Chapter 8 Chapter 68 Purchasing

At noon, Ding Hao came back from the city with a few people. Today he went to the city to buy a batch of household items for the inner house according to the purchase list, and went to the pharmacy to get some medicine for his old lady. He just came back. Purchasing needs to know the market price, deal with merchants, talk about business, learn about the special products in the north and south, and understand the texture and difference of the same product in different places. The accumulation of these experiences is of great benefit to him. This kind of free internship opportunity Ding Hao How could he let it go so easily, so he worked very hard. In the eyes of outsiders, it seemed that he was grateful for Master Ding's promotion, and he was going to work hard in the Ding family for the rest of his life.

As soon as Ding Hao entered Ding's mansion, he happened to see Aunt Li coming out of the courtyard on the left side. Ding Hao stopped and said hello to her: Madam. Oh, it's Haoer.Aunt Li said with a full smile: I just went to see your mother, and she has been recuperating well for a while now. Seeing that her complexion has improved, I feel relieved.You just came back from town? Yes, went to town to buy some things, and I'm about to send them to the back house. Oh, then you are busy, you are busy, hehe, I still have something to do, so I should go back.Before saying goodbye, Aunt Li didn't say anything to him, she greeted him with a smile and walked away.Ding Hao asked San Zhu'er to carry the purchased things with him to various places to deliver the purchased items one by one, and finally came to the residence of the family members in the back house.

As soon as he entered the inner house, a delicate voice called him from afar: Brother Hao, can I buy back the rouge pollen? Damn, Brother Huanhao, you thought you were Rong'er.I don't even look at your pouty thick lips, are you too sexy?Ding Hao frowned when he heard the voice. The person who came was the Lan'er girl who led Ding Hao to meet Ding Tingxun when he first came to the inner house. In fact, Lan'er was tall and tall, with a slender waist and bulging breasts. , a bit ridiculously thick.Ding Hao hated this snobbish woman from the bottom of his heart, so when he looked at her shortcomings, he magnified them infinitely. When he saw her thick lips, he wished he could give her a whirlwind kick and immediately kick her out of his sight.

Ding Hao hummed indifferently and said: "I don't know what Miss Lan wants. Anyway, I have all the things listed on the shopping list. After Miss Lian counts, Miss Lan'er will pick them up again." It's not too late for what you want. Lan'er touched a soft nail, her face turned red with embarrassment.It stands to reason that the girls in the inner courtyard are relatively arrogant. When Ding Hao said so, she would turn around and leave even if she couldn't turn her face on the spot, but she was not annoyed. I don't know if it is because Ding Hao is now in the family. The celebrity was in charge, she couldn't afford to offend her, she obediently agreed, winked at Ding Hao, and then flew away like a house sparrow.

After a while Miss Lian heard the news and rushed over. Miss Lian was the maid in charge of the upper room, in charge of Mrs. Ru, Mrs. Ru, as well as the supply of various items for the servants and maids.She is a big girl in her early twenties, dignified and quiet, gentle and delicate, because she is a capable person in front of the wife, so far she has not been let out of the inner house to find a man to marry. Miss Lian brought Ding Hao into the flower hall, and counted the items bought in the upper house one by one. Some of the special items, Ding Hao also specially explained their origin and background.Ding Hao was eloquent and eloquent, and he was definitely not an objectionable master when he spoke. Miss Lian nodded frequently, obviously very satisfied with him.

After the order was cleared and the signature was signed, Ding Hao took out a small box from his arms, pointed at Miss Lian, and smiled slightly.As soon as the small box was taken out, a high-quality fragrance overflowed. Miss Lian's eyes lit up, and then she said reservedly: "Boss Ding, what is this? The things purchased in the inner house seem to have been ordered." right? Ding Hao smiled and said: Hehe, Sister Lian, I bought a lot of things this time, so I lowered the price severely with the shopkeeper, and bought a box of rouge for my sister with the saved money. This is the best rouge specially made by Jiangnan Huanhuafang Nine-flower jade dew, as long as you pick a little bit to hit your face, it will be as beautiful as a peach blossom.

Miss Lian took the rouge, opened the lid to take a look, and saw that it was very bright and sweet, and she smiled slightly in her eyes, but handed the rouge back to him, shaking her head and sighing: "It's hard to be sorry for Guanshi Ding's kindness."The servants are all old girls, what are they doing with these things? The times are different. In my time, many twenty-year-old girls were still sluts who didn't know anything.But she is already feeling sorry for herself, and her boudoir resentment is faint Ding Hao smiled wryly to himself, and hurriedly said: "What do you mean by that? Miss Lian is as beautiful as a flower, she looks like a person of eighteen, if she dresses up a bit, she will be twenty-eight years old, who dares to say that Miss Lian is an old name, then He really has no eyes.

Oh, but you can make people happy. Only then did Miss Lian show a smile on her face, and she glanced at her with joy.A twenty-year-old girl is actually just matured, and she has just revealed a little bit of a woman's style. A look that is not intentionally provocative, already reveals a very charming. Apply powder to the face, apply it to the cheeks, the thick one is wine dizzy, and the light one is Feixia.Apply it to the lips, a little bit of red lips, the peach blossoms are in abundance.As the saying goes, swords are given to heroes, and red powder is given to beauties. This box of nine-flower jade dew is given to Miss Lian. I wish Miss Lian a younger life. She will be 20 this year and eighteen next year.

Seeing her happy, Ding Hao gave her the words of the owner of the rouge shop while the iron was hot, and said a modern advertising slogan that would definitely refresh her eyes, which made Miss Lian smile with joy. Ding Hao just put it away and got up. leave. If he became friends with this Miss Lian, he wouldn't be afraid of a girl like Lan'er chewing on his tongue.But the old girl looked at Wen Jing, but her temperament was actually moody, and her face would turn sour when she might say something that violated her taboo.Moreover, Miss Lian stands out among the many smart girls in the back house, and she has become the most popular celebrity around the wife, how can she be a person without scheming?Ding Hao wanted to have a good relationship with her, but he absolutely didn't want to have any further development with such a difficult woman.

Miss Lian put the rouge in her sleeves and sent him out with a slight smile.As soon as the two of them went out one after the other, they saw a graceful young woman walking towards them. This young woman has dark black silk and high hair, a butterfly-shaped jade-inlaid anklet, wearing a light purple collar with narrow sleeves, a mermaid skirt inside, and a pair of light boots made of silk with plum patterns on her feet. When walking, the body is straight and shoulder-flat, and the pure and beautiful appearance is like a pure lotus floating on the water. When Ding Hao saw it, he hurriedly stepped aside and bowed to salute. Miss Lian also bowed and bowed: "Young Madam

The person who came was Lu Xiangwu, daughter-in-law of Ding's parents.She stopped in her tracks and asked in a soft voice: "Guard Ding, did you come back from shopping?" yes. Oh, is what I want available? Yes, the things that the young lady asked for have already been bought and returned, and they have just been handed over to Miss Lian. Miss Lian hurriedly stepped forward and said: Young Madam, the "Miaofa Lotus Sutra" you want has been invited back, and this servant is about to send it to you later.This scripture was transcribed by the monk Zhishen of Daxiangguo Temple in Kaifeng on the paper of Jiangnan Chengxintang. It is an extremely rare Buddhist treasure scroll. The merchants in Bazhou city only bought such a book, and Ding Guanshi got it. Since then, Xin'er has put down a deposit early, and only then did she get ahead of many people and invite this "Lotus Flower Sutra" to our house. She accepted Ding Hao's benefits and was happy to be flattered by him, so she naturally wanted to speak well for him. After hearing this, Lu Xiangwu glanced at Ding Hao with his almond eyes, and expressed a bit of joy on his face, thanking him: "Guan Ding has a heart." Young Madam, you don't have to be polite, this is Ding Hao's job.Ding Hao cupped his hands and smiled.Thinking that she was young, asking for Buddhist scriptures must be because her husband was seriously injured, and he prayed for him to purify his heart, so Ding Hao had some sincere respect for her, and Ding Hao and Ding's young master Ding Chengzong did not have any feuds. She had never shown her face very much, and the two of them were not familiar with each other. Seeing her being polite and courteous, Ding Hao treated her respectfully. Mrs. Lu pursed her lips, sighed again, and was about to leave, when a strange voice suddenly sounded: "Hey, who is this?"It turned out to be Steward Ding, I haven't seen you for a few days, Steward Ding is full of spring now Ding Hao sighed helplessly, he didn't need to raise his head to know that it must be the young master Ding Er who had arrived.Sure enough, Ding Chengye swayed three times, and led Yan Jiu, who looked like a hubby, slowly swaying towards him. Both the master and the servant had mean smiles on their faces. It's a pity that his handsome face made him laugh out loud. The slut that the grandma doesn't kiss and the uncle doesn't love
