Liu Xianglan's face turned green and red after being told by her sister, and her heart was really depressed when she made a wrong bet, now she had to please Xu He, she was used always bossing people around, of course she felt uncomfortable.

But she also felt that what her sister said was the truth, she didn't think too much when she invited someone last time, and now she had suffered a lot of bad luck, she sighed, the glorious days of the past were really gone forever.

"Don't mention the matter of letting Shaochun go to the tea shed. He just opened his shop, and you, a mother, didn't help him at all and still rushed to get something. Let alone his own mother, you are still his adoptive mother, who will be happy with your behavior."

Liu Xianglan said: "I’m also worried about Shaochun, she lives a hard life at Fei's house everyday, she does so much work and she still doesn't get a good result "

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. can you protect her for the rest of your life?, you can't do it. You have to let her make it through this day."

Liu Xiangmei said: "If you really care for her, then live your life honestly and don't even think about fighting with that wife of the Fei family. It's important to let Shaochun blow the pillow wind and ask Fei Lian to find something to do on his own. He's already in his prime, and he is not a young master from a rich family, what's the point of blindly letting the family support him. "

" If you don't make money yourself, you will never be hardened for the rest of your life."

Liu Xianglan resentfully said: "okay, I'll do it first. "

But it was his aunt, as expected for someone woh had been struggling in the city for many years. Although he is more philistine than many people, he is still a person who can understand clearly. Although she was unscrupulous compared to many people, she was still a clear-eyed person after all.

Zhang Fangyuan finished the work very early today, and he was lucky. After he left the stall, an old buyer who always came to his stall to buy mountain goods came. The family had a big business to do, so he bought all the meat from his stall.

It was the first time for him to meet such a buyer, and he was lucky enough to get some benefits when he helped to deliver the meat to the owner's house. He bought another piece of ice on the side of the road, and went back to the tea shed without eating in the city for lunch.

He wanted to tell Xu He about his good luck today, but no one came back, so he remembered that Xu He went to Xu’s house today.

He had explained it to him beforehand, and he was not afraid the Xu family would embarrass him. The tea shed was busy at noon, so he helped Zhang Shiyue to greet the guests.

When he was free, he scooped up a bowl of tea and went to the mat outside to drink his tea, peeled the melon seeds, and greeted someone who was passing by.

"Ayuan, He ge’er stockpiled some watermelons yesterday and put them in the well to cool down. The weather is getting hot at noon. You can tell the guests if someone want to buy them."

"Okay." Zhang Fangyuan responded, he went to the well behind the tea shed to fish take the watermelons. When the tea shed was built earlier, he considered that it might be inconvenient to drink water in this place, so he paid the two brothers of the Chen family two days' wages to dig a well together. Now it was convenient to use.

The plump watermelon was cool, just like the one taken out of the ice cellar. He patted it lightly, with a very skillful sound. He could smash the watermelon open with only half a fist, but it was for sale after all, and it would not look good when he smashed it open.

Taking it to the chopping board outside the tea shed, he cut a whole watermelon evenly into twelve pieces with a kitchen knife, and then cut it into twenty-four pieces. “Second aunt, I cut it up, you come out and eat it. "

"I've been here all day to cool down, neither hot nor thirsty."

Zhang Fangyuan was about to say something more, when he suddenly smelled a familiar fragrance, and immediately a short man with a burden ran in: "Brother, how do you sell this watermelon?"

"One piece for three copper coins." The man put down his burden, took out three copper coins and asked for a piece. The watermelon was put in the well before, and it was cold and sweet, and the juice was rich, very refreshing and quenching thirst.

The man ate a piece of watermelon in one go, feeling a little unsatisfied, but he didn't continue to ask for it. Instead, he chatted with Zhang Fangyuan who was drinking tea at the table.

"Brother is a butcher?"

Zhang Fangyuan glanced at the man: "You have good eyesight."

"In the past, there was a butcher across from my house. When I had nothing to do, I just watched him trim the meat. The eldest brother's knife skills are not what ordinary people can do. Besides..."

The man sniffed, hehe  he said: "There is something on your body. The smell of livestock."

Zhang Fangyuan couldn't help but frowned when he heard that, Xu He liked to be clean and didn't like the smell on his body. He looked for the place where some water was boiled behind the tea shed. He fumbled to boil some water and rinse it in the hut behind the tea shed, it was cool and deodorized.

There was nothing to do with the hot summer weather. People who did business like them were not as decent as those young masters with horse carriage.

Without waiting for him to speak again, the man hastily said: "I have some good stuff over here, the smell is really good.”

Before Zhang Fangyuan could say whether to look at it or not, the man opened the burden he carried, and quickly took out a small porcelain bottle from inside. Before he could get close to it, the man lifted the lid, and immediately a scent spread out, very fragrant.

"It's hard to find this bottle of fragrance dew. Just drip it on the skirt or your clothes, and it will smell fragrant for a half months. It's very good thing for brother to use."

Zhang Fangyuan held the small porcelain bottle and sniffed it carefully. If you got too close, the smell would become greasy, but if you smelled it from a distance, even if it was sealed in a bottle, there was still a faint fragrance.

His eyebrows moved slightly. If he remembered correctly, this fragrance dew was called "Rose Water".
