Chapter 37: Heartwarming
Rui Xue nodded and walked out, but stopped by the door, raised her index finger and made a silent gesture, Sister-in-law Zhang immediately swallowed the question that was about to exit, and also came to the door to eavesdrop.
The room seemed to be silent for a long time before Xu Kuan's voice came out, "Everyone said, let's also set up a Peishui Gang, and we will be in a group in the future, okay?" ”
A smile flashed in Ruixue's eyes, and she gently pulled her sister-in-law back to the stove.
Sure enough, the house soon became lively, and there were loud voices from time to time, not leaving the gang, gang leader and other words, during which Zhang's sister-in-law went in to deliver tea twice, and when she came out, she pulled Ruixue and whispered about everyone's conversation.
Rui Xue doesn't care, anyway, she has already clicked on the words, it depends on how they act, besides, it was also played in the TV series, in the end, there is more money and more power, people's hearts will naturally change, and the gang will not always be harmonious, but that will be decades later, at least now these people will not fight anymore, and life will be better.
She pulled her sister-in-law Zhang, who was still going to listen to the corner, to sit down, and took out a few rabbit skins in the basket to compare, discussing how to put together a warm and comfortable scarf.
Before the end of the day, the door of the north house opened from the inside, and Xu Kuantou walked out, bowed deeply to Ruixue, and then said, "Today, there are more sisters who persuade each other, and all the brothers of the Peishui Gang will keep the kindness of the sisters in their hearts." ”
Rui Xue hurriedly stood up and saluted back, "Brother Xu is serious, I just said a few words of hearsay gossip, what kind of good words, the brothers take care of my small shop on weekdays, how can I watch everyone argue and not persuade me." ”
Xu Kuan smiled meaningfully, and gave his hand again, "Sister said this, but we can't think like this, in the future, if the sister is sent, the Peishui Gang will definitely go all out." Of course, we are all big bosses, and no one will take care of the accounts, and we need my sister to help me more. ”
"Brother Xu also knows that I am busy here, help manage the accounts, I am powerless, but Brother Xu can send someone to learn abacus and bookkeeping with me every afternoon, as long as you work hard, you will be out of the school in one or two months."
Xu Kuan's face was happy, thanked him again, and took the lead in paying for lunch, Rui Xue didn't shirk, opened the door and sent everyone out.
Sister-in-law Zhang picked up the wooden box containing the copper coin, put it in front of Rui Xue, and said with a smile, "No one will fight on this dock in the future, the face was covered with blood just now, and my legs were so scared that my legs were weak." ”
Rui Xue picked up the copper coin into the money bag, and seemed to inadvertently glance at the door, "No one can say what will happen in the future, at least in the next two years, it will be much more harmonious." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang nodded, pulled the bolt and went to clean up the table.
When I got home in the evening, Rui Xue cooked, and happened to see six teacups on the table in the hall, and I was curious, and asked, "There are guests at home?" ”
Zhao Fengnian said "hmm", which was a response, and then continued to bow his head to eat, Rui Xue raised his eyebrows, and he didn't care.
After washing up, Zhao Fengnian lay in the quilt, and Rui Xue told him about the things in the day while keeping accounts, which caused him to immediately glare, and scolded, "If there is such a thing in the future, you are not allowed to get involved." But when it comes to wealth and authority, there are a lot of dirty things behind it, and no one can get good results if they get it, not to mention that you are still a weak woman. ”
Rui Xue saw that he was really angry, and felt a little aggrieved in her heart, now the dock is not very prosperous, and no one covets her small shop, no one bullies her, but if it is another year and a half, the dock is lively, it will definitely not be her family, she will not take this opportunity to pull a backer, and there will be no helper in case of something.
Zhao Fengnian saw that she half-bowed her head and didn't speak, her little face was reflected by the oil lamp, her red lips were pouting angrily, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a shadow fell under her eyes, her little hands unconsciously fiddled with the brush, and her heart slowly softened, and her voice softened unconsciously.
"I'm doing this for your good, people's hearts are sinister, and when I teach that posterity to keep accounts, don't be troublesome."
His voice was already strong, and these words were coaxing Ruixue, the voice seemed to roll out from the depths of his throat, becoming more and more intoxicating in the quiet night, listening to Ruixue's ears, he had already put that little grievance behind his head, quickly put away the pen and paper, blew the lamp, got into the quilt, and said with a low smile, "I know that the shopkeeper is for my good, and I will be careful in the future." ”
Zhao Fengnian sniffed the faint woman's fragrance in front of him, dodged back, and lifted the quilt to cover half of his suddenly red cheeks.
Rui Xue felt his movements, laughed silently, closed her eyes, and gradually fell asleep with a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Early in the morning of the second day, as soon as Rui Xue and Sister-in-law Zhang arrived at the store, Xu Kuan brought a fifteen or sixteen-year-old half-old boy to Rui Xue, and said with a smile, "Sister, this kid's name is Stone, his home is in Xiaoping Mountain, his brain is active and capable, and he will learn skills from you in the future." Let him do any work, and if he is disobedient, tell me, and I will clean him up. ”
At first glance, the stone looks a little similar to the Wangcai who came a few days ago, with a round face and round eyes, and a very attractive appearance, but he looks darker and taller, and when he heard Xu Kuan finish speaking, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Master Xie taught me skills, and I will definitely do a good job in the future." ”
Ruixue pulled him up and said with a smile, "I only know a little bit of skin, as long as you study hard, but two months will be about the same." After speaking, he called the bolt over, "Although he is younger than you, but he started early, just call him Senior Brother, and you will get along well in the future." ”
The stone immediately nodded, saluted the bolt again, and called "senior brother".
Bolt listened to these two words, so beautiful that his face bloomed, and he also returned the salute, so he pulled him around to take a look, in fact, the stone is on the dock on weekdays, and this shop has also been to it twice, naturally not stranger, but he still followed behind the bolt with a smile, without the slightest impatience.
Rui Xue nodded secretly, the two children are in harmony, how can they get along for two or three months in the future, if they quarrel and disagree, she will have a headache.
Xu Kuan thanked him again, and then went out to get busy.
Sister-in-law Zhang came out with a cabbage, peeled the dried leaves on it, remembered what she heard when she went back last night, cautiously glanced at Ruixue's face, and asked, "Sister, have you thought about it, will the tofu be given to the people in the village?" ”
"Tofu?" Rui Xue glanced at her suspiciously, continued to brush the tea bowl, and said, "Didn't we agree the day before yesterday, why did my sister-in-law ask about this again?" ”
Sister-in-law Zhang put down the cabbage in her hand and said in surprise, "You don't know about the clan elders coming to the door yesterday, didn't Mr. Zhao tell you?" ”
"The clan elder came to the door? Why? Rui Xue wiped her hands on her apron and pulled her sister-in-law to sit at the table, "What the hell is going on, sister-in-law, tell me carefully." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang patted the soil on her hands, frowned and said, "When I went home last night, I still listened to Da Zhuang, it seems that in the afternoon, several clan elders went to your house and said to Mr. Zhao, you opened a shop at the dock, and you did a cheap job, which had an impact on Mr. 's reputation, and the people in the village were very dissatisfied... Hmm..."
"If there's anything else, sister-in-law, don't hide it from me." Rui Xue's face sank, urging Sister-in-law Zhang to finish the story.
Sister-in-law Zhang sighed, "Then I'll tell you all, the clan elders don't know if they listened to the nonsense of the long-tongued woman, thinking how profitable this tofu is, and wants you to give the method to the villagers." In the future, the village will divide your family's two acres of dry land, and it is said that you can also pay more..."
Before she could finish speaking, Rui Xue had already slammed the tea bowl, it was really a good person to be bullied, a horse was good to be ridden, these clan elders thought she was a muddy one?
At the beginning, she was still in a coma, so she married her without authorization, fortunately Zhao Fengnian is a good person, if she was a gambler who beat her daughter-in-law, wouldn't she have thrown her into the fire pit, if she hadn't asked for those bundles, I'm afraid they would have pretended to be confused and didn't give them, even now, Zhao Fengnian took classes for three months, and only accepted a month's bundles.
If she hadn't been a jade pendant and bought food supplies, they would probably have to drink wind now. Zhao Fengnian is not in good health, he will fall ill at any time, when the time comes, which of them will give him money to treat him, she doesn't open a shop, how will their husband and wife live in the future?
She made tofu, and thought about giving it to everyone in the village to taste, and even hiring them to sell it to other villages in the future, all to earn some silver money to supplement the family, but she didn't expect that these people actually coveted it first, and she was a bully, right?
Sister-in-law Zhang saw Ruixue lose her temper for the first time, and she was so frightened that she stood aside a little helplessly, not daring to speak.
Rui Xue gasped a few times, suppressed the anger in her heart, squatted down to pick up the broken pottery shards, and said, "It's okay, I accidentally broke the tea bowl." ”
Shi hurriedly ran to get a broom and a dustpan, and said with a smile, "I often make bowls at home, and my mother always says that the year is safe." ”
Rui Xue smiled and patted him on the shoulder, helping Sister-in-law Zhang peel cabbage, cut strips, and prepare the lunch meal, Sister-in-law Zhang guessed that she must have a plan in her heart, so she didn't say much.
At night, Ruixue soaked two large buckets of soybeans, and boiled hot water for a bath, when he entered the house, Zhao Fengnian was holding a pillow in one hand, looking through an old book by the light of the oil lamp, his long black hair half covered his face, and his slender white fingers pinched the yellowish pages, with an indescribable grace and nobility, as if he was not under the kang and facial bedding, but a luxurious sandalwood bed and brocade mink fur.
Rui Xue sighed in her heart, is such a man good or bad for her ordinary and ordinary?
Zhao Fengnian heard her sigh, looked up, and said, "Go to the kang, don't get caught in the cold." ”
Rui Xue immediately raised a big smile, took off her shoes and sat down beside him, her dark eyes stared firmly at Zhao Fengnian's face, like a child staring at a candy she had never seen, curious, joyful, and a little cowardly.
Zhao Fengnian was stared at and blushed, secretly annoyed, this woman was getting more and more unruly, so he coughed and asked, "I have something on my face?" ”
Rui Xue shook her head, and swept a few slightly wet hairs mischievously across Zhao Fengnian's forehead, the coldness made his heart tremble, his face became redder, he simply lay down and asked, "What do you have to say?" ”
Rui Xue blew out the lamp, took off her padded jacket, and got into the quilt, was silent for a long time, and asked, "The clan elders came yesterday?" ”
"Hmm." Zhao Fengnian replied lightly, but there was no follow-up.
Rui Xue was anxious, and leaned forward to him again, "What did they say, but they want me to close the shop and give them the method of making tofu?" ”
"Well, that's what I said."
"Then you agreed? But they have spoken ill of me, that I have ruined your reputation? Rui Xue's voice carried a hint of grievance, faintly afraid that he also thought the same as the people in the village.
"No," Zhao Fengnian seemed to hear her worries, and his voice was thick and firm, "You are my wife, I beat and scolded me so much that others can't say a word." ”
Ruixue only felt that a sweet spring was immediately poured on the dry heart, and her whole body was moisturized, a little, fine and dense touch, which made her nose sour, and tears fell silently. At this moment, she suddenly thanked the great god of time and space for sending her to this time and space, and she even wanted to loudly announce to the world that this domineering man, this man who protects her short, is her Qin Ruixue's husband...
The soft and delicate little hand gently passed under the quilt and firmly put it into the thin and slender big hand, "Thank you..."
"Hmm", the man slowly clenched his palms and responded lightly, but if he listened carefully, there was a slight trilling in his voice...
The north wind blows, the snowflakes drift, and a few dead leaves finally reluctantly leave the treetops, so cold and silent winter night, everything is frozen to lose its vitality, but under the dilapidated thatched hut, there are two seedlings of love, in the hearts of the man and woman holding hands, growing happily...
