Chapter 197: Start Your Own Business

Gui Er didn't understand anything about the things in the court, and he couldn't understand it, but he was now full of hope. It's been seven or eight days since he came to the capital, and after the eldest sisters gave him the money, he went to the workshop. In this way, with the mother-in-law invited by the eldest sister to help cook and wash, he finally freed up his time and brought everyone's money home.

Gui Er went back in the carriage from the capital to his own town. When he arrived in the town, he was still ten miles away from his home, Gui Er was a thrifty person, such a short distance, in normal times, Gui Er must have walked back by himself. But this time, Gui Er had money on him and felt a heavy responsibility, so he hired a carriage in the town to send him back.

When he got home, Gui Er first went to the village chief's house and said to the village chief: "Uncle Village, please ask your old man to invite those 'female' families who followed my eldest sister to the county lord's mansion to come to my house, and they all came back with money. ”

The village chief was taken aback and said, "It's only been a few days since I went, and I haven't finished my apprenticeship, so why did I send money back?" ”

Gui Er grinned and said, "Everyone is not much, a few hundred dollars, but they all asked me to bring it back." I brought it back. This is all the county lord's grace, saying that this time there is a batch of very urgent work, they are all good at some needlework, so not only the apprenticeship period of 200 big money per month, but also to the ordinary embroidery girl in the workshop, 400 big money per month. No, these sisters, sisters, and sisters-in-law mostly left a hundred big money for use, and the remaining five hundred big money were brought back. ”

The village chief's wife had the sharpest ears, and when she heard it, she hurriedly ran out and said: "Oh, this apprentice, in charge of food and housing, saves one person's chewing at home, and can you get two hundred big money?" Now working in the workshop, you can make 400 big money a month? ”

Gui Er smiled and said, "Yes." Auntie, I heard that this is just the monthly money of an ordinary embroiderer, if it is three months later. After the assessment of the government, the level is good, and the monthly money is even higher, I heard that there is a month of 600, and there is a month of 800. The highest is a tael of silver a month. ”

The village chief's wife gasped. He said, "Oh my God, that's so good, isn't it?" It's no wonder that the people in the town want their 'women' to work in the workshop. Old man, it's all your fault. I said a long time ago, I want our daughter' to follow to learn, but you don't let me, you see? ”

The village chief looked at Gui Er's face, and the village chief's wife complained about him like this, making him lose face, and suddenly put on a whole face and said, "Master speaks." Don't 'interject'. Hurry into the kitchen. ”

The village chief's wife looked at Gui Er, glared at the village chief, and reluctantly went to the kitchen.

The village chief waited for the village chief's wife to leave before he said to Gui Er: "Gui Er, is what you said true?" ”

Gui Er hurriedly said: "Can this still be fake?" ”

The village chief said: "I heard that the requirements of this workshop are very strict, and ordinary embroidery work level cannot enter the workshop at all. They are all from ordinary households. What if I don't do well in three months? ”

Gui Er smiled: "Uncle, you can rest assured." Do you always look at who they go to learn from? Ordinary embroiderers are 'groping' at home by themselves. Where is there to teach? Or it's my own mother who teaches it. But most of these people in my village were taught by my sister herself. It is the one who is going to stay in the capital temporarily, and it is also the embroidery girls who came out of the palace to teach. These embroidery girls are the best embroiderers in Dachu, and ordinary embroiderers in the princes and nobles can't compare. They still can't teach? ”

The village chief suddenly realized and said: "This is, I have heard that famous teachers produce high apprentices." ”

Gui Er smiled proudly and said, "Uncle, please let me know, I'm in a hurry to go home." ”

The village chief was busy sending Gui Er out of the 'door'. As soon as she entered the house, the village chief's wife couldn't wait to come out of the kitchen, and when she went up, she pulled the village chief's beard and said: "It's all you, an old immortal, why don't you want to let the boudoir 'girl' go out of the 'door', and also say that the boudoir 'girl' is already fourteen, if you go to Nanyang, you will be almost twenty years old, how can you say kiss?" You see, how much money do people make? What if our daughter's daughter could have a tael of silver a month, not even six hundred dollars? How much is the year? Where is the food and shelter, where will the money be 'spent'? How much can we save in the past few years, if our daughter' has ten taels of silver as a dowry, let alone twenty, it is thirty, and this family affair is also to be found. ”

The village chief thought about it, and what his wife said was very true. I couldn't help but be silent.

When the village chief's wife saw it, she knew that her old man's heart was moved, and she hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and continued: "If you have one or two taels of silver a month, you can have dozens of taels of silver in those years, and you can buy two acres of good land, and you can have two acres of land as a dowry, let alone marrying, even if you go to the 'door' and 'son-in-law' can find it." ”

The village chief was even more moved and said, "Otherwise, I'll talk to Gui Er and see if I can send our eldest and second girls over?" In this way, you talk to the children first, I will go to each house to inform you first, and then go to Gui Er's house later. ”

Here, the village chief's family made a decision. Gui Er only arrived home. As soon as they entered the house, Old Man Gui and Mrs. Gui were busy following their son: "Second child, why did you come back?" ”

Gui Er said: "My sisters let the wages for sending them back. ”

The old couple was taken aback: "I only came back a few days ago to send silver, why did I send money again?" ”

Gui Er told the reason again. As he was talking, Gui Da also came back, and asked busily, Gui Er said it again. After Gui Er finished speaking, he also took out a big bag from his side, which turned out to be hidden in Gui Er's robe. Gui Da started as soon as he started, and it was very heavy.

Gui Er said: "But I'm tired to death, this is not all our family's money, this is the money of those people in the village." Ours is here. ”

After speaking, he took out a smaller bag, but it was also very heavy, Gui Er said: "The five hundred big money belongs to the sister-in-law, the five hundred is the third girl's, the five hundred big money is the second sister's, and the one in my family is also five hundred big money." There are also the daughters of the big bull brother and sister's family, and the sister-in-law's sister-in-law's sister, all of which are 500 big money. ”

Gui Da looked at the five hundred big money with a smile on his face and said, "Then I'll put it away." That's good, it's only been a few days since I made money. If only we could learn a craft in the future, we could also make money, or wouldn't it be for the girls to compare? ”

Gui Er said: "No, I watched my sisters and sisters make money, but we big men have not made any progress, and I feel uncomfortable." The aunt who helped me serve Brother Da Niu told me that when we went to Nanyang, there would be an opportunity to learn. Because the county lord has recently recruited hundreds of craftsmen from all walks of life, and they all want to accept apprentices, why don't we also choose one to learn, so that we can also have monthly money in the future, wouldn't it be good? ”

Gui Da likes to say: "Is this news serious? But none of us have learned, I don't know if the master is willing to accept us? ”

Gui Er said: "Why don't you take it seriously, that aunt is the horseman in the county lord's mansion, the one who came to pick up the eldest sister in the first place, and he is very well-informed in the mansion." I thought about it, I used to help the carpenter's house in the town when I was not farming. Didn't I make the benches and tables at home? I'll go to the master carpenter and follow along, as long as I'm willing to work hard to learn, can I still learn well? ”

Gui's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, why haven't I thought about it, I don't know, is there a master craftsman, is this kind of work a craftsman?" ”

Gui Er said: "I've inquired a long time ago, there is a master craftsman, don't you know how to make things up, big brother?" The pot lids and baskets at home are all made by you, and when the farm is not working, the baskets you weave are still sold on the market? ”

Old man Gui said at this time: "But we are already ready to go to Nanyang to buy land and plant, you have all gone to work, who will plant the land we bought?" ”

Gui Er said: "I've thought about this, the land we bought still has Brother Niu, and this money is also the eldest sister's money, how can we ask for it for nothing?" The eldest sister is also about to get married, do we just see that they have no belongings? We still have to rely on our brothers to earn our own property. Besides, has the eldest sister taken care of this family for so many years? If it weren't for the eldest sister entering the palace, our brothers might have starved to death. The eldest sister entered the palace, and her father and mother got silver, not to mention how many of us were fed, and the eldest sister also gave the family a little silver every year, how many problems did our family solve? Now that we're going to start a family, do we still have to reach out to the eldest sister? ”

Old man Gui nodded and said: "If you can think like this, you can be regarded as worthy of your eldest sister, our family owes your eldest sister too much, and these five hundred taels of silver should be used as money for your eldest sister to buy a family business." However, your big brother Niu is injured, how can you do farm work? ”

Gui Er said with a smile: "The doctor that the county lord is looking for is really powerful, before, as soon as Brother Da Niu was injured, we found the best doctor in the town for treatment, but the doctor said that it was not curable." This doctor from the county lord's family is too powerful, it's only been a few days, and Brother Niu can already walk on the ground, so that he can basically take care of himself, and I dare to come back. In a few days, when the eldest sister gets married, Brother Da Niu will definitely be able to walk well, but the injury still has to be raised, and it will take more than three months to recover. We are in the city, and we can enjoy happiness, and the eldest sister is now ten taels of silver a month. So he hired an aunt to cook for us, wash the pulp, and buy 'meat' to eat every day, and buy bone stew. I also got naked. ”

Old man Gui and Mrs. Gui were happy when they heard it, they were most worried about Da Niu's injury, afraid that the big 'girl' would marry a disabled person in the future, this time don't worry, Da Niu's injury is better, this is really a godsend, Da Niu's character, the heart of the big girl, they are very satisfied. q――55565+dsuaahhh+24582702――>
