Rebirth Farmer Yaomei

Chapter 148
Ning Wan pressed her head, Luo Bing actually trained as a chef?
He must be lying to his mother. He is a son of a wealthy family. He studied since childhood and was ranked second in the list. Before he was exiled to the border town, he probably didn't even know which way to open the kitchen door at home!

Although he cooks for Lu Tieshi and his brothers now, God knows what kind of meals he will cook!This is also the main reason why Ning Wan firmly believes that Lu Tieshi does not pay attention to appetite.

Only a person as simple as Niang would believe that Mrs. Yu is currently stewing red beans, rice and rice in a pot, and said with a smile: "The surname Luo said that he is from the south of the Yangtze River, so he can only cook rice, but he is not good at making pasta. That's why I bought it at our house. I said that I am also from Jiangnan. Although we are not in the same prefecture, we are not far away. It's just that their place is a land of fish and rice and they are very rich, while our place often suffers from floods and is very poor. We recognized fellow villagers. We also agreed that whoever has the opportunity to go back to his hometown in the future must go to the other person’s house to help find relatives and friends.”

Ning Wan just smiled, this old woman can't afford it, she will soar into the sky in a few years, and she will never go back to Liaodong again.As for inquiring about news, where did Luo Bing have time at that time?He has become a celebrity in the court, and he is too busy with major affairs of the country.It's just that she can't get rid of her mother's thoughts. After all, mother still misses her hometown.

The two of them gossiped and finished the meal.The shop is closed and everyone eats, because Liaodong rice is twice as expensive as noodles, so Dejufeng doesn't have much time to eat rice. This red bean rice meal is quite expected by everyone, but Shandong steamed stuffed buns are also delicious. It's a little hard to choose.

Ning Wan ate Shandong steamed stuffed buns, tasted them and found them to be delicious, don't worry, maybe Lu Tieshi doesn't care if the steamed stuffed buns are delicious, but she must make them well.

After dinner, I went to the small hall. It turned out that she had set up a shop in Hutai County this time, and she had more experience in making arrangements. First, she moved all the married couples to the small rented yard outside, leaving only a few skilled hands at home. The shop is a lot quieter for the sharp-footed guy; and he chose one of the houses in the first row behind the shop to set it up as a living room. If there are important guests, he can come here to discuss business, which is more comfortable than in the shop. Much more at ease.On weekdays, she would also read the accounts or give orders in this hall, but she hadn't read the accounts just now.

Just after lighting the candles, she saw Lu Tieshi put back the gift box on the table. Ning Wan got up and put it away. When she came back, she found a small paper bag where the gift box was originally placed. When she opened it, Ning Wan was shocked. It turned out that there were two pearls wrapped in it-these were not ordinary pearls, but golden east pearls!
This kind of beads is only found in the great rivers where the barbarians live, and it has always been very rare, but now these two beads that weigh eight cents are something Ning Wan has never seen before!As the saying goes, "seventh is divided into pearls, and eighth is divided into treasures." It refers to how to judge the value of beads. Beads that weigh eighth are regarded as treasures, especially east pearls. .

Earlier, Mrs. Zhao had a hairpin inlaid with six or seven cents of heavy pearls, she cherished it very much, and would not take it out when she was waiting, and later gave it to Ning Wan.After Ning Wan took charge of the family, she also happened to get a few east beads, and she wanted to set a pair of earrings to match the hairpin given by Mrs. Zhao, but the size and color of the two beads were not quite the same, so it was never made.

But right now, these two oriental beads are specially selected. At first glance, the size and color of the two beads are almost exactly the same. Although it doesn't matter what they are inlaid with, they are the most suitable for a pair of earrings!
When did Lu Tieshi put this paper bag on the table?I had put the gift box among Mrs. Wu's things and sent it to him earlier, but I didn't want him to do the opposite, and sent this bag of beads to my desk.

Ning Wan couldn't think of it and didn't think about it any more. He had heard people say that he was very fast with his sword, and he often didn't wait for the opponent to see that the sword was already on his neck. He also shot arrows. Before others had time to set up the arrow, he had already After shooting, no matter when such a person moves under my nose, I will definitely not be able to notice it.

In fact, Ning Wan should have returned the bead like Lu Tieshi. Although she liked the bead very much, she was not so fascinated that she couldn't bear to return it, but after thinking about it for a while, she still decided not to return it.

Lu Tieshi is not an ordinary person, he is a hero, how can I return what he gave?What's more, he will definitely not care about the value of this thing. If he returns it by himself, he will definitely say casually like when he gave the mink last time: "It's just some small things that I fished out of the river. Let's play." In his opinion, the steamed stuffed buns given by him are enough to match these East Pearls, maybe that's why he wants steamed stuffed buns.

Suddenly Ning Wan remembered something again, she always thought that Lu Tieshi was poor and did not love money.But Mink from before, Dongzhu now, and, she thought about the same thing, the horse he rode, his private soldiers, I'm afraid he is not the cold-faced general who can only fight as she thought. !
Recalling the conversation when she wanted to borrow money from him, Ning Wan blushed. Lu Tieshi could buy his own shop by selling a few beads at will.But why did I take it for granted that Lu Tieshi had no money?Is it because the monthly money he gave Mrs. Xiao Zhou and Guo Xiaoyan was not much?Or is it because he never wears silk and pearls like his half-brother?Or it may be that he has never heard of him owning any property. He really has no shop or property under his name. Ning Wan has seen all the fish-scale brochures in Hutai County, so she can be sure.

Ning Wan fiddled with the smooth and beautiful beads, and became more and more confused about many things.But it didn't take long for her to jump out of these chaotic thoughts, Lu Tieshi was not someone she could understand, he was a hero, in front of him, it was enough for her to obey and look up to, and she didn't need to understand him at all.What I have to do now is to sort out De Jufeng's account.She put away the beads, opened the ledger again, and counted one by one.The accounts were settled, and my heart was at peace, I washed up and went to bed, there were many things that she didn't need to understand.

The next day, Dejufeng still opened early in the morning, and Ning Wan also arrived at the shop early in the morning, watching the guys tidy up the inside and outside, and put the goods in order, she saw There was a person standing in front of the door, thinking it was a customer who was going to visit, he smiled and greeted him, but was stunned when he was about to speak, the person outside the door turned out to be Bu Jiu!

Bu Jiu can be regarded as one of the celebrities in Hutai County, but his name is different from other people's names obtained by being an official, making a fortune, or having some ability.It was said that he had no father or mother since he was a child, and he didn't even have a proper name. He didn't know how he grew up, but the name Bu Jiu got it after he became a gangster and ranked ninth.Although Bu Jiu doesn't even have a serious background, he has become the leader of gangsters. All the shops in Hutai County pay him a safety fee every year, and then he uses the safety fee collected to open the shop. A casino has been making a lot of money since then, and it can be regarded as a well-known figure in Hutai County.

Right now, Bu Jiu is wearing a fox fur hat and a fox fur gown. With his hands in his sleeves, he is squinting at the signboard of Dejufeng. He curled his lips and said, "I didn't expect a new shop to open here!"

Old magistrate Xu's youngest son couldn't pay back the money he lost in Bu Jiu's casino, so Bu Jiu smashed the shop of Xu's family, and Ning Wan had a chance to buy it.Seeing Bu Jiu standing in front of the door, obviously he also remembered this matter.

Ning Wan only hoped that he would just take a look at it on a whim and leave. Seeing the tiredness on his face, he should have passed by here by accident on his way home after spending the night in the casino.But unfortunately Bu Jiufei didn't leave, but stepped into the shop, went around in a circle, looked at the various goods with interest, then took his left hand out of the sleeve, pointed at seven or eight items in one go, "It's the Chinese New Year, and I seem to have forgotten the big thing about the wives asking me to buy some New Year's goods, and I will pack ten catties of everything for me to send home!"

Sun Gu took two young men to pack the things attentively, it turned out to be quite a big pile, and then took out wicker baskets and put them in, bowed and smiled and said: "Please pay the bill, my shop. I have my own little guy to deliver to my grandfather's home."

"Pay the bill?" Bu Jiu raised his head and smiled, "Where do you come from? You don't know that Master Bu Jiu has never paid the bill in Hutai County!"

Where can I buy something without paying the bill?

Sun Gu and the guys turned around and wanted to put the goods back on the counter. Ning Wan hurriedly stepped forward to stop them and forced a smile on her face and said, "It turns out that Master Bu Jiu came to visit. It's a great honor for Dejufeng to see our New Year's goods." Ah!" Then he said to the clerk: "Add two more pairs of high-quality Hericium erinaceus, and send them back to Master Bu Jiu!"

Bu Jiu turned to look at Ning Wan, and smiled triumphantly, "You're still a sensible little girl, if someone comes to your shop to collect security fees this year, you can just mention my name, Lord Bu Jiu, and I'll save you!"

Ning Wan laughed along, "Thank you, Master Bu Jiu!" She winked and asked the boy to send the things to Bu Jiu home.

After Bu Jiu left, everyone in the shop was furious, "Miss Dong, who is this person, why don't you take his money?"

Ning Wan sighed, and seeing that there were no other customers in the shop, she said: "I was too busy to forget, Hutai County is different from other places, there are three religions and nine streams, and everything is there. This Bu Jiu is a member of the underworld." Boss, let him get three points for everything."

"Underworld? Look at him, he doesn't look like that!" Bu Jiugan was skinny, even in a fox fur coat, he was much thinner than Sun Gu in a fur robe.Sun Gu was full of surprise, "I think I can beat him!"

"Don't look at his weak appearance!" Ning Wan shook her head and said, "Bu Jiu is a person who has fought many times on the line of life and death. He has skills in his hands. All of you together are no match for him."

"Then let's hire a few helpers!"

"It's useless." I heard that there were several gangs in Hutai County before Bu Jiu became the leader of the underworld. They beat each other all day long, and the shops followed suit. .But after Bu Jiu became the leader of the underworld, the streets became orderly and there were no more fights. Even when Bu Jiu went out, he was often alone.And because the money is only paid once a year, everyone is happy, and Ning Wan also knows, "Not to mention our family, even shops like Xu's and Zhao's have to pay this safety fee."
