"What do you do? Who are you looking for when you come to our house?"
The woman who answered the door was a woman in her forties, with her hair combed into a woman's bun with hair oil, a small flower in her hair, and rouge and white powder.
She was wearing a set of muslin double-breasted clothes that were not old and new. They were washed very clean. A pair of small jasper earrings hung on her ears. One glance showed that she was a person who loved to dress up, had some status, and was more or less capable of making decisions.
Ling Yun didn't give Su Youting a chance to speak. He stood on the clean bluestone steps and said hello, "Sister, I'm here to ask if you need beef. The fresh beef just killed today is very nutritious and the price is also good." It’s not high, we still have official documents from the Yamen.”
Just this call of "sister" made the other party smile with joy. Su Youting's eyes almost widened, wondering what kind of seniority is this?
Ling Yun seemed to know what Su Youting was thinking. Just now, he was really afraid that the straight man would slap the door panel on her face if she said "Auntie."
Fortunately, he spoke quickly and stopped Su Youting's greeting.
When the woman saw a pretty little girl in her teens calling her sister so sweetly, she raised her hand to cover her mouth and giggled, "This little girl is so good at talking, I can be your mother, and she's Call me sister, you are teasing me to death."
After saying that, he looked towards the large pot of fresh beef on the bullock cart.
Perhaps because he saw that the beef was really fresh, he spoke again, "I can't decide what's going on in the kitchen. Seeing that I'm in love with you, I'll go to the kitchen and help you ask."
When Ling Yun heard that there was something going on, he quickly smiled sweetly and said crisply, "Then let me thank you sister first."
The middle-aged woman opened the corner door again without asking them to wait, and a man with a mustache and more exquisite clothes came out together. He should be the chief steward of the house.
"Manager Zhang, look at this young couple selling beef. I asked you to come and take a look at it because it looked very fresh." The woman spoke delicately and lowered her head after speaking.
The manager was in a good mood, maybe it was because Lingyun and the others were lucky today. Manager Zhang patiently stepped forward and looked at the beef in the basin, nodded and said, "It's indeed quite fresh. You have official documents, right? Our Shen Mansion is not You accept everything, you are a cheap little shop!"
"Yes, yes, we have the official document." Ling Yun cleverly took out the still warm official document, unfolded it and handed it to the steward.
At this time, a young girl hurriedly rushed out from the door. She was walking so fast that she almost bumped into the steward and fell on the bullock cart.
Manager Zhang glared at the little girl with a straight face, "What do you want to do when you are walking around without thinking? It's so unruly!"
The little girl looked anxious and scared and hurriedly stood up to make a blessing gift and explained, "Manager Zhang, don't blame me. I am going to hire a doctor for the old lady. The old lady just woke up from a nightmare during her lunch break and has not eaten or drank for many days. At this moment, he is screaming that he will not survive, and he is asking us to prepare for the funeral."
Manager Zhang's expression changed as soon as he heard this. He lowered his head and said to himself, "This doctor has invited not only seven but eight of them. Why is it not getting better? It sounds like it is getting more serious. I have to go and have a look."
As he said that, he was about to walk into the courtyard. Before entering, he told the woman just now, "You can handle such a small matter as beef. If you like, just keep some and go to the accounting room to calculate the money."
Maybe it was Ling Yun's clever words that made the woman happy. With these words, she directly made the decision, "Girl, then I will make the decision and leave twenty kilograms for my master to try. You can bring it in and move it to the kitchen." Bar."
Ling Yun was very happy when he heard that his first business was finally opened. He chose a bright piece of beef, carried it with a straw rope, and followed the woman into the yard.
After coming in, a pair of eyes was not enough. From the outside, this house only seemed bright and bright, but it was even more beautiful inside. What an exquisite verandah, rockery, small bridge, flowing water, and flowers of the four seasons, all exuding elegance and wealth.
The woman was used to the envious looks from outsiders, so she said proudly, "It's beautiful in here. You should follow me closely so you don't get lost."
Ling Yun said yes obediently and withdrew his scrutinizing gaze. However, with just a few glances, he could vaguely see that there was a faint yin energy flowing continuously in the courtyard. It was not heavy, but the threads were so wrapped that it would not be evil, but for the old man. The weak are also at a great disadvantage.
When they arrived at the spacious and clean back kitchen, the head chef was very satisfied with the beef. He directly gave them the price of fifty cents per pound and asked them to pay the bill.
Seeing the yin energy flowing around him, Ling Yun couldn't hold it back and asked curiously, "Sister, has there been any incident or accident in the house recently?"
The more the woman looked at Ling Yun, the more she liked him, so she gossiped with her, "Girl, you can't talk nonsense. The master of our house is in the prime of life, and the ladies and gentlemen are also in good health. These words have been criticized by others." It’s amazing to hear.”
"Let me tell you, accidents do happen, but they are not from our family, but from the old lady's best friend. The accident disappeared not long ago. Didn't you hear it just now? The old lady was frightened at the scene that day. , I’m still sick now.”
Ling Yun was grateful to the woman for opening the business for him and making his first sale. He also echoed a few more words, "Sister, there is a saying in our village that this kind of situation may be hysteria. You can't see it just by looking at the doctor. Okay, I just heard that the situation is not good, haven’t you thought of a solution?”
The woman hurriedly put her middle finger to her lips, hissed, and stopped her with a little fear, "Girl, you can't say this. Our master doesn't like those gangsters. Naturally, no one in our house dares to say it, and neither can you." You're talking nonsense, don't talk nonsense about the affairs of the house outside, otherwise I may be punished."
A woman took her to the accountant and quickly settled the money for the meat, which was twenty-three pounds, fifty cents per pound, a total of eleven taels and fifty cents. The accountant was also nice, and gave her a silver check for ten taels. , and told Ling Yun to be careful not to lose it. He gave her one or two and another fifty coins to loose money, and also gave her a small linen money bag.
Ling Yun also knows how to do things. When he was about to leave, he picked out a piece of broken silver worth about one and a half yuan and stuffed it into the woman's hand. "Thank you very much for today, sister. I don't want to buy some melon seeds and candies for my sister to savor her mouth."
The woman was not willing to accept it, so she declined and said, "Girl, my sister really cares about you, not just for your benefit, but also to be kind to others and help my old lady accumulate good fortune. Please accept it quickly."
What a sentence to be kind to others. Because of these words, Ling Yun woke up from the excitement of suddenly getting rich. He thought of the karmic debt attached to his body. He also had to be kind to others. He could just help with this matter of the Shen family, but it was not good. Just sit back and watch.
As soon as I thought about it, I noticed from the corner of my eye that a very wealthy man wearing a hoodie and a bulging belly appeared not far behind him. I guess this was the master of the Shen family. He said loudly, "I When a person suffers from this disease, he should first untie his heart knot and then look at the actual physical illness. He should not be too hasty and blindly use medicine, which will increase the burden. I hope that old lady Ji will have her own destiny."
After saying that, just as he was about to walk out of the corner door, he was stopped by someone behind him, "Wait a minute, little lady, stay here."
