Chapter 717 Winter Clothes

Chu Huan glanced over there, laughed dumbly, and pulled a curtain over there, but of course Chu Huan knew what was behind it. He came back from Xiliang, but he came back with a full reward, except for the nobles of Xiliang when they got married. He returned to Yunshan directly from Tongzhou with the gifts from the officials, and the property he got at Puzhao Temple, but the things were brought back to the capital by Lang Wazi and others, and they were put here after that.

Bai Xiazi pointed like this, and Chu Huan suddenly remembered that there are countless treasures in this room, no wonder Bai Xiazi dared not sleep with his eyes closed, and put such a large pile of treasures in this room. If you sleep next to it, you have to sleep with your eyes open anyway.

Chu Huan laughed dumbfounded, and said, "Are you still afraid that someone will steal it?"

The blind man smiled wryly, "My lord put these things here, but one thing is missing, and that is also my negligence."

"Hahaha...!" Chu Huan laughed loudly and said, "Brother Bai, if it were me, I might even guard myself...!"

Bai Blind's expression suddenly became serious, and he said: "My lord, since I followed you, you have treated me like a brother and trusted me a lot. Although Bai Blind was born in the market, he also knows a word for righteousness. Bai Blind likes money. But if we want money, we can get it in a proper way, my lord trusts the blind man, even if I lose my life, I can't be sorry to my lord."

Hearing his sincerity, Chu Huan knew that although this guy came from a local ruffian, he was indeed a man of loyalty. He reached out and patted the blind man's arm, and said, "Brother Bai, I made a slip of the tongue, so don't blame me!"

The blind man smiled heartily, then frowned, and said in a low voice: "Sir, these things have been kept here, after all, it is not a solution, should we find a better place to store them?"

Chu Huan leaned on the chair, pondered for a while, and finally said after a long time, "Heal your injury well, I'll think about it carefully."

Chu Huan left Bai Xiazi and went straight to the study. Before he could sit down, he heard Su Niang's voice from outside the door, "Erlang, are you here?"

Seeing Su Niang came back, Chu Huan was relieved, agreed, and saw Su Niang coming in gracefully. At first sight, Chu Huan felt a little strange, and always felt that something was wrong, but saw Su Niang walking over with a smile, Said: "Hungry? I have sent someone to prepare the meal, it will be ready soon...!"

Chu Huan nodded. It was not easy for him to stare at Su Niang. He felt that Su Niang was a bit weird at the previous glance, but he didn't see it clearly. He felt Su Niang standing beside him, so he couldn't help turning his head to look. Next, I found that Su Niang's pretty face was delicate and beautiful, and I didn't notice much on weekdays. At this moment, I found that Su Niang's appearance was also very beautiful. I didn't dare to look at it, so I cast my eyes on the book again, and asked: "I came back late today and went to a lot of places?"

Su Niang happily sat down on a chair beside her, and said: "Yes, Mrs. Xue is really familiar with the capital city. She took me to many places, and even went to Taoist temples, and went to several restaurants to eat. I was so stuffed. It's...!"

Hearing her voice, Chu Huan was delighted. He must have been very happy shopping until today, and said with a smile, "Since I like it, I'll go out for more shopping in the future. It's not good to stay in the house all day." Finally, he couldn't help turning his head to look again He took a look at Su Niang, under the lights, Su Niang looked like a flower, after this glance, he finally realized what was weird, but it was Su Niang who made a new bun.

Su Niang's bun was very ordinary before, but now it is obviously a new bun. Although I don't know the name of this bun, but it is quite gorgeous. Against the backdrop of this bun, Su Niang seems to suddenly look extravagant Quite a few, and it made her face even more beautiful. She couldn't help but said, "This...is this your new hair bun?"

Su Niang was still worried that Chu Huan would not find out. Seeing Chu Huan's question, she immediately smiled and asked, "Yes, Erlang, do you think it looks good?" She was obviously very satisfied with her hairstyle, and she raised her hand, gently Tidy up lightly, with a smile on her face, and her face is as delicate as a flower.

Chu Huan knows that in front of women, one should never say "no" lightly, even if Su Niang's hairdo is not good-looking, Chu Huan is not easy to say "no", let alone speaking from the heart, Su Niang's hairstyle Although it seemed uncomfortable for a while, it was indeed very suitable for Su Niang, and instantly doubled Su Niang's beauty.

"It looks good." Chu Huan could only answer honestly, but he couldn't help thinking that if Su Niang kept combing her hair like this in the future, it would be a great beauty in the mansion.

When Su Niang heard what Chu Huan said, she beamed with joy, her heart was full of joy, and the one who really took the time to go out today was doing such a bun. At this time, she heard Chu Huan's praise, although it was only the word "good-looking", But it has already made Su Niang feel elated.

The two didn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. Seeing that Chu Huan was still looking at her, Su Niang's face became hot, and she lowered her head. At that moment, Sun Zikong's voice was heard from outside: "Master, madam, Mr. Du said he has something to discuss with you!"

Chu Huan said "Oh", and didn't know what Du Fugong wanted to do, but he thought in his heart that Du Fugong was really a big fan, looking for something to do with himself, but still let someone pass the message.

He knew that guy had a weird personality. Ever since he was asked to take care of the accounts, the old guy huddled in the yard by himself. He couldn't see anyone or communicate with others all day long. inside.

Chu Huan heard people say that people with weird temperaments have some skills, but I don't know if this Mr. Du really has skills?

The two came to Du Fugong's yard, it was very quiet, the house was lit with a single lamp, heard footsteps, Du Fugong came out from the house, bowed his hands to Chu Huan, and laughed casually.

After Chu Huan sat down, he smiled and said, "Sir, are you looking for me?"

Du Fugong nodded and said: "The main thing is to discuss something with Madam. I heard that your lord is also in the mansion, so please come here with me."

Chu Huan smiled, and motioned Du Fugong to sit down and talk, but Du Fugong was really impolite. He sat down opposite Chu Huan, turned to Su Niang, and said, "Ma'am, Du made up his mind, it's almost winter, I don't know if Madam is ready Prepare winter clothes for the servants in the mansion?"

Su Niang was startled, a little at a loss, she looked at Chu Huan, Chu Huan just smiled and nodded, pouted at Du Fu Gong, signaling Su Niang to negotiate with Du Fu Gong.

Su Niang sat down and asked cautiously: "Du...Mr. Du, what winter clothes are you talking about?"

"Winter in the capital will be very cold." Du Fu said solemnly: "It's already late autumn, and the clothes on the servants can still make do, but once winter comes, the clothes can't hold on, so Du wants to ask Madam, Is Madam going to prepare warm winter clothes for the servants in the mansion?"

Su Niang thought for a while, and finally said: "If necessary, of course we must prepare."

Du Fu stroked his beard and said: "Naturally it is necessary. Ma'am, I have done some calculations. There are 22 people in the mansion, including Mrs. and Mrs. Du. If one person buys two sets of winter clothes, it will be 44 sets Clothes, according to the price in the capital, should be comfortable and warm to wear, and a set of clothes is about two taels of silver, which is nearly a hundred taels of silver."

Su Niang was startled, opened her mouth, but said nothing.

Seeing it, Chu Huan knew that Su Niang felt sorry for Yinzi, so she was amused and didn't say a word, waiting for Su Niang to deal with the matter. In the future, there will be many affairs in the mansion, and Element Niang will take care of it. Such trivial matters as buying clothes are just It is natural to let Su Niang start from here.

Seeing that Su Niang was silent, Du Fugong couldn't help asking: "Ma'am, what do you mean?"

Su Niang said after a while: "Want... want two taels of silver? Then... what kind of clothes are those?"

She used to live in Liujia Village, and after a year, she only spent a few taels of silver. Now she was a little surprised to hear that a set of winter clothes cost two taels of silver.

Du Fu said fairly: "For ordinary winter clothes, perhaps one tael of silver is enough, but the adults are high-ranking officials at any rate, and the treatment of servants in the mansion is always better than ordinary people. Two taels of silver for a set of winter clothes is not expensive."

Chu Huan stretched out a finger and scratched the corner of his cheek, thinking that a high-ranking court official is a high-ranking court official, so why do you have to add "good or bad" in front of it? This old prince has a weird temper. The old man did not have much awe.

Su Niang's heart hurts, but since Du Fugong proposed to buy winter clothes for the servants in the mansion, she can't refuse, and she also understands in her heart that the weather is getting colder, and the servants in the mansion really don't have winter clothes. The current clothes are hard to resist. The winter clothes are always on duty, but when I think of a winter dress that costs two taels of silver, I still feel a little bit reluctant. After hesitating for a while, I finally asked: "Mr. Can each... each have a set?"

But she was thinking in her heart that a set of clothes cost two taels of silver, if each person had a set, it would save four to fifty taels of silver, and four to fifty taels of silver was a huge sum for Su Niang.

Du Fu was expressionless, and said: "Madam, if you think so, then just buy one set for each person... It's just a winter, there is no change of clothes, there must be some dust, if the lord has guests, look at the clothes in the lord's house." The servants are all sloppy, I am afraid it will affect the reputation of the adults."

Su Niang saves money for Chu Huan. At this time, Du Fugong said that if he saves money, it may have an impact on Chu Huan’s reputation. She suddenly became nervous and asked: "Really...it will really affect Erlang. ...No, yes, will it affect the reputation of the master?"

Du Fugong glanced at Chu Huan and said, "That's what Du thinks. I don't know what it is. If no one from the house comes to visit, it shouldn't have any effect."

Chu Huan secretly laughed, the old guy was understating it, but he was obviously fighting for the interests of the servants in the mansion.

On weekdays, this old guy huddled in the yard like a ghost, and didn't deal with other people. Everyone in the mansion only knew that there was an accounting room, and even several people had never seen what this accounting room looked like. No one has much friendship, but at this time, this old guy suddenly stood up to fight for the treatment of his subordinates, but Chu Huan felt a great affection for this old guy in his heart. It seems that this mere literati still has some chivalry in his heart heart.

However, seeing that he was willing to endure humiliation for the sake of his best friend Ouyang Zhi, even at the expense of being convicted to collect the corpses for Ouyang's family, his chivalrous heart is indeed not lacking.

Su Niang pondered for a moment, glanced at Chu Huan, and thought about it again. She seemed to be fighting for distance in her heart, and finally said to Chu Huan: "Second...Master, just buy two sets of winter clothes for each person, do you think it's okay? "

Chu Huan smiled, nodded and said, "It's up to you. In addition to winter clothes, each person buys two pairs of cotton shoes. In addition, he sent someone to buy a batch of dry charcoal. In winter, the house is also cold. Everyone has extra charcoal, and when winter comes, charcoal is produced in the places where people sleep, so that everyone can spend the winter warmly."

Du Fugong immediately showed surprise, and Su Niang also said in surprise: "Do you still want to buy cotton shoes and charcoal?"

Chu Huan said with a smile: "The body is warm, how can we not let it warm up the feet?" Looking at Du Fugong's slightly surprised face, he said with a smile: "Mr. Du, could it be that you disagree?"

Du Fugong came back to his senses, stroked his beard and said: "Your Excellency has said so, how can Du Mou disagree?"

Su Niang knew that it must cost some money again, and she was really reluctant to part with it, but since Chu Huan spoke, she would naturally not object, but speaking of it, it was all for servants, Su Niang was a poor person Born, she is very familiar with the situation of the poor, thinking that although she spent a lot of money, it can make everyone spend a warm winter. If it's just to organize a banquet, then she will object in every case.

Chu Huan smiled and asked Su Niang, "Su Niang, what do you think?"

Su Niang nodded hurriedly, and then Chu Huan asked: "Mr. Du, is there anything else?"

Du Fugong shook his head and said: "There is nothing else. Since your lord and madam have settled on this matter, I will ask madam to send you some money to buy these things later."

Chu Huan sighed, and said: "Mr. Du called me here just for these things. Mr. Du is fine, but I am busy!"

Du Fu was taken aback, not understanding the meaning of Chu Huan's words for a moment.

Chu Huan pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Mr. Du, there are more than 20 people in the mansion, no matter how much, no matter how little, my monthly salary is actually not much, and I rely on my salary to support a large family. After all, it's still a bit difficult...!"

Du Fu frowned, not understanding why Chu Huan suddenly seemed to be crying poor after being so generous.

Seeing Mr. Du Fu's expression, Chu Huan smiled and said, "Mr. Du, don't misunderstand. Mr. Chu came to the capital not long ago, and he came from a poor background, so he can't compare with those rich and powerful people. They all have some properties under them, enough to support their expenses...!" After a pause, he finally asked, "Actually, I want to ask you, sir, can we do some business?"

Chu Huan remembered that in ancient times, there were four classes of scholars, farmers, businessmen and commerce. Although the Great Qin Dynasty was not any dynasty in his memory, there was a difference in respect and inferiority. In his own capacity, is it possible to operate some stores in the capital?

Du Fugong immediately understood what Chu Huan meant, and frowned, "How many stores do you want to run in the capital?"

Chu Huan nodded and said with a smile: "Exactly. In this way, if you earn money, the life of the whole family will be much better."
