The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 175 Two Extremes (2)
Leng Ping was picking out the fabric, and cast a sideways glance at Hao Ren impatiently, "How do you know it's not suitable for them? Let them try it! Okay, okay, that's the deal, I managed to convince Mrs. Yan Agreed... I want this piece, this piece, yes, I will give you the size, remember to be enough, I live on this street, and if there is an inch missing, I will ask you to pay a foot!"

Leng Ping picked out four pieces of material and asked the boy to pull them.

"Doctor Leng from the Ping An Pharmacy, we all know each other, and I went to your place to grab the medicine. Don't worry, there will definitely be no shortage!" For the risk of being scolded by the shopkeeper, I should spare half an inch, otherwise the feeling of being found by Po Laping would be uncomfortable!

Leng Ping glanced at the ruler, and when she saw that it was enough, she nodded, took out the silver and paid, "The price is what we negotiated, if you can't sell it, you can ask for a higher price, but I can't bear it if you don't have enough materials." of!"

While collecting the money, the young man was accepting Leng Ping's teachings.

Leng Ping kept nagging, and Hao Ren couldn't get in for a moment, so he could only follow along, looking for a chance to have a good talk with Leng Ping.

Turning the corner of the street, I saw a group of people in front of a grocery store, bustling with people, and a crisp voice came from inside, "Tin stove, tin stove, take a look, the latest invention of the tin stove, It is usually used to boil water, saves firewood and labor, and is used for heating in winter, keeping you warm all night, come and see it!"

Surrounded by people, it was very rare, and those who saw it clearly still shouted loudly, "It's really opened, oh, it's so fast!"

"Not only is it fast, but look, it can also keep warm, so you can drink hot water all day!" The voice shouted again, very vigorously.

"My neighbor bought one and said it's easy to use, but let me identify Hao Ji, are you Hao Ji?" Someone asked loudly.

"Uncle, look at the signboard, which one is not Haoji? You can buy it back and use it at ease. I was here all these days ago. If it doesn't work, I will give you a refund!" The voice was crisp and clear, sounding like a young child !
"Okay, come one!" the man shouted.

As the first one opened, more and more people bought stoves, and more and more people piled up.

Leng Ping watched the man come out carrying the tin stove, and couldn't help but her eyes popped. Isn't this the tin stove she asked Blacksmith Li to make?Could it be that someone stole the teacher?Seeing that this stove is so popular, at least a commission must be drawn!

Thinking about it, Leng Ping stuffed something into Hao Ren's hand, and the person squeezed in.

Most of the people who crowded to buy stoves were old people and young men. After all, the folk customs are simple and unsophisticated, and men and women can't get along with each other, let alone crowded with a group of old men.

Leng Ping didn't care, and rushed forward as soon as she rolled up her sleeves, holding a breath in her heart, she must catch this person who stole the teacher, and it's fine if she gives the money, if she refuses to give it...

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Leng Ping yelled, and squeezed in after a while, raised her eyes and saw the person who bought the stove, her eyes stared suddenly—Hao Dan?
At the small chaotic stall by the side of the road, Hao Dan ate the ravioli while purring, put the money on the table, and said joyfully: "Brother, sister Pingzi, look, this is all my money! "

Leng Ping clasped her hands in front of her chest, sat up straight, with a serious expression, "You still have the face to smile? Is your school on holiday? It's still a month before Chinese New Year, and the holiday is so early?"

Hao Dan stopped eating wonton stew, bit his lip, and said in a low voice, "I haven't read books for a long time, it's boring, it's better to make money!"

"Crack!" Leng Ping stretched out her hand, and slapped Hao Dan on the head. Hao Dan was caught off guard, and his face was almost stuck in the wonton bowl.

Hao Ren, who was sitting beside him, was also taken aback, and instinctively touched his head, how painful it must be!
"Sister..." Hao Dan raised her head, her face full of grievances.

"Don't call me sister, I'm not your sister!" Leng Ping said angrily. Before Hao Dan thought that private school was bad, she tried her best to change it for him, but he was fine. He stopped reading and started doing business. !Well, she admits that Hao Dan is a businessman, and there are at least a dozen taels of silver in the money stand, and twenty tin stoves, which are sold out in the blink of an eye. Hao Dan is also popular, and it stands to reason that his stall Gathering so many people and blocking the business of the shop in the back, they would be angry and chase them away, but with his small mouth, he gave some benefits and coaxed the shopkeepers to be very happy. When closing the stall just now, A shopkeeper kindly greeted Hao Dan to go in and drink water!

But, even so, so what? Hao Dan is only eight years old. At such a young age, he is a child laborer in modern times. If he does not study, will he set up a stall and do business all his life?
Hao Dan looked at Hao Ren pitifully.

Hao Ren sighed, "If you have something to say, go back and talk about it!"

Leng Ping turned around and left.

Hao Dan hurriedly cleaned up the wonton stew in the bowl, grabbed the money and followed out, followed Leng Ping carefully, and whispered to Hao Ren, "Brother, sister Pingzi is really angry , what should I do?"

Hao Ren sighed. He understood Leng Ping's intentions for Hao Dan. After all, in this society where everything is inferior and only reading is high, reading is indeed much more noble than doing business, but Hao Dan is not a student.

Hao Ren thought he could understand Leng Ping, but he didn't know that he didn't really understand Leng Ping at all. Leng Ping didn't think that reading was the only way out, but letting an eight-year-old child give up studying to do business, Leng Ping Absolutely will not agree!

Hao Dan drove an ox cart into the city to sell tin buckets, so that Leng Ping didn't need Zhou Hai to deliver them, and went straight home in Hao Dan's ox cart.

Sitting on the bullock cart, watching Hao Dan skillfully driving the bullock cart at a young age, Leng Ping felt a burst of sadness, and simply turned her face away.

Along the way, Hao Dan was also cautious, not daring to show his breath, for fear of angering Leng Ping again.

The three of them came back together, but Hao Shi was overjoyed, and hurried to the dining shed to wash the pots and cook, but they didn't notice Leng Ping's gloomy face.

When Leng Ping entered the house, Hao Dan stood in the yard, hesitated for a moment, said something to Hao Shi, and went out leading the sheep.

Hao Ren was sitting in the dining shed, talking with Hao Shi, looking into the room from time to time.

"I'll get hit by lighting the fire myself. You can just sit and talk with me, so you don't get your clothes dirty!" Hao Shi snatched the fire stick from Hao Ren's hand, took a Maza, and told him to sit at the door. , while pulling the bellows to ignite the fire, he asked in a low voice: "Did you tell her about letting Ping'er come home? What did she say?"

Hao Ren was about to speak when he saw Leng Ping come out of the room in a hurry and shouted, "Mother, I'm going to the school to see the stones!"
