Flowers are expensive

Chapter 106 The Arrival of Shopkeeper Liu 1
Mother Li hurriedly picked up the broken silver, she cupped her hands and said with a smile: "I told you to spend money again, so how dare you!" She had already put the silver in her sleeve as she said.

Ma Liu turned his head, glanced at Cuiyue's face and said with a smile, "Looking at Cuiyue's complexion, you must have served me well. You deserve it, so you don't have to be polite to me. Take it! You have to take good care of her, you know? If her face turns pale, if her body gets thinner, I will question you."

"Yes, yes, even if the sixth master doesn't mention this, I will also appoint to take good care of Cuiyue's body. You see, her body is well-raised now, and it is easy to conceive a child..."

"Mother Li," Cui Yue immediately interrupted her, "You go to eat first, I'm here!"

"Wait," Ma Liu stopped Mama Li and said, "Finish what you just said."

Mother Li took a look at Cuiyue, and said with a smile on her face: "Master Liu, you see, I have been serving Cuiyue for more than a year, and I want to babble about some things, won't you be angry?"

"Don't be angry, just talk." Ma Liu said, staring at her with a wine glass.Cuiyue wanted to speak, but Ma Liu took a chicken nugget and stuffed her mouth.

Mother Li smiled and said: "Master Liu is a sensible person. In fact, some things don't need to be said by me, you are like a mirror in your heart, but I see Cuiyue is really wronged, and I can't help but tell you. Cuiyue Yue is now 26. Speaking of which, the previous one has been dead for three or four years. Remarriage is justifiable. As usual, she should really remarry, find a good man, earn a good name, and have two or three children. A child, living a serious life. But..."

"Keep talking!" Ma Liu bowed his head while stuffing vegetables into his mouth.

"To put it bluntly, she is being delayed like this now. After a miscarriage last time, her body has only recovered now. She is 26. If she wants to have a child, she will have to take advantage of these few years, and another three to five years Yes, people are ugly, and it is difficult to have children. Which man wants her to go? My words are a bit rough, so don't take it to heart. If Liu Ye really loves her, he should think about her the days to come."

Ma Liu's face looked a little dignified, he drank two glasses of wine and asked Li's mother, "According to your old man, how should I think about her future?"

"Ouch!" Li's mother slapped herself lightly on the face and said, "Look at Liu Ye is not happy, it's my fault, I can't control my mouth! I will apologize to you first! But I still want to say the same thing, if Cuiyue has no status and keeps delaying for you, it will be really hard for her. Liu Ye might as well be more straightforward, drink this time and let her marry, How can you return your kindness to her in the next life?"

As soon as the words fell, Ma Liu picked up the jug on the table and dropped it on the ground. He changed his expression and asked, "What do you mean by this? Could it be that when I was away, the two of you had a good relationship and the man was waiting to receive the dowry money?" Married?"

Mother Li was taken aback, and quickly waved her hand and said, "No such thing! No such thing! If you are upset, you can get angry at me, but you can't wrong Cui Yue! Someone in the town really fell in love with her and wanted to marry her To fill a house, but Cuiyue didn’t agree, she just waited for you! It’s not my fault, it’s not a long-term solution for you, is it?”

"Get out!" Ma Liu yelled sullenly.

Mother Li quickly turned around and ran out of the room.Cuiyue remained silent all this time, squinting at Ma Liu and asked, "I'm glad you smashed my jug? Why don't you even throw up a table of wine and vegetables? Are you thinking, son, what happened to Mama Li just now?" Did I let her say it on purpose, didn't I?"

Ma Liu was stunned for a moment, and he really was hit by Cuiyue's suggestion, he was just thinking about it.However, that's not what he was angry with. Even if Cuiyue asked Li's mother to ask him insincerely, he didn't feel anything wrong. After all, he knew very well that it was wrong to keep delaying Cuiyue.What made him angry was the situation the two of them had to face right now.

Before Ma Liu could reply, Cui Yue snorted and said, "Don't worry too much, Mr. Six! I made it clear earlier, I didn't expect you to give me half a name, and I wouldn't die." I'm begging you to give me alms. Li's mother also had good intentions, and wanted us to get together and get back together!"

"Shut up!" Ma Liu felt pain in his heart.This feeling was something he had never experienced in Cao's body.

"Even if you slap me twice, I have to say this..."

"Can you shut up?" Ma Liu was suddenly afraid that Cuiyue might say something bad.

"Anyway, that's all I've said today, so I'll make it clear! Don't worry about giving me a title or something. I don't want that, and it may not be safe if it comes. A man marries you, and it's all right. Or if you are unhappy, or if you get angry outside one day, you will be able to divorce you with a letter of divorce. Hmph, I don’t care about status. If you get tired of this one day, it’s fine if you don’t come here, if you still want to come, just come, anyway, you paid for this shop and house in the first place.”

Ma Liu suddenly felt a suffocation in his heart, and he was so bored that he didn't dare to turn his face to see Cuiyue's expression at this time.After the two were silent for a while, Cuiyue got up and said, "Sit down first, I'll get another jug ​​of wine. Don't throw it at me anymore, just treat it as a jug and don't spend money to buy it? If you really want to panic, Go back and beat me up!"

"You just think you're so worthless?" Ma Liu asked, staring at Cuiyue's face.

"Sixth uncle, am I worth anything? When you bought me from the old lady, didn't you just spend two taels of silver? It's not as good as a cow..."

"Shut up! Get the wine!" Ma Liu said annoyed.

Cuiyue knew that he was unhappy, how could she be at ease?He has a wife and a son in his family, what else can he expect from him?The status of a concubine?Cuiyue smiled helplessly in her heart, she might as well live as she is now!

Cuiyue went out of the house to get wine in the kitchen.Mama Li was also in the kitchen, seeing her, she hurriedly asked, "Ma Liu didn't get angry with you, did he?"

Cuiyue fetched wine from the jug and said: "I'm not happy anymore, I'm sulking! I know you're kind, but don't talk to him about the nameless thing in the future, he's not comfortable, I sound bad too."

"But you two just go on like this? What are you?"

"Am I living a bad life now? I have food, drink and clothes, and from time to time there is a man who loves me dearly, that's enough."

"Cuiyue..."

"Mother Li," Cuiyue said with a self-deprecating smile across her face, "You don't know what happened to me in the past, but I know it in my heart, it's not easy to live, and it will be as long as I can live , I'm not greedy, but if I'm too greedy, I'll get tired. Anyway, you remember clearly, don't mention your status to him, the child's business, you know?"

Mother Li nodded helplessly and said, "I know, but I always feel that you have been wronged."

"Where do you know where to go? You just know how warm you are." Cuiyue picked up the flagon and turned back to the house.

After lunch, Ma Liu went back to his room and slept for another hour.Cuiyue came back from the shop, woke him up and said, "Aren't you going back to the inn to take a look? Why don't you just sleep with me and get back to sleep? Don't you want to get rid of the goods you brought out sooner?"

Ma Liu turned over and said unhappily: "I know, sleep a little longer."

"Have you said hello to your guys? Don't look for you all over the street, why did you tell them?"

"I didn't say that!" Ma Liu replied angrily.

"Didn't you tell? Didn't tell them where you went? Can't you even make a pretense? You usually come back with good excuses. What's wrong this time?"

"I'm not right anywhere, okay? Hurry up and look at your shop, I'm going to sleep!" Ma Liu covered his head with the quilt and stopped talking to Cuiyue.

Cuiyue stood aside and looked at him with her hips akimbo, then suddenly reached out and lifted the quilt.He sat up suddenly, and asked with displeasure: "Long Cuiyue, what are you doing? Are you going to let your man sleep?"

"Go back to the inn now!"

"why?"

"You are a big living person, and you disappear without saying hello. Aren't your guys worried? At least you have to go back and make a pretense with them, so that they won't be suspicious, so as not to spread the word to your housekeeper later. It feels good to have you in my ears!"

"I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid that Mrs. Cao's family will overthrow my shop. Is this okay? Since we've kept it a secret, we have to keep it a secret..."

"Are you afraid that my tigress will come to settle accounts with you, or is the man waiting to marry after the truth is settled?" Ma Liu became a little unscrupulous when he got angry.

Cuiyue was so angry that her face turned blue, she glared at Ma Liu fiercely and said, "I don't care what you think! Besides, even if a man takes a fancy to me, it's common sense!"

"Long Cuiyue!"

"Why are you yelling? I'm afraid that others will not know that you are in my house! Sixth uncle, please spare me some shame, I still want to be a man in this town!"

"You..." Ma Liu was so angry that he wanted to slap Cuiyue in the face!But he raised his hand, but he was not willing to fight, he pushed Cuiyue away, put on his clothes indiscriminately, and went back to the inn angrily.

Cuiyue breathed a sigh of relief, but the expression on her face was extraordinarily melancholy.Why is she willing to leave Ma Liu?But Ma Liu didn't go and explain clearly, if there was a rumor in the town, I'm afraid the tigress at home would not give Ma Liu a good life.

Not long after Ma Liu left, Lihua came with her two little attendants carrying the goods.Cuiyue quickly regained her composure, and came out to greet them.After inspecting the goods, Cuiyue asked, "Do you want cash or bank notes?"

Lihua thought for a while and said: "50 taels in cash, and the rest will be given to the bank note, it's convenient."

Cuiyue went back to the backyard to get a bag of silver and two silver tickets and handed them to Lihua, then said: "If you take this thing to the city and it sells well, I'm afraid you have to go to the town to deliver more goods." That’s right. If you come to your village every three to five months as usual, I’m afraid the stock will be sold out, and this business will be difficult to do, you should understand?”

Lihua nodded and said, "I understand that. If the sales are good, I'll visit once a month, and I'm sure I won't embarrass you."

Cuiyue smiled and said: "You are so easy to talk, and this business is also done with ease. We met for the first time, and hit it off again. If you don't mind, how about I prepare two small dishes and treat you to two drinks in the evening?"

"If someone invites you to dinner, I naturally won't dislike it, but I'm afraid to trouble you."

"Anyway, don't I have to eat at night? It's just two extra dishes, no trouble, I just don't know if you're doing it or not."

"You're too polite, that's fine, I'll go talk to my man and come back later."

"Okay, I'll close early today, and I've prepared food and drinks for you. Let's have a good chat tonight. By the way, what's your man's name?"

Hearing this sentence, Lihua couldn't help thinking of Qingyi.I reported Xie Manting three words at the beginning, and my neck almost broke. Looking back, it's really creepy!But seeing Cuiyue being so gentle, she said with confidence: "His name is Xie Manting. If you are familiar with Ma Liu, you should know him." , "I've heard, I heard that you are good at skills, but you are married to a good man."
