Kuaishou, "Master Sun's ......" stretched his neck and looked into the house, and then turned his head to look at Suozi Niang, "Master Sun, this is ......"
"The owner asked me to come over and settle the money for Master Lin Ji's materials...... Sun Kuaishou said casually, "What's the matter with Shopkeeper Li?" ”
"It's ...... here," Li Dachun hesitated for a long time.
He must have something to do with Mu Wanqiu
Seeing him like this, Suozi Niang chuckled in her heart and looked at Sun Kuaishou uneasily.
“…… If there is any fart, let it go quickly, how can you be like a girl" In an instant, Sun Kuaishou also thought of this, and he was going to raise his legs and leave, but he stopped there again, his eyes stood up.
Li Dachun shuddered, he was going to wait for Sun Kuaishou to leave, but he didn't want him to wait there.
"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just that the owner is not at ease, let me pass a message from house to house......" He bowed respectfully to Master Sun, and then turned his head to look at Suo Ziniang, his voice was obviously an octave higher, "...... Lin Ji's little handyman offended people, Uncle Qian said that no one was allowed to take her in, and the owner said that if anyone took her in without permission and annoyed Uncle Qian, don't blame the owner for not being merciful."
The lock lady shuddered, and her eyes subconsciously glanced at the inner room.
Seeing that her expression was wrong, Li Dachun raised his leg and was about to enter the house, but was grabbed by Sun Kuai's hand, "Let's go, the words are over, let's have a drink and ...... together."
I had heard that the little girl and Li Laohan's family had frequent contacts, so the owner asked him to come over and take a look in person, and seeing Sun Kuaishou dragging him away, Li Dachun was a little unwilling, and looked into the house suspiciously, "Master Sun is waiting for me, I'll go in and take a look, and I'll come out......."
“…… Let's go, I just came out, and there is no one inside," Sun Kuaishou dragged him hard to prevent him from entering, "...... The proprietor didn't dare to accept it, how dare Li Laohan accept it with a handlebar" Seeing that he hesitated, he glared, "Why, I can't believe your eldest brother's words" Dodge aside, "You go in and see......" snorted coldly and strode towards the courtyard.
Looking at the low and gloomy hut, and then at the burly back of Sun Kuaishou, Li Dachun hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth, "What did Master Sun say...... "A few steps to catch up with him, "...... Can you and I still believe it? Didn't I finish speaking......" Turning his head to the lock mother and shouting, "You can remember the words of the owner, if you annoy Uncle Qian, don't blame the owner for turning his face and being ruthless, and driving your family out of Shuoyang" and pulled Sun Kuaishou again, "I went to Zhiwei Zhai, I heard that there was a new product of crab roe buns, and the freshness ......" smacked his lips, "Bao you eat this time and think about the next time, go, today's brother treats ......"
"Master Sun, Master Li and Shopkeeper Li walk slowly......" Looking at the backs of the two, Suozi Niang wiped the sweat from her forehead.
……
"Auntie, don't burn, these are enough......" Li Laohan and Suozi had already fallen asleep, Suozi Niang was still sitting by the pot sweating profusely, and Mu Wanqiu squatted on the side to help light the fire, "...... It's too heavy to bring too much. ”
"Don't be afraid of being heavy, when you go out, this bread is the most famine ......" After turning over the cakes in the pot and covering the pot, Suozi Niang wiped her sweat with her sleeve, "It's not easy to break, and it's anti-hunger, where to buy a bowl of soup is a full meal...... "Ah Qiu" looked at Mu Wanqiu seriously, "Ah Qiu...... Don't be too wordy, we don't have money, we have to learn to be frugal everywhere, I know you have a few taels of silver in your pocket, but you have no relatives and no support, and you want to open a workshop, what can you do with that little silver? ”
"I know......" Mu Wanqiu pursed her lips.
Remembering that when he just came out of Zhuzi's house, walking alone in the mountains, a piece of bread was a day or even a day when he couldn't eat a meal, Mu Wanqiu added a handful of firewood to the stove pit.
It's not that she doesn't understand, it's that she can't bear to worry that the lock mother is so late, and she is still busy for her.
“…… When a person goes out, he has to have more eyes on everything, but he can't be like at home, he doesn't go to his heart for anything, and he ...... out the baked cakes in the pot, and put a few rolled out sheets on the lid curtain and put them in, and the lid of the pot is covered, and the lock lady chatters again.
"Well, I know......" nodded incessantly, Mu Wanqiu listened seriously, her eyes were a little moist, her eyes were a little moist, her future was uncertain, I was afraid that she would never hear the chatter of Suozi Niang again, she wanted to remember all this, and when she recalled it in the future, every bit was warm.
Don't be like now, what comes to the bottom of my heart all the time, haunted by my dreams, is the bitter hatred of her previous life, the humiliation that never made her sleep peacefully.
Knock knock, just as he was talking, a quick knock came from the courtyard, and the lock lady muttered, "It's so late, who is still coming to the door?" ”
“…… It can't be the shopkeeper of Li Da, right? After waking up, Mu Wanqiu blurted out.
Suozi Niang was startled, and suddenly remembered that Li Dachun came to pass the word during the day, glanced at Mu Wanqiu, and lowered her voice, "You go to the West House to hide......" and shouted at the door, "Who?"
Stuffing the firewood in her hand into the stove pit, Mu Wanqiu stood up on tiptoe, looked at the courtyard silently, and then looked at Suozi Niang, her eyes were full of worry.
It's not that she's afraid of the Yao family's power, she's afraid of causing trouble to the Suozi family.
"It's okay...... Lock Lady shook her head, motioned for her to hurry into the house, and asked again, "...... Who is it? He stood up while slapping the dust on his hands.
"It's ...... me" A soft female voice, "Auntie, is Aqiu here, I'll take a look at her......"
"Who are you......" I didn't hear who it was, and Suozi Niang turned around and gave Mu Wanqiu an inquiring look.
"It's Sannier......" was about to push the door of the West House, Mu Wanqiu turned around and exclaimed in surprise, sniffing again, "...... What does it smell like? ”
"Suffered, suffered, the cake in the pot is paste......" The lock mother slapped her.
"Auntie look at the pot first, I'll open the door......" Mu Wanqiu pushed her.
“…… Are you really here" Seeing that it was Mu Wanqiu who came to open the door, Sannier exclaimed in surprise.
"Shhhhh......h ”
