Chapter 51: Long-term dreams
Ma Xiaoqian pulled Abi to the counter of Dejuxian, and settled the account quickly, and Abi ate five taels of silver for this meal. Abi looked at the young lady checking out, and felt a little embarrassed, but she had been thinking about this Dejuxian meal for many months, and she was shy.
1. Looking for an old tailor again
Abi looked at Miss Ma Si with a smile, this time it really broke the bill, five taels of silver is nothing in the eyes of Miss, in her own place, it is her own salary for a year, which is enough to support the family's expenses for a year.
"Abi, what's wrong with your eyes?" Ma Xiaoqian looked at Abi suspiciously
"No, no, no, I just feel that I spent a little too much money this time, and I'm a little embarrassed," Abi said carefully
"Look at your stupid appearance, what kind of place is Dejuxian? The people who come here are all dignitaries and nobles, children of rich families, how can the food here be cheap, it costs five taels of silver is nothing, hurry up and go, we still have business to do", Ma Xiaoqian pulled Abi and said as she walked
"Miss, you've been spending a lot of money lately", Abi looked at Miss and said, tidying up the house for Brother Kong and arranging the furniture, which cost more than a hundred taels of silver.
"Take advantage of the money to toss more, anyway, the house is decorated, when I see Brother Kong and Sister Liu, I have to negotiate with them, I spent so much money, and their house is so big, when I am in trouble one day, they must take me in", Ma Xiaoqian said with a smile
"Miss, you're thinking about the long term, I haven't thought about it," said Abi
"Think about it, Brother Kong, this will be the time to be in trouble, I helped them, so can they treat me badly in the future? This friend, I want to make friends, I can't bear to be a wolf that my children can't do, I am now taking advantage of my own strength, then help my friends around me more, what will happen to me in the future, at least I will not be alone", Ma Xiaoqian said with a smile
"How do you know that Miss Liu and Brother Kong will understand your affection and remember you well? What if they ignore it? Abi said
"Although Sister Liu has a bad temper, she is not bad-hearted, I can see it. Brother Kong, kind-hearted, not a bad person, I believe in them", Ma Xiaoqian said seriously
"Okay, my eldest lady, I'm really convinced of you, you're gambling", Abi said helplessly
"It's not a gamble, I still trust my instincts. The facts also prove that I am happy to be with Sister Liu", Ma Xiaoqian looked at Abi and said
"Okay, I hope Miss's eyes are not wrong", Ah Bi lowered her head and said, except for her grandmother and herself, few young ladies in Mafu really treat Miss Four. All the subordinates looked at the ladies and ladies in the courtyard in front of them, and few people would come over to talk to our young ladies.
"I have a hunch that our Ma Mansion will definitely not be peaceful in the future, a few little ladies in the house, I really don't dare to provoke them, but seeing that several sisters are about to get married, for the dowry, they are all fighting openly and secretly, I am very annoyed when I look at it", Ma Xiaoqian said angrily
"Hey, anyway, as long as the flames of war don't burn into our backyard, I'm really afraid of them, and we have all fallen victim to the war," Abi said aggrievedly
2. Dream big
"Hey, don't talk about them, I want to take advantage of the fact that I still have a little foundation, try my best to develop the relationship outside, and when the war breaks out one day, I will take my grandmother to escape from Mafu and leave the place of right and wrong", Ma Xiaoqian said with a fist in her tugging
"Well, no wonder Miss is so generous with money, it was all premeditated," Abi said with a smile
"What do you say? Silly girl, you're only now reacting", Ma Xiaoqian looked at Abi and said
"Well, I thought that Miss was only interested in playing all day long, but it turned out that she had planned all this," said Abi
"That is, over the years, my grandmother has not taught me those things in vain, I know them by heart", Ma Xiaoqian said confidently
"Miss takes a fancy to Miss Liu's ......," Abi said after a pause
"The first Sister Liu's people are very good, and the second Sister Liu's craftsmanship is very exquisite, such a good craft, if you don't take it out and show it, wouldn't it be a waste", Ma Xiaoqian said seriously
"Then Miss wants to ......," Abi asked, looking at Miss
"I want to open a dyeing shop in the future, from the production of cloth to the dyeing of cloth, as well as embroidery, as well as the customization of clothes, etc., what kind of effect do you think it will have if it is made into a store of that size?" Ma Xiaoqian said with a smile
"Ah, how big is that, and how much does it cost?" Abi said as he counted his fingers
"Start small, and then slowly expand," Ma said
"How many people do you need", Abi said with a glare, how many people are needed on such a large scale, I can't imagine here.
"It's not difficult to be a person, as long as you find a few key people, then this thing will be easy to do," Ma Xiaoqian said scratching her head
"But if it is made on such a large scale, and the other ladies of our Ma Mansion know about it, what should we do? They're going to come and wreak havoc," Abi said worriedly
"I've also thought about this problem, you can open it in a remote place, and then transport it to Qingyun City, so that it won't attract the attention of others," Ma Xiaoqian said with a smile
"Paper can't contain fire, if you hang out here often, the people in the front yards will definitely find out, and they will definitely ask the three ladies for credit," said Abi as she looked at the young lady
"Don't worry about this, there are Sister Liu and Brother Kong", Ma Xiaoqian said with a smile, as long as I don't come forward, even if they find out, it doesn't matter.
"Okay, I got to know Miss again today, you are hiding so deeply", Abi said with a smile as she took Miss by the hand
"Oh, I'm not pretending to be stupid, can those guys in the front yard let me go? Will I live as safe and sound as I am now? Ma Xiaoqian said with a smile
"Okay, Miss is still you," Abi said with a thumbs up
"These are all taught by grandma, when you should be a person with your tail between your legs, you must learn to hold your tail, if you are too arrogant and public, not only at any time, will not end well", Ma Xiaoqian said seriously
"The old woman is so good to you, if only I had such a good grandmother", Abi hugged Ma Xiaoqian and said helplessly
"Okay, okay, Abi, don't make trouble, as long as your young lady and I are safe and sound, then what? Your young lady's good sister will naturally have a good life", Ma Xiaoqian smiled mischievously
