Chapter Eighty-Seven: Although the backer is small

Liu Sanniang liked to accept the apprentice, and when Yan Wan went to find someone who could be the master of the Yan family to confirm the matter, in the White Deer Academy, Gan Houli finished eating the last meal of honey-roasted venison brought by Zhou Xingfeng, Zhou Xingfeng saw him solemnly chewing the last bite and said, "If you like it, I will let the family make it again." ”

"No need." "Deer are not an ordinary table, and it's good to eat them once in a while." ”

"That's right, if you want to eat venison, you don't have to buy it, you have to hunt it." Zhou Xingfeng said, "This deer is also unlucky, the Mid-Autumn Festival family reunion, he alone has become a delicacy on the table." ”

"I also hit a deer on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival." Gan Houli said, he compared how big the male deer was, "When Ah Weng brought it back, the deer's body was still warm, Xiaoba went to touch it, I didn't dare." ”

"Did you eat venison?" Zhou Xingfeng asked.

Gan Houli shook his head, "Such a big deer is reluctant to eat it at home, so it wants to sell it." ”

"Originally, I wanted to pull him to the city to sell, but someone came to collect the deer, it should be a great family, open a hundred taels, Ah Weng didn't beat him out, and finally sold it to him." Gan Houli said.

"A hundred taels sold to him? Then you're at a loss. Zhou Xingfeng said that a deer is not cheap on weekdays, and it happens to coincide with the Mid-Autumn Festival, even if it doubles, it is normal.

"The last two hundred and fifty taels were sold." Gan Houli said, "Ah Weng said that he was only going to sell for 200 taels, but the man was so annoying that he opened his mouth to lower the price of 100 taels, so he had to sell more." ”

"You're so funny." Zhou Xingfeng smiled and said, "He's not afraid that person won't buy it?" ”

"If he doesn't buy it, the deer will be sold. What's more, there was another person in that house later, who said that he was waiting for the deer for a banquet at home, so even if it was three hundred taels or four hundred taels, he would buy it. Gan Houli said.

Zhou Xingfeng was listening to jokes, but listening to it, this scene seems to be very familiar, isn't this the situation on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival in his family, it was originally just a family banquet, my father suddenly got a deer, and he wanted to get a deer banquet, and invited many people to the house, even the county magistrate invited to the house.

"Grandma also blamed Ah Weng, saying that the family had a background, and selling it to him at a high price would offend people." Gan Houli said, "I don't know if I've offended someone, but it's a pity that I'm here, and I don't know the situation at home. ”

In order not to cause trouble to the family, and to say that he was really doing well in the academy, he didn't let them come every three days, only once on the fifth day.

It's two days away.

"How can this business be offended?" Zhou Xingfeng said. "Your Ah Weng sounds like a person with ideas, and he will not be bullied, so you can rest assured."

"What is Zhou Yuanwai, I originally thought he was a good person, last time my mother took Eleven to see his lady, Eleven came back to say that she was a fairy-like person, beautiful and gentle, and gave her a lot of good things, but I didn't expect his housekeeper to be so domineering, and kept saying that if I didn't sell it to him, I would offend Zhou Yuanwai, and if I offended Zhou Yuanwai, don't want to live in Maple Village."

Gan Houli sighed. "The house in Ruyifang hasn't been built yet, if we can't live in Maple Village, where are we going?"

"Outside the week?" Zhou Xingfeng's expression changed, he looked at Gan Houli with a distressed face, and began to think about whether he had introduced his own situation to Gan Houli, and Gan Houli knew that his father was the Zhou Yuanwai in his mouth.

"How many Zhou members are there in Jiangyang?" Gan Houli tilted his head to look at him. "You and him are still in our own family, don't you know?"

"Yes." Zhou Xingfeng was a little embarrassed after discovering that he really didn't report his home, after all, he didn't know Gan Houli for a long time, he even knew the names of his eleven brothers and sisters, and he also knew that his father followed him Ah Weng as a butcher, and his second uncle opened a restaurant, he touched the Gan family thoroughly, and Gan Houli didn't even know who his father was, this is not the way to get along as friends.

"But I heard that Zhou Yuan is kind and charitable, never oppresses the township, and is a very good person." Zhou Xingfeng said, "If it was really him, he would definitely not do anything that made people unable to stay in the village." ”

"Hopefully." "Maybe he came back to his senses and thought that the deer was too expensive?" ”

"No, it won't." Zhou Xingfeng smiled and said, "His family won't be angry about this money." ”

Having said that, Zhou Xingfeng still asked Yan Song to go back and ask, what happened to that deer, right?

When Yan Song returned home, he was directly called in front of Yuan Xinqiao, Yuan Xinqiao asked him what the eldest young master lacked in the academy, Yan Song shook his head, "The eldest young master just sent me back to ask, how much did the Mid-Autumn Festival deer buy?" ”

"Does he like to eat venison, I see that he brought a lot of it, what price does he want to eat, is there still a lack of his venison money at home." Yuan Xinqiao smiled and said, "It's just that the deer I bought last time was not real, I asked people to go to Orion, wait a few more days, and there will be it." ”

"Is that deer expensive?" Iwamatsu asked.

"It's not just that it's expensive, it's just a big deal." Yuan Xinqiao said, "Such a deer was sold for four hundred taels." ”

"Four hundred taels?" Iwamatsu reconfirmed.

"You're so strange, why did you come back and only ask the price of this deer, the eldest young master didn't care about these chores in the past." Chunfang asked on the side. She is Yuan Xinqiao's dowry, married to the steward of the Zhou family, and Yan Songcha is her husband's nephew.

"This Lu Gan's family only sold it for two hundred and fifty taels." Iwamatsu said. "The Gan family originally only wanted to sell for two hundred taels, but as soon as Steward Zhou went up, he asked someone to buy one hundred taels, and the Gan family was angry, so he said higher."

"How did these four hundred taels come from?"

"How do you know two hundred and fifty taels?" Yuan Xinqiao asked.

"The roommate of the eldest young master, Gan Houli, is the seventh grandson of the Gan butcher in Maple Village, and the Gan butcher came back from hunting deer that day, and he was also at home, saying that the family was originally happy to wait for the festival, and Ah Weng went to sell the deer, but the family was worried, worried about offending Zhou Yuan's family." Iwamatsu said.

"Doesn't the roommate of the eldest young master know the identity of the eldest young master? Or did he say it on purpose. Chunfang asked.

"Young Master Gan shouldn't know the identity of the eldest young master, he is so focused on studying, he is very simple, he was tricked by the eldest young master, and he didn't think to ask where the eldest young master's house is." Yan Song smiled and said, "If he knew, he wouldn't be so genuinely troubled and worried, as long as he opened his mouth, the eldest young master would never embarrass him." The young master of his family looked at the smile, and he was very kind to people, but in fact, he was clear in his heart, he watched from the sidelines, and felt that the young master was second only to the second young master to the young master Gan.

"Even if it was really sold for four hundred taels, who would have embarrassed people for these four hundred taels?" Yuan Xinqiao said, "I know what's going on, I still wanted to save face for him, but now I don't have to." You go back and tell the eldest young master that no one will embarrass the Gan family, so that he can study with confidence. ”
