Chapter 42: The Forty-Second Day of Being an Old Lady
With less than half a penny, Cong's heart was so distressed that he wanted to see his son as soon as possible, so he said goodbye to the old lady and went to the academy.
The old lady took her grandson and granddaughter to the garment factory.
The guy in the garment shop was kind and coaxed the old lady to see that this dress was good, and that dress was good. Of course, the best look is the clothes that belong to the children.
Hu Yan'er has been a lot whiter recently, and her eyebrows have been revealed, and she is dressed in pink, and she looks even more delicate, just like a young lady in the city.
Although Hu Yueer is slightly inferior, she is not unlucky. The white and tender skin is like a shelled egg, white and ugly, and the more you look at it, the more tender it becomes.
As for the Iron Bull...... He doesn't know how beautiful or ugly he is, and he rejoices when he gives him a new dress.
The old lady did not favor one over the other, and chose two clothes for each child. Of course, it can't be a loss to the old lady, I bought two sets of clothes recommended by the guy, bought a few pieces of cloth, and went back to let the daughters-in-law make their own clothes.
The old lady who bought so many clothes became a big customer, and when she learned that the old lady lived in the countryside, the garment factory also provided a door-to-door delivery service. After making an appointment with the shopkeeper, the old lady took the children and prepared to leave, and a person broke in.
The shopkeeper who was still at the counter immediately greeted him:
"Third Young Master, why are you here?"
The old face of the shopkeeper is wrinkled and smiling, and his attitude is respectful; The "Third Young Master" looked angry and unceremoniously:
"Give me a thousand taels, if you need it urgently."
He stretched out his hand to the shopkeeper to ask for money, if it weren't for the two of them, it would be no different from robbery.
Opening her mouth is a thousand taels, the old lady shook her head silently, and every family has a scripture that is difficult to read.
The shopkeeper was neither humble nor arrogant, and said:
"The lord speaks, and you can get it from him with the silver."
This sentence undoubtedly stabbed the hornet's nest, and the "third young master" got up and kicked the shopkeeper to stumble, and the guy hurried to help. The "Third Young Master" is still scolding:
"Tao Xuan, you are just a dog raised by my grandson, what qualifications do you have to talk nonsense with me? Hurry up, if you delay your business, my father won't be able to spare you. ”
He tugged at a few pieces of cloth on the cabinet, full of impatience.
The poor old shopkeeper was still trying to reason while suffering from the unjustified disaster:
"Third Young Master, I, Tao Xuan, am a dog, and that is also the master's dog. Without the lord to speak, I can't give money. ”
The old lady silently praised the old shopkeeper in her heart: ambitious!
"If you dare not give me money, I will beat you to death!"
The "Third Young Master" was furious in an instant, he didn't care about this, and waved his fists mercilessly.
The old body of the shopkeeper couldn't stand steadily after being kicked by a kick, and if this fist fell on him, I was afraid that he would have to lose half his life. The fist swept by, and the old lady raised her hand to intercept the fist.
The fist of the "Third Young Master" failed to fall, his wrist hurt, and an old lady appeared next to him.
"Who are you?" He was inexplicably frightened, and quickly adjusted his momentum.
The old lady in a gorgeous brocade robe was graceful and dignified, just like a lady in the city. Qinghe County is often haunted by nobles, and the "Third Young Master" is also afraid that he will offend people who should not be offended, so he does not dare to act rashly.
The man in front of her gave the old lady an extremely uncomfortable feeling, as if she was covered in something dirty, and she felt disgusting at the first glance.
"Your ancestors."
The old lady shook off his arm and wondered if she would like to wipe her hands with a handkerchief?
"Oops!"
The "Third Young Master" was thrown back a few steps, and he didn't know what he thought, so he suddenly yelled:
"You dare to hit me?"
Beat?
The old lady looks at him like a fool, this is called beating?
The "Third Young Master" doesn't care, it doesn't matter that the old lady beats him, he has to take revenge and go back.
"Tao Xuan, what are you still doing in a daze? Someone is making trouble in the store, call me out! ”
He relies on the number of people to show off his might, and he lives like a gentleman, or the kind of gentleman with a hole in his brain.
The shopkeeper Tao was embarrassed and helpless, the old lady saved him by this move, how could he do that bad thing? But the lord has an order, and he has to obey it.
"Old lady, this is the third young master of our house. This piece of cloth you just fancied, how about I give it to you? The shopkeeper Tao accompanied the smiling face, not wanting to disturb the old lady.
Before the old lady could speak, the "third young master" over there was already impatient:
"Tao Xuan, what nonsense, call me out!"
He picked up a piece of cloth and threw it at the feet of the old lady, which did not scare the old lady, but made Hu Yue'er tremble.
The old lady protected her granddaughter, and originally planned to follow the kindness of the shopkeeper Tao, but now she will not let it.
"A good man with hands and feet does not want to make progress and asks for money from his family, and his skin is as thick as the city wall, and he is not ashamed. If I were your father, I would break your legs, so that I might not cause evil to men and defile the lintel. ”
The old lady scolded people with full of anger, and poked every sentence on the heart of the "third young master".
The people around secretly applauded, and the shopkeeper Tao did not step forward to stop him.
"How dare you scold me!" The "Third Young Master" was stunned, he had never been treated like this when he was so big. Who isn't kind to him, but this old lady?
Angry, he didn't care about whether this person could be offended, so he picked up the measuring stick on the cloth and rushed straight at the old lady.
"Don't bully my!" Tie Niu stood in front of the old lady, don't look at others as small, the momentum is not weak at all.
But where can he stop the adults? was waved away by the "third young master".
"Fuck off."
The iron bull sat down on the ground, and stubbornly got up again, and stood in front of the old lady.
"You dare to hit my grandson?"
The old lady was really angry this time, regardless of the fact that Sanqi Twenty-One grabbed the collar of the "Third Young Master" and dragged him out.
"Shopkeeper, I'm sorry to disturb you about business. No trouble in the store, let's go outside. ”
The shopkeeper Tao was not allowed to speak, and the old lady was like a chick so that the "third young master" was unable to parry.
The shackles of the big tongs finally brought the "third young master" back to his senses, and the old lady in front of him was dressed unusually, and her strength was amazing. In just a moment, the "Third Young Master" made a judgment: the old lady must be a noble person with status!
"Let go of me, let go of me, Tao Xuan, save me!"
At the critical moment, the only person the "Third Young Master" could ask for was the Tao shopkeeper. He stretched out his hand and grabbed it at the pottery shopkeeper, and his desire to survive was extremely strong.
The shopkeeper Tao also had a hard life, he was kicked, and he had to intercede for this loser.
"Old lady, I can't help it."
The shopkeeper Tao chased him out with the support of his buddy, there was no way, he was the shopkeeper of the Sun family, how could he watch the "third young master" being bullied under his nose?
"The third young master is reckless, and if you beat the little young master, I will make amends to you. You're all free today, okay? ”
The shopkeeper Tao is also a clever man, and when he opened his mouth, the "Third Young Master" beat someone and put all the responsibility on him.
The old lady bought a lot of things today and spent more than a dozen taels of silver. This order is all exempt, and the shopkeeper Tao also showed sincerity.
The old lady glanced at the "Third Young Master" who was already trembling with fright, and thought for a moment:
"Shopkeeper, I don't embarrass you, add two more pieces of cloth."
Tao shopkeeper: "...... Good! ”
The "Third Young Master", who was finally "saved", instantly stood up, he was not angry in his heart, and as soon as a different look appeared in his eyes, the old lady took a step forward, so frightened that he turned around and ran.
No amount of revenge, no amount of money, is as important as saving one's life.
"Hey, coward."
The old lady felt that the fight between this "third young master" and Boss Hu was both masters who bullied the weak and feared the hard.
