Traveling Through Ancient Times To Be a Shopkeeper

When Wei Cheng woke up, he remembered that he had to go back to the village to work in the fields every day.

He remembered that he allocated two mu of paddy fields and one mu of land, and when he went back to work in the village, he even planted the land allocated to his elder brother.

Wei Cheng was speechless.

They all separated and helped to farm the land. The original owner is still a very honest person.

It is true that good people are bullied by others.

He has never been successful in farming for more than ten years. Even if he has memory, he doesn't want to farm anymore. If he wants to go back to his old business and start a business, if he relies on farming, he will never be able to achieve financial freedom until he is old.

As for the fields in the village, let him think about it.

Weicheng went shopping, went directly to the market, daily necessities, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and rice grains, so he didn’t need to buy them. The most important thing was to change all his clothes, and the bed quilts at home were the same.

Wei Cheng enters the clothes store, which is filled with ordinary cloth, most of which are coarse cloth, which is suitable for country people to buy, and it is also cheap and affordable. He is dressed in shabby clothes and settles in, and the waiter in the shop also greets customers with a smile. After all, there are really no county towns except for country people The people inside come in.

Even if there are, they are small and wealthy households who come to buy slaves. Except for the fixed small shops, the rest of the market is the farmer's things picked and grown by the countrymen themselves, and the price is more affordable than that of the county. However, the servants of the big households in the county would not come to buy, and would even dislike taking a step forward.

The shop sells ready-made clothes, and Wei Cheng didn't come here. He directly asked the price of a set of rough clothes, ranging from a dozen to fifty or sixty yuan, and quilts were more expensive, costing more than a hundred yuan.

I bought three sets of ready-made clothes and a quilt, which cost more than two hundred cash.

The waiter in the shop also gave a discount. It is rare to meet a big customer. This month's commission is definitely more than a dozen cash, and he also buys some meat for Neng's family members.

The waiter in the shop smiled openly, nodded respectfully, bowed his waist and wrapped the bag, and then sent Wei Cheng out the door.

Watching Wei Cheng go away to the background, the waiter thought to himself, he's misjudged, this shabby house, the clothes are white from washing, the sleeves and corners are frayed, and there are patches on his body, he is so rich.

After this experience, the waiter in the shop will treat every customer who comes to buy clothes more seriously. Later, his service attitude and equal treatment made some poor people look for the waiter in the shop after they settled down and got rich.

After buying clothes, Wei Cheng went to buy oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar. His parents' store sells groceries, and it seems that they also have oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar. However, it seems that his elder brother and sister-in-law are watching the store. In the past, when the autumn wind hit, it was still an advantage to divide the family.

Wei Cheng decided to go to another store to buy, since he was not in the same place anyway, so he was not afraid to see it.

I bought oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and meat, and then I went to buy some vegetables, and brought home bags, and when I got home, I was inevitably pointed at by neighbors and gossip behind my back.

He pretended not to hear.

"He got rich? Buying so many things."

"Maybe it's a swollen face to pretend to be fat."

"His family divided him out, so he must get some money, so he will spend a lot of money to buy things."

"Let's just say that he slapped his face swollen to pretend to be a fat man. After spending all the time, he will still die of poverty."

Qinghe Village

The Zhou family who had a blind date with Wei Cheng, Zhou Wu's idea of ​​pro-nephew, because if it is Wei Cheng's matchmaker, Wei's mother promised to give money in return.

A few hundred cash is money. She doesn't like Wei Cheng's poor appearance. When she took her daughter on a blind date, she also inquired about Wei Cheng's family background. There are houses and shops in the county, and there are houses in the countryside with a few acres of paddy fields.

She was very happy for such a good partner. If she met her daughter, her daughter would marry from the county, and she would have a lot of face. The other family also opened a grocery store, and they were in-laws when they usually went shopping, so there was no discount.

It never occurred to her that the houses and grocery stores in the county town did not have Wei Cheng's share, and she was assigned a country man with long, dull mud legs and shabby clothes, how could she marry her daughter to him.

Her spoiled daughter is going to marry a rich man.

But when she got angry, Wei's mother proposed an introducer to come over on the spot, and Xiangzhong gave her a few hundred cash as a thank you, and she thought of the unmarried brother of her second family.

A brother who can't get married, a poor man who can't get a wife.

After thinking about it, Zhou Wu went to his nephew's house.

Zhou Wu, who never came to the house and disliked her poor family, came to the house. Zhou's mother was enthusiastically pulled into the house by Zhou Wu's. It was really strange for Zhou's mother to see it.

Be vigilant in your heart, her sister-in-law, who usually looks arrogant and looks down on her family, why is she looking so good today.

Mrs. Zhou Wu directly explained the purpose of coming here. She wanted to introduce someone to Zhou's mother's brother, and she even told the other party that she had a house in the county town, and fields in the countryside, and her family had a shop in the suburbs of the county town. They lived a happy life. spicy.

Zhou's mother doesn't believe Zhou Wu's hype. She remembers that the person Zhou Wu said seems to be her family's Zhou Lanlan's previous blind date. This is Zhou Wu's previous blind date. When things are told, the whole village knows.

When I came back later, I didn't mention it again.

When the villagers saw it, they all said that the other party must have looked down on Zhou Lanlan. They said behind their backs that Zhou Lanlan was in a hurry to post it but others didn't want it. She scolded that her family, Zhou Lanlan, looked down on a small family in the county, but her family, Zhou Lanlan, wanted to marry a rich family and become a young mistress.

Zhou's mother listened to her bragging, she didn't believe that if the other party was really so good, Zhou Wu would let her go.

"Sister-in-law, why doesn't your Lanlan want such a good match?" Mother Zhou asked.

Zhou Wu's shell suddenly snapped, his eyes dodged with guilt, but thinking of Zhou's elder brother, Zhou Yuan, who was not wanted by anyone, who was not good-looking, and who was not married at the age of eighteen, he became an elder brother. If she was willing to introduce a man to Zhou Yuan, the Zhou family should thank her.

"Brothers and sisters, a blind date is just right after seeing it. The Wei family's family background is not bad, just like the mayor of Wei Cheng. Lan Lan, you also know that a person is beautiful and considerate. How can you marry an ugly person?" , otherwise it's your brother's turn to be cheap. Besides, he's average in appearance, and his family background is always good. Before I came to your house to propose marriage, it was because he was ugly, or the family was poor, or he had poor character. Your brother is old Brother, if I introduce something to you, you are still afraid that I will not be able to deceive you."

Zhou's mother thought for a while, but she was still worried and asked: "Will the other party marry brother?"

Regarding this point, Mrs. Zhou Wu hesitated...

Brother is not easy to marry, he is not petite and feminine, and it is even more difficult to marry a tall and not feminine brother like Zhou Yuan.

Brothers are not as good as women, and they can only have one, and there is no sense of gentleness and consideration from women. Dajingchao's brothers only account for a small part. A brother needs two taels of silver to marry home, and a girl needs at least five taels of silver.

It's better to be born in a family that doesn't dislike your brother, but it's not easy to be born in a family that dislikes your brother. This is more expensive than having a girl.

How can Zhou Fajiang's family be like this, who gave birth to a brother named Zhou Yuan, so it's okay if he doesn't dislike him, and he loves him very much. The three brothers above do the hard work in the field, so he will do some non-tiring work at home.

Whether Wei Cheng likes his brother Zhou Wu dare not guarantee it. Although Wei Cheng is poorer, he is also a native of the county, so he might not like his brother. No, Zhou Wu is not telling the truth for the sake of a few hundred words of thanks. To be honest.

"Brothers and sisters, don't worry, if the other party doesn't marry my brother, I won't come here. I still think it's troublesome. I don't want you to agree immediately. I don't want to make an appointment with you to meet up first." You don't necessarily know when you meet. Wei Chengqiong, if she doesn't say clearly at that time, the Zhou family won't know, and in the end they marry, and there is no need to go back on their word.

Zhou's mother was a little relieved, and thought to herself, it's okay to go and have a look, but the appearance is generally nothing, but she is afraid that it is because of poor character, she will not send her brother to suffer for the sake of marrying him.

Zhou's mother would be so cautious, but she had encountered it before, and she didn't believe in being fussy, so she couldn't see that Zhou Wu, who was a good person, would be so kind to introduce someone to her brother.

Her brother's marriage has always been her worry. She was able to find it slowly in the first two years, but later on she became more anxious, and someone wanted to plot against her brother.

The matchmaker came to the door to talk about matchmaking, and she also said that there was a man in the neighboring village, whose family population was simple, and the family was poor before and did not marry a brother until now. Just marry my brother, this doesn't take into account the Zhou family's brother.

When the Zhou family encountered such a good thing, they originally wanted to agree, but after all, they hadn’t understood it before, so they should understand it first. The matchmaker also said that it should be understood. That man, as the matchmaker said, is a long-term man who endures hardships and stands hard work.

If she hadn't met Zhou Mu's sister from the same village, who happened to be married to that village, and happened to be the neighbor of the man's family, and secretly told her that the man had hidden diseases and would beat people when he drank, she must not have said this to the outside world, she had overheard arrived.

How can that work, the Zhou family later rejected the marriage, and also rejected the matchmaker from the household.

"Her auntie, I can't make up my mind about this matter. I will give you an answer after the head of the family comes back to discuss it." Zhou's mother didn't agree directly. Brother's marriage is a big deal. After that, she wanted to know more about the man's character. It is impossible to just marry my elder brother.

"Auntie, I agree with this matter, please ask Auntie to arrange a time."

Zhou Yuan, who had been standing at the door eavesdropping, came in. He had just returned from planting vegetables in the field when his aunt in the village told him that his aunt hurried to his house. His family took out something to honor their grandparents, worried that his mother would suffer, so he hurried home.

As soon as he entered the small courtyard, he heard the loud voice of the eldest aunt, who turned out to be introducing someone to him.

Although I don't know what the eldest aunt's heart is, she must be a lobbyist because she has interests in it, and it's just a meeting.

The elder sister-in-law at home secretly said that he would not marry, and that he would eat and drink for nothing at home, and that there were too many people in the family to have a good meal. There are too many children in the family, and it is almost impossible to live on. If he gets married and can make room for him, he will die and refuse to marry.

If he gets married, the family will lose his ration, and maybe they can still eat a meal of meat.

Zhou Yuan also overheard a few sisters-in-law chatting behind his back. Most of what he said was his elder sister-in-law. The second sister-in-law was thoughtful but smart and didn't dare to say more. The third sister-in-law was calculating and hoped that he would marry early. up.

Zhou Yuan also didn't want his parents to worry about his marriage all day long. If someone introduces a blind date, it doesn't matter for him to go and see.

Although Zhou Yuan's temperament is docile, his stubborn side will be revealed when he insists on it. Zhou's mother refused, but Zhou Yuan agreed. His eldest aunt took the opportunity to say: "Brother Zhou, just say that It's decided, but the aunt told the other party to make an appointment."

Zhou's mother couldn't stop her, so Zhou Wu's family left in a hurry.

At night, this incident caused the Zhou family to be silent for a while.

Father Zhou and the three elder brothers of the Zhou family objected on the spot.

Their eldest aunt was so kind to introduce people, she must have taken advantage of others.

The people her Zhou Lanlan despises are definitely tricky.

But I don't agree, and I agree with Zhou Wu's, because Zhou Wu's is difficult and reasonable, and he will definitely not let him go.

In the end, Zhou's father took the case, just take a look, and if the other party is not suitable, just refuse.

Zhou Yuan's three sisters-in-law secretly rejoiced.

On Weicheng's side, he had a good meal, including soup, meat, and vegetables, to celebrate his new life. He sneezed and rubbed his nose while eating.

Someone must be talking about him behind his back.

But I didn't know that I arranged a blind date for him again.

Still a dude—
