When Steward Zhang arrived in Wucun, he saw a group of people holding iron chisels and wooden sticks to trap You Feng with ropes, staring at him fiercely.

As soon as the villagers saw one or two more carriages entering the village, a middle-aged man in his forties stepped out of the carriage, dressed as if he was from the town.

The village chief stood up from the crowd and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Zhang Erzhu stepped forward and bowed his hand, and said politely: "I am the housekeeper of the town's Zhou Mansion, my name is Zhang Erzhu, and I am here to send an invitation to Fan Junjiang today." ”

The mullet glanced back and forth between him and You Feng.

"He, do you recognize him!" asked You Feng, who was tied up, as he stretched out his hand.

"Know, he is the person next to our third young master. ”

The mullet sneered sarcastically: "Heh! Your Zhou Mansion is inviting people or robbing people, and when they get in discord, they will forcibly take people away, how can there be such a reason in the world." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, he is young and ignorant, please don't be like him. ”

Zhang Erzhu really can't say it, the entourage around his own young master, he must be the young master's attention when he comes here, and he can't say that he was ordered by the third young master to rob a lot of people!

It's hard to be a man, it's even harder to be a good housekeeper!

Fan Junjiang doesn't want to make a big fuss, if it really makes a big fuss, it won't be good for anyone, after all, people are rich and powerful, but he is a small common man, even if he is sent to the government, the county lord is just making a show, and he will release people in a blink of an eye, and it will not be good for him, so why bother to stiffen.

"Village chief, I don't have anything to do, just let him go and give him a chance. ”

The mullet didn't care about him when he saw it, and he didn't want to make a fight, and he also gave himself a step down, so he nodded reluctantly, went to You Feng and reprimanded him a few words, before letting him go, and turned back to the villagers and shouted:

"Let's all go back, it's okay. ”

The villagers walked back in twos and threes, and while walking, they were also discussing, what kind of shit luck did this Fan Junjiang's family take, and even the housekeeper in the town came to invite him personally.

The villagers dispersed, and Fan Junjiang invited Zhang Erzhu into his house.

"Brother Zhang, we don't have any good tea in the countryside, and we usually drink this boiled water. ”

He took the bowl and waved his hand:

"Brother Fan, don't forget, this is good. After a pause, he asked what was going on.

He didn't hide it when he arrived, and told the housekeeper everything before and after.

After listening, Zhang Erzhu sighed, what is this called, he patted his ass and left, and he had to clean up the mess.

"Brother Fan, Master Zhou didn't let the Third Young Master say those words at all, he originally wanted to invite you to a meal to enhance the relationship, but I didn't expect the Third Young Master to make his own opinions, don't be like him, it's all spoiled by his aunt. ”

He smiled, if it weren't for the novelty of the furniture, you Master Zhou could invite me to eat with a mud leg?

Obviously, that's impossible, so some things are still said to be half and half left, so as not to hurt each other's feelings.

"How can I be like a child, who doesn't make a mistake when he's young. He shook his hand, indicating that he didn't care about it.

Zhang Erzhu looked at him as if he didn't take it to heart, his nervous heart was slightly lowered, he paused, took out a rectangular red invitation card from his sleeve, and handed it to Fan Junjiang.

"This is Master Zhou is afraid that something will go wrong, so he sent me to send you an invitation in person, and asked Brother Fan to come to the door on time tomorrow, and I will be waiting for you at that time. ”

"Brother Zhang, where is this, I will arrive tomorrow in time, and I will ask Brother Zhang to go back and say hello to Master Zhou for me. ”

"Okay, okay, I'll bring it as soon as I get it. ”

After dinner in the evening, Fan Junjiang called Yuqi to his room and took out the red invitation.

Yuqi took the invitation and read it quickly at a glance and ten lines, and the sound of 'pop' stopped.

"Father, come, I'll tell you. ”

He saw the big girl's mischievous hooking fingers and squeezing his eyebrows, smiled and lowered his head, and put his ear close to her.

After Zhu Yan finished cleaning up and entered the house, she saw the father and daughter talking here, looking very sweet, a little tasteful, she was pregnant and born in October, not close to herself, but close to his father, pouting, with her butt on the side, with a face full of words I am jealous.

Yuqi raised her head and looked at her mother suspiciously, this pouting mouth can hang two taels of sesame oil.

"Mother, you are angry, say, whoever makes you angry, I will beat him. ”

He glanced at the lady, this is careful, the eldest girl kisses herself, this is jealous.

He smiled and shook his head, quickly got up and poured a glass of water for the lady, saving a moment of sprinkling his anger on himself.

Zhu Yan stretched out her finger and poked her little forehead: "You little conscienceless, I gave birth to you in October, but now it's good, you and your father don't know how to kiss me." ”

Yuqi was stunned, and looked at her mother dumbfounded, she was jealous.

"Hehe, mother, let me tell you, I made my father happy, and my father won't have the strength to make you happy!" After speaking, he blinked his eyes twice, and without waiting for his mother to come back to his senses, he turned around and ran out.

Zhu Yan was stunned, and when she wanted to understand what she meant, she blushed and muttered: "Dead girl, see how I clean you up tomorrow." ”

The next day, just in time for the beginning of winter, early in the morning, a family of five set off, he was invited to go to the restaurant to eat, the remaining four just went to the town to go around, buy some cloth, come back to make winter clothes.

When he was about to go out, Yuqi took the woodcarved peony potted plant and handed it to his father, and after a few simple words, he set off with his mother's footsteps.

When they arrived in the town, Fan Junjiang and Zhu Yan separated, and the two made an appointment to meet at the town gate.

Zhu Yan took her three times to the cloth shop, and when she entered the store, she had all kinds of coarse cloth, arrowroot cloth, cotton cloth, muslin cloth, and fine silk worn in winter.

There was a red satin on the counter, Zhu Yan looked at it at a glance, looked at it, and carefully touched it with her hands, which was different from the texture of the coarse cloth.

"Xiao Er, how can you sell this silk?"

"Eldest sister, you are really good-looking, this silk is a commodity that has just come in, and now it is very popular in the capital, this horse is fifteen taels of silver. ”

"Fifteen taels?"

Zhu Yan exclaimed, oh my God, this is too expensive, just this one horse is enough for his own expenses for several years.

Reaching out and putting the silk back down, he turned his head to look at something else.

Xiao Er pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything unpleasant, like this fifteen taels of cloth, that is, those people in the town who have silver can wear it, and they really can't afford it in ordinary people.

After a long walk, I finally picked up cheap and affordable fabrics in a cloth store, and my mother was ruthless, one person bought two pieces of clothing materials, and bought twenty-seven catties of cotton, except for making cotton clothes, the rest was to make new quilts. The twenty-seven pounds of cotton were rolled one by one, tightly together, and packed in a large bag along with the cotton cloth.

Zhu Yan saw that this thing was large and heavy, and it was not convenient to go out for a meal, so it was still early to see if the time was better than the conjunction, so he simply put the thing here first, and waited for himself to find an ox cart to pull it.

said hello to the shopkeeper, the four of them turned around and left the store, found a small shop nearby, and one of the four came to a bowl of pork noodles.

――

At that time, in the private room of the restaurant, Zhou Kang was very interested in the pot of wood carvings in Fan Junjiang's hand, and fiddled back and forth in his hand.

"Yes, that's good, you carved this thing too? After watching for a while, I put the wood carving on the dining table, and I saw this middle-aged man with my heartfelt admiration.

"No, no, it's not mine, he heard that I came out today, so he dragged me to the takeout. ”

"Oh, I see, how much silver did he say this thing sells?"

Fan Junjiang's hand paused for a moment, looked at him and said:

"Thirty taels. ”

Zhou Kang Wenyan nodded:

"If you want to say that this thing is ten taels or eighty taels, you can still say that it is too expensive, and few people will buy it. He shook his head regretfully.

He smiled disapprovingly, which really made the eldest girl right.

"In the eyes of the poor, thirty taels is expensive, but in the eyes of the rich is a matter of a meal, far away, I don't know how many rich people there are in the county, but in this town, there are really a lot of rich people, just this wood carving, that is still the only one in the town, if you take it to the county to sell, I'm afraid thirty taels are more than that. ”

Zhou Kang looked at him in astonishment, if he wanted to say that he was surprised by what he said just now, then now he let himself underestimate him, he didn't expect this country man to have his own ideas, but what he said is also right, the rich are not willing to lose face, they are all comparisons, this thing is exquisite, novel, and the color is bright, it can be completely fake, if it is placed in the hall, it is also unique.
