Chapter 31 Xiangxiu Embroidery Workshop

The last time Zhang Butcher brought the little brother of the Zhang family over, he just tried it. www.biquge.info At that time, the Xiangmanlou on the street launched new dishes, and the business of the store dropped a lot, and he was worried about the new dishes! Fortunately, he tried the dishes made by black fungus, and launched a series of dishes in the store on the same day, seizing the opportunity. Not only did they win back old customers, but they also attracted some new ones, and now their daily business has stabilized.

Shopkeeper Lin jumped from "Brother Zhang's family" to the title of "Jiahang" all of a sudden, and Zhang Jiahang didn't react at once. Hurriedly shook his head and defended: "Shopkeeper Lin, don't say that, this matter has nothing to do with me." It was you who believed in me and were willing to try black fungus to make the current situation happen. On the contrary, because of this business, the kid has an extra income in the family. ”

In the end, Shopkeeper Lin couldn't, so he had to collect all the 300 wen a catty. This kid has a big heart, so let him be! Let the man weigh the black fungus and pay the silver. Then he handed him two large paper packets.

"Brother Zhang, I took advantage of you, and there is nothing to do. This is a freshly prepared meal in the store, there are two roast chickens in it, and a bag of dim sum, remember to eat it while it is hot. I will not greet you. He wanted their brother and sister to come into the store, but his daughter-in-law didn't let her bump into her in the store today.

Zhang Jiahang knew what he meant, no longer refused, took the two paper bags, and said goodbye politely with the silver.

The shopkeeper Lin married his wife He and had a son and a daughter. His son Lin Yuan is 16 years old and his daughter Lin Shuang is 7 years old. He is the daughter of an official family, who is arrogant on the surface, but in fact hypocritical and snobbish. dislikes the dilapidated town of Wuli Town, and often lives in Los Angeles with his daughter. Usually, Shopkeeper Lin goes back to see it once or twice a month.

He had heard of Mrs. Lin's name when he was studying at Qingsong Academy before, but at that time, he didn't know that she was the shopkeeper of Piaoxiang Building. At that time, because of the reputation of the family, their brothers did not associate with outsiders in order to avoid trouble. The teaching of Qingsong Academy is relatively free, as long as they can ensure that they pass the later assessment every time, they do not need to go to school every day, so there are even fewer people who know them.

If he hadn't heard that Lin Yuan was the son of the shopkeeper Lin last time, he wouldn't have known about it. At that time, Lin Yuan was one level higher than him, and Lin Yuan's diligence and studious spirit were always nominated by the old master who taught as an example, and he, who often missed classes, was often the object of instruction. Lin Yuan was admitted to Xiucai at the age of twelve with the third grade, and then went to Beijing to study, and he didn't know the rest.

Zhang Jiahang avoided people and asked Yue'er to put away the extra basket, and then hugged her to Xiangxiu embroidery. As she walked, she whispered to her about the embroidery.

Xiangxiu embroidery workshop is taken from the name of the shopkeeper of the embroidery workshop. Speaking of Xiangxiu Niangzi, she is also a well-known figure in this town. The maiden family's surname is Qin, although he was raised by a widow, but he is known as a good name, and later married Zhu Zhipeng of Linjiang Town, known as Zhu Xiucai, the Zhu family seems to be rich, but in fact, the family is in the middle of the road, and there has been a famine inside, or Xiangxiu gave him a stitch and a thread.

Later, Zhu Xiucai was admitted to the juren, but he was taken by Ruan, the daughter of his boss. Whether it is the power of the Ruan family or the youth and beauty of the daughter of the Ruan family, Zhu Xiucai is greedy. In order to abandon Xiangxiu, she actually designed her to steal people, not abide by women's morals, and swept the floor and went out together with her biological son as a wild seed. Xiangxiu had to go back to her parents' house with her young son in her arms, and lived by embroidery with her widowed mother in Wuli Town. Later, after many years, Xiangxiu embroidery became famous.

In the past, when Li Sanniang was alive, the finished embroidered products would be sold in Xiangxiu embroidery. The embroidery embroidered by Li Sanniang is double-sided embroidery, even in Shangjing, it is also a good embroidery, and the price is quite high. The two also hit it off at first sight because of the embroidery, because they were a few years older than Xiangxiu, they could be regarded as close friends, and they even knew each other with the children at home.

"Yueyao, you guys are here, put down your things and sit in the house first, and wait for your aunt to come over." As soon as Xiangxiu saw Zhang Yueyao coming, she hurriedly greeted them, let them sit in the backyard, and went out to clean up.

Zhang Yue'er took a closer look at the embroidery, this shop is not big, less than sixty square meters, there are some embroidery products in the front yard, a yard in the backyard, two wing rooms, an ear room, a compartment, and a small vegetable field. Xu is still early, there is not much business in the store, most of them are women and peasant girls, and the sales are only simple small items such as handkerchiefs and handkerchiefs, and only Aunt Xiangxiu is in the store to watch the store.

Soon, I poured some tea and walked in. "I haven't seen you for a few days, and I don't know how you're doing. Last time, Jiahang brought embroidery over, and I was relieved to know that you were okay. ”

"Auntie, we're all fine, and today I'm selling the embroidery again. You don't have to be so polite. Zhang Yueyao replied with a smile.

Xiangxiu also sat down next to each other, looked carefully, and saw that their spirits were much better than last time, and they were even more relieved.

"This is Yue'er, this kid doesn't seem to know me anymore, and he used to be amiable to me." As he spoke, he got up and hugged her up and sat down again. Zhang Yue'er is in line with the spirit of listening more and watching more, talking less and doing less. Anyway, the original Yue'er didn't know many people, and she didn't like to talk, except for the people at home, most of them were silent.

Zhang Yueyao took the embroidery in the basket to her, and Xiangxiu took it and looked at it very satisfied.

"Yueyao, your craftsmanship is about to catch up with your mother, and these embroideries are still at the price of the last time. What the aunt said is true, the embroidery workshop will only sell you and a few others who embroider well, and the others will make a living. I'll give you the money when I'm out the door. Also, are you going to take the embroidery thread this time? ”

"Then thank you Aunt Xiangxiu, take more embroidery thread, but I will send it later next time." The price of the embroidery she brought is high, and now no matter how good her embroidery is, it still can't catch up with the mother's embroidery, but it's not good to brush off the kindness of Aunt Xiangxiu. I'm going to give her some black fungus when I leave.

"Be polite to your aunt, it doesn't matter later, just send it to your aunt. There is also a family voyage, and I will go back at my aunt's house at noon. Brother Mingde will come back today, and your Grandma Qin went to pick him up, and you haven't seen him for a long time. ”

Mingde is the son of Xiangxiu, two years older than Zhang Jiahang. Because of Zhu Xiucai's affairs back then, he changed his name to Mingde and followed his mother's surname, and he won Xiucai last year, and now he is studying at Songfeng Academy in Wuli Town. Songfeng Academy is the best academy in the town except for Qingsong Academy. Over the years, Xiangxiu has supported her widowed mother and children, and it is not easy to rely on the business of the embroidery workshop.

"No, auntie. We still have some medicinal herbs that we haven't sold, so we have to buy them, and we have made an appointment with an ox cart in the village. It's okay to see you next time you have a chance. ”

"You kid, but you have planned it a long time ago, don't be so polite in the future, don't do it next time." Xiangxiu knew that the child was afraid of her cost, and sighed helplessly.

"Oh, by the way, last time I heard in the town that your uncle and second uncle's family were splitting up, and they were going to sell Zhang Ji Restaurant, because the two families were still quarreling about this, it's good that you know about it."

The eldest uncle and the second uncle went to the town to open a Zhang Ji restaurant in the second year after their family broke off their family, and they heard that the business was passable, so they also bought a house in the town. Every year, he rents the land at home to the people in the village to rent and plant, and usually comes back to collect the rent. This was the first time Zhang Yue'er had heard about them in town.

"Well, I see, they've been with us for a long time. Auntie, don't inquire about their affairs in the future. ”

Xiangxiu also knew about their family, and listened to Zhang Jiahang's words. Then he told them about the events that had happened during this time, and he was happy to hear that they were selling black fungus to make money. She was very familiar with the black fungus in the town, and the few times Mingde went home, his grandmother bought it for him to stir-fry.
