Chapter 089 Wealth
Old man He walked into such a high-end restaurant for the first time, and they didn't even hear of the dishes ordered by Cailian for his family. Naturally, this group of people eat and drink in the mountains and seas, and the old man He feels that he has a lot of face and feels that he has support and will never be easily bullied by others.
Old He took a few sips and drank a few cups of wine and said in a good mood, " girl, you can be said to fight for the face of our whole family. You, the maid in charge of the forest house, like the Bodhisattva of our family, not only blesses the food and clothing of the whole family, but also protects the safety of the family. In the past, Li Zheng came to our village and shouted that he didn't put us in his eyes at all. Now, when he sees your father and me, he can always show a happy smile. That day, I sent you to the Lin family, which was definitely a very correct decision. If you have today's status, the person you should be most grateful for is me. Dad will never hurt you."
Cailian, who has never moved chopsticks, said with mixed feelings in his heart: "In my days in Hedong Village, you say that I am a loseter every day. Since I was a child, I have been treated like an animal by you. You want me to do the work at home and in the field. I'm tired from day to late at night, and I often can't get a good word from you. On that day, you didn't send me to the Lin family, but to sell me for money. TOEFL Master Yu and his two wives, I have the identity and status of picking lotus today.
The biological mother sitting in her left hand played a gas card and said, "Daughter, you can't blame your father. After all, this is our woman's life. At that time, the house really couldn't open the pot. If I don't sell you, the whole family will starve to death. However, you have a good life. You have entered a good family and followed the right master, so you no longer have to do this stupid work. I came with your father this time. First, I want to see how you are doing. After all, you are also the meat that fell from your mother. Second, I hope you can bring your sister into the Lin Mansion. Although the family is full of food thanks to Mr. Lin and his wife, life is also very difficult.
"Mother, you are so cruel. On that day, my father had to sell me and my sister to the master and his wife. In the end, the masters left me instead of my sister. At that time, I was so envious that my little sister could be with you! Now that the family can live, don't sell your sister's free body anymore. Recalling the picking of lotus with sour vinegar in the past, there was a little choking in his words.
He Xiaomei, sitting on her right, pouted and said very dissatisfiedly, "Sister, just care about living a good life, so she doesn't care about me at all. On that day, if my sister hadn't been older than me, I believe I would have been left behind by Mr. Lin and his wife. I am confident that I am no worse than my sister. You wear gold and silver, and your whole body is covered with silk and satin. You will be respected and looked high wherever you go. And I dress no different from begling. Look, you have eaten this table full of good food, and it's the first time I've even seen it. In the past year, my sister has been moist, but I eat bran and swallow vegetables every day.
The surprised Cailian stared at his little sister and said, "This year, you should be only ten years old. How did you become so sophisticated? Tell your sister that this should not be your truth. Did your father and mother teach you what you said?
He Xiaomei, who didn't lie, looked at her parents and said to the truth: "When I was at home, my father and mother wanted me to remember it and say it in front of you. At first, I really didn't want to. After all, I still wanted to stay in the village. However, when I came to this city, I not only saw many novel things that I had never seen before, but also saw my sister's outfit, even the wife and daughter of the Lizheng family, who were not as well dressed as you. What's more, when we entered this restaurant, we were despised by the shopkeeper as begging, and then we really realized what an ignorant rural girl we are.
Cailian took her little sister's hand and said kindly with a smile, "Sister, many things are not what you think. Be obedient and follow your parents back to the village and live a peaceful life. In a few years, find a good family and get married. My sister will definitely prepare a heavy dowry for you.
He Xiaomei knows that she is not bad and slightly high-hearted. Although the time to enter Guiping City is short, her eyes and heart have been dazzled. She looked at herself carefully again, and then at her sister, and her heart was extremely unbalanced. He Xiaomei thought that if she entered Lin Mansion that day, it would be her sister's situation today. She observed that her sister's skin was fine and white, and there was a good smell on her body, but her skin was dark and rough, and her palms were covered with cocoons.
"No, absolutely not." He Xiaomei was determined and ignored it: "My sister enjoys glory and wealth alone, but I have to go back to suffer, which is unfair. Although I am young, I can endure hardships. In the future, it won't be worse than my sister.
Mother He helped and persuaded, "Girl, just bring your own sister into Lin's house!" She will definitely go back with us to do farm work. I don't want her to be the same as you, I just want her to have a happy meal. If you can, you can also bring your brothers into Lin's house.
A handful of "young people" of the He family were ready to move. They put down their chopsticks and wine bowls and turned their eyes to Cailian one after another. They believe that life in this city is definitely better than life in the village. In their opinion, the big girls here are much better than the women in the village.
Cailian felt her good intentions as a donkey and said, "I'm just a maid in Lin Mansion, not a master. It's not as good as you think. I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I won't be here with you anymore.
After saying that, he got up without looking back, went straight to the shopkeeper, said a few words, took out two silver tickets in the money bag, and settled the total accounts recorded here by Chu Hanlu this month. As for her own expenses, she spent her own private money. Before leaving, she still made a bag of her master's favorite special pastries and snacks, and took away several varieties.
The shopkeeper personally sent her out of the door and said with a smile, "Miss Cailian, take your time."
Old He and others know that she is not what she used to be, and it is normal to have a bad temper. He seemed to be a little helpless, picked up the wine cup and drank it. He's mother really didn't know what to say. She shook her head and sighed. He Xiaomei really doesn't want to go back. After all, her sister has hit her too much.
The shopkeeper walked to their middle and rejected them in his heart, but his face looked as usual, "Miss Cailian, I have already told me that you need any wine and vegetables, just order them."
Old man He wanted to figure out how much money they ate at the three tables and said, "How much money have we spent?"
The shopkeeper smiled honestly and said truthfully, "You spent a total of 30 taels of silver."
The sound of 'wow' came one after another, and the old man He shook his head and sighed, "In our land, we can already buy six mu of good land, and ten mu of poor land. We ate this meal enough to be a loser.
Although the smiling shopkeepers didn't say anything, they believed in their hearts that they were really a group of poor countrymen who had never seen the world. Fifteen people set up three tables of decent banquets, and spread out ten taels of silver on each table, which is neither more nor less. In this Guiping city, he can be regarded as a real leader, and he will not patronize his own small shop at all.
The reason why I can tie a thread with Lin Zhifu's family is to win the favor of Mrs. Chu by the special cakes and snacks of her own restaurant. Cailian also specially told him that the day after the doctor's life, he could use the things of their restaurant, so he asked him to bring two competent cooks to the government hall to help. As far as the shopkeeper knows, it is an affirmation to get this glory. After all, only three restaurants in the city have this honor, and the reputation and grade of the other two restaurants are one or two levels higher than themselves.
The shopkeeper who doesn't want to stand here stupidly and said with a professional smile, "If you haven't thought about it, then think slowly and don't worry. After thinking about it, just give a shout. I have something else to do, so excuse me first."
He Xiaomei seemed to hit the nail on the head, but she only saw the surface without substance and said, "You are a great insight! My sister should be just a small maid in Lin's house, and she casually takes 30 taels of silver, just like playing.
He's mother was so distressed that she said, "Oh, this girl really doesn't know what's good or bad. When she is rich, she forgets Ben. Thirty taels of silver can be eaten by our family for more than ten years. Nowadays, a meal is gone. It's really a pity."
"Our daughter has developed, and even my own father-in-law is beginning to recognize her." Old man He filled himself with a cup of wine, drank an empty glass again, and suddenly said, "Good wine, it's really good wine."
He Xiaomei, who was young, continued to complain endlessly, "It's all my father's fault. If it's me who entered Lin's house that day, not my sister." I will definitely honor you. In the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to see her all the time.
Old He slapped the table with dissatisfaction and said angrily, "Damn, she is the daughter of my old He family, which is an unchangeable fact. If it hadn't been for me, I would not have her today. Don't worry, your father will find a way to send you to Lin's house.
He Xiaomei, who was full of hope, decided that she could enter the Lin Mansion as a fairy, so she personally filled him with a cup of wine and said with a smile, "My daughter depends on her father all her life."
After drinking this glass of wine, Hetou fell into the mountains and seas with everyone. After all, the taste of this wine and vegetable is really delicious. After eating today, I have no idea if there is any chance in the future?
