Chapter 281: The Salesian House
The girl nodded: "Do you want to come in?" My father and mother went out to sell tofu, and my grandmother was at home......"
"Well, there's something I want you to help with."
The girl invited Ning Yan in.
When the door was closed, he was stopped by Ning Yan.
It's done in the yard, you can still see my house from your house, there are children at home, and it's not safe to close the door and see it.
"Oh, then you sit down first, and I'll go find grandma."
"Thank you." Ning Yan smiled.
After sitting for two or three minutes, the hunched old lady walked out.
Ning Yan stuffed the brown paper in his hand into the girl's hand: "It's all neighbors, I'm here this time, please forgive me if I disturb you." ”
"Don't bother, don't bother." The old lady handed the girl the cane in her hand and sat down on the horse.
Glancing at Ning Yan, he asked, "What are you here for?" ”
The old lady curled her tongue when she spoke, and her voice was a little strange in tone.
But it's also easy to understand, the capital is the biggest place, and the people here come from different places.
It's okay to speak with a weird pronunciation, as long as you can understand it.
"I'd like to ask you to help make some clothes for the baby, bedding and diapers."
"Yes, that is, the cloth ...... needed"
"I'll buy it." Ning Yan said again.
"Nacheng, let Chunlu help you, she is very good at needlework."
"......" spring dew?
Ning Yan's gaze fell on the girl, and the old man's gaze fell on her when he spoke, so the girl was Chunlu.
Teenagers, that's what they're going to do.
"Yes, I'll go home and get it."
After Ning Yan finished saying hello to the old lady, he walked home.
There are some leftover fabrics used by Wu Youniang in the yard here, which are not good or bad.
The colors are not bright, and they are not pleasant to the touch.
There is no way, cotton has not yet been promoted, and the cloth at this time is linen in addition to the precious varieties of silk.
The texture of linen is almost the same as that of cotton.
Wu Youniang is just a maid now, and she is also particular about what she wears.
At this time, there were only some linen cloths in the small courtyard.
Fine linen cloth is better than burlap cloth, and the close-fitting effect is also better.
Ning Yan smoked a fine linen cloth and walked to Du's house.
Children's skin is more delicate, but in this era of unclothed clothes, it is no longer delicate or delicate.
"Is this okay?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Du Chunlu nodded.
A whole piece of cloth......
Sure enough, grandma was right, the family on the other side was a family property.
Whoever makes new cloth for their children's clothes is left over from adults.
Three years for the new and three years for the old, and three years for sewing and mending
Year after year, it's like this.
The family on the other side uses new cloth to make clothes for a child, so you have to build a good relationship.
"I won't let you help in vain this time, if you get paid, ......"
"No, no, no, we're all neighbors, the eldest lady feels sorry for it, so give me the leftovers for making clothes!"
"Hmm!" Ning Yan nodded.
Fortunately, I had just crossed the meeting and lived a few poor days, so I naturally knew that a piece of cloth was also very precious.
Ning Yan sat in the courtyard for a while, and then walked to his own courtyard opposite.
Without Grandma Huo, Ning Yan's host naturally didn't need to prepare food for Wu Youniang and the two of them with their own hands.
But you can't let someone who has a busy day cook for her.
Although the subordinate should have cooked for the master's house.
However, Ning Yan couldn't do this kind of thing.
And she's not been here for long, so she'll fall for a while.
I found the nearest restaurant, set a price with someone, and these days the restaurant people will deliver food to the courtyard.
After booking, I walked around the neighborhood.
It's getting late.
When Wu Youniang came back at night, she naturally found that Grandma Huo had left.
Wu Youniang's eyes were still a little lonely.
Young people can't stand parting the most.
Not long after Wu Youniang came back, there was a knock on the door outside, and she went out to see the person dressed as Xiao Er with a food box.
Look back at Ning Yan.
Ning Yan nodded.
Wu Youniang brought the food box to the dining room.
Place the food in the food box on the table......
"Big lady, you broke the bank, the slave can come back to cook."
"It's okay, by the way, the milk needed to make the cake must be fresh, and there is ......"
Ning Yan was long-winded for a while, and said what he had said to Wu Youniang several times.
Businessmen are profitable.
What can't be done?
Ning Yan didn't want to become the kind of person who ate human blood steamed buns.
I don't want Wu Youniang to become like that.
"Don't worry, the eldest lady, with my supervision, nothing will happen."
"Let you remember, remember, what does it mean if something happens, could it be that you have used expired milk?"
After Ning Yan finished speaking, his face became more and more serious.
Wu Youniang was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Big lady, it's okay to leave it for a day, and you can save costs." ”
“…… What else was Ning Yan going to say? ”
Wu Youniang said again: "Big lady, it would be a pity if it was only for one day, you must know that more people have no food to eat, we are so wasteful, it's not good!" ”
"......" Ning Yan paused.
She seemed to be mistaken about something.
Just like Wu Youniang said, more people in this era can't even eat anything, and some of them are good to eat, if you pick and choose......
Forehead!
Sanguan was hit hard.
Do you want high-quality milk in the future? Don't make sure the milk is fresh.
After thinking for a while, Ning Yan said: "In this case, the overnight milk will be made into milk bread, and it will be sold cheaply, and the money from the sale will be listed separately, and a Salesian House will be built, and some women will be recruited to bring the unsupported beggars inside." ”
"......" Wu Youniang opened her mouth wide when she heard this.
Ning Yan herself was helpless, she seemed to be getting more and more Mary Sue.
It's just that......
As a normal person, watching the beggar fight for a bite to eat.
Only Lan Xiang lowered her head.
Seeing this, Ning Yan asked, "Do you have something to say?" ”
"Big lady......" Lan Xiang pursed her lips, and when she looked at Shang Ningyan's eyes, she was afraid.
Being so scared, Ning Yan was also angry: "Say it! ”
"Big lady, the slave maid also lived a life of begging, at that time I really hope that someone can be merciful, as long as you give some food every day, do anything."
"...... "That's still going on at the beginning."
"Big lady, the slave maid thinks that what you have done is a great deed, if you really open a Salesian home, the slave maid is willing to go over and help."
"What do you think, you just stay in Ning Ji honestly."
Before Ning Yan could speak, Wu Youniang spoke.
During this time, she and Lan Xiang have experienced too many things together, and the two can be regarded as sharing joys and sorrows.
Hearing that Lan Xiang didn't want to do it in Ning Ji, she became angry in an instant.
After speaking, I suddenly thought that there was another person here...... There is also a master.
Bow your head and say nothing.
Lan Xiang glanced at Wu Youniang and then at Ning Yan.
Biting her lip, she continued: "Big lady, your idea is very good, in fact, many people just need to pull it up, pull it up...... Life can just turn a corner. ”
"Hmm!" Ning Yan nodded, and finally felt that Lan Xiang was like a person, at least with human feelings.
Wu Youniang still disagreed: "Big lady, think about it, if you really want to open this Salesian Hospital, the slaves and maids will not really stop it, it is to feed a group of people for nothing, and the cost is too big!" ”
"Don't worry, those beggars can't eat for nothing, we don't want to get something for nothing, you think about the ...... that sell chestnuts in Tong County"
"......" Wu Youniang nodded.
The eldest lady has already made up her mind.
She said that no amount of more would work.
And...... The beggar who sells chestnuts in Tongxian County also makes a lot of money, and it seems that this thing is not a loss. "Alright then, the slave will go buy a yard another day."
"Hmm!" Ning Yan rubbed his forehead, it is not easy to be a cold-hearted person these days: "Go for it, pick people, you have done a good job." ”
After Ning Yan finished speaking, he began to be a shopkeeper again.
The things that run around are all Wu Youniang's.
Wu Youniang continued to pull the rice into her mouth, and after swallowing it: "Big lady, what did those beggars do when they first started, did they also send cakes?" ”
"Nope." Tongxian is different from the capital.
There is a lot of chaos in the capital, and it is not possible to send food, and if something goes wrong on the road, who offends the buyer, it is not good to be responsible.
They are small and have little strength, so what can these children do?
It's hard to go to the streets and alleys to sell flowers.
Selling matches?
I don't think I can even earn back what I eat.
If the older children are willing to take the children and help reduce the work of our employers, you can replace the chaff nest with gray steamed buns, if you do well, change from gray steamed buns to white steamed buns, and you can exchange them for what you want according to a certain amount.
If nothing is done, get out.
We don't feed those who steal and cheat. ”
"That's good." Lan Xiang took a bite of the bun and nodded.
It is not easy for people who do not have enough to eat to have chaff nests.
"Also, the bread made of the young lady's milk that has been left for two days can be sold by these people, just as they sell chestnuts, and this will surely increase your workload.
It's better to build a small workshop and let the beggars make bread, how do you say ......"
"Big lady, do you want to give the bread to the beggar?"
"Well, if you are reluctant, let's change the way, anyway, if you want to make money, use your brain!"
"......" Wu Youniang's eyes were a little more indescribable.
Is money really that easy to earn?
If it weren't for the way to make cakes in their hands, there would be no bones left to be eaten when they first came to the capital.
"Okay, big lady, I'll think about it this way."
"Hmm!"
Ning Yan wanted to say something.
The baby he had picked up from the beggar suddenly began to cry.
Ning Yan glanced at the baby who had changed into new clothes, and suddenly found that he hadn't given a name yet: "What's your name?" ”
"......" Wu Youniang also looked over.
The eldest lady is also kind-hearted.
If you see a child, you will pick it up
Later......
Wu Youniang was a little worried at this time, the matter at this time was no longer to pick up one or two beggars.
Ning Niangzi seems to be going to support all the little beggars in the capital.
