Chapter 145: Selection
Naturally, everyone said yes in unison, Heizi and Da Zhuang walked all the way with the tray just now, and they almost drooled greedily, thinking that they could feast at night, and they were extremely happy.
The bolt stood aside, his face was full of envy, Rui Xue has always been thoughtful, how could he not think of this little apprentice, called him to him, and said with a smile, "I will go back to eat with the master in a while, and I will stay at the master's house at night, and I will come back tomorrow morning." ”
The bolt's eyes lit up immediately, and he looked at the tables and chairs in the shop with some hesitation, and whispered, "Master, I'd better stay and watch the shop." ”
Rui Xue patted this sensible boy lovingly, "The shop has no gold or silver, just a bunch of tables and chairs, and if you lose it, you will lose it, and at night you will send a plate of dried tofu to Lao Shen opposite them, and a pound of grain wine, and they will help take care of it." ”
"Okay, master, I'll go and prepare." The bolt almost jumped up with joy, the last time I heard my father talk about the master's new house, he was itchy, I didn't expect to be able to go and see it today, and I had to stay for one night, which really made him happy.
Everyone steamed half a pot of steamed buns, simply padd their stomachs, returned the tables and chairs to their original places, wiped them clean, and Zhang's sister-in-law went to the mountains to pick some wild vegetables, and closed the shop early and returned to the village.
In the evening, the two elders of the Yun family, as well as Zhou Xi's family, picked up Erzhuang and Yaya and a few children back, set up the banquet, everyone drank wine lively, and the bolt was pulled by Heizi and Da Zhuang in the front yard and backyard for a few laps, looking at everything fresh, sitting on the table, and then looking at the exquisite dishes, I just felt that it was a fairy-like day.
Qian Heitan, Zhang Dahe, and Gao Fuquan were drinking, thinking about the daughter-in-law at home, and they were a little distracted, Gao Fuquan guessed, so he patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the boss is so careful and kind, how could you forget your daughter-in-law, just now my family Heizi has already sent food to his Aunt Qian, you can rest assured to drink." ”
Qian Heitan laughed a few times, scratched his head, and rejoined the ranks of the wine, Zhao Fengnian raised his glass and saluted everyone, "Today's poetry meeting is so smooth, thanks to your great help, business will be good in the future, and naturally I will not treat you badly." ”
"The shopkeeper's words are serious, this is what we should do." Everyone hurriedly responded in unison, and their hearts were very happy, so that the Lord's house, which saw their hard work, was the greatest blessing for the worker.
Zhao Fengnian got up and went into the house to get a list, and said, "Li Zheng sent a list yesterday, all of them are people in the village who want to come to our workshop to work, our husband and wife have a short life in the village, and their character is unknown. That's all for the specific functions, and Kuroko reads the list. ”
Kuroko took the task, he was very happy, held up his small chest, and read the name as a poem, which made everyone laugh.
Every time he reads a person's name, everyone either praises a few words of diligence and honesty, or shakes their heads and says that this person is cunning, in less than two moments, he has finished picking, three men, two surnamed Yun, are the sons of two cousins of Second Uncle Yun, and the other surname is Zhang, which can be regarded as Zhang Dahe's own family, originally Zhang Dahe and Second Uncle Yun were afraid that the main family would suspect them of favoritism, and wanted to explain a few words, but I didn't expect Zhao Fengnian to ask half a sentence, and it was decided directly, which added another layer of gratitude to the two of them, in fact, it was really a coincidence, The two of them were selected completely according to their personal conduct and diligence, and these three people have many brothers in their families, and their lives are relatively poor, so they can be regarded as helping.
The woman was Cui Niang and Sister-in-law Zhang, who selected two young and diligent people, and the most important thing is that they have a strict mouth and never spread nonsense in the village, such people don't have to worry about causing trouble for the Zhao family in the future.
The main family is prosperous, the people who do things underneath, of course, also feel happy, the matter is settled, the banquet is more lively, straight to drink for an hour, the men are walking and shaking, the women help pick up the dishes and chopsticks, and divide some dishes and go out, Zhang's sister-in-law instructed Da Zhuang to take his younger siblings home, and went to the village south of the mother-in-law with a big pottery bowl, the old Zhang mother-in-law saw that the eldest daughter-in-law came, smiled so that the wrinkles in the corners of her eyes were wrinkled together, and shouted one after another, "Eldest daughter-in-law, come over so late?" ”
"Mother, just now the Zhao family set up a banquet, and the dishes made by Mrs. Zhao herself, I left some for you and my father to have dinner tomorrow morning."
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Zhang took the vegetable bowl, opened it and saw that it was her favorite chicken stewed mushroom, and the smile was even more sincere, but thinking about what the second daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law said when they came over during the day, her face darkened again, and she pulled the eldest daughter-in-law to sit, hesitated for a while, and said, "Eldest daughter-in-law, my mother always felt that you provoked the boss to be close to me, so I didn't give you a lot of face, but my mother treated you badly." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang didn't know why her mother-in-law, who had always treated her meanly, said this, she was not moved, but she was very worried, and said repeatedly, "Whatever my mother said, it was my daughter-in-law who was not good, and it made my mother angry." ”
Mrs. Zhang sighed, knowing that she had treated this eldest daughter-in-law too lightly before, so that she couldn't believe herself for a while, so she could only get along with each other in the future.
"Your second brother and third brother's family are here today, and they want me and your father to tell you and the boss for them, the Zhao family is recruiting workers this time, recruiting both their husbands and wives, and life will be better in the future..."
Sister-in-law Zhang didn't wait for her mother-in-law to finish speaking, she was anxious, her mother-in-law didn't treat her well, she could bear it, but if she wanted to send those two pairs of lazy brothers into the Zhao family, she would never agree, their family had a good life today thanks to the trust and support of the Zhao family and the couple, how could they not pit others.
"Mother, Dahe and I are working in the Zhao family, we don't count the recruitment matter, besides, I just heard Zhao Niangzi say two words, this time only three men and two women are recruited, and it is impossible for our family to choose."
She thought that Mrs. Zhang would immediately jump to her feet and scold, but unexpectedly, the old lady was unusual, nodded and agreed, "I also told your brothers and concubines like this, what are the two of them, your father and I know in our hearts, I really went to the Zhao family, I am afraid that I will lose the errand for you and Dahe." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang was stunned for a long time and didn't dare to answer, but the old man Zhang, who was smoking dry tobacco on the side, spoke, "Your mother is right, if they go to your house to make trouble, you and Dahe can just bring them to the old house, and your mother and I will train them." ”
"Hey, hey, okay." Zhang's sister-in-law responded, reluctantly said a few more gossips and came back to her house, lay on the kang with Zhang Dahe at night, talked about it, and then stabbed Zhang Dahe, puzzled, "You say, is our mother playing with any ideas again, why don't you protect your two brothers, and suddenly think about our family?" ”
Zhang Dahe wanted to say a few words for his mother, but when he remembered all the things in the past, he shut up again, and held back a sentence for a while, "Maybe I'm afraid that the second and third children won't support them, so you can send some things over with logistics." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang glared at him, and said with a slight annoyance, "When will I send less things, your mother pointed at my nose and scolded, I didn't send meat and noodles as usual." ”
"Yes, yes, it's better for my daughter-in-law." Zhang Dahe hurriedly said good things, and the couple remembered that the days would be better and better in the future, and they were very down-to-earth in their hearts, and slowly hugged each other and fell asleep.
In Zhao's house, which was separated by a wall, Rui Xue settled down and lived with Wu Yu on a kang, so he went back to the house, and after taking a bath, he asked Zhao Fengnian while wiping his hair, "When will Xiucai return the four treasures of the study, and when you return them to the calligraphy and painting shop, remember to help me find out if there are any books such as acrobatics." ”
She didn't hear Zhao Fengnian's response for a long time, so she sat down at the table, pulled the pen in his hand, and said angrily, "I'm talking to you, why don't you answer." ”
Zhao Fengnian smiled bitterly, thought about it and thought, and couldn't hide it, so it was better to tell the truth, "Today's poetry club originally arranged manpower, but as a result, I was suddenly called to compose a poem, and I was in a hurry, so I read out the poem that was originally used to win the championship?" ”
"Huh?" Rui Xue blinked and suddenly reacted, "In other words, the show that won the championship is genuine, he took away the four treasures of the study, will he return it?" ”
Zhao Fengnian nodded helplessly, Rui Xue's heart hurt as if she had been cut meat, and she pulled the cloth towel under her hand, "That's two hundred taels, the dock shop will be busy for half a year to earn it back, so it's gone." Who told you to compose a poem, I knew that such a branch would be born, so I tied him up and hung him from a tree in advance! ”
Zhao Fengnian saw that her ruddy little face was bulging with anger, and he laughed in his heart, pulled her to sit in front of him, and said while wiping her hair, "It's the second son of the Chu family who sent fine cotton last time, this person is not a simple person, he can bend and stretch, and his mind is unpredictable, if you deal with him in the future, you should be careful." ”
Rui Xue heard that it was Chu Ershao, and she was stunned in her heart, last time because of him, the couple almost broke up, and at this time this person came out again and broke her wealth, is it a coincidence or deliberate?
She quietly glanced at Zhao Fengnian, and there was no annoyed look on her face, and the string in her heart was loosened, and she gritted her teeth and smiled, "Don't worry, he can only suffer from me, and he will definitely not take advantage." These two hundred taels, together with the enmity I provoked last time, I will record them in the account book, and I will double them all up one day. ”
Chu Gehuan, who was drinking with Bai Zhanpeng in Lingfeng City, sneezed fiercely, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Is it going to change the sky?" ”
Bai Zhanpeng took a sip of the fine lotus brew in the cup and sneered, "Maybe the woman who was hurt by you is secretly cursing with you." ”
Chu Gehuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I, Chu Ershao, am a famous person who cherishes flowers, and the women only look forward to me going, but they don't curse me." ”
Bai Zhanpeng smiled and filled his wine glass for him, "I'll visit friends tomorrow, and when you have time, you can visit your confidantes." ”
"But to Zhao's house? Then I'll go with you. ”
