Chapter 195: Ten taels of silver
"Sister, we are all very well-behaved, we have been lying in the bed, it is too cold outside, you can also come to us to lie down and rest for a while."
The women all got up and walked over, let Mu Hui sit in the warmest part of the house, and then said with a smile: "Thanks to Miss Mu Hui, the chilblains on our children's bodies are scarring, you must tell them not to let them scratch them with their hands...... It's also itchy so badly, the kids can't stand it. ”
Mu Hui turned to the children in the quilt and said with a smile: "Sister can tell you, the scar of the chilblain must fall off naturally so that it will not leave a scar, if anyone scratches it alive, it will leave a scar, and it will not be beautiful if there is a scar, and my sister still likes beautiful children." Do you understand? ”
The children nodded their heads, and one of them suddenly cried and said, "But sister, my scar has fallen off...... It's not pretty, my sister doesn't like it......"
After Mu Hui looked at the chilblain scar, the child accidentally scratched it off, and the red skin was very tender. She gently touched the child's head and said, "Don't cry, my sister knows that chilblains can be very itchy, so if you think you have raised somewhere, you can pinch a cross with your fingernails, like this?" Did you see it clearly? This way, the scar will not fall off, and the itch will be relieved......"
The children nodded obediently. They will listen to Mu Hui's words. Because they knew that it was this beautiful sister who saved them and gave them a warm house.
The woman who was cutting paper looked at Mu Hui and said, "You are a bodhisattva given to us by God." Come and sit here and make a fire. Sunset and Sunset came over from outside and said, "I have already given them food...... After speaking, Sunset looked at the children hiding in the quilt and immediately walked over and said: "Do you little ghosts say that you are good?" ”
The children replied, "We're very good!" Sunset nodded in satisfaction.
In the firelight, the women's fingers were thicker than the other, and two of them had their fingers cracked.
Mu Hui smiled and said, "Well, that's fine." And sisters-in-law, I know that you have good hearts and want to earn more money to make ends meet. But look at your hands, if you don't take care of them well, how will you take care of these children in the future? Who will sew the clothes of those brothers? You take this silver, and our grain can allow you to survive this winter in peace, and when spring comes, we will grow vegetables and grow food! Good no good? ”
The women laughed twice, and one of them said, "Mu Hui, thank you." But we are all busy and have not been idle, now while we can still move to make some window paper can also exchange some money, the New Year is not so I also want to give the children and the son's father some good food......"
Her face flushed. The other was also embarrassed to say: "We really don't want to ask you for money again, after all, these rice noodles are enough for us to survive the winter." ”
It's the New Year, who doesn't eat some dumplings? Who doesn't have some meat? But what they eat is white rice in addition to steamed buns. There is not even basic meat and vegetables. Mu Hui could imagine that a woman wanted her children and men to eat a bite of hot Jiaozi, or a plate of dishes, which was also considered the New Year.
But vegetables and meat are the most expensive things during the Chinese New Year. How embarrassed are they to talk to themselves? I can only grieve myself and keep working hard, hoping to earn some money back with my hands. Thinking of the hard days I had with Dandan before. Her eyes were a little red.
"I understand, can you give me these cutouts? The last time you gave me a paper cutout, I posted it, and several of my sisters liked it very much, and they asked me when they saw it, so I bought these paper cutouts for them! Feel relieved. They are all young ladies from rich families, and I will sell them for you for more money! Good no good? ”
The women looked at Mu Hui with bright eyes and said, "Is this true?" Is it true that someone is paying a premium for those cutouts? ”
Xiyue understood what Mu Hui meant, stepped forward and said, "That's not it, then why do you think we came to see you at this time?" Isn't it just for your paper-cutting? Your craftsmanship is so good. By the way, in order to make your paper-cutting better, my young lady also bought some chilblain ointment, you must apply it, and when your fingers are better and not itchy, cut better! ”
"Good, good!" Their simple eyes were full of determination, as if they had to work hard to cut the paper cut to buy a good price. Several of the women were even busier.
Mu Hui and Sunset helped clean up the window flowers that had been cut. The sun was setting in the west, and Mu Hui saw that the sun was about to go down and immediately said, "Okay, so much is enough." Don't cut it anymore. After I bought it, I told you that those patterns were better to buy them, and I would come back and sue you, and you would cut them again. What do you think? ”
The women nodded immediately. The three of them left the Taishi Mansion in a hurry.
On the way back, they looked at the vendors selling paper-cuts next to them, shook their heads helplessly and walked away. Mu Hui ordered the sunset and the setting moon to paste those paper cuts all over the Chu Courtyard and Yazhu. Mu Hui in the whole house has almost all the windows pasted with window grilles.
Almost all of her money went to the refugees. I really don't have a silver tael on me anymore. Mu Hui suddenly thought of that painting! Aren't the chrysanthemums painted by Nan Rongxuan very valuable? It's better to exchange it for some money.
After listening to the young lady's thoughts, the sunset and the setting moon immediately shook her head and said, "Miss, don't! This painting must be very valuable, but if you buy it, what do you say when the second master asks? This is a special drawing for you. ”
"Paintings are used for money, why can't you eat or drink, you can only appreciate them. Is it important to enjoy the painting or to eat well? I think that's what this painting is all about. ”
Yu Feiyang fell lightly from the roof and walked into the room with his head down. The sunset and the setting moon almost sat on the ground. Sunset said dissatisfiedly: "Yu Gongzi, why can't you walk and make a sound, it's scared us to death." ”
When Mu Hui saw him, she immediately came to her senses and said, "You are my timely rain, how about selling this painting to you." Bring the silver? ”
When more than a dozen silver tickets were placed in Mu Hui's hand, she froze. This silver ticket is a hundred taels of silver! It's all white silver! That's a thousand taels, not to mention. Even if the second prince made a move, it was only three hundred taels.
"I'll keep the painting first, and when I want it, I'll give it when I want. Use the silver first. With that, he bowed his head and left.
Mu Hui happily walked around the house with silver tickets! He gave it, and she took it. Mu Hui wondered if the spirit Gu was a creature that didn't need money? Therefore, money is also a waste on him, it is better to accumulate virtue for her. (To be continued.) )
