Chapter 66

According to the contract that Jiang Xuehe originally signed with them, except for Yang Dashu and Yang Xiaohua, she did not pay them, as long as they provided them with food, clothing, housing and transportation. But at that time she was wary of them, and did not want to get along with them too closely, so as not to cultivate affection.

But now she needs to hire people everywhere, and the Diao family and the Xie family brothers are very diligent and have helped do a lot of things, and she can't treat each other coldly like before. Besides, they are all so good at doing things, if she doesn't pay her again, her conscience won't be able to get by. Jiang Xuehe simply wrote down their wages for the previous months in the account book, and then packed several bags of money for Diao Ruyue to send down.

Diao Ruyue looked at the silver and didn't take it: "They won't accept it." ”

Jiang Xuehe smiled: "If they don't accept it, then you will make an account book for them to collect it?" ”

"Madam, we have sold ourselves to you now, and we should do things for you, and Madame doesn't have to pay anything."

"Even if it is a large family that buys a pair of house slaves, it is also a monthly payment of silver to the house slaves, if you don't accept it, won't it be just for me to be accused of mistreating people?" Jiang Xuehe pretended to be unhappy and said, "Besides, you don't have any money on hand, so I have to arrange food, drink, housing and transportation, wouldn't that add a lot of trouble to me?" ”

Diao Ruyue couldn't help laughing: "Madame is also sharp-toothed, so in this way, in order not to cause you trouble, my father and mother can only accept this silver." ”

"That's what they deserve, so why don't they take it? You shouldn't be too greedy, but you can't suffer either. Jiang Xuehe smiled, "Hurry up and send them to them, and go out with me later, I want to go to Carpenter Yao to customize some more molds, and you will accompany me back to Jiang's house to pick some cherry blossoms in a few days." ”

Diao Ruyue asked: "I have never seen cherry blossoms before, is it because of Shi Jiuniang that my wife wants to pick cherry blossoms?" ”

Jiang Xuehe nodded: "Second Brother Yang said that Shi Jiuniang's family has a hundred flowers, and a hundred flowers banquet will be held in late spring every year, I think that if there is some food suitable for the occasion, and it is the only one at present, Shi Jiuniang should be happy." ”

Jiang Xuehe learned a recipe for making transparent pastries in the fantasy world, and she made transparent pear blossom cakes based on that recipe, which also sold well because of its ingenious appearance. However, the raw materials of the transparent dim sum are limited, and she doesn't have much left in her hands now, so she can only make another twenty or thirty pieces of cherry blossom cake.

However, since she started doing business, Jiang Xuehe feels that she is getting darker and darker, and according to her original mold, she can only make twenty or thirty yuan, so if she makes a smaller mold again, won't she be able to make a few more?

When Jiang Xuehe went to Yao Carpenter to customize the mold, he found that He Dongsheng was also there, He Dongsheng saw that Jiang Xuehe was very tall, and directly put down the work in his hand and came to say hello.

"The fourth cousin is here, I don't know what the fourth cousin wants to do today."

Jiang Xuehe was surprised: "Is the second brother-in-law doing things here at Carpenter Yao now?" ”

He Dongsheng scratched his head and smiled: "Fortunately, Master Yao is not disgusted and is willing to take me in." ”

Carpenter Yao sneered: "If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't move some things when I was old, could I take you in?" ”

Jiang Xuehe couldn't help but smile when she heard this, thinking that this Yao carpenter was also hard-mouthed, as if he was looking for He Dongsheng to come over and do heavy work, but when she came in, she obviously saw He Dongsheng sharpening the chair.

He Dongsheng smiled: "It's all good, anyway, Master Yao is still willing to take me in, and I am already very grateful." ”

Carpenter Yao snorted at him, turned his head and asked Jiang Xuehe again: "What are you going to hit this time?" ”

Jiang Xuehe smiled: "There are a few new molds that need to bother Master Yao." ”

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome, I like to make molds for you." Carpenter Yao smiled.

He really likes to make molds for Jiang Xuehe, the things customized by the countrymen are generally relatively simple, only Jiang Xuehe needs to carve a variety of different flowers, Yao Carpenter also likes to carve flowers, and thinks it is more interesting to do than other things. In addition, Jiang Xuehe is very happy to give money, and there are many lists that can be given, who doesn't like this?

After Jiang Xuehe finished chatting with Carpenter Yao, she asked He Dongsheng again: "Second brother-in-law's new house should be built soon, right?" ”

He Dongsheng said with a smile: "It will be done in a few days, and the fourth sister must bring the fourth brother-in-law and them over to eat and drink!" ”

"That's a certainty, it's just that we have a lot of Gu Jiajiang family, brother-in-law, don't dislike us, just eat you poor." Jiang Xuehe said with a smile.

"How can it, if it weren't for my father-in-law and their four sisters to help, I don't know if I can have it now, even if you bring everyone here, Chun'er also wants to thank you."

"The second sister is just too polite." Jiang Xuehe sighed with emotion, and was very happy to see He Dongsheng's sincere eyes.

He Dongsheng is actually much more reliable than she imagined, looking at his posture, he should have been with Carpenter Yao for a while, even if Carpenter Yao likes him, it must be his own talent and ability. According to He Dongsheng and Jiang Yingchun, he should not have touched the carpenter's work for many years, but when she first saw He Dongsheng making chairs, he also looked like him.

As long as He Dongsheng can maintain his current quality, it doesn't matter if he can't pay back the money in three years, what she wants is actually just an attitude, she prefers Jiang Yingchun and Little Butterfly to live well compared to that bit of silver.

"By the way, what has the second sister been doing lately?" Jiang Xuehe asked again.

He Dongsheng said truthfully: "Chun'er has been at her father-in-law's house recently, helping with sewing and washing, and planting vegetables in the field. The fourth sister also knows that there is a large fruit forest in her father-in-law's house, and Chun'er is very busy every day. ”

This Jiang Xuehe naturally knew that in the past, when Jiang Yingchun was not married, he was busy with these all day long, at that time, everyone said that Jiang Yingchun was a first-class and capable girl, and she could live a good life no matter where she married in the future, but who would have thought that He family would be in such a situation?

Jiang Xuehe felt that Jiang Yingchun was naturally good to help in the third room, but she was already a daughter who was married outside, and she was much busier at home, even if Uncle Jiang and the Tong family felt sorry for their daughter and wanted to share her money, she was embarrassed to take it. But wouldn't that be a wasted effort?

Thinking that Jiang Yingchun's needlework was not bad, Jiang Xuehe came up with a new idea.

When she went back, she discussed it with Gu Sixian, because the silk flowers made by Gu Sixian were basically sold to rich families, so could Jiang Yingchun make something specifically to sell to ordinary people? The materials only need the most ordinary and cheapest, but the style must be absolutely new, to avoid duplication with others, and the price can be slightly more expensive than others, which is controlled within the range that everyone can afford.

Gu Sixian thought for a while and said, "In addition to silk flowers, you can also make some children's clothes." Doesn't Sister Yingchun have a two-year-old daughter at home? Children's clothes are made with less material and are easier to make. ”

Jiang Xuehe said with a smile: "Yes, when a mother always wants to dress her daughter up beautifully, the second sister has a good eye, and she will definitely be able to cut beautiful clothes suitable for children." But silk flowers and the like, I bother you to teach the second sister. ”

Gu Sixian smiled: "Actually, I thought about it, if Sister Yingchun is willing to come over to help me, then will I be able to take more orders?" There is also Yunlan, Yunlan is naturally skillful, not only does embroidery learn quickly, but she has seen me do it a few times, and she can also make a good one. Sister-in-law came over to take a look, this string of jasmine is made by Yunlan, what do you think? ”

Jiang Xuehe took the string of jasmine flowers and looked at it, and said in surprise: "This is done by Yunlan alone?" ”

Gu Sixian smiled: "Isn't it? This is what Yunlan secretly did at night alone, I didn't interfere at all, and when I got up in the morning and saw it, I was even more surprised than my sister-in-law. ”

Jiang Xuehe looked at the string of jasmine flowers several times, and said sincerely: "It's really beautiful." ”

Each of the jasmine flowers is very realistic, and even dyed with a faint jasmine fragrance. Jiang Xuehe remembered that Pei's began to like jasmine last year, not only raised a pot in the house herself, but also made a jasmine-scented sachet for several of their sisters, and the fragrance lasted for a long time. The string of jasmine made by Jiang Yunlan was about to be left overnight with the sachet.

Although jasmine flowers are born beautifully, the flower shape is too small to be conspicuous on the head. Jiang Yunlan skillfully made many single jasmine flowers in her, some of them were wrapped around a large headband, and the smaller jasmine silk flowers were strung into a bead net with many broken beads and tassels hanging down from the headband.

"Yunlan said that this was for my sister-in-law, and I secretly showed it to my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law had to pretend that she didn't know anything." Gu Sixian said embarrassedly.

Jiang Xuehe said with a smile: "Since you know that Yunlan is going to give me a surprise, why do you want to take it out in advance?" ”

"Because I also want to discuss with my sister-in-law about letting Yunlan make silk flowers with me." Gu Sixian hugged Jiang Xuehe's arm and said with a smile, "Originally, I was the only one in the county who could do these things, and I also felt that I was amazing, but occasionally I needed my sister-in-law to help me draw some tricks." But I later found out that Yunlan has seen fewer flowers, and she has read several times more books related to flowers than me. And Yun Lan is also very good at drawing patterns and has a lot of ideas, so why not let Yun Lan join me? ”

Jiang Xuehe said: "After all, it's your craft, and it's also your idea......

"No, it's my craft, but it's an idea that my sister-in-law gave me." Gu Sixian said, "If I didn't have my sister-in-law, I didn't know that my craft could make money." Sister-in-law's idea, why can I use Yunlan or not, besides, I have limited ideas alone, but recently, together with Yunlan and Yuxuan, I have come up with a lot of new tricks. It's just that Yuxuan only likes to think, not to do it. ”

Jiang Xuehe smiled: "It's rare that Xuan'er is willing to learn embroidery, so let her go for the rest." ”

"I think so too, but Yunlan likes it, so let Yunlan join me." Gu Sixian said with a smile.

Jiang Xuehe smiled: "Then I have to ask Yunlan again, if she is willing, I will naturally not object." But I'll probably have to wait until she gives me this headband before I can ask. ”

Gu Sixian couldn't help but get nervous when she heard this, what if Jiang Yunlan was not confident in her craftsmanship and didn't give it away?
