"I really didn't expect it! It was my poor eyesight that offended little master. Your fish is the best I have ever eaten! I take back the disrespectful words just now." Pot catfish received a good impression, and there was no reason to be aggressive, and said to the shopkeeper, "I don't care about this little master today, I hope I can eat such delicious food next time I come here .”

The scarred man and his party were sent away, and some spectators who watched the fun were also gone. Now only the shopkeeper, Bai Shui and others are left in Yipinzhai.

"Little brother, why do you want to come to my place to be a chef?" Shopkeeper Liu finally expressed his thoughts, only to see the man opposite said nothing, "Five taels of silver a month."

"I'm not looking for a job, I just happened to meet something like this."

"It's impossible for me to give up this dish and bury it in the countryside. Let's talk about a price. How much do you pay for me?"

Shopkeeper Liu's face was a bit serious, as if he was facing a difficult problem, but Bai Shui remained calm and unhurried as always, making Lu Yu beside him anxious.

"Otherwise, I'll sell you the recipe! I will continue to sell it to you in the future. I know more than this one dish. What do you think?"

"Success! I'll buy your recipe today for five taels of silver." Shopkeeper Liu stroked his gray goatee, thinking in his mind that since he couldn't recruit anyone, he bought his recipe so he could explain to the boss. no.

"20 taels, otherwise I won't sell it."

"What are you talking about? It's too expensive. Twenty taels is not a small amount. You're asking a lot for this price."

"alright, that's fine."

Bai Shui turned around and was about to take Lu Yu away, but he was stopped by shopkeeper Liu when he had not walked a few steps, and the man's voice was a little helpless.

"It's not as good as 15 taels."

"18 taels, this is my final bottom line." Bai Shui looked impatient.

"Okay, it's only 18 taels, but you have to promise me that you will only sell me recipes for Yipinzhai in the future."

"no problem."

After collecting the money and leaving Yipinzhai, Bai Shui handed the money to Lu Yu, and then found that Lu Yu's hands holding the package were trembling, and joked with a smile, "What's wrong with you? Are you hungry?"

"No." Lu Yu paused for a moment, and then secretly said to Bai Shui, "This is the first time I have taken so much money, so I am a little nervous."

Lu Yu's cautious demeanor, as well as the words behind that, really captivated Bai Shui, his eyes were bent with a smile, and the words on his mouth were much gentler, "I will make more money in the future, you must at least practice Good for your guts."

"Aren't I afraid of being stolen!"

"What is written on your whole face now is, [I have money in my arms.]" Seeing that Lu Yu stopped talking, Bai Shui shifted his gaze to the market which was almost noon.

There is always a shortage of people in the market. The bustling crowd almost dispersed Bai Shui and Lu Yu. Finally, when Bai Shui wanted to turn around and lead Lu Yu, he found that Lu Yu had already started to pull the corner of his clothes. He still didn't look at him, but followed him stubbornly. This feeling was like a swan feather brushing back and forth on the tip of his heart, pulling the corners of his mouth and slowing down to observe the sophistication of the world here.

"Are you hungry? I think the food is good, do you like it?" Bai Shui pointed to a time-honored pastry shop in front of them, and was about to go in, but was blocked by Lu Yu.

"Wait first." Lu Yu tightly held the package, looked around with round eyes, and said to Bai Shui, "The things in this shop are very expensive."

"Hey, don't think about it so much. I've been shopping for a long time and I feel that the pastries in this shop look pleasing. You must have never eaten them like that. Why don't you try something new." This lu yu is really interesting, so rich This is the first time he has seen people, life is so short, what is the purpose of making money?Isn't it just for instant gratification?

"Boss, give me half a catty of mung bean cake, chestnut cake, and glutinous rice cake."

"Wait, young master, what are you doing!" Why are you such a prodigal!

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Lu Yu was halfway through speaking, Bai Shui naturally stepped forward to ask.

It's just that the luyu began to hesitate because of Bai Shui's gaze, "Otherwise, let's buy two taels each! Half a catty is a lot, and it's still hot today." As long as it's enough for Bai Shui to eat alone, it's bad to buy so much What a pity.

"What's the matter, boss, you continue to weigh." Bai Shui said to the boss who stopped his movements because of Lu Yu's sudden words, "Boss will help us wrap up well, we will take an old bullock cart soon, I am afraid it will be bumpy .”

After this little episode, Lu Yu followed behind Bai Shui a little sluggishly, but when passing by the grain store, he grabbed Bai Shui's clothes again, which meant he had something to say.

"Buy polished rice!"

"Okay, okay, you have a deep obsession with this thing. Do you like rice? But to be honest, the black-faced steamed buns and the multigrain pancakes are really unpalatable."

Lu Yu knew it all at a glance, with a face full of "I understand", and Bai Shui went to the grain store, bought a small sack of polished rice and a little white flour, and bought a small jar of sweet-scented osmanthus wine on the way, which was used as a A thank you gift to Uncle Liu.

Lu Yu was always worried about the money in his arms, and after buying a bolt of black cotton cloth in Baishui, he didn't give in and called home.In fact, it's not that he is stingy, because he remembered what Bai Shui said to him from just now, and he just entrusted himself with the heavy responsibility of managing money. Then, thinking about the future life, it is inevitable to be entangled.

"You two, you came back on time. I just bought some clothing materials for my mother-in-law." Uncle Liu looked at the large and small bags in Bai Shui and Lu Yu's hands and shoulders, and said, "This time Lu Yu's woodcarving It sold a lot of money, and you two look so happy, it's different from when you came here in the morning."

"How can I buy so much money for my woodcarvings? My husband earned the money. My little money alone is not enough to buy these things." Lu Yu wanted to let others know these things, all thanks to Bai Shui's efforts Earned, it is inevitable that there will be more conversations for a while.

Hearing this, Uncle Liu took a high look at the fair young man in front of him, and beckoned the two to get on the bullock cart and set off home.

"What kind of job did Bai Shui find in the town?"

"No, I just sold some things in my mind in the town." Bai Shui didn't want to reveal more, not because he couldn't trust Uncle Liu who helped him on his way, but because he didn't want too many people involved in his life with Lu Yu. In the past few days with Lu Yu, he was finally able to see that the face that had been suffering before had become a little angry. This feeling was like the first time that the company he ran had made a profit on his own.

"It's good to be able to study! You can make money wherever you go, unlike us country people who are dumbfounded once they leave the land."

"Uncle Liu, look at what you said. If the whole country didn't have us peasants farming and supplying food, it wouldn't starve to death." Bai Shui glanced at Lu Yu who was still quietly watching the scenery in the car.

"Hahahaha! Good boy, you are the only one who can say that you and Lu Yu are a perfect match. This little Lu Yu has never liked to talk since he was a child, but he has found a partner who can speak like you. This is probably the picture book. It’s a good match as mentioned above.” Uncle Liu was amused by Bai Shui’s words, and then said, “Bai Shui, you are not the same as when you first came here. It’s good to live like this now, don’t I care too much about other people's gossip, there are so many men who live together."

After Uncle Liu finished speaking, Bai Shui suddenly felt Lu Yu's gaze, afraid that Lu Yu would be embarrassed, so he pretended not to notice and chatted with Uncle Liu without saying a word.

"What do I care about, this life is just to find someone to live with, Lu Yu is very good." Although he usually talks less, he really lives with himself without any falsehood.

"That's good. You don't know how many ugly things Wang Zhaodi in the village said on the day you and Lu Yu got married. I can't say too much here. I'm afraid that the woman will come and lie to me if she finds out. You two just have to be good." Live your life away from that Wang Zhaodi." Uncle Liu was still telling Bai Shui and Lu Yu when he got home, and Bai Shui complied with a good temper.

"What is this for?" Uncle Liu refused the sweet-scented osmanthus wine that Bai Shui handed over. Although the wine was good, he couldn't cheat the two children's money against his conscience, and kept waving his hands to refuse.

"Hurry up, Uncle Liu, you help us two juniors so much, it's time for us to express our gratitude. I heard Lu Yu say that you like to drink, so I'll bring you a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine." Bai Shui saw Uncle Liu Still wanting to refuse, Fu said again, "Don't refuse the two of us anymore, this is outside your house so that others will gossip, take it quickly, otherwise how can we two juniors have the nerve to ask you for help in the future?"

Uncle Liu looked at the small road, which was not very wide. There were more and more villagers, and because of Bai Shui's loud voice, they all looked this way. What was even more frightening was that the village gossip Wang Zhaodi and her iron rooster husband came here. Bian came, so frightened that he had no choice but to accept the sweet-scented osmanthus wine that Bai Shui handed over, and beckoned the two of them to hide in the yard, but Bai Shui and Lu Yu refused, so they had no choice but to give up.

"Why is Uncle Liu in such a hurry, but what is the emergency? And why do you want us to hide behind?"

"Look at the two people in front of you. One is my uncle and the other is my uncle. You should have met that uncle before."

Bai Shui followed Lu Yu's words, and looked at the two people who were slowly walking towards them. The man Lu Yu called his uncle was short, with a small head and pointed chin, short eyes, and a mouth that grew behind his ears. It seems that it is not a good thing to deal with.And next to the man is Wang Zhaodi, who is short and short, and Bai Shui has seen her before. Seeing her short, she speaks with a loud voice. In the village, she said that she was second, and no one dared to admit that she was first. Lu Yu called over.
