C190 None of your Mei family have any good stuff
After walking out of Peach Blossom House, Mistress Cloud could no longer suppress the joy in her heart. She grabbed Mian Niang's wrist and confirmed her words time and again, "We did not hear wrongly just now, does that Steward Zhou really want to taste the tofu you made? They'll be using your family's tofu from now on, won't they, Mian Niang? "
"I don't know. It hasn't been decided yet. They have to taste it before it can count."
Compared to Mistress Yun, Mian Niang was far too calm.
"That's about it, didn't you hear what they said? "So it turns out that the tofu givers ate the hair out of their heads. They no longer want to use the tofu anymore. Your tofu is so delicious, they will definitely use it."
The two of them once again arrived at the main entrance of Peach Blossom House. Watching the passersby, Mistress Cloud continued to think, "Although you don't have to worry about selling tofu, being able to sell such a large restaurant is still a good thing. If it really succeeds, it would be very difficult, and how much tofu would you have to make every day?"
"You don't need to worry about the hardships, but you'll have to wait until after I send you the tofu tomorrow."
Mistress Cloud's brows furrowed as she looked at the《 Peach Blossom Origin》 that was hanging on the Peach Blossom House's wall. It was unknown what she was thinking.
Mistress Cloud noticed her absent-mindedness and nudged her and asked, "What's wrong, what are you thinking? If it wasn't Mian Niang, why couldn't you see the happiness on her face? This is obviously a good thing, but why can't I feel your happiness? "
Mian Niang smiled as she shook her head: "We'll talk about it when it's settled."
"That's true, as of now, everything is uncertain. How about this, Mian Niang, I will still be here with you tomorrow, let's take a good look and see if this thing will work."
"Yes." Mian Niang smiled and nodded, suppressing the uneasiness in her heart. She was not willing to let others worry about her.
Raising his head slightly and looking at the sun in the horizon, Mian Niang thought in his heart: It is indeed a good thing, it is something to be happy about, what reason do I have to be unhappy?
Under the winter sun, the young mother's eyes were exceptionally bright and clear, her facial features almost picturesque. It was just that recently she had become so emaciated that her skin had lost its original color, her head was often lowered, and she was too quiet. That was why she seemed so inconspicuous.
In fact, with just this pair of eyes, he shouldn't have been able to come to this female mother's ordinary conclusion.
Jiang Ting's entire person was lying on top of the roof of the Peach Blossom House. Even in broad daylight, it was very difficult for anyone to notice his black clothes and black trousers.
From his point of view, he could see Mian Niang's raised cheeks.
The usually expressionless and expressionless Nie Tian slightly curled the corner of his lips, as if a slight crack had appeared on the mask that had always hung on his face.
Sensing his abnormality, Jiang Ting let out a soft snort. He didn't know if those few guys would want to tell him those crappy jokes one after another.
The two female mother s were still worrying about buying other things, so they quickly left the Peach Blossom House. Watching the two people's figures go further and further, Jiang Ting stood up and ran to a quiet place with his back hunched, preparing to leave.
He could finally relax. It was about time for him to leave. After all, there was someone hiding somewhere along the way. There was more than one person waiting for him in the capital.
He was about to jump down when he saw three people walking in. They looked like a bunch of scoundrels, and said that he should have taken Xiao Yun as a prisoner just now. One of them, a man with a short beard, looked around to make sure there was no one around before he spoke.
Jiang Ting did not want to attract attention, but just as he was about to look for another place to jump, he heard those people say something familiar, "Big brother Lai, second brother Hu, he is just a tofu seller, do you have any capabilities? Don't be fooled by his appearance, although he is skinny and looks black, he is actually a very beautiful little beauty, no, I tell you guys, other than a weak old lady and a half-grown boy, there is no one else in her family. Her father fell to his death in the car, and her brother was also sent to the army. Even if he sold her, even if your whole family died, no one would find revenge for them …."
After taking a step back, Jiang Ting got down from the cat once again.
He was used to hiding his tracks in front of anyone at all times. These people did not know that his words had been heard by someone without revealing a single word.
"You spoke in such detail that it sounded as if you had done it yourself."
One of them said, looking just as wretched as his words.
Jiang Ting silently held onto the sword in his hand.
"Actually, I thought about it. To be honest, I almost succeeded too. If it wasn't for the fact that I killed my way out of here, I wouldn't still be a virgin. Mother, if I had known earlier that she hadn't been touched by my short-lived nephew, I would have risked my life then …"
The rest of the words were unheard-of. The others laughed as they heard this: "Why are you still talking about your niece?"
Speaking of my nephew, you all should have heard of their names before, that is the outer room that the Prince Rong resides in, and that is my niece. Back then, the two of them were exchanged for a wife, you all should have heard of what kind of person that niece of mine is, if she doesn't look extraordinary at all, my widowed sister-in-law would be able to tell you about this marriage.
"Oh, I was wondering which one it was. So it's that Elementary Scholar's wife. Ai, what is her surname?"
"Surnamed Song."
"Right, it's precisely surnamed Song, you people with the surname Mei are really heartless. You've made her older brother match up with the army, and now you've even abandoned her. Now you're still thinking about selling her to the scuttle house, aren't you afraid of your retribution coming to an end?"
"Retribution, you guys tell me about retribution, it's really interesting, you kidnap good women like this, are you doing enough of it? You, Lai Tai, you are talking about you. Who doesn't know who is imprisoned in that small warehouse in your house, and you are just waiting for people's teeth to come get them?" When you tell me about retribution, retribution is also the first thing that comes to you guys. "
"Heh, Mei Tiangui, your mouth is full of nonsense, are you looking for a beating?" As he spoke, that Lai Tai brandished his fist and was about to hit him.
This man's mouth was cheap, yet it was also weak and useless. Seeing that the other party was serious, he became afraid, and begged him with the surname of Hu to stop, then that lazy Lai finally retracted his fist.
However, he was not too concerned about the business. "The authorities have been looking into this recently, and the goods that were pressed down on my hands have yet to be sold out. I might need a few more days to get them back. I don't have that much food to keep these ladies."
"Don't, this isn't just one. There are two of them. The other one is the same age as her, and she looks pretty cute. If we put these two together, it should be worth a while, right?"
"One more?" "Don't tell me that woman is also your niece?"
"Hehe, that's not it. How could I be so lucky? One of my nieces and one of my nieces are on the left side, but they are also from our village. They are newly hired New daughter-in-law s, they don't have to worry about not finding a buyer."
The two girls, even if they had to put in a lot of effort, were worth it this time.
"There aren't any capable people in this family?"
Mei Tiangui thought of Mistress Yun's Uncle Protector, and his expression showed a little hesitation. But he quickly replied, "No, my family is just a bunch of country bumpkins, what kind of person would we have?"
Upon seeing his hesitation, the two of them grew suspicious. No matter how extravagant his words were, they were still unwilling to spit them out.
"My two elder brothers are both true men. They have been in this line of work for so long, what kind of formidable people have they not met before? How could they be afraid of a few countryside bumpkins? If we capture him and escape without leaving behind a trace, who would know that we were the ones who did all these? " Mei Tiangui remembered the gambling debts he had not paid, he was extremely anxious, seeing how difficult it was to convince the two of them, he could not help but clench his teeth and viciously said: "How about this, no matter how much these two sold for, we will split four to six points, the two of you take the big one, brothers will suffer a loss."
The two of them looked at each other and knew that this was a good opportunity to push down the price. Hu Er said, "Twenty to eight points."
"Three seven, you can't go any lower. I won't hide it from you two, I made this deal to repay the gambling debt. You can't let me not pay the gambling debt, right?"
"You still want to bet? That sounds good, but without us, you can sell it. Try selling it yourself and see who would buy it from a gambler like you. I don't know the bottom line, but they are still worried that you guys will plot against them." Besides, you won't be able to do it alone. " Hu Er had a better temperament than Lai Tai, people would also say something, and with just a few words, he reached Mei Tiangui's weak point.
Fang Zi only dealt in acquaintances. The two of them had been in this business for many years, so naturally they had quite a bit of connections.
How could Mei Tiangui not understand this logic, if not, he would not have found the two of them, even if it was just thirty to seventy percent, he was unwilling, and felt that he had suffered a loss, not to mention his debt of twenty to eighty percent. It was just that the two of them did not want to give in, and as the two sides had reached a stalemate here, Mei Tiangui was waiting for the money to save his life.
He thought for a moment and came up with an idea. He hurriedly said, "How about this, this time we split 30 to 70 percent. The two brothers let me pay the debt first. Next time, I'll help the two brothers do something for nothing. Isn't this over?"
What he meant was to help them kidnap people. Seeing that the gambling debt was being pressured so tightly, Mei Tiangui threw his conscience that was even scarcer than his beard to the side. In his heart, he had a different plan, after this matter is over, the gambling debt will be repaid, who would care about what happens in the future, if one day he gets lucky and makes a fortune, he would return the money, then he would not have to do such a thing.
"I don't know. It hasn't been decided yet. They have to taste it before it can count."
Compared to Mistress Yun, Mian Niang was far too calm.
"That's about it, didn't you hear what they said? "So it turns out that the tofu givers ate the hair out of their heads. They no longer want to use the tofu anymore. Your tofu is so delicious, they will definitely use it."
