Returning to the Pastoral: Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 21
Su Yun and the others unloaded the big fish basin from the small trolley, and took down the small scorpion hanging beside the cart. The three of them sat down. Su Yun wanted to shout a few times, but he held back. For a long time, he blushed a lot, but he couldn't open his mouth no matter what.

The only man among the three, Lu Erlang, meowed a few times like a cat, and then rubbed his hands with his head down and his face blushing.Seeing him like this, Su Yun laughed unkindly a few times, and then comforted him: "Did the city magistrate stop talking just now? Winter fish is in short supply. If we don't sit quietly, there must be some People from big families will come to ask about the land.”

The two children nodded and sat down.The three chatted for a while, and then a man in his 40s came forward to ask.Seeing that he was dressed up, he looked like the housekeeper of a rich family, and there were a few servants behind him.

Seeing this battle, how could Su Yun not know that this is a distinguished guest?

"The gills of this fish are still moving, Steward Lin, this fish is so fresh..." A servant stepped forward to look at the fish, then turned to report back to the butler-looking man.

The man who looked like a butler bent forward and stretched out his hands to pick up the fish and looked at it, "Well, the gills are still moving, and the eyes are not protruding. This fish is served fresh."

As he spoke, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. Su Yun looked at it and secretly rejoiced: There is a door!
"Little lady, what is the price of this fish?" The housekeeper's voice was very long, and there was a hint of arrogance in his eyes when he looked at Su Yun and the others.

Su Yun didn't take it seriously, but was secretly happy.This butler's behavior shows that he is a big fish!Look, the housekeeper is so arrogant, can the master behind him still go wrong?
Su Yun hurriedly got up, blessed his body, and said: "My lord is so polite! The little lady is a country woman with little experience, and I don't know how much I should pay for these few fishes by chance..."

After a pause, a slight smile appeared on his face and said: "My Lord has an extraordinary bearing. I think he is the steward of a big family. He is well-informed. The little lady is bold. I would like to ask you to make a price. As long as the price is suitable That's it..."

"Oh?" A slight surprise flashed in Wang Xi's eyes, and he looked Su Yun up and down with his eyes. Although she was dressed in coarse linen, her eyes were big and bright, and she spoke with agility. He is well-organized, and there is a sense of neither humbleness nor overbearing in his demeanor.

The most important thing is that this country woman has good eyesight, and she can recognize her identity at a glance.

Curious in my heart, I was not in a hurry to buy fish, but instead smiled and asked: "How did the young lady determine that the old man is the steward of a big family?"

Su Yun pursed his lips and smiled lightly, and said: "My master inspected this fish quite cleverly. He worked hard for the superior, and worked hard for the inferior. To put it bluntly, the master does not touch his fingers. Yang Chunshui, how can you have such eyesight as your master? But your master's bearing is quite extraordinary, and the wealth and wealth of a wealthy family are faintly revealed in your demeanor. How can ordinary people have such insight? Therefore, the little woman dared to speculate that the master is The steward of a big family in this city."

"Haha!" Wang Xi laughed loudly, cupped his hands at Su Yun, and said, "Teach, teach! I think the young lady is not yet twenty, and she claims to be born in the countryside. It's not like ordinary people in the countryside. I guess these few fishes didn't happen by chance, did they?"

Su Yun smiled lightly, and said with a blessing: "Don't dare to speak nonsense in front of the nobleman."

Seeing that Su Yun avoided answering, Wang Xi was not angry, and said with a smile: "I will take care of all the fish here, and I will tell you my lady, I am the big shopkeeper of Fuyunlou, Wang Xi, Wang Huixin, this winter day It's not easy to get the fish, each one is very precious, I don't want to take advantage of the little lady, how about 120 renminbi per catty? Just treat it as a personal exchange, if the little lady can get the fish again in the future, she will send it to my house Yunlou, our Fuyunlou is all inclusive, what do you think, my lady?"

Su Yun was pleasantly surprised, he didn't expect this fish to be so expensive, it was 80 Wen more than Lu Xier's 40 Wen per catty.Of course, there are reasons for the soaring price of goods due to the war, but now brown rice costs 500 Wen a stone, and the price of 120 Wen is not low.

She secretly looked at Wang Xi again, and saw that this man had a generous face, and the most important thing was that if he made friends with this man, he would be considered a stable harvester in the future.

And he didn't even ask himself where the fish came from, which made Su Yun very satisfied.It shows that this person is very measured in doing things, of course, it can also be understood as a deep city.

But it doesn't matter anymore.The current situation of the Lu family cannot be hypocritical. Since they can open a big restaurant in this city, and seeing this person's travels, the scale of the restaurant will not be bad.

It's just a little strange why the big shopkeeper came out to buy it himself.But what does this have to do with Su Yun?One is willing to buy and one is willing to sell.

Thinking of this, Su Yun blessed himself and said, "Thank you, Shopkeeper Wang, for your love. According to Shopkeeper Wang's words, the fish will be priced at 120 Wen per catty. If there are any more fish in the future, they will be sent to Fuyunlou."

Wang Xi nodded, and thought to himself: "This little lady is really refreshing..." Thinking that the Yunlou of Dongri Mansion would have fish for sale, Wang Xi was overjoyed.

Their Fuyun Building is different from the restaurant next to it, and they are greeted and sent off by well-known people.Anyone who can go to Fuyun Building for consumption is either rich or expensive, and the people who come and go are either wealthy or scholarly.

These people have the most tricky mouths, and ordinary dishes can't catch their eyes.On the contrary, money is the least important thing for these people.

Isn't it different for people who can go to Fuyunlou to pay attention to places?Fu Wang ordered the banquet three days ago, and the master is the most tricky guy, if you can satisfy him, the reward is not so generous.

If this great god hadn't ordered the banquet, how could he personally choose the ingredients for the ordinary people?I really didn't expect it!I didn't expect to meet a fish seller in this cold weather, it was a surprise!No, it's a surprise!
Thinking of King Fu's satisfied expression, and looking at the fish in the basin, Wang Xi felt that Su Yun was more pleasing to his eyes.In a good mood, he opened his mouth and said: "You are not light, and I see that the little lady is not to the point of weighing. Why don't you go to Fuyun Building and weigh on the spot, how about settlement on the spot?"

Su Yun thought for a while, then nodded and said, "But it's up to the shopkeeper Wang to make the decision."

As Su Yun spoke, he wanted to call Lu Xier and Lu Erlang to load the fish back into the cart, and hang the three small sticks beside the cart, but when he was about to push back, he heard Wang Xi shout: "You guys, go and help this fish!" A young lady. It is not easy for a woman to lead two and a half children to make a living..."

"Yes, big shopkeeper."

Now Su Yun felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way. People in the countryside deal with the land all day long, and they still have some strength. Thank you, shopkeeper Wang, for your kindness..."

After several pushes and pushes, Wang Xi saw that Su Yun insisted, so he no longer insisted. After making a "please" gesture, he took the lead and walked in front.Fuyun Building is not far from the fish market, just two streets away.

Looking at this rather elegant building, Su Yun's eyes lit up.It seems that when you open the door, you can smell a strong petty bourgeois sentiment.Although this Fuyun Building is not big, the young servants dressed up in front of the door and rapped and sang the welcoming words all reveal an atmosphere of "high-end atmosphere and high-grade", which is obviously a boutique route.

She sighed inwardly, and didn't allow her to look at it too much. The small trolley filled with fish was parked at the door, which spoiled the atmosphere. It only stopped for a few breaths, and Wang Xi greeted her and walked around from the side. , It didn't stop until the back door of Fuyun Building.

Wang Xi has been observing Su Yun, for some reason, he always feels that this little lady is very extraordinary.When he passed the main entrance just now, he clearly saw the admiration in the little lady's eyes.

But that's all!There was not even a trace of surprise, but the two half-year-old children seemed to be very surprised by the decoration of the gatehouse of the Fuyun Building, and there was a deep sense of surprise in their eyes.

But this little lady only showed some expressions of admiration, and then quickly returned to calm.

It's really strange that things happen every year, so many this year!The demeanor shown by this rural village woman is extremely inconsistent with her identity.Wang Xi suddenly felt that "this woman is very knowledgeable".

He watched Su Yun help the boy in the store to unload the truck, he was generous without any shyness, but also had the heartiness of a countryman.Thinking of the many hermits in the country, is this woman one of them?How else to explain her inappropriate behavior?
Shaking his head, he looked away from Su Yun, maybe it was his own illusion?Is there such a hermit in this sackcloth, with chilblains on his hands?

After thinking about it, I felt that I had some demonic disease. How does this little woman have anything to do with me?As long as she can send herself a fish, it will be fine.On the contrary, this method of catching fish in winter is quite amazing. Presumably, this little woman is also a smart person, so the sense of gap between different identities comes from this, right?

Soon, all the fish passed the scale, and the 7 fish weighed 102 catties, and each fish weighed about 12 catties on average. This coke spoiled Su Yun and the others.

Su Yun's mind was spinning rapidly, Wang Xi came over and cupped his hands and said: "Please wait a moment, little lady, I will let someone figure out how much should be settled for you."

"102 catties of fish are priced at 120 Wen per catty, so the total is 12240 Wen."

As soon as Wang Xi finished speaking, Su Yun had already made the calculations.Although I am not good at reading, I have been abused in modern education for many years. The experience of large and small examinations is no less than that of people who take the imperial examinations in this era. Math problems like this elementary school level are too simple!Why do you need to make an abacus to fiddle with it?

"Huh?" Wang Xi was surprised, "How can the little lady calculate so quickly?" Then he called a young man to come over, whispered a few words, and soon an old accountant came out with a hand in his hand. With an abacus, he walked up to Wang Xi panting, bowed his head and said, "Shopkeeper, I heard that there is a little lady who can quickly calculate the price of fish without using abacus. Is it true?"

Su Yun couldn't help but rolled his eyes, touched his head, and a look of resentment flashed across his face: It seems that he was in the limelight by accident?
