Chapter 124: The Rich Man
"It's okay, it's just that my brother is going to leave the day after tomorrow, and I can't bear it. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xu Xiangwan was afraid of mentioning Xu Zhibang in front of the Zhang family, so he hurriedly explained.
After hearing this, Zhang also sighed: "Alas, Gorou will be eleven years old after the New Year, and if you want to say that you are twelve years old, you are all older in a blink of an eye." I can't help it, I can't do anything as a mother, and I can't hold you back anymore. ”
As he spoke, Zhang's eyes turned red, and when Gorou went to the exam before, although Zhang was reluctant, he didn't feel so sad, because he knew that Gorou would definitely have to go home after the exam.
But this time it's different, Gorou has been gone for a few months, and he can't usually see each other, although he knows that this is a good thing, but he still can't help but feel uncomfortable.
Xu Xiangwan also has this feeling, after all, since childhood, their brother and sister have never been separated, and Gorou went to Fucheng for the exam two days ago It was already the longest time to be separated, and this time it was a few months to be separated, and it was not easy to change anyone.
"Mother, why don't we move to Fucheng too?" Xu Xiangwan's eyes suddenly widened, and she looked at Zhang with a burning gaze.
This proposal stunned both Zhang and Gorou, but both lowered their heads, Gorou was thinking about the feasibility, but Zhang didn't know what he was thinking.
"If we really get to Fucheng, what will we live on?" Zhang frowned, his attitude uncertain.
Xu Xiangwan smiled: "Mother, do you guess why Shopkeeper Shen came to our house just now?" ”
"Didn't you come here to bring something to our family? Qianyu's child values love and righteousness, and always thinks about our family in his heart. When the Zhang family mentioned Shen Qianyu, her eyes softened, she really liked that child, if she didn't feel that the gap between her family and the Shen family was too big, she would have wanted to find him as a son-in-law.
Xu Xiangwan shook his head: "Mother, you only guessed half right." Shopkeeper Shen did send us something, but that's not the point. The point is that he brought good news to our family and sent a hundred taels of silver. ”
"Silver? You confiscate it, right? Zhang frowned disapprovingly, she usually felt that it was inappropriate to accept Shen Qianyu's things, so she often made some clothes, shoes and socks for Shen Qianyu, just to repay the favor, and now she is sending silver, which is too much.
Although their family is not wealthy, they do not need others to help them. When Zhang was the poorest, he never thought of accepting help from others, let alone living a good life now?
"Naturally, I took it." Xu Xiangwan raised his eyebrows with a smile and said deliberately.
Zhang was about to reproach Xu Xiangwan, but when he raised his eyes, he saw that her dark eyes were flashing with a playful light, and he reached out and knocked on her head: "You kid, you're teasing your mother again." ”
Also, can you still not understand what your own children are like? This child is even stronger than her, how can he accept charity from others? Zhang's heart secretly said.
Xu Xiangwan touched his head and smiled: "Mother, haven't I been tinkering with medicinal herbs before?" I gave you a jar of frostbite cream that I made myself years ago, do you remember? ”
Zhang nodded, the frostbite cream Xu Xiangwan gave them before worked very well, better than the one bought in the pharmacy, and she still has it in her house.
Seeing Zhang's nod, Xu Xiangwan continued: "Later, I added some materials to make hand ointment, which has a better medicinal effect than frostbite ointment, and can also whiten, moisturize, and remove wrinkles. ”
"It works so well?" Zhang looked at Xu Xiangwan in surprise.
Xu Xiangwan nodded and continued: "Didn't Brother Qianyu send a lot of precious medicinal materials after you were sick last time?" To thank him, I was going to give him the recipe, but he didn't ask for it, so I gave him three boxes of hand balm. After he took it back, one of the boxes was given to the old lady of the Shen family, and the other two boxes were given to the shopkeeper Shen. As a result, Shopkeeper Shen sold the remaining two boxes of hand balm for two hundred taels of silver. At that time, Brother Qianyu made an agreement with me when he left, if this hand balm was easy to sell, we would split it fifty-fifty. So Shopkeeper Shen sent me a hundred taels of silver today. ”
After listening to Xu Xiangwan's words, Zhang's felt that his daughter was really amazing, how old was she, and the ointment she made could be sold for a box of one hundred taels of silver!
What kind of baby bump did she have? Zhang couldn't help pinching Xu Xiangwan Yuxue's lovely cheek, not knowing what to say.
Moreover, the shopkeeper Shen also said that many people are currently looking for him to book hand balm. If nothing else, I'm afraid we can earn at least one or two hundred taels a month. Xu Xiangwan was worried that he wouldn't be able to sell thirty boxes a month, so he just said a number conservatively.
After Zhang's listened, his eyes were straight, one or two hundred taels a month, wouldn't it be a thousand taels a year? I heard that the rich man Meng in the next village only earns a few hundred taels a year, and their family is about to become a rich man?
"Evening, you're not talking in your sleep, are you?" Zhang said calmly, this news was so exciting that she couldn't digest it for a while.
is worthy of mother and son, even the reaction is exactly the same.
Xu Xiangwan looked at Zhang's appearance, and laughed with a "poof": "Mother, why don't you pinch me and see if I hurt?" ”
"I'd better pinch myself." Saying that, Zhang really spared no effort to pinch his thigh, "ouch" and said, "It's really a little painful." Are we really not dreaming? ”
"Not really. So mother, are you relieved? Even if we go to Fucheng, life will not be a problem. Xu Xiangwan began to persuade.
Gorou also said: "And there are many schools in Fucheng, which are not comparable to the private schools in our village." Xiao Jiu is a good seedling for studying, and his talent is excellent, so he can't just waste it. ”
"Yes, Xiao Jiu is very good at reading, he is simply unforgettable. If you cultivate this well, you may be able to win the top prize in the future! Xu Xiangwan glanced at Gorou and began to flicker.
Gorou also nodded cooperatively: "The academy is closed every six days, and if I move to Fucheng, I can also go home and reunite with you." ”
In fact, hearing this, Zhang's was already a little moved.
"Aren't you and your sister still doing needlework? There are only a lot more embroidery villages in Fucheng than in Ganquan County, and you don't have to worry about finding a job to do. Xu Xiangwan tried his best to persuade him.
"But what about our land?" Zhang asked uneasily.
"It's not like you can move this house, you have to be prepared. I plan to buy all the surrounding plots, build a small village, and then invite a few more people to farm, so that we will not delay farming, nor delay our move to Fucheng. What do you think? Xu Xiangwan asked.
Obviously, Xu Xiangwan had already thought about these things.
After listening to Xu Xiangwan's plan, Zhang was still a little uneasy: "Give it to someone else to plant, can you plant it?" (To be continued.) )
