Chapter 14 Buying and Selling Grain

Today, she brought all four girls with her. went to explain to the porter, and the second room had no time to take care of her in the past two days because of the competition, so she directly asked her subordinates to prepare the carriage and left the house openly.

The sun was shining outside, and now it's late April, and it's getting hotter. She still asked the maid to bring men's clothes, and let the carriage stop not far from the mansion in the south of the city. After a few people got out of the car, they went around in a circle and went to the house.

Su Siqiao was afraid that the husband who taught martial arts would see her identity, so she entered through the back door, and then changed into the red dress and went to the front yard. The Blood Demon and Soul Breaker who were training saw their master appear, and they all stepped forward to salute.

Su Siqiao waved his hand and motioned for them to continue practicing on their own. She went over and gave her husband a piece of silver, and told her that Mr. would teach here for the time being today and come back tomorrow, Mr. Teaching came once every three days, and he didn't come today, so she didn't have to support Mr. Teaching, after the man was sent away by Su Siqiao, the twenty people present began to practice on their own.

After Su Siqiao asked the four maids to practice with them, he went to the previous shop selling rice alone.

The shopkeeper was beaming with pride, and he still had the thousand taels Su Siqiao gave him that day in his arms. Today is the day of delivery, and if I can do this business today, I will be able to soar in the future. The more I thought about it, the happier I became, and the boss at this time had a happy smile on his face.

While he was secretly having fun alone, Su Siqiao walked in. "Boss, how's the food being prepared?"

As soon as the boss heard someone call him, he looked up and saw that it was the man in red that day, and the boss immediately stood up excitedly. ran to Su Siqiao's side and said, "Childe, you can count on it, I'm here waiting for you all morning!" Rest assured, the food is ready. I don't know if Childe went to find someone to pull him over today? Or will we send someone to send it to you? ”

Su Siqiao: "How much is there?" ”

Boss: "Hui Gongzi, there are a total of 100 loads of new rice, that is, 10,000 catties." You said you wanted as much as you wanted. You also know the price of selling new rice before, it is six or seven hundred wen a catty, look at the son, you buy so much, I will earn a little less, count you five hundred wen a catty, a total of five thousand taels of silver. What do you think? ”

Su Siqiao: "Take me to inspect the goods first, if it's okay, don't worry, I will say everything." ”

When the boss heard that he wanted it all, he immediately took Su Siqiao to inspect the goods, because there were too many of them, so they were all placed in the suburban warehouse. After Su Siqiao checked that the rice was fine, he instructed the boss to have the rice transported to the mansion in the south of the city. Su Siqiao arrived at the gate of the mansion with a large number of grain transport teams all the way.

The maid in the house heard the movement outside the door, opened a small door and looked over, Qinglian opened the door after seeing that it was her own lady. Then the blood, a group of people from Broken Soul also came out to help and began to carry food, just like that, plus the dozens of people brought by the boss, everyone moved for a whole day, and the rest of the unfinished moving was left to Broken Soul Bloody Blood. Su Siqiao and the four maids rushed back to the house before dark. Of course, before returning home, the boss also gave him 5,000 taels, and the price was 1,000 taels before. So Su Siqiao gave another four thousand taels later.

After returning home, several people were half tired to death, so they saved the link of martial arts training today. After everyone washed up and ate early, they rested. Su Siqiao too, went back early and fell asleep.

The second room is busy now, and he hasn't come to Su Siqiao recently.

After all, since his rebirth, the second room has stopped a lot. Of course, it was not his own reason but the poetry conference, and Su Yanwen spent a lot of effort for the poetry conference. Liu Shuyun was even more afraid that Su Yanwen would make a mistake in the competition, so she specially invited a well-known gentleman to teach her.

Of course, Su Wan'er didn't care on the surface, but in fact, she secretly spent a lot of thought behind her back. In the past few days, Su Yanwen and Su Wan'er have read various poetry books and learned a lot of painting skills.

Although they are very confident that they will not lose to Su Siqiao's straw bag, among so many talented women in the capital, if they want to win the first place, they still have to work harder, so these two people have rarely appeared in front of Su Siqiao recently.

Unlike in the past, today's Su Siqiao was called by the maid on the old lady's side early. Of course, the people in the second room were also there today, and after Su Siqiao greeted the old lady, he sat down and drank tea.

The old lady sat in the first place, and saw how she was in a very good mood today. The wrinkles on his face look even more obvious because of the loud smile. The old lady asked the maid to call Lin Yueniang, a famous tailor in the capital.

Mrs. Su: "There is still half a moon is the annual poetry conference, the boudoir women and the sons of the family who are a little talented in the capital will participate, and the next few days will be a flower viewing banquet, of course, I can't lose face in the general's mansion, and I have to have the style that I should have, so today I specially invited Lin Yueniang, a famous woman in the capital, to cut clothes for the three of you." ”

"Give each of you sisters a few sets of fashionable styles, and then you will go to the Treasure Pavilion to pick out a few sets of jewelry, now Lin Yueniang is here, what color clothes do you want to pick out by yourself, don't let us be the master to choose the color for you, when the time comes, a few of you don't like it, and you have to re-cut, it's better to choose your favorite color closely, and then you don't have to complain about the clothes around me." In previous years, I and the second room chose for you, oops, I don't like it every time, and you can pick all kinds of things yourself this time. ”

Saying that, the maid behind Lin Yueniang walked to the hall with a tray, waiting for the three young ladies to choose the color. Su Wan'er saw the maid coming over, and she didn't care about the respect of the elders and the young. Directly the first one stepped forward and picked it up by himself, Su Yanwen saw that Su Wan'er stepped forward and did not show weakness, so he immediately stepped forward.

You must know that the clothes made of good-looking colors are more conspicuous and more likely to be noticed by others in the crowd. In fact, when it comes to poetry competitions, it is ostensibly a poetry competition, but in fact, it is a place for the sons of major families to choose their future brides. As long as you are outstanding, someone will naturally choose you, and of course, there will be someone who is talented, and it depends on which one is more important to the person you choose.

The other two will not choose the other two colors that they have selected, after all, no one wants to encounter such a thing, so it is more beneficial for the person who chooses the color first. I picked the good color myself, and the remaining ugly two people would not take advantage of it no matter how they chose. That's why Su Yanwen and Su Wan'er are so positive.

After a while, the two of them finally chosen. During this period, Su Siqiao did not move, just drank tea and looked at the scene in front of him. For her, the two people in front of her are like clowns who jump off the beam.

In her previous life, Su Wan'er treated herself like an ant, and she still vividly remembers it.

It's just a piece of clothing, and for her, the things that make her good and eye-catching are never the things that make you look good, but the things that make others really pay attention to and interest you are your own charm. So she is not in a hurry, so why not let the two of them pick first.

After the two of them chose and sat down, the old lady saw that Su Siqiao did not move, so she said, "Why don't you pick the second girl?" Hurry up and pick it, if you pick it well, let Lin Yueniang cut and sew it quickly. ”

The old lady actually wished that she wouldn't pick it, and when the time came, she would lose someone, and she would lose the face of the big house. Just enough to let the eldest girl and the third girl be noticed, so that the two children can choose a husband's house when they come, and they can also choose a good one. I will be able to enjoy it when the time comes. But she also had to act on the surface, so she pretended to care about Su Siqiao, but in fact, she was watching Su Siqiao's jokes. If she really cared, she would have stopped Su Wan'er when she stepped forward first, but she didn't.

Su Siqiao got up: "The child knows." Then he walked slowly to the maid.

Su Yanwen and Su Wan'er each chose three sets of suits. Su smoke pattern picked, light pink, light yellow and peach. The whole thing is the shy feeling of the daughter's family. Su Wan'er chose white, cyan and blue, with an innocent girlish feeling.

The suits they chose were the same as in their previous lives. The scene of her previous life is vivid, but she chose clothes in the last place because she did it voluntarily at that time. She felt that the eldest sister and the third sister were very good to her, anyway, she was not as in love with the two of them, so why should she compete for the limelight of the two, so she gave these two good-looking colors to pick first, and she was the last to choose.

At that time, she listened to Liu Shuyun's instigation, and finally chose dark purple, as well as dark green and black, as a result, she wore dark purple to participate in the poetry conference, and she became the laughing stock of the entire conference at that time, and later because of the bottom of the competition, it confirmed her reputation as a straw bag. Her tragic life began at that time.

And Su Yanwen and Su Wan'er at the poetry conference that day were dazzling. It attracted the praise of everyone.

Su Yanwen was wearing a peach-colored flower-sprinkled smoke cloud skirt, which looked extraordinarily glamorous, and the people who lined it were more delicate than flowers. Su Wan'er was wearing a blue gold butterfly and a flower cloud satin skirt, which showed her innocence and cuteness, just like the deer in the forest. And she, standing next to her, looked even more beautiful and moving, and she didn't know it when she was like a joke.

She chose three suits for both, and of course she had to choose three suits for Su Siqiao. But now the remaining colors are either too bright or too old. There are some crimson, dark purple and even black, of course, she can continue to choose white, because there are too many kinds of white colors, there are pure white milk white and flowers are also different. While Su Siqiao was considering which suit to choose.

Liu Shuyun stepped forward at the right time and said: "Qiao'er just choose that dark purple, you usually jump off, just dark purple makes you calm." The rest of the colors are not suitable for you, you have white skin, and this dark purple is the most flattering to the skin tone. As he spoke, he picked up the fabric and compared it with Su Siqiao's hand.

Hehe, it's really like a previous life.
