Chapter 211: Good things can't be taken from both ends
Yang Lihua has been too busy lately to make a new dress for her daughter, but she can't stand the beads to be likable.
On the few occasions when the family walked around with Mrs. Min and Mrs. Wu, both of them gave them a complete set of dresses. In addition, Tai Yongan exchanged the jewelry from the manager of Min Liang, and Zhuzhu is now a veritable little rich woman.
Entering the city today, Yang Lihua picked out a peach-colored spring shirt for her daughter, with a willow green skirt, and two beaded flowers on the small embroidered toe top, reflecting the sun when she walked, shining.
Zhuzhu has gained weight again, the fleshy little milk fat on her face, her big eyes are watery, her small nose, her pink mouth, and her chubby little hands, she can't help but praise when she sees it, what a good fat girl, she is blessed when she looks at it.
The old man held his granddaughter's little hand, his back straightened by three points, and he was proud.
Such a cute, blessed fat girl is his granddaughter!
Tai Jizu had already made an appointment with the carriage in the city and was already waiting in front of the door.
Three generations of three people, old and young, were just about to get into the car, and people came on the road in the distance.
The old man's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help frowning.
Life at home is much better than before, but relatively speaking, all kinds of complicated trivial things are also coming one after another, and there are few moments of peace.
Especially for people who come to the door without saying hello like this, most of them are troublesome.
Sure enough, the old man guessed correctly, and the carriage stopped when it arrived at the entrance of the village, and two middle-aged people in satin clothes jumped out one after the other, looking at them all with fresh faces.
Xu had already inquired about the news, and when the two saw the old man and others standing at the gate of the courtyard, they stepped forward to greet each other.
"Excuse me, but is the Tai family's Sixth Master Tai?"
Old Man Tai nodded and responded, "Exactly, I don't know where the two guests came from, is there something wrong with our family?" ”
The two men immediately laughed enthusiastically and replied one after another.
"The old man is fine, the contemptible surname is Yue, he is doing some small business in the city, and he specially visited the door today, which is really disturbing."
"Yes, the old man is good, the contemptible surname is Hu, I am fortunate to meet you."
The smile on Old Man Tai's face was reduced by three points, he was not blind, these two looked enthusiastic, but there was a little contempt in their eyes. Apparently enthusiasm is feigned, in order to achieve certain goals.
As for what the purpose is, then we have to look at it again.
"The two of you are polite, you are a guest at the door, let's go to the house and drink tea." The old man gave Tai Jizu a look, and Tai Jizu pulled the coachman, stuffed him with a handful of copper coins, and worked hard for him to wait a little longer.
The coachman was happy, after all, he didn't have to work, and the carriage didn't have to move around to make money.
Yang Lihua was just about to go to the backyard to be busy, when she suddenly saw the old man hugging Zhuzhu and turning back, followed by two strangers, and Zhuzhu's mouth was already pouting enough to hang an oil bottle......
She hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the beads, and called Erya to prepare tea and snacks.
The old man naturally saw his granddaughter's aggrieved little fat face, so he was even more dissatisfied with these two uninvited guests.
Simply, he didn't go around in circles, and asked straight to the point, "Our village is really remote, I don't know what the two of you came here for?" ”
The two men looked at each other when they heard this, and they were also a little unhappy in their hearts, and secretly disliked the peasant family for not knowing how to be polite.
Whoever has a guest comes to the door, not all of them have a cup of tea and then ask for their intentions.
If the old man knew what they thought, he would definitely spit on them.
Whoever comes to the door empty-handed, who doesn't say hello in advance.
It's not that the Tai family covets that little bit of their son's things, but they have been broken again and again, which makes people really unhappy.
The man surnamed Yue coughed dryly and responded, "The old man is quick to talk, so we won't go around in circles." In fact, I heard people in the city yesterday that the Tai family opened a cashmere workshop, specializing in selling cashmere mats and cashmere pants, which is really exquisite and rare. We were curious to see if we could open our eyes and see what we could see. ”
The man surnamed Hu was also helpful, "Yes, old man, I am also a villager in Tai'an County, no foreigner knows the name of cashmere clothes and pants, but our own family has never seen the truth, isn't it?" ”
The old man guessed that the two stewards from the countryside had made a deal yesterday, and he showed his mouth.
Although there is no cashmere business to hide at home, it has not been publicized in the end, just to reduce unnecessary trouble.
I didn't expect the trouble to come to the door so quickly.
He thought for a moment and said, "It's not a coincidence that the two brothers came, yesterday a merchant from the south ordered all the inventory. I'm afraid that the next batch will take half a month to compile it, why don't you two wait and come back then? ”
The two men didn't expect to be rejected so thoroughly, and they both had cold faces.
"Old man, we don't want to grab business, we just want to open our eyes. You are so precautionary, but it hurts our feelings for the same Tai'an folks! "The surname Yue is more powerful, and the other person is worse, but he also agrees.
"Yes, old man. The merchant from the south blew the cashmere pants and cushions to the sky, and wished that his tail was in the sky, but we were both Tai'an people but had never seen it, so it was impossible to say. ”
At this time, another carriage arrived outside the courtyard, and Tai Jizu frowned and led two strangers in.
greeted each other, and came to the cashmere mats and cashmere pants.
And these two people have been on a rampage for a long time, and they are actually familiar with Min Guanshi, even if they have drunk with Tai Jiye......
Yang Lihua didn't want to enter the house, and when she saw that the momentum was not right, she found an excuse to invite the old man out.
Tai Jizu also came over and said worriedly, "What the hell is going on?" Suddenly, they all came to our cashmere clothes and pants, and they didn't look like they were going to get the goods. ”
"Hmph, what's going on, it's just that I'm red-eyed, I want to see what kind of wealth our family has gained, and I'm going to find a chance to get a piece of the pie!" The old man snorted coldly, and then instructed his son, "Jiye is not at home, we don't understand business matters, and it is easy to suffer." You go into the city and ask Steward Min to help......"
As soon as he was halfway through the conversation, Tai Sanye and Steward Min came in from outside.
It turned out that Tai Sanye heard at home that the gate of the old brother's yard was blocked by a carriage, so he was afraid that something would happen, so he rushed to see what the situation was.
Steward Min also heard the wind in the city and rushed to help.
Old Man Tai breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly greeted him, and explained the matter in a few words.
Steward Min comforted, "Uncle, our family's business is good, and sooner or later it will be spread." It's just a few days earlier than expected! With so many people looking for it, it's not good for our family to keep it hidden. It's better to take a few pairs of cashmere cushions for a while, and if they want to order, they will push it back until Jiye returns. ”
"Okay, that's what I'm going to do." Old man Tai has a helper, and he has a bottom in his heart.
When they entered the house again, everyone inevitably exchanged pleasantries again.
The Min family is one of the best in the city, and the Min steward also has a bit of face, and he is also full of posture for a few and a half large vendors, even talking and laughing, and it doesn't take a moment to make a few "uninvited guests" a lot more honest.
