Chapter two hundred and eighty half teapot shop
It was soon time for lunch. Tian Ruxiang looked at the delicious food on a large table and swallowed her saliva unconsciously, but she didn't dare to move her chopsticks and couldn't help but look at Tian Ruyue.
Unexpectedly, Tian Ruyue stood up and took the ginseng soup from one of the maids and said, "You eat first, I will go and serve my husband for food first."
"Isn't there a maid? Why do you ask you to serve him personally?" Tian Ruxiang asked in confusion. Out of the corner of her eyes, she swept towards Bai Shuang who was standing still.
Tian Ruyue glanced at her deeply. "I like to serve her in person."
Tian Duofu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly asked, "The food is cold after you have fed it. Can't you wait until you have finished feeding it?"
Tian Ruyue smiled at Tian Duofu: "Look soon, you can eat it first." He brought the ginseng soup into the inner room, sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and pinched Wei Jin's arm, "Wait while there is no one, hurry up and drink it."
Wei Jin opened his eyes and sat up and took the ginseng soup.
Tian Ruyue looked at him and asked suddenly, "You have no nosebleed when you drink ginseng soup every day. Why would I eat white rice porridge with them tomorrow?"
Wei Jin finished drinking a few sips and returned the empty bowl to Tian Ruyue to shake her head, "I need ginseng to live with my life at the very level of 'severity'." But I was very happy in my heart, my wife knew how to feel sorry for him.
"It's up to you." Tian Ruyue stood up with an empty bowl, "I'll take my younger brother and sister out for a walk in the afternoon, and you will continue to lie on your own." She turned around and walked out.
After lunch, clean up the dishes.
Tian Ruxiang looked at Tian Ruyue and suddenly asked, "Sister, I have never met my brother-in-law yet. Can he lie in the inner room? Can we go and have a look?"
"What's the point of not waking up?" Tian Ruyue refused, "I'll introduce you to you when he wakes up." He stood up, "I'll take you to the streets in the afternoon, will you go?"
"Go and go!" Tian Ruxiang responded happily.
This time Tian Ruyue brought only Bai Shuang with her, but the guards still brought four, and the brother and sister took a carriage together.
Tian Ruxiang lifted the curtain and saw four guards riding on high-headed horses, protecting them around the carriage. She was so excited.
After getting off the carriage, Tian Ruyue handed Tian Duofu a bag of silver given by Mrs. Lian, "Brother, take them around, I will go to the pawn shop and take a look. When you finish shopping, go there to find me."
Tian Duofu once accompanied Tian Ruyue to the pawn shop, and nodded and left with Tian Ruxiang and Tian Duocai.
Tian Ruyue took Bai Shuang to the pawnshop. She used to be a thing, but this time she went there as the owner and received warm hospitality from Manager Yu and the clerk.
When the shopkeeper Yu learned that the Wei family gave the pawnshop to Tian Ruyue, hesitantly asked: "How does the young lady plan to run this pawnshop?"
Tian Ruyue stood in the center to look at the entire pawnshop. Only the counters used in the east were used as pawnshop. The other three walls were empty, so she pointed to the empty walls and said, "Don't worry, shopkeeper, I won't interfere in your pawnshop business, I only want these walls."
Seeing that the shopkeeper was puzzled, he asked him for paper and pen. While drawing a floor plan, he explained: "The counter of your pawnshop was not moving. A hollow carved wooden door was built in the middle to separate it. The walls on the three sides were painted again with white [River Crab].
Based on the length, width and height of the wall, I plan to ask a carpenter to create three treasure shelves that can be used to hold the teapots and sculptures I made. A set of tables, chairs and benches for drinking tea are placed in front.
Oh, by the way, I will give me two more rooms in the backyard, one of which is for my elder brother to live in, and the other one is for me to make pots and use."
Manager Yu originally thought that the pawn shop would no longer exist, but saw that she did not move the pawn shop at all, but used the other half of the empty place, so he nodded and responded on the spot and suggested: "I know a carpenter with superb skills. You can leave the treasure rack for me to do. As for the money, you don't have to worry about it. Now that this pawn shop belongs to you, you will leave the account." After that, he asked the friend to get the account book for her to see.
Tian Ruyue thought about it and agreed, but refused to read the account book, "I don't want to use it, but I don't doubt the employer. Since the Wei family uses you, I naturally believe you. However, you can send the income from this pawnshop to the Wei Mansion as usual, and there is no need to read it for me."
Manager Yu was surprised, "But... Isn't the pawnshop yours now owned?"
Bai Shuang, who was standing beside her, also stared at Tian Ruyue in surprise.
Tian Ruyue looked around with a smile, "I am already very satisfied with having to open a teapot shop for half a shop. Wei's family has a big business and there are too many places to use money. How to do it in the past will be the same in the future."
Manager Yu, who had only acted according to the rules, looked at Tian Ruyue again and became awe-inspiring, and repeatedly promised that he would do the things as she told him.
"Thank you for your hard work." Tian Ruyue said that, with Bai Shuang and the guards left.
Because the time was still short, Tian Duofu and others had not waited for him, Tian Ruyue was shopping and looking for people, and there were nothing more than shops such as Silver House and Clothing.
Finally, Tian Duofu soup was found in front of a jewelry shop, but found that Tian Ruxiang had an argument with Tian Duofu again.
When Tian Ruyue walked over, she heard it. It turned out that Tian Ruxiang had a fancy to a pair of bracelets. Tian Duofu thought it was expensive and he was unwilling to pay the money.
Seeing Tian Ruxiang aggressively criticizing Tian Duofu, but Tian Duofu didn't say a word. Tian Ruyue walked over and stared at Tian Ruxiang with sharp eyes.
Tian Ruxiang instantly sued him, "Sister, my brother is too stingy. I like a pair of bracelets but I don't have much money, but he refused to buy them, which made me laughed at by other female customers. You might as well give me the money and I will buy it myself."
"Haha!" Tian Ruyue sneered twice, "I don't have a few taels of silver, right? Then how much can you earn in a month?"
Tian Ruxiang shrank her neck and was instantly afraid to speak, but her eyes glared at the ground with resentment.
However, Tian Duofu reached out and pulled Tian Ruyue, asking her not to teach Tian Ruxiang a lesson outside.
Tian Ruyue turned her head and looked at him, "Brother, how much money did they spend?"
Tian Duofu glanced at Tian Ruxiang who was slowly moving away, and then replied: "Xiang'er bought a silver pendant of one or two taels, a silver hairpin of one hundred and fifty cents, a silver bracelet of one hundred and twenty cents, a thirty cents purse of one hundred and twenty cents, and a handkerchief of twenty cents."
With the numbers of Tian Duo’s blessings coming out, Tian Ruxiang’s head drooped lower and lower, but the resentment in her eyes became deeper and deeper. She spent less than two taels of silver in total! Why did she lose face in front of the servants!
Tian Ruyue raised her eyebrows after hearing this.
It took less than two taels of silver in total, and the elder brother was really a bit stingy in the strict control.
Seeing Tian Duocai holding candied haws in his left hand and meat buns in his right hand, he reached out to rub his head and asked Tian Duofu: "How much did you spend?"
