Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Merry King Wenchang
Xu Fugui was quite happy to get the new lo-mei stall, but he still didn't forget to say: "Jiazhen, you usually have a lot of hearts, you have a big belly, you can't be careless." ”
Jiazhen nodded helplessly, "I know, it's not the first time to have a child, you don't have to worry about me." ”
"I don't worry about you, do I worry about other women?"
Jiazhen snorted and looked at him resentfully, "Didn't you like to worry about other women before?" ”
Xu Fugui laughed twice, unwilling to say more on this topic, he used to be a bastard.
Together with Laishun, the lo-mei is placed on the stall, compared with before, this stall looks much more formal, and it is also more clean and hygienic, and the customer's perception will be better.
"Jiazhen, this is the dried shiitake mushroom that Uncle Sun gave us, I brought some of the stewed mushrooms over, and specially let you and Fengxia taste them."
Jiazhen took it, opened it and glanced at it, "I'll take it back and eat it with my father." ”
There was no business in the morning, Xu Fugui put the canvas he had just torn off on the ground, sat down, and then patted his back and motioned for her to sit here.
Jiazhen rolled her eyes, "You're not ashamed, I don't want to dip in the pig cage." ”
As she spoke, she opened the cabinet door under the stall, and there was actually a vacuum inside, and there were two wooden benches, Jiazhen took out one, and sat down slowly with her waist up.
At this time, she realized that Fugui and Laishun were wearing straw sandals on their feet, and pursed their lips, "Fugui, let's go home after the stall closes tomorrow." ”
Xu Fugui's eyes lit up, "My father-in-law asked me to go?" ”
Jiazhen covered her mouth and sneered, "What do you think, why might my father invite you to the house, I want you to go and get cloth shoes, you see that your feet are frozen purple." ”
Xu Fugui glanced down and said indifferently: "My mother made me cloth shoes, but how dare I wear those muddy roads, I will not wear them in one trip, it is better to wear straw sandals, no matter how bad it is, I don't feel distressed." ”
"No, it's not hot on your feet, and it's useless to wear more clothes on your body."
"That's not what everyone else wears." Xu Fugui muttered.
Jiazhen was helpless, stretched out her white finger and tapped his forehead, "Why are you so able to endure hardship now?" Are you still blessed? ”
Xu Fugui smiled happily, "Of course I am Fugui, a Fugui who can endure hardships." ”
"Then you still have to come and get it tomorrow, I made it for my father and mother, they also made it, and it was stuffed with cotton, and it was very hot."
As he spoke, Jiazhen took off the white scarf around his neck and made a gesture to put it on for him, "Wear it like this, and I'm not afraid of catching a cold, even Fengxia knows how to wear more." ”
Xu Fugui didn't answer, changed the topic, and asked curiously: "Can my father-in-law let you come out to see me casually?" ”
Feng Xia interjected, "Of course Grandpa is not happy, but he can't help my mother, and he can't control us." ”
Xu Fugui was silent, and then sighed, "Jiazhen, you still have to be kind to your father, his old man has a lot of worries about us." ”
"These things you gave me, Dad must also know, we can't lie to ourselves."
"Hmph, I still want you to say this, of course I know to honor my father, but it's you, just don't be angry with him."
"I can't, I still want to honor him more, but unfortunately I don't have the ability now."
The old man is much more powerful than him, not only controls most of the rice and grain in the county, but also the president of the Yunxi County Chamber of Commerce.
Jiazhen smiled and asked if the sweet potatoes and potatoes at home were ripe.
Xu Fugui nodded, "It's almost, I'm preparing to dig in the next two days, my mother also made some salt cabbage in the jar, she said you like to eat this, by the way, there are salted duck eggs." ”
"Salted duck eggs, Feng Xia likes to eat salted duck eggs the most!" Feng Xia said happily.
Jiazhen wanted to say something, but suddenly a guest came, Xu Fugui hurriedly got up from the ground and put on a smile to sell.
With this customer, business has gradually improved, but it is not as busy as before.
"Jiazhen, you take Fengxia back first, it's cold, don't blow it." Xu Fugui took the time to speak.
Jiazhen nodded, and the next person hurriedly recruited a rickshaw for her, and she left with Fengxia.
"Fugui, business is booming."
Near noon, Wang Wenchang suddenly appeared outside Wang's Restaurant, although it was a cold day, he was still holding a folding fan in his hand, with a cynical smile on the corner of his mouth, the dark circles on his face were obvious, his eyes were a little sluggish, and he looked like he hadn't woken up.
Xu Fugui smiled inexplicably and arched his hand, "Young Master Wang is another night of Spring Festival, which is simply enviable." ”
Wang Wenchang licked his lips, as if he was reminiscing about last night, opened the folding fan and shook his head and said, "Fugui, you listen to me carefully, a new group of women in Qinglou ......"
Wang Wenchang didn't treat him as an outsider, and told the beauty of the Qinglou woman yesterday one by one, and Xu Fugui and Lai, who listened to it, were dry-mouthed.
After Wang Wenchang finished speaking, he closed his eyes, "The best, it's the best, tomorrow night, I have to try it and experience different pleasures." ”
Let's be straightforward, "Why don't you go tonight?" ”
Wang Wenchang helped his waist, "There is something important tonight, how can a woman have an important career." ”
Lai Shun nodded suddenly.
Wang Wenchang handed the folding fan to the subordinate beside him, and looked at it close to the lo-mei stall, "Fugui, your stall has also changed, not bad, Xu Ji lo-mei, it will be made into a time-honored brand in the future, and there are no pig ears?" ”
Xu Fugui shook his head, "No, pig ears are the best to sell, and they will be sold out first." ”
Wang Wenchang shook his head regretfully, and asked his subordinates to take out a pair of pig kidneys and a pair of sheep kidneys, "Help me take it back and stew it, and see what this thing tastes like." ”
Xu Fugui took it, patted his chest and said that it was no problem.
Wang Wenchang picked up a braised egg on the spot and peeled it and ate it, nodded, picked up another braised duck egg, waved his hand and entered the restaurant.
"Young master, this young master of the Wang family is quite interesting." Lai Shun said.
"It's really interesting."
After selling the lo-mei, the two packed up the remaining lo-mei and carried the stall to the back kitchen of Wang's Restaurant.
Xu Fugui carefully folded the canvas that had just been torn off, ready to take it away together.
This canvas is not cheap, it is still waterproof, and he is not willing to be cheap to others.
didn't leave the county in a hurry, he bought all the things that the family needed one by one according to Xu's mother's explanation last night, and then went to buy a lot of cotton.
After spending a lot, all the money earned today was spent again.
Lai Shun is very distressed, but Xu Fugui thinks it's very good, the silver dollar is earned and spent, of course it is good to save, but it is more important to improve the living standard of the family.
After buying things, the two of them walked out of the county town again with a large bag, and they had to hurry back to eat and dig out the sweet potatoes and potatoes in the field......
