Chapter 143 Pan Xiuniang buys a house
“It’s a humble house and poor hospitality.” Madam Wan poured a glass of hot water for the two of them.
Jiang Ning shook his head, "It should be my fault for coming here without telling me."
Madam Wan didn't expect Jiang Ning to say such refined words. She looked at Liu Ye in surprise, her eyes seeming to ask, "Is this your mother-in-law?"
Liu Ye laughed twice and asked flatteringly: "Ms. Wan, my mother-in-law came here today to ask for something. I have a sister-in-law who wants to learn to be a female celebrity."
Before Liu Ye finished speaking, she was interrupted by Wan Niangzi, "Yi Zi, I know what you mean, but I also told you that I will never accept a disciple again in this life."
Liu Ye was a little embarrassed, but Jiang Ning was calm, "I understand Madam Wan's concern. It's nothing more than the fact that the person she has worked so hard to cultivate does not care about her master's life or death in the end. Anyone else would be disappointed. If you are willing to accept my little girl as your disciple, I I promise that she will honor you as she honors me, provide for you until the end of your life, and will never abandon you."
"Hmph! That's nice to say! The parents of those children promised me the same thing back then, but what happened? After they learned the skills from me, they climbed up the ladder, got married, and forgot about the vows they made! I used to think Those who break their oaths will definitely be punished, but now it seems that I was too naive. They are now living a smooth life, but I am the only one who is miserable! "
As soon as I heard what Mrs. Wan said, I knew that she was full of resentment.
Jiang Ning looked at Liu Ye, "Not everyone is like this, right? Although you didn't take Ye Zi as your apprentice seriously, Ye Zi has always remembered your kindness, otherwise you wouldn't have settled here. Bar?
I don’t know what other people’s situations are, but I, Jiang Ning, never believe what I say. Since I said so, I will definitely do it. Ye Zi can testify and even ask me to write a letter of guarantee. As long as Wan Niangzi accepts the daughter as her disciple, the daughter will be yours. Daughter, if you don't believe me, you can still meet with me before making a decision. Anyway, I originally planned to have her come here to help Ye Zi after the year. "
Jiang Ning said everything to this extent, and Wan Niangzi was lying when she said she was not moved. Of course, the most important thing was because of Liu Ye. Because she believed in Liu Ye, she did not refuse righteously.
Jiang Ning curled up his lips, stood up and said, "If Miss Wan doesn't object, I will let my little girl come with her brother and sister-in-law after the new year. You can get along with her for a while and give her a chance. If you feel that she is not suitable after getting along with her, Just let me never come here today, okay?”
Madam Wan paused and smiled, "Since Madam Jiang has said so, then so be it!"
Liu Ye breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Lady Wan before chasing Jiang Ning back.
On the way, Jiang Ning asked in a low voice: "What's going on at your mother's side? If the food is not enough, we still have a lot of taro, so we can spread some over."
"No, no, that happened before. Ever since the county magistrate promoted taro, Datou went over to remind me that my father and mother-in-law couldn't wait to plant all the paddy fields with taro, even the open space in front of and behind the house. , they were also worried about a bad harvest. Who knew taro could be so good? Not to mention the bumper harvest, the house at home could hardly hold it.
My uncle's family scoffed at the time and didn't believe it at all. If it hadn't been forced by the county government, he probably wouldn't have planned to plant it, so his family only planted five acres of land, and the harvested taro was only enough for them to eat until the next autumn harvest, so they didn't even take it. Don't give any extra money in exchange for food. Instead, my family bought a lot of grain and some fine grain, which made my uncle and aunt jealous so much that they made sarcastic remarks at the door of my house every day. "Liu Ye became more relieved as he talked, with a smile on his face.
Jiang Ning laughed and said, "How do you know so much?"
The two of them just walked to the door of the restaurant. Liu Ye pointed to the two nephews who were working, "My eldest sister and brother-in-law don't worry about the children. They will come over to see them every two or three months. I just came two days ago. They are all." Listen to what they say."
Jiang Ning nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "I think they are doing a good job. Now that you are pregnant, you can give them a salary increase. If they are too busy, you can ask someone to help."
Liu Ye refused without thinking, "Auntie, don't think I'm busy here. In fact, I'm busy at night when there are a lot of guests. It's fine during the day. I can help out even while sitting on a stool. At night, Jiang Dong and Jiang Nan are here." , and Datou, I'm not needed here, so I don't think it's necessary for you to ask the little girl to come over to help, but it would be nice to come over and learn from Wan Niangzi. It's just that the yard we rent is too small, so I guess it needs to be changed. "
They are now sharing a room with Pan Xiu and her daughter. The room is just right. The brothers Jiang Dong and Jiang Nan live in the restaurant. When Jiang Ning comes over, there is a small room for her to stay. If Yang Xiaoya stays here for a long time, the yard will be It’s crowded.
Seeing Jiang Ning thoughtfully, Liu Ye added: "There are also Santie and Sizhuang. They are studying in Mapo now. Mapo can be reached here by boat very quickly. If there is a bigger yard, they would like to go there every day." It's not a problem to travel back and forth between Mapo and Songxi Town. I heard that Shopkeeper Hua's son comes back often and doesn't live in the school permanently. The same goes for some of his classmates who are close to him. You said we can't take care of them if they come back. I can make them some delicious snacks once in a while.”
Jiang Ning nodded in agreement, "If that's the case, we really need to change to a bigger yard. But we rented together with Pan Xiu Niang and her daughter at the beginning, so now we have to talk to them about changing the yard."
Liu Ye covered her mouth and snickered, "Auntie, you don't know, Aunt Pan is not the Aunt Pan she used to be. She has saved a lot of money this year by sending oysters to our family. She really wants to have something on the ground." The family, no, they are planning to buy a house as soon as they have collected the money. Recently, they are asking Mr. An to help look after the yard.
She took a fancy to a courtyard that had been abandoned for many years on Qingshi Lane. The house was almost uninhabitable, but the land was valuable. The entire courtyard was almost half an acre. She could take one or two halves of it and knock down the house inside and rebuild it. With little money, Aunt Pan bought the yard and settled there.
She is looking for someone to build a house again. She wants our adobe floor tiles and tiles. She said she will do it slowly and build a room that can sleep before it snows. The rest is not in a hurry. She is planning to go there in the next few days. Rongshu Village came to discuss with you, but I didn’t expect you to come over first. Come on, let’s go over and take a look now. "
Jiang Ning didn’t expect that she hadn’t been to Songxi Town for a while, and things were changing here. Seeing that everyone was doing well, she was happy for everyone, so she responded immediately.
Pan Xiuniang was taking her daughter Xiao Qiao to tidy up the abandoned house in Qingshi Lane. When she saw Jiang Ning coming to the door, she immediately rushed over, pulled her and told her everything, "Look, I need a lot here." Things, people are also needed to build a house. Your boy is not building a house for others. Can you ask him to come over and help me? "
