13 Refutation of rumors
Because there were many people coming in this wave, a total of three sets were ordered, so Qin Zichu gave them less than 20 Wen, which was considered a group purchase price.
In this way, five sets have been ordered.
The construction period is directly scheduled to the beginning of spring next year.
Su Ren was stunned when he came back and heard the news, and he spoke a little unfavorably, "It's just, just this morning?" ”
Sun Xiaoshan nodded and said with a smile: "They are all happy events." ”
Su Ren slowed down, and then stretched out his hand towards Qin Zichu, "Xiao Qin, let Dad take a look." ”
Qin Zichu handed the four deeds in his hand to Su Ren, and said with a smile: "It's going to be hard Dad." ”
Su Ren's eyes widened, although he was illiterate, the specifications and formats of the four deeds in his hand were exactly the same, and there were other people's fingerprints at the place where they were registered.
My brother-in-law can't be wrong.
Su Renxiao's mouth was almost closed, "It's not hard, you can do it with a few more sets of dads." ”
He said it with pride, but then he was pulled back to reality by Sun Xiaoshan's smiling words, "How many more sets?" What's in the spring? ”
Su Ren scratched his head and smiled innocently, "Also, I almost forgot." ”
He came back with a young man from the wood shop, and when he saw Carpenter Su busy talking to his family, he asked in a low voice, "Carpenter Su, where is this material for you?" ”
Su Ren turned his head and pointed to a certain place in the yard, and after the young man helped unload the wood, he suddenly thought of something, and pulled someone to order another batch of wood.
The timber he bought was compared to two sets, and now it is obviously not enough.
Before leaving, the young man pulled a large order, and said a lot of auspicious words excitedly, and even said the New Year's greetings smoothly.

A few days later, Lin Da's daughter-in-law from Dongxi Village came again.
Su Ren thought that she was here to urge the progress, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, this lady, you order two sets, I will make them for you quickly, and it will be done in less than a month." ”
Lin's daughter-in-law looked embarrassed, "Carpenter Su, I'm not here to urge you. ”
Su Ren was confused, "Huh? ”
Lin's daughter-in-law thought for a while and said euphemistically: "Carpenter Su, where did you buy this wood?" ”
Although Su Ren was puzzled, he still answered honestly, "The wood shop in the town." ”
There is only one timber shop in Tingshan Town.
Lin's daughter-in-law nodded, and asked again, "Then this set of tables and chairs should use a lot of materials, right?" ”
Su Ren has always disliked twists and turns, and he heard that there was something in Lin's daughter-in-law's words, so he said directly: "Lin's daughter-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it." ”
Su Ren was direct, and Lin's daughter-in-law was also relieved, and then she told the matter.
It turned out that someone had recently spread the news that Su Ren had cut corners in the village, and said that his asking price was too high, and it was inconvenient for everyone to go to the town to trap people.
Su Ren was so angry when he heard this, he is a craftsman, and he has been doing this little wood work diligently for half his life, you can say that he is not skilled in his craft, but you must not say that he cut corners.
It's a signboard thing.
Lin's daughter-in-law laughed, "I've been to the carpenter shop in the town, so I don't believe that the price you ask for is too high, but it's ...... to cut corners."
After all, she is from Dongxi Village, and the first time she asked Carpenter Su to make things, and it involved her sister's dowry, she really didn't dare to be sloppy, so she hurried over when she heard some rumors.
If it did, she still had time to think of something else.
Su Ren was originally sitting on the carpentry chair, but now he stood up angrily, "Daughter-in-law Lin, you tell me, who is spreading my reputation outside, I have to talk to him about it." ”
Sun Xiaoshan didn't come out originally, but now he hurried out when he heard that something was wrong.
"What's the matter, I have something to say."
He thought that Su Ren and Lin's daughter-in-law had quarreled, although it was quite unbelievable.
Lin's daughter-in-law explained to her again.
Now Sun Xiaoshan was also angry.
Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Lin Da's daughter-in-law also knew that she had wronged people, and said embarrassedly: "Uncle, don't be angry with me, I also deceived someone." ”
Sun Xiaoshan patted Su Ren's arm and said helplessly, "Who is chewing the root of the tongue outside?" ”
Lin's daughter-in-law thought for a while, "I also heard from the people of Luobian Village, sister-in-law, think about it, have you ever had a red face with anyone recently?" ”
Sun Xiaoshan's first suspicion was Zhu Lanxiang, but Zhu Lanxiang hadn't come to the door recently, and even if he bumped into him while washing clothes, he was not as yin and yang as in the past.
It's not her, is it......
After Sun Xiaoshan sent the people away, he went out with a basket.
It's almost lunchtime, and many people are washing vegetables by the river.
As soon as Sun Xiaoshan appeared, he attracted everyone's attention, and Sun Xiaoshan didn't see the lawsuits of these people, so he found a vacant seat and squatted down and began to wash vegetables.
"Xiaoshan, I heard that you have ordered five sets of tables and chairs?"
Sun Xiaoshan nodded at the questioner, and didn't hide anything.
"So many sets of what your Su Er can do, don't miss the ploughing of the fields in the spring of next year."
"No, it won't."
Seeing that Sun Xiaoshan had always been salty and not light, he said directly: "The tables and chairs we ordered can be the same as Brother Xing'er's dowry, don't fool us." ”
Sun Xiaoshan stopped what he was doing and said, "You didn't know my man for the first day, you don't know if he was the fool?" ”
"That's right, but this time it's a lot, and a set costs a tael of silver."
It means that this time some of the corners are earned, unlike before, they were all petty fights.
Sun Xiaoshan showed a little anger, "Who said this?" ”
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, they are still angry when they see Su Erjia for the first time.
"It's not Aunt Fang yet, as she said."
Sun Xiaoshan: "......"
Really.
"A while ago, we bumped into my aunt and went to your house to book tables and chairs, and my face was really not good-looking, did I have a red face with you?"
Sun Xiaoshan said the matter simply, "...... The price she gave was too low, and it didn't matter if she didn't make money, we had to pour money into it, so naturally we didn't respond to her. ”
Everyone immediately wondered, "What price did she give?" ”
"Seven pennies of silver."
"Huo!"
One or two pieces of silver were returned to seven coins of silver, and everyone was also shocked by Aunt Fang's boldness.
Especially those who had just booked tables and chairs, they were anxious when they heard it, "Su Er's family, can't you promise her, a few of us went together and only lost twenty wen, why should she?" ”
Sun Xiaoshan nodded, "My brother-in-law also said so, if this price is given, we will pay for it ourselves, and those of you who have booked tables and chairs in front of us will not be able to explain, you trust us, we can't chill your hearts." ”
These words were all said by Qin Zichu, and Sun Xiaoshan learned a rough idea.
"It's not, it's still a scholar who is sensible, if Aunt Fang orders seven coins of silver, then we will have to go to your family to return the silver."
The others who had not ordered a table and chair also nodded, "This is indeed the reason." ”
"Everyone has a price, and it saves us a lot of effort."
"Don't say anything else, the price of this piece of Su carpenter has not cheated us, we all know the price of wood in the town."
"What the Fang family said has a nose and eyes, I still saw it with her own eyes, and she didn't take advantage of it for a long time."
Sun Xiaoshan left after figuring things out, and didn't pay attention to Zhu Lanxiang squatting in the corner.
Zhu Lanxiang happened to meet Aunt Shang on the way back after washing the vegetables, and Aunt Fang immediately came over to talk to her, but Zhu Lanxiang took a detour directly, and rolled her eyes when she left.
Aunt Fang: "......"
What kind of madness is this woman?
*
Since Sun Xiaoshan said those words by the river, the family has received several more orders.
Su Ren originally wanted to push it off, but he was afraid that he would delay the work in the field when the time came.
As a result, these companies took the initiative to say that they were not for errands, but for their own home use, and they were not in a hurry.
Su Ren responded.
But even if people said so, he didn't plan to delay it for too long, and the work in his hands sped up a little, and he couldn't wait to sleep.
Sun Xiaoshan couldn't cry or laugh, and Qin Zichu and Su Xiaohan also repeatedly dissuaded him, so they stopped him.
Lying on the bed at night, Su Xiaohan leaned on Qin Zichu's chest and whispered, "Dad is really too hard to be alone. ”
Qin Zichu touched the head of the person in his arms and said with a smile: "Hasn't Xiao Han been helping his father?" ”
Su Xiaohan was a little embarrassed, "Where will I be, just give my father a hand, and I can't help if I'm serious." ”
"Who said that Xiao Han is the most capable."
Su Xiaohan couldn't help laughing, "Xianggong, you are teasing me again." ”
"Xiaohan, I'll teach you how to keep accounts well, as well as abacus, so that you can help your father more."
Su Xiaohan immediately raised his head, his two big eyes shining in the moonlight, "Really? ”
"Really."
Su Xiaohan was a little apprehensive, "But I haven't read or read, and I can't read." ”
"The Xiang Guild taught you."
After staring at Qin Zichu for a moment, Su Xiaohan saw the trust and expectation in Xianggong's eyes, and the original worries disappeared, "Hmm." ”
The next day, Qin Zichu began to teach Su Xiaohan to settle accounts.
He drew a table first, and then began to teach Su Xiaohan to recognize numbers.
Su Ren heard that Xiao Han wanted to learn to settle accounts, so he immediately went to another house to borrow an abacus, "You use it first, and then I will go to the town to buy one next time." ”
Su Xiaohan took it, "Thank you, Dad." ”
Su Ren touched his head and said happily: "Learn from my brother and son-in-law, my father is waiting for your help." ”
Su Xiaohan was even happier after hearing this, "I know Dad." ”
He moved a chair and sat with Xianggong, and the two leaned intimately against each other.
Qin Zichu didn't feel cold anymore, and even the hand stove that Xiao Han bought for him put aside.
"Xianggong, teach me quickly."
Qin Zichu looked at his wife who was full of innocence and curiosity, and his heart was itching, "Xiaohan, do you know that being a master has to be restrained." ”
Su Xiaohan nodded, "I know." ”
His wife was so well-behaved, Qin Zichu resisted the urge to pinch his little face, and continued to say seriously: "For Xiaohan's sake, Xianggong will only accept a little bit." ”
Su Xiaohan smelled a familiar breath, blushed and said, "What does Xianggong want to receive?" ”
Qin Zichu's slender index finger touched his mouth lightly, and the implication was very obvious.
Now that there was no one in the house, Su Xiaohan endured his shyness and came up to kiss Xianggong, and then sat back with a sigh.
"Xianggong, is this okay?"
Qin Zichu smiled and said, "This is today's share, and I will have to collect it every day in the future." ”
"Xianggong ......"
Qin Zichu pretended to be serious, "Does Xiao Han want to bargain with Master Xiang?" ”
Su Xiaohan: "......"
Master Xianggong is so embarrassed to listen to.
