CH.63 Let's propose
As soon as Ma Niangzi and Zhang Guanshi left, Mrs. Wang snorted: "A nest of snakes and rats." ”
Qin Xiangxiang didn't care, and beckoned to the red sleeves: "How did I mix the sauce just now, do you remember everything?" ”
Redsleeves nodded: "I remember everything." ”
"Very good, let's start learning how to fry tofu. Tonight, the restaurant will stop selling flat food, just fried tofu and rice. ”
Qin thought about it and coughed again.
Everyone looked at her worriedly, and she waved her hand: "I'm fine, I've drunk all the medicine, I'll go back to my room and lie down." ”
After speaking, just as he was about to raise his legs and go back, Uncle Hai came in and said, "Big lady, there is a matchmaker outside, saying that he wants to propose to Red Sleeves." ”
Red Sleeves was taken aback: "Propose to me?" ”
It was a serious matchmaker, surnamed Yang, dressed in red and green, in his early forties, with a round face and fat face, squinting eyes, looking very festive, and looking up and down at the red sleeves: "Sure enough, it's a beauty, no wonder the yellow official thing urged and urged, so I had to let the old man quickly come to the matchmaker." ”
Red sleeves was so angry that her face turned red, who would have thought that the shameless Huang Gongshi had stripped the eldest lady of thirty yuan of money, and he still had the face to think about her.
She said with a cold face: "I don't care what yellow or green business I do, I won't agree." ”
Yang Matchmaker hid Par and grinned: "Little lady, don't be in a hurry to refuse, this Huang Gongshi, although she is older, but in the end, she is a person in the public family, this glory and wealth is still to come." Huang Gongshi can say that if he marries a little lady, he will definitely let the little lady's hands not touch the spring water, and she will only be the wife of an official. ”
Red Sleeves snorted coldly: "No need, you just call him dead." ”
How could Yang matchmaker be so easy to die, and still agitated a three-inch tongue: "This Huang Gongshi, he is an only son, and he only has two parents in the family, and there are no brothers and sisters in the family." Recently, Huang Gonggong bought a new house, new furniture, and a new servant, everything is new. The little lady married in the past, and she only enjoyed the blessings. The little lady was born so well, this filthy foot shop, is the little lady willing to wash these filthy things here? ”
Seeing that Red Sleeves was unmoved, she was anxious and lowered her voice: "I heard that Huang Gongshi has saved a lot of money in Qianzhuang!" ”
Coldly, a hoarse voice came in from the side: "This Huang Gong is really capable, but a small official can earn such a big family business." ”
Yang Matchmaker was startled, and looked at Qin Xiangxiang, Qin Xiangxiang smiled at her, and the wine vortex was not revealed.
Before coming, Huang Gongshi of course specially instructed Yang Matchmaker, the owner of this red-sleeved little lady, may not be easy to deal with. After all, such a beautiful little lady is a living signboard in a humble foot shop. Those lowly porters can't marry such beautiful wives, but they can't feast their eyes, right?
Yang Matchmaker laughed so hard that his mouth cracked under his ears: "It's all because the old man is in a hurry, and he actually forgot about Qindian's house." ”
As she spoke, she pulled Qin Xiangxiang aside, and said in Qin Xiangxiang's ear: "Qin shop, this Huang official matter has also been ordered, if this matter is completed, in the future, Qin shopkeepers will not have to buy thirty guan of salt to attract money, only need to buy ten guan." ”
Qin thought about the high fever and didn't go away, and even felt that his breath was steaming: "Then I have to thank Huang Gongshi for his great kindness?" ”
Yang Matchmaker smiled: "That's not. If the two of us form an in-law, then the Qin store will be regarded as someone in the public gate. After being bullied in the future, Huang Gongshi can't cover the Qin shop. ”
Qin Xiang thought about it and nodded: "It's a very cost-effective family business." ”
Yang Matchmaker was overjoyed: "It's really good that the Qin store thinks so......"
"I only said it was a good deal, and I didn't say yes." Qin thought about it and smiled.
Yang matchmaker was stunned, and his face was a little annoyed: "Qin's shopkeeper doesn't toast or eat and drink." ”
Qin Xiangxiang took a few steps back, and the expression on his face seemed to be smiling: "I don't like to eat any wine." Mother Wang, send off! ”
Mrs. Wang rushed over with her head held high: "The gate is over there, please!" ”
Yang Matchmaker was angry, flicked his handkerchief, twisted his body and went out: "You wait!" ”
Tian Xiang was very fragrant: "Then Huang Gongshi doesn't look in the mirror, see what he looks like, and think of some good things!" "She almost wanted to scold the toad for wanting to eat swan meat!
Red Sleeves looked worried: "Big lady, if that Huang Gongshi is embarrassed because of this matter, what should I do?" ”
Qin thought about it and said: "The soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth, if he wants to provoke trouble, just come." Well, that's the end of it. ”
I just poured a bowl of medicine, but I was a little sleepy.
Mrs. Wang also raised her head and said: "Yes, we are not an unsightly identity, although the master is not in the capital, he is still an official." He can't just grab it. ”
But what if he is still an official, the Qin family doesn't even have a house. The second lady was still locked up in Dali Temple, and a group of them hid in this dilapidated foot shop, surviving for a bite to eat. Thinking of these, Tian Xiang was so worried that he couldn't swallow it.
Red Sleeves adapted quickly: "Tian Xiang, come and help me." "The eldest lady is sick, and she has to carry the burden.
Mrs. Wang followed Qin Xiangxiang back to the room: "Big lady, this is a high fever, you have to cover your sweat, come, the old slave will cover you with a quilt." ”
Qin thought about being top-heavy, so he went with her, fell on the bed and was confused for a while, feeling that there was a quilt covering his body, so he closed his eyes peacefully and fell asleep.
Before going to bed, he said vaguely: "Thank you, Mother Wang......"
Mrs. Wang hurriedly replied: "It's all what the old slave should do." ”
Qin Xiangxiang didn't make any more movements.
Mrs. Wang looked at Qin Xiangxiang and fell asleep, so she tiptoed out.
She went back to her room to see Siping first. Siping's wounds were all scabbed, but she was still unconscious. In the past few days, it has taken a lot of effort for Mrs. Wang to pour rice soup into Siping's mouth. Siping, who only drinks rice soup, is visibly thin with the naked eye.
"Poor boy." Mrs. Wang said to herself, and tucked the quilt covered by Siping with her hand.
Suddenly, she saw Siping's eyelids move, and then slowly opened them.
"Siping, you're awake!" Mrs. Wang was ecstatic.
Siping looked at Mrs. Wang blankly, wanting to make a sound, but she could only make a vague sound. Mrs. Wang burst into tears: "Child, your tongue has been cut off, and you can no longer speak." ”
Tears flowed from the corners of Siping's eyes.
Mrs. Wang wiped her tears: "But the eldest lady said that no matter what, she will support you." Blessed are you, child. ”
Siping sighed twice, looking at Mrs. Wang with hopeful eyes.
Mrs. Wang actually understood what she meant: "Second lady, second lady is still locked up in Dali Temple...... But don't worry, the eldest lady has gone to see the second lady, and the second lady is safe and sound. ”
When Siping heard this, she closed her eyes as if she was exhausted.
Mrs. Wang said to herself: "It's a conscientious child, and she still remembers the second lady like this." ”
Spring is short, but in the blink of an eye, it's time for dinner.
Tonight is much quieter than last night. When the tall feet led many brothers into the door, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Those little ladies last night were really scary. Although he has the thief heart to steal incense, when he really meets the little lady of a high-ranking family surrounded by a family of people, his courage is still not strong.
I was finally able to eat a meal quietly.
"This fried tofu is very good for rice!" And the price is also very affordable, although the fried tofu is vegetarian, but you don't have to go to work after eating it at night, and even the rice is ten cents a piece, which is also very cost-effective.
It's too early to say the tall feet.
When he led the second group of brothers over, the waterwheel alley began to crowd into the red tent incense carts again.
The little lady who entered the Qin family's restaurant was very excited: "I heard that you were kicked by the Ma lady from the Ma Family Tavern in Sweet Water Alley, and you lost?" ”
