Chapter 102: An Unexpected Visitor

Finally persuaded Hu Fei to throw away the idea of opening fire for revenge, Chunying secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then enthusiastically discussed with him which family in the vicinity of Funing Street needed Chinese people recently, but Hu Fei already had an idea.

He pointed to the bowl of oil on the table and said, "This is what I bought on credit from a nearby oil mill, and there are two catties in total." The oil mill had a bad business, and it squeezed a lot of oil, but few people came to buy it. I looked at it coldly, mostly because his store was too remote, and the shopkeeper and his wife were honest and couldn't shout. I see that his oil is good, it should not be difficult to find a buyer, why not make an order for him first? ”

Chunying blinked and asked in a low voice, "You took other people's oil on credit to set it on fire, do you plan to repay the debt?" ”

Hu Fei froze, his face was a little red: "This ......" paused, he took a deep breath, looked up and said, "I know I'm wrong, so ...... I'm going to make it up to the shopkeeper. He doesn't know how to sell his own oil, so I'll find a buyer for him! ”

Chun Ying smiled secretly: "Okay! Go for it! "I think Hu Fei is from the family of an imperial merchant in the end, and he has some talent for doing business, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of this transaction immediately.

Hu Fei was puzzled by her "come on". Meaning, I thought to myself, is it because she wants to do the oil business, does she also want to make a few taels? At this time, Aunt Cheng shouted in the courtyard of the opposite door with a crying voice: "Xiaochun! Where did the dead girl hide?! Don't get back to me! ”

Chun Ying sighed slightly: "It seems that I am going back, Hu Gong. Son, take care, I'll come to see you again when I have a chance. Glancing at the messy yard outside the door, she secretly thought in her heart that she would clean it for him when she returned.

Hu Fei Zhengse saluted her and gave her a gift. Out of the small courtyard, he closed the door and turned around, and clenched his fists tightly: Hu Peng, no matter what you want to do, just come on, I will never admit defeat!

Chun Ying ran to the main house of the family's courtyard and was taken aback. house. Some vases, teacups, teapots and other things that were originally placed were smashed to pieces, the fragments were scattered to the ground, a few chairs were crooked, and even half of the fresh fruits that were originally placed on the table rolled to the ground. Aunt Cheng sat on the edge of the bed with messy sideburns, looking dazed, and when she saw her enter the door, she scolded her: "Where did you go?!" You see that I am unlucky, and you are secretly laughing at me, right? No mistakes, no less words! ”

"Where can I be? Because my aunt told me to leave, I went to sit outside the door. "Spring. Ying looked at her carefully, "Auntie...... Shall we go back? "Is it useful to cry? It's better to go back to your brother as soon as possible to discuss countermeasures.

Aunt Cheng became angry when she heard it: "Where are you going back?!" Here it is mine. Family! No one wants to kick me out! She sniffed and gritted her teeth: "Dead vixen, think you can snatch my man, take my family property, and drive my mother and son away?" Do her big spring and autumn dreams! Even if I die, I will die in the Cheng family! ”

Chunying has a headache, who is going to drive her? But looking at Aunt Cheng's posture, is this going to be a hard fight? In ancient times, when this kind of thing happened, shouldn't the person who is in the main room first pretend to be virtuous and welcome the concubine into the door, and then slowly change the way to clean up the other party? She seems to have heard Zhang Xiaomei talk about the plot of a few books......

After too much time, she didn't remember much anymore, and seeing that Aunt Cheng still looked angry, she said, "Then I'll go back to Yunxiang Pavilion first, right?" There are many words that are not wrong, and it looks like it's almost dinner time, and the shopkeeper still has to eat, and there are two ...... Sulosui."

Aunt Cheng's eyes lit up: "That's right! I also have two sons! You go back and call them right away, and we'll move back in, so that the vixen won't be playing tricks in the dark!" After that, his eyes turned red: "Even for the sake of his son, the one who killed a thousand knives can't be too ruthless......"

Chun Ying hurriedly retreated, and immediately ran back to Yunxiang Pavilion and told the shopkeeper Shi everything. The shopkeeper Shi listened to it with a puzzled face, and only after a while did he say: "I reminded my sister earlier, but she didn't believe it......" Then he went to the street to call the two nephews, and asked Chunying to pack their mother and son's luggage.

Chunying cleaned up according to his words, made a simple dinner, watched the three of them eat, and then took a food box with a few dishes and snacks that Aunt Cheng loved to eat, and sent them to the shopkeeper Shi with the luggage. The latter sent his two nephews home.

In the next few days, Aunt Cheng didn't come back, but Chunying was happy. She was accustomed to the daily cleaning work, so when she finished her task early, she generously sat at the top of the stairs with her own needlework. Without Aunt Cheng's constant support, and without worrying about being discovered by others, Chunying's efficiency is exceptionally high, and she has already made five or six handkerchiefs in two days, and used up all the fabrics. She was about to find a time to send the embroidery to consignment and buy some thread and cloth back, when she heard the stone shopkeeper calling herself.

Chunying hurriedly put away the needlework, ran to the front to ask him if he had any instructions, and the stone shopkeeper sighed and said, "I really can't stay in the store with peace of mind, my sister quarreled with my brother-in-law again, and even Su Yi was almost beaten." I'm going to talk and make peace, and I'll leave the store to the guys, and you will take care of the house for me. ”

Chunying was busy, and was a little hesitant: "Don't I have to follow?" "No mistakes, no skipping words. Usually it's her job to clean up the aftermath. The shopkeeper smiled bitterly: "That's it, your child's family, you will only be scolded." And it's all a family affair...... Ah, yes! He suddenly remembered something and handed over an old key: "In two days, another batch of new goods will come, you will clean up the warehouse in the south wing of the backyard for me, which is the place where the old goods that cannot be sold are stored, clean them, and then throw away the things that are not needed, and vacate the house to put new goods." ”

The warehouse in the south chamber? Chunying remembers that it was a room that had never been opened, and it turned out to be a storeroom. She only knew that there were four rooms in the backyard for storing goods, but she didn't know that there was another one.

She took the rag to the south chamber, opened the door, and suddenly a smell mixed with the old smell came to her face. She coughed a few times and fanned the air before she could see what was going on in the room.

In the middle of the house were four large wooden frames up to the roof, each of which was covered with dust, and two of which were littered with small pieces of clothing, wrapped in coarse cloth. She pulled one to look at it, but accidentally didn't hold it steady, the cloth rolled to the ground, and the coarse cloth of the wrap spread out, only to realize that it was a peach-colored twig-twig satin, with a medium price, but the length was less than one and a half meters. Looking at other materials, most of them are coarse silk and coarse silk at low and medium prices, and occasionally there are a few high-quality materials with unfashionable colors, all of which are less than one, and the most gray-blue bamboo leaf printed muslin cloth has more than half a horse, and the least water-colored treasure pattern plain crepe satin is only more than two feet, Chunying guesses, this is probably the leftover tail, right? No mistakes in many words

However, these materials are actually good, when customers buy them, why don't they even buy that little bit of goods? These few feet of cloth are a bit reluctant to make a blouse, but they are more than enough to make hats and handkerchiefs. If you look closely, the color patterns of several of them are very familiar, and they seem to have been seen on the mother and son of Aunt Cheng. It seems that Mrs. Cheng still makes use of these tails. It's just that the leftovers of these two shelves, how long will it take to use up?

Chunying's heart moved, remembering that she still had to buy fabrics, anyway, the shopkeeper told her to throw away the things she didn't need, so she simply waited for him to come back and asked, if she could give her some of the materials, wouldn't everyone be happy?

She happily cleaned the storeroom, looked at the remaining materials one by one, picked some materials with a small quantity, light color and no pattern, and put aside two or three muslin cloths of poor quality, ready to wait for the stone shopkeeper to come back and ask.

She was busy all day, and made dinner, and heard the guy in front of the store shouting that he was ready to close the shop, so he hurriedly ran out, took the key in their hands, and sent the two away with a smile, before turning around and closing the door, but caught a glimpse of the shopkeeper Shi coming from not far away, being supported, and the person was actually Hu Fei!

They talked a few words in front of the store, and then they broke up. Hu Fei glanced at her quietly, smiled and nodded, and then walked away. Chunying saw that his complexion was better than a few days ago, but it seemed that he was much darker and thinner, and she was a little worried, so she helped the stone shopkeeper into the door, and then asked him what was wrong, Hu Feiwei would send him back?

The shopkeeper Shi said with a little tiredness on his face: "Don't mention it, there was another trouble today, fortunately, Hu Ershao was at home and helped persuade a few words, so he didn't fight." I had a bend on my foot, and it wasn't bad, but I was walking a little awkwardly. Bring me the medicine and rub it for me. ”

Chunying took it as she said, and the stone shopkeeper sighed while rubbing the medicinal wine: "Something happened to my sister's family, and I didn't bother to pay attention to anything else, I didn't know that such an accident had happened to the Hu family." Alas, that Hu Dashao is too domineering, I think Hu Ershao is a good person, not like a rebellious person. I heard that he made two businesses for the Jiang family's oil mill yesterday, and only charged Lao Jiang and his family a commission of 10%, Lao Jiang was so happy that he couldn't wait to recognize him as his godson! ”

Chunying heard that Hu Fei had done business, and she was happy for him, but it was not good to show it in front of the stone shopkeeper, so she asked, "Is the eldest lady okay?" No mistakes, a lot of words, or crying like that? ”

"Don't mention it, I came up with an idea for her a while ago, and asked her to ask her brother-in-law to bring the second room home to live, with the main room pressing, and the neighbors staring, the woman didn't dare to be too arrogant, sold the outer house, and saved a sum of silver. My sister didn't follow, I easily persuaded her, and now my brother-in-law finally brought people back, who knows which room to live in, it was a long time to make trouble. That woman is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, and my sister doesn't know if she can suppress it, if she suffers a loss, it's not mine. ”

Chunying hurriedly said: "I heard that other smart main rooms do this, pretending to be virtuous, putting people under their noses, so as to spy on each other." The shopkeeper's method is good, as long as the aunt calms down, it will not be a problem. ”

"Let's hope so." The shopkeeper sighed, as if he had no hope, "Fortunately, my sister waited for her in-laws in the early years, and sent the old man to the end, and my brother-in-law couldn't let her go, otherwise she ......would cry all day long" He shook his head.

Chunying smiled dryly and comforted a few words, helped him to eat again, and waited for him to feel better before carefully asking about the remaining materials in the warehouse.

The stone shopkeeper said: "That's what the guests don't like or are reluctant to spend more money to buy, it's just bits and pieces, it's not worth it, you want to take it, just don't take too much of the big pieces, my sister thought in her heart." ”

Chun Ying was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him, but suddenly heard a quick knock at the front door, which seemed to be mixed with the voices of Aunt Cheng and her two sons. She was busy opening the door, a gust of wind blew, and Aunt Cheng was already crying and rolling in: "I'm not alive!" Brother, you have to call the shots for me! ”

Shopkeeper Shi hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The brothers of the Cheng family who followed up said in unison: "That fox spirit refuses to kowtow to her mother, and her father still helps her speak!" ”

Aunt Cheng cried: "I have been a husband and wife with him for more than ten years, when did he say cruel things to me?" It's all the fox who instigated it, I'm going to tear her up! With her, there would be no me! ”

The shopkeeper had to persuade her well, and Chunying couldn't help but speak: "Auntie, you can pretend to be virtuous for a few days, and when the uncle goes out, isn't it still what you want at home?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Aunt Cheng turned around angrily and slapped her a few times: "That kind of woman, I can't bear it for a day, why do I want to be a virtuous person and watch them love and love?!" ”

That's not the point, okay? Chunying's body was in pain, and she couldn't avoid it, and she was a little annoyed. Shopkeeper Shi hurriedly stopped his sister: "Don't fight, don't fight, Xiaochun is also kind......"

"What's going on?!" There was a roar outside the door, startling all four people in the room. Chunying looked back and was overjoyed.

It was her long-lost second uncle, Lu Chongjun.

(Second uncle, Nai is finally here...... )
