Chapter 35 Shopkeeper
“Let’s see if there is a store that needs a cashier, and the younger one will be a cashier. If there is no store that needs a cashier, the younger one still has enough energy to go to the dock to carry bags, and he can also support his family. ." Shopkeeper Huang said with a gloomy expression.
Zhao Wangshu looked at his thoughts and asked: "Shopkeeper Huang, I have purchased this shop and need a shopkeeper to help me run it. Are you willing to stay and work?"
"I am willing, I am willing, thank you, girl, thank you, girl." Shopkeeper Huang was grateful. typical.
Zhao Wangshu smiled, "You agreed without even asking about the monthly payment. Aren't you afraid of working in vain?"
"A girl is kind-hearted and will not treat me badly. "Shopkeeper Huang replied.
"Zhou Hai's monthly payment is three coins of silver. The same goes for you. The girls who work as female celebrities in the shop, you ask them if they would like to stay and work?"
"Let's go to the Yamen to go through the formalities first. We'll talk about anything later." Zhao Wangshu called Zhou Hai and took Shopkeeper Huang with him. Let's go to the Yamen together.
Zhao Wangshu gained a lot from this trip. He opened a third store and renamed it Qinghe Clothing Shop.
The shop was closed for half a month for renovation, and shopkeeper Huang and Zhou Hai were asked to help hire three male and two female waiters
After everything was arranged, it was already noon, Zhao Wangshu He stayed at the weaving and dyeing workshop for lunch, then went to Daohua Village to buy pastries before returning to the Zhao family mansion.
Old Mrs. Zhao asked her in a friendly manner, "Have fun outside, do you want to miss Shu?"
Do you think she came back late, why should you beat her?
Zhao Wangshu’s eyes flashed slightly, pretending he didn’t understand, and said with a smile: “I like to eat pastries from Daohua Village. I went to buy pastries, but I didn’t go anywhere else.”
This is the advantage of being a maid who doesn’t have to be arranged by a big house. She can do whatever she says.
"Why don't you invite the county leader to go with you?" Old Mrs. Zhao asked.
"We have made an appointment with the county lord to travel during the Shangsi Festival." Zhao Wangshu replied.
Mrs. Zhao smiled, "It will be good for you to have more contact with the county master."
"Yes." Zhao Wangshu lowered his head, hiding the sarcastic look in his eyes.
Old Mrs. Zhao once again told her to support her sisters.
Although the rules have been changed and there are days off, the girls who come to Zhuangzi would rather stay in the house and be a beauties than go out and make friends with noble ladies.
“TheyUnlike your tutor who has a profound education, grew up in a village, and has little knowledge, you help them and teach them how to interact with others. "
"Sisters should help each other. "
"They are your sisters, relatives whose bones are broken and their tendons are connected. You also hope that they will live well, right? "
Old Mrs. Zhao said a lot, but Zhao Wangshu was like the spring breeze passing through his ears, not paying attention at all.
When he came out of the upper room, there was still a buzzing in Zhao Wangshu's ears. Old Mrs. Zhao is so noisy!
Do people really talk a lot?
Back in the yard, Zhao Wangshu asked the maid to distribute the pastries she bought to the other girls as usual .
But what she didn’t expect was that as soon as she changed her clothes, Zhao Yuzhen and others came over, and the first thing they asked her was: "Are you really going out? "
Zhao Wangshu was confused by the question and blinked his confused eyes.
Then they said again, "You are so brave. "It made me dumbfounded.
"It's not like you haven't been out before. It's not a dragon's pool or a tiger's den outside, so you don't need to be brave. "Zhao Wangshu smiled easily.
"Sister Shu, where have you been? Next time during the holiday, I will go out to play. "Zhao Yuying is young and loves to play. Being trapped in the big house makes her bored.
"There are many places to play on the street. If you like to watch juggling, go to Ding Ding Wa. If you want to eat pastries, go to Taihe Building, where you can also listen to Mr. Storytelling; the market over at Guijingfang sells exquisite and cheap gadgets; Yibo Bookstore has the most comprehensive collection of books, and the earliest new books It's sold in the store." Zhao Wangshu briefly introduced the places suitable for girls to go.
"With the Feng Jijun here, you don't have to worry about bad guys causing trouble, and there are places where you are not allowed to go. "Zhao Wangshu smiled happily.
"But Aunt Wei said that a lady from a famous family should not leave the front door or step outside the second door, and observe etiquette and integrity. " Zhao Yuxiu said distressedly.
Zhao Wangshu sneered and said: "The head of Yixing County is also going out. Isn't she a lady from a famous family? After a pause, "Don't forget, this time last year, we were still playing in the fields." ”
“If we really don’t leave the first door and never leave the second door, where will the teachers come from to teach us? Will the world fall? "Zhao Jiahua walked in and asked sarcastically.
Zhao Wangshu chuckled. It was Sister Lin who fell from the world, but none of the gentlemen had the surname Lin.
The next day, Zhao Wangshu received a post from Yao Shanzhi, who invited her to go to the Qushui River to drink wine on the Si Festival.
The post read: Qushui River to drink wine, drizzle in front of the lamp, flowers on the eaves Su Su.
How can you miss such an elegant thing?
Even though I had made an appointment before, I sent you a post specifically. You are really a very particular person.
Zhao Wangshu put the post aside and took out a blank post from the drawer, "Bai Rong, Yanmo, I want to write a reply to the county boss."
Reply to the post Write: The green pond is full of green water, the tender willows are hanging down, and the green silk is dancing on the green silk.
When an elegant person invites you to do elegant things, how can you not keep the appointment?
Go to the room and hand the reply to the person who came to deliver it. He did not show it to Mrs. Zhao, which made Mrs. Zhao very dissatisfied. "You are young and have little knowledge. This reply is also valuable." Be particular about it. If you reply wrongly, it will make people laugh."
"I was worried that the visitor would be unhappy after waiting too long, so I rushed to reply to her. I remember what the old lady said. Stop it and I'll change it next time." Zhao Wangshu admitted her mistake, but she would do the same thing next time.
"My dear, let me have someone make some spring clothes for her. Don't be rude."
"No need for you, old lady. During the Chinese New Year, my grandmother has already made some clothes for her. I made several sets of spring clothes. When I was still tall, I made too many new clothes, and they were too short before I even wore them." Zhao Wangshu found a reason to refuse. She didn't want to take up too much light in the mansion and avoid confusion in the future. .
After hearing what she said, Mrs. Zhao gave up the idea of making spring clothes for her again.
With Zhao Wangshu taking the lead, on the third rest day, everyone went out together.
People talk a lot and have different opinions. Some want to go to the tile house, some want to go to the market, and some want to go to Daohua Village to listen to books
Let's go our own way, otherwise no one will have a good time." Zhao Wangshu didn't have time to quarrel with them, she was still in a hurry to visit her Qinghe Clothing Shop.
"Sister Shu is right, stop arguing, your head is hurting from the noise." Zhao Jiahua said, rubbing his forehead.
"No, the old lady said that we should go together and leave separately. What if something happens?" Zhao Yuzhen disagreed. She is the eldest and she has to take care of her sisters. This was also the reason why Mrs. Zhao asked her to go out when the engagement was approaching.
"You have a disciplined army, and it's broad daylight. What do you have to worry about? If you don't have a good word in your mouth, it sounds like bad luck." Zhao Jiahua said impatiently.
Zhao Yuzhen was scolded by her and lowered his head, not daring to say anything anymore. He then agreed with Shen Shichu to meet at the tea shop on the street in front and then go back to the mansion together.
