Jade spy border

Chapter 16 Brother
When Mi Yuyan finally ate the pot of red fish in sour soup, she realized that it would take about two years and fifty thousand silver to revitalize the current situation of the Mi family. Of course, if there was another ten thousand more Silver is more stable.

As for why the uncle asked Mi Yuyan to look at the account book, she also found out clearly. In fact, when her parents went out to look for their younger brother, they took away the [-] deposits paid by merchants at the Flower Festival that year. And that year, the Mi family The contracts signed with merchants were all three-year supply agreements, so the deposits placed by merchants also tripled accordingly.

In the year when the contract was signed, due to drought for half a year, all the flowers in Linnancheng withered. Not only did they lose a year's harvest money for the family to chew, but they also had to pay high prices for the raw materials for custom-made incense from afar. Enter ten thousand silver coins.

Later, there was really no money, so the aunt had to borrow the fragrant ingredients from the spice shop of her distant relative, and she still hasn’t paid them back. Also, because their fragrant roots were empty, the control level of raw materials plummeted, resulting in an increase in waste products. , deliveries are often overdue, and business is far worse than before. To put it simply, it is really poorly run.

Of course, this poor management is also caused by many reasons, and the uncle cannot be entirely blamed. However, since the uncle is in charge of the family's business, he is naturally the hardest worker and has the greatest burden.In the final analysis, it took a lot of efforts by the uncle to use the excuse of a natural disaster to get the merchants who came to rush the goods to agree to a one-year extension to replenish all the goods. Otherwise, Mi's family would have been sued long ago and the whole family would have to chip in. The debt was paid.

Of course, this is not yet the Flower Festival. When the New Year Flower Festival arrives, merchants from far away come, and it is time for Mi to face the disaster. At the beginning, it was these merchants from far away who signed the most long-term contracts. It's not easy for them to leave again, and Michael's credit has always been very good, so they were willing to sign a three-year contract.

"Oh, second brother, why are you always looking at me? I don't have flowers on my face. You bought such a delicious fish and killed it yourself. Why don't you eat more?" Mi Yuyan ate while eating what her aunt gave her. After stacking a bowl of fish fillets, he muttered to Mi Quan.

"Sister Ninth, second brother just wants to ask you, how did you get rid of Mr. Chen? That was not easy to get rid of. I think he is just a smiling tiger, right, fourth brother?" Mi Quan said, He also walked around his cousin Lao Si Mihe who worked as a waiter in the store.

Mi He was drinking soup from a bowl. When he heard Mi Quan's words, his breath was interrupted. The sour and spicy taste jumped from his throat to the top of his head and then into his throat. No matter how quickly he turned his head, he still sprayed Mi Lao Qimi on the side. Half shoulder in.

This choking made the eldest aunt angry, and she slapped Mi Quan with chopsticks: "I told you to eat without talking, but you just don't listen. Look, Ah He is choking. Come on, come on, come on, Ah Jin." Don't be stunned, help your fourth brother to take a sip of cold water, and then wash yourself, no matter what you look like, you are not afraid of being laughed at by your sister."

"Aniang, you are too partial. It was obviously her first..." Midway through Mi Quan's words, Aniang's eyes bulged and she quickly turned around: "She ate it first, and I felt it was delicious just looking at it." …”

"We, Hua Niang, have loved to eat the fish in sour soup made by our uncle since we were little. When we were little, it was so spicy that we shed tears and we still had to eat it. Naturally, it tasted delicious. Come, come, eat more, eat more..."

Mi Quan watched Meng put another large piece of fish fillet into Hua Niang's plate, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. When Meng was a child, he had never defeated his sisters. Now, her sister finally After getting married, my sister followed her grandparents in the clan, and this time she was an ancestor again. Ha, Mi Quan squeezed her chopsticks and put them into the big pottery bowl, preparing to pick up a chopstick-sized one.

"What are you fishing for? There is not enough fish for you to eat. Come on, come on. Eat this fish head. Don't think about eating well all day long. If you don't save some for your younger brothers and sisters, how can you act like an elder brother? It looks like..." Meng stuffed the half of the big herring head into the rice bowl, but no matter how big the herring was, the head was still not tasty.Seeing Mi Quan's aggrieved look, Mi Hua Niang looked helpless at him, then laughed and continued to eat sweetly the large chunks of tender fish in the bowl.

In Mi Yuyan's memory, whether it is the elders and younger brothers who died on the battlefield in the previous life, or the ordinary Mi family brothers in this life, they all have all kinds of naughty scenes together in childhood. After getting into trouble, they are still the same. The brothers and sisters were taken care of, and the girls shed a few tears and made faces, and then they were dragged back to the room to wash their faces...

Mi Quan watched A Niang go to serve the rice, then touched Mi Yuyan with his arm: "Hua Niang, please don't show off. There is really no other way. Let's give the box of incense to Mr. Chen. I'll come back later." I'll go to my grandma's house again to beg my third uncle, he loves me the most..."

I don't know whether it was because she hadn't eaten something so spicy for a long time, or whether the fish cooked by her aunt was particularly delicious, but Mi Yuyan was brought to tears by the spicy food again, so she had to pretend to be choked and cough continuously.

When Mrs. Meng heard Hua Niang coughing, she ran out from the stove and said, "What's wrong, Hua Niang? Did you add too much spicy food? Next time, use less spicy food. Don't use it. Ah Quan, why don't you pour some water for your sister?" It's cold, cool water..." Mrs. Meng watched Ah Quan jump up and enter the flower hall, and couldn't help but follow behind and give instructions.

Mi Huaian has been sitting there silently, sipping wine and sipping on the thin layer of meat on the fish bones, which is the piece of soft meat next to the fish belly. When he tastes it today, he seems to have found the taste of the past, with a hint of fishy smell. None. How long has it been since the dinner table at home was so lively?
Even in the store, the manpower is constantly decreasing. First, the waiters hired from outside were fired. Later, the clan members had nothing to do in the store, so they gradually returned to the clan, and even , I heard from my father that there are already children in the clan who have gone out to make a living...

Over the years, for Mi Huaian and the entire Mi family, losing the support of the fragrant roots seemed to have taken away the bones and muscles of Mi Huaian and Mi Huaian.Without the energy of the past, Mi Huaian knew in his heart that he was just trying to cope passively because there were so many mouths to chew in the clan.

I don’t know why, when Hua Niang came back today, especially her behavior when she was dealing with Mr. Chen, even just a few simple words, inexplicably made his heart sink to the bottom, and it slipped back again, but as an elder, He couldn't show it, and he didn't want to put all the burden of the family on such a little girl.

The three and a half young men finally mixed rice with the pot of sour soup and ate three large bowls. Finally, after finishing the meal in a lively manner, Mi Yuyan cleared the table and then said to Mi Quan: "Second brother, you What else is hidden? Take them all out and let me take a look and see how many finished incense can be combined."
