Chapter Twenty-Nine: Professions Are Neither Distinguished nor Inferior

(Ask for recommendation, ask for collection)

Following.

"What do you think?"

After a gorgeous turn, Guo Dan looked at Xi'er expectantly.

Xi'er opened her eyes wide, looked at Guo Dan seriously, and after a while, she whispered: "Uncle's dress is like a miscellaneous person." ”

She suddenly closed her mouth tightly and looked at Guo Dan worriedly.

Guo Dan laughed and said: "What are you afraid of, you say this, it proves that my hard work is not in vain." ”

Xi'er was curious: "But why did my uncle work hard to pretend to be a miscellaneous man?" ”

Guo Dan smiled and said: "Because from today on, I will go to the store to do chores, which was ordered by my father-in-law." ”

Xi'er became even more curious after hearing this, and said with a strange face: "The master asked my uncle to do chores, why is my uncle still so happy?" ”

Guo Dan didn't answer and asked: "Let me ask you, are you happy when you serve me tea and water every day?" ”

Xi'er nodded, and said, "But Xi'er is different from your uncle." ”

"What's the difference?"

Guo smiled lightly: "We are all working, no matter what kind of work it is, as long as we work hard to complete our work and get our own rewards with peace of mind, this is a thing worth being happy about." Besides, if you can't even serve tea and water, I don't think you can do anything else. ”

Xi'er said thoughtfully: "What my uncle said seems to be right. ”

Guo smiled lightly and said, "I'm going to the store to do things, let's work together, haha!" ”

The Kou family's house is behind the alley, and the storefront is facing the street, which is also the standard configuration of the wealthy merchants.

Having said that it has been so long, this Guo Dan is still the first time to go back to the store.

"Uncle, you're here."

The cautious Kou Yi waited in front of the store early in the morning.

Guo smiled lightly: "I'm not late, am I?" ”

"Nope! No! ”

Kou Yi shook his head again and again, and took Guo Dan into the storefront.

The inside is very spacious, just like those big restaurants, the decoration is also very atmospheric, there are all kinds of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, porcelain and bronze are placed everywhere, there are two rows of long tables on both sides, and more than 20 tooth people sit behind the long tables, or write something, or prepare materials, or talk to each other.

All seem to be very professional.

This made Guo Dan feel a little bit like returning to the company to work.

However, when everyone saw Guo Dan coming, none of them got up to say hello, and even many frowned, just because Guo Dan had been in charge here, and the result was that they lost a lot of commissions, how could they give Guo Dan a good look, and the status of the son-in-law was not high.

"Look, our uncle is here again."

"Alas... How long has it been? ”

"Don't worry, I heard from the big butler, he just did some chores when he came back, so we don't have to listen to him."

"I'm afraid that he will be in a hurry and make trouble for us."

"Yes! He's been in Yaxing for so long, and if he has done anything, chores are also jobs, let's just wait and see his jokes. ”

......

Kou Yi heard their whispers in his ears, and coughed heavily.

The tooth men reacted immediately, quickly shut their mouths, and pretended to be busy.

Kou Yi secretly glanced at Guo Dan again, and Guo Dan also happened to see, only to hear Guo Danmu ask: "Housekeeper, what am I responsible for?" ”

Charge? When Kou Yi heard this word, he felt pressured and hurriedly explained it to Guo Dan.

In fact, it is similar to the affairs of later generations of clerks, there are guests who come to the door, serve tea and water, clean up when they are free, and help these tooth people pass some information.

"I see."

Guo Dan nodded.

"That's... Then I'll go and get busy first, and if my uncle doesn't understand anything, come and ask me again. Of course, Kou Yi can't watch him here, because Kou Liansha is inconvenient to go out, and he is generally responsible for going out to negotiate, that is, to be in charge of things outside the store.

After Kou Yi left, Guo Dan exhaled lightly and said, "Start working." ”

Because the hour was still early, no customers had come to the door, everyone was also preparing, and no one paid attention to him, so Guo Dan picked up a rag and started to work.

Suddenly, he felt like a man's back, and when he looked back, he saw that almost everyone was looking at him, with a little expectation in his eyes.

A smile rose at the corner of Guo Dan's mouth, and he didn't care about them anymore, and continued to wipe the porcelain, while wiping, and appreciating the ancient porcelain.

As soon as he turned his back, his eyes were focused again, however, the scene that everyone was expecting did not happen, that is, Guo Dan was in a hurry, breaking porcelain, or knocking over the table, or falling by himself, not only that, Guo Dan also wiped very carefully, slowly, methodically, very orderly, and even better than those servants before.

Illusion!

This Nima must be an illusion!

Almost everyone rubbed their eyes in unison.

As everyone knows, now this Guo Dan has also been a younger brother, he just came out of college, that is, to do some chores, run errands, and copy documents, but he has an advantage, that is, no matter what he has done since he was a child, he either doesn't do it, he will do it seriously, and he will never be perfunctory, his philosophy of life is that even if he serves tea and water, I must not be better than others.

In the past, Guo Dan ate soft rice, purely because he was forced to be helpless, and he didn't feel very comfortable, but now he really treats his son-in-law as a profession, he is studying every day, and he is working how to eat this bowl of soft rice, but he lacks experience and is not very smooth.

However, this does not conform to the impression he has in everyone's mind, and it also makes some people unhappy.

This is not scientific!

I saw a person whisper to his companion next door, "Let's make a little mess for him." ”

The person next door understood, coughed lightly, and said to Guo Dan: "Uncle, uncle." ”

Guo Dan glanced back, then walked over and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The man handed a few pieces of paper to Guo Dan and said, "This is the account that has just been sorted out, and the eldest lady will have a purpose later, can you help me get to the inner room?" ”

"Okay."

Guo Dan took the account book and walked to the inner room, but as soon as he took two steps, he suddenly turned around, looked at the man, and said word by word: "No thanks." ”

The man was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, looked embarrassed, and said, "There is work, there is work." ”

Guo Dan nodded, and then took those accounts and entered the inner room.

The man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said to himself, "It's different, it's really different." ”

The person who had encouraged him earlier asked, "What's different?" ”

The man said: "When Uncle Fang Cai came over, I felt a little scared inexplicably, just... It's like seeing a big lady. ”

I heard a cough next door, "Ahem, cough, cough!" ”

He turned his head to look and saw Kou Zhuan Sha walking in through the door.

Everyone immediately sat upright and shouted in unison: "Morning, eldest lady." ”

Kou Zhuansha came to a table and said, "Have you sorted out yesterday's accounts?" ”

"It's been sorted out, so I let my uncle take it in."

"Uncle?"

Kou Zhuan Sha was surprised.

The man was stunned and said, "Doesn't the eldest lady know?" Yesterday, the master had arranged for his uncle to come to the store to do some trivial things. ”

When Kou Liansha heard this, her willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she didn't say a word, and walked straight to the inner room.

She really didn't know, and Kou Shouxin didn't tell her because she was afraid that she would object.

Over there, Guo Dan came to the inner room, and his first feeling was that he was depressed, only to see that there were bookcases in front of the three inside, which were full of various books, materials, and archives, but they were very neat, without a trace of clutter, and in the middle was a very large desk, on which were placed the four treasures of the study, and there was a tea table for guests.

"Looks like my wife is a workaholic! Well, that's the right way to raise me. ”

Guo smiled lightly, put the account in his hand on the table, glanced at it, suddenly frowned, and stared again, "Huh? It seems to have been miscalculated. ”

Before the words fell, a curious voice was suddenly heard, "What did you say?" ”

Guo Dan was startled, and when he looked back, he saw Kou Liansha, who was wearing a long turquoise dress, standing at the door looking at him.
