Chapter 22: Business Opportunities



However……

"Oh, but I'm sorry, I don't know you well, and I don't want to waste my time attending the wedding banquet of someone I don't know well."

"What's wrong with you, woman? I meant well, but why don't you appreciate my kindness?" Chen Xiaocui was furious. This peasant woman was so ungrateful that she actually spoke to her in such a tone!

Tang Li's eyebrows knitted together. Was this a show-off that was taken too far?!

Tang Li was just about to put his hands on his hips and curse at her for three hundred rounds when his hand was grabbed and held in Wei Qing's big palm.

"Wife, don't waste your breath, I'll take care of it." Wei Qing spoke in a very gentle tone.

The gentle voice even stunned Chen Xiaocui.

Chen Xiaocui looked towards him and was stunned. She saw a smile on the man's rough face. The fierceness in his face had disappeared, and he looked handsome and extraordinary.

This fierce man actually has such a gentle side?

The next moment, a bamboo branch hit Chen Xiaocui.

The bamboo branch hit Chen Xiaocui's body hard, it was very spicy, but there was not a trace of the gentleness just now!

“It hurts!”

"Stop smoking!"

Chen Xiaocui screamed, and Wei Qing showed no mercy.

Chen Xiaocui was hit so hard that she quickly ran towards the gate of the yard.

The people were driven away and the yard became quiet.

"Isn't she asking for a beating? Then I'll beat her up."

Wei Qing chuckled, his smile was simple and honest, without any trace of the fierceness he had just shown.

It's really asking for trouble, and it feels great.

Tang Li gave Wei Qing a thumbs up.

Chen Xiaocui ran a long way in one breath.

There was a hole in her silk dress caused by a bamboo branch, which almost made her mad!

"What's there to be so arrogant about! I'm Mrs. Bai San, and you're a cripple, so you'll have to live with a cripple for the rest of your life! You'll be poor all your life!" Chen Xiaocui spat and walked back.

As a result, she stepped on a protruding stone, twisted her ankle, and fell forward.

There happened to be a stinking puddle in front of her, and she fell into it and became a wet drowned chicken. She struggled in the pit for a long time before getting up, looking dirty and smelly!

Doctor Su came to give Wei Qing acupuncture every day. Tang Li originally wanted Wei Qing to lie down and have a good rest, but Wei Qing couldn't lie down at all. He ran to the yard when she wasn't paying attention.

Tang Li asked Doctor Su, and since this would not affect his recovery, he let him go.

Wei Qing was weaving bamboo baskets and soon he had a tall pile.

"Why are you working so hard?"

"When I earn ten taels of silver, I will buy you a silk dress." Wei Qing said.

Chen Xiaocui's arrival only gave Wei Qing one idea, which was to earn money to buy nice clothes for his wife. If others had them, he would work hard to let his wife have them too. He would never let his wife down!

He is lame now and earns little money, so he buys some clothes for his wife first. When his leg gets better, he will try his best to buy whatever his wife wants!

Wei Qing was full of ambition, and his men weaved bamboo baskets even faster.

Tangli's heart was also warm. They say that when choosing a man, it's not about how rich he is, but how much he is willing to spend on you. How much a man is willing to spend on you can show how much he cares about you. From this perspective, the villain is definitely a good man!

During these two days, Tangli accompanied Wei Qing in weaving bamboo baskets, and then went to the river to catch some fish to supplement the family's meals.

In a blink of an eye, five days have passed.

Tang Li guessed that the owner of the Weaver Girl Shop should have a reply, so he planned to go to the town.

This matter is related to making money, and she is very nervous.

She first went to Doctor Su's house and brought all the embroidery made by Mrs. Su.

Mrs. Su and Doctor Su stood at the door, watching Tang Li walk towards the village entrance, his figure getting smaller and smaller.

Fu Qing has been working very hard these past few days, finishing three pieces of embroidery in just five days, a pace that's almost catching up with her peak work. The thought of earning money and no longer being a burden to her husband fills her with energy.

But, in reality, she was a little uneasy.

"Husband, do you think the Tangli can be sold?"

She was really afraid that her joy was in vain. After all, it was really difficult to sell embroidery in this small town.

Doctor Su held her shoulders and shielded her from the wind. "It's OK. She can even spot silver bell grass. What else can't she do?"

From Doctor Su's perspective, there are two different people in this ordinary Lijia Village, one is Wei Qing and the other is Tang Li.

Tangli came to the town and went straight to the Weaver Girl's Workshop.

The shopkeeper from last time happened to be there, and his eyes lit up when he saw Tangli.

"Girl, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for several days!" said the shopkeeper.

He asked Tangli to sit in the inner room and looked into Tangli's package.

When Tangli saw his performance, he knew there was good news!

"Shopkeeper, I brought all the embroidery." Tang Li said, then unpacked the package, took out two pieces of embroidery from it and handed them to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took it and looked at it carefully.

He was a little worried at first because the little girl gave him a sample that day, and the embroidery was good, but the rest of the goods were not so good. But now he sees that there is actually no difference between good and bad, and each one has its own characteristics.

"Girl, can I see the rest?"

When doing business, one must be generous. Tang Li handed over the package: "Take a look!"

The shopkeeper carefully looked at each embroidery piece and liked every one of them.

"Boss, what's the price for these embroidery products?" Tang Li asked.

When asked about the price, the shopkeeper hesitated: "Girl, wait a minute."

etc?

Could it be that something unexpected happened?

Tang Li's heart skipped a beat. Judging from the shopkeeper's appearance, he didn't look like the kind of person who would cheat or deceive people.

At this moment, the curtain at the door was suddenly lifted, and a young man in white walked in from outside.

The young man looked to be in his early twenties, with his hair tied up with a jade hairpin and handsome features. However, he was too thin, his face was pale, and he looked a little sickly.

He had a touch of elegance about him, and it was obvious that he was born into an extraordinary family. He was a sickly and beautiful young man.

When the shopkeeper saw him, he quickly stood up and said respectfully, "Big Shopkeeper."

He then introduced Tang Li: "Miss, this is the head shopkeeper of our Weaver Girl Workshop, Master Bai Muyang."

"Hello, Master Bai. My name is Tangli, and I'm from Lijia Village in Qinghe County."

Tang Li greeted Bai Muyang with a neither humble nor arrogant tone, and his manners were generous, without any rusticity at all.

This made Bai Muyang look at him with a new respect.

Bai Muyang has traveled all over the country and has seen strong business women before. What surprised him was that there was such a woman in this remote place.

"Hello, Miss Tang. It took me a while to get here from the mansion. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

"Mr. Bai, you're welcome."

The shopkeeper handed the embroidery to Bai Muyang: "Master Bai, these are the new embroidery that Miss Tang brought."

Bai Muyang sat down, picked up the embroidery pieces and looked at them with the same serious expression.

"I heard from Lin Dong that this embroidery was not made by you, but by your elder sister. Speaking of which, the stitches on this embroidery remind me of someone... but I guess she's no longer with us." Bai Muyang smiled. "Miss, I'll give you a price for these embroidery pieces. Ten taels of silver for the big ones, five taels for the small ones. We'll charge a flat rate to save you the trouble."

Tangli's eyes suddenly widened.

Is it so... valuable?
