"Charcoal is a small profit but quick turnover, fragrant pancreas is limited to our family every month, not to mention paper, and it can't make a lot of money from selling, so maltose is also, you have to use food to do it temporarily, lip grease tooth powder shampoo and comfrey paste don't seem to be able to go, and only the dyeing business can do it."

Yan Yu spoke eloquently, his voice crisp and clear.

"The white cotton cloth is dyed black and blue by the dyeing bureau and needs seven and a half of silver, which is still the official price, and the folk dyeing bureau is more expensive.

My mother and I have studied the whole bamboo slip, although it is written that it is blue dyeing, but in fact, the color of the dyeing cloth, all the way, plants and flowers can be colored, as long as you master the method of coloring and fixing the color, red, pink, yellow, green, purple, blue, black...... Whatever color nature has, we will dye it! ”

The more Yan Yu spoke, the more energetic he became, and his little fists were clenched.

"Build a dyeing vat, carefully maintained, can be dyed for a long time, only the initial cost of building a vat, the back of the labor cost is almost negligible, if we can start from the blue dyeing, develop a variety of colors, a dyeing workshop will have, Dad, you said that you want to hand over the future dyeing workshop, your current reason is not enough to convince me."

Yan Lao Er was speechless for himself, a girl who had done a lot of preparation work in advance at a glance, and took the matter of dyeing cloth to heart.

Li Xuemei looked at him and suddenly said, "Little Er, go to your aunt's house and invite someone to our house to sit down." ”

Yan Yuzheng said that when he heard this, he tilted his little head and looked at Li Xuemei.

Hmm, Lisuo dressed on the kang.

When she left, Li Xuemei asked directly, "What are you going to do with this money?" ”

Don't say anything to hand over to the eldest brother and hand it over to the family.

In the past few months, Li Xuemei has also seen that it is true that Yan is a big parent, but he does not care about the silver expenses at home, etc., he likes the feeling of his younger brother and children being embraced, or in other words, when he reports to him, he enjoys the atmosphere of his family being together at that moment, and it is the same to give his younger brother and children money.

A person with introverted feelings, the care for the family he cares about, is expressed through the most mundane and universal things.

Those silver coins and copper plates can also be regarded as Yan Huaiwen's love.

As long as there is no shortage of money in the family, the eldest brother has never taken the initiative to ask about the family's accounts.

Yan Lao Er approached his daughter-in-law, stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her, and gently put his head on Li Xuemei's shoulder. "If you really don't do anything, I feel like I should give it to my eldest brother."

Li Xuemei patted his hand and encouraged him to continue.

"Except for the eldest girl's family affairs...... The eldest brother also said one thing, after the exam next year, he may go to wait for the official......"

"Waiting?" Li Xuemei looked puzzled, pushed his head away, turned sideways, and let the two face each other.

"The imperial court has this provision, if you win the lift, you can go to the capital to wait for the official, or you can wait for the vacancy in the house, do you still need to wait for the shortage in Guanzhou, it is all ready-made, one is allowed here, and other big mansions are short of people, and when you arrive in Guanzhou Mansion, our eldest brother can probably pick one and pick a shortage......"

"What time is it, you're still kidding." Li Xuemei said angrily.

Yan Lao Er sneered and said, "Get used to ......"

"Big brother isn't going to take the exam?" Li Xuemei felt that it was wrong, this was different from what her daughter said, didn't she say that he would become a big official in the future?

"The eldest brother said that he wants to prepare for another three years, and if he is promoted in the exam, he will enter Beijing for the next subject." Yan Lao Er frowned and said: "But I don't think it's right, if you are not sure, shouldn't you study at home with peace of mind, or find a good academy to take classes seriously for a few years, how can you want to wait for an official......

I don't really understand here, can I continue to take the exam after being an official? The eldest brother said that it might be okay...... But daughter-in-law, do you say that the eldest brother thinks that our family is weak, so he doesn't go to study and chooses to work and study like this? ”

Yan Lao Er inevitably had to think more.

After all, the girl is young and has never been out of the campus, and the two of them have taken the place of Yan Lao and the second husband and wife to live, in fact, there has always been a pressure in their hearts.

If they could split up at the beginning, it would be good for their family to live their own small life.

Seeing Lao Yan, their good eldest brother has no intention of separating the family, and the family has to take care of all aspects of their life.

What he said before was not a lie to prepare for the eldest girl in advance, the woman's dowry is too important, that is the confidence in the future in the in-law's family.

And if the eldest brother and Heng'er want to go all the way to the exam, they will also need a lot of money.

"Why don't you say this directly to the child?" Li Xuemei stared at him and said calmly: "We all know what kind of character Xiaoyu is, as long as you explain the reason, she is not a child who values money." ”

"I actually...... I didn't think about it, in the end, only our daughter can see the things on the platform, didn't we also say that those things are all our big treasures, and the second treasure will be raised according to the children here, and they should be hidden, and they won't let her know about them.

Therefore, whether it is a hand-copied book or a bamboo slip, it is all our treasure.

I don't have a good heart, so I dig into the corner of our daughter's wall and stick it to the house...... Alas, what do you say, I think that our side is doing a prosperous job, and the eldest brother has no money to make it, so it's not good......"

If the family doesn't have enough money, the eldest brother has to think of ways to make money, so he doesn't study well but goes to wait for an official.

Yan Lao Er said with a serious expression: "Let me tell you, these candidates are all petty officials of eight or nine grades, and there are not many of them, after a few years, if you concentrate on studying, is the eldest brother more sure, the teacher said, the higher you go, the more difficult it is to take the exam, and thousands of troops cross the single-plank bridge......"

Li Xuemei listened to the movement outside, and her daughter invited someone over.

Then he said: "You will negotiate the tofu business for your daughter first, and if the time is early, you will go around the village, and then come back for dinner, and I will talk to our Dabao." ”

Yan Laoer's face was overjoyed, and he suddenly felt that with the leader of his family, he would definitely succeed.

Li Xuemei saw through his careful thoughts, and glanced at him: "Don't think too much, at present, your reasons haven't convinced me yet, I think you have been around Teacher Tian for nothing, and you have learned very problematically. ”

As if you could beat her.

It's too biased to know yourself!

Yan Lao Er said aggrievedly: "The teacher said that when you encounter things, think a lot, don't always speak straightforwardly, and when dealing with scholars in the future, you have to be in the clouds, and you have to talk about it in the left and the left, so that people can't feel the pulse, I've been thinking about it for a while, daughter-in-law, put you like this, I learned it in vain." ”

Li Xuemei's eyes swept to the sheepskin coat on the kang, and pointed: "Look at this clothes, it is out of the sheep, put it on the body, and if you put it on it, you will still be a dog, and you will not become a sheep." ”

Gou Zhu was lying in the house honestly, and when he heard the mention of its name, he pricked up his ears, stood up and shook his hair, and jumped on the kang vertically, and the dog's head arched and arched, and he got under his clothes and came out from the other end.

Sticking out his tongue, he walked briskly in front of Li Xuemei and Yan Laoer, and showed it in circles.

Li Xuemei laughed and nodded its dog head.

Yan Laoer: ......

One more ha~
