Peasant woman's day

Chapter 59

The carriage stopped in front of the grocery store, and Fu Rong went in to browse by herself.Gu Qingchen also got out of the car, but didn't follow in, just wandering around here to inquire about things.Fu Rong walked in, and a waiter greeted her: "I wonder what this lady wants to buy?"

"Do you have honey and brown sugar?" Fu Rong asked.

The little girl smiled: "Young lady, you have come to the right place. We have everything you need here, and there are so many kinds of honey alone. Come and see with me and see which one you like."

Fu Rong followed Xiao Er to the row of pots on the counter.The waiter lifted the lid one by one: "The honey over here is cheaper. The one over here is the most expensive." The two talked, and Furong scooped up a little with a spoon and put it under her nose to smell. Xiao Er said a word, and suddenly heard someone behind him say: "Are you Fu Rong?"

This voice... Fu Rong calmed down, turned her head, smiled at the young woman behind her, and slightly bent her knees: "Eldest young mistress."

The young woman who called Fu Rong just now is not as tall as Fu Rong, but she can tell her identity by her clothes, not the eldest mistress of the Fan family.She looked Fu Rong up and down, and sighed: "Just now Ziyun said it was you, but I still didn't believe it. It was really you, but it was really an accident. You didn't come back to see us, and grandma always talked about you."

Furong's expression was calm, and she bowed her body slightly: "Eldest young mistress is serious. Furong is now a married woman. It's inconvenient, so I don't dare to disturb you. Mrs. Lao and eldest mistress are worried about you." While speaking, her tone was Neither humble nor overbearing.miss?Heh, she didn't think that people in the Fan family would miss her as a girl for no reason.Mrs. Fan, if she really loved herself, she wouldn't have made it so difficult for her back then.

Seeing Fu Rong's attire, Young Mistress Fan couldn't help but be amazed: "You are really married. You look dark and thin. Hey, if you weren't so stubborn back then, I'm afraid you are the same as me today."

Fu Rong suddenly raised her chin, and the light in her eyes was very firm: "Young Mistress, please don't say such a thing. How dare Fu Rong compare with Elder Mistress. Now my husband treats me very well, and Fu Rong is very satisfied with her life now, and does not Nothing to complain about."

Young Mistress Fan was about to say something, but Fu Rong's eyes turned slightly to one side, and suddenly a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she walked towards the door.Young Mistress Fan looked over, but saw a tall and handsome young man standing side by side with Fu Rong.Fu Rong smiled slightly at Gu Qingchen, then turned to Young Madam Fan and said, "Madam Fan, this is my husband-in-law."

Gu Qingchen nodded slightly to Young Mistress Fan, without making too many movements.Young Mistress Fan obviously felt the tacit understanding between the two.Thinking of Fu Rong's decision back then, Young Mistress Fan couldn't express the feeling in her heart.She was full of emotions in her heart, but she smiled on her face: "It's a surprise to see Fu Rong today. I couldn't go to Fu Rong even when she got married, Ziyun."

Ziyun complied, went out for a while and then came back, holding a brocade box in her hand.Fu Rong accepted it without the slightest hesitation.Young Mistress Fan smiled at the two of them, helped Ziyun's hand and went out.

When they were out of sight, Fu Rong stuffed the box into Gu Qingchen's arms, and said to Xiaoer, "Weigh five catties of honey and five catties of brown sugar for me, and put the honey in a jar. The money for the jar is included."

After the two bought something, Fu Rong took Gu Qingchen to the nearest pawnshop and pushed the box over.Die Dang, 20 taels.Fu Rong handed the silver to Gu Qingchen without looking at the contents of the box from the beginning to the end.

The two came out of the pawn shop, Fu Rong raised her eyes and saw a figure at the corner over there, she hurriedly pulled Gu Qingchen: "Is that person Eldest Sister?"

Gu Qingchen also raised his head, looked in the direction Fu Rong said, and only saw a figure from the back.Perhaps it was because Fu Rong's words were in the front, and Gu Qingchen felt that the more she looked, the more she resembled her.

"Would you like to go and have a look?" Furong suggested.

However, Gu Qingchen shook his head, saw the man's back disappearing around the corner, and looked away: "Let's go, Yuanyuan likes to eat the cakes from that shop, let's buy some more back home. By the way, go and see how other people's pastry shops are doing." Take care of."

Fu Rong nodded, and the two went to the most famous pastry shop in the city.

As soon as he entered, Gu Qingchen ran into Zhao Shu, a classmate who used to study together.When Gu Qingchen introduced Fu Rong to Zhao Shu, Fu Rong only felt that Zhao Shu's gaze made her feel very uncomfortable, so she quietly hid behind Gu Qingchen.

"Brother Gu is so convincing, I really envy you to get such a beautiful woman." Zhao Shu rolled up his sleeves, his face full of envy.

Gu Qingchen hurriedly said modestly: "Brother Zhao is too polite. My wife and I came over to buy some things, and we will pay a visit tomorrow when we are free."

Zhao Shu hurriedly said: "That's naturally the most welcome. I wonder if Brother Gu and Mrs. Sister-in-law also welcome my younger brother to visit?"

Gu Qingchen said a few polite words.Fu Rong had already weighed out the pastry, so Gu Qingchen said goodbye to Zhao Shu.

"You friend, do you usually talk like this?" As soon as she got into the carriage, Fu Rong asked, "Looking at his appearance, could it be that he has also passed the test?"

"That's natural. Is there any scholar who doesn't want to pass the exam." Gu Qingchen said with a smile, "I still lived in the same room with him back then."

Fu Rong smiled slightly: "I don't really like the way your friend speaks, it makes my teeth hurt."

Gu Qingchen leaned closer and said quietly: "It's been a long time since I said such things, but now listening, my teeth hurt too."

Fu Rong smiled, but she secretly cursed in her heart: Listening to this man's words, Fu Rong felt that he must have failed the exam.

It was just a polite remark, Furong did not expect that three days later, this Zhao Shu would actually come to the door.

Gu Qingchen went to the foot of the mountain to gather herbs early in the morning, and Gu Simei took Tianheng back to his mother's place.Xiaotao is playing with Yuanyuan in the house.Furong heard Zhao Shu's voice in the yard from the kitchen, and when she came out to take a look, she couldn't help being stunned: This man really came.

Fu Rong euphemistically expressed that Gu Qingchen had something to go out, but Zhao Shu waved his hands again and again: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way, I'll just wait here for Brother Gu to come back. Sister-in-law, go get busy first, I can do it myself."

Can you stop being so anti-client, and take care that this kind of words should not be said by the master, you are too familiar with it.The corner of Fu Rong's mouth twitched for a while, she poured tea for him, and gave him a plate of melon seeds.Furong walked out of the gate and asked Aunt Huang's youngest son, Tianxiao, to go to the field to call Gu Qingchen.She made some calculations, then took some money from her pocket, and asked Xiaotao to send it to Aunt Huang, and asked Aunt Huang to cut two catties of pork belly and buy half a catty of wine.

Fu Rong ordered Xiao Tao to finish, and went to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden behind.She bent down to pull out the cabbage, and suddenly heard Zhao Shu's voice behind her: "Sister-in-law is so beautiful, why do you still need to do such rough work? Brother Gu is too merciless."

Fu Rong suddenly stood up and turned her head.Zhao Shu looked at her without any scruples.Fu Rong subconsciously clenched the sickle in her hand, her face serious: "Brother Zhao is not sitting in the front and drinking tea, what are you doing in the back?"

When Zhao Shu saw the sickle in Furong's hand, he didn't dare to do anything wrong, and said with a smile: "Madam sister-in-law may have misunderstood. I have never experienced such a farm life because my family is in the town, so I want to experience it. Madam sister-in-law, you Get busy." As Zhao Shu said, he kept backing away, not noticing that his feet stepped on the small ditch dug beside the vegetable field.He suddenly groaned, his feet sank, and he almost fell down.Fu Rong couldn't help laughing.Zhao Shu saw Fu Rong's expression out of the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but feel another wave of excitement.

Seeing his back disappearing from her sight, Fu Rong breathed a sigh of relief.Immediately, her heart trembled again: this person has taken the courage of a bear and a leopard, and actually hit his own head.Gu Qingchen, that murderer, come back soon to protect your wife.

Fortunately, when Furong picked vegetables and came back to the front, Gu Qingchen had already returned.Seeing Gu Qingchen, Fu Rong snorted and turned her head away.Gu Qingchen was puzzled, but there were guests, so he couldn't ask Fu Rong about it, so he hurriedly changed his clothes and shoes, and drank tea and talked with Zhao Shu.

At noon, Gu Qingchen didn't keep Zhao Shu down at all, so he did it automatically.When it was time for dinner, Gu Qingchen habitually got up and set the table, Zhao Shu snorted: "Brother Gu, how did you do such a rough job. These things should be done by women. We men are big men who do big things , how can you do such a thing.”

Fu Rong was carrying a bowl of cold dishes to the door, when she heard this, she walked in with a sullen face, put the bowl of cold dishes in the middle of the table, and said to Gu Qingchen: "The dishes are in the kitchen, I can't handle them, you go Help me take it down."

The main course of lunch is a large steamer of tamales, with neat slices of meat on top and a large pile of potatoes on the bottom.Zhao Shu closed his eyes and smelled it, and exclaimed, "What's the name of this meat, it's really delicious."

Fu Rong snorted inwardly, then turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes.Gu Qingchen followed her.When the two came out with the remaining dishes and soup, Zhao Shu had just put down his chopsticks.Fu Rong glanced at the steamed meat, but didn't find anything unusual, so she didn't speak.

Zhao Shu sat on the bench without moving.Gu Qingchen went into the house, carried Yuanyuan out, and took him to wash his hands.Xiaotao followed behind him.After the two children washed their hands and wiped them clean, Fu Rong handed over their small wooden bowls.After Furong finished serving the rice, she sat next to Yuanyuan as usual.
