Chapter 1227 Wandering around Chenzhou Prefecture (2)
In the end, Sun Shan walked around for most of the day until his legs were weak, and he only bought a ceramic doll.
It’s nothing, it’s just Sunjia Village. When people saw this doll for the first time, they all said it looked like a little fat girl.
Sun Shan also thought it looked like it, so he bought it without hesitation.
It’s quite big. I thought I’d give it to the little fat girl to play with when she comes.
Wang Jiaxing was as tired as a pug, but he became energetic the moment he saw the porcelain doll.
His eyes darted back and forth between the chubby porcelain doll and Sun Shan, his face full of gossip.
There is a rumor outside that Lord Sun likes strong women, so Mrs. Sun must be a strong woman, and the babies born by strong women are fat babies.
It is rumored that Mr. Sun’s daughter is fat and has big ears.
Wang Jiaxing stared at the chubby porcelain doll in front of him without blinking.
Emma, what did they say just now? They said this porcelain doll looks like Miss Sun.
Emma, are the rumors true? Is Miss Sun really round-headed?
Of course this is not important. The most important thing is that it indirectly proves that Mrs. Sun is a strong woman.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Lord Sun is indeed just as the legend says, he likes strong women.
This is terrible, this is terrible. Wang Jiaxing felt that he had discovered Lord Sun’s secret.
Emma, if Lord Sun knew that he knew this secret, would he kill people to silence them?
Lord Sun has always been cruel and ruthless!
Sun Shan didn't care what Wang Jiaxing was thinking. He couldn't help but smile while holding the chubby ceramic doll.
He said cheerfully, "It is indeed somewhat similar to Xiaoxiao. Not bad, not bad."
Gui Ge'er also bought a ceramic little black girl doll and agreed: "Brother Shan, yours looks like Xiaoxiao, and mine looks like little black girl. Haha, when we have the chance, we will let them play together."
Sun Dali looked at the two cute porcelain dolls with envy and said enviously, "What a pity, I only have a boy at home. If I had a daughter, I would buy one too."
Wang Jiaxing's gaze shifted from the chubby porcelain doll to the thin, dark porcelain doll.
Emma, this ceramic doll as black as a coal ball actually looks like Brother Gui’s daughter?
Emma, what kind of girl is this? She looks so ugly.
Finally, Wang Jiaxing turned his attention back to the ceramic fat doll.
In comparison, Lord Sun's preference for strong women does have its merits. At least the daughter he gives birth to will be lovable.
Sun Shan looked at the sky and decided that Wang Jiaxing would treat him to lunch and dinner as well.
So he asked, "Mr. Wang, where are we going to have dinner? It's getting late, and we can just go back after dinner."
Wang Jiaxing: ...
Why is he treating us again? We ate in the morning and now we're eating in the afternoon?
There is no such thing in the world.
Wang Jiaxing was about to refuse.
Sun Shan said calmly, "Your grandfather and father were very confident that you would be admitted to Yuelu Academy. When they returned this time and learned that you were not selected, I wonder how heartbroken they must be."
During lunch, Wang Jiaxing finally revealed the purpose of "flattery".
He just wanted to return to Yuanlu County so that Sun Shan could say a few good words for him, to appease his grandfather and father, and make them still have confidence in him.
I have a hope in my heart that I can change my fate like the main branch.
The so-called change of status means either taking up an official position or passing the lowest level of the imperial examination.
Wang Jiaxing was full of hope at first, making his family feel that he had a sure thing. However, reality was cruel, and his hopes of enrolling in a prestigious university were dashed.
The Wang family must be very sad.
At this time, a heavyweight figure is needed to say a few words of comfort to reassure the Wang family.
The heavyweight figure used to be County Magistrate Wang, but now it has been transformed into Lord Sun.
If Sun Shan could say a few words of encouragement, Grandpa Wang and Father Wang would still be full of hope.
Wang Jiaxing knew that Sun Shan's words carried weight, so he tried his best to please him so that he could say a few good words for him.
Sun Shan looked at Guayazi with a smile on his face while eating.
Neither agreeing nor refusing, I'll just trick him into giving me a few meals first. No, I shouldn't say tricking, but rather giving him some benefits first.
When Sun Shan mentioned that he was not selected for Yuelu Academy, Wang Jiaxing was choked and speechless. He had to take Sun Shan to a restaurant in a bad mood.
Sun Shan said with a smile, "Mr. Wang, thank you very much. You are really good at eating. Take us to a nice place to eat."
Wang Jiaxing secretly rolled his eyes at Sun Shan.
Where did he lead it? Sun Shan would go into the room with the most customers.
After walking like this, I arrived at a high-end restaurant and ate a meal that was so delicious that it made me feel heartbroken.
Gui Ge'er was also very happy and said, "Mr. Wang, thanks to you, I was able to have such a delicious meal today. Haha, thank you very much."
Sun Dali clicked his tongue and said with a grin, "Yes, only Mr. Wang knows how to eat and find a restaurant."
Wang Jiaxing: ...
I really wanted to slam the door and run away, leaving Sun Shan and the others to eat and dine for free.
Sun Shan had two good meals and was very satisfied.
When they parted, he patted Wang Jiaxing on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Wang, the food today is very delicious. We'll eat again tomorrow."
When Wang Jiaxing heard this, he bowed randomly, said hello, and ran away without saying a word.
Tomorrow? There will be no tomorrow!
He spent all his pocket money of several months on two meals a day.
No, when I get home, I have to coax my mother and ask her to give me some money to replenish my wallet.
After returning to the post station, Butler Wang immediately reported the gift-giving situation to Sun Shan.
He smiled and said, "Master, the concierge has already accepted the gift."
Just accept it, sometimes I’m more afraid of not accepting it.
Sun Shan nodded. "Well done, Steward Wang."
Butler Wang said with a smile: "Master, these are what I should do, not worthy of praise."
Then he said, "Master, this is the catalog. Take a look. If it's okay, I'll go out and buy it tomorrow."
Sun Shan glanced at it casually and handed the catalog to Butler Wang. "You decide. Since it's cheap, you need it. Take it back here."
Steward Wang responded and said regretfully, "It's a pity that Yuanlu County is too small. The people all know us, so it's not convenient to take some goods back to sell."
Officials are not allowed to do business. Although they can ask their relatives and friends to do it, the space is too small.
Everyone is either familiar with each other or on the way to an acquaintance. When the Sun family does business, the person they think of is definitely Sun Shan. This is too passive and difficult to do.
Besides, Sun Shan hadn't been here long, so it was difficult for him to compete with merchants for profits.
Butler Wang could only secretly regret that he could not make money by selling goods.
Sun Shan also regretted not being able to be a middleman, so he said, "Better safe than sorry. We should be careful with these things. If we don't do it, then don't do it. We'll do it when we have the chance."
After waking up, County Magistrate Shen came over to say goodbye to Sun Shan.
He said sadly, "County Magistrate Sun, we say goodbye today and can only meet again next year. I am really sad that I can no longer discuss poetry with you. Alas, County Magistrate Sun, let's keep in touch through letters."
Sun Shan: ...
I could only pretend to be regretful and say: "The green mountains of Wuling are not far away, and we share the beauty of the moon with our souls. County Magistrate Shen, take care!"
