Chapter 34 Business
"Cousin, why didn't you go to find your eldest brother?"
Mu Yuyan came to Shanhuyuan, and unexpectedly saw Mu Lingchuan practicing calligraphy in the study.
Early this morning, she went to her eldest brother's yard to meet Mu Lingchuan by chance, but she didn't want Mu Lingchuan to go to her eldest brother's yard.
Only then did she endure her shyness and came to Shanhuyuan to find Mu Lingchuan.
"Something is delayed, but my cousin has something?"
Mu Lingchuan put down the brush, came to the side to wash his hands, and took the handkerchief handed over by Mu Zhong to dry his hands.
He came to the table and sat down, looking at Mu Yuyan with a cold gaze.
Mu Yuyan's cheeks turned crimson when he saw it, and her voice couldn't help but decrease, "I, I remember that my cousin is good at painting, so I want to ask my cousin to help me draw a picture of butterflies and flowers." ”
Mu Zhong raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at his son-in-law thoughtfully, is this a peach blossom blooming?
Mu Lingchuan looked faint and refused, "My cousin is mistaken, Lingchuan is not good at painting, my cousin should ask my cousin for help." ”
Mu Yuyan glanced at the little maid who came with her, took a food box from her hand, put it on the table, opened the food box and brought out a plate of pastries from inside, "Cousin, this is the lotus cake I specially took from the kitchen, you taste it, it tastes very good." ”
Mu Lingchuan glanced at the pastry, the pink lotus-shaped, very delicate, he suddenly thought that if Su Tang was here, he would definitely cheer and feast, overjoyed!
"Thank you cousin, I don't like sweets very much, I disappointed my cousin!"
After speaking, he got up and came to the bookshelf, took out a book, sat down and read it, and stopped talking, the meaning of driving people could not be more obvious.
The light smile on Mu Yuyan's face stiffened slightly, became pale, and her eyes were full of tears, and she was about to cry when she looked at it.
It's just that, fortunately, the little girl still knows that she can't lose her temper, so she held back her tears and said dryly, "Then, that cousin is busy, I, I'll go back first!" ”
After waiting for a while, Mu Lingchuan didn't see him speak, so Mu Yuyan had a little white face and hurriedly left Shanhu Garden.
"Miss, don't be sad, Young Master, Young Master, he has always been so cold, he must not have deliberately targeted Miss."
Seeing that her young lady was sad, the little maid quickly took out an embroidered handkerchief to wipe her tears, and whispered comfort.
Mu Yuyan's tears couldn't be stopped, and they flowed down her cheeks, "I must have been very embarrassed just now, my cousin must have thought in my heart that I was not reserved and lost the face of my daughter's family." Do you think so?
It's just that my grandmother and grandfather are discussing my relationship with my cousin in private, why is my cousin still doing this? Could it be that I, the daughter of the Mu family, are not worthy of his illegitimate son......"
Mu Yuyan, who was a little annoyed and angry, began to say nothing, and the words blurted out were full of disgust, but with a little unwillingness.
The little maid was shocked, and hurriedly stopped Mu Yuyan's words, "Miss......"
Mu Yuyan was suddenly calmed down by the little maid's exclamation, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly looked around, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one, and even the tears that were originally gushing out stopped.
She bluffed her face and scolded the little maid harshly, "Don't you hear what you said just now, otherwise I won't be able to spare you, you know?" ”
The little maid had a white face and kept nodding, "The slave knows, the slave doesn't hear anything." ”
Mu Yuyan bit her lip and looked back at Shanhu Garden, her eyes flashed with complexity, and then she turned around and left, "Let's go to my mother's yard." ”
In the study, Mu Zhong watched the little girl leave, and teased, "Childe, this is a peach blossom!" ”
Mu Lingchuan raised his eyes from the book, "What peach blossom?" Where do the peach blossoms come from this season? ”
Mu Zhong: I've been pinched by you personally, Childe!
Su Tang didn't know about the affairs of the Mu family in Fucheng, she was busy helping the family pickle vegetables at this time!
I don't know what's going on, the braised meat shop in the town suddenly came to the news, and a big merchant ordered fifty jars of pickled vegetables, and came to pull the goods half a month later.
It's a big business, how can you say no?
So, Su Mingjiang couldn't worry about his pregnant wife, so he directly found the patriarch and started buying melons, fruits, vegetables and vegetables in the village, and found more than a dozen people to quickly wash the vegetables, fill the jar, and then put spices and seal the jar.
It took ten days to get the fifty jars of pickles, and they were waiting for the merchants to pull the vegetables.
These fifty vats directly occupied most of their courtyard, leaving only a place for pedestrians.
It gave the three-year-old Su Qi a place to play, and his laughter could be heard every day, as well as a small figure drilling around in the middle of the gap in the big tank.
"Xianggong, you said that Shopkeeper Zhou won't be deceived, right?"
Seeing that the fifteenth day has arrived, the sun has also risen high, but the merchants mentioned by the shopkeeper of the braised meat shop Zhou have not yet appeared.
This made Shen Yunniang a little worried, standing at the entrance of the village and looking at the direction of the road leading to the town, her face full of worry.
"How can it be, it's okay, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work, this pickle is not afraid of spoilage, just sell it slowly." Su Mingjiang was in a good mood, smiled and comforted his wife, and lowered his head to tease his son beside him.
Shen Yunniang didn't know this fact, but it was just a pity, "How could I not know, isn't this a lot of silver, and I am still a little lost in my heart." ”
This time, the large vat of pickles is larger than the previous one, and the pickles in this vat also cost five taels of silver, and fifty trays are two hundred and fifty taels.
With so many pickles, it will take more than half a month to earn back just by looking at the number of sales in the past.
"Yes, the lady relaxes her mind, sit and wait, I can't say that there is something delayed."
Shen Yunniang sat on the stone pier, shook her head and smiled, "I'll go back first, the sun is getting bigger and bigger, and it's getting hot." ”
"Mother, I'll go back with you." Su Tang also stood up, patted the soil on his buttocks, and came to Shen Yunniang's side and said.
Su Mingjiang also felt sorry for Shen Yunniang, nodded and asked her to go back, "I won't let you come over, you still don't want to, go back quickly, don't be hot." ”
"Mother, Guoguo will go back too, sister!"
As soon as Su Qi heard that his mother and sister were leaving, he immediately ran over, took Su Tang's hand, and smiled proudly.
"You kid, I have to hurt you in vain, and I won't stay with you or me?"
"Haha, sister run, daddy is chasing after me!"
Su Qi screamed in surprise and dragged Su Tang and ran forward, but how did he run through Su Mingjiang with his little short legs.
Before he could run a few steps, he was picked up by Su Mingjiang, and the little guy was even more frightened and screamed, "Ah, sister, help, ah...... Haha......"
Su Mingjiang held him with one hand and tickled him with the other, Su Qi screamed and laughed so aggrieved that he could only wriggle around in Su Mingjiang's arms like a caterpillar, wanting to escape from his father's arms.
"Okay, this is outside, the fruit is sweating hot."
Shen Yunniang was a little overwhelmed, and a few steps before going up the mountain, she stretched out her hand to stop it, but Su Mingjiang was holding her son and dodging it.
"I won't mess with him, don't come here, be careful that this kid kicks you." After saying that, he put Su Qi on the ground and let him run away by himself. ,
