Chapter 41: The Best Sister-in-law (41)
After Sister-in-law Xu's tailor shop opened, business was really good.
First, the clothes are fashionable and novel, and there are many people who come in to see them, and there will always be a few styles that are ordered to be ordered.
Second, Sister-in-law Xu's craftsmanship is getting better and better. The same clothes, she made delicate stitches and fewer threads, and it was much more comfortable to wear than the ones she bought in the mall.
A young female teacher was just passing by to take a look, but she couldn't take her eyes off it and bought the red gauze dress and pleated waist-cinching short-sleeved shirt on the spot.
That's also because I don't have enough money in my wallet, otherwise I would like to buy two more.
Sister-in-law Xu was so happy that she smiled every day.
The mood is good, people have motivation again, the food at home is rising, and there is a little more interest when they are in love with men at night, unlike before, when they were tired from day to night, they coped with the most.
Xu Zhinian was a little flattered, and then looked satisfied.
It is only now that I have been married that I have truly experienced the joy.
As a result, the relationship between husband and wife has been greatly sublimated.
Xu Yin is happy to see this.
The good relationship between brother and sister-in-law means the success of her anti-cannon fodder campaign.
She accompanied her sister-in-law to do the business of a stable tailor shop, and also accompanied her to the Chengbei wholesale market several times during the period.
When my sister-in-law ran to the north of the city alone, she was no longer so cowardly, and she also came up with a large number of systematic stockpiling to exchange them for local high-quality and inexpensive local products in Tongcheng.
There are whitebait, white shrimp, June yellow lake crabs produced in the big lake, sheep, ducks, geese and various eggs raised by the lakeside, as well as wool felt, cashmere thread, and various colors of fabrics.
Now that the farm is about to be busy, it's time for her to go home.
Sister-in-law Xu and the two children can't help it.
"Okay, my little sister is just going home, and you can come back when you have a holiday in the future, you guys are like parting with life and death." Xu Zhinian couldn't help but complain.
"Phew! Can you speak? Sister-in-law Xu glared at him.
Xu Zhinian knew that he was wrong, and touched his nose, and his daughter-in-law became more and more fierce.
Having said that, he can't remember how his daughter-in-law and his little sister got along before, but it's definitely not as sticky as it is now.
The leader and comrades-in-arms envy his family harmony, after the sister-in-law came, not only did not have any conflicts with his sister-in-law, but also helped his sister-in-law open a tailor shop, and had to help buy goods and make clothes, and her sister-in-law was not as good as her.
"Well, if only your sister had stayed here." They all want to protect the matchmaker, who doesn't have a marriageable relative yet.
"Go! My sister is going to college. Xu Zhinian took a bite of them and asked for face!
Anyway, the daughter-in-law and the little sister have a good relationship, he is the one who benefits the most, and he must be content.
Xu Zhinian carried the luggage packed by his daughter-in-law on his shoulders and sent his little sister to the train station.
"The luggage is too heavy, I'll check it in for you. Pay attention to safety on the road, take care of your backpack, and send a telegram back when you get home, don't let me worry about your sister-in-law. ”
"Got it."
……
Xujia Village has been lively these days.
By word of mouth, people in nearby villages basically know that there are families in Xujia Village who are raising fish in rice fields this year.
At first, it was just a gimmick, thinking that these people really had money and nowhere to spend, and bought fish fry to raise in the rice fields, how big can they raise?
I didn't expect to be really raised by them.
"Guobang, this fish has to be almost a pound, right?"
Xu Guobang's rice field is relatively close to the village road, and the villagers can't help but show envy when they see that his family's fish has been raised for three months and is so big.
"One pound and three taels." Xu Guobang scooped up a big carp and showed it to the onlookers, "It's not the biggest, there is a grass carp that is bigger than this." ”
"It's gone!" Someone voiced everyone's thoughts, "Guobang, your family is going to send it this year, how many have you raised?" ”
"Six hundred." Xu Dajia smiled so much that he couldn't see his eyebrows.
Her family drained the water to collect fish today, and the whole family came to the field, and their trouser legs were rolled high, and they all went to the drain to catch fish.
"However, if I put down 600 fry, I guess I can get nine good results. When I first raised it, I estimated that I didn't fit in, and a batch died. ”
"Ninety percent is a lot, an average of one catty each, there are more than five hundred catties, how much is the price of fish now?"
"A few days ago, the June yellow in Hutang Village was sold for six cents and five cents a catty, and the fish was about the same price, maybe it could be eight cents and one cent."
Some villagers coaxed: "Oh, big feet, your family can earn three or four hundred from these fish alone." ”
Xu Dajiao had a smile on his face: "What nonsense! Don't you need to spend money on fish fry? Besides, not all of them weigh a pound, and there are small ones, don't you see? ”
"There are not many small ones, but there are still a lot of people making money overall."
"Not really! If only we had raised it together! ”
"It's too late to say that now! I said at that time, Yin Ya has a flexible mind, and it is right to listen to her, otherwise she can be sent to college? You don't listen to my ......."
"Hey! Then why didn't you insist in the first place? We said no, why did you quit with it? ”
The villagers were talking about it, and they all regretted that they didn't follow Xu Guoshun's family to raise rice and fish together.
"Speaking of the Guoshun family, his family doesn't seem to raise much, only half of your family."
Xu Jianjun walked over with water: "More than half, I heard Yin Yin mention that there are a total of 268 fish fry of three kinds in her family, but her fish are better than mine, and the largest one I see is more than two catties." ”
"Wow-" everyone exclaimed in unison, "three months to raise more than two catties?" How did you raise this? Hutang Village can't raise such a big fish in a year. ”
"The fish feed is particular." Seeing someone handing him a cigarette, Xu Jianjun wiped his hands and took the flue, "Yin Yin read it from the book, you have to raise it when you go back, and I'll tell you again." If there is no formula she gave, it will be raised to four or five taels at most in three months. Yin Yin also said that the fish have a large space for movement, which means that the living environment is good and easy to raise. When I went back to the late rice and transplanted the seedlings, I planned to separate and put three or four hundred strips per acre, which was a bit more troublesome to change the water, but it was worth it. ”
"Wow! Jianjun, your family still needs to raise fish next season? Everyone's eyes widened when they heard this, and they not only had to raise it, but it seemed that they had to raise a lot.
Xu Guobang has three sons and four grandsons, and the people are prosperous, and there are eight or nine acres of paddy fields alone, which are all used to raise rice, flowers and fish......
Hiss! It's hard to say that this income is not good!
Xu Jianjun smiled calmly: "Of course! I plan to plant rice, raise rice, flowers and fish every year in the future, and raise it for two seasons a year. I don't believe it, I can't earn money to work in the factory during the Chinese New Year. ”
He really had that idea.
Of course, this idea was also instilled in him by Xu Yin.
In the past, the reason why the peasants felt that they had no income and flocked to work in the factories in the city was because they were poor and could not have enough to eat.
But if you grow both rice and fish, and the rice is full and the fish is raised to make money, who rarely goes to work in the factory?
Of course, he only dares to say this in his heart now, otherwise he won't be beaten by his parents. I spent money for him to go to night school, and in the end he went back to the village to farm, which is not foolish.
