Wen Nuan: "Dad, eldest brother, second sister, I'm hungry too. Let's finish our meal here and then go home! Auntie, second sister is being taken care of by you here -"
At this point, she paused deliberately, and then continued: "Your eldest brother has been planning for so long, you treat your second sister like your own daughter, treat her to a meal, and calm down, is there no problem
And this guest officer helped us testify that the second sister was not successfully plotted. Auntie, please just waive his order!"
What? Even if she can eat it herself, she also wants her to take away other people’s orders! This short-lived ghost, how dare she! Little Zhu cursed the warmth in her heart tens of thousands of times, but she still smiled and said: "No problem!"
For the sake of reputation, she accepted the debt, and she would get it back when Brother Liang married Guo Fuzi's daughter and won the first prize in the exam!
"Thank you very much!" Lin Tingxuan did not refuse.
When Wen Jiarui heard that he had helped his daughter, he immediately bowed and thanked him: "Thank you very much, sir, for speaking up!"
"You're welcome, please take your leave!" Lin Tingxuan clasped his fists and left.
Little Zhu recognized the bearded man and decided not to greet him in the future!
"Auntie is so kind. We don't have much to eat, so just have one of each signature dish! Dad, eldest brother, second sister, please sit down quickly." Wen Nuan greeted the few people to sit down.
One of each signature dish!
What a big appetite!
Little Zhu was so angry that she almost fell down!
A portion of each signature dish will cost several taels of silver. Are you not afraid of dying
But with so many people watching, she stiffly smiled and said, "Okay."
I can’t hold you to death!
Then she invited the guests in the restaurant to sit down, made some polite remarks, and gave each table a snack.
It has to be said that Xiao Zhu is a strange person and has received a lot of praise.
But so what, if today's incident comes out, Xiao Zhu's good image in the past will eventually be compromised in the eyes of some sensible people.
The Nuan family left the restaurant with a smile after eating.
Little Zhu watched them leave with a gloomy look from upstairs, feeling extremely dazzling.
My heart ached as if I had a heart attack, and I felt like I was too angry to be angry anymore.
Today I really lost all my face, dignity, and money!
Wait, she has never suffered such a big loss! She was so angry!
Xiao Zhu felt that her heart was so painful that it was difficult to breathe. She went back to her room and lay down. At night, she developed a high fever. She asked a doctor to tell her that she was suffering from depression in her heart. After drinking medicine and comforting her gently, she felt relieved and recovered. It took two days to recover!
Of course, this is something.
―――
On the way home, Wen Nuan went to a second-hand bookstall and bought a few books on ancient music theory for 100 yuan. Three old books cost 100 yuan, and a new book cost 500 yuan. Those unique books, books by famous writers, were even more expensive!
Pens, ink, paper, and inkstones are also very expensive. A stack of four-foot rice paper of the worst quality costs one hundred liters. No wonder so many people can’t afford to read!
There were still some pens, inks, paper and inkstones left over from Brother Chun's school days at home, so Wen Nuan didn't buy them.
I heard from the shopkeeper that only the four major families know how to make paper, so it has always been very expensive.
Warmth is a thought!
This monopolized industry is the most profitable.
When she was a child in her previous life, she visited an ancient papermaking workshop and knew that the entire process of papermaking was not difficult, but troublesome and time-consuming.
Later, she made paper with her own hands out of fun, and even bought books to learn from it. The paper she made was better than the ones in the bookstore! .
Wen Jiarui saw Wen Nuan buying a music theory book and asked her if she wanted to learn the piano. To learn the piano, she had to buy a guqin.
Nuan Nuan said he wouldn’t buy it for now and would build a house first. She was just reading a book and wanted to compose music and sell it for money. Wen Jiarui responded with a smile, but he didn't take composing and selling music seriously.
I just want my daughter to be happy, and she just made money again today.
The few of them returned home after noon. Wang had been waiting at the door of her house for a long time. She was finally expecting them to come back with the trolley!
"Grandma, I'm back!" Wenxin saw Wang from a distance and waved, jumped off the cart and ran over.
When Mrs. Wang saw Wen Xin coming back, she stepped forward and hugged her, and said happily: "Sister Xin is home, Xiao Zhu, the one who killed a thousand swords, twenty coins allowed you to wash the dishes for a year!"
Mrs. Wu also saw that her second daughter had a smile on her face and tears in her eyes. She looked at Wenxin from head to toe with eager eyes: "Sister Xin has lost weight!"
Wen Xin hugged Wu again and her eyes turned red: "Mother."
Wu hugged her tightly: "It's good to come back! It's good to come back!"
And the eldest daughter! The family is now ready!
Wen Ran and Wen Luo also happily gathered around Wen Xin and called them second sister.
Wenhou looked at his second sister who had been working as a dishwasher for a year. He felt as if something was clogged in his throat. He opened his mouth and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Second sister."
Wen Xin touched Wen Chun's head, her voice choked with sobs: "Brother Chun has grown taller!"
Wen Jiarui said: "Let's talk about it in the house first."
Mrs. Wang then looked at the empty barrels on the trolley, as well as two large bags of rice noodles and several bottles of seasonings. It seemed that she had made a lot of money. She said in disbelief: "Everyone was sold out, how much money did you make?"
Wen Jiarui pushed the cart into the yard and put it away: "Let's go into the house and talk."
The family closed the courtyard door and rushed into the house, sitting around an old Eight Immortals table.
The three of them took out their money bags and poured out the coins inside.
When it was over, Wen Nuan took out another one tael of silver and a banknote: "Everyone, string these copper plates together and count how much money you made today!"
Wenxin also took out five taels of silver and a gold hairpin.
The whole family was dumbfounded.
Wang was in disbelief: "Why are there so many?"
The copper plate was obtained by selling snails, but what happened to the silver notes, six taels of silver, and gold hairpins
Before she got married, Mrs. Wang's family was relatively well off, so she had seen some banknotes, but not many.
Nuan Nuan briefly explained.
Mrs. Wang was angry when she heard this and snorted coldly: "She deserves the money!"
As for the golden hairpin, Xiao Zhu gave it to her to restore her reputation and image.
I guess they all feel heartbroken!
But it’s not a loss at all!
Let’s not talk about Ran’s sister washing dishes there for a year because of twenty cents!
Where did Dafang's Fugui Restaurant come from? Wen Jiafu picked up a restaurant and bought it for one hundred taels? She didn't believe a word of it!
Didn't Mrs. Zhu secretly use the money from her noodle shop to buy it? She refused to believe it. The noodle shop had a regular customer base every day, so how could it be losing money every month? The secret recipe of the soup base was leaked by the waiter? She didn’t believe a word of it! It’s just that there is no evidence!
"Let's leave this gold hairpin and five taels of silver to Sister Xin as her dowry. What do you think?" Wang asked everyone.
Everyone said yes.
Wen Xin shook his head: "Let's use this silver and gold hairpin to exchange for the eldest sister to come back. Is it enough?"
The atmosphere was silent for a moment.
Wen Nuan stuffed the gold hairpin and silver into Wen Wen's hands and promised: "Second sister, I was planning to pick up the eldest sister on the day of the big party. I promise to take the eldest sister home! No one in our family can be missing! This silver and gold hairpin Just keep it."
Wen Jiarui also said: "Yes, we have already agreed to pick up your eldest sister on the day of the county fair! You can keep the silver and gold hairpin!"
After hearing this, Wen Wen felt relieved, and she put down the silver and gold hairpins: "I don't need them, I'll keep them to build a house."
Mrs. Wang then said: "The silver is used to build a house. Jin Chai Yan Niang, please keep it and give it to Sister Xin later."
"Okay." Wu agreed.
Wen Wenxin has made up his mind, however, that if the eldest sister can't take it back, he will give it to the eldest sister when she has hair extensions, so that she can be tougher in the Qian family!
But it’s important that Sister Nuan doesn’t get sick. If she gets sick, she pawns it off at a pawn shop to get money to see the doctor for medicine.
Wen Ran looked at the hill-like pile of copper plates on the table, his eyes were shining, and he was already feeling itchy: "I know how to count copper plates, can I count them?"
Wen Luo also rushed to say: "I can count, I want to count too!"
Mrs. Wang laughed after hearing this: "Little money fans, you count them! Count out ten coins and string them together!"
"Yeah!" The two of them counted happily.
