Chapter 306: She's Cotton Clothes

(I went out today to deal with all the chores.,But I'm going to owe another chapter.,Tomorrow will start to resume normal updates.,Start to make up for it slowly.。 )

Xu Ma and the two immediately responded in unison, but they refused to ask for the two percent of the hands, only said that they should make more efforts to save for the unborn nephews and nieces, and also save merit, Rui Xue and his wife naturally disagreed, and finally said that they took a step back, and agreed on a percent of the hands, Zhao Fengnian personally went to the account room to get two hundred and fifty taels of silver tickets back, Rui Xue listened to this number is really stupid, so he asked Caiyun to go back to the room to take eighteen taels of silver, and only after making up enough smooth and sending the number is satisfied.

Zhao Fengnian has always been a daughter-in-law, so he has no objection, and of course Xu Ma and the others will not care about buying more than eighteen taels of silver, so none of the three of them asked why they had to add a fraction, but let Rui Xue prepare a belly of words.

Xu Ma and the two took over the big business, they were overjoyed, and they didn't even want to stay for lunch, so they wanted to rush back to the dock to tell the brothers the good news, Rui Xue called Yun Xiaoliu to help move out the prepared white rice, and said with a smile, "Two brothers, this is the new rice that the family just took back yesterday, it is very fresh, tomorrow morning the carriage will go to the village to deliver tofu, so I will give this white rice to the two brothers to bring home, and let the sister-in-law and the children taste it." ”

Xu Kuan and Ma Lao Liu both waved their hands vigorously, refusing to ask for it, they had always had to eat in the Zhao family, and they felt that they didn't have much in return, how could they ask for this new rice again, besides, the Zhao family was generous, and the bag was full of twenty or thirty catties at a glance, this gift was too heavy.

Rui Xue sent them off with sincerity, and they were not allowed to refuse, so they sent them out with a smile, Xu Ma and the two were helpless and grateful, thanked and thanked, and then turned back to the dock.

In this way, three or four days passed, and the grain outside the village began to be harvested, and every household went out early and returned late, throwing themselves into the field, for fear of falling an ear of grain, and wasting a year's hard work.

Zhao Fengnian only left two or three people with more brothers in the workshop, barely making the tofu needed by the restaurant in the city every day, and the rest of the people were put back to help the family collect the land.

When Mr. Yan came over after dinner to gossip, he mentioned that he would give the children a three-day autumn harvest holiday, so that they could help the family do some odd jobs and take care of their younger siblings by the way.

Zhao Fengnian naturally agreed, so the schoolchildren dispersed, and Mr. Yan also took the bag of white rice given to Mr. Wei by the way, and went to the city to visit friends.

Wei Xiucai has only needed to go out of the city once every five days since he took over the position of the Zhao family's west seat, and there is also a carriage to pick him up, and every time he has snacks and good dishes to bring back, if it is a festival, someone will come to the door early to send a festival gift, although it is mostly for food, but it also makes the mother and son extremely happy and grateful.

A few days ago, something happened to the lady of the Zhao family, Wei Xiucai was told that the class was suspended for a few days, and the old lady of the Wei family was still burning incense at home to beg for the blessing of the gods and Buddhas, and now everything is back to the same state, she is more and more happy.

On this day, the old lady was taking advantage of the light of the sun, carefully sewing the small padded jacket on her hand, and only after a while did she bite off the silk thread, and smiled at her son who was sitting in front of the window reading, "Son, let's see how my mother's work is?" ”

When Wei Xiucai heard this, he got up and came over, smiled and held it in his hand to take a look, the corners and cuffs of the clothes were embroidered with butterflies as if they were about to fly, vividly, and praised, "Mother's craftsmanship, I dare not say that I am the first in the world, but it is also the first in our Lingfeng City." ”

When Mrs. Wei heard her son's praise, she was happy in her heart, but she said with disgust, "You, you will make your mother happy." However, this job has to be sent to the Zhao family, and people can't laugh at the mother's poor craftsmanship. ”

Wei Xiucai was about to speak, but he heard someone knocking on the door outside the courtyard gate, he went to open the door, saw that it was Mr. Yan, and welcomed him in with a smile.

Mr. Yan said with a smile, "The main family has collected rice from outside the village in the past few days, and today I heard that I entered the city and specially asked me to bring some to Mr. Wei." The village children were busy with the autumn harvest at home, and Mr. Zhao gave the private school a three-day holiday, so Mr. Wei's class tomorrow was postponed. ”

Wei Xiucai hurriedly got up and saluted in the direction of Yunjia Village, and then thanked Mr. Yan, who had always liked his humility and humility, so he said, "If Mr. Wei keeps his heart like this and works hard in his studies, he will definitely have a bright future." ”

Wei Xiucai didn't know why he praised him, and said a few more modest words, and Mr. Yan didn't stay long, got up and left.

When the neighbors on the left and right of the Wei family saw the carriage coming out of the alley, they all gathered in front of the door and asked with a smile, "Old sister-in-law, Mr. Xiucai's main family, and there is good food to be delivered?" ”

Old Lady Wei smiled and pointed to the rice bag in the middle of the ground, and said with a smile, "The main family has collected new rice and divided some for us to try." ”

Aunt Xu, the neighbor on the left, smacked her mouth enviously and said, "I have a stone mortar at home, and my sister-in-law can open her mouth if she wants to use it." ”

Old Mrs. Wei smiled even more happily, "The main family treats people carefully, and this rice is all sent by the good family." ”

Everyone was in praise again, and the mother and son of the Wei family closed the courtyard door with a polite word, and happily washed rice and steamed rice.

Shan said, Xu Kuan and Ma Lao Liu brought three gang brothers, on the day of the sale, on the dock took a boat along the way to Qinglin, it happened that there was a shop clearance, all the old cotton and good cotton cloth in the warehouse, compared with the market price has dropped a lot, and one percent lower, the two were overjoyed, and the shopkeeper discussed, directly Bao Yuaner bought, the shopkeeper was eager to enter the new cotton, and was naturally happy to clean up the old goods at one time, so they dropped ten taels of silver.

The two of them didn't even eat a bite of food, so they immediately hired a boat to transport it back to Lingfeng City, and the docks were full of brothers, who shouted and moved down directly.

Zhang's sister-in-law personally returned to the village to report the news, and Zhao Fengnian sent the family's carriage to the wharf and transported back thousands of catties of cotton and more than 200 pieces of cotton cloth. The main room in the backyard of the third entrance was filled with rice, and the remaining wings on both sides were stuffed to the brim this time.

Yun Xiaoliu is a clever person, and seeing that Xu Kuan and the others still have to hire a carriage to transport it to the rented warehouse in the city, he took Yun Xiaojiu and Qian Heitan and made two more trips to help him.

At one time, the news that the Zhao family wanted to make merit and give up cotton clothes spread throughout the village, and after the two acres of grain were harvested, the skin was peeled and piled up in the yard to dry, and they could not return to the warehouse immediately.

Rui Xue also felt a headache when she picked it up, so she was naturally happy that they were coming, so when she entered the courtyard, she immediately squeezed dozens of women, opened the whole cotton cloth with a smile, pulled it in half, wrapped five catties of cotton respectively, tied a knot and put it aside.

So busy until the sun goes down, and only half of the busy, sister-in-law Zhang has been baking baked cakes with Caiyun Caiyue, and when she saw that everyone came out of the backyard to go home, she went into the house to call Ruixue, Ruixue came out and stopped everyone and smiled, "Sisters-in-law have worked hard, it will be dark soon, there is work at home, sister-in-law will not leave you to eat, but you can't let the sisters-in-law go back empty-handed, it just so happens that a lot of baked cakes are baked at home, and the sisters-in-law take a few, and pad their stomachs on the road." ”

Everyone waved their hands and refused, one of the older Aunt Liu, with her hands folded, chanted "Amitabha", and said with a smile, "The proprietress gives up the padded jacket, this is a great good deed, we help to do some small work, but also follow the light, get some merits, how to ask the proprietress to eat, everyone is not here to come." ”

Rui Xue smiled, "Auntie, everyone has been busy for half a day, the gods and Buddhas are all in their eyes, and the good fortune must be recorded in the book of good deeds, and it can't be written off just because I ate a few baked cakes in my house, besides, these baked cakes are all made, and the aunts don't help eat a few, in case the mold is spoiled, but the food is wasted, the gods may want to record me in the account book of evil deeds, and the aunts will save me." ”

What she said was funny, and everyone laughed and said, "The boss lady is such a wonderful person!" ”

There is an old woman who has not married a daughter-in-law in the family, seeing the Zhao family entering the big yard three times, this thriving family business, acting exquisitely, and smiling women, I regret it in my heart, how did I match such a good woman to Mr. Zhao in the first place, if she had known today, she would have robbed people and snatched them home. It's a pity that some good fortune is predestined, and their family is destined to not have this blessing...

Everyone laughed, helped Rui Xue to sit on the chair, and then stepped forward one by one to pick up the four baked cakes wrapped in oil paper by sister-in-law, and said goodbye home with a smile.

On the second day, everyone came to be busy all morning, all the cotton and cloth were sorted, and when the workshop was not busy in the afternoon, Zhang Dahe took a few people, according to the guidance of his shopkeeper, and went from village to village to distribute cotton.

Rui Xue was being quarreled with by several children at this time, but she didn't know that she had earned a good reputation for her family by giving up cotton clothes like this.

During the school vacation, the village children helped the family with their work, Wu Yu, Niuniu, and the big and sunspots who had rented out the fields at home had nothing to do, so they gathered together to play all day long.

Niuniu and Wu Yu inevitably quarreled constantly, from time to time they moved sticks and long knives, and there was a sound of ping pong, Rui Xue couldn't bear it, so she said that she wanted to eat dog dates, and several children immediately changed their clothes, carried baskets, and went to Nanshan to pick fresh.

It was rare for the courtyard to be quiet, and Caiyun Caiyue smiled and put on warm tea and snacks, and said, "Madam, there are still some ingredients left in the stove, why don't we bake some more snacks." ”

"If you're not tired, just roast." Ruixue had no choice but to respond, leaning back on the recliner and swaying slowly, and fell asleep unconsciously, Caiyun Caiyue lightly moved the screen out to block the wind, and took a thin quilt to cover it for her, and then ran to the stove to be busy, and looked at it from time to time.

Ruixue was sleeping soundly, for some reason suddenly had a kind of surprise of being watched, suddenly opened her eyes, looked around, but found that the yard was empty, in the stove room, the colorful clouds and the moon were whispering, the autumn wind blew through the treetops and whined gently, and the occasional sound of carriages entering and exiting the gate in the front yard workshop was no different from usual. Could it be that I was plundered last time, leaving a sick root of fear...

Zhao Fengnian pushed the door and came in from the front yard, and saw his wife sitting on the chair with a puzzled face, her eyebrows and eyes furrowed, so he hurriedly walked over, took her into his arms, patted her gently, and asked, "But you have a nightmare?" ”

Rui Xue didn't want him to worry, so she picked up the doubts in her heart and said with a smile, "No, I just suddenly remembered that a few children went up the mountain, why haven't they come back yet?" ”
