[Red Chamber] When I became Grandma Liu
Chapter 45
Liu Cui never imagined that one day she would sit in such a resplendent (cheesy) living room and listen to a boring middle-aged greasy man talking in detail, describing in detail his fertile land, wife and concubine...
Liu Cui only felt a double blow to her body and mind, and she didn't listen to this staff bragging or showing off...
"Well, Mr. Du, let's talk about the education of the two children." Liu Cui interrupted aloud, she couldn't bear it anymore, Liu Cui's short life must not be wasted on such a long matter.
"What's the education problem?" Mr. Du smacked his lips, seeming a little dissatisfied with being interrupted, but seeing that he, the only listener, was still dedicated, he took the time to reply, "I'll continue talking about my eighth wife. It's a thrilling story."
After all, I still want to continue.
Liu Cui interrupted loudly, succinctly: "Your son hit my grandson, I want him to apologize to my grandson."
"Slapped your grandson, come, let me see where it was hit?" Du Yuanwai was very interested, and walked to the dog's side with his hands behind his back to see the slap print.
It's a pity that after Du Yuanwai's sea blowing for such a long time, the inconspicuous slap marks on Gou'er's face have gradually faded away, leaving only faint red marks...
Reasonable, unexpected.
Liu Cui: "...Mr. and other students can testify!"
Member Du waved his hands casually: "No need, it's normal for children to fight and fight, don't worry about it."
Liu Cui tried to describe the harm of campus bullying to both parties like Du Yuanwai: "Master Du, but we cannot take this issue lightly! This not only aggravates the inferiority complex and psychological shadow of the abused children, but also encourages the abused children's desire to commit violence. He will go astray and become a playboy."
Member Du was very interested: "And then?"
"Apologize!" Liu Cui said decisively.
"Don't talk about it!" Du Yuanwai was grinning, took a sip of tea, and finally smacked his lips rudely, looking at ease.
Different from Du Yuanwai's leisure, Liu Cui's forehead was bulging at this time, and his fists were clenched tightly, feeling like he wanted to beat up the greasy middle-aged man with a hideous face in front of him.
Moreover, looking at Du Yuanwai's eyes full of smiles, Liu Cui even felt that Du Yuanwai knew what he was here for a long time, so he dragged her to talk about it.
Because of this reaction, it's not the first time that Du Qi bullied his classmates, and it's not the first time that Du Yuanwai was approached by the students' parents...
But the feeling of being tricked is so strong... Liu Cui has never been so humiliated since time travel, this feeling is really too bad!
Probably Liu Cui's reaction pleased Du Yuanwai. Du Yuanwai patted Liu Cui's shoulder and said earnestly: "Madam, I really thought you were interesting so I talked to you so much, but what? An apology is absolutely Impossible, you have to do a good job of your own position! Don't think about these things, live in the moment!"
"Live in the moment" Liu Cui's anger was mixed with some subtleties. For the first time, Liu Cui felt that such a beautiful phrase "live in the moment" was so insulted.
"Yes, live in the moment!" Du Yuanwai straightened his body and taught Liu Cui earnestly, "Look at you, the owner of a small workshop. Then look at me, a thousand hectares of fertile land, and a son who is a master of Juren. Not to mention that my family was in business here, who in the town wouldn’t respect me? Let’s just say that you are a businessman and I am a nobleman, and businessmen are naturally short.”
At the end, Du Yuanwai concluded: "You want my son to apologize to your grandson, it is simply nonsense."
"However, as soon as I saw you, I felt that I had hit it off with you. If you promise to give me [-]% of the shares in your workshop, I will let my son guard your grandson in the private school. If you give me [-]% of the shares, then you The workshop can walk sideways in the town!" Du Yuanwai patted his chest and assured.
Uncle Wu's rouge workshop has been in town for many years, and Yuanwai Du's family are not the only ones who are envious of Uncle Wu's business, but Liu Cuijie got there first.
It's extremely cold outside in winter, how can you stay warm inside?Du Yuanwai was just afraid of the cold and didn't have time to trouble Liu Cui. Now there is no reason not to slaughter the fat sheep that came to his door.
Liu Cui sneered "hehe", no wonder this Du guy started to show off his family connections as soon as he saw him, it turned out that he was here waiting for him.
"Bah, you want my dry stock, in your next life!" Liu Cui slapped the table heavily, and wanted to leave when she got up, giving him the courage to open her mouth for [-]% dry stock, Sister Feng is not as dark as he is!
Member Du got up and stopped him, and by the way gave an ultimatum: "Don't look at the old lady, your business is booming, but look at the old lady's age, I will give the old lady a piece of advice: the people do not fight with the government. You must know that my family has a juren , that is, half of the court officials."
Humph!
"I do business with dignity and innocence. I'm afraid that some officials, you young foxes, fake tigers, and prestige are the frogs at the bottom of the well. You really think you are the king of heaven." Liu Cui sneered.It's really a frog in a well, and it's rare for everyone.I have even seen Tanhua rescued before, if you have the ability, go and call the emperor
"Since the founding of our country, we have respected officials and lowly merchants. No matter how big this businessman is, unless he becomes an imperial merchant, he will be inferior to others. The old lady really doesn't need to make my Qi'er apologize. It is his blessing that Qi'er bullied this kid. In the future, your grandson will have to rely on this classmate friendship to ask Qi'er for help. Now the situation in the world is not good, so don't close the door without noticing it for a while."
"To save the old lady from having to eat and sleep on the street at an old age, it's really pitiful, pitiful!" Du Yuanwai lamented pretendingly.
"I don't know where you have the confidence to belittle us businessmen. I only know that one day, you will pay for what you did." Liu Cui threw up her sleeves angrily, pulled the board and walked out.
"Don't be ungrateful, give me [-]% of the shares now and you can still walk sideways in the town!" Du Yuanwai shouted to Liu Cui's back.
Liu Cui left without looking back.
.......................................
Liu Cui is a person who has seen the world, including that strange fairy, and Liu Cui has also talked with him once or twice.Unexpectedly, Liu Cui thought she had read a thousand sails, but instead of realizing it, she fell on it.
When they got home, Liu Cui was still angry.
As soon as she saw her mother get off the car, Liu Lan rushed to greet her, and took the opportunity to whisper: "Second Master Bao is here again."
Liu Cui also gave a low "hmm", not only did she know that Baoyu often came to her workshop to make rouge, but she also took Baoyu's carriage.
Although Liu Cui was a little surprised why Baner would go home before school was over, years of experience still made Liu Lan help Liu Cui get off the car nimbly.Let me settle down first before talking about anything else.
When Liu Cui got out of the car, she looked left and right, seeing no one around, turned around and took out a piece of broken silver to send away the newly hired coachman. gone."
After that, Liu Cui took Liu Lan into the small room and asked if there were many embarrassments in his workshop that he didn't know about, otherwise a small staff member shouldn't speak so wildly.
Facing her old lady, Liu Lan was very respectful, and she didn't dare to hide anything, Liu Cui didn't ask any questions, but when she asked, Liu Lan made it clear like beans in a bamboo tube.
As the saying goes, the King of Hades is easy to see, and the little ghost is hard to deal with. Liu Cui took care of the King of Hades, but this little ghost is not easy to deal with. The suppliers of raw materials will raise prices from time to time, and the workers will steal things from time to time. Come here to join him, what's more, there will be people claiming their status and status, come to point fingers and talk nonsense... Although Uncle Wu has experience, after all, things are heavy, he patrols around and develops his own rouge, and he can't take care of it.
Therefore, the life of Liu Lan, the second shopkeeper, is not easy.
After listening to Liu Cui's narration, Liu Cui fell into a long silence... Opening a workshop is not as easy as I imagined.
Liu Lan quietly glanced at her mother's face, and when she saw her mother's long face, she knew that Liu Cui was in trouble, and hurriedly comforted her: "These are small problems, and they will be resolved soon."
Liu Cui flipped through the ledger, apparently not believing Liu Lan's comforting nonsense.As the scale of the workshop becomes bigger and bigger, many conflicts will be gradually aroused. The best way for someone like me who is not interested in selling rouge and gouache should be to fully delegate power and be a hands-off shopkeeper.
It's a pity... Liu Cui sighed softly. After all, the world of Red Mansions is different from the previous life, and the various systems are not perfect. In the previous life, it is enough to hire a professional to manage the company and pay dividends on time.
Unlike now, not to mention being a hands-off shopkeeper, there is no need to pretend, as long as the formula is leaked, Liu Cui's rouge room will only have a dead end.
Therefore, only these few relatives, Liu Lan and Gouer, who still have a trustworthy character and a guaranteed character, can be used by Wu Bo, Zou Ying, and Wuxu.The dog Liu Lan has no experience, isn't that a pot of porridge?
But the two of them are strong, and they gritted their teeth to support themselves, and they didn't speak when they were wronged. It really hurt the children.Liu Cui patted Liu Lan's shoulder, feeling the tension under her hands, Liu Cui opened her mouth, but didn't know where to start.
After Liu Lan explained the matter, she knew that she was useless and could do nothing well, and as if the last fig leaf had been torn off in public, she couldn't help lowering her head and shrinking her shoulders, looking like she was waiting to be scolded .However, Liu Cui's reprimand was not heard for a long time.
Just one sentence: "It's okay, my mother will resist the big things, and the big things will be solved by my mother. With my mother here, what are you afraid of?"
For a while, Liu Lan, who was only crying in front of the child who died young, burst into tears again, and couldn't stop it no matter what, a child with a mother is like a treasure!
Liu Cui gently wiped Liu Lan's face with a small handkerchief, and said casually: "Summer is almost here, it's time to set up an imperial merchant to come out and have fun."
Liu Lan, who was sobbing and choking, leaned back suddenly to avoid the restraint of Liu Cui's handkerchief, and stared at Liu Cui with bright eyes.
Then he bent down and covered his heart, only to feel dizzy for a while: "Mother, are you crazy?"
The author has something to say:
Later, a fish was stewed at home (Note: I bought the fish and cooked the rice), and my younger brother was a picky eater, so he secretly fed most of the fish in the bowl to the cat...
then,
Incredible!
The cat changed, and at night very consciously followed my brother into my brother's bedroom.
I who witnessed the whole process: "..."
This affectionate... After all, it was a wrong payment...
Liu Cui only felt a double blow to her body and mind, and she didn't listen to this staff bragging or showing off...
"Well, Mr. Du, let's talk about the education of the two children." Liu Cui interrupted aloud, she couldn't bear it anymore, Liu Cui's short life must not be wasted on such a long matter.
