Chapter 22: My Lady Is the Best
On the way, Su Xiaoman thought that he could arrive quickly, but he was afraid that he would arrive so soon, and he was very entangled.
When he was about to arrive in the city, Su Xiaoman suddenly asked: "Lu Li, you said that if my embroidery is not sold, what should I do?" β
"It's okay, then we'll take it home and use it ourselves." Lu Li took her hand and comforted her.
But even so, Su Xiaoman was still uneasy in his heart.
With such a mood, the two finally arrived at the door of Tianyi Pavilion, Su Xiaoman took a deep breath, and the excitement and nervousness on his face were obvious.
"Ouch, isn't this Miss Su? Please come in! β
Zhao Qianchuan happened to come back after collecting the accounts, and when he saw Su Xiaoman and Lu Li standing at the door, his face was about to burst into laughter, he hurriedly welcomed the two of them in, and poured good tea to entertain them.
Looking at Zhao Qianchuan, who was overjoyed, and then looking at the extra guys in the house, Lu Qian guessed a rough idea, thinking that all the embroideries of Xiaoman were sold, not only that, Xiaoman's good craftsmanship also brought many customers to the store.
It's just that Xiaoman doesn't know these yet, she stares at Zhao Qianchuan expectantly and nervously, and when the words come to her mouth, she doesn't dare to speak, for fear that she will get an answer that disappoints her.
Seeing that she didn't dare to speak, Lu Li accepted this question, and he looked at Zhao Qianchuan: "Boss Zhao, my lady's embroideryββ"
"It's all sold!" Zhao Qianchuan's eyebrows and eyes narrowed into a thin slit, "The girl's craftsmanship is good, and her mind is chic, those handkerchiefs were all sold out in half a day after I put them here!" β
"Really?!" Su Xiaoman stood up with a glint in his eyes.
As she spoke, she looked at Lu Li in surprise, and the man got up to hold her hand and praised her without hesitation: "I know that my lady is the most powerful." β
Su Xiaoman's cheeks were hot, she lowered her head embarrassedly, and whispered in disgust: "There are still others here, don't be like this." β
Although she said so, Su Xiaoman's heart was still excited, as if she was about to jump out, she squeezed Lu Li's hand tightly, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Miss Su, this is the money you sold for your embroidery, a total of one hundred and ten taels of silver, you seven and I three, this is seventy-seven taels of silver, you have collected it." Zhao Qianchuan handed over the silver ticket and some scattered silver, "Look at it, it's a lot." β
Su Xiaoman had never heard of so much money, her eyes widened, "This ...... So much? β
"Yes," Zhao Qianchuan explained, "there is a lady who likes your embroidered handkerchiefs very much, so she paid a very high price, and I also think that the girl's embroidery is worth this money, so I raised the price slightly, but I still sold them all, congratulations to the girl." β
It's just five or six handkerchiefs, and they can be sold for so much money! She was originally afraid that she would not be able to sell it, but now it seems that not only did she sell, but she also sold it for a lot of money.
Lu Li directly took the silver, wrapped it in a cloth bag and sent it to Su Xiaoman's arms, "You deserve it, come, put it away." β
Su Xiaoman looked at the cloth bag in his arms, and the flush on his cheeks did not dissipate for a long time.
"Now you are relieved, right? Will the embroidery in the future also be placed in our shop? Zhao Qianchuan smiled and asked tentatively.
Miss Su's craftsmanship is not under the lady's care, if she can let her sell embroidery in her own store for a long time, then she will definitely not be able to sell things in the future!
Su Xiaoman looked at Lu Li with a red face, as if he was waiting for the other party to give him an idea.
And Lu Li saw her intentions at a glance, and instead of helping her make the decision, he directly asked, "Do you want to continue here?" β
To tell the truth, with this incident, Su Xiaoman's confidence has increased a lot, as long as it is a good embroidery, it can naturally be sold wherever it is placed.
The first time she sold it here was Shopkeeper Zhao, she would naturally give priority here, and Shopkeeper Zhao also gave a way to share that would not be given elsewhere at all.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaoman nodded firmly, "The embroidery will definitely be placed here in the future." β
"Ouch! Thank you Miss Su for trusting us! Zhao Qianchuan was overjoyed, "Then it will still be like this, you are seven and I are three, what do you think?" β
"Okay." Su Xiaoman squeezed the bag of the cloth bag tightly and nodded obediently.
This time, the embroidery was successfully sold, and Su Xiaoman was happy like something, but he didn't forget the most important thing, that is, to buy vegetables in the shop.
Lu Li had never tinkered with this, and he didn't understand it, so he just let Su Xiaoman pick it, looking at the way the small woman bargained with the guy, his heart warmed, and the corners of his lips unconsciously hooked.
"Lu Li, I've picked it out, let's go home."
The delicate and soft female voice pulled Lu Li's thoughts back, and he leaned sideways to hold the woman's hand, "Okay, let's go home." β
Although he has been married for a while and has done more intimate things, Su Xiaoman still blushes uncontrollably for small actions such as looking at each other and holding hands.
But she definitely didn't expect that Lu Li liked and enjoyed seeing Su Xiaoman blushing very much.
After returning home, Su Xiaoman wanted to hand over the money to Lu Li for safekeeping, but the man said that she earned it and should be saved by herself.
Anyway, the two of them are going to live together in the future, and you don't have to be so clear about yours and mine.
The two hurriedly ate and began to get busy, Lu Li was busy repairing the half-finished fence wall, and Su Xiaoman was in a hurry to dig the pit and sow seeds.
Thick sticks and thin, prickly wattles were entwined around a half-man's hedge, which circled the cottage halfway up the hill, leaving a door for two men to pass side by side.
There were still some wattles left on the ground, Lu Li glanced at the vegetable garden next to the house, turned around and went to the forest again.
Su Xiaoman, who happened to get up to wipe his sweat, looked at the man's back and couldn't help but wonder, isn't this fence wall already fenced? What did he do in the woods again?
After a while, Lu Li came back and answered Su Xiaoman's doubts with practical actions.
He stood on the edge of the garden, chiseled the sticks into the ground, and then wound them with wattles to make a fence for the small garden.
Noticing Su Xiaoman's gaze, Lu Li explained: "There are many wild beasts in summer, and they come to make trouble around a fence wall. β
This is all Su Xiaoman's hard work, he can't bear to watch those little things destroy this vegetable garden.
Su Xiaoman noticed the other party's intentions, and couldn't help but bow his head and smile, Lu Li looked cold, but in fact, his mind was very delicate, so that people would always perceive warmth unconsciously.
"Boomβ"
The originally clear sky suddenly darkened, the surrounding cold wind gusted, and thunder sounded in the sky.
"Let's go to the house first, it just so happens that it will rain, so I can save water again."
Su Xiaoman put away the hoe, and after Lu Li entered the house, she wrapped the rapeseed tightly with a cloth and stuffed it under the makeup box to prevent the rapeseed from germinating from being damp.
The firewood had already been put into the firewood room, and the door in the house had already been replaced with a new one, and the door was airtight, and the two of them sat in the house, listening to the sound of the rain outside, and it was very comfortable.
This rain came fast and went faster, and the two of them were drinking tea and talking in the house, and the rain outside not only stopped, but also revealed the sun.
Su Xiaoman opened the door and took a deep breath, and suddenly felt comfortable both physically and mentally, she closed her eyes and stretched, which was very comfortable.
She wandered around to the vegetable garden next to her, looking at the rain-moistened land, and her eyes were full of anticipation that if she waited a few more days, the vegetables would sprout.
The greens can be picked and eaten at any time, radishes and cabbage can be put away in the cellar, if there is an excess, you can also make some pickles, and these garlic and green onions can be put in the firewood room and eaten slowly.
In winter, a pot of radish broth is sure to warm you up.
Lu Li looked at Su Xiaoman standing on the edge of the vegetable garden from a distance, and his eyes were doting on him that he didn't even notice.
Su Xiaoman counted with his fingers, if you want pickles, there is no suitable jar at home, so you have to go to the market to buy it......
"Xiaoman? Is Xiaoman at home? β
She followed the prestige, but saw Zhang Xiuqin at the door.
How did she get here?
Just thinking about it, Zhang Xiuqin walked over from the door with a smile, "Xiaoman, is this the vegetable garden you said?" It's pretty good, what are you going to plant? There are still leftover rapeseed at home, and if you don't have enough, just come and get it at home! β
Not to mention Lu Li, even Su Xiaoman had never seen Zhang Xiuqin like this, she stood by the fence wall, and took a step back in surprise, "Auntie, how are you-"
Zhang Xiuqin deliberately interrupted Xiao Man's words, and then began to praise indiscriminately, "Xiao Man, since you got married, this little face has become more and more rounded, and your complexion has improved a lot, you must have had a good life, right?" β
"Auntie, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly." Lu Li walked over and stood beside Xiao Man, with a cold expression.
Su Xiaoman echoed casually, "Auntie, what are you looking for me to do, let's just say it." β
This kind of Zhang Xiuqin made her strange and scared, because she couldn't guess what the other party was thinking, which made Su Xiaoman panic.
"Ouch, what can I do!" Zhang Xiuqin waved her hand, with an exaggerated expression, "I just came to see you little couple, and when I see you doing well, then I will be relieved." β
If these words came out of Su Qi's mouth, the two would believe it, but if it was Zhang Xiuqin, the two would not believe it anyway.
Lu Li looked indifferent, he quietly protected Su Xiaoman behind him, and looked at Zhang Xiuqin coldly, "Auntie, now that I've finished reading, we're doing well, can you go back?" β
"Lu Li, you young man is really ......" Zhang Xiuqin laughed dryly, seeing that the two were still unmoved, she stomped her feet and had to tell the truth: "Xiaoman, Xiaoling is also old enough to say goodbye, I heard that your craftsmanship is very good, and I want you to embroider a handkerchief for Xiaoling." β
Su Xiaoman didn't understand, what does embroidering a handkerchief have to do with kissing?
Zhang Xiuqin said again: "You should be able to embroider handkerchiefs quickly, right?" I'll pick it up tomorrow, how can you embroider it in one day, right? β
