Ah Lan felt that she had hope, and originally felt that the future was uncertain, so Zeng Zigu said this, it seems that the road ahead is in front of her, as long as she doesn't affect the Zeng family, it is nothing to be a slave, she is not a slave now, but she has no way to live, as long as she can live well, it is not better than anything else?

"Sir, I am also willing to become a slave, not to mention that it is my blessing to be able to serve a good person like the old lady."

Seeing that Ah Lan agreed, and the second brother also had a way to solve the trouble, Banniang seemed to be happier than Ah Lan, shook Ah Lan's hand, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said happily: "That's it, you will be regarded as a member of our family in the future, I was reluctant to let you go, and now bad things have become good things." He turned his head and patted Zeng Zigu's sycophant, "Second brother, I know that you are the most capable." Nothing is difficult for you. ”

Zeng Zigu was funny, leaving two girls crying with joy and muttering there, talking about business with Uncle Liu.

Uncle Liu also heard Liu Erlang say that the Zeng family wanted to buy wood for furniture, and when he saw Zeng Zigu asking, he smiled and said: "This is also a coincidence, old man, I also knew a few shopkeepers of the timber shop in the past, and since it was the needs of Mr.'s family, I took out my old face to help Mr. take a look, and I have been a carpenter all my life, and I can distinguish one or two in wood, and I am not afraid of buying the wrong material at that time." ”

In fact, the choice of wood, Banniang herself is an expert, Uncle Liu can help introduce a wood line, but since Uncle Liu is willing to help, she doesn't have to come out, when the time comes, the idea will follow, lead Uncle Liu to choose the wood he likes, and save a lot of tongue at that time.

After getting the old Uncle Liu's words, it was also a matter, and Banniang took out all the patterns and handed them to Uncle Liu: "Last time, Second Brother Liu also saw it, and said that in addition to some carvings, I had to show the old man, and it was no problem to do it, but the time was tight, and it would be a few months until next spring, and it would not work hard to make paint when it was cold in winter, so I had to rush to work, and it was hard to work for the old man." ”

"This carving, I can do it with my craftsmanship, I dare not say how good it is, only the old man carved out the flowers, you can still see it," Uncle Liu looked at the pattern in his hand for a while, twisted his beard and smiled, "But these pictures of Banniang are really exquisite, I'm afraid it will take more time, it's better to do it first, and then paint it when it's warm next spring?" Speaking of lacquering, if these furniture are created, not to mention how good I and Erlang are, but as long as there are no mistakes and the wood is selected properly, these furniture are of the highest quality. However, the old man and Erlang are not good at lacquering, and it would be a pity if we were to paint it. ”

Uncle Liu shook his head as he spoke.

"This is not difficult, it just so happens that Banniang knows an old gentleman who has been doing lacquer art for generations, and his craftsmanship is rare and good, but I am afraid that Manda Song will not be able to find a few people who are better than his craftsmanship. Let's see if I can ask the old gentleman to help. Anyway, uncle, you also said that you will only make paint in Ming Chun, so you are not in a hurry. ”

Uncle Liu was relieved at this time, and he wanted to say something, but he wanted to say it and stopped.

Seeing this, Banniang asked, "What else does the old man have to say?" If it's a matter of wages, just ask, I also know that these furniture are very difficult to make, just because it is the dowry of my sixth sister, it is not good. When we came, we also asked my father and mother, and if these furniture are made, we will pay you and Second Brother Liu thirty wages. The salary is not much, but our family is like this, and we ask Uncle Liu to take care of it. ”

When Uncle Liu heard this, he said unhappily: "What did Banniang say? Although the old man and Erlang are from the village, they are not the ones who forget their righteousness for profit. Besides, it won't cost 30 yuan, Erlang is a big guy in the shop, and the work is much harder than this, and it's only two yuan a month's salary. You pay twenty times, and you will reach the sky. ”

Seeing that it was not a matter of wages, Banniang breathed a sigh of relief, and was also ashamed that she thought about the interests of everything in everything, so she apologized to Uncle Liu with a smile: "It's all Banniang's fault, don't be angry." Thirty dollars is not much, I am very clear about the pattern I painted, not to mention anything else, only these carvings are labor-intensive and time-consuming, if it is given to others, people are not willing to give us thirty dollars at all. ”

Seeing Uncle Liu's hesitant appearance, he said strangely: "What does Uncle have to say?" Is there something difficult about it? Just say yes. ”

"This, Banniang, you look like this, the old man tells the truth, if you can make it and sell it, I'm afraid that Manjiang South Road, I can't find a few woodware shops that can be compared, the old man thinks it's a pity if he keeps it."

This said, Banniang already understood that Uncle Liu was moved by this pattern, but she couldn't do it easily, this pattern, she will still be useful in the future.

However, he didn't want to disappoint Uncle Liu, after all, this old man was still very kind, and this time he helped to make this set of household goods, which can be regarded as a great help to his own family, so he smiled and said: "Uncle is so optimistic about the pattern drawn by Banniang, and Banniang is also very happy, but this pattern is not only painted for the dowry of my sixth sister, but also has some other uses in the future, or I will give it to Uncle Liu." ”

When Uncle Liu heard this, he already knew that he couldn't get this pattern, but he was originally greedy and really loved this set of family goods, so he had extravagant hopes. Now that people have said that he has other uses, he is embarrassed to be reluctant, so he smiled and said: "It's the old man, I'm greedy." ”

Banniang simply said: "Don't worry, uncle, although I keep this pattern useful, I can't give it to the uncle, but Banniang also has a reason, just say it to the uncle, you are an old man, you have more knowledge than my little girl, I said it, and the uncle treated me as his niece and daughter, and also gave me some advice." ”

After being a famous person, Uncle Liu hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't dare to be it, don't dare to be it." ”

Banniang pursed her lips and smiled, and continued: "Although Banniang is young, she loves to make some things, and she likes to use utensils very much, she usually goes to other people's houses, and she always likes to look at those household ornaments, and she once gave Liu Erge a chair pattern, and Liu Erge also took a fancy to it, made it and sold it, I heard Liu Erge say, it is very popular, and now this set of patterns, Uncle Liu also thinks it is good, in fact, Banniang has always wanted to open the woodware shop, and I feel that I have thought about so many things in my heart, so I don't have to waste it. It's just that Banniang is young and doesn't understand these, not to mention that it is not easy to find a suitable craftsman, and there is a source of wood to consider, my brothers are not often at home, and there is no one to help, so it has been dragged down. Although the old man and the second brother Liu have known each other for a short time, the character of the old man and the second brother Liu is very respectful to Banniang, so he thought about whether he could invite the old man to go out of the mountain and help Banniang, and Banniang did not say that he was hired, even if the old man and the second brother Liu had a three-percent share, they fought for money, and they shared the profits between you and the second brother Liu, and if they lost money, it would not hinder your business, what does Uncle Liu think? ”

Uncle Liu never expected that Banniang would say this, and even Zeng Zigu was surprised when he heard it, his eighth sister had never had anything to do, and she loved to discuss it with him, but she never even mentioned this major event of opening a wood, this was her temporary idea?

But seeing that what she said was Taoist, where was the temporary intention? It's been thinking about it for a long time.

It's not that I'm not unhappy, but when I think of this little girl thinking about so many things all day long, it's obviously a daughter's family, and there are more things to worry about than my brother, and I feel ashamed, distressed, and a little faintly unhappy.

This is unhappy and seems to be angry with Banniang, and it seems to be angry with yourself.

took a look at Banniang.

Banniang didn't notice her second brother's emotions at this time, and only looked at Uncle Liu.

Thirty percent of the dividend, Uncle Liu said that it was fake, but he didn't expect that Banniang would open the idea of a shop, and he was inevitably surprised that a little lady of her had the courage to open a woodware shop, and secondly, he felt that even if he and Liu Erlang helped, he would be ashamed to receive three percent of the benefits. Third, the old man didn't believe that she could really open a wooden shop with a little lady.

I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I hurriedly looked at Zeng Zigu to see what kind of attitude he had as a brother.

Seeing that Zeng Zigu had no other expression on his face, as if what Banniang said was an ordinary thing, he thought, could it be that Mr. Zeng agreed to what Banniang said about opening a shop?

It's not good not to take a stand.

"It's hard for Banniang that you look up to the old man and your second brother Liu so much, but we can't afford to be profitable, and we don't say anything else, as long as we can use it, Erlang and I want to help, Erlang is now a buddy in the shop, and it is also thanks to Banniang Your blessing, only opening a shop is not a trivial matter, Banniang still goes home and discusses with Master Zeng and his brothers."

"It's nature." Banniang smiled and glanced back at Zeng Zigu.

Zeng Zigu knew what this girl meant by looking at herself, how to say it afterwards, it was an afterthought, but now in front of her, she wanted to help Banniang round things up, so she accosted her and said to Uncle Liu: "Even if the old man is willing to help, no matter whether it works or not, the old man's heart, Zigu will thank his sister first." ”

The weight of his words is different from that of Banniang, and Uncle Liu really believes that the Zeng family has this plan.

At this time, Erlang, who was sent by Uncle Liu to buy meat at the butcher's house at the head of the village, also returned to the hospital, and Granny Liu heard that there were guests at home, so she also went home from the family.
