Full of food and color

Chapter 207

As the figure approached quickly, she slapped her shoulder heavily, and a joyful voice rang in her ears: "Why did the girl come back!"

Baozhu pouted, and hugged Zhaodi aggrievedly, "Cousin, a lot of things happened along the way, and I almost couldn't come back."

As soon as these words came out, the yard suddenly exploded, and Uncle Baozhu frowned, "What's wrong? Could it be that you have encountered robbers?" Lian Liangdong also nervously stepped forward and asked: "In today's peaceful and prosperous world, how can we go all the way?" Going the official way again, I'm afraid it's not a robber, it must be something wrong with the carriage?"

Zhaodi exclaimed, and hurriedly looked up and down Baozhu, seeing her smile again, her eyes widened immediately: "Really, what happened? I'm so anxious, tell me quickly, sister! After finishing speaking, he looked around, slapped his head, and said in surprise, "Did my brother-in-law come back together?"

Baozhu shook her head with a smile, "How could he? He entertained the nurses who escorted us all the way back to dinner."

Uncle Baozhu nodded, "It's time to do something, don't lose out to those lads, it's not easy to travel long distances." After speaking, he looked at the sky and cheerfully urged Baozhu and everyone to enter the house: "Still in a daze What are you doing in the yard, hurry up and rest in the living room, let your sister-in-law Chunxiang serve you a bowl of noodles."

Zhu Chunxiang entered the kitchen in response, and Baozhu smiled and pointed at the dozen or so large boxes brought in from the yard, beckoning Zhaodi and Liangdong to move into the living room with her first, Wang Fulai saw that the boxes were not light, Busy go to help.

They didn't ask any more questions, and only Zhaodi muttered, "What a heavy box!"

Baozhu explained with a smile, "The cloth and satin, vases and porcelain are all gifts from Si Pei's relatives."

After saying this, even my uncle was a bit surprised, "When did you meet Si Pei's father?"

Baozhu blinked mischievously, "I knew you would be surprised, I went to Bianzhou a few days ago, and I will tell my uncle the details when Sipei comes back."

Uncle Baozhu nodded and smiled again, "It's good that you two are safe, but I didn't expect to be back in half a month. Your mother only said that it would take a month. It's a coincidence that you can come back now. Catch up with your nephew's full moon wine."

A few people chatted and laughed, the boxes had been neatly arranged in the hall, and they went to the hall to talk for a while, Baozhu then learned that Wu Shi gave birth to her on the second day after she and Si Pei left. A daughter, who is being raised in the village these days, her niece is white and fat, she looks very much like brother Runze, and he is so happy that he runs around all day long when he has free time.

Baozhu couldn't wait to ask about the shop's business. Before Liangdong could speak, Zhaodi said: "My sister is away for half a month, but it's hard for brother Liangdong. I'm so busy that I don't touch the ground every day. I'm afraid it will delay the business. We close every day. It's an hour at night." She giggled, "A few days ago I found time to help out for a few days."

Liang Dong hurriedly waved his hands, "It's not as serious as Zhao Di's sister said. Once Baozhu left, I realized that I can't do my best on weekdays. These days, I can exercise my hands and feet faster." After a pause, he said: "The middle provincial city I came over there once, and it was for dim sum again, we Chen Ji dim sum are probably very popular in the provincial capital."

Zhaodi nodded, and said joyfully: "My cousin and I stayed up for a few days and nights, made twice as much snacks as usual, and sent them away. I'm afraid we will have some busy work in the future."

Baozhu smiled and said: "It's good news. Our dim sum shop may become prosperous in the future, and we should have made preparations earlier." Thinking about this, I couldn't help but think that the work of making cloth pockets might become more arduous, and I felt anxious Thinking about another thing.

According to the standard of living in the county, the salary of the embroiderer is a few pennies higher than that in the village. If the business grows in the future, those costs will naturally be negligible. The village recruited a group of embroiderers who were quick to work, and the price was based on the price of the county town. The third aunt had a bad waist and legs, so she was invited to take charge of the embroidery work.

Zhaodi thought about it slowly, slapped her thigh, and frowned, "The business in this section of the county is also good, and there is a shortage of cloth bags. Auntie has just hired some people, and she is busy all day long. I'm afraid I'm very tired after greeting Xiuniang." Glancing at Baozhu, she asked, "There's a lot of money in the account, my sister said, will it be possible to hire someone in the county in the future?"

Baozhu nodded, "Father and mother must relax completely. The dim sum shop has been open for more than half a year, so let's forget about it. Parents always worry about it. I was thinking about this, and now it's time to come It's the end of the year, and the county will arrange it before my parents move in next year."

At this moment, Zhu Chunxiang was entering the room with steaming noodles, and when she saw a few people talking about it, she laughed, "Every time I persuade my mother, I don't listen, and I just say that I will hire less embroiderers for one more job, so as to save money." Erli, this is great, after the county hires someone, parents will be free."

Baozhu took the bowl and chopsticks, glanced at the dark sky outside, and suddenly thought of Wei Sipei, the two of them have been inseparable every day for half a month, and they are closer than ever before, as if they are used to having him by their side every day Breathing, they parted suddenly, and felt a little lost, thinking that he might be having dinner with the servants of the Han family at the moment, knowing that he never drank lightly, and fearing that he only ordered one table of food, he should come back at this time, thinking like this Then, I was looking forward to it again.

He could vaguely hear the second sister-in-law and Liang Dong talking about visiting the third aunt's house tomorrow, and suddenly changed his mind, frowning and asked the uncle, "Why is the third aunt sick?"

Wang Fulai coughed a few times, and said vaguely: "I was always tired before, it's not a problem, your father has seen it, and said that it was because of excessive worry and lack of energy, that's why he contracted a cold and fell ill, taking a few doses of medicine is not enough. Enough."

The more Baozhu listened, the more she felt something was missing, she shook her head and said: "Third Gu is usually quick to talk, why is she worrying too much? But San Gufu or Brother Jide?"

Wang Fulai sighed, and shut his mouth dumbly. Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Baozhu couldn't help but look at Zhaodi. She glanced at her father timidly, and said in a muffled voice, "You are married to my brother-in-law. Brother Jide has been seriously ill. I was so confused, I called your name on the couch every day, and said that I have to wait for your change of mind. The third aunt heard that it was okay, she has always been counting on holding a grandson! Brother Jide just happened to be sick that day and was killed by the third Gu Lian beat and rushed to the provincial capital, but fell ill when she turned around."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he stared blankly at the door in a daze. Before Bao Zhu could speak, he followed her gaze to the door. An obscure smile appeared on his face.

Baozhu couldn't help shivering, and stopped what she wanted to say. Everyone in the room stopped talking with embarrassment. Baozhu stood up and walked towards him, "Why is it so early? Those servants are all arranged?"

He nodded, "It's a coincidence that it's better to come earlier, just in time for the big guys to talk in the room." Baozhu intuitively felt that there was something in his words, but when she looked at him again, she walked into the hall with a gentle smile on her face. After saying hello to my uncle, I sat down and chatted with him, talking about the itinerary of the past few days and my experience at Xia's house.

At this moment everyone's attention was attracted by him, and the embarrassment just left behind, and knowing that there were such complicated reasons for Xia's trip, Uncle Baozhu couldn't help sighing, and relieved him, " Your grandma can't do anything about it, her dear son is in jail, anyone in the house will try even if there is a little way."

Zhaodi strongly disagreed with her father's statement, stood up abruptly, and said angrily: "It's wrong to lie to people. I want my brother-in-law to help me. Why didn't I just say it in the previous letter! Those city people make so many twists and turns!"

Uncle Baozhu also had some complaints about Xia's family in his heart, but his age is so high, and he is the elder of everyone sitting here, how can he only care about his heartache when he speaks?Saying that was just to appease Sipei, seeing her daughter messing around again, she immediately glared at her and reprimanded: "After all, he is your brother-in-law's elder, and your brother-in-law has nothing to say, why do you talk too much!"

Zhao Di felt wronged and closed her mouth, Liang Dong quickly smoothed things over and asked, "Have you eaten Si Pei?"

Wei Sipei nodded, "I just ate some outside." Then he turned to look at Baozhu, "Have you eaten Baozhu?"

Baozhu nodded, feeling a little embarrassed about what happened just now, she smiled at him, "Tell cousin about the fact that we were almost killed, she is anxious to hear just now."

He chuckled lightly at Baozhu, and with that one glance, his dark eyes seemed to see through Baozhu's twisted thoughts, Baozhu couldn't help but blushed, and when he raised his head again, he had already started talking slowly.

There were a lot of things happened between the two of them in half a month away from home. After talking long and short for half an hour, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. They all came from the countryside. For them, the life of the official and wealthy family is too far away, they can't understand the complicated relationship between the Xia Mansion and the Han Mansion, and they say that in the countryside, if the sons start a fight over the separation of the family, it would be great to have a verbal quarrel , the worst is nothing more than a conflict, and there is no contact in this life. If such a thing happens to someone, it is already a shameful thing that I am ashamed to say. I am afraid that I will not be able to hold my head up in the village. Industry kills people?To put it bluntly, the unity of the rich and the poor is not as good as that of the poor and the poor.

Fortunately, the two of Baozhu came back safely, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Uncle Baozhu meant to send a message back to Yantou Village to report a letter the next day, but after discussing with Wei Sipei at night, Baozhu and Wei Sipei decided to go back in person. The ticket was 500 taels, and Han Yuanpei knew that his son had made up his mind to go, so he gave a lot of money, 500 taels, not to mention that it was a big sum for the Chen family, even for wealthy households in the county like the Wu Mansion.The sudden huge sum of money was still a bit tricky for Baozhu, who had always been down-to-earth.

On the one hand, the money is saved or sent. If you want to use it, how to distribute it and how to arrange it, you must always listen to your parents. Let them know.
