Chapter 162 Does brother like her?
Wang Fulin sent Ye Mingyue and Xiaobei's master and servant back to the back door of the magistrate's magistrate's office, and drove Cheng Naixuan back to the Cheng family mansion in Huangjiawu, and then stepped into his own house. It was already afternoon. According to the previous schedule, Jin Bao and Qiu Feng should have returned from Master Li long ago, but now Ye Dapao is "bed in bed and seriously ill". They two helped Ye Xiaopang take care of the patient together, and of course there was no one at this moment. Ye Qinglong turned into a temporary shopkeeper of the ritual store, and was even more busy.
So, he asked Kang Da Liu Si, who came back with him, to go back to his room to rest. When he looked at the kitchen door, he saw Liu Hong busy having dinner, but he didn't disturb her and walked back with brisk steps. After passing the Ming Hall and the Chuntang, he was the last time he entered the yard. Even though he was still far away, he could hear the chattering sounds of the west room.
"Second sister, do you look at this beaded hairpin?"
"It looks so good, my little sister is so awesome! When Ye Qinglong comes back, he will ask him to sell the box. After calculating the cost, he can earn at least one or two more silver!"
"The two girls also take a break. After all, this beads are exhausting..."
"What are you afraid of? No matter how hard you spend your eyes, you can compare to embroidery and make a female red girl? It's a pity that we don't have the needlework skills of our elder sister. I will prick my hand as soon as I get the embroidery needle, and I don't know what happened!"
Wang Erniang was showing her embarrassing appearance when she was holding the embroidery needle. Suddenly, a figure lifted the bamboo curtain and flashed in. It was Wang Fulin. She was about to get up and call her brother, but she saw that Wang Xiaomei had jumped down and ran over quickly. Wang Fulin hugged the person as usual for a while. Faced with this routine that she had been common in recent days, she had long lost the interest in teaching people a lesson. She just glanced at her brother and asked with a smile: "Brother. I have heard that you killed Wang Shangning's majesty again in the top scholar building today!"
"It's Mr. Wang. Be kind-hearted in front of others. Your brother, I was so angry today. I don't want to turn around and bear the reputation of not respecting the elderly and loving the young!"
Seeing Wang Erniang wrinkling her nose at her, she clearly disagreed. Wang Fulin, who was originally joking, showed off the cloth bag in his hand and waved at Wang Xiaomei as if tempting a child, said, "Little Greedy Cat. I'll bring you something delicious!"
"Brother, you're too much. Who is the little greedy cat?" Wang Xiaomei stomped her feet hard, but she quickly moved. She snatched the cloth bag from Wang Fulin's hand. When she opened it, she saw that there were round things inside. There was a faint white frost on the top of the fruit shell. She only opened a small mouth slightly. She couldn't help but raise her head with some wonder, "Can this really be eaten?"
"I don't know, right? This is called beauty fruit!"
Wang Fulin said nonsensely. Then he sat down and skillfully peeled the shell and picked up the meat in front of his two sisters. Each of them handed a piece of it. Wang Xiaomei bit it crisp without thinking about it, then tilted her head and said, "The taste seems to be a bit like Yanjin walnuts? But it is more crispy than walnuts... Brother, where did it come from?"
Seeing Wang Erniang chewing slowly while looking at herself with a strange look, she clearly asked how much it cost to buy it. Wang Fulin couldn't help but pinch the tip of the stingy second girl's nose, and when she was electrocuted, she stared at him angrily, then he smiled and said, "Don't think about it, this thing was not bought, it was specially made by me, and the day after tomorrow I will ask Miss Ye to take it to the Yixiang Club to share with those ladies of ladies. You must know that your brother, my wife's future wife will be counted on these small beauty fruits!"
As soon as this was said, Wang Xiaomei immediately shaved her face with her fingers and yelled around Wang Fulin about her brother wanting to marry her sister-in-law. However, Wang Erniang looked at a box of small jewelry that had been made recently. The family was owed huge debts. She once overhearded a little bit. Although she didn't know how many, the number was too large to imagine, but this was inevitable. Thinking of her brother giving her silver notes again and again, she thought about it and then took out a box next to the pillow. In addition to the two hundred taels of silver notes that were pressed at the bottom, there were more than a dozen silver notes and a small treasure bag.
Seeing that Wang Erniang pushed the whole box in front of him, Wang Fulin couldn't help but sigh that the children of poor families had been in charge of their family. Although their family was once rich, they had been poor by their father. He firmly pushed the box back, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's not yet this time. Cheng Naixuan's big head, I have taken up a small head. If I can't wait enough, I will come to you, the housekeeper, to ask for money."
Xiaomei Wang didn't quite understand what the second sister suddenly used to make a move. After she had enough trouble, she grabbed Wang Fulin's neck of clothes and suddenly remembered something. She immediately smiled and said, "Brother, can we follow Sister Mingyue to the Yixiang Club? I have refused many times before. Now the jewelry made by my second sister and I are so beautiful, and we may find a big customer!"
How did Wang Xiaomei know about this kind of words? Wang Fulin didn't need to think about it. It must have been instilled by that boy Ye Qinglong in them. He thought that when the former young man came back, he would definitely teach him a lesson, but he said, "If you want to go play, then have fun, don't mention jewelry. After all, some people, such as Miss Ye, will really treat you as friends, while others just treat you as toys for fun. If you think it's interesting to go there, I'll let someone talk to Miss Ye."
"Sister Xiaobei, Sister Xu's Ninth sister is very good! And..." Xiaomei Wang counted a few people with her fingers, and finally shook her head in dismay, "Forget it, I won't go anymore. Everyone else is weird. She always likes to ask me this and that. My second sister also feels uncomfortable, so she doesn't want to go again. I don't want to go there, but I just think that they can afford to sell more..."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Erniang hugged Wang Xiaomei tightly, and then forced a smile and said, "My sister is just talking casually, brother, we don't want to go, don't talk to Sister Mingyue."
Wang Fulin hoped that his two sisters would stay away from the strange gossip group of ladies, but they were aroused their emotions well, and he apologized. Thinking of promising Ye Mingyue to go to Taiping Xingguo Temple together, he told them. Now, Wang Xiaomei was suddenly excited, and Wang Erniang asked hesitantly: "I heard from Jin Bao and Qiu Feng that Ye County Zun is very ill. Since Sister Mingyue is going to pray for blessings, isn't it a bit bad for us to go together?"
"What's wrong with it? If your brother and I went with her, wouldn't it be a lonely man and a widow? I can't explain it clearly?" Wang Fulin shrugged indifferently, and then he patted the two little girls on the heads, "Anyway, that's it."
But what Wang Fulin never expected was that as soon as he turned around and left the house, Wang Erniang dragged Wang Xiaomei to the corner and whispered: "Little sister, what if Sister Mingyue became our sister-in-law?"
Sister Wang's eyes widened and was just about to yell, but Wang Erniang was blocked. After a while, Wang Erniang moved her hand away, and the little girl tilted her head and asked, "Do you like her?"
Do you like it? Wang Erniang thought about it carefully. Ye Mingyue had been here for the first time, and had been here several times since then. She took them to Yixiang Club and was very protective of them. But if you really want to say something between you and your brother, it really can't be said. When my brother mentioned her, he seemed to be just an ordinary friend like Mr. Cheng. Moreover, no matter what, Ye Mingyue's father is the lord of a county and has two Jinshis, but his brother is just a little scholar, and his father owes a lot of debts again...
Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly heard Xiaomei Wang mutter in a low voice: "And, I don't know if she likes me!"
As soon as these words were said, Wang Erniang was stunned and then sighed loudly. She stood in front of the window with her cheeks on her back. Suddenly, she felt that it was really bad that her parents were not at home. She shouldn't have been worried about this.
On the day Ye Mingyue went to the Yixiang Club party, Wang Fulin spent the whole morning in the backyard of Yidian to look through Ye Qinglong's account book. After all, he had been a young man in the grain store rice shop for several years, and he could write and calculate the accounts. He was neatly prepared. He also followed his previous instructions, while accepting the villagers' grain sales, and recorded some things he needed. In the past few days, there have been no longer only Shemin, and there are farmers in other five counties who were dissatisfied with the price of the grain store repeatedly. Ye Qinglong followed his instructions and pretended to ask a few questions for a while, but finally paid the price according to the price.
At noon, he had lunch here casually. Seeing that Ye Qinglong was too busy, he stopped disturbing the old guy who was very busy as a shopkeeper. He also asked Cheng Naixuan to sit here for a few words and quietly left the back door. As soon as he returned to his door, he saw a sedan chair coming not far away. Recognizing the familiar styles of the followers and sedan chairs, he simply met them straight.
Several sedan chair servants who knew him called Wang Xiaoguanren unevenly, and the curtains of the sedan chair were also lifted open, but Ye Mingyue nodded at him.
It was difficult to inquire about the audience level of the pepper and salt walnut in public, so Wang Fulin simply followed up with the official. When the idle people retreated, only Xiao Bei was left there, he asked directly: "How?"
"Your plan is so exquisite. The silk cloth pocket is made of Hang Shou, which is the first thing that makes them like exquisite tempers. I brought them with me, so they were less hesitant. And there are only twenty pieces. After trying them today, I don't know how many people will complain about me being stingy."
After Ye Mingyue said this, she thought that the ladies of wealthy people were quite novel today and asked where to buy the things. She seemed to have foresee how the newly opened store would be prosperous. Seeing that Wang Fulin was not surprised, she smiled on her face. After thinking for a moment, she said, "By the day of the Nanzhili provincial examination should be almost the same. When they come back, there will be a celebration banquet. Now that these are called beauty fruits, why not make another top prize fruit?"
"Good idea!" Wang Fulin closed his palms and his mind quickly turned. But before he could think of a marketing approach, Ye Mingyue spoke again.
"By the way, I originally wanted to invite Master Li to Taiping Xingguo Temple with us in the western suburbs, but he claimed that he was not interested in the Buddhist temple."
Wang Fulin had no objection to Ye Mingyue asking Master Li to accompany him, but he didn't expect that Master Li, who was arrogant on the surface, actually liked to join in the fun, actually refused. He thought that his two sisters whom he planned to bring with him tomorrow also told him this morning that he had too much work and didn't want to go, so he couldn't help but wonder.
