Chapter 22 A Business Is Done
"How about ninety? If you can say yes, I can buy all the sauce you brought with me right now. ”
The shopkeeper looked at the two bottles of sauce in her basket, and his mind moved slightly: "Then you don't have to trouble the girl anymore to bring such heavy things back." ”
"It's just a few bottles, it's not that heavy, a hundred dollars at a price, why don't you think about it more?"
Su Xiaomu shook his head.
The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and finally agreed.
"Okay, then we have to say okay, you can only sell this thing to us in the future! If the sales are good and the customers like to eat, I can continue this business with you for a long time. ”
"Of course, the shopkeeper's money is not blown by the wind, I still understand this truth."
Su Xiaomu smiled and handed over all the chili sauce in the basket: "A total of four hundred Wen, thanks to the shopkeeper to take care of the business." ”
Su Xiaomu took the money from the shopkeeper and thought about going to the market to see if there were any snacks that he could bring back to the children.
She went straight to the candy shop, but before she could choose, she saw two familiar faces in the bookstore next to her.
looked closely, it was Zhou Lin and his classmate.
At this time, the memory in Su Xiaomu's mind was not very good, and she remembered the ugly words that Gu Jingcheng said in that alley, so she turned her back while choosing candy, and didn't want to pay attention to it.
But the two of them spoke a little louder, and they could hear it clearly when they were outside.
"I can go home today, why are you still looking so cold today, I have seen your sister-in-law, she has said more than once that you are the hope of your whole family.
What, why don't you want to go back? ”
"Didn't your sister-in-law say that your family married you a daughter-in-law? It is said that there are four happy events in life: a long drought and nectar, meeting old acquaintances in other places, candle nights in the cave house, and the title of the gold list. You said that you now have a daughter-in-law, and I am not the same as my brother. ”
Zhou Lin was poor, Gu Jingcheng coldly handed him a roll of his eyes, and there was impatience in his tone: "If you are willing, you can also ask your father to marry you a daughter-in-law." ”
"It doesn't have to be!"
Zhou Lin immediately waved his hand to show his reluctance: "Why do I marry a daughter-in-law now?" Will she take care of me with my mother? It's not that I said, it's just that your daughter-in-law is a dominatrix, that's why you don't want to go back, if it's really your mother who gave you a fairy, you wouldn't even want to read the book. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Lin began to rub his hands again: "That is to say, next time I ask my sister-in-law to bring you food, we also want to see what your new daughter-in-law looks like." ”
The more Gu Jingcheng heard him say that his face became darker, and finally walked forward without saying a word.
She couldn't hear what was said later, and the two of them walked away.
Su Xiaomu finished weighing the candy and pursed his lips.
"On weekdays, he still looks like a decent man and a gentleman, what kind of genius who reads sage books, but he is also a high-sounding person, talking about women wantonly in public, and saying some filthy words, I think you two have this ability."
Hehe, who is the dominatrix?
Su Xiaomu shook his head speechlessly, got on the ox cart and prepared to go back to the village.
She didn't hear it, Gu Jingcheng and Zhou Lin Zhengse said.
"Don't always orchestrate others, between me and her is between me and her, you have never met her, you will not know what her temper is, no one wants to be the talk of others for no reason."
Gu Jingcheng said very seriously, and Zhou Lin didn't dare to joke with him anymore.
But in the end, I couldn't help but mutter: "Who told you to never talk to us about your daughter-in-law on weekdays, everyone thinks you don't want to see her." ”
"This has nothing to do with whether you want to see or not, a gentleman has something to do and something not to do, and you shouldn't look at her liveliness like this."
Gu Jingcheng finally emphasized to him again: "If you are making fun of her, then the friendship between us will come to an end." ”
"Why should it be so serious!"
When Zhou Lin heard this, he quickly took Gu Jingcheng's hand and said: "It's really not like brother, I respect my sister-in-law very much, in my heart, my sister-in-law is the best woman in the world!" ”
"Don't call her sister-in-law."
Gu Jingcheng gritted his teeth and finally held back a few words.
And here, Su Xiaomu arrived at the village in an ox cart for almost an hour.
After she got home, she gave the sugar gourds and cakes she bought to the children to eat, and she also cut a pound of meat, thinking that the last time the Yin family bought it would be left for Gu Jingcheng, so they would eat this pound of meat and beat their teeth first.
I didn't have time to rest at home, and after doing the business of the hotel shopkeeper, Su Xiaomu thought about whether he could make some other sauces.
She has always been thinking about the wild pepper tree on the mountain, carrying a sickle, and calling Gu Ruotong to go up the mountain together.
There was no way, Yin and Chen couldn't shout, and it was not easy to explain to them what wild peppercorns were, so she could only pull Gu Ruotong.
She went up the hill and didn't come back before dinner.
So much so that Su Xiaomu didn't know that her cheap husband was back!
"Oops, Jingcheng! Why did you come back so late? I should have had breakfast in the academy tomorrow morning and come back slowly by car. ”
As soon as Li heard the two daughters-in-law say that the third child was back, she immediately came out of the house excitedly, and almost forgot to wear her shoes.
But as soon as he saw the handsome face of his third son with exhaustion, and saw that there were mud spots on his shoes, he scratched his heart and liver in distress.
"Didn't I ask your sister-in-law to send you money yesterday? Why are you so reluctant to spend, if you break down on the road, you really want to feel sorry for your mother! ”
"It's okay mother, it's just that the master has assigned a homework to memorize, so I should read the book while walking."
When Gu Jingcheng saw Li, his face was much gentler, he went back to the house to pack his things first, Li didn't dare to enter the house with him, for fear of delaying his study.
It was in the yard to greet Yin's cooking, and then to Chen's to clean the yard.
Gu Jingcheng put out all his books in the room.
The eldest brother and the second brother should still be in the field, and only Ruotong is not the child in the family.
and his own child daughter-in-law......
When I thought that she was not at home at the moment, I didn't have to be embarrassed to face her for the time being, and I felt a little comforted in my heart.
I picked up the book and read it slowly.
Gu Jingcheng didn't notice that there was a small bed propped up next to his bed.
On the kang where he slept every day, he was replaced with a thicker quilt.
Before the book had been read a few pages, a refreshing female voice came from outside the courtyard.
"Mother! Ruotong and I are back! ”
"Look what I smell, is my sister-in-law stewing meat today!"
Su Xiaomu was carrying a basket of wild peppercorns, and he was in a particularly good mood now.
Today's harvest is quite good, and the business of this chili sauce can be done for a few more days.
Gu Ruotong also picked a lot of mulberries, and they could make mulberry sauce to eat later.
"I said that if you go into the city, you will go into the city, and if you buy something, you will buy something, why waste this money to buy these for the children to eat!"
When Li heard Su Xiaomu's voice, he carried Gu Ruochen and walked towards her.
