Chapter 105
We arrived at Zhuji mutton soup in a few steps, and entered the room inside the shop. In addition to the mutton soup, we ordered mutton, mutton liver, mutton face, mutton hooves, etc. Then we asked shopkeeper Fu to bring two jars of wine, and steamed several drawers of mutton and siu mai. Sit around and celebrate the success of the two transactions.Ning Wan couldn't sit with everyone, so she picked up a seat at the stall outside the shop and ordered a drawer of siu mai and a bowl of mutton soup.

While eating, she suddenly heard someone call her, "Is it Miss Ning?" She looked up and saw that it was Xiao Liu from Carpenter Wang's house, who was smiling at her with her mouth wide open. It's been a year since I saw him, so he smiled and stood up, "How's Brother Xiaoliu?"

"I'm fine!" Xiao Liu was not at all like Carpenter Wang, who was cautious and cautious. He was very familiar with him, so he sat down opposite him and said, "I just went to the town to deliver a piece of furniture to my father."

Ning Wan also didn't see him, so she asked, "Why are you still doing errands?" When she was still in Sanjia Village, Xiao Liu was often scolded by Carpenter Wang because of poor work, and listened to by his brother Xiao Liu. Yang followed Wang Carpenter for two years and left as a teacher. Xiao Liu failed after three years of study, and now after another year, he is still doing odd jobs.

Xiao Liu was also embarrassed, "I can't help if the ancestor doesn't reward this bowl of rice!" There are ancestors in every industry, and the ancestor of carpenters is naturally the famous Lu Ban.If you can't make it, say it's the patriarch who didn't reward you with food.

Sure enough, people have their own strengths and weaknesses, so Ning Wan stopped exposing his weaknesses and pointed to the mutton soup and said, "I'll give you a bowl of mutton soup, drink it to warm your body."

Xiao Liu smiled and said to shopkeeper Fu: "Let's have another bowl of mutton soup, and I'll meet you later."

When the mutton soup came, Ning Wan smiled and pointed to shopkeeper Fu and pointed to the inside of the room, "It's all in one place." Shopkeeper Fu understood, nodded, and refused to accept Xiaoliu's money no matter what.

Xiao Liu is a clever person, she immediately came to her senses, "Your father is in there?" Ning Wan, a girl, could come to the town alone, and how could she drink mutton soup here alone, so she naturally came here with her father.He smiled embarrassedly and said, "I don't want to let you invite a guest."

Ning Wan remembered that when she was still at her home, Xiao Liu hurried over thinking she was going to hang herself. At that time, to comfort herself, he repeatedly said that she could marry her, so she also laughed, "What is a bowl of mutton soup!"

Xiao Liu probably also remembered that embarrassing incident, so she quickly lowered her head to drink the mutton soup, drank half a bowl in one go, suddenly remembered something, raised her head and asked, "Is the daughter-in-law married by the fifth son of the shopkeeper Liu's family really your own sister?"

"Yes!" Ning Wan replied a little strangely, Xiao Liu was from the town, and she went to her own house to make furniture, so she should have known that Ning Qing was her second sister.

"I always don't believe it," Xiao Liu put down the soup bowl and said, "You sisters really don't look alike."

In fact, the three sisters of the Ning family still look alike from the outside, but Xiaoliu Ruru said that Ning Wan has some sense, what he said may be that he is not a good person.In her dream, when she came to Mayi Town, she had heard that Ning Qing's reputation was not very good. She had quarreled with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law over the family property, and it was said that her failure to find a husband was also related to her. Everyone was afraid that she would also become a troublemaker. A restless shrew.

It's just that Ning Wan didn't know that when Xiao Liu came back from Sanjia Village, she wanted to go to Ning's family to propose marriage, but was rejected by her parents. It really was because she didn't want another person like Liu Wulang's daughter-in-law in the family.Xiao Liu also had trouble before, but what can he do if the whole family opposes him, even the matchmaker has no one to invite him for him, so she is actually unwilling to ask again now, if Ning Wan feels uncomfortable, she will ask again: " What are you and your father doing in Mayi Town?"

"Our family bought the Lin family's shop, and we plan to come to do business next year. In the next half a day, we will go to your house to buy furniture." Ning Wan smiled and said: "In the future, you can come over to buy mountain goods from your family, and I will give you the lowest price. .”

Xiao Liu hurriedly nodded, "When your shop opens, I'll take my mother there."

Just as he was talking, he didn't want another person to come over, so he said to Ning Wan, "Sister Wan, why are you here by yourself?"

When Ning Wan saw that it was Hu Dunru, he was still wearing a green cloth gown and a green turban, with a big burden on his back and a cloth bag in his hand. It looked like there was a large stack of books inside, and his face was bigger than usual. He was even more serious, and his tone was a bit unkind, so he wondered why he was upset, so he could only reply: "My father and I came to buy a shop, and now we are eating wine in it, I am waiting for him here, and I met Brother Xiaoliu again, talking together."

Hu Dunru said: "The town is no better than the village. There are many bad people. You should be more careful."

Ning Wan suddenly realized that Hu Dunru didn't know Xiao Liu, worried that she would be deceived, so she smiled and said, "Brother, Xiao Liu belongs to Carpenter Wang's family. He has been to our house to beat furniture, so he is not a bad person." Introduced: "He is Mr. Xu's student and the son of my godmother."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Liu curled her lips, and her eyes swept over Hu Dunru, "He doesn't recognize me, but I recognize him, a man who doesn't believe what he says." Then he said seriously to Ning Wan: "Remember, every time more dogs are slaughtered in righteousness, The most heartless scholar!"

Ning Wan had heard this before, and it wasn't unreasonable, but Hu Dunru was really not that kind of person, so he quickly stopped Xiao Liu, "Don't talk nonsense, my third brother is the most sincere and trustworthy person."

How could Xiaoliu believe that he knew why Hu Ning and his family recognized their relatives back then, so he sneered and said to Ning Wan: "When you move to Mayi Town and come to the theater troupe again, I will take you to the theater. There is a It's called "The Case of Guimei" is very exciting, and it's about a heartless scholar who wants to kill his wife and children in order to become a son-in-law!" As he spoke, he glanced at Hu Dunru and rubbed his hands on the back of his neck, "That's it, with a click, Mr. Bao Cut off the head!"

Ning Wan had no choice but to drive him away, "If you don't go home, your father and mother may be in a hurry."

Xiao Liu raised her head and drank the remaining half bowl of mutton soup, "I'm going home first." After walking a few steps, she turned around and said, "I will treat you next time!"

Ning Wan nodded, "Okay, I'll invite you next time." Seeing Xiao Liu walking towards Hu Dunru, he said, "Don't be angry, he is just a heartless person."

It was the first time in Hu Dunru's life that someone said that, how could he not be angry?But he also understood that Xiao Liu must have heard something when he was doing carpentry work in Sanjia Village, and his own affairs were really not authentic, so he couldn't refute even a word, but his face darkened even more, " He deserved to scold me."

Ning Wan had no choice but to persuade him, "Actually, he doesn't know the truth, he must have heard a sentence or two, and there is some misunderstanding."

"You don't need to comfort me anymore, I know my fault." Hu Dunru's expression was very heavy, obviously very sad, but he said to Ning Wan: "I want to tell you that you are too old to sit at the same table with men .”

In the daily life of Sanjia Village, it is not a family, and men and women are not good at eating at the same table.The reason why she is here is because the people my father invites to dinner are all men, so she avoids it.

But now Hu Dunru's reminder made Ning Wan laugh and cry.Although she and Xiao Liu are sitting at the same table, this table is not an ordinary table used at home, but a long and large table with many stools placed on both sides. They are all sitting on both sides of this big case, they are not the usual co-chairs at all!Just before Xiao Liu came, there was someone drinking mutton soup on the other side of the case, and the place where Xiao Liu sat was not close to her!
Hu Dunru saw the disapproval in Ning Wan's eyes, and quickly said: "There are many people in the town who don't read and don't know how to be polite. We don't want to be like them. No matter what the situation is, we should be cautious and respectful." What you do.' That is to say, when you are alone and no one is paying attention, you should be careful in your behavior, let alone when you are on the street at this time?"

It turned out that Hu Dunru knew that they were under the eyes of everyone on the street!Talking about himself in front of so many people, has he ever thought about how he feels?If it was an ordinary little girl, she would have been trained to cry by him.

Of course, if it was someone else, Ning Wan had refuted it a few words earlier, but now it was Hu Dunru whom she respected, so Ning Wan explained: "There are only two cases here. If I don't sit here, there will be no place to sit?" There are also two or three men in another case.

Hu Dunru asked: "Is it important to sit or observe etiquette?"

Although this problem is not comparable to "starving to death is a minor issue, but injustice is a major issue." But it is actually a truth.Ning Wan is polite, but she never thinks starving to death is a small matter.The person who said that must not be really starving to death, otherwise he would never have said it.

Ning Wan once experienced that when her father was ill and had no money to see her, and the life of the father and daughter was extremely poor, she did not choose to starve to death, but came up with other ways.Now she came out of Sanjia Village early in the morning, walked the mountain road, looked at houses in the town, and negotiated prices with the Lin family. She was very tired. If she didn't sit here, where should she stand?She can't embarrass herself by sticking to those vain rituals.

Just like the choice I made back then, it was definitely not the right path, but it was not an evil path either. It is enough for a person to be worthy of his conscience at any time.

At this time, Ning Wan felt a sense of joy again!
Fortunately, fortunately, I am not engaged to Hu Dunru, he is too pedantic and rigid!And he also has a habit of being stricter with himself and his family than others.It is precisely because he is married to his family that he will take care of it, so how strict will his wife be in the future?
So under Hu Dunru's serious gaze, Ning Wan snorted disdainfully in her heart, and said casually: "Okay, I'll pay more attention later." But she still sat where she was, without moving a bit.

Hu Dunru wanted to say more, several people who were eating together came out of the mutton soup shop, and when he saw Mr. Xu, Li Chang, Ning Liang and others, he hurried forward to salute, and Ning Wan also stood up.

When Mr. Xu saw his beloved student, he smiled and asked, "Didn't you let you go home on vacation? Why are you here?"

Hu Dunru saluted respectfully and said: "The student packed his books and luggage and was about to go home. When he met my mother's goddaughter on the way, he stopped to talk." He pointed to Ning Wan.

Ning Liang also smiled and said, "This is the youngest daughter of my family."

Mr. Xu actually didn't remember Ning Wan, so he just nodded casually, but asked with a smile: "You two villages turned war into jade silk, and your two families got married again?"

Ning Liang nodded, "Exactly."

How could Mr. Xu know that the two families became married or because he talked about their marriage for the students, only because they want to understand the enmity, so he nodded and praised: "Great kindness!"

Ning Liang was not doing well, but Hu Dunru had just been insulted by Xiao Liu, and his heart was sick, and now his face was flushed red after hearing this praise, but he couldn't explain it to his husband——At the beginning, he wanted to No matter how he resigned the relatives of the Gu family, so as not to leave a stain that could not be washed away for a lifetime, but at that time, there were many things to take into account, and now he can't say anything more, he can only bear it in his heart.

Seeing that Mr. Xu was in a good mood, Ning Wan came forward with a smile and said, "Mr., our family is going to open a shop after the Chinese New Year. Can I ask Mr. Xu to write a plaque for us?"

Mr. Xu had just had a drink, and saw that there were already married couples in the two century-old feuds he had adjusted, and he had a good impression of Ning Liang, who had lost his family but still kept silent, so he went Fu Xu agreed, "Okay! You can come to my house to get it after the fifteenth day!"

Ning Liang and Ning Wan were even more delighted. Mr. Xu not only agreed to write a plaque for them, he even agreed to give them their names. This is something that many people can't ask for!

The Ning family and the Lin family had agreed on a time to hand over the house, so they said a few more farewell words and then parted ways.Ning Liang took his daughter with him, and Hu Dunru went on the same journey.

The things that Hu Dunru brought were taken over by Ning Liang and put on the back of the donkey, and then let his daughter sit on it, and then led the donkey and walked in front with Hu Dunru, talking all the way.Before parting at the intersection, Hu Dunru told Ning Wan again, "Sister Wan, what I said just now was all polite, you'd better be more careful in the future."

Ning Wan was sitting on the back of the donkey, thinking about how to reorganize the shop and how to start her own business better. Now that Hu Dunru said this, she couldn't help laughing. So he hasn't forgotten it yet. , this person is a bit too pedantic!So he waved to him and said: "Take care of the godmother for me!"

Turning the mountain road, Ning Wan had already forgotten Hu Dunru's words. What she thought was that the Ning family's shop had finally appeared, and it was no longer the shop in the Ning family's heart. She must open the shop step by step big.
