Because the Chen family and the Qin family both wanted her to go in person, so the gift was not asked to be sent in September, Banniang asked the Wu family again, how the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts were given, so she carefully selected one, and brought back a few things, and waited for the coachman to send things back, and went to visit the Chen family.

The Chen family moved over because it was from the north, although it was the ancestral home, but there were not many relatives and friends, so the festival was not busy, the Chen family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law heard that Banniang was visiting, so they asked someone to invite them over, because they were from the north, they saw the gift given by Banniang, and they also felt that it was novel and interesting, and they were very happy, especially the silk of the thorn tree, compared with the lantern brocade in the most famous Shu brocade and the cloud brocade of Jiangning Mansion, it was not bad, Mrs. Chen and Chen Shao's grandmother were even broken.

Banniang said with a smile: "Because I went to a foreign place before, I looked like it, and I thought that Mrs. and the young grandmother would probably like it too, so I brought some back, in fact, there are some cotton and linen materials produced in Fanbang, but I am afraid that I will not be able to enter the eyes of Mrs. and young grandmother, so I didn't take it out to offer ugliness." ”

Speaking of the Chen family's new house layout, it was just past noon, and the time was very early, although their family was newly moved, there were a few old relatives who needed to socialize, and Chen Shao's grandmother had always acted steadily, so Mrs. Chen called Chen Shao's grandmother to accompany Banniang to the new house to have a look.

Strictly speaking, the Chen family is her first real customer, and Banniang is full of energy to do things beautifully. Therefore, the preparation is also very sufficient, and when the Chen family arrives at the new house in a secluded place in the north of the city, Chen Da Shao's grandmother led Banniang to the Sanjin Courtyard of the main courtyard, and looked at two cross-hospitals, and said which people live in the hospital one by one, and also made a brief introduction to the population of the family, and the general preferences of several girls in the family, as well as the age and personality of several uncles, all of which were briefly said.

Banniang also asked a few words, and she had a good idea in her heart.

I heard Chen Da Shao's grandmother smile and said: "This house is going to live for a long time in the future, our family population is not complicated, and now it can only be roughly rectified, if there is a difference, it will be made up later, no matter what else, there is an old lady in our family, and when this house is added, it will be taken back, and the rooms of my parents-in-law and several sisters-in-law should be more particular, and the others will be almost done." ”

Said the budget of 5,000 guan again, Banniang probably calculated, the money spent by the Chen family in this house, probably only spent 5,000 guan, in terms of area, it is twice as large as the yard of his own house, and it is newly built, there is a good back garden in the backyard, looking at the posture of the Chen family, the new house, is also on the heart, I am afraid that it is really going to live for a long time, the house cost 5,000 guan, and the furniture also cost 5,000 guan, which is really a lot, but this calculation in my heart, I feel that 5,000 guan wants to include everything in each main room. The money is a bit tight.

I heard Chen Da Shao's grandmother smile and said: "I also know that your Sheraton's home is not better than other places, and the price is naturally more expensive, but in the end, we order more, and Miss Zeng Ba will also give some discounts, and in my house, the old lady and Mrs. 's house, the large ones are used less, they are all ready-made, only decorated, so I simply ask Miss Zeng Ba to help bother, and the other young ladies have to make a new set." ”

If you pay more attention to the other items except for the large items in the main house of these three people, the money will be more generous.

Banniang smiled: "There is no need for the young grandmother to say, and the price will not be bullied by the young grandmother." Since the three main houses have few large items to use, I am sure that I will have five thousand dollars, and the wood will be used by you with the best ones. As for the specific price, we have to wait for the pattern and wood to be calculated, and then calculate it for the young grandmother, only the young grandmother can rest assured that the budget will not exceed 5,000 yuan. ”

While talking, she took her self-made measuring ruler, asked the maid next to Grandma Chen to help, marked the size of each room, and wrote down who lives, approximate needs, etc., Grandma Chen saw that she was so serious, and she was also very relieved, thinking about the matter of adding household goods to her home, it could be regarded as finding the right person.

After being so busy, it got dark. Banniang should collect the information, also collected almost, out of the door of the new house, to Chen Da Shao's grandmother said: "Ming'er is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is inconvenient to go to the house to disturb, wait for me to draw out the drawings of each room, and then ask the young grandmother and Mrs. Chen to look at it, and wait for the two to be satisfied, and then set the timber matter, and then calculate the price, if the two can accept it, this can be started." ”

Chen Da Shao's grandmother saw that she was doing everything properly, according to the reasonable arrangement, naturally smiled, the two returned to the courtyard of the Chen family's temporary residence together, Chen Da Shao's grandmother saw that she was busy for a long time, very a little unhappy, so she left Banniang to eat at Chen's house, Banniang smiled and said that there were many things at home, and refused once, so she said goodbye to Chen Da Shao's grandmother, got into her own carriage, and when she returned home, it was time for dinner.

The family had dinner, chatted a few words, and knew that the festival gifts had been delivered, and Wu said that Mr. Chen went out to play because Master Zeng was not at home, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was not at home, so the adult man in the family was only Zijing, and Wu explained that Zijing went to visit his relatives the next day. And the cleaning of the house is not a day or two can be good, just wait for the festival to slowly clean up, said the same thing, then dispersed.

Banniang called July to help take care of Xiao Shi to sleep, and when Xiao Shi was done, let the two girls sit there to read and learn words, and slowly prepared paper, pen, paint, etc., and went to prepare the drawings of the Chen family's new house.

In order to look more intuitive, Banniang simply drew them one by one according to the method of plane renderings. In such a night, only two pictures were drawn, and if all the houses in the Chen family's house that needed to be purchased were sorted out, I was afraid that it would not be complete in six or seven days.

Drawing the pattern of the Chen family, thinking of my grandmother's body, if it is really not good, the restaurant is nothing, but the woodware shop is not possible without her, although now I can't catch up with the remedy, I can also think of ideas. I thought that if I would follow this pattern, draw a set of plane renderings, take them to the shop for customers to choose, and then cultivate good students in July and September, I would probably be able to do some things.

After thinking about it so deeply, I feel more and more that this method is feasible, but unfortunately the shop is too small, otherwise it will be easier to make more model rooms.

Just thinking about it, I saw Ah Lan return to the hospital.

Because it is a festival, the restaurant is very busy, Ah Lan has been late to come back these days, and when he was admitted to the hospital, the lights in Banniang's house were bright, and he knew that people had not slept yet, and then pushed the door to see, July and September were sitting there to write and write, reading books, Banniang was also sitting in front of the desk and drawing something, and there was no sound in the house.

Because he heard the sound of Ah Lan pushing the door, September was cautious, came back to his senses first, hurriedly lost the pen in his hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Ah Lan, are you back?" ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward to let Ah Lan into the house, and July over there also lost the book in his hand, so he remembered that he had just read it all night, and couldn't help but look at Banniang's table, but saw that the tea was already cold.

Although Ah Lan is younger than her and September, but not to mention May, among the several people, Ah Lan has been in the Zeng family for the longest time, and it is also the most used by Ba Niang, July couldn't help but look at Ah Lan with a little weakness, and said busily: "I'll go make some tea for Miss Ba." ”

Ah Lan looked at Banniang sitting there alone, and even the tea was cold, so he felt that July and September were derelict in their duties, and seeing that July was weak-hearted, it was not easy to say anything. September will also come to his senses, and he is a little ashamed in his heart, thinking that he still doesn't have Ah Lan's heart, so he said that he would help Ah Lan prepare hot water for washing.

Ah Lan smiled: "I'm not tired, let's go with Sister September." ”

She has been busy in the shop all day, how can she not be tired? If it was in the past, September would have stopped it, but at this time, he knew that Ah Lan had something to say to her, so he smiled and said, "Nacheng, Ah Lan, let's go together." ”

After going out, I went outside to scoop up some hot water on the stove, and Ah Lan said in a low voice: "Sister September, you don't know, Miss Eight was not in good health in the past, and she didn't sleep so late today, if Mrs. and Grandma knew about it, it would definitely be distressing, you two often follow Miss Eight, you should pay more attention in the future, like today, you should persuade more." Even if you are busy and have to do things at night, you should remember to prepare some hot tea and snacks for Miss Eight. What's more, she has only been back for a day, how can she not be tired after being away for so many days? ”

In September, I was very ashamed to be taught such a lesson by a girl who was younger than myself, but I was also convinced that Ah Lan acted properly and thoughtfully.

Seeing that she was persuaded and looked very sincere, Ah Lan was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't take it to heart, I also see that Miss Eight treats you and Sister July well, and has the heart to reuse you, so I can't help but say a word or two, sister, don't blame me." ”

"How so? I know that you are for our good, so I kindly reminded us. ”

The two talked, prepared hot water, Ah Lan went to wash, and in September, he was busy returning to the house to serve Banniang.

The next day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Banniang did not go to the shop with July and September, only stayed at home to help the Wu family take care of Xiao Shi and Xiao Shi two girls, although the elders in the family are not there, but there are a lot of relatives to come and go, Wu is naturally very busy.

The sun was very good on this day, Xiao Shi teased Xiao Shi to play in the house, Banniang drew drawings in a row, and remembered that last year he also said that today's home should also be set up on Ao Mountain, full of colorful lanterns, so that the neighbors who have followed are also good to watch, but I didn't expect that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival was so quiet.

Just as I was thinking about something, I heard a report from May that someone had sent a letter and a gift.
