At first, the two old ladies didn't react.

After all, business is smooth these days, even if they are in the county, the big shopkeeper of Zhenwei Pavilion will not take Qiao with them, and they look down on people with their eyes.

Unexpectedly, in this jujube village, the two of them were deflated.

It was as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly.

I only heard Village Chief Wu repeat: "Although the forest in Zaozhuang is not as good as the pond, but the large area on the mountain and under the mountain is not small, not to say much all year round, but tens of thousands of catties of bamboo shoots must be there, we have to sign a ten-year contract, it is not a small amount of money, you women don't understand, or go to the family to talk about men!" ”

Village Chief Wu felt that he was easy to speak.

But the two old ladies were almost going to blow up.

are all characters who are accustomed to being masters at home, how can they stand such a wretch?

Mi-young's grandmother is angry.

But because it was at a relative's house, Mrs. Shi didn't want her and her aunt to be difficult, so she was busy opening her mouth before she spoke:

"Village Chief Wu, let's be reasonable, this trip to Zaozhuang is also your message, otherwise we don't know that you have bamboo shoots to collect, my wife heard that your new daughter-in-law is also our pond, the countryside, everyone lives close, didn't she hear that our Siying workshop is the master of long hair?"

That's a bit ironic.

It is ironic that Village Chief Wu is pedantic and looks down on women.

But there is no way, the words are so thorough, the village chief of Zaozhuang still insists on changing people to talk, naturally, this is impossible.

The matter of harvesting bamboo shoots has collapsed here.

Village Chief Wu proudly waved his sleeves and left.

Uncle Wu glanced at everyone apologetically, and then quickly caught up.

It took a few families outside the courtyard to catch up with the village chief:

"Village chief, what's the matter with your old man? Didn't you deserve it well before you came, as long as you could harvest bamboo shoots? Why do you suddenly have to change people to talk? The Siying workshop was started by my cousin and a few of their women, we want the workshop to collect bamboo shoots, isn't it better to talk to them than to find others? ”

Village Chief Wu looked at Cousin Wu with a somewhat uncertain expression.

Before he came, he really felt that as long as the workshop could collect the bamboo shoots in the village, even if he couldn't press the penny or two catties in the pond, it would be enough to collect three catties or four catties from them.

But the point is, isn't that not seeing people?

He also thought that these people in Shijia Village had three heads and six arms, and they could actually make a workshop, sell bamboo shoots and sell them for a lot of money, but he didn't expect this to be a big disappointment, and at the same time, he couldn't help but have other ideas.

Village women can make good deals, he was the village chief, and he was able to give birth to two sons of talented masters, can his luck be worse than that of a woman with long hair?

Anyway, as long as the bamboo shoots in the village can be sold and the villagers have money to earn, they will only be grateful to him, and who cares who they sell to?

However, Uncle Wu and Siying Workshop are still related.

He couldn't have said it too clearly.

This is the selfishness of Village Chief Wu.

patting Cousin Wu's shoulder, Village Chief Wu said meaningfully:

"Wu Meng, I heard that the sour bamboo shoots from their Siying workshop were sold to Zhenwei Pavilion and sold for six yuan a pound! Add a little sour water and sell it for an extra penny, if we sell it cheaply for a penny and a few catties, the village can't make any money, I have to think about it. ”

"Don't! What do you think? After this village, there will be no such shop, and the village chief! ”

Uncle Wu was anxious, "You also said that you are a fellow villager, then this price can be negotiated!" If nothing else, just rush to the workshop and my cousin's share, can she still not take care of me as a cousin? ”

"In recent years, the jujube trees in our village have often suffered from insect pests, every autumn harvest, the harvest is not as good as a season, the Liu family also thinks that our jujube insects, last year we didn't accept it, we didn't find the next home in the spring, finally the bamboo shoots can bring some livelihood to every household in the village, what else is there to think about?"

Uncle Wu's reasoning has been broken.

But once people have selfish intentions, it is not a matter of words that can be explained.

Village Chief Wu resolutely hit the south wall.

Uncle Wu couldn't make sense of him.

The honest man went home with an angry face.

At this time, the rain had already come out to the courtyard, ready to get on the ox cart, and said goodbye to the reluctant Wu Wang.

The Wu Wang family is old and refined.

When her son came back with a look of annoyance and disappointment, she knew that the deal was going to be a failure.

The old man sighed in his heart, but he didn't say much, after all, the village chief was too powerful in the village, and there were two talented sons among his six sons.

The old man was very apologetic and gave a large bag of dried dates as a subsidy.

Uncle Wu didn't mention the bamboo shoot harvest again.

took his son on foot, sent him out of the village with kind words, and turned his head decadently when he watched the ox cart go away.

Shi Yu took the time to look back, and then looked at the two old ladies who didn't know when they were already full of complicated faces, and she was speechless in her heart.

Come to this plane these days.

It was also the first time she had met such a character as Village Chief Wu.

However, in the morning, Huang's exhortation was not taken seriously, and at this time, Shi Yu deeply understood the true meaning of Huang's sentence - 'In this world, men still have the final say'.

The terrible feudal dynasty and the low status of women are a little experienced.

On the way back, the three women did not speak.

Wang Yong didn't dare to say anything.

The ox cart staggered, and it took more than half an hour to reach Tonggu Town.

February 11.

The market in Tonggu Town.

It was close to noon.

The sun is getting hotter.

But the bluestone streets are full of people and crowded.

There are small vendors everywhere, eating, drinking, chewing, pollen ornaments, daily necessities, etc., selling everything, although it is a small town, but it is extremely prosperous, Qingshui Town is not comparable.

After passing a stall selling wontons, the old lady Shi, who had already cleaned up her mood, said:

"It's not too early, let's get old, this little one can't be, the four girls haven't been hungry since they were children, let's go after eating a bowl of wontons at this stall."

Shi Yu couldn't wait, "Then stop and eat a bowl of ravioli, milk, I haven't been here yet, we'll go shopping and go back later!" ”

Meiying's grandmother and grandson are interesting, and the two naturally won't say anything.

Wang Yong looked for a place to park the ox cart.

The two old ladies took Shi Yu to find a place.

It's just that the business of this wonton stall is so good, almost all of them are full, and the big guy has been looking for a circle, until Wang Yong comes back, and this is considered to be in place.

But it's also about sharing a table with people.

The old lady greeted the man:

"Little brother, the stalls are full, can you let the old woman and a few family members squeeze together?"

The young man who was eating slowly looked up, his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a handsome and jade-like carved face came into everyone's eyes, everyone was stunned, and they were confused by the man's beauty for a while, and it took a while to react.

The man seemed to be used to it.

There is a smile on the corner of his mouth, and there is a gentle and intoxicating dimple on his cheek:

"Sit down, old man, I'm running out of money."

Shi Yu was also fascinated by the other party's beauty.

But it was only in a trance that she regained her freedom - men in the world should be handsome and pretty, who doesn't like good-looking men? But, how can it be done without masculinity?

Shi Yu raised her eyebrows, only to feel that an unknown emotion passed through her heart, so fast that she couldn't catch it if she wanted to.

And at the moment when she was entangled, the man met the pair of watery apricot eyes, and a touch of surprise quickly flew away in his starry eyes.

It seems familiar, but it also seems strange.

Nodding with a smile, the man had already gotten up and paid to leave.

Shi Yu couldn't control himself a little, and quickly stepped forward to stop people:

"Hey, you're ......"

The man stopped smiling, his height was more than half taller than Shi Yu, and his condescending posture, although he smiled gently, oppressed Shi Yu almost out of breath:

"Girl, what's wrong?"

Shi Yu didn't speak.

But subconsciously pressed the position of the heart, there, there was a throbbing as if to break through the cage and rush out of it.

Mrs. Shi didn't know what was wrong with her granddaughter.

She is the same as Meiying's grandmother, she will think that Shi Yu's girl is too abnormal, this man is good-looking, so she can't stop people like this, right?

One is rude, the other is unruly, and then this man is dressed simply, looking at his body without long things, but his extraordinary bearing is not fake, even if he is not the son of a high-ranking official family, it must be a child of a rich and noble family, no matter what it is, they ordinary people can't afford to offend.

The two old men hurriedly nodded and apologized, and one of them pulled Shi Yu aside, for fear that she would make any bad moves again.

That boy has a good temper.

Chong Shiyu smiled, "Girl, don't do this next time, it's not in line with the courtesy." ”

After that, I left.

Shi Yu chased with stubborn eyes, and watched people go far away, so he was willing to withdraw his gaze.

And at this time, the other three pairs of eyes were staring straight at her.

Shi Yu felt embarrassed at this time:

"What... What's wrong? I, I, don't I just look at people? It's not that I like him, I think he's familiar! It's true! ”
