Chapter 7 The First Pot of Gold

"Really, show it to me." Caiyu said happily.

"That, I didn't even paint it, so why don't I paint it now. Can Aunt Liu borrow some pen, ink, paper, and inkstone? Chunyu asked Liu Xiuniang.

"What to borrow or not, I'll get it for you, my kid bought Qi Qi'er for him every day, but he doesn't know how to learn." Liu Xiuniang said with a smile and walked into the back room.

"Come, let's go in and sit down, I'm sorry I made you stand for so long." Caiyu said embarrassedly, and then pulled Chunyu into the room of the Eight Immortals table and sat down, there was tea and snacks on it, Caiyu poured a cup of tea for Chunyu, and then noticed Chun Tao behind Chunyu.

She pinched a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it to Chun Tao, but Chun Tao did not take it. Although Chun Tao usually looks amazing, when she goes out, she shows her child's habits, and she obviously wants to take it and eat it directly, but she looks at her eldest sister Chunyu a little timidly.

"Thank you Aunt Yu yet." Chunyu said to her with a smile.

"Thank you, Aunt Yu." With the consent of the eldest sister, Chun Tao took the osmanthus cake and ate it this time. When the second piece was made, she didn't recognize it and took it herself. Caiyu smiled and didn't speak, Chunyu was afraid that she would choke, so she hurriedly handed her the tea to drink.

"The eldest young master of the Zhou family follows the master to do business in the capital all the year round and does not come back often, and I don't know his hobbies very well, but I heard from the third lady that he has a cold temperament, but he is a gentle brother. I see that every time he comes back, he wears mostly cyan, so he probably likes to be simple. Caiyu opened her mouth to mention the Zhou family

The eldest young master is here.

"That's ......," Chunyu said, wondering what pattern would suit him. Raising his eyes to look at the simple pattern on the incense stove on the side, there was a calculation.

After Liu Xiuniang brought the pen and ink, Chunyu sighed for a moment and picked up the pen to draw, fortunately, I also learned Chinese painting for a few days, and the brush can still draw.

"What kind of flower is this, how come I've never seen it? But how can I not see the leaves. Seeing the pattern that had been drawn on the paper, Caiyu said in surprise. Of course, she didn't recognize it, but the paper was painted with the legendary flower of the other side, two simple flowers wrapped upward, and the clustered petals stretched out like phoenix tail-like stamens, which was very novel and beautiful.

"This is what I occasionally see in the book, this is a legendary flower, called Manju Sawa, it is said that it is a flower that does not see the leaves, the leaves do not see the flowers, the flowers and leaves do not meet, and the life is wrong." Chunyu replied.

"I didn't expect this flower to have such a poignant story, but wouldn't it have a bad meaning......" Caiyu said.

"No, it represents endless love, and it can be said that my sister admires my brother. Moreover, for the eldest young master, you can use his favorite cyan to make a purse, and then use gold and silver to overlap to embroider this manzhu sawah, which must be simple and generous. "Spring rain is ashamed, these are just two flowers,

There's a poignant story coming from there.

"Okay, that's it, this embroidery is novel, I can't say that it will be spread in the future. In the spring rain, you may not be able to make money with embroidery samples, you can make a price, this embroidery sample wants to sell for more money. Caiyu naturally doesn't think that people will give such a precious embroidery sample for free.

"I can also figure out that Aunt Liu sold this embroidery, so let Aunt Liu say it. And I still have a few more, you and Aunt Liu see if you like it. Chunyu said, and drew a few more cartoon patterns, such as a cute kitten, a rabbit jumping in the grass, a Winnie the Pooh holding a honeypot, and a few simple magnolia flowers and hosta flowers.

"Gee, these embroidery patterns are definitely going to be welcome." Liu Xiuniang liked it at first glance.

"Aunt Liu, you can give as much as you can, and you have been taken care of for so many years." Chunyu said with a smile that she didn't expect to make much money, and she could get some of it.

"I also like anything else, Sister Xiu, don't fight for me, I bought these things directly on behalf of my young lady, except for Manzhu Sawa in your store, you can embroider as much as you want." After Caiyu finished speaking, she took off a purse from her body and stuffed it directly into Chunyu's hand, and said with a smile: "On the body."

There are so many, don't be too little, bother to give Aunt Yu a copy of these paintings for me to take away. ”

"Well, that's a bit much." Although Chunyu doesn't know how much money is in it, it is broken silver to the touch, and the weight will not be light, at least three or four taels.

"No more, no more, I'm afraid it's less." Caiyu is very satisfied with the appearance of Chunyu, which is very good and not a greedy for money.

"Then, thank you, Aunt Yu." Chunyu no longer shirked, and seriously drew those patterns again, and after drying them, folded them and handed them to Caiyu. Caiyu happily said goodbye to a few people and left in a hurry.

"That's your Aunt Yu's share, I embroidered your embroidery to sell it for money, and I should give you some too." After Caiyu left, Liu Xiuniang said.

"Aunt Liu said this, since Aunt Yu has already paid the money, how can I collect your money again. But it's not too early now, and our two sisters are not too young to come, and we have to hurry home. Trouble Aunt Liu to settle the money for this embroidery work, and take some more work for me to take back. ”

Chunyu had money in his hand, so he hurriedly left to buy some things.

"You kid...... Well, if you need help with anything in the future, just come to me. Liu Xiuniang said with a smile, took out the two hundred copper coins that had been prepared with ropes and the embroidery work that needed to be done from her purse, and handed them to Chunyu.

"Aunt Liu, I remember that my mother only got a hundred wen last time, why are there so many this time." Chunyu said.

"There's a lot of talk, and this time the family has a lot of money." Liu Xiuniang really served this girl, how can anyone think of a lot of money. She also understands that it is because this child has a good character and is unwilling to take advantage of others.

"Alright, let's go." Chunyu knew that she was afraid that she would give more because she didn't give money for the embroidery, so she had to accept it with a smile.

"It's better for your sister and son to stay and have a meal and come back." Liu Xiuniang said that she really likes this girl.

"No, my mother is still waiting." Chunyu said and went out with Chun Tao.

"Big, big sister, how much money do we have?" Chun Tao asked, she didn't expect her eldest sister to have this ability.

"I don't know, it should be quite a lot. But we can't watch it here, for fear of being seen and remembered. Hurry up and get some groceries and go home. Chunyu is also very excited, this is the first pot of gold she has come here. made money so easily, much more than her father and mother earned in a year.

When I think about it, it feels like it's in a dream.

In the end, Chunyu took Chun Tao to eat a bowl of shredded meat noodles, although Chunyu couldn't eat much when she looked at the oily shredded meat noodles, but Chun Tao ate it well, and she ate half a bowl that Chunyu didn't eat, and Chunyu was afraid that she would hold on.

Let's say that Chunyu took Chun Tao to buy some caramel and osmanthus cakes for his younger brothers and sisters, and went to the place where he bought meat to buy some meat to go home. As a result, she saw the pig thrown into the water on the ground next to the butcher stall, and she asked if the fat meat was 20 wen a catty, and the lean meat was 16 wen a catty. So each came a pound and let it

The pork seller put on four or five bones. When she asked about the pig in the water, she actually said to give her two articles and let her take them all, but the spring rain was very happy, this pig was cleaned up and it was a great delicacy.

However, washing with flour or vinegar and salt is indeed a bit luxurious, but there is another way to do it in the spring rain. Past

She rented a house in an old community outside the Fourth Ring Road, and the landlord and old lady were very good at cooking, because she was lonely to eat alone, and she often called Chunyu who came home from work to eat. After a long time, Chunyu has also learned a lot.
