125. A good day
Don't look at the confidence that Carambola showed when she went to find Qing Cang, she was very happy when Qing Cang also agreed, but whether Qing Cang would really send someone over, Carambola was not sure in her heart.
When she came to the entrance of the village the next day, she saw that Qing Cang actually sent three carriages, not only that, but Qing Cang and Mo Qiu came, each leading a horse, waiting at the entrance of the village.
"That's what you say!" Aunt Lu also followed to the entrance of the village, and felt a little nervous when she saw such a big formation. "Young Master Qing, it's really troublesome for you, it's just that you can send more cars and run again."
"No trouble." Qing Cang smiled gently. Carambola instantly remembered that she always felt that her speechless smile was similar to someone before, and it turned out to be Qingcang. "It's just that I heard from Peaches that we need to buy two horses in the village, and one will follow to see if there is anything to help."
"Thank you very much." Aunt Lu said, and introduced Qing Cang to several men in the village, and told everyone that for such a long time, thanks to this Qing Gongzi every time he sent someone to send a car, to send them to the town.
Several men also said kind words, which embarrassed Qing Cang. He didn't do anything in the past! Now he is thanked, but it seems that he was really rescued, but he didn't come to repay others.
Qing Cang's heart became more and more strange, shouldn't this "rescued" plot just be faked and turned true?
Star fruit's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, this Qingcang is too face-saving!
I also remembered that she would have to go to Shangbaolou to hand in the drawings and get the silver in a few days, this batch of silver, in the village, except for Lu Dahei, even my grandmother didn't know, she wanted to keep it, waiting for the future to open a teahouse.
So the star fruit ran over again. whispered a few words to Qing Cang, and such an instruction was nothing more than asking Qing Cang to pick them up under the banner that his mother wanted to see her and Lu Dahei.
Qing Cang agreed without even thinking about it.
It seems that this Qingcang can also be regarded as her nobleman!
But the defense in her heart will not be lost! Although for the sake of silver's face, I have to deal with Qingcang. But she knew that this pie in the sky could not happen, even if it happened occasionally, it might not hit her head, Qing Cang agreed to her this and that so happily, would it have no purpose at all?
What's more, what is the relationship between him and Ling Hongfei, she doesn't know yet!
She didn't want a second "kite incident" that made her unconsciously a habit, so that after learning the truth, she couldn't tell whether she was disappointed or sad.
Aunt Lu and Aunt Liu didn't follow them to the town, and the matter was handed over to the men who were eager to try. They come back with peace of mind, embroidery that should be embroidered, and cloth stickers who should be made cloth stickers.
Carambola was still concentrating on drawing her base map, and when she found time, she thought of some pins, step rocks, and hairpin styles, and drew a few. A drawing is five hundred taels of silver! She has the feeling of winning the jackpot by buying a lottery ticket!
The men in the village did not come back late in the afternoon, and there was a carriage that the villagers had rushed back. It was Uncle Lu who was driving the car.
This is also a big deal in the village, and many people gather at the entrance of the village to see it. Those who participated in the carriage were very excited. Qing Cang looked at the excitement with a smile on the side for a while, and said goodbye to Uncle Lu and Uncle Liu.
"This young man is really enthusiastic, his subordinates can also know the teeth of horses, and on the way back, the subordinates keep talking. These two horses are really cheap to buy. Uncle Lu couldn't help but say to Aunt Lu, his excitement was beyond words.
Carambola didn't go to the entrance of the village to see the horses, but in the evening, she still asked her grandmother to go with her to Aunt Lu and ask about the silver used to buy the horses. How should it be spread.
"Grandma Pei, you don't have to worry about this." Aunt Lu heard what her grandmother meant, and hurriedly said. "Our dozen or so families have already agreed to share the matter, and everyone takes turns to feed the horses, peaches bring so many benefits to our village, so that everyone can buy as many horses as they make."
"That's not the case, her aunt, this horse has no one in our family to help feed it, if we don't have two more silver, we will feel embarrassed to use it, after all, this is not a matter of one or two days." Grandma insisted on refusing.
"Yes, auntie, I think the same thing as my grandmother." Carambola also said. "Auntie, don't be polite, the things on this money are clearly divided, and you can get along well in the future."
The three of them gave in a few words, and Aunt Lu couldn't say star fruit after all, so she had to call Uncle Lu to come and tell Uncle Lu that she would pay less for each family and accept the star fruit.
The next day, the men made adobe in a hurry, went up the mountain to find wood for the craft, and built the horse ring day by day.
Life is getting smoother and more organized.
It's just that the handkerchiefs and pillows in the embroidery work don't have much money, except for those who don't like to make paste, make their hands sticky, most people are busy making cloth stickers, or embroidering clothes, and there are only a few people left to embroider the handkerchief pillow.
Although Aunt Liu was not in a hurry about this, saying that there was a lot of stock in the store, but the star fruit thought that it could not be delayed for too long, and in addition to drawing the base map, she also embroidered a few by herself. This is not for money, just cultivate your mind and temperament, entertain yourself, and save her from being idle, and she will be in a daze at the empty food box when she is idle.
At the beginning, the star fruit still cherished the food box, wiped it clean every day, opened it to see, and was sad for a while at the empty box, but after a long time, the star fruit didn't care so much, and occasionally threw some bits and pieces in it, and used it as a storage box.
When she saw Lu Dahei coming to look for Pei Yifan to go out to play in the morning, and no longer wondered whether the kite would come back, it was close to the end of the year, during which Qingcang sent the "Brother Zhang" who had paid attention to the Yan'er sisters to pick her up and go to Shangbaolou once, took out all the previous silver tickets, and handed over a few drawings to the shopkeeper, and made a lot of money.
Carambola put all the silver tickets in the food box, there were still some scraps of paper and cloth on it, and grandma and Pei Yifan didn't care, but they just said that the thing was what she used to pack small objects.
Occasionally, star fruit will also take out the small box that Qingcang sent to her to paint, guessing what is inside, originally she has been thinking that there is a chance to zaijian to ask him about Qingcang, but when she went to send the base map, although Qingcang arranged everything, people are no longer in the town, I heard that I went to look elsewhere.
The Chinese New Year is always very busy these days, and there are many people in the village who follow the carriage to the town to buy New Year's goods.
Those who didn't participate in the purchase of horses, most of them also gave a few car and horse fees, Uncle Lu Bo Liu and others didn't want to wait, but people had to give, so they accepted it, and handed it over to Mr. Mo and a few other old men to keep it, keeping it for raising horses and repairing cars, and the second girl Liu Cheng was in charge of bookkeeping, and there was nothing wrong.
Carambola and Aunt Liu, most of them bought the New Year's goods by the way when they sent cloth stickers and embroidery, but when they were making new clothes for their families, they went separately.
Carambola also made two sets of clothes for everyone in the family, and grandma said that one was good, and there were originally two sets that were still new, and they were not worn ruthlessly, but Carambola insisted on making at least two pieces, so she listened to her.
Because it's going to be the New Year, the clothes that should be made have been done, and the embroidery work is slowly decreasing, but the cloth stickers are a bit in short supply, because during this time, the bottom map of the star fruit painting is mostly a festive style related to the Spring Festival.
As the star fruit thought, there is still no second person in the town who makes cloth stickers, those literati and ink writers disdain to do this, and there is a lack of people in the village who can paint, and the ladies in the boudoir occasionally make a half-pastime, but they are only kept for themselves or given to the sisters in the boudoir.
Others are just okay, but this road Aunt and Aunt Liu are a little strange, that Xia Dongyun goes to the carambola's house almost every day, and there is nothing to follow the carambola around, the practice of this cloth sticker is also familiar, and the price of this cloth sticker has been high, if the Wang family has not moved this idea, it seems unlikely.
In fact, they are really not too careful, and they have not wronged Wang, then Wang did have this thought, but unfortunately Xia Dongyun did not cooperate with her idea at all, and she got along very well with her on weekdays, and it was also a caring, but as soon as Wang asked her about the cloth sticker, she pretended not to hear, or directly told Wang, it was best not to earn this idea.
Wang's heart is so angry, he has a good girl in his family, and he doesn't know how to help outsiders like a ghost. But the Wang family has always been accustomed to children, especially his daughter Xia Dongyun, who is angry and angry, but he is reluctant to say a few more words, so he can only think about it secretly.
To say that although this Wang family is powerful, and he is also a person who does not suffer losses, he is not like the Liu Er family, he only knows what to do in everything, and he says everything about meat and vegetarianism, this Wang family still pays attention to her image in front of people.
The people in the village didn't have a good relationship with her, and a few of them used to talk to her, just because she had money, but now everyone has a few dollars in their hands, and they don't take her seriously anymore, if she goes against the people in the village on her own, I'm afraid she will be completely isolated. So this cloth sticker, even if she has an idea, she will not go out in person and tell the truth.
The New Year is over in a blink of an eye, although it is a little busy before the Spring Festival, but during the New Year, the people in the village are really leisurely and happy. And this year is different from previous years, everyone has some money in their hands, not so embarrassed, and there is more joy.
The only disharmony is that the price of the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar that Lao Xia's family pulled up to sell has risen again, but the other things of the people in the village are bought in the town, and they have saved a lot, plus they have plenty of money in their hands, and they don't care about him, so each family buys more.
The days in this village have a thriving and peaceful taste. (To be continued......)
