Chapter 30 Go to Songling Town again
After a few days of busyness, it was the delivery date agreed with Zhao Changsheng in a flash.
Zhuang Keqing greeted Aunt Li's family a few days in advance, hoping to borrow Uncle Liu's cart for use.
"You girl, you just borrowed a cart, are you still pushing it?" Aunt Li inserted her waist and scolded her: "I've told her that I'll be with you so I can go with you then, and I can also sell my show work for me!"
Knowing that Aunt Li was kind, Zhuang Keqing stopped refusing. Besides, the cart was bulky, so she really couldn't push it alone. She wanted to go to the Zhang family to ask a young man for help, but since Aunt Li had already made arrangements, then next time.
But this business has to go three times a month, so you can’t ask Uncle Liu to help you every time, so you have to think of a way.
Now in the village, the only ones who can talk to their own family are the Liu family and the Zhang family. It would be better to go to the carpenter's side by yourself, book a cart, and then give the Zhang family some money, just hire someone to go to the town to deliver goods with her.
After making up his mind, Zhuang Keqing didn't tell Aunt Li that she was afraid that Aunt Li would say she was apart, but that she was just asking for help, once or twice. If she took it for granted, she would always get bored over time.
Early in the morning that day, Zhuang Keqing met with Uncle Liu in the old place.
Compared with the last light and light basket, she has a lot of things this time.
Because he had long planned to open up the tofu market in the town, Zhuang Keqing also put in a lot of effort this time. Not only did he prepare the agreed dried tofu skin, but he also filled a thousand new products such as vegetarian chicken. Unfortunately, because he was afraid of bumpy roads and broken shapes, he only brought one board of tender tofu, but there were more old tofu and two boards.
The mother and daughter carried the things onto the cart, and Qin Manzhi stuffed some bread and soy milk to her daughter and Liu Zhuzi.
"Ker will ask you on the way."
Although it was Zhuang Keqing's second time to go to the town, it was not during the big market after all, and there were few people walking along the way, so she was still a little worried.
"Sister Qin, don't worry, I'm here, there won't be any problems. The girl is so capable, I think this time will go smoothly."
Liu Zhuzi understood the mood of being a parent and spoke out for comfort.
"Mom, it's getting late, we have to set off." In the end, Zhuang Keqing spoke, and Qin Manzhi let go and watched the two leave reluctantly.
In fact, she really wanted to go with her daughter, but she had to pay attention to her tofu business at home and Aman had to take care of her. She really couldn't get out of here, so she could only hope that they would be more smooth today and could come back early.
Liu Zhuzi was used to pushing the cart, and Zhuang Keqing had the experience of rushing to the last time, and this time the speed was much faster. Before dawn, the two of them arrived outside the gate of Songling Town.
Today is not a big market day, and the door is much deserted. Two sleepy guards were yawning at the door. When they saw them, they hadtily inspected the goods on the cart and let them in after collecting the money.
"Zhuangyao, should we go to deliver goods first, or sell goods first?" Liu Zhuzi had no idea. Besides, the business was not his own, so he could not make this decision.
"Then let's go to Quanshui Street first. Although it's still early, there are servants at the young master's house. Even if we go early, we can't disturb the master's rest." Zhuang Keqing thought for a while and replied.
"Then let me listen to you." As he said that, Liu Zhuzi caught a breakfast seller on the side of the road, asked the other party about the location of Quanshui Street, pushed the cart and left.
Quanshui Street is located in a place east of Songling Town. It is quite secluded. The entire street is covered with neat bluestone slabs. Some residents have planted flowers and plants at the doors, and some have ornaments, which is quite different from other places in the town.
They came too early and the whole street was not awake yet.
"Which family is the Zhao family?" Liu Zhuzi pushed a cart and searched each household.
When he asked for directions, he didn't know which Zhao family was, so he just asked him to go to Quanshui Street to find it himself. He even said it was obvious at a glance. At this time, he saw that some of the doors of each house had lanterns hanging, some had signs on them, and he guessed that these were the surnames of the residents?
"Oh, we don't know anything. It's early this morning, there are not even people on the street. How can I find the Zhao family?" Liu Zhuzi shook his head in annoyance. He thought that after delivering the goods earlier, he and the girl could still take a good place to sell tofu on the South Street, but now it's not possible.
"Uncle Liu, don't worry, I have the note given by the young master last time, and his name is on it. We will know it when we meet a couple." Zhuang Keqing smiled, pretended to take out the note, pointed to the word Zhao signed on it and started looking for it.
Liu Zhuzi followed behind and sighed.
Otherwise, the daughter-in-law would say that the banker girl was smart, and her brain was much more intelligent than him, and she was just a business man.
Soon, Zhuang Keqing found the Zhao family's door sign.
The family is facing the street's courtyard gate. There are hollow stone lanterns on both sides of the door, with tears in it. There are stone signs hanging on the four corners of the rising stones, and the word Zhao is on it.
It's quite unique.
Zhuang Keqing found it quite interesting.
Uncle Liu, who was behind, stopped the cart aside. She walked forward and patted the lion-mouth copper door buckle on the door.
Not long after, they heard a string of tiny footsteps coming from inside, and then the door opened with a "creak".
The person who came was a young man, who was only in his twenties, and at this moment there were still physical tears shed from yawning in the corner of his eyes.
He tilted his head and saw that there was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl outside the same man, and he was a little confused about what the other party was here to do so early in the morning.
"Are you a delivery person? Why is it so early today?" He rubbed his eyes and stretched his waist.
"You can go through the back door to deliver food, how did you come here?" He glanced at the pile of things on the cart, and said again, "Forget it, let's put things at the door first. I'll let someone carry them later. You can go first."
"Hey? But!" Liu Zhuzi was about to jump up after hearing what the door said.
Someone left after putting things, but the promised money has not been paid yet, and I can't afford it!
When Zhuang Keqing saw the other party talking, he knew that the man didn't know what he was going to deliver the goods today. He grabbed Uncle Liu's sleeve, who was obviously excited, and explained: "This guy, I'm really embarrassed. We made an appointment with the owner of your family to deliver dried tofu. He told me that he would pay the payment for the goods that day."
As she said that, she took out another note from Zhao Changsheng that day and handed it to the door, asking him to take a look.
After hearing the word "dried beans" in my ears, my disciples already understood it, but he still took the note and read it clearly before handing it back to Zhuang Keqing.
"Even so, you will follow me, but you can't walk through the main door next time. I turned around and pointed to the back door and walked from there next time."
Zhuang Keqing and the others nodded and said yes, and then Liu Zhuzi wanted to push the car in.
The door immediately stopped him.
