Chapter 141: Orientation

Originally, the family had a big expense every year, and there were new clothes for the top and bottom, as well as new utensils and decorations for gold and silver bills to be added to the house, which added up to about five or six hundred taels. But this year, Mo Li only spent less than 200 taels on this item at home, except for adding new clothes to the big guys, everything else can be saved.

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Mo Li was calculating the accounts of the year, and after giving the guys dividends in the afternoon, Yunshang Pavilion should be closed to prepare for the New Year. Although it is a year, it is actually just over three months, and I haven't really earned any money yet. She used all the previous sums to pave the way for the future, and although the business in the store in the past few months was very good, in fact, most of the profits had to be sent to Master Mo Er. Mo Li calculated, at least after May next year, she can really make money. But as long as this momentum continues, this little bit of time is nothing, and money needs to flow to live. And at the end of spring next year, the light yarn will be hot, and now the price of yarn is beginning to fall, she just needs to see the opportunity......

"Girl, this is the longevity lock sent by Li Yue'er, and there is a jacket robe." Just as he was thinking about it, Red Bean walked in with a package.

Mo Li raised her head, stunned, and then took the package and opened it, then shook her head and smiled: "She really has a heart, she will send things here at two ends in three days, and the little stone is about to catch up with the little boy of the big family." ”

"Shall I send it to the little stone?" No mistakes, no word skipping.

Mo Li thought about it for a while, and said, "Send it, it's almost the New Year after all, it's good to add a few more new clothes." ”

After Hongdou responded, she was about to turn around and go out, but Mo Li stopped her again and asked in a low voice: "Li Yue'er, didn't you say that Xiaoshi meant to stay?" ”

"I asked, but she didn't have much time to come out, so she didn't say much to me." Hongdou thought about it, then walked to Mo Li's side and whispered, "By the way, the girl doesn't know yet, Uncle Gu and Xiaoshi are quite in love, I also heard Ah Shengdao yesterday, it seems that after Uncle Gu knew that Xiaoshi had nowhere to go, he wanted to accept Xiaoshi as his adopted son." ”

"Adopted son?" Mo Li was stunned, just groaned for a while, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Gu Jing had a son in his later years, but he didn't think that he would get sick and die when he was ten years old, and since then this matter has become a scar in the hearts of the two old men, and no one dares to mention it in front of him on weekdays. And now that Xiaoshi has come, and he is about that age, he is very likable, and the child's background is bleak, it is not difficult to understand that Gu Jing has this thought.

"Girl?" Seeing that Mo Li didn't speak for a long time, Hongdou said, "Does the girl think this is feasible?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Mo Li came back to his senses and asked, "Did Uncle Gu tell Xiao Shi about this?" What does a small stone mean? ”

"It seems that he has mentioned it, Xiao Shi seems to be very happy, but he may still want to see whether his sister likes it or not." Hongdou said again, "In the morning, Uncle Gu said that he would come over to tell the girl about this, but the store was busy, so he put it on hold again." ”

"This is also a good thing, Li Yue'er shouldn't object, but Uncle Gu, if he knew that Li Xiaoshi's sister was in Changchun Courtyard......" Mo Li sighed, "You go first, I'll tell Uncle Gu in a while, if it's decided here, you can ask Ah Sheng to send a message to Li Yue'er." ”

Hongdou nodded, picked up the package, and then asked, "So, the girl planned to leave the little stone?" ”

"She has been in that place for a long time, and she has seen too much of men's dirty things, and she is probably reluctant to push her younger brother into such an environment. Especially the child was born with such a look, plus he was helpless, and the master said a word, or received or sold or sent or sent, which is still up to his own choice. Mo Li shook his head and smiled as he spoke, "Now it is great to have a good family willing to take it in, and with a good name, there is hope." ”

In the afternoon, after Mo Li gave the guys in the store a bonus, he had a private conversation with Gu Jing. Gu Jing was really a little surprised, so he thought about it before saying: "So that's the case, so I said, Xiaoshi himself doesn't know that his sister is ......."

Mo Li nodded: "In my opinion, Li Yue'er should want to keep it hidden, so if Uncle Gu really likes that child, I think Uncle Gu should try to hide it, at least for a few years." And if there is a case that let him know in advance, Uncle Gu will also have to pay attention. ”

"It's all pitiful...... Gu Jing sighed, then nodded, "Thank you girl, I'll go back and talk to my mother-in-law first." ”

Mo Li's heart was slightly gloomy, and he just followed Gu Jing and said again: "But at the earliest, I can only wait until the year to change his nationality after the year, and this will not be a bad thing for the yamen." ”

Mo Li was stunned for a while, and then said, "Uncle Gu, this is it, it's decided?" ”

Gu Jing smiled: "Girl, I am a person with no ability, just a little bit of good luck, I met the old lady back then, and then followed the master, and now I follow you, girl." For more than 30 years, I have followed three owners, and each of them has trusted me. Since the death of my lord, I often think about the past, think about the present, and then realize that in fact, most of my life has been much smoother than many people, and this is because I regretted the fate of meeting the old lady back then. When Gu Jing said this, he sighed softly, and continued, "The older a person gets, the more he knows the importance of this fate. ”

Mo Li was stunned, and Gu Jing felt that he had talked too much, so he smiled and said: "This person likes to be verbose when he is old, I am nagging with the girl today, hehe, the girl thinks I'm annoying." ”

"No, Uncle Gu's words make a lot of sense." Mo Li smiled.

……

After Uncle Gu went out, Mo Li asked Hongdou to call Ah Sheng over, and she gave him another bonus privately.

After a while, the curtain was opened, Mo Li raised his eyes, and saw Ah Shengda, who was wearing a gray leather jacket and shoulders, with a cowhide belt around his waist, and was still dressed simply and neatly, strode in.

"You're really not going to go home this year?" Mo Li put his share of the dividend on the table, pushed it in front of him, and asked with a smile.

"Hmm." Ah Sheng picked up the silver envelope, and without opening it to see how much it contained, he put it directly in his arms.

"Then this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, are you and Xiaoshi going to eat with Uncle Gu's family?" Mo Li looked at him, and then asked again. When Mo Liujin was there before, on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Mo Liujin called him over to eat Chinese New Year's Eve. And every year, after Mo Liujin accompanied Mrs. Mo and others to eat, he also spent a small table to continue drinking with him.

But now, Mo Liujin is gone, there are women left in the family, and he is no longer suitable for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

"Yes, I've been eating at Uncle Gu's for the past two days, and I'll have a good time." Ah Sheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, girl, I can't be cold, Jia Hei also said let me go to his family for Chinese New Year's Eve." ”

"That's fine." Mo Li smiled reassuringly, and then said, "Next year will be busier than this year, after the Lantern Festival, I plan to go to Nanxian County to take a look at the silkworm market, by the way, Dongzhuang Mulberry Garden, is there any special movement recently?" ”

Ah Sheng shook his head: "I went to see it once half a month ago, and the old man didn't say anything special, but Master Mo went there more often, and nothing else has changed." ”

"Yes......" Mo Li thought about it, then nodded, "I know, let's talk about it in the next year." ”

Ah Sheng glanced at her, paused, and said, "I'll help you watch it, don't worry too much, the days are still long, there's nothing you can't get by." ”

Mo Li was slightly stunned, and then smiled faintly.

……

The moment the bell rang on Chinese New Year's Eve, Xue'er couldn't wait to open her mouth to bite a chubby dumpling, but she was immediately burned to loosen her mouth, and the dumpling fell back into the bowl at once, causing the soup to splash all over her chin and clothes. She immediately stuck out her tongue and blew, then grinned embarrassedly at Zhu and Mo Li and smirked.

Old Mrs. Mo smiled and said that she was in a hurry, she was burned.

Mo Li took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth while saying, "After this year, I will be a year older, and I should go to school soon, I can't be so anxious about eating in the future, otherwise I will make other people's little girls laugh." ”

Mo Xue was stunned: "Sister is going to send me to the school?" ”

The old lady of the Zhu family on the side was also a little surprised, and after Mo Li wiped Mo Xue clean, she explained with a smile: "I heard that the gentleman in the Xie family's private school is very knowledgeable, and he happens to be the husband of Master Yuan of Baihuayuan, and I have met him several times. I also heard that this Mr. Qiao was the prince and young master back then, even in the court, he was also a very famous person. ”

Zhu was surprised: "Lili, you mean that you want to send Xue'er to the Xie family's private school?" ”

"Although there is also a private school in our Mo family, I have also inquired about what it looks like, not to mention that my daughter's house can't go in, even if the boy sends it in, I'm afraid I won't be able to learn anything good." Mo Li added two fat dumplings to the Zhu family, and continued, "The Xie family's private school is different, and even the girls have to be taught well, and girls under the age of twelve can be sent in." And I also inquired, in addition to the children of the Xie family, there are some relatives with the Xie Mansion, if you have this heart, you just need to say hello to the steward in the house, and the people will answer, and then send a bundle to Mr. ”

Mrs. Mo immediately asked, "Then you said it earlier?" ”

Mo Li nodded: "It's not something I said earlier, it was when I gave Mrs. Xie a New Year's gift a few days ago, I just tried to mention it, I didn't think that her old man was very happy, and said that she must let Xue'er go over, saying that the girl's family knows a few more words only good and not bad, and also said that you can eat directly at her at noon." ”

Zhu was a little apprehensive: "But, in that kind of place, Xue'er ......"

"Mother, I don't have much time to teach Xue'er anymore, and there is no man at home, so we have to learn more things."
