Chapter 195: An Unexpected Visitor
"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper! Someone came to the shop to buy dim sum, and inquired about the third master of the Tai family, saying that it was a merchant from the south! ”
The young man's mouth is also fast, the person has not arrived in the place, and the words have been made clear!
Old Man Tai and Tai Jizu were both surprised, and Steward Min was also curious, and asked, "What kind of deal did Brother Jiye make?" ”
Old Man Tai didn't know either, so he replied vaguely, "His temperament is like a jumping monkey, who knows what to toss in the city." Let's go and ask first, what's going on? ”
Everyone spoke, said goodbye to the Chinese and went to the dim sum shop.
The young man had already rushed to the front to find the two merchants, if Tai Jiye and Tai Yongan saw this person, they would definitely be able to recognize it.
But the old man Tai and Tai Jizu can't do it, seeing that the merchant looks quite kind, the old man asked, "Excuse me, what is the matter with this shopkeeper looking for Tai Laosan in Taijia Village?" I am his father. ”
The person who came was not an outsider, it was Tai Jiye, Tai Yongan, and Chen Ruiyang when they went south, and the caravan supervisor Qian was in charge of the accompanying caravan!
I have to say that the Tai family has strong genes, Tai Jiye is seven points similar to Tai Old Man, and Tai Jizu's shadow can also be found on Tai Yongan's face.
Steward Qian was also happy to know that he had found the main owner, so he hurriedly bowed and said, "You are Old Man Tai, what a coincidence!"
"When my caravan went south with the Jiye brothers and Yong'an, there was no shortage of Jiye brothers on the way, and they always wanted to come to the door to thank them, and they often walked around. I don't want to meet you here today! ”
Old Man Tai and Tai Jizu immediately lit up their eyes, Old Man Tai took the hand of the money manager, and laughed, "Oh, you are the money manager!" After my family Jiye and Yongan came back, I didn't talk about it a lot, thank you so much for taking care of you all the way. ”
"The old man is polite, when we go out, we will help each other smoothly." The money manager is very good at talking, coaxing the old man to be happy, and it is very close and lively to meet for a while.
After the greetings, Old Man Tai asked almost the first sentence, "Money manager, let's talk about everything else, but there is one thing, our family is really worried."
"Jiye and Yong'an acted unsafely, did not send Ruiyang to the place, and threw the child down halfway. I heard that you were bothered to deliver it? I don't know how the kid in Ruiyang entered the capital city of Shunde Mansion and found the door? ”
Steward Qian nodded hurriedly and responded, "Old man, don't worry!" Ruiyang's child was personally sent to Shunde Mansion by me, and I also saw him be welcomed into the courtyard after he reported his name. You can't go wrong!
"I'm also afraid that there is a bad pool, I stayed in Fucheng for one more day that night, and I also let people wander around that courtyard, and I didn't see Ruiyang come out again, I must have settled down well."
Old Man Tai breathed a long sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good!" ”
After that, he got up again and bowed deeply to the money manager, and Tai Jizu did the same.
"Thank you for taking care of the money, it's really tiring."
As soon as the old man Tai was halfway through the bow, he was helped up by the money manager, "Oh, the old man is so polite." It's just a convenient thing, and Ruiyang's kid is quiet and smart, I like it too, and I should help it. ”
After that, he helped the old man to sit down and said with emotion, "I heard that Ruiyang is a kidnapped child? The old man can let his son and grandson go all the way south and send him home. It's really righteous to still care so much about it now. No wonder I just mentioned the Tai family, everyone can say a few words, the old man is really admirable. ”
Steward Min didn't know about Chen Ruiyang, and only thought that it was occasionally encountered by the Tai family.
At this time, he personally served tea and snacks, and also laughed a few words.
Tai Jizu saw that the hour was almost up, so he got up and saluted and said goodbye, and rushed to pick up Tai Yongning.
Steward Qian drank half a cup of tea, and thanked Steward Min before getting down to business.
It turned out that the set of cashmere clothes and pants he brought back was particularly popular with the owner's family, and for the damp and cold Sichuan and Chongqing regions, who could not be happy to have a set of intimate warm clothes in winter.
Therefore, he was sent by the master again almost without two days of rest, and this time he must buy more cashmere clothes and pants.
The old man didn't know what the price was for Tai Jiye's last transaction with Qian Steward, so it was not easy to accept it at will. So he said, "Money manager, it's not early today, I will immediately pick up my grandson who is studying and go home to say something." Early tomorrow morning, I will ask Jiye to come and talk to you in detail.
"Don't worry, Steward Min doesn't talk about it like a brother in the inheritance office, my family also rents a yard in the alley behind, you can find us wherever you go."
Steward Min immediately said, "Yes, I can't run this shop, as long as I find Jiye, come to me." ”
Qian Guan was naturally relieved, and he was even happier that he didn't have to go out of the city for a trip.
"Okay, I'll come over tomorrow after breakfast."
The money steward responded, said two more words and went back to the inn where he stayed.
At this time, Tai Jizu also took Tai Yongning over.
Tai Yongning wore a royal blue robe, he didn't go out of the house very much, his complexion was fair, his eyebrows were warm, and he looked even softer and quieter when lined by this shirt.
In particular, he is still holding a bookcase in his hand, containing books and the four treasures of the study, no matter how he looks at it, he looks like a rich man.
It's a pity that the Tai family's board car is too ordinary, and there is not even a carriage.
But Tai Yongning didn't dislike it at all, and he didn't feel that he had lost face by taking such a car.
Seeing Steward Min, he also jumped out of the car and saluted.
Steward Min patted him on the shoulder, and liked this rare good boy in his heart.
So, he asked the old man, "Uncle, Yongning will live in the back yard in the future, but there will be someone to serve him for washing and eating?"
"If you can't divide the manpower in the family, I recommend one. We have a mother-in-law who cooks and washes for the guys, and she has been doing it for four or five years.
"Why don't I tell her that I will divide an hour every day to cook dinner and wash clothes for Yongning? Yongning is not at home during the day, breakfast can be bought outside, and there are many hawkers in the alley! ”
Of course, Old Man Tai said that he was worried about this when he looked at the yard just now.
After all, Yongning's legs are not good yet, in case Jiye returns to the village or enters the grassland, he is the only one left here, and it is not possible to do laundry and cooking while studying.
"Steward Min, then I bother you to help ask, you don't have to worry about the salary, as long as you can take good care of Yongning. When I go back to the village to find a scholar for Yongning, it will be all over the place. ”
"Okay, uncle, you should go back quickly. This little thing is taken care of for you. Steward Min helped the old man into the car and handed him two boxes of snacks, "This is for Zhuzhu, so that our fat girl can let go of eating." Our lord's wife also knew that Brother Min Liang had promised a dim sum brand, and she had already instructed me to ask our family not to be polite and come over to get dim sum at any time. ”
"Okay, then I'll bring it back to Zhuzhu. I'm afraid this girl has been looking forward to it at the entrance of the village for a long time! The old man waved his hand, Tai Yongning also got into the car, and Tai Jizu hurried out of the city as soon as he flicked the whip......
