MTL - The Landlord And His Wife-Chapter 40 : small surprise

Liu Changgeng hurriedly called Liushu to send her grandma, Mrs. He watched Liu Gao from the window as he came out of the courtyard, and after Liushu pushed up with her buttocks, she closed the window and turned around to ask Liu Changgeng : "Isn't tomorrow a small year? Why did you come to discuss the wedding date when it was still a small year?"

Liu Changgeng also shook his head: "Who knows... The Yuan family has no elders, so I don't understand some things."

He nodded in agreement, and sighed for a while that Liu Hong was lucky. When he saw Liu Xuer going to the gate of the courtyard and staring at the willow tree, when would he come back, he said to Liu Changgeng: "If our Xuer grows When I grow up, I can marry a good family like her sister-in-law, and I will be satisfied."

Liu Changgeng said: "Xu'er is very smart, the people you find in the future will definitely be the same, you can rest assured."

He also sighed that Liu Gao had just read the dowry list: "The Yuan family gave Liu Hong 22 betrothal gifts! I heard that there are only two or three pairs of gold bracelets! Oh, but It's incredible, our parents..." After saying this, he smiled and didn't say any more.

Liu Changgeng knew what she wanted to say, being a husband and wife for almost ten years, and also knowing that she was completely outspoken, without any bad intentions, nodded and said: "The dowry is quite a lot, but father He Niang's dowry for Liu Hong must be similar to this."

He nodded: "That's right." Thinking of Liu Gao's appearance just now, he sneered and said, "Mother is usually a well-known and stable chief. What's more, she doesn't have the energy to bring anything to her eyes, I didn't expect to be so happy today."

Liu Changgeng smiled: "My daughter is looking for a good kiss, even if my mother is steady, she can't hold it, don't you? I don't usually talk so much."

He said angrily, "Wow! Do you think I talk too much?" He took the kang broom and threw it away. Who would have thought it? He hit Liu Changgeng, but he hit Liu Sen who was sleeping.

Liu Changgeng and Mrs He stared at Liu Sen in silence for a while, fearing to wake him up. Fortunately, Liu Sen slept well and didn't feel anything, just smacking his lips, probably in a dream Had the braised pork that day.

Liu Changgeng looked at He Shi and smiled, and He Shi rolled his eyes at him.

I turned the things I brought out of the cupboard, made porridge and wowo in the morning, and cooked egg custard for Liu Sen.

Beat two eggs in a bowl, pour water, stir well, and steam them together with Wo Wo. The corn paste soaked last night was poured into the boiling water, and after stirring for a while, the gruel was dispersed, and the smell of corn wafted out.

The steamed egg custard and the side of the wok also began to emit steam, so she separated the burning wood in the stove, and plucked the ash on the side to lower the fire.

The willow tree who was carrying water in the courtyard came in with a strange face: "Xu'er, Shicheng is looking for you."

Liu Xuer was slightly surprised when she heard this: "What? What's the matter so early?" Then she hurried out, murmuring in her heart, won't something happen again? !

Liu Lin was standing at the gate of the courtyard that Shi Cheng had opened, and the two were laughing and talking at the gate.

Shi Cheng wore a long silk cotton gown with embroidered flowers and a cotton hat on his head, smiling. At this time, the genius was slightly bright, and in the early morning, in the cold weather, people were not very energetic, but his smile was so conspicuous and abrupt. When Liu Xuer approached him, she suddenly had a very strange feeling, as if she was back many years ago, when he was waiting for him at the school gate every weekend morning.

Walking over, Shi Cheng gave her a big smile and said, "Xu'er, I have something good to tell you."

Liu Xuer still couldn't react, and blinked at him.

Shi Cheng smiled and waved his right hand in front of her: "Why? Haven't woken up yet?"

On the contrary, Liu Lin asked anxiously: "What good thing? What good things can happen in the morning?"

Liu Xuer was finally brought back to her eyes by his waving hand, she shook her head quickly and asked, "Yeah, what can be good in the morning?"

Shicheng took out a handkerchief from his arms, the handkerchief was wrapped in something, and waved at her proudly: "Victory in the first battle! You can continue to ponder and implement what you think!"

Liu Shu and Liu Lin didn’t understand what Liu Shu said, but Liu Xu’er vaguely thought about it, but she had to endure the surprise, looking at the handkerchief in his hand: “Could it be… Son sold?"

Shi Cheng smiled and nodded, and put the handkerchief in her hand: "Every three taels, a total of nine taels!"

The willow tree and the willow forest were surprised! Liu Lin even called out, "What?!" After Liu Xu'er took the handkerchief and opened it, she saw five pieces of silver in white flowers! One of the pieces was half smaller than the other, and Liu Lin was so frightened that he jumped in place!

"This...is this true?" Liu Xuer's voice trembled a little. After all, this was something she had been thinking about for several years, and she dreamed of earning money with her own abilities. Have a better day.

Shicheng smiled and nodded.

And Liu Lin quickly took the handkerchief in Liu Xuer's hand, together with the silver, and flew into the main room, shouting: "Dad! Mother! You guys get up! Xu'er Made money, a full nine taels of silver!"

Liu Xu'er was calm, and she couldn't help but wonder again. She saw it with her own eyes that day, and the second young lady clearly disliked this hand covering her child, so how could she buy it? Staring at Shicheng and asking, "Don't lie to me, how can you sell it?"

The willow tree was also startled at first, listening to Liu Xuer asking like that: "Yeah Shicheng, we all saw that day, the rich lady didn't want it..."

Shi Cheng smiled: "If she doesn't want anyone else, she doesn't want it? Do you remember the shopkeeper once said that the grandmothers and wives of the big households in the county have some who like to go out and some who don't like to go out. They don't like to go out. Those who go out are usually new products from the shop. The shopkeeper chooses some to send according to the preferences of the grandmother and wife. If he likes it, he will keep it, and if he doesn’t like it, he will send it back? A few days ago, the shopkeeper gave it to the two The new goods were delivered, and they all covered their children with their hands. There was a young grandmother who just gave birth to a child, and she liked it at a glance. I wanted to buy only the two small ones, but the big ones looked good, so I bought them and kept them. I'll buy it all when I bring my child next year."

He smiled and said, "The money is always delivered in real quantities, but it may not be real? Could it be that I gave it to you? I haven't had the guts to steal the money from my family..."

Liu Xuer sounded like it was real, but the excitement had just passed, and I was just very happy at the moment, and my mood was soaring immediately, and my mind turned seven in an instant The eight thoughts are all about my own plan.

Willow looked at Shicheng and said, "You didn't really steal the money from the family, did you?"

Shi Cheng sneered: "I don't dare! Besides, my father also knows about this. Yesterday, the shopkeeper specially sent someone to send the money back, and my father knew it... By the way, Xuer, I I took the opportunity to tell my dad about it, but my dad thought it over carefully, he thought it was okay, he said it shouldn’t be too big to start with, a small shop is fine, it’s just for me to train me, just so you can prepare more Handmade, Dad said, as long as there are good ones from the villagers, we will accept them."

The willow tree said strangely: "What?"

Liu Xuer exclaimed in surprise: "Really?!"

The willow forest in the house is also calling: "It's true! It was sent by Shicheng, and he is still at the door! If you don't believe me, open the window and take a look!"

The sound was so loud that it finally woke Liu Sen, Liu Sen's crying began to grow louder. In the morning's farmyard, four or five voices rang out, and it became lively.

The window was opened, and He's voice was a little confused: "Shicheng is here? Come in, Xuer... What's going on?"

Shi Cheng hurriedly called: "No Second Aunt! I'll hurry back!" Then he whispered to Liu Xuer: "I'm leaving! I waited until this morning, just wanted to call you over. Xiao Nian is happy and happy!" He turned around and ran out.

Willow looked at the back of his running away in amazement.

Liu Xuer suddenly thought of something, shouted and chased out: "Hey, wait a minute..." After chasing outside, Shicheng had already stopped, turned and waited for her.

"What else? You still don't believe it?" Shicheng asked with a smile.

Liu Xuer hurriedly asked: "The silver is delivered to your house, your father knows that we use the shop to sell things? Your father... What did you say? Will you be angry? And that new shop You have to tell me about it in detail! Do you mean I can rent a counter in your shop?"

Shi Cheng said: "My father is not angry, I know that the doctor in the county town also bought your hand cover, but he praised you for your ability, Xiaoya's mind is very flexible!" He smiled and learned After saying a word, he added: "Don't worry, my father is a businessman, so he won't be so petty and care about trivial matters. Instead, he thinks that you are smart, so he naturally likes it. As for the new shop, it has been decided. Open it, what about you, or rent a counter, or directly sell the finished product to us... It means that we have accepted your handicraft, and it has become our goods. We are selling it, so you don't have to worry about it. "

Liu Xuer always felt that something was not right, but it happened so suddenly, but she couldn't remember what was wrong.

Shi Cheng thought of it, and hurriedly said in a low voice: "This shop is going to be a small one, but it can't be said that it belongs to my family. On the surface, I just want to be a buddy. In a year or two, that prefect’s term expires and he’s gone.”

Liu Xuer remembered when he said it! I just felt that this was wrong and asked, "But the shop accepts my things, how can I tell my family?"

"That shop is nominally opened by a distant relative of my mother. I work there as a clerk, and your hands are covered and sold smoothly. Can't these..."

Liu Xu'er nodded again and again: "Understood, understand... I have too many things to think about, just now my mind suddenly stopped." She muttered, and told him again: "You go, come on Poe be careful!"

Shicheng agreed and waved her away.
