"What crime have I done?" tofu hyacinth's eyes were red as he sighed towards the sky.
The two soldiers were eating and drinking. Seeing this, they smiled at each other.
"It's coming again, it's coming again."
"Isn't that so? This kind of scene happens every day. The two of them aren't sick of it, but we are tired of it. Why can't we try something new?" Sigh, I'll say it. You two, mother and son, will you change to a new poem and listen to it? It's been half a month, almost a month. Even if you were to talk about your daughter who died in Prince Rong's Mansion, it would be fine. "
The official's words caused Madame Song to sob and shut her mouth. She looked at her son and turned her face away.
Once the mother and son met Mei Wu, they did not say a word, afraid that the Prince Rong's Mansion's people would hear and look for them. When they first left Prince Rong's Mansion, the words of the King Rong's Consort were still in their ears.
Seeing them act this way, the two officials smiled at each other, "Look, those who are afraid of death, if they have any guts, they will at least scold them. Just consider it as a way to let the dead rest in peace."
"Sigh, that trash, scold him a bit or two and he'll give you a sip of the wine inside to warm your body."
The Elementary Scholar was moved, but in the end, his desire to live gained the upper hand. He would rather not drink this wine than say that it was bad for the Prince Rong's Mansion.
Disappointed, he felt that his son was really just like what these people had said, truly without any guts. After being criticized to such a state, he didn't even dare let out a fart, and what was even more pitiful, was that his own mother was beaten up so much that he was only concerned with protecting himself from the consequences. He had never thought of sharing some of the burden with her.
tofu hyacinth was disappointed, his throat was choked with a bunch of curses, but because of the two officials who were about to get up and continue walking, he swallowed them back down.
In the end, the official still carried her and stood up.
The mother and son duo were shuffling their memorials behind them.
The Elementary Scholar thought of one thing. "Didn't they say that Song Zhixiao was sent to the Northwest? "Mother, do you think we'll be able to meet him if we go this time?"
"I did, the northwest wind is so sandy and it's also on the battlefield, I'm afraid Song Zhixiao is already dead to the point where even his bones are gone."
The Elementary Scholar trembled in fear, as if he had already expected this to happen. Just as he was lost in thought, he was hit by a whip.
The official scolded, "What are you dawdling for? Let me tell you, don't think about delaying us, or else we might implicate us brothers to drink with the wind. "
The mother and son didn't dare to talk anymore. The two officials weren't afraid of anyone running away. They gathered together and chatted. When they talked about the girls in the beautiful streets and alleys, they immediately felt that it was a hard job.
"It's a good thing that our days are coming to an end. In two or three days, we will arrive at the Northwest Camp. When we see these two off, we will definitely go out and have fun."
"That's right, but it's just that these two are unlucky. I heard that the border pass is currently at war." If the two of them go, they might just die. "
The two of them spoke in such a manner that it was impossible not to be filled with obscenities.
The mother and son duo in front, on the other hand, heard that they were going to reach the border in two or three days, but they were not relaxed at all. On the contrary, they were even more perturbed, they had been hoping that they could go faster on this road, so that they would not suffer.
Second for Song Zhixiao.
After Mian Niang said this to Tian Rusi last time, when she came back, he had already told Madame Song that she would not let him go. After asking Song Zhien to go, he found the middle-aged couple next door, A Yunniang and his two uncles, hoping that they would persuade Mian Niang.
When they entered, the room immediately became narrow.
Mian Niang poured water for them and talked about how they were going to collect the mountain goods from the left and right villages.
"Why is the stall getting bigger and bigger?" The one who spoke was Li A Yunniang, she blurted out, then immediately looked at the rest.
Madame Song and Li sat on the brick bed, and upon hearing that, it was as if they had found their best friend. I also said that, we already have a lot of them in our village, why are you still thinking of taking them from the outer villages? "
Madame Song Li was a timid and conservative woman. When she heard her daughter mention this when she returned, her first thought was that it was unreliable.
"The villagers are not as easy to get along with as the villagers are. If it wasn't for the Minister's words, everyone would have known what was going to happen. I'm worried that I would suffer a huge loss."
Furthermore, with so much mountain goods, if we were to take them all in and the other side doesn't want them anymore, what will you do? This is all money, and it's not even one or two plates of tofu. Or rather, we won't be able to get enough money from that side.
The ones who said that were Mian Niang's two uncles.
"You child, before this, I thought you were pretty good. But now, why do I feel like you're getting more and more worried?"
Mian Niang poured tea into everyone's cups and said to them: "I am not worried about that. With the contract papers left unattended, Boss Tan would not reject it even if you did not accept it, unless our goods are really bad. Only then will I have a reason not to accept it. "As for the money, Boss Tan had already put it in Boss Tian's account. As for the goods, I'll pay for them. As usual, I'm not afraid of that."
"That is true, but how can you be sure that Boss Tan and Boss Tian will be able to rely on you? What if the two of them join forces and cheat you of your money?" Mian Niang, you have to say that this is really a big business, if you are not careful, you will be tormented for so long.
Even the usually honest and stiff father, A Yun, could not help but voice his worries.
Mian Niang bit her lips and said immediately: "In order to do business, there must be risks, I have only met Boss Tan once, he looks kind and his business is big, and he won't ruin his reputation just for a small profit, as for Boss Tian, this person can be trusted, don't worry, uncles, she really wants to become rich with me."
"Aren't you saying that you've made up your mind, child? If that's the case, then why did you come to discuss it with us? Can't you decide for yourself what it is? "
The two uncle were a little angry, "It doesn't matter if you go or not, since you've already decided on your own, you don't have to discuss anything with us. In the end, it's true that we're your uncle, but we can't be your family, and we can't be your masters."
Mian Niang frowned, how was she going to explain it to them? The reason Madame Song Li called them over was actually to persuade them.
When two people got angry, there was no need to talk anymore. One of them was about to leave, but the other was pulling him away.
In the end, she was still my niece, with the ancestral tombs by her side, how could she watch Mian Niang really walk through the hole in the bridge?
Song Li quickly said: "Third Uncle, you are truly wrongly accusing Mian Niang, I was the one who called everyone here to discuss, I hope everyone can help to make a decision, Mian Niang does not necessarily have to do this business."
Mian Niang shot a glance at Madame Song. She really wanted to do this business, how did it end up like this? Madame Song Li didn't look at her. It was obvious that she was still stubbornly believing that she was right.
"After all, we are orphans and widows, we have no one to rely on. If something happens, who else can we discuss it with?"
The two uncles were moved by her words and could no longer say the word "go".
Everyone started talking at once, but most of them still thought that this business was too risky, so they couldn't really do it: "Honestly, when you said that you would do business, no one trusted you. After all, she is just a woman, and the good things that come from buying tofu doesn't mean that she really knows how to do business. But no one was afraid. If worst came to worst, they would suffer a loss. They would be tricked. Everyone was from the same village, so no one could really care about this. So what if they ate the food themselves? But this is not the same ah, we can be deceived by others, regardless of the other villages
Even a person might not be able to do it? "
"There's nothing that can't be done. When I make this deal, it's all in cash, be it with our people or with theirs."
Mian Niang, listen to Old Uncle's advice, ah, this business matter is really not a small matter like making tofu. You have to think carefully about it, that money is easy to earn, but you have to at least earn it safe.
filigree, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his mouth: "Boss Tian, is Mian Niang talking about the boss lady of the grocery store?"
Mian Niang nodded: "That's right, it's her."
filigree suddenly laughed: "Then we can do this business too. That boss lady, no one would lie to us, Mian Niang. "
A few people didn't expect her to say that and quickly asked why.
filigree frowned at A Yunniang: "You have met that person before. Tell me, what is she thinking about our Song Family's young brother?"
"Song Family's little brother?" The more she spoke, the more confused they became.
A Yunniang was no exception.
filigree laughed: "You can't even tell? Those eyes of yours, those eyes of yours are so big and lifeless, it seems like they've grown up for nothing. "
A Yunniang was suddenly enlightened: "Oh oh oh oh, I know, that Lady Boss .."
She dragged her voice, purposely leaving a few people hanging in the air as she looked at Mian Niang teasingly.
filigree also looked at Mian Niang with a deeper meaning, and even winked at him.
Mian Niang became more and more puzzled.
However, Madame Song Li gradually came to a realization. "Are you guys saying .. But how is that possible? "
