【038】Panting
The second brother Fan Junyan and the third Fan Junliang also looked at the fourth brother and thought that the fourth brother was too stubborn.
Fan Junjiang shook his head with a smile: "Big brother, the person who was going to buy furniture just now is the shopkeeper of the 'auspicious furniture' shop in the town that sells finished furniture. "Last year, when I went to his shop to find a job, I may not be able to see the handiwork of the furniture, and after saying a few words, I may have spoken too straightforwardly, and I was almost beaten, so as soon as he came, I recognized him.
The three brothers looked at each other, so it was, no wonder the fourth child's expression just now seemed to be constipated, and the feeling of this shopkeeper was that he wanted to buy it back and steal it, and by the way, he was selling it at a high price, which was really hateful.
"Since this shopkeeper has sold eighty taels, it seems that there is still this furniture that is easy to sell for one hundred taels. As soon as the fourth brother said this, the three brothers also relaxed and sat quietly on the ground.
From time to time, someone came to ask the price, from the original nervousness to say a hundred taels, to now say a hundred taels, as if a change of mentality, although most of the people shook their heads and walked away, but still praised the exquisite furniture. The town is not too big, there are only a few furniture sellers in total, and Fan Junjiang's unique furniture soon spread all over the town and also reached the ears of the furniture sellers.
-- The front yard of the Zhou Mansion
The housekeeper looked at his little servant with deep eyes, and asked with a calm face, "What you said is true?"
"Even if it is a thousand guts for the little one, the little one will not dare to lie in front of your old man, and I also saw with my own eyes that the shopkeeper of the 'auspicious' shop also went to buy it, but in the end he returned empty-handed. Seeing that Steward Zhang didn't believe what he said, the little guy almost stretched out his hand and swore an oath.
"Do you know why the auspicious shopkeeper returned empty-handed?"
The little girl's eyes rolled upward, remembering the scene.
It seems that the auspicious shopkeeper dislikes the furniture and sells it too expensive, so he threw his sleeves and left in a fit of anger. ”
Steward Zhang groaned and waved his hand: "I know, you go down to the account room to receive the reward." ”
The little guy finally looked forward to this reward, overjoyed, grinned and said, "Thank you, butler, thank you, butler." He said as he stepped back and bowed.
When he got out of the door of Steward Zhang's room, he ran away, and the speed was even faster than that of a rabbit.
Zhang Erzhu (Steward Zhang) watched the little guy leave, walked two steps back and forth in the house, and thought about the 'auspicious shopkeeper', what kind of person is that, that is more shrewd than the monkey has gone, it can be seen that this furniture is not ordinary, it seems that this thing is not simple, patted the table, raised his feet and walked briskly towards the courtyard of Master Zhou.
After listening to his housekeeper's words, Zhou Kang's face changed color slightly, but he quickly recovered, his fingers holding the teacup tightened, and he was curious about what was worthy of the old fox.
"Go yourself, take the silver ticket, buy the furniture anyway, and make sure it doesn't fall into the old fellow's hands. ”
Steward Zhang bowed his head in response, turned around and left in a hurry, not seeing the third young master Zhou Yong not far from the door.
Zhou Yong looked coldly at the butler's hurried back, his good-looking embroidered eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and he casually beckoned a small servant: "Do you know what the butler is doing?"
The little guy shook his head: "Back to the third young master, I don't know the little one." ”
Zhou Yong looked at his father's house, looked at the back of the housekeeper leaving, and raised his eyebrows: "Go down." ”
You Feng saw that the little guy had gone away, and attached it to Zhou Yong's ear: "Young master, do you want to go down and investigate?"
Zhou Yong thought for a while and shook his head: "No, it's not good to turn around and reach the ears of the old man." ”
――
People came and went in the town, and there were many people who asked about furniture, and finally everyone left, Fan Junjiang just sat down and wanted to take a breath and drink some water, when he heard the cry of a startled woman.
"I finally found you!" Fei'er was pleasantly surprised, and stepped forward to grab Fan Junjiang, her face full of excitement.
The eldest child, the second child, and the third child looked at their younger brother suspiciously at the same time, looking at the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and wondered, what is the trouble with this fourth child.
The third Fan Junliang stabbed Fan Junyan beside him: "Second brother, you said this woman, will it be?" ”
When the eldest heard this, he turned around and glared at the third child: "What nonsense, you just give the fourth child that guts, he doesn't dare." ”
Fan Junyan smiled: "I was trained, I deserve it, what kind of character the fourth child has, you don't know it, and you are still figuring it out here." ”
"I don't mean anything else, that's what I said. Fan Junliang shrugged his shoulders.
"Shhhh Fan Junyan was also very curious, and craned his neck to look at them.
Fan Junjiang lowered his head and looked at her who was more than a head shorter than himself, a trace of blush rose on his dark face, except for his mother-in-law, this was the first time that a woman was so close to him, and she could smell the rouge powder on her body.
"Girl, men and women can't stand it clearly, and please let go of the girl, I'm a man It's nothing, I'm afraid you're not good. ”
Scarlet immediately let go of his arm in a panic and took two steps back, thinking of saying thank you, but when he raised his eyes to meet his deep and big eyes, somehow, his heart suddenly burst twice, and then the two hurriedly looked away.
Scarlet bit her red lip, glanced at him secretly, saw that he was standing uncomfortably, there was a trace of shyness on his face, standing in front of him could still smell the smell of a mature man, the closer he got to him, the more he felt safe, and the whole body and mind felt very comfortable.
Fan Junfeng looked at the woman coldly for a moment, looking at her expression and eyes, he realized that something was wrong, and he was watching the fourth child stand there awkwardly and helpless, obviously he didn't see that the woman had affection for him.
"Ahem, girl, what's the matter with your brother?"
The eldest brother's voice solved his embarrassment, and just took the opportunity to return to the third brother's side and drink a few sips of water, burping, feeling not so thirsty, before putting down the water bladder.
"Oh, my third aunt is looking for you. Scarlet came back to her senses, looked at her and was excited, and almost delayed her business.
"Third aunt?" This time it was not only Fan Junjiang who was not calm, but three people.
"Fourth, what the hell is going on?"
"Yes, fourth. ”
Fan Junjiang was also puzzled and turned his head to look at her.
Seeing that several of them were questioning him, Fei'er hurriedly said, "Don't worry, it's like this." ”
After saying it, the eldest one, the second one, and the third eldest breathed a sigh of relief, and the feeling was to find the fourth child to make furniture.
The third roared in a low voice: "Then why didn't you say it earlier." "I thought this fourth and third aunts.
Scarlet was yelled at by the third child, and tears instantly appeared in her eyes, she pursed her lips, and stubbornly held back her tears.
Fan Junjiang almost cried when he saw her, he was embarrassed, and scratched his head twice: "I." I just wanted to apologize, but I was interrupted by my eldest brother.
"Girl, we happen to have a set of furniture here, you can see it, it's definitely better than last time, if your third aunt likes it too much, I'll buy it for you for a hundred taels." ”
Fan Junjiang didn't give the fourth child a chance to apologize, and the third child didn't say anything wrong, since she was buying furniture, she hurried to get down to business, saving her from looking at her like an angry little daughter-in-law, as if someone wronged her, she was unhappy to look at, and she didn't want the fourth child to have too much contact with her.
Fan Junjiang saw that the eldest brother seemed to be angry, frowned puzzled, and then followed the eldest brother's words: "My brother is right, you should go back and ask, I won't be working on the set of furniture I made for your wife last time." ”
"Yes, girl, you better go back and ask, otherwise it will be sold later, and your third aunt will know and punish you." The second child also couldn't get used to her pretentiousness, and wanted to send her away as soon as possible.
Scarlet looked at the furniture behind them, which was even more eye-catching than the one in Madame's room.
One hundred taels! Don't say it's a hundred taels, even if it's a thousand taels, as long as the third aunt wants it, the old man doesn't have to pay for it.
"No, you can just pull up the furniture and go straight to it. After reading the furniture, Scarlet made a decision without hesitation.
"What can you do, master?" the third fan, Junliang, didn't believe that when the master's affairs would have to be decided by a girl.
Although Fei'er was angry that they were talking inappropriately, she still looked soft and weak in front of Fan Junjiang, and her slightly curled eyelashes blocked her poisonous eyes.
"If you go, you can know if the third aunt wants it, and if you don't go, how can you know if you don't want it?" The gentle voice hung with a smile of Shi Yi, and asked Fan Junliang rhetorically
