Chapter 235 Blushing Cheng Niu
The other is the merchants, who are the main members of the caravan and are responsible for buying and selling goods. Depending on the size of the caravan and the needs of the business, they are responsible for purchasing, selling, and price negotiation.
There are also consignees, who are responsible for escorting and keeping the goods, ensuring the safety of the goods during transportation and preventing the goods from being stolen or lost.
Next are the guards, who all have strong fighting power and are responsible for protecting the caravan members and preventing attacks and robberies.
Of course, the number of guards will vary depending on the size of the caravan and the value of the goods.
There are also some coachmen and auxiliary personnel, such as cooks, doctors, craftsmen, etc. Responsible for driving or riding horses or camels to transport goods.
They provide daily life and emergency services to the caravans, as well as food, medical care and other services needed for daily life.
After setting the departure date, Xue Qing and Jiang Yi left the Cheng family.
Madam Cheng pulled Cheng Niu and said, "Daniu, what do you think of Miss Wu?"
Cheng Niu scratched his head and thought for a while, then uttered: "She's a good girl!"
If Old Lady Cheng could reach his head, she would really want to pat the bull's head hard.
"Then have you ever thought about letting Miss Wu be Brother Yang's mother?" Old Lady Cheng asked directly.
Cheng Niu was stunned when he heard this. He really hadn't thought about it: "This... mother... I haven't thought about it"
Madam Cheng stood up and slapped Cheng Niu on his sturdy arm. Madam Cheng could only reach here: "You silly cow, do you think Qing'er is not good?"
At this moment, Cheng Niu began to recall the few times he had met Xue Qing. The first time was when she saved Cheng Yang, so calmly and firmly.
Later, at the Wu family, she saw that little figure asking her to go to the Western Regions to bring back some seeds that were not available in the Central Plains. Later, she came to the Cheng family to visit her mother and saw how much Brother Yang depended on her and how well she took care of Brother Yang.
Today, when he opened the door and saw a handsome young man standing at the door, he did not recognize her at first.
At that time, I was just amazed at what a handsome young man he was. Just as I was about to speak, I heard the young man at the door say, "Brother Cheng, long time no see!"
I was surprised to realize that it was Miss Wu.
Old Madam Cheng noticed that her son's originally calm face was slowly getting a blush. She lowered her head and smiled secretly, thinking that this brat had finally come to her senses.
Cheng Niu seemed to sense his mother's smile, and turned back to his room with a red face.
Xue Qing and Jiang Yi went straight to the house that Cheng bought in Anyang after leaving Cheng's house. This was also Jiang Yi's first time here.
The house is located in a corner of a bustling street, but it has a quiet atmosphere, as if it is isolated from the world.
The gate of the house was originally painted bright vermilion. Although the color has faded a little over time, it still retains its solemnity and majesty.
At this time, the door was closed. Jiang Yi walked to the door and gently pushed open the heavy wooden door. With a "creak", the door slowly opened, revealing a deep courtyard.
After entering the house, Jiang Yi was shocked by the scene in front of him. The scenery in the yard was arranged in an orderly manner, and every detail revealed the taste and care of the original owner.
The bluestone-paved path winds and twists, leading to the depths of the house. On both sides of the path, flowers, plants and trees are lush and blooming, emitting bursts of fragrance. The breeze blows by, bringing a hint of coolness and tranquility.
They continued walking forward, passed through an exquisite moon gate, and arrived at the first courtyard.
The main room's hall is bright and spacious, with tables and chairs neatly arranged. The calligraphy and paintings and plaques on the walls reflect the original owner's cultural heritage and taste.
The two walked into the hall. On the right was the master bedroom, and on the left was the living room.
Looking through the window, Jiang Yi saw Wu Tong lying inside and snoring. He walked over and knocked on the door.
Wu Tong got up sleepily and opened the door. When he saw Jiang Yi and Xue Qing behind her, his face looked a little ugly.
"What are you two doing here?" Wu Tong walked into the hall and sat in the main seat.
He really thinks of himself as the owner of this house.
Xue Qing sat down on the main seat on the left with a cold face: "I rented this house. To be exact, I am the owner here. You live here for free. I have never charged you rent. So you have to do all the work inside and outside the house."
When Wu Tong heard that Xue Qing was actually going to ask about the rent, his face suddenly became extremely ugly: "Xia Xueqing, let me tell you, you are a child bride bought by the Wu family. Every penny you earn belongs to the Wu family. In other words, it belongs to me, Wu Tong."
After a pause, he felt unsatisfied, and without waiting for Xue Qing to speak, he continued: "My Wu family is full of kind people. They raised you from childhood to adulthood. Do you know how to be grateful?"
Xue Qing sneered: "I only know that when I came to the Wu family, there were only my mother and sister-in-law, but I didn't see anyone else."
Of course, this other person refers to Wu Tong.
Xue Qing’s meaning was very clear. I am grateful to the Liu and Ding families. What does it have to do with you, Wu Tong?
Wu Tong was angry: "As long as you are the daughter-in-law of the Wu family, every penny you earn belongs to the Wu family and to me!" After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and walked out of the hall.
Jiang Yi went forward to comfort Xue Qing, but Xue Qing burst out laughing: "Okay, let's continue to visit this house."
Of course you should take a good look at what you buy yourself.
Xue Qing took Jiang Yi through the first courtyard and came to the second courtyard.
This is where the owner lives and meets guests on a daily basis, and the layout is more compact and cozy.
The main house and the wing rooms are kept in tidiness. Through the windows, one can see that the furnishings and furniture inside are very exquisite.
The study is filled with neatly arranged bookshelves and desks, as if one can still feel the scene of the original owner writing furiously and reading by lamplight at night.
Finally, they arrived at the third courtyard.
These are auxiliary rooms such as servants' rooms and storage rooms. Although simple, they are also neat and tidy.
Jiang Yi looked at everything here, and couldn't help but feel deeply moved. He imagined Wu Tong living here, but at the same time he felt sorry for Xue Qing - originally it was to facilitate Wu Qian's private school, but now it was Wu Tong who lived here.
Xue Qing also saw that the furniture here was very valuable. She wanted to thank the shopkeeper for his talent! He bought such a nice house at such a cheap price.
She couldn't imagine how much the original owner of this house loved it. She must have had no choice but to sell it at a low price!
At that time, I was looking to buy a house.
The two of them hadn't eaten yet, so Xue Qing waved her hand and said, "Sister Jiang, let's go to Youranju for dinner."
It was past dinner time, but You Ran Ju was still bustling with activity.
After Xue Qing and Jiang Yi arrived at Youran Residence, they went straight up to the second floor and came to the No. 1 room. Xue Qing thought that no one would be there at this time.
When he opened the door, there was a hint of surprise on Xue Qing's face, while the people in the room were all surprised!
