Chapter 48 Expedited Delivery
Song Ming was hesitant after hearing this.
Shen Xia looked at Song Ming and then at Song Jiang. There was nothing that could not be said.
Song Jiang looked at Shen Xia's serious and curious expression.
He took a deep breath and said, "It is said that our eldest sons are too unlucky."
After saying that, she looked at Shen Xia with a worried expression, afraid that she would mind, because she almost died just a few days after getting married.
Song Jiang and Song Ming actually didn't want to say it, but as long as the fourth room was in the village for one day, she would hear it sooner or later.
"Ah! This is nonsense." Shen Xia was speechless.
"Because my father had passed away at that time. My eldest brother, who is 20 years old now, was only 12 years old at that time. They said that my mother gave birth to five sons in one go. Which family is like my mother? You can tell at a glance that she has several sons who are too strong."
"As a result, the third brother of the fourth house was turned into a mentally retarded person, and now my father has also been killed, so they drove all of us out."
I've only heard of that person having a strong horoscope, but I've never heard of several people with strong horoscopes who would do anything to occupy the big wife's house.
After Shen Xia heard this, she felt extremely distressed. At that time, her mother had just lost her husband and was still living alone with five children.
It was so hard. Xiaowu was only four years old at that time, Song Yun should be seven years old, the third brother was eight years old, and the second brother was only ten years old.
Fortunately, my eldest and second brothers are able to work, otherwise I don’t know how the family would survive.
"Then how did your father die?"
"Dad runs a small business, selling things from one side to another, and then selling things from another side to this side."
"Once when we were transporting goods, there was a rainstorm and three people in the team were washed into the river and they were never rescued,"
"It means that you didn't see the body."
"Yes." Song Ming said.
"How can we be sure he's dead without even seeing the body?"
"Because the bodies of the other two were found downstream, and the water was too fast, they could not survive at all. Maybe Dad's body floated farther, and it is difficult to convey the information now." Song Jiang explained.
"Oh,"
"Second brother, don't be sad. Our lives will get better and better in the future, and mother's hard days are over." Shen Xia looked at his second brother's sad face and comforted him.
"That's right," Xiaowu also said.
Because I was young, I didn’t know a lot of things. I only knew that the people in the fourth room were bad and always bullied us, but I didn’t know why.
As for why she only comforted the second brother and not the eldest brother, it was because the eldest brother often did not show his emotions on his face, and Shen Xia could not see that the eldest brother was sad.
After a few people recovered their emotions.
"Xiaowu and Xiaotian, is there anything you want to buy? Your sister is the host today," Shen Xia said generously. Miss Shen will pay for everything today.
"I'm not buying anything. I just want to go out and have a look with my sister. I haven't been to a market yet." Xiaowu said seriously.
"Me too, no, my sister has done enough for me."
"Then let's go shopping together and see what's available at the market." Shen Xia said. Seeing that he said he didn't want to buy anything, she didn't say much. She decided to wait and see. If there was anything they liked, she would buy it from them.
Because the town was not big, the five of them walked around together. They didn't buy anything, so they walked and strolled towards Tianxinzhai.
It will be here in a moment.
Shen Xia looked at the Tian Xin Zhai in front of him and said, "Let's go! Let's get down to business."
"Okay." Xiaotian.
"Okay," Five.
As I walked to the door of the store, I saw a woman I didn't recognize.
The woman frowned and looked at Shen Xia. Although she didn't look down on him, she still said, "What do you need, sir?"
"You don't need anything. I'll go find Miss Pink."
"What do you want from her? She's not in the store now." When the little girl heard it was Taohong, her attitude improved a little.
"I'm her friend," Shen Xia said.
"Oh, then she hasn't been in the store these two days. She's out looking for someone."
"Who are you looking for?" Shen Xia asked.
"I can't tell you this." The woman said defensively.
Shen Xia couldn't ask anything, so she thought of leaving a message: "My name is Shen Xia, when Taohong comes back, tell her that I was here."
After saying that, Shen Xia planned to leave.
As a result, the woman behind him excitedly asked: "Wait, what's your name!"
"Shen Xia." Shen Xia looked at the woman in front of her in confusion. Is she so excited?
"Brother Xiaowu, do you think she looks like a mouse seeing food?" Xiaotian asked curiously.
"Like," Xiaowu nodded in agreement.
The woman pointed at Shen Xia excitedly and said, "Is it true that it takes no effort to wear out shoes?"
"Ah?" This time it was Shen Xia's turn to be confused. Was she scolding me?
Only Song Jiang spoke quietly: "I have searched everywhere for something, but I have found it without any effort."
"Yes, yes, yes, that's right," and then she excitedly pulled Shen Xia and said, "Taohong is here to look for you. She's been waiting at the head and tail of the town for the past two days to see if you'll come to town."
"What do you want from me?" Shen Xia asked.
"They said that the city was out of stock. I received a letter two days ago asking you to hurry up and ship the goods, but I didn't have your contact information, so I went to the beginning and end of the town these two days to see if I could see you."
"You guys wait here first, she should be back soon." The woman greeted them warmly.
There was no longer the previous scrutiny, and his eyes were full of respect.
I heard from Taohong that this dragon beard pastry is very expensive, and a box of it costs several taels of silver in the city.
This dragon beard pastry was made by the woman in front of me. I guess their family should be well off, so why is she dressed so low-key?
It's not noticeable at all, and I almost offended people, but it's okay.
I heard that the girl has two brothers. Could they be the two in front of me?
The woman secretly looked at the two of them when no one was paying attention. They both looked good.
I silently made a note in my heart that I would soon be fifteen, and if my cousin hadn't asked me to help in the store this time, my mother would have married me off.
I was so happy that I didn't want to marry a country guy. I wanted to marry someone in town.
It really didn't take long.
Taohong came back dejected.
Finally walked into the store.
"Shen Xia, you're finally here. I would have gone crazy if I couldn't find you." Tao Hong saw Shen Xia's face full of stars.
"This time you must tell me where you are from, or I will kill you."
"I'm from Fanhua Village," Shen Xia said quickly.
"I see. It will be convenient to find you next time." Taohong nodded.
"You don't know! Two days ago, the shopkeeper in the city sent a pigeon message saying that the dragon beard crisps were sold out in one day after they were brought back to the city."
"The shopkeeper told me to find you quickly to add more goods." Tao said excitedly.
"Taohong, don't get excited. Talk slowly." Shen Xia soothed.
"You can't just add more of this, and it's not like you can just have it when you have it. It takes five days to produce the raw materials."
"But after delivering the goods to your company last time, I didn't know how your shipment would go, so I still made some preparations."
"There are only about 400 packages. The rest will be available in six days. There's no point in being anxious."
When Taohong heard this, her brows furrowed.
There are only 400 packages, and it will take three days to reach the city. Even if we produce in large quantities, the next batch of goods will take nine days to arrive in the city. What should I do?
The boss also asked Manager Xu to ship the goods as soon as possible.
