He and Aling left Qi's house together. They came on foot, so they didn't have to crowd in with other people who were waiting for the carriage. They walked out the door and turned into the alley and left, so they didn't have to be crowded.
Not long after I entered the alley, someone shouted from behind, "Miss Song!"
Song Qiu turned around when he heard the sound and saw a lady wearing a woolen blue jacket chasing after her with a smile on her face.
She didn't know this lady, but she looked familiar. She must have seen her at a banquet at Qi's house just now, so she looked familiar.
Out of politeness, she stood still and waited for someone to catch up, "This lady called me for something?"
Mrs. Mao caught up with her in a few steps and said with a smile: "Miss Song will be in town tomorrow? I really like the longevity peach you just saw earlier. It just so happens that my sister-in-law's father is going to celebrate his birthday soon. I'll tell you when I go back.
She heard that she must also want to order this longevity peach. If Miss Song is in town tomorrow, I will bring her to talk to you?"
She was in town yesterday and today. She couldn't go back and come back tomorrow. Running around would be troublesome.
He said, "So that's what happened. I'm not in town often, and I probably won't be here tomorrow. Madam, if your natal sister-in-law needs it, just go to the dessert shop and make a reservation. There's always someone there."
This shop is not everything to her. She has not been in the shop every day since it opened. Everyone knows this and should understand it.
Song Qiu thought that he had said this, and the wife agreed that she would just ask her sister-in-law to go to the shop by herself tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, she said: "Miss Song is not going to the shop tomorrow? Then when will you come to town? I'd better wait until you come to town and then go to the shop to talk to you."
Just book a Shoudao, do you have to talk to her?
Song Qiu was very puzzled and said: "It will probably take two or three days before I can go to town."
When Master Mao heard this, he couldn't help but said, "It's been two or three days. Miss Song, are you really not going to the town tomorrow?"
Listening to this, it seems like he really wants her to come to town.
Song Qiu felt strange, but didn't think much about it at the moment.
The customer comes first, so she had to talk to her. I guess she wanted to ask her if she had any requirements for the longevity peach that she wanted to make?
It won't be a big deal to come to town tomorrow.
I plan to come to town in two days to buy some ceramics and the like, so come tomorrow.
After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll come to town tomorrow morning. Then, madam, please bring your sister-in-law over."
Mao immediately laughed and said, "Okay! It's settled then!"
…
If the carriage is still in the shop, if you want to go back to the village, you have to go to the shop to fetch the carriage.
After going to the shop, Song Qiu first told Yang Dalian one by one the people who had just ordered longevity peaches with her at Qi's house, the time and style, etc., so that he could remember them clearly to avoid making mistakes and delaying other people's business.
.
When Yang Dalian saw that Shoudao business came to his door so quickly, he did not dare to be careless. He memorized it carefully, saying that there would be no mistake.
I drove the carriage and left the shop. On my way out of the town, I happened to pass by Wu Ji Mi Shop.
Song Qiu thought that the car was empty, so he planned to buy more rice and noodles and take it back.
Shopkeeper Wu, who had just entered the shop and also went to Qi's house to drink birthday wine, saw her and said enthusiastically: "Song Xiaodong, I wanted to talk to you just now, but there were so many people talking to you first.
I'm busy at home again, so I'll come back first."
"You happen to be here again, so I'll just talk to you."
After hearing what he said, Song Qiu didn't rush to ask the waiter to load the rice. He first listened to what he wanted to say.
"Shopkeeper Wu, what do you want to tell me?"
Shopkeeper Wu said: "I heard that your new house has been completed? I don't know when you will hold a wedding reception? If you have booked a date, you have to send me an invitation!"
He didn't say it casually.
Song Xiaodong's family bought glutinous rice from him before the Dragon Boat Festival last year. Since then, many rice, flour, grain and oil people have been taking care of business with him this year.
Although he also took care of the business of Song Xiaodong's dessert shop.
But all in all, Song Xiaodong is still a big customer of his shop.
For such a big customer, if something happened at home, of course he would join in the fun.
If there are human connections, the business will last longer.
Moreover, he had just seen Song Xiaodong's family handing an invitation to Shopkeeper Qi. The two families were starting to move around, and he couldn't fall behind others here!
When Song Qiu heard about this, he didn't hesitate immediately and took out an invitation and handed it over with a smile.
"We're going to hold a warm-house dinner on the 16th, and I'm planning to send you an invitation to Shopkeeper Wu!"
She had prepared several invitations, just for the occasion, but now Shopkeeper Wu took the initiative to ask, and it would be inappropriate for her not to give them invitations, right?
Besides, I have been dealing with Shopkeeper Wu for a year, and I am indeed quite familiar with him.
Shopkeeper Wu looked at the invitation and couldn't help laughing when he heard Song Qiu's words, "Sixteen, right? Dele! I will definitely come that day!"
He was still thinking that if he didn't get an invitation, he would shamelessly come to visit him that day.
It's naturally better to get an invitation here.
When things were over, he asked Song Qiulai what he wanted to buy.
Song Qiu immediately asked the waiter to pack two hundred kilograms of rice and fifty kilograms of white flour, plus some rapeseed oil and soybean oil, and load them into the carriage.
Once these things were loaded, it was almost impossible to sit in the carriage. Song Qiu and Aling sat on the carriage seats together and drove the carriage out of the town and back to the village.
It takes an hour to return to the village by mule cart, but the horse-drawn carriage is much faster and can be reached in just over half an hour.
The time spent on the road is much less than before.
Therefore, it is convenient to have a car for this trip.
Song Qiu looked at the big brown horse that had been coming to his house for more than half a year, thinking that he would be traveling far away in a few days, and it seemed inconvenient to have just such a carriage.
Of the two mule carts, one must be kept at the inn, and the other must be kept at home.
Therefore, it is necessary to purchase more carriages and horses.
There is no need for a mule-drawn carriage, as a horse-drawn carriage is more convenient and faster.
Buy two more horses?
Song Qiu thought that it would be troublesome to go to Dongling County again, so he would go directly to Shunyang County to buy it.
After passing Baishui Town, we will reach Shunyang County two towns further, so we have to squeeze in first.
In this way, there is no need to go to Tangling County again.
The official road was smooth and easy to walk on, and the horses ran very fast. It didn't take long for them to reach home.
Du Chuanfu and others who were busy in the house saw the girl coming back and hurriedly came out to help her pull the cart and move things.
Song Qiu went to town early yesterday. When he came back, he naturally wanted to see how the house was decorated.
Tian Ping and others have been busy for a few days, and the planting and planning of the green plants are almost complete.
Zou and Lanyi also sewed quilt covers and bed covers and put them on.
The house already looks like what it is, and you can move in immediately.
Now there are still some porcelain ornaments to decorate the facade. This is a small matter. I can just buy it and put it on display tomorrow.
All in all, it's just a matter of time before we can move in and live in the warm house.
