Chapter 24 Don't make your daughter-in-law angry
It was time to retreat after setting up the stall all morning, Daddy Shen slowly cleaned up the stall, and Shen Xiaoyu led the landing butterfly to turn around again.
"These small stalls that sell food and drink usually don't close too early, unless they are all sold out, or they will wait until after lunch." Shen Xiaoyu pointed to a seller of baked cakes and said, "Their family is a time-honored brand here, and the business thief is good!" ”
Lu Butterfly looked over, and the baked cake was indeed fragrant when it looked good, so she took a copper plate and bought one, took a bite and tasted it, and then said: "I want to make it more delicious, but the cost is high." ”
After the two of them turned around, Shen Xiaoyu went directly to the city gate to find Father Shen, carried the shelf, and the three of them walked to the village.
Shen Xiaoyu went home, dealt with another meal, and then slept for a while.
In the afternoon, Shen Xiaoyu finished the flexibility of the reception, and read the book for a while.
Now that she is thirteen years old, she has not read a lot of books, and Cui Fenglan told her that the woman's books are almost enough. Although it is wrong for a woman to be virtuous if she is not talented, she will think more and be more troubled if she reads more books.
Father Shen was weaving baskets in the yard, so he asked Shen Xiaoyu, "Is the screen dry?" ”
Shen Xiaoyu remembered that there was still one to dry, so he hurried to take a look.
The paint of the screen has dried, and the color is more suitable, and it blends well with the original paint color. ”
Shen Xiaoyu is proud, and his skills are worthy of pride.
"Did you think about what you wanted to do with that piece of rosewood you got a few days ago?" Father Shen asked, Huanghuali is a good wood, and he also accidentally found it in the back mountain.
Shen Xiaoyu thought for a while and said, "Why don't you make a screen, there is not much wood, and you can't get a large one." ”
Father Shen pondered whether it was a screen, and the yellow rosewood wood could be sold anywhere.
Shen Xiaoyu went to demolish the house and took out the piece of wood, and then he figured out how big it was, holding a small stick in his hand and gesturing on the ground, and then he took the saw and got busy.
In the evening, Cui Fenglan came back, and Shen Xiaoyu saw that people were back, and happily greeted her, but Cui Fenglan's eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like she had cried.
"Auntie, what's wrong with you? Is Grandpa Cui's illness not good? Shen Xiaoyu asked with concern.
When Father Shen heard this, he also came over and said, "Fenglan, what's the matter?" ”
Cui Fenglan sat on the small bench in the courtyard and said listlessly: "I'm afraid my father's illness won't get better for a while." ”
When Father Shen heard this, he said, "Why is it bad?" ”
"Lang Zhong said that when he is old, he has to raise it." Cui Fenglan said.
Shen Xiaoyu said, "Didn't Dad say that he would take Grandpa Cui back to live?" Living together also has a care, and it also saves you from worrying about both. ”
Cui Fenglan knew her father's temper, so she said, "My father will definitely not agree, he won't let me serve there for a few days, so he will drive me back." ”
Shen Xiaoyu also knew Cui Lao Xiucai's temper, so he said: "Don't listen to him at this time, just get people back." ”
Father Shen also agreed: "That's it, bring the person back, what if he can still run away!" ”
Cui Fenglan was also afraid that her father would live alone and have three long and two short, so she said, "But how can I get it back." "The road is not close, and I am afraid that I will have to be tired of three long and two short things.
Shen Xiaoyu thought about it for a while, and said: "The butterfly family has an ox cart, I'll borrow it, our family will give some money for the car, they should be able to help!" ”
When Father Shen heard this, he said, "That's also it, you go and ask, if it's okay, we'll pick people up when we come back from the city tomorrow!" ”
Shen Xiaoyu nodded and went out of the door, going straight to Lu Butterfly's house.
Lu Butterfly's house was cooking at night, and when Shen Xiaoyu entered the door, Lu Butterfly was busy on the stove, and when she saw Shen Xiaoyu coming, she asked, "Xiaoyu?" Have you eaten it? I didn't eat a piece of it. ”
Shen Xiaoyu shook his head: "It smells so fragrant, but I won't talk about food today, I want to discuss something with your father!" ”
"My dad?" When Lu Butterfly heard this, she smiled and said, "Hey, that's not my father, my father died a long time ago, that's my uncle, you can just call Uncle An!" ”
Shen Xiaoyu was surprised, he always thought that the one he saw that day was Lu Butterfly's father! It turned out that it wasn't, but think about it, Lu Butterfly's mother is beautiful, and the two of them don't look like husband and wife.
"Actually, I want to borrow your ox cart and go to the neighboring village to pick up someone, so I'll rent it!" Shen Xiaoyu said: "Then I'll discuss it with your mother?" ”
When Lu Butterfly heard this, she said: "You don't need to look for my mother, you can just use it if you want to use it, I can call the shots!" ”
Shen Xiaoyu raised his eyebrows, but he didn't know that Lu Butterfly could call the shots!
"Are you really in charge? That's great, I'll pick it up tomorrow at noon when my family comes back from the city, I can't use your car for nothing, I'll definitely give money! Shen Xiaoyu said that cows always have to eat forage, and she has to give people some money to buy grain.
Lu Butterfly smiled and said, "I really don't need money, if you feel embarrassed, do me a favor." ”
"What's the deal?" Shen Xiaoyu asked.
Lu Butterfly pointed to the fabric on the table in the courtyard and said, "My mother and I don't know any needlework, now that the weather is hot, I want to make clothes!" ”
When Shen Xiaoyu heard this, he said: "So it's such a thing, you can find me the right one to make clothes!" "Then I went to look at the fabric.
The fabric is delicate and silky, it is a good material, Shen Xiaoyu said: "I have to take a look at the size of my aunt in your family." ”
Lu Butterfly went into the house to call someone, and Mrs. Lu came out inside.
In the past, Shen Xiaoyu thought that Lu Butterfly's mother was good-looking, but she didn't have to be like Guanyin Niangniang in the temple outside the city, but now that she looks closer, she is more feminine.
"Ahem." Mrs. Lu coughed lightly and said, "Thank you Miss Xiaoyu for sending the medicine before." ”
Shen Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Hey, my aunt's words are outside, those medicinal materials are not precious, every household in the village is also a little, and the butterfly also sent corn to my family, don't mention this matter." ”
Mrs. Lu smiled softly and said, "The two women in my family don't know how to needlework, so it's troublesome for Xiaoyu." ”
Shen Xiaoyu waved his hand: "There's no trouble, the neighbors, help each other to have a better time." As he spoke, he glanced at Mrs. Lu's figure a few times and said, "Okay, the clothes will be made in a few days." ”
Lu Butterfly looked at Shen Xiaoyu at a glance and knew the size and was also convinced: "Xiaoyu, you are too powerful!" ”
Shen Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "You are also amazing!" "The two of them are also interesting, one can't cook, and the other can't do needlework.
After saying that, Shen Xiaoyu will go home with the fabric first, and wait to pick up someone tomorrow.
Shen Xiaoyu cut all the pieces of cloth to be used for the clothes that night, and sewed the clothes while setting up the stall the next day, Cui Fenglan also helped sew, but she was a little worried about her father's temper, not to mention the ox cart to pick up people, I was afraid that I would not come here even if I carried the sedan chair.
Shen Xiaoyu was sewing clothes, and someone came to the stall, and when Shen Xiaoyu looked up, he found that he was still an acquaintance.
"It's you, or buy a handkerchief today?" Shen Xiaoyu put down the work in his hand and went to say hello.
Qin Huaijin shook his head and said, "Make me some clothes." ”
Shen Xiaoyu looked at Qin Huaijin's figure and said, "What can be done can be done, but our family doesn't produce fabrics." "The fabrics are brought by the customers themselves.
Qin Huaijin said: "I can make the fabric myself, and you can make it." ”
Shen Xiaoyu nodded: "This is easy to say!" Shen Xiaoyu asked what kind of clothes to make and how much cloth was used, and then asked: "Your family should have its own embroidery girl, where do you use our small workshops?" "Although I don't know whose young master Qin Huaijin is, every time I see Qin Huaijin, he wears very elegant clothes.
Qin Huaijin smiled and said, "I feel that you are doing a good job." ”
Shen Xiaoyu also smiled and smiled proudly: "Or the little master has vision, where does the young master's family live?" When I'm ready, I'll send it straight to the house. ”
Qin Huaijin shook his head: "You don't need to send it, I'll just pick it up myself." "Can't let the family see him and Shen Xiaoyu walking so close.
Shen Xiaoyu nodded: "That's okay, just wait for you to bring the fabric." ”
Qin Huaijin nodded, and then left, and walked to the mouth of the alley, where Fu'an was waiting.
"Young master, that's your future daughter-in-law, are you sneaking around like this?" Fu'an said that he had a lot of contact with Qin Huaijin in the past few years, and he guessed that Qin Huaijin was probably pretending to be sick.
Qin Huaijin shook his head: "No, let him know that I am the sick man, I'm afraid he will scold me to death." ”
"No, she wouldn't dare!" Fu'an said that Shen Xiaoyu was bought by his in-laws, and said that he was the future second young grandmother, but in fact, it was not much different from buying a slave.
Qin Huaijin said: "I know she doesn't dare, but I don't want her to be angry......"
Fu'an looked at Qin Huaijin with wide eyes, and was speechless: "Oh, it's really unexpected, young master, you are still a lover!" ”
Qin Huaijin hurriedly looked over: "I have a headache!" Then he leaned on Fu'an.
Fu'an: "......, young master, don't mind, it's okay if the little one is wrong?!" "Now he is not afraid of anything else, he is afraid that Qin Huaijin will pretend to be sick, and he will secretly bring people out, which will make Mrs. ask, and he must not break his dog's legs? ! In the past three years, his legs have always felt cold, and he always feels that maybe one day this leg may really be broken!
Shen Xiaoyu continued to sew clothes here, and Lu Butterfly's clothes were also made early, so don't delay making money when Qin Huaijin sends the fabric!
At noon, the family hurried home, put down their things and didn't have time to eat, so they went to Lu Butterfly's house early to pick up the ox cart.
Lu Butterfly was feeding some grass in the yard, and then asked Uncle An to put on the ox cart.
"Let Uncle An send you there, Uncle An said that the ox cart is not easy to drive." Lu Butterfly said.
Shen Xiaoyu smiled: "Thank you Butterfly!" Thank you Uncle Ann too! ”
Father Shen and Cui Fenglan didn't come empty-handed, and the melons they bought from the city were gifts, and the two families would have contacts in the future.
The ox cart went all the way out of the village, and after a bumpy ride, it finally arrived at Cui Lao Xiucai. Cui Fenglan got out of the car and went into the house, and then Cui Lao Xiucai's angry scolding came: "You hurry up!" I'm not going to you! As soon as the words fell, there was a crackling sound of smashing bowls inside.
The movement was not small, and all of a sudden it attracted all the old and young masters passing by.
