In the old shop, only the uncle surnamed Liang, who was in charge of the accounts, was in charge of the business. Seeing Shen Juexin coming in, he just nodded slightly, with a neither humble nor overbearing attitude, showing no courtesy to master and servant: "The young master is here." He cleaned the dust on the cabinet, his eyes casually Look for the information you need.

Sure enough, as expected, Shen Juexin narrowed her eyes slightly, and she asked Shen Ci to wait at the door, after looking around, she casually walked into the counter and asked, "Uncle Liang, how is the business in the store recently?" ?”

"Master, the business in the store is really different from before." Uncle Liang carefully wiped the jade carvings on the cabinet, he was reluctant to Shen Juexin's move around the counter, but he also understood what she meant by this move. , and said: "The young master came here in his busy schedule, but does the master have something to order?"

"Father didn't give any orders. He just came here to have a look." Shen Juexin smiled, and said again: "Didn't Dad tell you? He has entrusted me to take care of this shop. One is to see how the business in the store is doing, and the other is to take a look at the account books."

Hearing this, Uncle Liang couldn't help but jump in his heart.Although he only saw Shen Juexin a few times when he was young, the gossip and gossip outside these years was enough for him to get to know the 'Master Shen' in front of him.Therefore, even though Mr. Shen came to the shop specially and told him that 'the young master will take care of this shop in the future', he still didn't take it seriously.Because of the rumors outside that 'Master Shen's nature is romantic, he loves leisure and hates work', and because the master has sighed in front of him many times, he doesn't know how to make the 'Master' sensible and mature.

Could it be the young master's 3-minute heat?Or do you want to pretend to be in front of the master? !Uncle Liang made a small guess in his heart, and his vigilance was slightly relaxed just now.Since it's just pretending, why not let her go?Come to think of it, this is the first time the young master has asked about business matters, and he doesn't know much about the account book. Even if there are mistakes and omissions, with his many years of experience in accounting, how can the young master, Huang Lang, be able to detect them? !

Thinking about it, Uncle Liang took out the account book from the inner room, handed it to Shen Juexin, and said, "Young master, all the accounts in the store are recorded here. When you are old, you will always forget things, so you can't wait for the account book. I have some hesitation, but I hope the young master will not take it to heart. If there is anything I don't understand in this account, the young master can come and ask, and I will definitely tell you everything."

"With Uncle Liang's words, I feel relieved." Shen Juexin raised the corners of her lips at him, but the smile in it was hard to guess.Even an old fritter like Uncle Liang can't read the meaning.Without waiting for him to think about it, Shen Juexin had already walked out of the shop with the ledger.Shen Ci followed behind her, occasionally glancing at the commercial building under renovation, wondering: "Master, why would anyone come here from the capital to do business here? When did our Suzhou city become so good? People come here to make money."

"Is Suzhou not good? It is said that Suzhou and Hangzhou are like a fairyland on earth. We may not feel that much when we were born here. The travelers who come to visit are more real than us. I just don’t know. You, it’s difficult for you to read and write on weekdays, but now you are very interested in doing business with outsiders. I don’t know, when you will make a few words again, maybe it will impress me. ?”

"Young Master, don't make fun of Shen Ci! Shen Ci knows that he is indifferent, so how can he have the ability to impress the Young Master with just a few words." Shen Ci pouted aggrievedly, as if he was unwilling to be made a joke by the Young Master.He looked at Shen Juexin, his watery eyes were clear, "It's just young master, Shen Ci is really not interested in reading and writing, young master, don't make things difficult for Shen Ci anymore."

"Hahaha! Shen Ci, you are honest! Let it go, it won't be difficult for you to read and write from now on, so just obediently be my personal attendant, and you won't suffer any disadvantages." Shen Juexin smiled Opening his arms, he looked at the account book in his hand again and his smile faded, "Chen Ci, guess how many empty accounts there are in this account book?"

"Master, Shen Ci doesn't know how to read accounts."

"Really?" Shen Juexin looked up at the sky, with the corner of his left lip raised slightly, and said, "You don't know how to read accounts, but I do. I'm afraid Uncle Liang thinks that I don't know anything about accounts like you. Only then did he feel relieved to hand over the ledger to me. He is getting old, and it's time to take some silver and go home for the elderly. Let's go back to the mansion to 'study' this ledger, 'research' hahaha..."

The main street not far from the yamen welcomes all kinds of people to gather here in the evening, and there are often monkey performers or jugglers from outside to make money here.Today, however, more people gathered around the door of a closed shop, some pointed, some shook their heads and sighed, and some kind-hearted people dropped a few copper coins for charity.

Wearing sackcloth, Wanniang knelt in front of the shop, next to her husband's corpse covered by a mat, sobbing softly, comforting the restless daughter in her arms from time to time.Selling herself to bury her husband, with a wooden sign with crooked handwriting hanging around her neck, in the hope that she could be sold as a servant by the wife of a wealthy family, Wanniang finally chose such an extreme method.

It is helpless, and it is forced by the situation.

The only home has been occupied by the creditor with the deed. He didn't even give Wanniang a chance to tidy up her clothes, leaving some valuable items in the house, and left Ling'er, who was less than one year old, in a dilapidated bamboo basket outside the house. If Wanniang hadn't returned in time, she might have lost her only family member.

Having not eaten or drunk for two whole days, Wanniang was already weak and weak.Fortunately, some kind-hearted people threw down the copper coins, and she carefully picked them up and wrapped them up, thinking of getting some rice soup for Ling'er first, so as not to starve the child.After all, after working hard for many days, she no longer has enough milk to feed Linger.

A pair of fat hands violently pushed aside the crowd of onlookers, seeing Wanniang kneeling there with her head bowed, a smirk flashed in her eyes, she didn't care whether she was on the street or whether there were people around, and abruptly helped Wanniang up , stroking the back of her hand with both hands from time to time, and laughed loudly: "Hey Wanniang, how did you get to such a point! Selling yourself to bury your husband? Ouch! Seeing you like this really makes my heart ache!"

"Hu, Master Hu..." Seeing the person supporting her clearly, Wan Niang hurriedly escaped from his arms, holding Ling'er tightly: "Master Lao Hu is concerned, it is fate to end up like this, I can't blame anyone." Touching the pain in her heart, Wanniang didn't cry much.She looked at the child who had just fallen asleep in her arms, and then at the dead body of her husband covered with a straw mat. She was so helpless and pitiful.

"Hey! It's like this, there are good and bad!" Hu Yuanwai stepped forward to hold Wanniang's hand again, took out ten taels of silver from his sleeve, and said, "Now you sell yourself here to bury your husband, I can do it, and I can do it." The only way is to buy you and treat you well. Wanniang, this is ten taels of silver. You can take it and bury your husband Haosheng. Oh, I think you look so ugly, why don't you follow me back to the house to rest? As for This child, like you are now, she is nothing more than a burden, why not just throw it away!"

"No! No!" Hearing this, Wanniang shook her head and backed away, hugging Ling'er even tighter in her arms: "Mr. Hu, Ling'er is my only family member, my flesh and blood born in ten months of pregnancy, how can I bear the heart?" Abandon her?! She, she is not a burden, I can't abandon her! This money, you should take it back."

"How could Wanniang refuse my kindness like this?" Member Hu glanced at the child in her arms with distaste, and then smiled again: "I'm doing this for your own good! How is your husband known all over the world?" , a gambler, what kind of future can his descendants have? Let alone a girl, throw it away as soon as possible, so as not to delay your happiness, Wanniang."

"I can't! It's true that my husband was a gambler, but the child is innocent, so I can't leave her alone!"

"Where do you come from so much nonsense! Wan Niang, you and I will go back to the mansion!" Member Hu couldn't wait, he threw ten taels of silver on the straw mat and wanted to drag Wan Niang back to the mansion.He had been spying on Wanniang a long time ago, now that she has no husband, and she is selling her body here to bury her husband, how can there be such a gift for Hu Yuanwai?only...

"Huh? Is there no one patrolling the streets in the government today? Why is someone robbing civilian girls here?" A sudden smile burst out from the noisy crowd, and then, an ingot of gold fell at the feet of the Hu member. Laughter continued: "Mr. Hu, Wanniang has already been bought by me. I don't know why you want to take my people by force? Or, Mr. Hu, you have been too free recently and want to live in prison for a few days?"
