After a while, the person in front of Liu's meeting was holding a bowl, the wooden pestle was in place, without saying a word, and the sad eyes of the complaining people suddenly rose and stared at her for a moment. He scolded faintly in his heart: This woman! Isn't it very good on weekdays, but today I will pretend to be stupid and not move here!

Chu Jianniang looked at Liu's expression and was really stunned, and after a pause, Han handed over the bowl in her hand and said, "Mother, my daughter-in-law knows that you are suffering, you see...... Why don't you eat something first to fill your stomach? If you don't eat like this, you'll crush your body. ”

Stupid woman! Woman! Liu almost scolded angrily, and then thought about where she was stupid, where was she stupid? Didn't you just do it on purpose to show her! What a Chu Jiaoniang!

Since they were all pretending, Liu simply took his breath, turned his physical and mental appearance to the sad place, and sighed: "Alas...... Thinking about Yu'er all day long, how can I have any appetite. You'd better go out! I don't want to eat. ”

This has the meaning of wanting to catch the old and indulging in the bitter flesh. Chu Jianniang was stunned for a long time, and wrinkled her eyebrows around a little distressed and worried, but she was also very obedient and obedient to put the bowl back.

"Oh, that, that...... Mother, you are so resting, I will go out, I will help you leave the food in the pot, if you are hungry, tell me, I will bring it to you. As he spoke, he hesitated, and finally turned around.

Suddenly, Liu's heart is a landmine! This woman! Sure enough, I didn't get into her set! Miscalculated, miscalculated!

Seeing her leave, Liu's eyes were complaining, so he ripped it off.

Chu Jianniang walked to the door with the bowl, stopped and thought for a moment, and after letting out a long breath, she finally folded back.

After all, it's not easy for the old man to make a show, after all, she has been depressed for so long, and she, who is a daughter-in-law, always needs to see it. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I have to say that her daughter-in-law abuses her mother-in-law.

As soon as she stepped forward, Chu Jianniang was a little dog-legged, and she was very fond of Liu's arms and said: "Mother, Wei Lang sent a letter back today, and I forgot to tell you." I see that there is a bit of weight in it, so I should have sent silver, and I will take it out for you later, and buy a dowry for my little sister. My little sister is your daughter-in-law, and she always wants her mother to take care of it. The daughter-in-law is stupid, she didn't expect to come here, you don't have to blame. ”

"Also, these days I am helping people to work outside, the owner gave some silk satin of the edge material, I see it is also excellent, so I made two quilts for my little sister, I heard that my father has entrusted someone to make two boxes of three-layer open boxes, these don't have to worry about you, you just need to prepare some jewelry."

Suddenly hearing the eye-catching words, Liu Shi was caught off guard, stared sharply, and blinked for a long time. Heart: Could it be ...... Guanyin Bodhisattva has appeared?

If you can hear Liu's inner words, Chu Jianniang wants to say: It was she who appeared.

Chu Jianniang smiled back obediently, put down the meal, and withdrew......

Wei Xuan once told her that the Liu family has never really worried about anyone, and every ten sentences that come out of Liu's mouth, eight of them are asking for money under the guise of asking for money, and these are all experienced.

Since the family was "frank" by Chu Jianniang, the Liu family has not been able to find a good opportunity to pry money out of her. This time, Chu Jianniang even intercepted her desire to send Jiang Yu to Da Zhuangzi Household, but it made her hold her breath for a long time.

Since then, Liu has been thinking about it all the time, she just doesn't eat or drink, she dies here, and she will definitely get some money out of her hands. I don't believe she can be so ruthless! So I borrowed the matter of my sister's marriage and came here.

I thought that Chu Jianniang's woman would be able to put on the set in two days, but I didn't expect to dry her alive for a month, a month!

Chu Jianniang can't bear it after all!

At night, Chu Jianniang sat by the desk in front of the window in the house, and only then did she have time to open the letter forwarded by Fu Zhuoyi. This time, there were few words written in the letter, but a lot of items were sent.

A silver hairpin with a cloud and phoenix pattern, a pair of azure jade-bead earrings, and a pair of silver bracelets engraved with entwined peonies, all wrapped in a fragrant handkerchief embroidered with lotus pond moonlight, and the other are scattered, like a dozen taels of silver.

Chu Jianniang mentioned in the previous letter to Wei Xuan that the little sister said that the date was set on the eighth day of the lunar month, Wei Xuan replied this time that he was afraid that he would not be able to come back, so he prepared these jewelry in advance as the dowry of the little sister, and also said that if there was spare money at home, he would give her more money.

Wei Xuan is also a soft-hearted person, things are clearer than her, Liu's treatment of the family is one thing, but marrying a little sister is another. After all, he went out with the Wei family, and it was not easy for people to look at it, and he said behind his back how the Wei family treated his stepdaughter, so he had to pay more attention to it than his sister's daughter. It's the same as the old man.

After Chu Jianniang counted these, she went to the cabinet and took out her makeup, and pulled out the bottom layer. There is some money she earned by doing her own work, and some of the money she sent before, and the total is only more than ten taels and two. Originally, I wanted to prepare to return it to Fu Zhuoyi, but in this way, I couldn't prepare it.

Before going out the next day, Chu Jianniang came out with five taels and gave it to Liu in private. Liu has been acting for so long, after getting the money, the whole person is in a lot of energy, Chu Jiaoniang was almost dumbfounded, it seems that money is really good medicine for her.

For the rest, Chu Jianniang gave it to the old man, preparing for her on the day of her little sister's wedding. Even if the jewelry is even there, she is not in a hurry to give it to the little sister, Chu Jiaoniang will keep it herself. I can also beg in my heart that I can earn enough money in the last month or so.

After explaining the matter, Chu Jianniang went out.

Shen Yunyan was waiting for Chu Jianniang in front of her house, and when she saw her coming down, she handed the child over to her mother, put her basket on her back, and chased after her.

"Jiao Niang, I thought about it all night yesterday. You said that we should go out early and return late every day, and go to the owner's shop to make those things, you might as well discuss with the owner, let's take the things home and make them, and then send them over when they are ready. Save the hassle. ”

On the way, Shen Yunyan said her thoughts.

Chu Jianniang also thought about it, and also thought about whether to learn from a few other ladies, follow some materials, do it privately, sell it privately, anyway, it is all leftover materials, it is said that it is counted, but it will only be counted after the thing is made.

But then I thought about it, these silk ropes and velvet tassels are all objects and things that are very loved by literati and scholars, how can ordinary people get these? Unless it's practical silk satin. So I suppressed this thought.

"You can talk to the owner and take it home and make it. I can't. ”

"Why not?"

Chu Jianniang sighed slightly in her heart: There is a little sister at home! The little sister will definitely not help with things, if she makes a good-looking appearance, with the little sister's temperament of picking up bells and whistles, she will definitely be able to take it away for her one by two. What money do you still make?

"If I'm at home, I'm afraid I'll have to do it all at home, so I'm willing to go back and forth. It is better to walk around and practice your body. Chu Jianniang said intentionally, but this is also a truth.

Shen Yunyan laughed when she heard this: "You, you can think of these." But then I thought about it, when I saw that you came back from outside, you were still busy with the things in the house? Your mother-in-law and sister-in-law are even in the house, and they don't see anyone who can help you live. Hey, yes,"

Shen Yunyan thought about something, and said, "I can listen to my mother say that your mother-in-law has been depressed for many days. This outside can be said that you are the daughter-in-law of the Wei family, and you don't take this stepmother and stepmother in your eyes! ”

Chu Jianniang's forehead darkened, and she knew that such words would come out. But it took such a while to reach her ears, which was enough to give her face.

I wanted to make an explanation, but after thinking for a while, Chu Jianniang smiled and felt that it was better to forget it.

Some words, the more you explain, the more you pick things up, and the more tired you are. Go back and give a few more pieces of silver to your home, and we'll see.

Halfway through the journey, Chu Jianniang was alone in a certain thought, and said to herself: "It's almost the winter moon, if the owner can't make much money, I think...... Aren't there a lot of people in the county who have started selling firewood and charcoal? Do you think we should also find a way to get some charcoal to sell? Moreover, the government is also collecting charcoal every year, and it is sure that it can make a little money. ”

Speaking of ways to make money, Shen Yunyan was also energetic in an instant, and her eyes lit up: "It's feasible!" My mother-in-law's family was ...... Bah! Xu Pozi of Liuhe Village, as soon as October, will sell these things, and there are more than ten taels in a winter! ”

Chu Jianniang never thought that she really had a way, she was also a money-loving person, especially at this critical juncture, more than ten taels was a lot!

"Okay, then find someone to lead the way? Let's try it in the county? ”

"But aren't we still working here with Aunt Ruan Ping? Separated? Shen Yunyan was embarrassed.

Chu Jianniang said: "According to what you said, let's find the owner to take the materials home and make them, and I will go to your house to do it together." During the day, we went to the mountains to find good firewood, went to the county to sell it, and came back at night to do fine work. If we don't have enough time, it's also feasible for us to do fine work while selling. But to see if we can find another helper to help pull the cart, we will definitely not be able to. ”

Shen Yunyan thought about it and nodded: "It's a feasible way." ”
