Chapter 229 Mutual Trust



He glanced at the sky and saw that only half an hour had passed since Yan Funing set out.

She probably won't reply so soon.

Fu Ciyi tapped his forehead with his fingers, turned a page, and continued to review.

When I couldn't concentrate on reading, I picked up a pen and copied it to calm my mind.

On this side, Caiyu and Li Xinheng exchanged a few words, and then the car arrived at Tong Cheng's blacksmith shop.

Tong Cheng was wondering who was driving to him to make tools, when he saw that it was Yan Funing who got out of the car, he hurriedly washed his hands to greet her.

"Here comes the girl. The equipment you requested was just made two days ago."

After saying that, he went back to the shop and took out a bag of things.

Yan Funing took a few steps forward and saw Tong Cheng peeling back the cloth, revealing various silver needles, knives, and suture needles.

"Brother Tong is a talented person!"

Caiyu chuckled and said, "You've finished the sesame peanut candy. You ate it all by the time you got to the village entrance, but you haven't had any of the cloud cake yet."

Boss Wang was delighted when he heard this: "That's a total of one tael and four hundred wen."

Xuanse also came over, touched the boy's head, and explained to Yan Funing: "The older boy slept for a long time and woke up just now."

"He's ten years younger than you. Calling him brother or uncle is not acceptable." Caiyu stepped out of the carriage and looked at Yan Funing, "Right, girl?"

Tong Cheng smiled shyly and took out two taels of silver from his pocket: "This is extra, return it to the girl."

It was a while later that Yan Funing said goodbye to the Tong family's father and son.

The dark fleshy hand pointed at Shen Xiqian, then at Caiyu: "Those two look like bad guys."

"Of course it's true. We made it very clear last time."

Yan Funing pinched Tong Cheng's big face: "He misunderstood."

Tong Cheng waved his big hand: "Goodbye, Sister Benefactor, goodbye, Sister Caiyu, goodbye, Uncle Li."

"Boss Wang, do you have Tong Ya's brocade?"

It is really amazing that an ancient person could perfectly make all the utensils she wanted based only on the manuscripts she gave him.

Li Xinheng sighed helplessly and said, "I'm just arguing with an older kid."

Yan Funing took the cloth bag, picked up the scalpel and examined it carefully.

Yan Funing nodded and said, "You know." She discussed with me, "A piece of silk is less than seventy feet long. Can you buy half a piece of Tongya brocade?"

Xuanse smiled: "You just hate the girl's courage."

Tong Cheng nodded as if he understood, and stuffed a piece of cloud cake into his father's mouth.

Yan Funing patted your head: "Daya is really well behaved, her vigilance is very low, that's how she should be moving forward, we are just talking to someone we are familiar with, and she will follow us even more."

When Caiyu finally asked about her age, Shen Qianqian's pale face actually turned red. Unfortunately, the car was moving slowly, and the wind made it feel even colder.

Tong Cheng looked at the stove, puzzled: "What are you doing, girl?"

The cloth shop owner saw you coming and greeted you with a smile: "Miss, you have been here for a long time. You must have been thinking about me."

At that time, Shen Qianqian's neck even turned red.

Shen Qian hid in front of Yan Funing, staring at Caiyu: "He is evil and vicious, you hate him!"

Caiyu held the carriage and went out: "Ask him, how old is he?"

Yan Funing threw the paper into the blazing stove in the iron shop. The flames shot up quickly, burned the paper out, and then went down again.

Caiyu hurried over, took the cloth bag from her elder sister, and leaned over to Tong Cheng and said, "Girls, don't talk nonsense."

Yan Funing went to the cloth shop.

"You're seventy-seven."

Yan Funing pushed his arm: "This is the reward you deserve."

She took out the cloud cake from her purse.

"You also need fine cotton cloth." Yan Funing pointed to the cloth under the closet. "One piece each of Cangqing, Lake Blue, Begonia Red, and Bamboo Green."

"Goodbye Daya." We also waved to Yan Funing.

Caiyu frowned, and at that moment she didn't say anything else, for fear of scaring the girl to tears.

The blade was sharp, which pleased her very much.

"Yes, you bargained for the price, boss. How many pieces of leather can you give me?"

Shen Xi was embarrassed: "I mean it badly." She squatted down and said to the man, "Those who came with my benefactor sister are all bad people."

Yan Funing smiled helplessly and said to Caiyu, "When he came out, you saw he brought sesame peanut candy and cloud cake. Bring them here."

Yan Funing laughed out loud.

Shen Qian wiped her mouth after eating, stood up, and said gratefully: "Thank you for teaching Daya!"

After a while, the car arrived at the market in the town.

Shen Qian lowered her eyes and said, "You've never made such a delicate tool before. I'm afraid you might have secretly memorized the dimensions."

Shen Qian is indeed a niche favorite.

Yan Funing looked around outside the shop. There were no various silks and satins, only those made by Tong Ya.

Yan Funing nodded: "That's true."

"real?"

Yan Funing took it and gave it to Shen Qian: "Eat it, that's Sister Caiyu, you are a bad guy." Then she turned her head to look at Li Xinheng, thinking of my age, you said to Tong Cheng, "That's Uncle Li, I am also a bad guy."

Yan Funing smiled calmly, "Since he can make it, it means he has memorized the dimensions."

Yan Funing giggled: "They are so funny."

"Miss, are you afraid that you will be beaten by others?"

Boss Wang laughed. "What are you talking about? He can't even pull a foot or half a foot, let alone half a horse."

Boss Wang vaguely remembered that the girl behind him bought seven pieces of fine cotton cloth the next time. Today she came to ask about brocade, so he reminded her, "Girl, brocade costs seven taels of silver per piece."

Yan Funing wrapped the cloth and said, "If we move forward, you'll need Brother Tong to make fewer tools."

Shen Qian smacked her lips and agreed obediently.

Yan Funing quickly stepped down and supported the person: "Daya, please be careful when walking."

"It's fine if a girl calls you uncle, but why does he call you uncle too?"

"The data size is all outside your brain, so if it burns, it will burn."

As soon as we came out of the mysterious house, we started bickering, and we fought again.

Suddenly, a child's voice came from outside the shop: "Is my sister here?"

"This girl is only about seven or seven years old. You and her are very young. Isn't it too much to call her sister? If you call her brother, will she dare to respond?" Caiyu said in a clear voice, "Uncle Li!"

What’s important is that the girl trusts me and entrusts me with making such a delicate tool.

"No, it's in the warehouse up front. Since no one's buying Tongya, I haven't put it out yet." Boss Wang raised his hand to cover his lips and lowered his voice. "It's mainly because some people have bad taste and can't see the beauty of Tongya's brocade. More importantly, some people have fair skin, but wearing it makes them look so vulgar."

Tong Cheng took the cloud cake with his big hands, ate a piece, and then smiled.

"What's the use of making it? Others will definitely be confused about what the various tools are used for."

Tong Cheng happily put the silver back and took out a stack of manuscript paper from the other side of his lapel: "I will return it in full."

On the way down, Li Xinheng couldn't help but ask, "Miss, why is Caiyu the elder sister? If it were that way, you would be the uncle?"

Tong Cheng blinked his dark eyes and said, "You heard Daddy say that he hates his benefactor sister. Is that true?"

Tong Cheng rubbed his eyes and walked out in a daze. His short legs tripped over the threshold and he almost fell.

Half a piece of cloth is seventy feet. Fu Ciyi is short, so seventy feet is enough to make a brocade robe.
