Four hundred and ninetieth chapters have eyes but no beads
Not a rich slave but a rich man?
Fang Qing was completely dumbfounded, and his face suddenly turned uglier than a pot helmet. He wanted to accuse Fourth Master Hua of talking nonsense and trying to excuse others, but he didn't expect Fourth Master Hua to say sincerely: "That Li San
When I heard that the person I let the dog scare turned out to be an honored guest from Zhang Yuan, I was immediately dumbfounded, and then begged me to come to the door in person to apologize, but now he is already outside the door."
Hearing this, Song Juren immediately forgot that he had just lost face in front of Fourth Master Hua, a man who recognized him, and laughed directly and said: "Let me just say, hahahaha, he is a well-known wealthy family in Yezi Hutong, from a wealthy family.
There is a huge difference between me and him!"
Seeing that Fang Qing's face was already flushed, Zhang Shou winked at Xiaohuahua. Seeing this clever young man, he immediately came up and invited Fang Qing and Song Juren into the next room with a smile on his face.
He smiled at Fourth Master Hua and said, "Thank you, Fourth Master Hua, for helping the two of them out of trouble earlier. Ah Liu, go and invite Li San'er in person. Remember, be polite."
Hearing the words "be polite", when Xiaohuahua settled them down and went out from the second room, Song Juren and Fang Qing in the back room all felt uncomfortable, and they unexpectedly occupied the gaps on both sides of the door curtain and looked out.
Peeping. But then the two of them realized that they were in sync with each other, and they glared at each other, but in the end they didn't dare to say anything.
Zhang Shou and Mr. Hua chatted casually for a while. Not long after, the study door was pushed open again, and soon after, Ah Liu led a man in bright clothes in. Zhang Shou understood at the first glance.
Why does Fang Qing keep saying that she is a slave of a wealthy family?
Because this man is obviously quite skinny, but his silk and satin clothes are made very wide, so he is like a clothes hanger, with the clothes hanging on it fluttering. In addition, no matter how he looks, he looks like a wizened man with a lot of suffering and hatred.
It seems that the word "rich" cannot be combined with this honor.
Not only that, as soon as the person entered the door, he quickly came up, and then he knelt down in fear and was about to bow down. Fortunately, the little peanut who had already come out of the second room had a clever mind, quick eyesight and quick hands. He rushed up and stopped the foreigner who was too polite.
Wealthy households in the city.
While dragging the person up, Xiao Huahua said: "This is Mr. Li, my young master doesn't like people to be polite."
"Don't dare, don't dare, Mr. Li San, that's what people outside are saying. I just have a little spare money, how dare I be called this." Li San'er wanted to kowtow and admit his mistake as soon as he came up, but he was stopped by others.
He was so frightened that he could only explain incessantly. When he saw Zhang Shouzheng sitting there, whom he had only seen once from a distance on the street, smiling and nodding to him, he felt relieved a little.
Since they made it clear that they didn't want him to kowtow, he could only bow and say: "Dr. Zhang, you don't care about the villain's faults. The villain has no hobbies except raising dogs. That big black dog has been following the villain for seven or eight years, and the most...
Zhongyong is usually a little noisy, but the neighbors have always been more tolerant because they have saved people in the past, are most vigilant in the middle of the night, and have scared away thieves several times."
At this point, when Zhang Shou smiled and said nothing, he looked around to find the two victims today. When he found that they were not here, he said cautiously: "Dahei was sick a few days ago. It's so easy to get sick."
It was healed and came out, so I kept shouting when I was happy. The neighbors are used to it, but there are a lot of people in the outer city today, and people who don't know it will inevitably be frightened."
"The little guy was confused for a moment. He laughed twice when he saw the excitement, not wanting the child to fall down and arouse people's anger. In fact, Dahei is the most obedient. He only barks twice fiercely and only bites evil people.
Never bite a nice guy!"
Song Ju and Fang Qing in the back room were almost furious. They were evil people, not good people, so they were chased and bitten by dogs. They were so embarrassed that one person's clothes were torn and the other person lost his shoes?
Li San'er realized that what he had just said was a little lingual, and he hurriedly swore again: "The villain is an old resident of Yezi Hutong. If you don't believe it, you can ask someone. Let alone our alley, there are several nearby ones."
Everyone in the alley knows this. Even though he looks a little shabby, he is really a good person, and his little wealth was earned through regular business."
He straightened his chest and spoke confidently.
"The villain is just angry for a moment that someone scolded a wealthy family's slave... The villain has nothing to do with the wealthy family. This money is not handed down from the ancestors. It is the family property that the villain has earned through hard work! The villain once used to
I worked as a tinsmith who traveled around the streets, and by chance I helped Master Wan Yuanbao. Later, when Master Wan became prosperous, he lent the villain several hundred dollars of his capital."
"The villain took over an under-performing store on Qianmen Street and opened a gold and silver shop. Because the villain's price was fair, he hired two young but capable jewelry craftsmen. The business was booming, barely enough.
The last word "rich"
Hearing this, Song Juren immediately turned his head to look at Fang Qing, his eyes full of ridicule. Although Fang Qing's mouth was trembling, he gritted his teeth and said nothing. Seeing this scene, Song Juren winced slightly.
Baring his teeth, he reached out and scratched his own face. This humiliating behavior between children immediately angered Fang Qing, but just when he wanted to open his mouth, he heard Zhang Shou speak from outside.
"So that's what happened. If it's true, then you are certainly at fault, but others shouldn't be rude." Zhang Shou did not doubt Li San'er's words, because of Fourth Master Hua's character, he was determined to find out.
The details of a person are brought here again, and these situations are the easiest to inquire about.
Li San'er didn't expect Zhang Shou to be so reasonable, and his original apprehension suddenly turned into gratitude, and he quickly bowed again.
"Thank you, Dr. Zhang, for your generosity! I suffered too much in my early years and lived through too many hard times, so I like to wear nice clothes to show off. The same is true for my big gold teeth, and I almost suffered for this.
I was kidnapped by someone, but luckily I had Da Hei as my bodyguard... So when I heard someone scolding someone for being a slave of a wealthy family, being a bully for taking advantage of others, etc., I got very angry."
"I would like to apologize to the two young masters in your house. Especially one of them. He should have been implicated by his companions, but after all, Dahei didn't recognize anyone, so he chased him too..."
Hearing this, Zhang Shou couldn't help laughing, and then said calmly: "Although what you said is true, the fierce dogs barking in the street, scaring passers-by, and even scaring children to fall, are completely wrong. If someone pursues it,
, you can go to the Yamen to sue you! Don’t get carried away with your pride, otherwise you will definitely bring shame on yourself. If you don’t want to be scolded for relying on others’ power, you have to stand upright!”
Li San'er's back suddenly started to sweat, and he quickly lowered his waist lower: "The villain knows his fault, no, the villain knows his sin, I will remember it in my heart in the future, and I will never dare to indulge Da Hei again... I will definitely do it when I go out in the future.
Keep it under tight control!"
When Fourth Master Hua saw that Zhang Shou had only given Li San'er a few words of reprimand and was obviously planning not to pursue the issue any further, he couldn't help but think to himself that Zhang Shou's decision to take in Song Juren was indeed just a temporary move, and he had no intention of leaving the home of the richest man in Guangdong.
What did the weird kid get from him?
He knew that the Song family was far away in Guangdong and controlled the sea routes. He had no such urgent need to make friends with the dignitaries of the day. Therefore, although he was happy to see Song Juren taking refuge in Zhang Yuan and fighting with the Song family, he also wanted to send one or two of his outstanding children to Zhang Yuan.
Under the longevity gate.
Unlike those Confucian scholars who are well versed in poetry and literature, in a business family like the Hua family, proficiency in arithmetic is often a necessary skill for outstanding children, so he is confident enough to be able to select a suitable candidate in the near future.
Therefore, although Zhu Ying had set such cooperation conditions for him before, he did not intend to make an argument about it now.
On the contrary, when he saw Zhang Shou winking at the little peanut beside him, and then someone came down and took Li Saner down with a smile, he quickly said: "Dr. Zhang, I don't know whether the seeds I gave you before will be useful."
?"
What about the seeds that Fourth Master Hua sent as a birthday gift? He asked Xiao Huahua to send the seeds to Guantao and his senior brothers?
Zhang Shou was stunned for a moment, and then thought to himself that because he had missed all the planting seasons recently, he had almost forgotten about this one...
After all, because Jiuzhangtang was recruiting new people and had a lot of connections with American crops, he didn't pay much attention to Fourth Master Hua's gift for a while. However, just when he was trying to find a reason to excuse it, Fourth Master Hua was next
Those words moved his heart.
"When Young Master Song first participated in the imperial chef selection preliminary round, it is said that he once made a taro ball? The cassava flour in it should be cassava from overseas. It is a pity that there are no cassava seeds in my bag of seeds. After all,
, there are no maritime merchants in Suzhou, so what I got was given to me by Mr. Song’s uncle because I had a good relationship with the Song family in Guangdong in the past."
Although Zhang Shou had previously expressed mixed emotions because of Song Juren's taro balls, he asked Song Juren afterwards and was told that the cassava flour was obtained through the housekeeper at home. As for the method of making taro balls, it came from the so-called "Song Juren" which he bought frugally and at a high price.
"Thirteen Secret Recipes of Taizu's Sugar Water" - he was once shocked by this name - so he didn't have much theory.
But at that time, he was completely convinced that Lao Xianyu’s ship was probably not the first ship to cross the ocean to the Americas. There were definitely other people who had been to the Americas. Otherwise, how could they have brought back something native to South America that is known as the world’s first ship?
Cassava, one of the three major potatoes?
But when Fourth Master Hua said this, he knew that someone was quietly hinting that if he wanted overseas seeds, he should go to the Song family. Therefore, he nodded happily and said with a smile: "In that case, some of the inventory on hand by Mr. Song has been
I'm about to get in trouble, it seems I should look for his elders, otherwise even if he really becomes the royal chef, it will be hard for a woman to make a meal without straw."
"Dr. Zhang, please stop making fun of me."
Seeing that Li San'er with the gold teeth was gone, Song Juren finally got out from behind the curtain of the back room. He was always very shameless, and anyway, Fourth Master Hua had just seen his embarrassed appearance.
At this time, he didn't think that being disheveled was a thing. Instead, as soon as he came out, he begged Fourth Master Hua to help him go to his uncle to get raw materials.
But Fang Qing, who also came out silently, could not be as nonchalant as Song Juren.
He only recognized clothes and not people. In the past, he looked down on this kind of behavior the most. But as soon as he entered the capital, he made this mistake again and again. Even if others didn't tell him, he himself felt that he was as stupid as a pig's head. Therefore.
, seeing that Fourth Master Hua was talking to Zhang Shou about a topic that he didn't know much about, he just hesitated slightly and finally walked out.
When Song Juren saw it, he was about to open his mouth and call him back, but he changed his mind and finally held it back. Others said he had a mean mouth, and Fang's mouth was several times meaner than his.
more than!
When Fang Qinggao, who was still disheveled, came to the gate of Zhangyuan with one foot high and one foot low, he saw Jinya Li San'er going out. I don't know where the impulse came from, but he suddenly shouted sharply: "
Stop right here!"
The little peanut who was giving it away turned his head and recognized Fang Qing, and immediately screamed inwardly. He was already familiar with Song Juren, and knew that he was a very interesting and easy-going person, not to mention a son of a rich family and a young Juren.
With his airs, he can hang out with anyone, including the servant, without any scruples. But Fang Qing is different... He always has a rigid face, as if someone owes him eight hundred dollars!
He had also heard the ins and outs of what had happened just now, and was immediately despised by Fang Qing for being so narrow-minded that he chased her out. Before Li San'er could react, he simply stood in front of the person.
"Young Master Fang still wants to ask Mr. Li San for his crimes?"
"I..." Fang Qing was speechless for a moment, but then he gritted his teeth and said, "I just want to make sure that it is what he said! If it is true as he said, he was not domineering in the past, I am willing to apologize to him.
!But if he lied to me..."
Before he could finish what he said, Li San'er finally reacted and immediately slapped his chest and said: "Okay, come with me out of the city and ask whatever you want..."
"No need!" Just at this time, An Lu came in from the door dragging a lame leg. He took a look at Fang Qing and said, "The dog raised by Li San'er barked on the street and scared passers-by. Mr. Fang scolded him in the street.
As a result, I happened to witness the scene of being chased by dogs, but I couldn't catch up with you because I was lame, so I asked the neighbors to confirm Li San'er's personality."
Seeing Fang Qing's eyes change and staring at him, Anlu said calmly: "This dog is very famous near Ye Zi Hutong. Although it is ferocious and barks loudly, it is docile and quite spiritual most of the time.
, it has bitten thieves, bitten robbers, and even bitten flower gangsters who kidnapped children. It can be regarded as a dog with meritorious service in guarding its neighbors."
"As for Li San'er, he just likes to show off a little. He has never done anything wrong. When others are in trouble, he will pay two cents to help others. But when he meets a beggar, he never gives up a dime. His most common saying is, help people in need but don't help the poor.
But he is not evil, but rather a kind person. Mr. Fang, you are too impatient this time."
In such a short period of time, others found out about the nature of himself and his dog, and even his catchphrases. Instead of feeling relieved, Li Saner felt filled with fear. What made him even more unexpected was that
, Fang Qing stared at him for a long time, and finally took a step back and bowed deeply to the ground.
