Chapter 10 Preparing

Du Xiancheng just nodded and poured a glass of wine for Xiao Xiangsheng, "Brother Xiao said so, I feel relieved."

The two stopped talking about the troubles of these mother-in-laws and discussed the business of the two families.

"How did you gain from this trip to Jiangnan?" Xiao Xiangsheng asked.Although he and Du Xiancheng are two different shops, in fact, their businesses are merged together, and they just claim to be two different shops.

Du Xiancheng took out his secret account book and handed it to Xiao Xiangsheng, "Brother, please take a look. I went to three salt wells in the south of the Yangtze River and took a closer look. I think the production there is not much. I didn’t have much contact with them, I just asked our brothers to buy some private salt, and then put it in our shop for consignment. The money earned belongs to the brothers.”

Xiao Xiangsheng nodded slightly, "This is a good move. Those brothers follow us and let them live a good life. We are worthy of their protection back then."

Du Xiancheng recalled the dream he had in the bathtub yesterday, and touched his forehead with great emotion, "It is thanks to the blessings of God that we can come back alive. Now we have earned a lot of money, and we are protected by the official status of Yuanwailang." , It is really a blessing that I never dreamed of."

Xiao Xiangsheng said with a smile: "The days will get better and better in the future, what are you worried about?"

Du Xiancheng also laughed, "Brother has always been more knowledgeable than me! I believe in him. If we work hard for a few more years and save a large amount of property for our grandson, we can stop being a farmer."

Xiao Xiangsheng laughed loudly, and patted Du Xiancheng on the shoulder, "Xiancheng, it is my blessing, Xiao Xiangsheng, to be your brother!"

They had another drink before getting up and going to the upper room to look for Xiao Shiji.

In May, the spring is bright and beautiful.

In the courtyard of the upper house in the backyard of Du's house, there are flowers of various colors blooming in accordance with the occasion.

In the corner of the south wall is a big blue and white vat, which is full of water lilies, which are just about to bloom.

At the gate of the courtyard of the upper house, there is a Xifu crabapple, which is delicate and charming.Because it has just arrived at the flowering period, many flower buds are still in buds, and they are as red as rouge.Some are already in full bloom, and the pink color of the petals changes from deep to light, as bright as a bright glow.

"There are four copies of Begonia, Xifu, Chuisi, Papaya and Tiejing. But ordinary Begonia flowers have no fragrance, only Xifu Begonia has both fragrance and color, and it is the top grade among Begonias." Du Xiancheng saw Xiao Xiangsheng staring at the begonia. Xifu Haitang took another look, and immediately showed off with a smile.

Xiao Xiangsheng pushed him and said with a smile: "I heard this from your old man's family, right?"

Fang Wuniang's mother's family, Fang's family, was actually a small flower maker in Xishi City, and they lived in a flower shop for several generations.

Du Xiancheng puffed out his chest proudly, "That's natural. My father-in-law and brother-in-law are both good at taking care of flowers and plants. The flowers and plants up and down in our house are all taken care of by them. ——Brother Xiao, do you want to... ...Introduce some business to my father-in-law and the others, and give them the flowers and plants in your house to take care of them?"

Xiao Xiangsheng laughed dryly, and said with some embarrassment: "...the affairs of the inner house have always been managed by your sister-in-law." He politely rejected Du Xiancheng's proposal.

Du Xiancheng just mentioned it, but he didn't take Xiao Xiangsheng's refusal to heart, he waved his hand carelessly, "That's fine. I just mentioned it because you, brother Xiao, think differently about this Xifu crabapple."

Xiao Xiangsheng really liked this Xifu crabapple very much. Hearing the words, he said: "Although my family's flowers and plants are tended by someone, I really haven't bloomed such a good Xifu crabapple. Tell your father-in-law if you have time, send me a plant there." " Then he confessed to Du Xiancheng, "...When I go back, I will put Shi Ji alone in his own yard, and I can no longer live with his mother..."

The two of them entered the yard while talking.

The sunshine in May shines on the spacious yard. The walls are covered with verdant creepers. Passiflora-like flowers and grass wall bricks are built in the corner of the wall. Several peonies and roses are planted on the side of the wall, and a large one is planted on the other side. Double Peony.

Under the corridor of the upper room facing the courtyard door, there is also a row of earthen pottery flowerpots, planted with pomegranate trees, passionflowers, and rare brocade, green fragrant balls, Yaohuang, Weizi and other precious flowers blooming vigorously. Peony species.

Xiao Shiji wore a small golden crown with bunched hair and a moon-white robe, and sat recliningly on the railing seat in the corridor, holding a white and fat little baby tightly in his arms. His fiancée Du Hengshuang.

Du Hengshuang stretched out her fat little finger, pointed at the green fragrant ball peony and babbled.

Xiao Shiji patiently explained to her, "That's a peony, a very rare flower. The green incense balls at my house are not as good as yours, and they all died before the middle of May."

Du Hengshuang seemed to understand what he said, babbling even more loudly, the whole chubby body struggled to get out, and the chubby hands tried to destroy the flowers with "hot hands".

The adoptive mother who was looking after it hurriedly said: "Miss, this green fragrant ball was raised by your little uncle with great effort."

Fang Wuniang, who was sitting beside her doing needlework, said with a smile, "It's nothing, it's just a flower, if she wants it, pick it for her."

The adoptive mother obeyed, went to pick a green fragrant ball, and handed it to Du Hengshuang.

Du Hengshuang took it and held it in front of Xiao Shiji, screaming, wanting to give it to him.

"Ah? It turns out that the eldest lady picked the flowers to give to Mr. Xiao!" The little maid standing beside her couldn't help but yelled loudly.

"Ha ha……"

When Du Xiancheng and Xiao Xiangsheng saw this scene, they looked at each other and laughed, feeling extremely happy.

Fang Wuniang also smiled from ear to ear, she looked up and saw Xiao Xiangsheng coming in, she hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Brother Xiao is here to pick up my brother?"

Xiao Shiji was not disturbed by the adult's laughter, and carefully took the green incense ball from Du Hengshuang's chubby hand, and said patiently: "Although this green incense ball is good, it is not very good for you. You are still young, wait for it." When you grow up, my brother will buy you flowers."

Du Hengshuang clapped his little hands happily, and the golden and jade bells on his two fat wrists rang out crisply.

The afternoon sun shone in through the gaps in the corridor, sprinkled on Xiao Shiji and Du Hengshuang, and put a golden border on them.

When Du Xiancheng and Fang Wuniang saw this scene, they both breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and found it interesting, they smiled and said: "In the future, Brother Xiao will bring you more brothers to sit with us."

Xiao Xiangsheng agreed, and said to Xiao Shiji: "It's getting late, we have to go home. I disturbed you, Uncle Du and Aunt Fang, why don't you thank them soon?"

Fang Wuniang took Du Hengshuang from Xiao Shiji's arms.

Du Hengshuang yelled and kicked his legs, refusing to leave Xiao Shiji's embrace.

"You child, show me some restraint!" Fang Wuniang said, and lightly patted Du Hengshuang's chubby leg.

Du Hengshuang burst into tears, very sad.

Du Xiancheng walked up the steps in two steps in three steps, took Du Hengshuang over, and said displeasedly to Fang Wuniang: "It's nothing, why are you beating the child?"

Fang Wuniang was scolded in front of people, her face flushed red, and she muttered: "Where did I hit her? I just patted her twice..."

Xiao Shiji came over, took Fang Wuniang's hand and said, "Aunt Fang, Sister Hengshuang is thin-skinned, you have to be more patient."

As soon as the words fell, Du Hengshuang stopped crying, put his head on Du Xiancheng's shoulder, and hiccupped, as if to prove that Xiao Shiji's words were right.

Fang Wuniang was angry and funny, but she also resolved the predicament. She lowered her head and smiled at Xiao Shiji: "You know all about it? Did Shuang'er tell you about it?"

Obviously Du Hengshuang didn't know how to speak yet.

Xiao Shiji smiled shyly, "I looked into sister Hengshuang's eyes, and I knew what she meant."
