Chapter 84 How Dare You Sell It!

Chapter 84 How Dare You Sell It!

In the early morning of the next day, Yan Niaoyou ordered shopkeeper Li to open the store.

Mrs. Li put down the half-made purse in her hand and glanced at the bluestone street in front of the store from time to time. Because of the rain for several days, the brick joints in the street were covered with moss. The board reminds pedestrians to pay attention to the wet and slippery feet.

The young master said that there was a visitor today, which made her heart itch so much that she didn't want to embroider.

Today is a good day, the sky cleared, the doors of the shops in Ping'an Lane opened wide, and the loud shouts could be heard from a long distance away, but the incense and candle shop in my house was at the end of the alley, although it was clean, it also meant a lot of happiness. Few guests come.

Thinking of the shop opened by Li Congwen, she felt stuck. Tomorrow will be Qingming. If there are no customers today, it proves that everyone has gone to Li's incense and candle shop.

She was worried that there were no incense candles for sale in the shop before, but now that the young master has made new incense candles, she is also worried, eh.

Shopkeeper Li flicked the abacus with his fingers, and fiddled with it casually, just to find something to do for himself, to cover up the anxiety in his heart.

Shaodong's family made a new joss stick, he tried it, and it was even better than Li Congwen's!

But I was overjoyed and had to face reality.

Now everyone seems to have recognized Li Congwen's. I don't know if the young owner has made a better one. Even if we know that this world is always harsh on women, some people may be taboo that it is made by women...

He asked if he wanted to set up a stall, and he went to sell it, but the young owner refused.

Seeing Shaodong's family sitting calmly on the chair with closed eyes and resting his mind, he couldn't feel at ease. As time passed, the anxious expression on his face became more and more obvious.

Seeing that the two of them were absent-minded, Yan Niaoiao would tell the truth if it was really an ordinary incense candle, but now she was afraid that Uncle Li and Aunt Li would not be able to accept it for a while because they were getting old, so she decided to wait and see later.

Therefore, she could only vaguely comfort her: "Uncle Li, Aunt Li, don't worry, there will be guests."

Uncle Li stopped moving the abacus, and sighed inwardly, why don't he find a trustee?
After all, it was the first time the Young Master made something. If no one came to buy it, the Young Master would be sad...

After hearing this, Mrs. Li was even more worried. At this point, no one came. Will there really be guests?

Calabash Alley.

Liu Dajiang, Liu Dahe, and Liu Jiahe who were casually gathered at the entrance of the alley all stopped at the same time, you look at me, I look at him.

Liu Dajiang raised his eyebrows together, and stared at Liu Dahe: "You've been fooling around until this point and you still haven't come home?"

This little brother is probably itchy!
Liu Dahe only regretted that he didn't ask clearly when he went out, why he bumped into his elder brother here, but seeing his elder brother's face was serious, he didn't dare to make excuses, he just said weakly: "Brother, I just came out of home, really of!"

He raised three fingers and swore to God.

Liu Dajiang didn't even look at it, and hummed, "How can you get up so early?"

Seeing Liu Dahe's expression of dissatisfaction, he asked again: "Alright then, why did you say you got up so early?"

If you don't tell the reason, the family law will take care of you.

Liu Dahe opened his mouth and wanted to say, "Of course I bought joss sticks for Dad", but this really sounded like an excuse!

Hey, it's all the old man's fault, what's wrong with buying, must buy joss sticks?
"I...Of course...I have something important to do!"

There is something else to do, Liu Dajiang shook his head, he really didn't see the younger brother's hesitation, then turned to ask Liu Jiahe: "And you, don't tell me you have something important to do too?"

He intentionally bit down the word "important matter", causing Liu Dahe to wink at his nephew, with a hint of optimism in his eyes.

His eldest nephew has always been diligent and hardworking, and he never leaves his book at home, so he came out so early, could it be that he knows his sweetheart?
Tsk tsk tsk, my nephew has grown up.

Thinking of what happened last night, Liu Jiahe was still in a dream, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

If he said that grandpa asked for incense candles from the Chen family incense shop by name, would daddy think that he was stupid for reading?
In fact, he also felt that his behavior was a bit out of line.

I came here just because of a dream.

Liu Dajiang glared at Liu Dahe again: "Don't tell me you two are in the same gang!"

Ouch, I don't dare to do that, if he dares to take his nephew out to play, the elder brother will have to skin him!
Liu Dahe hurriedly retorted: "Brother, don't talk nonsense, it's really just a coincidence, yes, it's a coincidence, hehe, we are indeed a family, we can meet each other!"

Liu Jiahe stroked his forehead, Second Uncle might as well not speak.

Sure enough, Liu Dajiang smiled, and the gentleness on the corner of his mouth made Liu Dahe stand up straight, and he didn't dare to play around anymore. He was not afraid of being beaten or scolded, but he was afraid that his elder brother would laugh!

"Brother, I was wrong!"

"I really made a mistake, big brother!"

No matter what, just admit your mistake first!
"Brother, I'm not filial!"

"I dreamed of my father last night. Dad, he was crying with snot and tears, and he lost a lot of weight!"

"Brother, seeing my father feel so distressed, I am in vain as a son of man!"

"I asked Dad if there was anything missing, and Dad said, Dad said..."

What did dad say he wanted from the Chen family?

In the eyes of Liu Dajiang "you continue to make it up for me", Liu Dahe was defeated, and he simply said it without thinking whether his elder brother believed it or not: "Okay, okay, I'm telling the truth!"

"I didn't come back from fooling around last night, no, I came back from the outside, and I saw my father as soon as I got back to my yard. It's true! My father even twisted my ears, saying that he wanted some incense from the Chen family's incense and candle shop? So I Didn't you come here after finding out the address of the Chen family's incense and candle shop, brother, believe me, I really didn't lie!"

The Chen Family Incense Candle Shop?
Liu Dajiang didn't say whether he believed it or not, and turned his attention to Liu Jiahe.

Liu Jiahe couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard the second uncle's answer. Did the second uncle see grandpa too?

"I dreamed about my grandpa last night. Grandpa said that I want to eat incense candles from the Chen Family Incense and Candle Shop, so I..."

In fact, he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or not. If it wasn't a dream, how could he see Grandpa?But if it was a dream, how could he still be sitting in the chair when he woke up?
"Oh, nephew!" Liu Dahe patted Liu Jiahe on the shoulder, "Brother, do you think I'm not lying? Daddy really wants to eat from the Chen family's incense and candle shop. You see, my nephew also said, you You don't have to believe me, but you can't believe your eldest nephew, right?"

Liu Dajiang actually believed it when Liu Dahe said "Chen Family Incense Candle Shop", otherwise, according to his second brother's temperament, he could just make up some other shop, such as the recently opened Li Family Incense Candle Shop, and he would definitely not say it. Build a dilapidated shop.

When he heard his son say the same shop name, he couldn't help laughing, it was his father who did it.

"It's not big brother, can you stop laughing?" Liu Dahe retreated behind his eldest nephew.

When the elder brother smiled, he panicked.

This position can be defended in advance, and escaped in retreat. If something goes wrong, he will run away!
Liu Dajiang glanced lightly, then turned and walked towards the end of the alley.

Seeing this, Liu Jiahe seemed to have thought of something, and followed while shaking his head, Grandpa is indeed a grandpa.

"Big brother?"

"Big nephew?"

Liu Dahe hurriedly followed, not forgetting to mutter: "Brother, did you also dream about Dad? What did Dad say, does he have any little secrets about you? For example..."

He stretched out his index finger and thumb and rubbed them together.

Liu Dajiang ignored it directly.

Hey, big brother is still so boring!Liu Dahe moved closer to Liu Jiahe and bumped into his nephew.

Liu Jiahe looked over in doubt.

Liu Dahe shook his head in disgust, his eldest nephew is so stupid in reading!
After a while, the three of them reached the end of the alley.

At the end of the alley, there are only three open facades of a family. The archway hanging on it is the "Chen Family Incense and Candle Shop". At this time, a raccoon cat ran across the eaves. .

A board was placed vertically in the store, reminding visitors to pay attention to the slippery feet, even Liu Dahe, who walks without a straight shape, could not help but slow down when he saw the reminder.

The corner of Yan Niaoyou's mouth curled up: "Uncle Li, the guests are here."

After all, get up and go to the backyard.It seems that the prediction was wrong. She thought that there would be many guests as soon as the door opened.

Could it be that incense sticks are not attractive enough?
We can only wait and see if it needs to be improved.

Li Niangzi stood up immediately, and wiped and wiped the chair that was not dirty at all with a clean handkerchief.

Shopkeeper Li also held his breath, and looked at the first customer after a long time... His eyes inevitably widened, isn't this the Liu Dong's family of Fortune Restaurant!
In the past, although the Liu family had bought things in the shop, they had entrusted the servants to do the shopping, and had never been in the shop.

Liu Dajiang walked into the shop, although he thought he was calm and calm, he couldn't help but be confused by the empty shop and almost couldn't maintain his expression.

Chen Ruhai, I have met several times before.

Even Li Congwen, Chen Ji's former master, opened a new shop to compete with his old owner, and he has heard of it.

The booming business of the Li family means the downfall of the Chen family, but it also...

Seeing that the shop was empty, Liu Dahe couldn't help frowning: "I'm talking about the shopkeeper, you're open for business, what are you selling?"

Shopkeeper Li smiled wryly: "Everyone, please sit down."

Liu Dajiang cupped his hands slightly: "Shopkeeper Li, I don't want to sit down, but I don't know if the shopkeeper still has incense candles here. If so, can I sell a copy of Liu?"

"No, no, three copies!" Liu Dahe hurriedly said, this shouldn't be confusing!

Just kidding, buying a copy belongs to the eldest brother, how can it reflect his filial piety.

Shopkeeper Li motioned for Mrs. Li to take out the things, and then bowed her hands in return: "Please wait a moment for Mrs. Liu."

Lady Li followed Yan Niaoyou's instructions, put the incense candles in a basket and took them out.

Liu Dahe saw that this was really an ordinary white joss stick, racked his brains, but couldn't find any good words, but when he thought that this was what his father asked for by name, he bravely boasted: "Look at how smooth it is. candle noodles!"

Liu Jiahe: "..."

The second uncle might as well not boast.

The corner of Liu Dajiang's mouth twitched slightly, he really wanted to pretend that he didn't know this brother.

After asking the price, Liu Dajiang took out his wallet to pay, but Liu Dahe screamed loudly: "What?"

"One hundred pennies?!"

"How dare you sell it!"

Although shopkeeper Li didn't see how the incense candle was made with his own eyes, he bought the spices, and those spices were not cheap, they cost more than a dozen taels of silver for a small one, so the young owner's price was considered reasonable.

He then explained in a warm voice: "This incense candle is different from ordinary incense candles, it has a lot of spices in it."

However, it looked really ordinary, and he felt a little guilty after speaking.

After the three of them paid the money and went out, Liu Dahe still couldn't help but said: "Brother, are they taking us for a fool?"

Ordinary joss sticks cost only a few pennies.

Even if it's a bit special, like what the shopkeeper said, what kind of spices are added, ten cents worth the sky, this one hundred cents, isn't it crazy?

Thinking of this, Liu Dahe glanced at his eldest brother again, it wasn't that the shopkeeper was crazy, but his eldest brother was crazy.

Shopkeeper Li, who sent the three members of the Liu family away, must have looked at the three taels of silver in his hand, not knowing how to describe his mood for a moment.

There is sourness, joy, excitement, and more is unbelievable.

When he came to the Chen family as the shopkeeper of the upper shop, he had never had such complicated emotions.

Mrs. Li was also surprised. After the surprise, she was overjoyed. She couldn't control the corners of her mouth upturned: "Is this sold?"

Shopkeeper Li came back to his senses, and couldn't help but smile: "Yes, it's sold!"

If there is one, there are two, he will be full of confidence. If he was hesitant and worried when he heard that the young master insisted on 100 yuan, he will not be able to do it now!

Yan Niaoyao lifted the curtain, saw that both of them were happy, and asked softly, "Uncle Li, have you sold it?"

"That's right, Young Master's, they're all sold! This shop is finally open, no..." It's not easy.

Li Niangzi thought of the reason why the shop could not continue to do business, and the smile on her lips gradually disappeared.

"Aunt Li, don't worry, it's all over, there should be many guests coming today, don't Aunt Li get tired by then?" Yan Niaoyou persuaded.

"How could that be!" Mrs. Li laughed, adjusted her emotions, and reopened the shop. She couldn't put on a sour face, "I, I wish..."

Shopkeeper Li coughed twice, interrupting Mrs. Li's words.

When Mrs. Li realized it, she blushed. It was because she made a mistake in speaking. How could she expect customers to come to buy it?

Then tomorrow is Qingming, so we can always hope that more of these sacrificial offerings will be sold, right?
However, until noon passed, except for the three Liu family father and son who came early in the morning, there was no one more guests.

Yan Niaoyou frowned slightly, did she really miscalculate?
rely on it!

But she is very confident in the incense candle she made, it is impossible not to be liked by ghosts, so what is the problem?

Could it be that the original parents didn't share it with the neighbors?
It seems that there is a way to change tonight.

Mrs. Li, who came back from shopping for vegetables, walked in angrily with a vegetable basket on her shoulders. The shopkeeper Li, who was cleaning the counter, saw this and asked, "What's the matter?"

Seeing that the young master's family was not there, Mrs. Li put the vegetable basket on the table and rolled up her sleeves as if she was going to fight. She was so frightened that shopkeeper Li quickly put down the rag in her hand, and said anxiously, "What's the matter?"

"Aunt Li, what's the matter?" Yan Niaoyou was in the yard, thinking about improving the incense candle, when she heard the noise, she came to the front shop, thinking that something happened to Mrs. Li.

But Mrs. Li kept taking a deep breath: "It's okay, it's just that those old vegetable sellers are short of catties."

After all, he picked up the vegetable basket and hurried to the kitchen.
