As soon as Chen Wen came back from the field, he saw his grandmother and Aunt Lian standing at the door chatting, and her grandmother faced her directly, saw her at a glance, and waved at her.

Chen Wen hurriedly trotted a few steps, and heard his grandmother say, "Your Aunt Lian is here." ”

So, Chen Wen hurriedly put down the farm tools in his hand and washed his hands and feet before coming out.

Li Suniang saw her come out, and she didn't delay the conversation between the two, "Then you guys talk first, I'll go in." ”

Chen Wen approached Aunt Lian, bent down slightly at her, and asked her about business: "That aunt asked you to deliver the cloth?" ”

"Yes."

The aunt was really acute, but she bought the cloth in two days and sent it over.

"That's right, fifty-six ......" Aunt Lian reported the size of Zheng Jiang's family, and the report was very detailed, and Chen Wen wrote them down one by one.

After reporting the size, Aunt Lian put her hand into her arms and took out her purse, "That cloth Aunt Li took in first, I will wait for you to come back, and I want to give you the money in person."

As he spoke, he opened his purse, poured out all the money inside, took Chen Wen's hand, and put the money in Chen Wen's hand.

The hand is heavy, and I slam it twice, is it so heavy to have one or two halves of silver?

Chen Wen looked down and saw that something was wrong.

It is not all copper plates, but a whole piece of whole silver and half a piece of broken silver, in addition to a few strings of copper plates, the number of money is not right, Chen Wen still divided the copper plate separately and counted it.

Before she could finish counting, Aunt Lian said, "Then I'll go first, I have to go back to cooking." ”

Chen Wen didn't answer, and Aunt Lian left in a hurry.

"Aunt Lian......"

called Aunt Lian, but Aunt Lian did not respond, and Chen Wen also counted the copper plates in his hand, and there were twenty-three more copper plates.

I told the aunt before, as long as one or two whole silver and half a piece of broken silver, where did the extra twenty copper plates come from?

More?

Chen Wen hurriedly went up to chase Aunt Lian.

"Aunt Lian, Aunt Lian......"

Before Aunt Lian reached the door, she heard Chen Wen calling her, and knew what Chen Wen was calling her, but she turned around and pretended to be garlic: "What's wrong?" ”

Chen Wen took out the copper plates separately and handed them to Aunt Lian, "That aunt gave more, and said that I couldn't charge more than one or two." ”

"If you give more, you can take it."

"I can't ask for it." Otherwise, how unprincipled!

Aunt Lian didn't accept it, so the two of them pushed and shoved it.

Aunt Lian saw that she didn't eat hard and soft, and she didn't lie to her, so she directly told her: "That's what I gave you." ”

"You gave it to me?"

"Make up for some of the money you liked before." Aunt Lian smiled embarrassedly at Chen Wen: "You see that you have done a good job in embroidery, Li Xiu'er will have more than one or two, and I will only give you sixty copper plates, wouldn't it be too little." ”

"It's not ......" Chen Wen was a little confused, how could he make up money for her in a good manner, they all said that the neighbors helped each other!

Aunt Lian was afraid that Chen Wen would dislike what she had given, so she said, "Don't be too little, when the grain is collected, I will make up for it for you." ”

"You don't need to make it up."

Chen Wen confiscated Sister Shuhua's money at the beginning, and now it is even more impossible to accept Aunt Lian. Forcefully shoved the money into her arms, took a few steps back, and ran home.

Aunt Liulian stood alone in place, her hand was slightly loosened, and the copper plate fell to the ground, she squatted down to pick it up, and sighed.

I didn't expect the little girl to be an open-eyed ...... Aunt Lian clenched the money in her hand, no matter what, when the time came to collect the food, just send more food to thank you.

After Chen Wen returned home, he went directly to the house to find his grandmother.

"Going to see Ah Lian?"

Li Suniang was sitting choosing vegetables.

Chen Wen nodded, and then shook his head after a while: "I'm going to pay back Aunt Lian's money." ”

Chen Wen moved a small stool and sat next to her to choose vegetables together.

"I heard Ah Lian say, you took on several embroidery jobs."

"Well, they are very satisfied with the clothes I made for Sister Shuhua, so they asked me to make the clothes."

"Then you're going to have to be busy again." Li Suniang pointed to the bedroom, "I put the cloth on the bed, but it's terrible, the cloth is cotton." ”

"Oh." Chen Wen pouted: "We can also wear cotton cloth in the future...... Ah no, it's silk cloth. ”

Chen Wen was not surprised that Zheng Jiang's would send cotton cloth, and she still had a golden hairpin on her head.

It seems that Sister Shuhua's in-laws are in good condition.

Li Suniang smiled at the corner of her mouth: "Then I'll wait for that day." ”

"Howler!"

After speaking, Chen Wen also finished choosing the last dish, washed and dried his hands, put his hands in his pocket, took out one or two whole silver in his purse, and handed it to Li Suniang.

Li Suniang looked down and was startled.

Yo, the whole silver, she hasn't seen her once in a few years, but she didn't expect her granddaughter to generously hand over the money to her.

But how could she accept the little girl's hard-earned money, so she waved her hand and refused: "Keep it for yourself." ”

Chen Wen knew that his grandmother was unwilling to accept it, just like he did with Aunt Lian, and stuffed the money into her arms: "I kept some for myself, and I don't need a whole piece of silver, this one is for you." ”

Li Suniang thought about it, Chen Wen is still young and has the ability to make money, but she spends money without restraint, for example, almost all of them are used to buy silkworm eggs, and she is indeed more at ease when she collects them.

After thinking about it, he put it in his arms, "Then I will save it and give it to you as a dowry in the future." ”

“…… Well. ”

What dowry is not dowry, it is too early to talk about dowry. Chen Wen doesn't care, if she really meets the right person and chooses to get married, at least after she becomes an adult, there will be several years.

When she grows up, she has a great ability to make money, so she can save money for her with grandma...... But Chen Wen didn't say it, anyway, now grandma can accept it.

After seeing that his grandmother was indeed in his arms, Chen Wen turned around and went back to the house: "Then I'll go and see what this cloth looks like first." ”

"Go ahead."

Chen Wen staggered twice, pushed open the door of the bedroom, and saw the cloth placed on the bed at a glance.

She walked over and habitually touched the touch of the cloth, which was very soft cotton, much better than coarse cloth, and then traced it with her fingers, thinking about what pattern to make after that.

The color of the cloth seems to be undyed, a bit similar to indigo, and it does not need other superfluous decorations, and it should be very dignified to wear.

But if you want to be a little more extravagant, it's a phoenix, a peacock and the like.

But the phoenix is the king of birds, auspicious things, and the royal family can use it, right? If she really dares to do it, there is a high probability that she will be arrested and sent to prison......

Peacock? No, it's too bells and whistles, and embroidering peacocks is quite complicated.

Thinking about it this way, it is really good to make some embroidery of flowers and plants.

Chen Wen thought a lot, but he denied it, either the color was strange, or it was too fresh.

It would be nice if there was a gold thread, and the gold thread could be done in any way, but she didn't have the capital to buy the gold thread now.

There were so many taboos that restricted Chen Wen, she shook her head and sighed.

Suddenly, Chen Wen patted his head and remembered the peony flower.

Peony is indeed very graceful and luxurious, but it is ...... I don't know if ordinary people can embroider?

When he thought of the peony, Chen Wen's mind came to mind with another flower, hibiscus flower!

Hibiscus is also taken from the meaning of wealth and glory, and few people should think of hibiscus if there are peonies, Chen Wen thought secretly.

Thinking of the rose-red petals of hibiscus flowers, Zheng Jiang should like it.

In this way, it was decided to embroider hibiscus flowers for Zheng Jiang's family.
