When he got closer, Du Ruo saw that this person was not very tall, his clothes were a little tattered, his face was dark, but his eyes were very sharp, with fine light, and the stick in his hand was like a cane.
Song Ju'an knows him? Who is this man?
"Long time no see." Song Ju'an said to him.
The man laughed a few times, walked to a place two meters away from them and stopped, lifted the chick in his hand and handed it to Du Ruo, "Here you go." ”
Song Ju'an took a few steps forward, took it from his hand, turned around and handed it to Du Ruo.
"What? Afraid that I will hurt your wife? The man asked.
"I don't know what to visit?" Song Ju'an did not answer the rhetorical question.
"I asked people to come to the village to greet you a few days ago, but unfortunately those friends are gone, so I thought I would come to see you in person and see how comfortable you are!"
Song Ju'an turned around and pointed at the Song family's house, "I'm really guilty, I'm too poor!" ”
Du Ruo felt that Song Ju'an's tone was full of deep helplessness and shame when he said this.
"Won't you invite me in for a cup of tea?"
"Please!" Song Ju'an made a gesture to invite the man, then looked at Du Ruo again, and scolded: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Since I have a friend, I will cook a few dishes! Fetch a jar of wine! ”
Du Ruo: "......"
There are no vegetables at home, so she just eats them by herself, although she doesn't know who that person is, and she has a deep friendship with Song Ju'an, but she can't let her family drink porridge and pickles, so she had to go to Han Liang's house again to buy some pork.
When he arrived at Han Liang's house, he helped her cut off the pigskin underneath and asked, "Sister-in-law, why did you come here so late?" Brother Song is at home, right? ”
"Well, there are guests at home, and there is nothing to entertain, so I will buy some meat and go back." She said.
Being alone with Han Liang made her feel very uneasy, although she had dealt with her later, he didn't show anything, and she couldn't see anything.
"I wonder what kind of guest it is?" Han Liang said with a smile, and removed the bones from the pork for her.
"I don't know either, I've never seen it, it's weird to look at."
Her words seemed to arouse Han Liang's curiosity, and he asked her what she looked like, and Du Ruo described the person's appearance for him.
Back at home, Cai's fire, she stir-fried vegetables, Cai's was also a little uneasy, walked to the courtyard to look at the hall a few times, walked back, sat down and said to himself: "It doesn't look like a good person!" How did Ju An know such a person? ”
"You don't know him either, mother?" Du Ruo asked her.
"If I knew him, could I hang him!" Cai scolded her.
Du Ruo's heart was even more strange.
By the time the meal was ready and served, the man had already drunk a lot of wine, and the stick in his hand had not left his side, and his beard was stained with wine, and he looked a little sloppy.
"Brother Song's life is really moist! No wonder it's been ...... all this time" He hiccuped, then added, "Not left!" ”
"I don't have any lofty ambitions, just serve my parents, farm and teach, how can Brother Jin come and go freely?" Song Ju'an poured him a glass of wine.
The man couldn't help but laugh, "I can say such things from your mouth, but it's a pity that I am the only one who hears them!" ”
Song Ju'an glanced at Du Ruo, who was standing aside and did not leave, and said coldly: "I was drinking with the guests, what do you look like when you stand in front of a woman?!" ”
Du Ruo wanted to listen to what they had to say, but when he reprimanded her, she had no choice but to walk out.
When she fell asleep, Song Ju'an was still drinking and talking with the man.
Obviously, the relationship between the two people doesn't look very good, but they seem to be old friends, and they know each other well.
The next morning, when she got up, she found that the man had already left, and she did not know when he had left.
Song Ju'an, as in the past, was feeding the cows and the two rabbits.
After eating, she walked to the entrance of the village, and took a look with Han Liang on the way, but saw that his face was a little ugly, as if he hadn't slept all night, and he was injured on his wrist, wrapped in thick gauze.
"Why is Brother Han injured?" She asked if he was fine when she went to buy meat last night.
"I accidentally touched the bones." Han Liang said to her.
Du Ruo nodded, but said in his heart, most of the flesh and bones hurt his hands, right? How did you touch your wrist? However, people have misses, horses have stumbled, and it is also said in the past.
After getting into the carriage, Seventh Brother was worried when he saw her today, and even the horsewhip seemed to be a little absent-minded.
When she was halfway up, Seventh Brother said to her: "Du Niangzi, or I won't come to pick you up in the future!" ”
"Why? Did Seventh Brother take on another job? "In this neighboring village, there are no more people like Brother Qi who specialize in driving carriages. She couldn't have walked that far, and although she wasted a few dollars, she couldn't afford to lose a lot of money.
"What those people said yesterday, I'm afraid that others will misunderstand Du Niangzi and let people gossip!" The seventh brother hunched his back and sighed.
"I'm barefoot and I'm not afraid to wear shoes, I don't care, if you feel uncomfortable, Brother Seven, then don't take it." Du Ruo said.
Anyway, she has always been talked about in this village.
The seventh brother sighed deeply and didn't say anything more.
When she arrived at the embroidery village, Ming Se seemed to have been waiting for her for a long time, she sat in the gazebo not far from the gate, and when she saw Du Ruo coming, she called someone to call her over.
"What did the girl tell me to do?" Du Ruo asked.
Mincer smiled, invited her to sit down, and poured her another glass of water and handed it to her.
Du Ruo was flattered and took it, Mingse's attitude towards her has been getting better and better recently.
"Du Niangzi, you are always very busy these days, the little young master has asked me a few times, saying why I can't see you in the embroidery village." Mincer said.
"It was my negligence that I didn't say hello to the little master." Du Ruodao, although other female workers have never specifically asked Meng Xiuwen for peace, they still have to say what they want to say.
Ming Se smiled lightly, "You've hurt the young master!" ”
"Less...... What's wrong with the young master? ”
"You always test him in the letter, he is afraid that he will not do well enough, these days he always holds the book, the school is also diligent, and the meal is not very temperamental, even the master can't see him."
Du Ruo felt embarrassed, she didn't know what to write on the letter, although her concern for Meng Xiuwen was from the heart, but after writing down half a piece of letterhead, she finished what she had to say, and asked him some things in the book to make up the number of words......
"Don't go to the Good Works Building first, come with me to see the master, I don't know how to punish you!" Minse stood up and pretended to be serious.
Du Ruo sighed in his heart.
When she arrived at the place, she followed Ming Se and respectfully saluted Meng Yuanzhou, and Ming Se turned around and looked at her with a smile and went down.
Meng Yuanzhou stood with his back to her, and the two maids were putting on a dark purple robe for him and arranging the ties.
"If I can't see my son, I have no choice but to see you." Meng Yuanzhou said.
Du Ruo couldn't see his expression, and said in his heart, although what he said was exaggerated, it did intimidate her.
"Master Meng, I, I was wrong." She said.
The two maids walked outside, and Meng Yuanzhou turned to look at her.
"How do you memorize the Analects?" He asked, walking over with his hands behind his back.
"I can memorize a few sentences." She was puzzled why she suddenly asked this.
"Really?" He laughed nonchalantly, walked to the other side and sat on the ground, "The Xiuwen is almost finished, how many sentences will you memorize?" You're almost halfway through the letter to him. ”
Du Ruo: "......" Although she can't memorize everything, she can also flip through the books at hand for reference......
"The young master is too serious, he will definitely do something great in the future, Meng Ye is really a blessing." She complimented.
"I hope so." Meng Yuanzhou pointed to a seat and asked her to sit down.
Du Ruo also sat on the ground and looked at him respectfully.
Meng Yuanzhou said: "Your proposal that day, I discussed with several big businessmen in Fengling County and felt that it could be implemented, and then I began to jointly purchase silk at a high price, next year, the year after tomorrow, the year after tomorrow, the price of silk is at least two-thirds lower than this year, and the price must be kept low." I've got you on a mission. ”
Du Ruo felt a little excited in his heart, and listened to it.
"How about you lead people to acquire Donggou Village and several neighboring villages?"
Du Ruo's eyes lit up suddenly, "I am willing to contribute to Meng Ye." She said.
"Okay." He lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then looked up again and asked, "I heard that you were sick a few days ago?" Divorced from the steward? ”
"Yes." She's just busy making up books.
"Are you feeling okay now?"
"Yes, thank you Meng Ye for your concern."
"Go down." Meng Yuanzhou said.
Du Ruo got up and walked outside.
In the next two days, when she took the people assigned to her above to buy silk in the village, the entire Donggou Village was boiling, and almost everyone in the village came to see it.
She led people to start from the south of the village, but all those who raised silkworms at home reported that she came here, and she took people to buy them.
The people who followed her didn't know why they were being watched, and they were quite surprised.
Du Ruo comforted them and said, "Don't be afraid, it's not looking at you, it's looking at me." ”
Mrs. Wang didn't know why she went to the front of the village, squeezed from the back to the front, looked at her and smiled: "Rulan, aren't you working in the embroidery village?" Who asked you to come? How did you do this? ”
"The boss of the embroidery village trusted me and gave me this task." Du Ruodao, looked up at the front again, and said loudly: "Let go of the front, I can't walk the road!" Go back to your own home, what you should do, what you should do! Slow down, don't take it! ”
The man in front quickly made a way.
Mrs. Wang followed her for a few steps, and she didn't know why she was smiling so happily, so she called her a few times and walked out of the crowd.
After Du Ruo finished collecting one, he went to the next one next door, his face was calm throughout the whole process, and the people who followed him kept the accounts and weighed them.
"This year's silk price is very high!" There is humanity.
"Yes! Gui Fajia sold more than a dozen taels of silver at once! ”
"Did Du Rulan make a mistake about the price?!"
There were also some people who ran from the back to the front, and there was a lot of discussion.
"Is that really the daughter-in-law of the Song family?!"
"Is it Du Rulan? Isn't she?! "The latter asks the previous one.
"It's her! That's her! Another jumped up and shouted.
Whenever she brought someone to a house, the onlookers would follow her, watching it with relish as if watching a play, and saying everything.
Du Ruo felt that the people who followed her in Wanhebu Village had probably never seen this kind of battle, but she had become accustomed to it after experiencing countless times of being watched by the villagers.
"Sixty-nine pounds and seven taels, write it down!" Du Ruo said after looking at it.
"Rulan, just remember seventy catties, it's all from the same village!" The family laughed.
"As much as it should be." Du Ruo said.
