Volume 1 Chapter 016 Blacksmith's Shop

may be because the economic conditions of the family in the previous life have always been good, and Mo Xiaohe does not like to take advantage of others.

Moreover, in this era, everyone sweeps the snow in front of their own door, and someone treats you well for no reason, just because of the so-called eye edge, she doesn't believe it.

In the end, the two parties each took a step back, and Aunt Wang collected fifty copper plates and sold Mo Xiaohe a white muslin soaked in rain.

As the eldest aunt said, it is good to make small clothes, dirty pants, or menstrual belts.

Niang Li is pampered to her predecessor, and her belly pockets are made of silk, which is relatively smooth and will not grind her delicate skin, but she wears it in summer and does not absorb sweat, and she always feels that she is not as comfortable as muslin.

Mo Xiaohe had silver money on her, she came to live at her grandmother's house, and her mother was afraid of losing her mouth, so she gave her a pocket money of 100 yuan.

"You girl, you don't want rouge gouache, and my aunt will pay you for the cloth."

Without waiting for Mo Xiaohe to refuse, the Wen family could not say that they would pay for it, and the three of them walked out of the gate of the cloth village.

Li Xiu was overjoyed to get a money-making job, she didn't have to bother her brains, she didn't need to make fabrics, and she could earn enough five hundred wen without a little cost, which was half a tael of silver!

If she didn't have her cousin's embroidery, her handkerchief would only be sold for five cents.

"Xiaohe, when I finish embroidering, half of the silver will be divided into you."

It stands to reason that Li Xiu has set up a handiwork, and she wants to give all the money she earns to her cousin.

However, she will also be married soon, and the family must take care of the eldest brother first, and the bottom of her dowry has not yet been settled, so she is cheeky and accounts for half of it.

"Cousin, what do you do with the money you earn?"

Mo Xiaohe was surprised, her cousin was too real, right?

Accepting the kindness of the eldest aunt Wen, Mo Xiaohe was calculating in her heart, if she had silver in the future, she would return it a thousand times over, and it would not be in vain that the eldest aunt was so good to her.

Between relatives, it is appropriate to exchange courtesies, and you can't take a qiē for granted, which is chilling.

The predecessor did very poorly, thanks to the fact that Wen has always been indifferent and treats her well.

Coming out of Buzhuang, there were few pedestrians on the street, and it was noon.

The sun hung high in the sky, the sun was dazzling, and the heat could set people's skin on fire.

Mo Xiaohe blocked her forehead with a furoshiki, she was not familiar with the town, she followed behind her cousin, and silently remembered the route in her heart.

Just along the way, there are a total of three calligraphy and painting shops, one of which has a large façade and luxurious decoration, and the people who come in and out of the door are readers, which looks very high-grade.

After Mo Xiaohe's research, he decided to start from his old job.

The people of Dawu love beauty so much, and it is also an income to paint people on the side of the road.

The most pity is that she is a woman, and her appearance is outstanding, and her father and mother cannot let her show her head and go out to fend for herself.

She couldn't move an inch without money, and she had so many things she wanted to buy.

The blacksmith is a low-slung shop with iron hammers, knives, and so on at the door.

At the door, a small red flag was hung.

Wen's car was familiar with the road, and he entered the back door from the alley next to him, and happened to see his son Li He in the courtyard.

Li He was washing his clothes by the well, his head was full of sweat, and he almost fainted, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Li He hurriedly sat up from the small bench, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and smiled so much that he showed a mouthful of small white teeth.

My cousin is too thin, and although he is dark, his complexion is obviously not normal.

"What are you doing?"

Wen frowned and looked at the clothes in the big wooden basin, and his heart was half cold.

Those clothes, both men and women's styles, and the materials are okay, but they are obviously not Li He's.

Wen's heart was clear, his eyes were spewing fire, and he held his breath in his heart.

Her son came to the town to learn a trade, so that he would not be able to farm in the future, and he would not starve to death if he had a bite to eat.

But no matter how poor her family is, she doesn't want her son to come to the town to be a servant!

It is only natural that the apprentice should serve the master, and Wen did not feel that it was inappropriate.

However, this service is several years.

It's just the heaviest work on weekdays, and it's okay for men to suffer hardships, and it's hard to be squeamish.

However, she couldn't stand it, Li He still had to wash the woman's clothes!

What is this called!

It must be that fierce woman, squeezing her own children!

How can this be reasonable, let the son wash the clothes of a big lady, it is good to say that it is not good, spread it, that fierce woman does not want to be famous, and her son still wants face!

Wen's face changed from pale to red, and finally from red to black, and in an instant, it changed several times.

No, she had to say it!

"Mother......

Li He rubbed his hands, scratched his head embarrassedly, and looked at his cousin Mo Xiaohe not far away, with a begging look flashing in his eyes.

My cousin is still there, and I hope this matter will settle down.

As a man, he didn't want to do such a shameless thing.

However, the master intends to return to his homeland, and he will be the one who will cook the blacksmith shop in the future.

He has learned more recently than he has in the past few years.

The master is a stubborn old man, who guards against people on weekdays, Li He wants to steal the master, but he can't find an opportunity.

No pain, no gain.

The family is not rich, the burden is heavy, the family's field is only two or three acres, he wants to go back to farming, and there is no land to plant.

has endured it for so many years, and seeing that he has survived, he can't let himself fall short at this juncture.

Wen took a deep breath and tried his best to calm himself.

Li Xiu didn't say a word, squatted down to rub his clothes, and didn't say a word silently.

The family was very embarrassed, Mo Xiaohe observed his words and stood up to ease the atmosphere.

"Auntie, my cousin must have his own reasons for doing this."

Receiving Li He's gaze for help, Mo Xiaohe stiffened her head, she racked her brains and comforted, "If this matter goes out, it is not good for my cousin, but it has become a laughing stock." ”

The young man washes the old woman, which is easy to make people have bad associations.

Even if the Wen family is justified and stands up and quarrels, it will not be good, on the contrary, let Li He offend his master.

Of course, patience does not solve all problems.

"Mother, my master will return to his hometown next month, and he will give it to me."

Li He never had time to tell Sù Wen about this good news.

Originally, his master wanted to transfer the blacksmith shop to Li He at a relatively low price, but the Li family had no money.

Li He didn't have a salary at the beginning, and since last year, he has 200 wen a month, but he is always deducted from the fault, and there is nothing left if he can get it.

Therefore, his master's intention is to cooperate with him, and in the future, he will hand over a part of the silver money every month.

Mo Xiaohe thought about it and thought it was not worth it, wouldn't this be equivalent to being the shopkeeper of the blacksmith shop?

As soon as the master leaves, he will lose a lot of customers, and it is not cost-effective to do so.

Although the shop is small, it has been open for decades, and the people around it are used to this location.

The best way is to scrape together enough money, buy a shop, and run your own business.
