The desolation of the old mansion is two thousand one hundred and thirty-one
There is also the atmosphere at home, and Old Man Xuan really doesn't like it very much, and the house is cold to death, so he will never be at home if he can come out.
He also plans to stay here tonight, and go to Xuanwenjiang for a few days in a few days, it is best to go to the capital before Miao'er, he has passed this winter like this, but he doesn't want to be in his own home.
The dinner here is very lively, the family is talking and laughing, and the atmosphere is very harmonious.
But at this time, the old mansion is not so happy, Xuan Wenbao and Feng have earned a total of fifteen yuan today, the two of them went out for a day, and the family is busy making silk flowers, this total of four people are busy, only fifteen wen a day, thirty days a month, only four hundred and fifty wen?
Their family also has a head and a face, so they can't just buy two cuts of meat for the Chinese New Year, right? Can't the children not make new clothes? Isn't that a clear way to tell others that their family is poor?
The things on this table are not delicious, it is not as good as a few years ago, there is no oil in the cabbage soup, and they still eat porridge at night, drink soup and eat porridge, these used to say that there was also an egg, or put some oil shuttle in the boiled vegetables or something, but now it has become like this, and they can't stand it.
Ma Shi looked at the dejected ones one by one, and then thought of Xuan Miao'er and Xuan Ling'er coming out today, she still hoped to encourage the children to work hard.
"Don't be discouraged, what can you see when these five and two people only go to the town for two days? Wait for them to go for a few days and figure out the way, don't ask for more, these two people can earn back a couple of silver a year ago so that our family can have a face-saving year, and when the three months are up, the fourth child can have a lot of money left, and our family will be able to live." ”
Xuan Wenbao has no confidence in this silk flower at all: "Mother, I wrote the letter on behalf of me for this silver twelve, and I bought two of these silk flowers, but people still pressed the price so that they didn't make money at all." ”
Ma sighed: "You are like this, tomorrow the third daughter-in-law and lotus leaf will also go to the town, you go to the handicraft house to see, see how other people's silk flowers are made, you study hard." ”
Zhang nodded without any opinion.
Lotus Ye is very happy, I don't have to work tomorrow and I can go out for a walk, this is how long it hasn't happened, if I can make an appointment with Zhang's younger brother tomorrow, isn't it?
Xuan Wenbao thought for a while and said: "Mother, can this thing be sold well, just the two of us will go to the town, I am afraid that you will not believe it, or let the third sister-in-law follow in the future." ”
If you want to talk about writing letters on your behalf, Xuan Wenbao and Feng may have secretly put some silver, but they know what it is like to be with the silk flowers, and now they have to rely on Xuan Wenbao if they can't prepare it this year.
So Xuan Wencheng hurriedly said: "No, no, we can trust you." ”
Ma also said: "They are all brothers, now is the most difficult time for our family, you must get through the difficulties together." ”
To tell the truth, they don't know this little bit of stuff at home, except for the shops in the town, there seems to be only those fields left at home, and there is really nothing else to fight for.
After Ma finished speaking, no one responded, so she could only continue to encourage and mobilize: "I know that you are in a bad mood now, and you are not in a good mood, but our family still has a house, a shop, and a world and people, what are you afraid of? ”
These words had no effect on Xuan Wencheng and Xuan Wenbao at all, and neither of them responded.
Ma Shi was in a hurry, and said to Zhang and Feng: "You are a daughter-in-law and an important person in the family, do you want to persuade yourself to work hard to be in charge?"
Zhang and Feng couldn't help but speak, so they both nodded and said they knew.
Ma's heart is actually insufficient, and now there is basically not much, and she doesn't say anything: "Eat, go to bed early after eating, and there will be work tomorrow." ”
This meal is also lifeless.
Lu Ziming won't come back tonight, so Xuan Ling'er will stay at her mother's house today, and stay in a room with Xuan Miao'er at night.
The two sisters sat on the bed, sitting cross-legged and talking to each other as they had done when they were children.
"Miao'er, you said that you are writing letters and making silk flowers over there, won't you really change your past?"
"How is it possible, you also saw the silk flowers they made today, do you say you can sell them? Besides, how much money can you make by writing letters? My fifth uncle can continue to work? Their shop is in charge of changing people every three months, and there are many things. "Xuan Miao'er doesn't believe that they can really respect and love each other to change their ways.
"Also, their expenses over there are really a lot, so many people, my grandfather wants to save face, firecracker meat for the New Year or something, it can't be too shabby, if they make money like this, there is no hope. ”
"I think my grandmother wants to follow the path of our family when they first made a fortune, but she thinks too simply, everything is done first to make money, they don't innovate, and the price of those things in our handicraft house is not high, they either make hard money or they can't make money. ”
"They thought simply, what did we do all day? You see how lazy they looked, my worries were really unnecessary. ”
"So sister, let's not worry about them, let's talk about beauty and skin care products, okay?"
"Okay, you give me everything, wait for the grandparents to come back with Brother Ziming in a few days, the child will be watched, I will run a few more times a year ago, and strive to open the shop as soon as possible." ”
"Okay, then during this time, I will write out and draw everything in my head, and then the eldest sister will go to the capital, explain this matter clearly to Sister Hua, and choose a big shop together, make a shop in the front, make it in the back, and manage it. Xuan Miao'er thought about how she could arrange everyone's time.
Xuan Ling'er nodded: "Well, in the past few days, I have been studying the masks you said at home, and as for those rouge and gouache things, I still have to find a professional person." ”
Xuan Miaoer doesn't need to be like those modern skin care products, she actually wants more products, more innovation, more branding, and selling brands.
"Okay, anyway, I'm just the initial idea, when the time comes, the imperfect eldest sister will help me think about it, my sister-in-law is pregnant again, I don't dare to disturb her, or my mother will talk about me. Xuan Miaoer was happy to say that Li Mengxian was pregnant again, and she only prospered when she had more family.
"But it's not, if it weren't for Mengxian being pregnant again, how good it would be for the three of us to do it together, I don't dare to tell her now, otherwise she will be enthusiastic, and if she has to follow us, my mother will really be angry, and the first three months of the fetus is unstable, we can't let her know first." Xuan Linger said that the child was also happy.
