Chapter 208: Wang Po Comes to the Door
At three o'clock in the morning, Wu Song woke up, he was drunk last night, and he had a terrible headache after getting up. Pro-Shell Pavilion
"Dongdong, Dongdong!"
There was a knock on the door.
"Who!"
Pan Jinlian was boiling water when she heard a knock on the door and hurriedly opened it.
"It's the lady of the Pan family! I'm from the tea shop next door. ”
Wang Po looked at Pan Jinlian who opened the door with a smile, and when she took a closer look, she found that Pan Jinlian was eyebrows like willow leaves in early spring, often hating the rain and feeling sorrowful; The face is like a peach blossom in March, hiding the amorous moon. The slender waist bird, the restrained swallow lazy warbler; The sandalwood mouth is light, seducing the bees and butterflies. The jade looks enchanting and the flowers are interpreted, and the fragrant beauty is beautiful and the jade is fragrant.
"Sure enough, he was born with a lovely mark, no wonder he was able to hook the soul of that prodigal."
Wang Po secretly thought to herself in her heart, Pan Jinlian's appearance is really beautiful and moving, no wonder Ximenqing was hooked to his soul.
"It turned out to be Wang Ganniang next door!"
Pan Jinlian also knows about the teahouse next door, but she rarely goes out and hasn't been there yet.
"The lady is home alone? If you have nothing to do, you can go to my tea shop to eat a bowl of tea, and our neighbors are familiar with each other. ”
Wang Po invited Pan Jinlian with a smile.
"Wang Ganniang, Wudutou is drunk at home today, let's do it another day!"
Pan Jinlian saw that it was difficult for her neighbors to refuse the invitation, but she really couldn't go out today.
"Wudutou is at home? That's how it should be, and the old woman won't bother. ”
When Wang Po heard that Wu Song was at home, she was shocked, and she didn't dare to enter the door, so she left after saying a word.
"Who's calling the door?"
Wu Song only came out at this time.
"It's Wang Ganniang next door, I'll go get hot soup."
Pan Jinlian saw that Wu Song had gotten up, and hurriedly went to bring hot water to wash.
"How are you doing?"
Wu Song looked at Pan Jinlian bringing hot soup, remembered Cao Zheng's words yesterday, and suddenly said with concern.
"Good!"
Pan Jinlian hurriedly lowered her head and said, Wu Song is a little strange today, and he usually doesn't ask about these things.
"If you have any grievances, you can say it, if you don't want to be here, I can also give you some entanglement and send you home."
Wu Song spoke again.
"Home? I...... I don't have a home anymore. ”
Pan Jinlian's eyes were slightly red, and she whispered.
"Did I say something I shouldn't have said?"
Wu Song was a little remorseful, he was a straightforward person, he wouldn't have said these words, he was said by Cao Zhengyi last night, and he only thought of asking today, and this opening seems to be wrong.
"If you don't have a home, you live here, don't think you're a handmaiden, just treat it as your own home, I don't need to be a subordinate."
Wu Song said with some annoyance.
"How does this work?"
Pan Jinlian couldn't believe her ears, from the moment she sold herself, she was destined to be a handmaiden.
"There's nothing that can't be done, it's just me and my brother at home, you can just be casual, I'll go to the county office."
Wu Song went out to the county government after washing, and before he arrived this morning, the county must be looking for him everywhere again, and there is nothing to do, why do you order Mao all day and let him stay in the county office?
In the tea house.
"Grandma Wang, the tea is gone!"
A tea-drinking patron urged.
"The tea is sold out, it's closed today! Come early another day! ”
When Wang Po saw Wu Song going out, she immediately said to several tea guests.
"If the sun doesn't go over my head, why is the tea gone? What kind of business are you doing here! ”
Several tea drinkers complained.
"If you really don't prepare today, the tea money will be free!"
Wang Po was in a hurry to go out, and directly waived the tea money for a few pennies.
"Young, why are you so generous today, a stingy old woman?"
Several tea guests were surprised when they heard this, but they all left, and Wang Po's advantage was not often taken advantage of.
After sending off the tea customers, Wang Po closed the door of the shop, and then knocked on the door of the martial arts.
"Wang Ganniang? But what's the matter? ”
Pan Jinlian saw that Wang Po was coming again, and asked suspiciously, there must be something wrong with coming twice in a row.
"Lady, the old body has a request, I hope the lady agrees."
Wang Po looked at Pan Jinlian's skillful hands and said, just by looking at her, she knew that Pan Jinlian was doing a good job of embroidery.
"Godmother, please tell me something."
Pan Jinlian said.
"There is a donor official and I have a set of clothes for the end, the old body tea shop business is clear, and I can't afford two dollars, I want to ask the lady if it's good to embroider."
Wang Po looked at Pan Jinlian and asked.
"This sewing and mending will be done, but the shroud has never been done, so it is better to go to the tailor's shop."
Pan Jinlian shook her head and said, she has learned female workers since she was a child, and she can make ready-to-wear clothes, but she has never made shrouds.
"Lady, it costs a lot of money to find a tailor, it's better for the lady to help the old body, you see the old woman and I am alone......"
As she spoke, the princess began to pretend to be pitiful and wipe her tears.
"That's it, I'll help Wang Ganniang do it at home."
Pan Jinlian saw that Wang Po was really a lonely widow, and she couldn't bear it, but now she had to cook for Wu Song and Wu Dalang every day, and she really couldn't leave.
"Lady, it's better to go to my tea shop to do it, and you can still drink tea, which can be regarded as a thank you to the old woman."
Seeing that Pan Jinlian was not fooled, Wang Po began to play tricks again, seeing that Pan Jinlian was not taking the bait, she knew that this woman must be satisfied with this martial artist, who could not be dissatisfied with Wu Erlang, who was fighting the tiger?
However, Wang Po still has a last trick, as long as she takes Pan Jinlian out and finds an opportunity to put some medicine in the tea, then Pan Jinlian can't help but be unwilling, this is a common trick she used to abduct and sell women when she was a tooth woman.
"This ...... I'm afraid it won't work, there are still a lot of things going on in this house, and I also have to cook. ”
Pan Jinlian shook her head and said, she has to make the cooking cakes that Wu Dalang sells every day, she has to clean up the courtyard of the house, and there are daily meals, she really can't leave.
"Lady, you can pity the poor old woman, just a few days, a few clothes will be soon."
The princess began to hide her face and weep again.
"Wang Ganniang...... If you don't wait for Wudutou to come back, I'll ask! ”
Pan Jinlian really couldn't shirk it.
"Lady, this little thing is not the head of the labor, you can just call the shots, just do it at noon for a while, and don't delay you coming back to cook."
Wang Po immediately began to persuade again.
"Let's wait for Wudutou to come back."
Pan Jinlian shook her head and refused, Wu Song's attitude towards her had eased today, and she couldn't make her own decisions now.
Wang Po was not good at persuading for a long time, so she had to give a bag of tea as a gift, and she would speak again next time.
Back at the tea shop, Ximenqing didn't know when he had come.
"Godmother, how's it going?"
Ximen Qing asked impatiently.
"This woman is not easy to say, she only has Wu Song who fights tigers in her eyes."
Wang Po is naturally not angry when she is not good at teaching, and she is not polite to Ximenqing, who let Ximenqing ask him.
"Godmother, and the woman you can't take?"
Ximenqing said with a smile.
"There is a way, you have to take the tiger away first, that woman looks strong, in fact, she is a strong outsider, no wonder she is a handmaiden, without Wu Song, the backbone, or is she led by the nose?"
Wang Po looked at Ximenqing and said.
"Take Wu Song?"
Ximenqing frowned and thought about it.
"Big official, you often move around in the county government, and you have a good relationship with the magistrate, can you still take Wu Song's head?"
Wang Po looked at Ximenqing and asked.
"There is a way, wait until I go back and ask the county minister, find an errand and let Wu Song go out for three or five months!"
Ximenqing nodded and said, there are a lot of business trips in the county office, find a long way for Wu Song to go, and he may not be able to come back for half a year.
