Chapter 153: Purse Trading
In this way, in the blink of an eye, it is three years.
The sun is warm in early spring.
A secluded village in the countryside called 'Lijia Village' in the mortal world.
A woman with a white veil was sitting on a round bench in the courtyard of a farmhouse embroidering a purse, her head bowed slightly, and the embroidery thread in her hand fell together, embroidering very devotedly.
"Miss. The fence gate of the farmhouse courtyard was gently pushed open with a "creak", and Ah Jun walked in with a smile carrying a basket woven with bamboo knots.
Ruan Zhichun raised his head, and the corners of his eyes curved, "Ajun, you run to me with things every day, aren't you afraid that your family Li Donghe will fall behind you?"
"How dare he?"
Ah Jun threw the bamboo basket in his hand on the marble round table and said, "The eldest lady treats me like a sister, what can he count." ”
After speaking, Ah Jun lifted the hijab curtain on the bamboo basket and took out the contents one by one, "Miss, look, I brought you something delicious today." ”
Ruan Zhichun put down the embroidery in his hand and looked at her with a smile, "It's osmanthus cake, ah, and milk cake." ”
"Hurry, come and pay it off. Ah Jun casually picked up a plate and put it in front of Ruan Zhichun.
Ruan Zhichun half-lifted the veil, took a bite of the osmanthus cake, chewed it twice, nodded and praised, "Well, Ah Jun's skills have improved a lot." ”
Ah Jun smiled with satisfaction: "The eldest lady likes to eat, and Ah Jun will make it for you every day in the future." ”
Ruan Zhichun scolded softly: "How many times have you said it, don't take a bite of a big lady, here, there is no big lady." ”
"Also, now that you are married and have become someone else's wife, you have to look like a wife, and run to me all day long, sending this and that, Li Donghe doesn't say it, and he must be unhappy in his heart. ”
Ah Jun grabbed Ruan Zhichun's hand, very easy-going, "Oh, eldest miss, if it weren't for you in the past three years, Ah Jun might not have lived like a child, now that we have settled down in this Lijia Village, Ah Jun can still marry the person he wants to marry here, it is all the credit of the eldest lady, Li Donghe is too late to thank you, how can you be so petty." ”
Ruan Zhichun smiled again when he heard this, and poked Ah Jun's head with his hand, extremely friendly, "You...... It's capricious. ”
Ah Jun greeted her for a while, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that Ruan Zhichun had a lot of purses in today's embroidered basket.
Then he asked strangely, "Miss, why are you embroidering so much today?" Is there any new trick?"
"Well, Nishimura Lao Li picked up a big customer in the city, and said that he would wrap all the purses I embroidered, and the more the better. As he spoke, Ruan Zhichun picked up the embroidery thread and embroidered it one needle deeper and one needle shallower.
"I'm in a hurry, and that's all I can do. ”
"That's enough, the eldest lady occasionally wants to give her eyes a break, but don't hurt your eyes. While comforting, Ah Jun picked up Ruan Zhichun's embroidered purse and looked at it carefully.
"The eldest lady is really unmatched in this embroidery, the so-called wisdom knows the hero, Bole knows the horse, what is a good saddle with a good horse...... , a good donkey pushes a good grind...... Anyway, it is the good embroidery that will be appreciated, and the big customer must also be a person with vision. ”
Ruan Zhichun was amused by Ah Jun's so-called famous words that he couldn't go to the village and didn't go to the store, "What are you talking about......
Ah Jun smiled embarrassedly, "Ah Jun is only a shallow learner, and this ink is still learned from the eldest lady." ”
Ruan Zhichun shook his head, "You girl, when did I teach you this?"
"Hey......
The two of them, you say a word, I say a word, in this small farm yard talk very happily, it seems that the picture is harmonious, although this small life is not a lot of wealth, but also quality and happiness.
Three years ago, Ruan Zhichun chose to settle here, firstly, to avoid Zexi, secondly, she didn't want to stay in Yecheng to disturb Zexi and Qiu'er's life, and thirdly, she didn't want to stay in the city that made her sad, she just wanted to find a quiet place to spend the rest of her life.
Ruan Zhichun has a bit of craftsmanship, occasionally paints a picture scroll, helps others copy a notebook, and now embroiders a purse, earning some silver more or less enough for his own food, clothing, and ferry.
It's just that in the past few days, Lao Li of the West Village, who often helps him bring goods to the market to sell, meets the big customer, I don't know what kind of person he is?
What's the use of him or her buying so many purses?
Ordinary people with purses, one is enough, even if it is old or tired, but it is also replaced with one, not necessarily someone is so generous, buy so many purses at once, and buy it every day.
The more Ruan Zhichun thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he went to the West Village to find Lao Li.
Lao Li said that the buyer was a young man who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old.
Ruan Zhichun felt that it was even more wrong, this sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man could buy a purse and give it to a girl, but how many girls did he want to give to him if he bought so much at once?
Ruan Zhichun was too lazy to guess, so he said to Lao Li: "Tomorrow's delivery, I'll go with you, this guest takes care of my business so much, I should thank you in person." ”
Lao Li nodded and agreed.
On the second day, Ruan Zhichun followed Lao Li to the market, and Lao Li brought Ruan Zhichun into a teahouse, which was the daily connection point between Lao Li and the buyer.
Ruan Zhichun found a corner of the teahouse and settled down first, and watched how Lao Li made a deal with the buyer.
The guy who received the goods soon appeared, seeing that he was indeed a sixteen or seventeen-year-old guy, not tall, and he looked quite clever, seeing Lao Li, he greeted him with a smile, "Lao Li, how many goods did you bring today." ”
Lao Li took out the baggage, handed it to the guy with confidence, and said, "The Ah Chun girl in the village rushed to make it day and night, that's all, it's all here." ”
The young man took the burden, but the goods were not checked, so he took out the money from his clothes and handed it to Lao Li, saying, "You can order some of these silvers." ”
Lao Li weighed how much money there was, and said, "Thank you so much for the little boy's care, I took this silver for Miss Ah Chun first." ”
"No problem, even if Lao Li brings his purse, I will take as much as I want. ”
"Howler. ”
The young man received the goods, and was about to turn around and leave with his baggage.
Ruan Zhichun hurriedly walked over from the side and stopped him: "Little boy, please stay." ”
"Who is this girl?"
Seeing this, Lao Li introduced the guy to him, "This is Miss Ah Chun, and this purse is from this girl's hand." ”
Xiaoqiu looked at the woman wrapped in a scarf in front of her, sighed, and exclaimed: "Oh, I see, the girl is so good." ”
Ruan Zhichun was polite, "The little boy has won the award." Then he asked, "Dare to ask the little boy, what is the use of you asking for so many purses every day?"
"Here, give it away. Xiaoqiu looked at the burden in his hand and said.
"Who to send, to send so much?".
The young man smiled strangely: "Miss Ah Chun is really strange, you just embroider it and hand it over to me, the silver of the white flowers, a lot of yours, why are you stopping me from asking so much?"
Seeing that the guy didn't answer, Ruan Zhichun became more and more strange, and he felt uneasy when he put this money from unknown sources in his pocket, so Ruan Zhichun said: "If the little boy doesn't make it clear, then we won't do this business in the future." ”
After that, he turned around and left.
