Chapter 143 No Interest
Chapter 143 No Interest
Chang Wei stepped forward and said, "Let me ask you, last time I asked the matchmaker to come to your house to propose marriage, why did you refuse and even drove them out?"
If we don't talk about this, Jiang Xiaohe could have forgotten about it, but now he still has the nerve to bring it up.
"Master Chang, why do you think I drove them out?"
"I just don't understand, that's why I came to ask you, is it possible that you don't want to marry me?"
Jiang Xiaohe folded her hands: "What do you think? I remember I explained to you before that you were deceived by Jiang Ming and his son, and asked you to stop bothering me, right?"
Chang Wei nodded, but questioned her: "You told them they lied to me, isn't it because you were worried that I would be deceived? You asked me not to bother you, isn't it because we are not in the right relationship? We are in love with each other, and I asked the matchmaker to come to your house, why did you refuse?"
How could he understand it like this?
Jiang Xiaohe widened her eyes, and the words "he is an idiot" kept repeating in Chang Wei's mind many times.
"Who told you that you and I are in love?"
"Didn't you say that?"
I said you are an idiot!
Restraining the urge to get angry, Jiang Xiaohe looked at him and said, "Master Chang, I will make it clear to you today! I, Jiang Xiaohe, will never marry again in this life because of my dead husband! I will not be your concubine! From today on, we will not interfere with each other and will not have any relationship. Do you understand?"
Chang Wei frowned and said, "You rejected my proposal because I asked you to be my concubine?"
Jiang Xiaohe rolled her eyes to the sky. Is his ability to understand so poorly?
"Chang Wei! Are you mentally ill? What I mean is that I have no interest in you at all! I have never thought of marrying you!"
After she yelled this, Chang Wei stopped talking.
He just looked at her with a hurt expression.
Jiang Xiaohe: .....Being looked at like this by a grown man, she felt the hairs all over her body stand up.
"I have nothing to say to you. I have made it clear today. Don't do anything out of line again, lest you tarnish your own reputation and harm others!"
After saying that, Jiang Xiaohe did not stay any longer and went to the backyard with the bucket to water the mushrooms.
Manager Chang also heard most of their conversation. When he saw Jiang Xiaohe leave, he hurried over and called out uncertainly, "Master?"
Chang Wei turned around and left: "Tell Brother Meng that I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, he strode out.
Manager Chang turned around, went into the house and said something, then went after Chang Wei.
Manager Chang followed him silently.
Walking to a secluded place, Chang Wei punched a tree.
"Oh my god, are you okay?"
He hurried over to check the situation, only to see Chang Wei glaring at him.
Why are you staring at him?
Manager Chang pouted and said, "I told you at the beginning that you misunderstood me. I told you not to let the matchmaker come to your house, but you didn't believe me."
Who can be blamed now?
Chang Wei slapped him on the head.
"Did I let you talk?"
You're the one who sews the zipper on your mouth.
Chang Wei looked back at Jiang Xiaohe’s new house.
He snorted, turned around and continued walking away angrily.
After eating and drinking, Meng Hetang stood up and said goodbye.
Jiang Xiaohe sent him to the door.
Meng Hetang asked her in a low voice: "Did my brother say anything to you?"
Jiang Xiaohe smiled but said nothing.
Meng Hetang naturally understood and shook his head slightly: "He is a bit stubborn, but I will persuade him when I get back. I wish my wife a happy new home today."
Jiang Xiaohe imitated the posture of ancient women and bowed slightly: "Thank you, Boss Meng."
Meng Hetang bowed, and then was helped away by the servant.
I asked for help and had an extra meal in the evening. I worked until dark and then went back to my room to sleep.
Wang Dayi and his family stayed here for a few days and then went back. The Chinese New Year was approaching and there were many things to do at home, so they really couldn't delay.
On the other hand, Zeng Hua found a matchmaker to come to Zhang Daniu's house to propose marriage. Zhang Daniu was unwilling at first, so Zeng Hua pulled him into the house and talked to him for a long time before Zhang Daniu nodded in agreement.
Since they agreed to this matter, it was naturally put on the agenda immediately. I heard that the matchmaker arranged for them to meet several people over the next few days.
However, it seems that there is no one I like.
Jiang Xiaohe has been living a much more relaxed life these days. While helping her family make mushroom buns, she bought two books and learned the characters of this era.
The writing of this era is very different from that of her previous life. Since she wants to do business, she naturally has to learn the writing of this era well, otherwise she won’t even know when she gets cheated.
Zhang Fu looked at the mushroom bags piled up in her woodshed, thought for a moment and said, "There are still some bricks left in the backyard. How about building a small house to store the mushroom bags?"
Jiang Xiaohe shook her head: "No, a thatched house like a firewood room is more suitable for the growth of mushrooms."
After she said this, Zhang Fu naturally said nothing more.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, the mushrooms begin to grow wildly.
I'm afraid I can lose hundreds of kilograms a day.
Naturally, the restaurant could not eat all of it, so Jiang Xiaohe asked Meng Hetang to adjust the price of the mushrooms. Now she sold them to him at 25 cents per catty. Whatever his restaurant could not eat, she would sell to others.
Today, when there was a market, she asked Zhang Fu to carry a load of mushrooms to sell in the town. Although they were sold at 35 cents per pound, many people bought them. After all, everyone wanted to try something new. Being able to eat mushrooms in winter was something they could brag about. Therefore, they were sold out in less than half an hour.
The lady who was selling vegetables at the stall before, seeing that her business was so good, couldn't help but lick her face and asked her where the mushrooms came from.
Jiang Xiaohe thought for a moment and told the truth: "This is what my family grew."
"Did your family grow this?" The vegetable seller's voice rose.
Jiang Xiaohe smiled and nodded: "Why? Big sister doesn't believe it?"
"Oh, don't call me big sister or little sister. My last name is Cai Hehua. You can call me Sister Cai."
Jiang Xiaohe nodded: "My last name is Jiang, and my name is Jiang Xiaohe."
Cai Hehua said hesitantly, "Sister Jiang, Sister Cai has an unwelcome request. It depends on whether you agree to it or not."
Jiang Xiaohe had already guessed what she was going to say, but she still smiled and said, "Sister Cai, please go ahead."
Cai Hehua pointed at her empty basket and said, "Can you wholesale some of these mushrooms to me?"
After saying that, he sighed as if he was afraid that Jiang Xiaohe would not agree, "You don't know, there are not many vegetables to sell in winter. All I have all day is either radishes or cabbages. My business is getting worse day by day, so I was thinking, can I get some mushrooms from you to keep this business going."
As she had guessed, Jiang Xiaohe was actually calculating in her heart that she could only sell the goods for 25 wen for wholesale, but could sell them for 35 wen if she sold them herself, which meant a price difference of 10 wen per pound.
