Chapter 53 Order the clay pot
Master Xin finally came back to his senses, he looked at Xin Zixing with complicated eyes, and said seriously.
"The child in Ji's womb is your own brother."
"Are you born to fight with me for the property?" Xin Zixing scoffed.
Master Xin choked.
He remembered that a few days ago, Ji Xiuhong was holding his stomach and grinding hard in the house.
It's not that he doesn't know......
At that time, he thought that this son was abolished, and he really wanted to leave the family property to the younger one.
"By the way, Dad, the child hasn't been introduced yet, this is the child's cousin, dear."
Xin Zixing suddenly introduced Bi Wu.
Master Xin was stunned.
He actually has an in-law relationship with the Bi family?
"My mother said that my father was so strong and loved face, even if she used her dowry to help her, my father felt embarrassed, how could I tell my father that my mother still has relatives who are officials?"
Xin Zixing saw that his father was devastated after hearing this, and he was both happy and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.
At the beginning, his father was just a guy who ran the hall, and he became the richest man in Fentong by relying on his mother.
If his mother knew what happened to him, I'm afraid she wouldn't be blind, right?
Xin Zixing raised his eyes that had become calm again, and looked at Master Xin lightly.
"Take care, Dad, if it's okay, the child will go first."
After that, he raised his voice to Ji Wan: "Miss Ji, I'll send you back." ”
Ji Wan almost didn't laugh out loud.
Xin Zixing's trick of drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle is ruthless enough!
He made it clear today that he would not let Ji Xiuhong's children fight for the family property, and move out of him, and the prefect still exists in the background.
Who said that Xin Zixing is the warmest? No attack?
It's obviously very dark!
Ji Wan saw Ji Xiuhong, this time she didn't have to pretend, she could cry so much.
She curled her lips and smiled.
If Ji Xiuhong keeps to herself, just seeking to be fed and clothed, she may be able to be a rich idler for the rest of her life.
But what if she is unwilling?
I'm afraid that without waiting for Xin Zixing to make a move, Master Xin will be able to clean her up in person.
It's just that with Ji Xiuhong's character, she is really a person who keeps to herself, so she won't find a way to climb into bed.
Let alone......
Ji Wan looked at Ji Xiuhong's belly, her eyes flashed.
When she touched Ji Xiuhong's pulse, if she didn't make a mistake......
The fetus in Ji Xiuhong's belly is a baby girl!
Ji Wan was in a good mood and paid the cow's silver, and walked out of the cattle and horse market with Xie Xianhua and Gu Yiping.
During the whole process, the guards of the Xin Mansion did not dare to move.
After Ji Wan and the others left, Master Xin looked at him with mixed feelings, and was showing him a pitiful Ji Xiuhong.
He twisted his eyebrows and said to the entourage behind him, "Take care of Aunt Ji." ”
With that, he turned around and strode away.
The guards of the Xin Mansion: Aunt Ji? Not Mrs. Ji anymore?
The eyes of the crowd were delicate.
Ji Xiuhong's face turned pale, looking at the direction Ji Xiu left, full of hatred.
Her hideous facial features shocked Sai Fengxian on the side.
Sai Fengxian couldn't help but tremble in her heart, carefully touched Ji Xiuhong's hand, and shouted softly: "Xiuhong? ”
"Smack-"
Ji Xiuhong slapped Sai Fengxian's hand hard, and asked through gritted teeth.
"It's all your fault! Why did you bring such a plague star back then? ”
"But bring her back, and we'll have a sum of money." Sai Fengxian felt aggrieved.
Ji Xiuhong was even more annoyed: "Then after so many years, why don't you kill her?" Put sluts and disgusting people? ”
Sai Fengxian's pupils shrank.
She never thought of killing, so she was out of sight and out of mind, deceived the Xie family, and let Ji Wan go to the Xie family as a child daughter-in-law.
……
At the entrance of Qinglu Village, a horse-drawn cart, an ox cart, and a skinny cow with a big belly came in.
Under the big elm tree, the children who were playing were curious to surround them.
Ji Wan was worried that the children would collide with the cows and horses, so she hurriedly got out of the car.
"Auntie!"
The tiger's eyes lit up, and from the pile of children, he pulled Xiaohua out and ran to Ji Wan excitedly.
Ji Wan smiled and touched the heads of the two children, took out a packet of caramel bought in the county, and handed it to the tiger head.
"Take it and share it with the guys."
Suddenly, Ji Wan thought, it seems that she hasn't seen Xie Dazhuang for a long time?
She asked Xie Xianhua, who had just gotten out of the carriage: "Have you seen Da Zhuang in the past two days?" ”
Xie Xianhua twisted his eyebrows slightly, and shook his head.
On weekdays, Xie Dazhuang always takes tiger heads and small flowers to find wild fruits that can satisfy his stomach near his home, or catch insects for the chickens at home to eat.
Now he has left his two younger siblings, leaving early and returning late, and he doesn't see anyone, which is really abnormal!
Ji Wan and Xie Xianhua glanced at each other, said goodbye to the Bijia coachman who sent them back, and then stopped Hutou and Xiaohua.
"Where's your big brother?"
When Hutou and Xiaohua heard Ji Wan ask about Da Zhuang, they immediately pouted dissatisfiedly.
"Big Brother Villain, don't take us when you go out to play!" Tiger head sues.
"Don't take us!" Xiaohua learns to speak, forks her waist and stomps her feet.
Ji Wan patted them funny: "Go ahead, share the sugar with everyone." ”
When they heard that the tiger head was going to divide the sugar cubes, the children's eyes suddenly lit up.
chased the tiger's head.
"Brother Tiger Head, give me a piece."
"Brother Tiger Head is your name? Go away, go away, Brother Tiger is mine. ”
The tiger head listened, and the older children vied for his brother, and even the boys, who were reluctant to take him to play on weekdays, looked at him flatteringly.
Tiger Head suddenly felt that he was standing at the pinnacle of life!
Smile so much that you can't see your eyes.
"Oh, girl, you spoil children too much, sugar is expensive, you give them a big bag, it's not old money!"
Some aunts saw Ji Jing's big bag of candy, and they went out without blinking, and they felt sorry for her.
Ji Wan smiled: "Give the children sweet mouths, it's not every day, it's not in the way." ”
The eldest lady who has a child in the family who gets the candy has a smile on her face.
Xie Xianhua knew that Ji Wan had something to say to everyone, so he said to Ji Wan.
"I'll take the cow home with Gu Yiping first and build the cowshed."
Ji Wan nodded, and after Xie Xianhua left, she cleared her voice.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today I want to boil tomato sauce, I want to ask, if you are willing to help, I will pay the salary, 100 yuan a day."
A hundred pennies?
Hearing the price offered by Ji Wan, the eyes of everyone present widened in disbelief.
"No, no, no."
The ladies waved their hands.
"Folks, your family is too busy to work, let's go and help, it's right, how can we ask for money?"
The warm-hearted Aunt Chang glared at Ji Wan amusedly.
Ji Wan covered her mouth and smiled.
"Aunt Chang, I'm selling it for money, and this work will continue to be done for a long time in the future, this time you don't want to be paid, how can you be embarrassed to call you again next time?"
But a hundred is too much......
Those present know that in the county, the restaurant guys can only earn 35 wen li a day.
People are still looking for a job with lanterns, squeezing their heads, and relying on how many layers of relationships.
Some people thought that Ji Wan said the wrong price, and kindly reminded her.
"Girl, you're wrong about this salary, right?"
Ji Wan shook her head, in this dynasty, one tael of silver is equivalent to a thousand yuan.
One hundred copper plates, one hundred pieces.
In her opinion, doing hard work for a day, a hundred a day, is not very high.
Besides, boiling ketchup is not easy.
She affirmed: "One hundred Wen, there is nothing wrong, rest assured, I can't lose what I make." ”
Ji Wan thought for a while: "This time, about twenty people will be needed, if everyone is free, they can go to Xie's house to work today." ”
Twenty people?
There were only seven or eight aunts present.
They saw that Ji Wan really wanted to ask someone to work, and said that they couldn't lose it, and their minds suddenly became active.
Who doesn't have a few daughters-in-law who are diligent?
One hundred wen, if you go to two, won't it be two hundred?
Besides, Ji Jing can say it, there will be a long time after this life!
The big ladies who have a plan in their hearts, where can they stay?
They hurriedly said goodbye to Ji Wan and ran home in a hurry.
Ji Wan thought about it, the small clay pot at home was still given by the second son of Qian last time, and there was not much left.
She's going to order a batch and come back with ketchup.
Ji Wan vaguely remembered that in Qinglu Village, someone burned clay pots, it seemed to be the Qiu family?
Qiu's house in the north corner of Qinglu Village.
Fifteen-year-old Qiu Xiaoqiu was lying on the quilt, sobbing and crying.
Tears soaked the thin quilt.
Qiu Xiaoqiu's mother, also with tears on her face, sat by the kang, wiping her tears.
Qiu's father, who was covered with wind and frost, squatted on the threshold, his eyes were red, and his face was sad.
Half-loud, Daddy Qiu stood up and roared at Qiu Xiaoqiu.
"If you want to marry, you will marry, even if you cry to death, you will marry Lao Tzu!"
"Woo-woo-"
Qiu Xiaoqiu cried even more sadly.
Qiu Xiaoqiu's mother was distressed, and hurriedly persuaded: "Xiaoqiu, your father is for your good, our family hasn't burned a kiln for a long time, and we owe too many debts!" ”
"But I only like Second Brother Zeng."
"Hey!"
Qiu Xiaoqiu's mother sighed.
Who doesn't know that Zeng Er is a good one.
But the fire burns the eyebrows!
If the debts owed are not repaid, people will say that they will directly drag Xiaoqiu to the kiln to sell herself......
"Bang Bang Bang-"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Qiu Xiaoqiu's mother heard the movement, wiped her tears with her sleeve, got off the kang, and answered the door: "Who?" Come on. ”
When the courtyard door opened, she saw Ji Wan standing outside the courtyard, and immediately asked in surprise.
"Girl Ji, do you have something to do here?"
Ji Wan saw that Aunt Huang of the Qiu family's eyes were red, as if she had cried, and immediately asked hesitantly.
"I want to come to your house to order some small clay pots, if it's inconvenient for you, I'll come back next time, right?"
Aunt Huang also thought that Ji Wan's family needed a few clay pots in an emergency.
She barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
"You come in and get it, our kiln is also going to be closed, and there is still some stock in the yard, you pick a few, don't need money."
Ji Wan was stunned for a moment.
"Are you going to close the kiln? Won't it burn in the future? I also want to order 2,000 small clay pots at your house. ”
"How much do you say? Two thousand clay pots? Aunt Huang's voice was a little out of shape.
Ji Wan nodded.
"Oops——!"
She saw Aunt Huang slap her thigh, leave her, and run away.
Ji Wei: ......
After a while, the Qiu family of three hurriedly ran back.
Qiu Dahe rubbed his hands nervously and asked, "Ji Wan girl, you said you want two thousand clay pots?" Didn't fool me? ”
Ji Wan replied seriously again: "Order two thousand first, if the quality is okay, I will renew more quantities later." ”
"Do you want to order again?!" Qiu Dahe was short of breath and suspected that he was dreaming.
He pinched himself hard, and the pain hit him suddenly.
Qiu Dahe grinned.
He came back to his senses and hurriedly assured Ji Wan.
"The craftsmanship of our family's kiln is passed down from our ancestors, and the quality is good, but there is little business in this vicinity, so we can't do it."
