Chapter 70: Delivery

Since the night Wu Tong came to the house, the family affairs of the two families have been officially announced to the public, and all the processes have been carried out step by step.

The embroidery work of Helan was also completed yesterday, and I plan to deliver it ahead of schedule today.

After all, this is Helan's first time to take such a large order, Zhang Niangzi is somewhat uneasy, and a few days ago, she asked someone to spread the word that Helan would follow when she delivered the embroidery work.

Helan also knew what she meant, it was nothing more than that she was afraid that she would have any responsibilities to bear, or if she was dissatisfied, she could still change it in a hurry when she was there.

Helan was also afraid that there was something wrong over there, and she was not there, and when she came back, she couldn't tell herself clearly, so she wanted to follow.

just remembered that Wu's mother didn't seem to like going out by herself, so she carefully explained the situation to Wu's mother, but she didn't expect Wu's mother to agree happily after hearing it.

"Go ahead, just come back early."

Helan looked at Wu's mother's back and didn't react for a while.

Speaking of which, Helan didn't know why Wu's mother didn't want to let her go out with her, so she inquired with Qingmei on the side, and heard Qingmei's meaning that Wu's mother felt that women should stay at home and teach their husbands and children, and they couldn't go out to show their heads.

Born in such a war-torn period, most of the women were traded like goods, and they were beautiful, and they didn't know when they went out and were seen by the big officials, and they would bring trouble to the family.

Helan had never seen anything like this, but she didn't have so much resistance to Wu's mother's thoughts.

I've only been here for less than a year, and I don't know a lot about it, so it's always right to listen to other people's opinions and be careful.

It was not his own family who brought Helan into the city today, but Uncle Haishen, and Qingmei was accompanied by him.

In the past two days, the family has been busy watering and fertilizing the fields, catching insects and weeds, and they are not idle at all.

Helan was busy with the work in hand to avoid the fate of exposure, while Qingmei was able to raise it at home because the family affairs were about to be decided.

As long as the girl's family is married, some people who pay attention to it, the girl will not work in the field a year before she gets married, and now that the marriage with Wu Tong is done, Wu's mother did not let Qingmei go to the ground.

If Helan was allowed to go out alone, Wu's mother would not be at ease, so after thinking about it, she still let Qingmei come with her.

Wu Qingquan shouted that he wanted to come, but was told by Wu's mother, and he was depressed and could only follow Wu's father to the field.

And Wu Qingzhu hasn't come back for a few days, and last time a young man surnamed Wang came to the house, pulled Wu Qingzhu into the carriage and left.

When I came today, Wu's mother also instructed the two of them to go to the bookstore to have a look, and if they met Wu Qingzhu, remember to call him back.

After the two of them entered the city gate, they got off Uncle Haishen's carriage, and after asking the time to go back, they walked in different directions.

This Uncle Haishen is also a person who does things in the village, and he was the one who led people down the mountain to inquire about the situation.

Today, I came to the county seat to do things to help the village purchase, and most of the people in the village who did not have a carriage wanted to enter the county seat, so the village chief also came up with a fixed time to say what was needed, and the village collectively bought it.

If you need anything else, you can also take advantage of this time to take out a penny and take a carriage to the county seat.

This is also the two sisters-in-law who come out to act alone, and when they meet people, they will subconsciously hide, for fear that the people who bully men and women they heard before will appear.

Fortunately, there was no danger along the way, and Zhang Niangzi noticed Helan as soon as she sent a customer away, and welcomed the two people into the back room with a courteous face.

Zhang Niangzi is also a cautious person, I heard that Helan embroidered and did not rush to give money, let Xiao Er serve tea, and took the wedding dress to the table to lay out.

After checking it several times from beginning to end, he put his mind at ease, raised a smile and walked to Helan: "The embroidery work done by the little lady is as reassuring as ever, look at this workmanship, I really don't have to choose." ”

"Thank you."

"In this case, I'll give you half of the money first, you two come with me, and I'll give you the rest of the money when the master's side thinks it's okay."

Helan and Qingmei glanced at each other, not knowing what decision to make.

"Don't worry, it's not far away, you just wait outside the door, I don't think there's a problem."

As soon as I heard this lady say this, I was relieved, and followed Zhang Niangzi to the slightly richer area of the city.

"Mrs. Zhang, we have to hurry up and go back quickly, my father-in-law is still buying things in other stores, and he will come to the store to look for us in a while, and if he can't find it, he should be in a hurry." Helan saw that the alley he was walking was a little remote, so he opened his mouth a little uneasily.

In order to tell this Zhang Niangzi that when the two of them came, there was a man with them, but don't do anything bad, you must have a heart to guard against people.

"It's coming soon, we're going to the back door of his house, so you can rest assured that this day in the alley, there are people going door to door here, and nothing will happen." Mrs. Zhang also understands people, and if she doesn't put any effort into it, she naturally has nothing to be vain.

As she spoke, she didn't expect it to arrive, and as soon as Mrs. Zhang knocked on the door twice, a mother-in-law opened the door inside.

Seeing that there were a lot of people, he couldn't help frowning.

"Mother-in-law, don't panic, this is the embroidery girl, the clothes have been embroidered, I thought that if there is any problem with the main family, the embroidery girl is also there, and it will be solved quickly, so I let them follow."

"Okay, let them wait at the door, my wife doesn't like outsiders to come in."

The corners of Qingmei's mouth twitched, isn't this just that she clearly looks down on them and doesn't let them in, and most of the rich people in the city are like this.

Helan looked at the closed back door and just smiled, pulling Qingmei and sitting on the stone in the corner.

"Not to mention, it's pretty cool here!"

Seeing that Qingmei was a little unhappy, Helan fanned the wind with her hand and opened her mouth first. Qingmei listened to what Helan said and felt it, not to mention, it was really much cooler.

The wind seems to be flowing, blowing all the way down the alley, and there is no sun shining in, so it is really a good place to cool off in summer.

"It's cooler and much more comfortable."

"This land is really good, and we will buy a house here when we have money in the future."

"The house here is more expensive, where can we afford it!"

"Man! There are always some unfulfilled dreams, and besides, money can solve problems that are not a problem. ”

Qingmei also smiled, she liked Helan to say something to herself that she hadn't heard before.

The two of them stayed for a while, and after the sweat on their bodies dried, Mrs. Zhang came out of it with something, and the smile on her face couldn't hide it.

After Zhang Niangzi gave the two of them a look, she led the two of them to leave from here.

After walking a distance, he cautiously looked behind, and when he saw that there was no one, he smiled and said: "The little lady is really my lucky star, I haven't been so happy to take over his family's work in the past, but I didn't expect that there was no requirement this time." ”

"That ......"

"I understand, I understand, na, this is another tael of silver, you take it."

Helan was also relieved after getting the money, I was really afraid that this lady would say something to deduct some silver taels, but she had listened to Wu's mother a lot in the past few days.

"By the way, I heard that you were waiting outside the door, so the lord's family gave you a wedding cake."

Helan was not polite, handed it over and continued, although these things are not expensive, but they will not spend money to buy them, and if they don't like to eat, they can take them back to their families to eat.
