Chapter 41: Sister-in-law Fu takes leave
It rained heavily all night. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
When I woke up in the morning, Ah Fu was cleaning the yard.
The rain in the night knocked down the flowers on the branches. The pink and white petals fell into the stagnant water and gathered together dirty. Even the flowers that were still hanging on the branches hung low, revealing a dejected and embarrassed look.
There was a bang on the door. Ah Fu dragged the broom over and opened the door, it was a short man.
The goldsmith in the goldsmithing shop in Nanshikou. He himself said that his name was Brass Hammer.
The copper hammer came to Niu Hao because Niu Hao told the copper hammer the day before that he would come to get the dagger and go back to repair it.
Seeing the dagger, the copper hammer was stunned for a moment, and blurted out:
"Good guys!"
The dagger of the dwarf winter melon, with a single edge, a short blade, and no handguard, can be called a bull's ear sharp knife.
The dagger is finely crafted and looks exceptionally beautiful.
Niu Hao wanted to repair the dagger, not because he wanted to use it for anything. I just think it's a pity that such a good-looking knife is toothless.
The copper hammer looked at the dagger, and then stretched out his hand to slap Niu Hao.
Niu Hao knew that this time the copper hammer was asking for money. Asked:
"How much?"
The brass hammer said:
"Fifty taels. ”
Niu Hao snatched the dagger, pointed at the bronze hammer and shouted at the gate:
"Let's go!"
Niu Hao doesn't know how to do a copper hammer. What kind of craftsmanship is needed to strike iron in the furnace, and what materials are needed.
But even so, Niu Hao could see that the copper hammer was trapping him.
Fifty taels?
How much does it cost to buy a brand new short knife.
You can't just open your mouth just because you see a jewel on the handle of the dagger, and you think you've met a rich customer.
Niu Hao wanted to take away the copper hammer, but the copper hammer smiled but didn't want to lose the business he had.
Jiang Zangjiao stretched his waist, walked out of his room, saw the appearance of the copper hammer, and said to Niu Hao:
"If he asks for fifty taels, will you give it to him? It's not that I can't take it out. ”
Niu Hao didn't even bother to look back at Jiang Zangjiao.
If you can get it, you will allow an iron striker to ask for a price at me?
This unhealthy trend must be stopped!
The copper hammer smiled at Niu Hao and said:
"Young Master, don't worry. Otherwise, I'll fix the dagger for you first. It's repaired, you see how much my craft is worth, and then reward me. How?"
Sister-in-law Fu came to Niu Hao with a look of something to say.
Niu Hao said at the copper hammer:
"No matter what, I won't spend fifty taels to repair a knife. ”
The copper hammer smiled and said:
"Well said, well said. ”
Then he happily took the dagger and tucked it into his waist. said to Niu Hao again:
"Then I'll go back first. ”
As soon as he turned around, he hummed a little song of "Ding Ding Dong Ding Dong" in his mouth and left.
Niu Hao asked Sister-in-law Fu:
"What's the matter?"
福嫂 says:
"Young Master, I have something to do and want to take a leave of absence from you. ”
But the reason for the leave seemed to make Sister-in-law Fu embarrassed, and she couldn't help but raise her head and glance at Ah Fu.
Ah Fu waved his broom and swept the fallen flowers on the ground with his head down. The pricked ears were listening to Niu Hao and Sister-in-law Fu.
牛昊 says:
"What do you have to do, just say. ”
福嫂 says:
"I discussed with Ah Fu and sent the godly girl away. ”
Glancing at Niu Hao, Sister-in-law Fu continued:
"The pious woman is not subject to discipline. In case someone is injured in this Qingyang City and causes trouble, I'm afraid that it will drag down the eldest young master. ”
There are many rich people in Qingyang City. One who accidentally injures those rich people will be very troublesome.
Even ordinary people, because they are close to the state capital yamen, like to be more serious about everything. At every turn, he dragged him to the yamen to reason.
Far from being like the people in the village, everyone talks about big things and laughs about them.
Niu Hao asked:
"Where do you want to send the godly maiden?"
福嫂 says:
"Ah Fu said that yesterday I heard the guidance of the master, and we want to send the pious girl to Baishangling. ”
The master that Sister-in-law Fu said is naturally Yu Deshui.
Yesterday in the grove, Yu Deshui muttered to himself, saying that it is suitable for a pious woman to go west, there is a big mountain to the west, and there is someone else on the mountain.
Niu Hao didn't understand too much. But apparently, Ah Fu remembers it very well.
Moreover, I was tempted.
Niu Hao nodded.
Since you want to send the pious girl to that, Bai Shangling. Of course I can't stop it.
Sister-in-law Fu bowed to Niu Hao and said:
"Thank you, young master. ”
Jiang Zangjiao came over and said to Niu Hao:
"Otherwise, you can go with Sister-in-law Fu. ”
What is a piece for?
Niu Hao looked at Jiang Zangjiao, and Jiang Zangjiao said:
"You accompanied Sister-in-law Fu and sent the pious girl to Baishangling. You also go out for a walk and take a walk. ”
If you want to go out for a walk, Niu Hao has no opinion.
But Niu Hao had a feeling that Jiang Zangjiao took the opportunity of Sister-in-law Fu to send the pious girl to Baishangling to take him away and leave Qingyang City.
Is that so?
Niu Hao looked at Jiang Zangjiao, and Jiang Zangjiao said again:
"The other day you said you wanted to go to the countryside and farm. I also think that you are idle at home all day, and I am afraid that you will be bored and panicked, so I came up with this idea. If you don't like it, you can not go. ”
It seems that I am thinking too much.
"I'll go. ”
Niu Hao agreed, and then asked:
"How far is Qingyang City from Baishangling?"
Jiang Zangjiao asked Sister-in-law Fu:
"Back and forth, it's going to take about ten days, right?"
Niu Hao turned his head to look at Ah Fu.
With Ah Fu helping to take care of the portal, there is nothing to worry about.
Moreover, in this house, it seems that Niu Hao has no ability.
牛昊 says:
"Then I'll go pack my baggage. ”
Jiang Zangjiao said to Sister-in-law Fu:
"You go and get ready, too. ”
With an uncertain tone, Ah Fu asked Jiang Zangjiao in a low voice:
"In this way, will it work?"
Jiang Zangjiao silently looked at Niu Hao's back, turned around and went back to his room.
When Niu Hao left Qiantou Village, he was still called Niu Er. Penniless, there are only a few corn noodle nests in the baggage.
At that time, Niu Er was poor.
It's different now.
Niu Er became Niu Hao and became the young master Niu in Qingyang City. Although I dare not say how big a family is, it is no longer a poor and white cattle herder.
Therefore, Niu Hao's burden is no longer a corn noodle nest, but also money.
Hungry at any time on the road, buy food at any time.
The heavy rain overnight knocked down countless flowers in Qingyang City. It wasn't until I got out of town that I realized that the situation outside was even worse.
Rainwater flooded everywhere, flooding vast swaths of farmland. All the grains that had already set their ears were soaked in knee-high floodwaters.
In the fields, some farmers looked anxious, and the ants on the hot pot wanted to dredge and drain the water.
But there was a flood everywhere, and there was no other way than to wait for the water to recede on its own.
The ox has grown the land and knows how to work in the field. Knowing that being soaked in such a big flood, this crop will definitely reduce the yield. If you barely collect it, whether you can pay the rent or not depends on your luck.
To the west of Qingyang City, there are all fields of Pingchuan.
