Chapter 176: The Tai Family Simply Raised an Ancestor!
The old man didn't ask much, and beckoned them to eat.
The two boys shook off their chopsticks and ate quickly.
It is said that half the size eats the poor man, a full eight dishes, and the disc is on the disc in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, the old man and Banxian'er were full, even Zhuzhu had a round belly, and even quietly wrapped another big chicken thigh, planning to take it back to the second brother to eat.
When Tai Jizu came back after shopping, the old and young were going downstairs, and just about to settle the bill, the guy said that Steward Wu had already given the money.
Everyone laughed, and when they left the restaurant, Old Man Tai stuffed a silver ingot and five taels of silver into Banxian'er's sleeve, and then took his children and grandchildren out of the city and went home.
When he had to rush to get the carriage, the big black horse was already impatient to wait, and when he saw the Tai family, he rolled his lips and spitted his saliva, and teased his hooves again and again!
Tai Jizu hurriedly fed it a handful of grass cut on the road, and promised to go home and give half a scoop of beans, which can be regarded as coaxing the big black horse.
Finally, the carriage walked home again, not to mention the Tai family, even the people who temporarily stored the carriage breathed a sigh of relief.
People raise horses to raise animals, and this Tai family is simply raising ancestors!
The children in the family were naughty before, and they ran to pull the tail of the big black horse, and they were almost kicked away!
After going out for most of the day, the big dark horse was already homesick, and like the wind under his feet, he accelerated to rush home.
Zhuzhu sat in her grandfather's arms, but she didn't feel bumpy, and occasionally she giggled with laughter.
However, Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue held the car board tightly, for fear that they would encounter a pit and be turned into the trench.
The two found a gap and whispered to their grandfather.
"Grandpa, Uncle Min is very happy to hear that there is ginseng, and he must give one hundred and twenty taels. We see that he took money out of his purse, and it was only a hundred taels. In this way, in case the Min family doesn't want mountain ginseng, Uncle Min is equivalent to buying it himself, and it won't hurt his muscles and bones. Tai Yonglu said in detail.
Tai Yongyue was also helpful, "Yes, grandpa, the ginseng we brought is medium-sized among the three, and the price of one hundred taels is fair." ”
The old man nodded and responded, "My plant was sold to the noble family who overturned the car at the beginning, and it was also sold at a price of one hundred taels." ”
Then he stopped talking.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yonglu glanced at each other, and began to regret it again.
Of the three ginseng plants, two of them sold for 100 taels, and only the pharmacy sold for 70 taels.
In the final analysis, it was because they were fast-mouthed, too proud and cautious, so they were bought by the pharmacy Banqiang, and the family suffered a big loss of thirty taels of silver.
That's thirty taels, enough for the family to spend for a year, and it's gone!
The two little ones were together, wilting and drooping, and no amount of birds in the roadside fields could arouse their interest.
In fact, the old man didn't blame the two grandsons in his heart for a long time, after all, in the process of growing up, they all stumbled so much, constantly suffering losses and falling on their heels.
Besides, the family has a lot of income now, and it is not bad for the thirty taels to live.
The reason why the two boys are cold is to think about how long they have a memory!
He hugged his chubby granddaughter and kept thinking.
The two hundred taels given by Dr. Wang before were left, and the daughter-in-law's embroidery salary was two hundred taels, which were all saved at home, and they were ready to be put into the cashmere workshop.
Now I have earned 270 taels from selling ginseng, which is more than 600 taels together.
It is estimated that a cashmere workshop will not be able to spend its money, and according to the long-term plan, it should buy some more fields and shops to add some profitable industries to the family.
This is a big deal, go home and discuss it with my son and daughter-in-law.
It's just that most of this silver is earned back by her granddaughter, and the property she bought back should also be given to her granddaughter.
The stinky boys in the family followed the happiness, and it became a matter of eating and drinking spicy food.
If in the future, they covet these properties and want to compete with their sisters, they will send them out of the house one by one!
The old man made up his mind, and his heart was much more relaxed, and he hugged the fat granddaughter into his arms again, for fear of upside down this baby bump!
But Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue inexplicably felt that their butts were a little cold......
Don't say how the old man Tai calculated, just said that Steward Min hurried back to the house from the dim sum shop, inquired, and heard that the old man was in the main room, so he hurriedly asked to see him.
Soon, a mother-in-law came out to pick him up.
When Master Min saw that he was holding a bark bag in his arms, he asked, "Is this another good thing found outside?" ”
"If you go back to the master, thanks to your blessing, I really found something good!"
Steward Min opened the bark bag with a smile and responded, "The Tai family dug up a ginseng in the mountains, because they didn't know if we needed it at home, so they specially asked the villain to inquire, and the villain bought it directly." It just so happened that the convoy that went to the south to deliver the Dragon Boat Festival gift in the house had not left yet, and it was too coincidental! ”
Master Min and Mrs. Min were both surprised and happy, and they took a closer look.
"This ginseng is really fresh and earthy, but it's very different from what I've seen before." Mrs. Min praised and asked, "Have you given the Tai family money, don't treat them badly!" This family is really kind, and if there is anything good, the first thing to think of is our house. ”
Steward Min hurriedly responded, "Mrs. Hui, the market price of this mountain ginseng should be one hundred and twenty taels, but the Tai family refused to accept so much, only said that it was obtained for nothing in the mountains, and finally asked for one hundred taels."
"The villain thinks, our house is also a lot of movement with the Tai family, and it hurts the feelings if we are too careful, so it is better to slowly make up for it in the future......"
Mrs. Min nodded, very agreeing.
"That's right, in a few days of the Dragon Boat Festival, you are responsible for purchasing the Tai family's festival gifts, buying some practical things, and remember to thicken it by three points."
Master Min never cared about these trivial matters, and rearranged the bark bag and said, "I'll go find a doctor to concoct this mountain ginseng well, the Dragon Boat Festival has been prepared, and there is no need to add more." This mountain ginseng should be left behind, in case it has a specific use, and it will not be troubled again. ”
Mrs. Min naturally agreed, and Master Min went to the front, and Steward Min talked about the business of the dim sum shop again, and also retreated.
Similarly, at the end of a street in the east of the city, there is the Sanjin house of the Wu family, and there is also a small garden.
A small courtyard was built in the corner of the garden, with only three rooms, which was very elegant and simple.
At this moment, a young woman was taking an old doctor and a steward around to look at the ginseng.
This woman was the one who had accidentally overturned the carriage, and she was anxious to ask the old doctor.
"What is the year of this mountain ginseng, and it may be used in medicine?"
"Yes, surely!" The old doctor was overjoyed when he saw the hunting, carefully fiddled with the ginseng whiskers, lowered his head and sniffed from time to time, and shouted, "This is simply very good, and it is fresh, and the effect of medicine is better." I'll quickly dispose of it, this ginseng is enough for the old man to eat for three months. ”
Mrs. Wu breathed a long sigh of relief, and hurriedly called her mother-in-law to send the doctor to work.
"Congratulations to Madame for getting the medicine!" Steward Wu is clever and salutes and says goodbye.
Mrs. Wu waved her hand, and she also felt a little surprised.
When she overturned the car outside Taijia Village, she got the help of the Tai family, and she also appreciated it, and specially asked people to send a thank you gift, and the Tai family even gave back some game.
At that time, she only thought that the family knew the etiquette, but the correspondence was limited to that.
Who would have thought that this time the family was in a hurry to use ginseng, and the delivery of the hometown in the south was not timely, and seeing that her husband was about to stop taking medicine, the Tai family actually came out again, which helped a lot!
I have to say, fate is really wonderful!
Mrs. Wu was about to speak, when a suppressed cough suddenly came from the back room, and she quickly got up and walked in.
