Chapter Ninety-Seven: People's Hearts Are Different
Bai Lin poked her head out, and the bewitching face behind the fan smiled wildly: "This is Uncle Feng's sister-in-law?" Sure enough, there is Boss Feng's support and no need to please people, and he is really tough to speak. After laughing, he whispered: "Auntie's strange woman who holds millions of family fortunes is admirable, and this little woman who sells cakes is also very interesting." It's better to love food than a sour woman who loves to make trouble, not to mention that her handicraft master still likes it very much. ”
Are all the people in Huashi County this temper? Li Chun's little lover listened to those romantic things, not only was she not shy, but her eyes widened, and she kept saying that she didn't think about tea and dinner when she wanted a man, and he was ashamed of her when she heard it; Feng Jinshan's sister-in-law is obviously a rich daughter, but she shows up to sell cakes, and she seems to be enjoying it. Li Chun's temper is also unbending. Funny, so funny.
How could Uncle Seven be so lucky and pick up a Li Chun in Huashi County. Li Chun was actually not lucky, and the first time he went to sea, he encountered the Champa riots. The Bai family's stronghold was surrounded, and the ships did not dare to dock when they saw black smoke rising from afar on the sea, so the seventh uncle sent him and a few people to swim ashore to inquire about the news. He was bold and lucky, and he went to five together to come back to him, but he actually carried back the ninth uncle who occupied the city, and he still carried the account book and seal.
What is really shocking is that last year, the fleet of the Bai family who came back from Java was infected with the epidemic and was not allowed to enter the port, so they had to drift on the sea, and finally Lady Pearl ordered the ship to be burned, no one dared to do it, it was Li Chun who set the fire. There were also many live sailors locked in the cabin, along with the full cabin of precious spices, he led people to drive a small boat to guard the sea, and those who escaped the fire and wanted to swim ashore were killed by him, and not a single one escaped alive.
The screams and the strange fragrance spread to the shore, and this strange aroma mixed with the smell of burnt skin and flesh did not dissipate after three days and three nights, and the people of the entire South Springs City did not eat much meat for that month, and the butcher's business was unusually cold. The ship-burning incident made the Bai family notorious, but it made Mrs. Pearl look at Li Chun differently and ask the seventh uncle to ask him, but he simply ran back to Zhancheng.
Lady Pearl has been gossiping a lot since she was in charge of the family business as a woman, Bai Qi is in the prime of life, and now she has run the city well, and the spices such as ebony and Canaan Zhenzhen collected are worth the sum of the previous years in one year, making up for the deficit of the epidemic.
Uncle Seven said that Uncle Nine was too gentle in the past, and he always thought that business was not in benevolence and righteousness, but in fact, didn't you kill my parents when you cut off my wealth? Now there is Li Chun, with a group of outlaws like him who are rampant in the city, and it is said that he even fought with the Fernans Golden Wool who were entrenched in Luzon somehow at sea, and it was an ironclad ship and firearms. Now that the clan is calling for the seventh uncle to be the patriarch, Bai Lin only hates that he is not angry, and he can't help Mrs. Pearl when he can't go to sea.
Feng Jinshan circled around in his room, and a few of his beards were broken. He didn't have that idea, firstly, Jiaojiao is the meat of his father's heart, and secondly, to say the truth that his conscience will not hurt, his sister is far from beautiful, if he wants to give it to Bai Xiaoyi Ye - Xiao Eleven himself is more beautiful than Jiaojiao.
Is this why the little eleven master doesn't pay attention to appearance? Feng Jinshan was really puzzled, Xiao Eleven Ye went out for a spin today and came back very interested in Jiaojiao, and asked a lot of Jiaojiao things. Could it be that Little Eleven really fell in love with Jiaojiao's craftsmanship? Also, as the saying goes, a good cook doesn't worry about no man's pursuit, and when she doesn't see Bai Xiaoye happy to eat, she will share half of her pearls, which is 10,000 silver goods, and it is estimated that she will earn at least twice as much when she sells it. But the one who actually cooks is not Jiaojiao, it's a willow branch, what should I do in the future?
Feng Jinshan grinded off a layer of skin on the ground, and finally gritted his teeth, it was her blessing that Bai Xiaoye fell in love with Jiaojiao. It is estimated that it is impossible to be a wife, and it is okay to be a concubine, so Hengzhi will first take the big ship of the Nanquan Bai family.
The little young master of the Bai family, who is so beautiful that he is close to a demon, will go back tomorrow, such a character has no time to wander around, Liu Zhi cleaned up the kitchen, and said goodbye to Feng Jiaojiao and went home. Feng Jiaojiao was soaking in the hot water, and they didn't see outside, just talking through the bucket. Feng Jiaojiao didn't know what kind of fragrant soup it was, it was fragrant, and two strange mothers came to help her knead and rub it.
"Twig, do you believe it? I really bathe every day, but they rubbed a layer of skin on me! Feng Jiaojiao said excitedly.
Liu Zhi looked at the two mothers who looked powerful, and then looked at Feng Jiaojiao's skin that was red and white from the hot water, and joked: "It seems that I want to cook you, and I have to turn the pork over and over and wash it a few times when I make braised pork." ”
The two mothers twitched the corners of their mouths when they listened, and they didn't know why their hands were heavier, Feng Jiaojiao shouted in pain, this little ancestor was really annoyed, and he splashed so much that he jumped out of the bathtub and pulled the cloth towel around him: "Don't get it, it's really my piece of pork!" ”
Liu Zhi hurriedly comforted her: "Are you dressed up so carefully to look at others?" Be pretty, and let that good boy fall under your embroidered shoes. ”
"No, it's the evening when my brother feasts on Bai Xiaoshiye," Feng Jiaojiao said for a while, "Xiaozhi, I'm sorry." ”
Liu Zhi smiled: "What's this, I didn't want to cook for him." I like to cook, but every time I see Brother Xiaochun eating happily, I don't naturally like to smell the smell of oil and salt; To be honest, every time I smell raw meat, I hate it. ”
She took a cloth towel and wiped Feng Jiaojiao's hair: "It's great to have your help this time to hear the news of Brother Xiaochun." Alas, Jiaojiao, he is in the city, and he is far to the south. ”
"I've heard of that place, there are elephants there! There are also many exotic fruits. Sure enough, Feng Jiaojiao and Liu Zhi's focus will always deviate.
The two girls spoke boudoir talk, and the girl's mind was like dew on a blade of grass, shining with a charming glow in the sun, but the sorrow and joy were fleeting.
"That Bai Shiyi is more beautiful than a girl, what did he say to you?"
"Brother Xiaochun is far, far away, and it takes a long, long time to travel the boat."
"What else? What else? Feng Jiaojiao asked curiously.
"And you say that whoever the women there fancy will go with whomever they like?" "Really?!!"
"I really envy Li Chun, it sounds so funny. Xiaozhi, you go and ask Li Chun when he will come back, let him take you away, and I will go with him when the time comes. ”
"That little white eleven doesn't know if it's true or false, saying that Brother Xiaochun has a lot of women over there who have taken a fancy to him."
"How dare he? Besides, I've heard people say that the women over there are all dark and look like monkeys, can Li Chun like monkeys? Feng Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing as she said that, and Liu Zhi was also amused by the scene she imagined.
As they spoke, the two of them fell asleep unconsciously. At night, Liu Zhi had a dream in which Li Chun came back with a group of little monkeys and said to her, "Xiaozhi, this is our child." She woke up frightened, touched her head in a cold sweat, and remembered the content of the dream Willow Branch was ashamed and annoyed.
