Chapter 19 Chinese Knots

It looks like the New Year is approaching, but because there is no money at home, nothing can be done, so you have to save some money for the New Year, otherwise it will be too shabby and not good-looking, "Daddy, there is still a lot of money at home?" Yang thought for a while: "Last time I bought cotton, I still have about 80 yuan left. ”

"Mother, I want to buy some red thread to make something to sell," Yan Yan thought that the red and festive things for the New Year would definitely be popular, so let's make Chinese knots, "Daddy, you go buy some red thread and red paper, the thread should be thicker, buy some first." ”

Although Yan Qingshan has doubts, in view of his daughter's cooking skills these days, he still chooses to believe Yan Yan, and he will know if he buys it back first, and then says that his daughter will still harm him? Yan Qingshan hurriedly went to the market to buy some red threads and red paper, and came back before dark.

After dinner, Yan Yan first made a Chinese knot, "Oh, this is really beautiful, weird and festive!" Yang took the Chinese knot and looked at it carefully, "It's not too difficult to do, what is this called?" Yan Yan, how can you do it? Yan Qingshan and Yan Shaojie were happy but also puzzled.

"I'm not good at needlework, so I figured out other things by myself, I can weave rope but I can't do needlework," Yan Yan lowered his head embarrassedly.

"What's this? My daughter is smarter than others, others won't know how she will, she still came up with it herself, "Yan Qingshan is a typical daughter, she has to praise her daughter to be satisfied, Yang gave him a blank look, but he was also full of joy.

"This is called the Joy Knot, you can call different names according to the size and style, and with others, let's do some to sell, see how it is, make more good sales, red paper can also cut some patterns to sell, and save some money for the New Year." Fortunately, Yan Yan played with these lines in the previous life, learned a lot of styles, and also taught paper-cutting handicraft classes, so he can make money now, and he didn't learn in vain.

So the family worked in full swing, but Yan Qingshan didn't know how to get any crops, so he could only wait for tomorrow to sell, everyone hurried and finally ran out of red threads, and the red paper was almost used, so they cleaned up and rested early, and Ming'er had to get up early.

Yan Yan and Yan Qingshan went to sell together, Yan Yan was afraid that this honest crop man would not peddle, and he wanted to see how the market went. Swinging it on the ground casually, Yan Yan sorted things into categories and began to shout, Yan Yan couldn't do this in his previous life - he loves face, but this life is different, the people here are simple and the family really has no money, so everyone doesn't feel anything if they do this.

"Little girl, what is this? How to sell? A woman picked up a medium Chinese knot and asked.

"Sister, this is the Marriage Festival, bless the marriage is happy, five cents a piece," Yan Yan said with a smile. The woman was very moved when she heard this, although it was a little more expensive, but she had never seen it, so she could invite a good intention, "Okay, I want one." "Thank you, you are the first guest, I will give you a spring flower," Yan Yan handed her a paper cut of a flower.

"This one is very beautiful, it's called Spring Flower?"

"You can stick it on the window, it's festive."

The people passing by came to take a look because they were curious, and after Yan Yan's explanation, they all paid for it, because it was beautiful and fresh, and it was sold out quickly, Yan Qingshan happily packed up his things and prepared to go home.

"Daddy, let's buy some more thread and paper," Yan Yan thought that he could sell it for a few more days, and he should be able to save some money, and Yan Qingshan happily agreed. So they bought their things and went home.
