Chapter 119: The Big Number

Chen Wen spread her hair, her sleepy eyes were hazy, and she slowly drank the warm water that Li Suniang poured for her, while Li Suniang looked at the fire in the stove, whether to add some firewood, and after a while, the fire was smaller, so she went to lift the lid of the pot.

A stream of heat gushed out, covering Li Suniang's face.

She waved her cigarette and asked Chen Wen, who was still drinking water, "Is it fun in the city?" ”

Chen Wen bit the mouth of the cup and smiled: "It's fun." ”

Li Suniang quipped: "So it's not that you are playful and missed the hour, and it was only so late yesterday." ”

She was supposed to wait for Chen Wen to come back yesterday, but she came back too late and accidentally fell asleep while sitting.

Chen Wen pursed his mouth, very aggrieved: "It's not me." ”

It's obviously Brother Yang Mu and Brother Tianquan, and they don't know what to do, so they came to look for them late, so they returned late.

Not her subjective.

Li Suniang didn't continue to entangle her about this.

After serving the meal, he brought it to the table, scratched her nose dotingly, and said, "Go and comb your hair." ”

After Chen Wen obediently drank all the water, he went to comb his hair back.

The two were eating breakfast quietly, and suddenly Li Suniang knocked her forehead with the end of her chopsticks and put the chopsticks heavily on the table: "I'll just say I forgot something." ”

"What's the matter?"

"After you left yesterday, a bride came to the door and said that she was in a hurry and wanted to ask you to make clothes, but you were not there. As a result, when I had just finished eating in the evening, the bride came again, and you still didn't come back, so I told them to let them come back tomorrow. ”

Bride? Chen Wen thought about it for a moment and suddenly realized. It must be that the bride wants to bring business to introduce to her.

But after a while, Chen Wen bit his chopsticks and frowned: "In one day, look for two trips?" ”

"Maybe it's a bit of a hurry, but unfortunately, you're really not at home."

Every time Chen Wen was not at home, someone always came to look for her, but she was at home and had nothing to do.

"Then I won't go out today, just wait for her here."

"Hmm."

But after that, Chen Wen was at home all day and didn't see Xi Niang.

When I went to bed at night, I closed my eyes and talked to Li Suniang about it.

Li Suniang said with a smile: "It seems that she is not in a hurry, and she looked for it twice yesterday." ”

"Perhaps."

Xi Niang should really no longer be in a hurry, or have already found another embroidery girl, anyway, Chen Wen will not see Xi Niang for the next few days, Chen Wen will leave this behind in advance.

And these days, Chen Wen has finally finished the new clothes of the little lady in Zhenglin Village.

When I went to Zhenglin Village to deliver clothes, I happened to meet a merchant in Zhenglin Village.

It was the merchant who saw Chen Wen first.

Chen Wen walked out of the distance, only to hear someone behind her shouting her name, she turned around, and saw the merchant chasing her with a burden, she stopped.

The merchant was quite surprised to see Chen Wen in Zhenglin Village: "I thought I saw the wrong person, and I asked you to not answer for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be you...... Why did you come to Zhenglin Village? ”

"Go and give the little lady new clothes." Chen Wen looked behind him and asked him, "How is it, how was that purse sold last time?" Didn't sell a few, or all ......"

As soon as he mentioned this, the merchant's face was full of folds, and he smiled blindly: "Thanks to you, they were all sold, and I made a lot of money." ”

Chen Wen said with peace of mind: "It's my blessing to you." ”

Someone likes it, someone is willing to buy it, that's good.

The merchant didn't say anything polite to Chen Wen, and smiled even more heartily.

"But when I met you in Zhenglin Village, I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter?"

The merchant searched the merchant, and quickly took out a crumpled piece of paper, blushed a little, and showed it to Chen Wen.

Hesitated, embarrassed to speak: "I originally wanted to find a storyteller and ask him to see what was written on it, but I forgot it when I was busy, and when I saw you today, I completely remembered that there was such a thing." ”

Chen Wen took the paper, spread it out, didn't look at it, tilted his head and motioned for the merchant to continue.

The merchant took the money from his pocket, counted it, counted enough of it, and gave it to Chen Wen.

Chen Wen frowned and didn't answer.

"The purse didn't sell well in the countryside, so I tried to sell it in the other side of the city, but in less than half an hour, it was all bought."

The merchant stretched out his other hand again, pointed to the paper in Chen Wen's hand and said: "The one who gave me this piece of paper is an old woman, she bought three purses from me, and then after a while, she turned back and told me that the hostesses of her family all want a purse, and asked me if I could accept this order." ”

Chen Wen raised his eyes and looked at the money in his hand and said, "Then what is this?" ”

"This is the deposit she gave." The merchant scratched the back of his head quite embarrassedly: "If you don't want to, I'll go to the city another day, refund the deposit, and apologize to her, and the matter will be over." ”

Chen Wen didn't answer, and when he said this, he turned over the crumpled piece of paper on his hand.

Speaking of this paper, the merchant was a little weak-hearted: "You give it to me first, I'll find a storyteller another day and ask what is written on it, and then tell you." ”

Chen Wen turned his hand away, smiled at him and shook his head: "You don't need to find any storyteller, I understand." ”

The merchant grew his mouth, a little surprised, and when Chen Wen looked at her, he secretly looked at her.

Can there be a girl who can read and write in the countryside?

is really a talented girl, can make clothes, make money, can be literate, born in a large family must be heavily cultivated.

It's a pity, it's a pity.

Chen Wen didn't know what the merchant was thinking at all, she looked at the words on it, and her originally frowning brows eased a little.

Especially when I saw the last sentence, I couldn't hide my happiness.

It's a bit tongue-twisting, but it's roughly what it means.

The deposit is five taels of silver, the total number of purses is more than forty, and the total amount of fifty taels of silver is completed.

This is a big deal for Chen Wen, not to mention the sentence at the end of her sentence, there are many rewards. How to look, how to be tempted.

Chen Wen put away the note, pursed his lips, thought about it, and said to the merchant: "The old lady is a subordinate in which house?" ”

"I don't know." It's a shame that he doesn't know anything.

Chen Wen looked left and right, lowered his voice, and repeated the words on the note to the merchant.

After hearing this, the merchant's eyes widened.

Fifty taels of silver, that's the money he can earn in three or four years, Chen Wen can earn fifty taels of silver? Which big family is that family, no, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, he will have to go to the city and ask in a while.

Then come back and hug Chen Wen's thighs, this little girl can earn fifty taels casually, how capable she is.

"I'll go to the city and ask later, say hello, I'll tell you another day." After the merchant finished speaking, he remembered Chen Wen's words just now, and asked her, "Then what do you think?" ”

"Such a large order and money, naturally have to be accepted."

The merchant was very satisfied with Chen Wen's answer, and Chen Wen was also quite satisfied with the business.

She put her hands behind her back and counted. Fifty taels, how many clothes do she have to make to earn it?
