When Su Yue woke up, Sun Yinglian's mother Wen and Wang were chatting in the backyard.

"It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors." The two families live face to face, and the two unmarried girls in the family are about the same age. They often play together, live close to each other for a long time, and the two families treat each other as family friends.

"Ayue Niang, have you heard that the peddler's family wants to give their daughter to the idiot of the old Wu." Wen sat down at the stone table in the backyard.

Mrs. Wang brought a plate of steamed dried fish, and the two chatted while eating the dried fish, "The daughter of the seller's family, who doesn't know that when she was five years old, she couldn't speak after taking the wrong medicine. People She looks upright, but unfortunately she is dumb. She is almost [-] years old and has not yet found her husband's family. Everyone thinks that the daughter of the salesman's family is dumb. Even the matchmaker in the alley heard that she was going to match the salesman's daughter. Close the door and thank you."

"Isn't it just right for a dumb to match a fool?" Wen said with a smile.

Wang was stunned for a moment, and then burst into tears with laughter, "Oh, what a dumbass, a dumb person who can't speak, how are you living these days, isn't it because your eyes are black - you've been blind."

"According to me, if this marriage is successful, the old Wutou's family will still make money." Wen's hissed, "A fool can't do anything, a dumb person can't speak, and everything else is as good as a person. The daughter of the peddler's family, she is good-looking, she can wash and cook, and she is diligent, and she will have a fat boy in two years, so she will have a bright future."

"From what you said, it's the same reason." Wang nodded, "Silly man, it's good that others don't dislike him, but if this is the case, I am too wronged for the salesman's daughter."

Wen also sighed, "The peddler proposed this marriage on his own initiative. After all, the girl is going to get married when she grows up. It's hard to keep her at home and guard the Buddhist hall for the rest of her life. The peddler has found several matchmakers, but none of them are married. People who dare to take this job, excuses to shirk..."

The two chatted in the courtyard for a while, Wen raised his head to look at the sky, saw that it was almost time for dinner, and Deyuelou was still busy, so he got up to leave.

Mrs. Wang didn't keep her, but gave her a large bag of dried fish, wrapped it in oil paper, and asked her to take it home and eat it steamed.

Su Yue had nothing to do, walked around, walked to the porcelain shop in front, saw Xiao Hei lying on the counter, propping his chin with one hand, dozing off bit by bit.

Su Yue didn't wake him up, she crossed the counter and walked straight forward with light steps.There was no visitor for a long time, a layer of dust fell on the Duobao Pavilion of the shop, and the white porcelain on the Duobao Pavilion was also dusted, looking gray.

Now the Su family's porcelain shop can barely maintain the family's expenses, and it won't be able to support the family for another two months. The shop began to lose money, and Su Yuanshan was very discouraged. He had no intention of doing business, so he simply ignored the things in the shop and left the shop to Su Qing , I went to teach at Yushan Academy by myself.Later, the shop was handed over to Su Qing, but the best opportunity was still missed. Many wealthy businessmen had accumulated capital and began to explore overseas markets...

Su Yue stretched out her slender index finger to touch the ash on the white porcelain, leaving a white mark immediately.

Baici fell to dust, and her memory also fell to dust, and she slowly recalled the things in her previous life.

She had to admit that Su Yuanshan was a bit pedantic. She never let Wang and Su Yue get involved in the business of the shop, saying that they were women's generation. You have to stay in the inner courtyard well, and leave it to the men to earn money to support the family.

She and Wang could only watch the shop lose money and close... In the end, within three years, the white porcelain kiln of the Su family also collapsed.

Su Yong looked at the ashes left on her index finger and felt very heartbroken. She made up her mind that she couldn't go on like this, and couldn't let the foundation left by her ancestors be destroyed by their generation. She had to do something for the Su family.

Su Yue ordered Hong Jiao to fetch water from the well, rolled up her sleeves to reveal her tender arms, and wiped the dust on Duobao Pavilion with a wet handkerchief.

The two acted lightly for fear of breaking the porcelain.

"Is the shopkeeper here?" A customer shouted at the door, and upon hearing the word "treasurer", Xiao Hei woke up with a jolt, and went to greet him.

The guest walked into the gate and was startled when he saw Xiao Hei's black face, and stood there for a while, hesitating whether to enter the store or not.

"What do you want to buy, officer?" After being stared at for a long time, Xiao Hei uncomfortably wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth when he just fell asleep.

"Just take a look." The visitor walked in with his hands behind his back, his eyes swept away, and he soon spotted the two people who were polishing porcelain in front of Duobao Pavilion.

Su Yue climbed up on a high stool and was polishing the porcelain. She saw a man wearing a melon cap and dressed as a businessman.Originally wanted to avoid it, but seeing that he couldn't get up and down, and couldn't get down after a while, he nodded and smiled at the person who came by embarrassingly.

People who came here looked here, looked there, walked around twice, did not speak, and did not say what kind of porcelain they wanted to buy.

Just looking at it but not buying it, Xiao Hei looked anxious: Blame him, blame him, blame him for his bad face.

Seeing this, Su Yue got down from the stool, whispered to Hong Jiao to pour a pot of tea, walked to Xiao Hei and whispered a few words to him.

Xiao Hei came to his senses immediately, and with a smile on his face, invited the guest to sit down on the chair by the window.A black face blossomed into a smile, revealing two rows of neat big white teeth, no one could resist.

At this time, Hongjiao came over with the teapot just in time, and cleverly served a cup of Longjing tea to the guests.

The aroma of tea came out, and the guest took a sip in satisfaction, holding a white porcelain teacup in his hand, and said "good tea".The green tea leaves sank piece by piece in the white porcelain cup as white as jade, and the guest was surprised to find that the tea cup in his hand was so beautiful, not inferior to the blue and white tea cup at all.

"Your store mainly sells white porcelain?" the visitor asked.

"The white porcelain is handed down from our family. It is all fired in our own white porcelain kiln. It is all high-quality white porcelain." Xiao Hei stepped forward to reply.

The visitor raised his head and looked around, only to find that the little girl had disappeared, the shelf had been polished, and even the white porcelain on the shelf had been polished so that it shone brightly, making the whole room much brighter.

He wanted to buy a batch of white porcelain. At first, he walked to the door of the store and looked in. Seeing the gloomy interior and the porcelain shelves covered with dust, he thought he had gone to the wrong place.

The visitor nodded in satisfaction, ordered a batch of white porcelain tea sets with Xiao Hei, paid the deposit, and left with his hands behind his back.

"Guest officer, go slowly, welcome to come again next time!" Xiao Hei personally sent the person to the gate, pinched his face that was about to freeze from laughing, and couldn't believe it was true.

Su Yong listened for a while behind the small door leading to the front yard of the shop, and when she learned that the deal was completed, she quickly ran to tell Wang's Xiaohei that she had accepted a big order.

Wang grinned from ear to ear, originally she was worried that her son-in-law's black face would scare people away, but now it seems that she is overthinking, regardless of his bad face, the one who can accept the order is a good face.

Mrs. Wang was very happy to reward Xiao Hei, so she went to a farmer's house in a nearby farm and bought an old hen. If you want to eat chicken, you have to eat free-range chickens from the farmer's house. The native chickens that run around in the field every day are delicious when stewed. .

The Su family hadn't received an order for almost a month. The news that Xiao Hei sold a large batch of white porcelain tea sets today excited everyone, and everyone's faces were beaming.

The old hen is stewed on the kitchen stove, put soaked dried shiitake mushrooms, red dates, wolfberry, plus thinly sliced ​​ginseng, and two Codonopsis ginseng, together with the old hen just bought, in an earthen pot Bring to a simmer.

After a while, the whole yard was filled with the smell of chicken soup.

"Mother, let's send Uncle Wu a bowl of chicken soup." Su Yue walked into the kitchen, "We haven't had time to thank him for what happened yesterday."
