Hearing her mother-in-law say this, Qian suddenly felt aggrieved.

Cooking, obviously she can do it, why not let her do it?

Ning Pengpeng didn't have the time to pay attention to how Qian complained in his heart, thinking about what he ordered his cheap daughter to do the day before yesterday, it had been two days, so naturally she had to check the work she had arranged, how Ning Youxi was doing.

In the past two days, Ning Youxi has been like a quail, not daring to come out in front of his mother.

Only when she is not there, do she go out to take a breath.

But two days passed, and the ten fingers were full of pinholes, and the flowers that should be embroidered on the handkerchief were crooked.

Therefore, when Ning Pengpeng pushed the door in, Ning Youxi almost jumped up from the chair in fright.

It's really that day when my mother said seriously that she wanted her brothers to send her to the hanging rope, it was too scary!

"This is the flower you embroidered?"

Ning Pengpeng picked up the embroidered bandage, looked at the orchid grass embroidered on the stuck handkerchief, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching.

Is this an orchid grass?

It's a lump of bird, right?

The black thread lay like a caterpillar on the handkerchief.

"Mother, I was wrong. I don't dare to steal food anymore, so just spare me! Look at my fingers, they are full of needle eyes, I really can't embroider flowers. ”

Ning Youxi stretched out ten fingers to show Ning Pengpeng, with a crying expression on his face.

"It's really not a lady's life."

Ning Pengpeng nodded, since she can't be a lady, let's do something else!

Then Ning Youxi was dumbfounded and looked at the sack of beans in front of him.

"Pick up ...... Picking up beans? ”

"Yes, my beans know by themselves, there are no stones in them. Who can guarantee that there are no stones in these beans that your third brother collected? We are making food, and if we let customers bite into something like pebbles or mud, it will not be good after all.

It's just right, aren't you really bad at embroidery! In that case, let's pick up the beans.

Remember, if I check for stones in the beans you pick, I'll deduct a penny from your dowry.

If you can clean up a sack, you can get as much wages as your third brother gets every day.

Whether to deduct your dowry money, or earn money to add makeup to yourself, it's up to you to choose! ”

Ning Youxi was shocked by his mother's words, if he didn't do a good job, he would have to deduct the silver upside down, how could there be such a thing?

"Mother, am I still your own?"

Seeing that her little daughter was not stomping her feet, Ning Peng had a toothache, and glared at her with disgust and said.

"If I hadn't known that you were my own child, you thought I would have given you this opportunity to earn dowry money? Ning Youxi, let me tell you, don't think about being lazy, fooling around, and picking up beans well.

If you try it, I'll do what I say. ”

Ning Pengpeng turned around and walked out of the house, she had to make all the pastries to be sold tomorrow today, she didn't have the leisure to fight with this girl who was not very flexible.

For more than ten days, the dozen catties of brown sugar in the Liu family's grocery store have been bought by Ning Laosan, not to mention, Ning Laosan also made a special trip to Feng Town, and the brown sugar in the grocery store in Nafeng Town was also bought.

Ning Laosan and Ning Laosi are two people in the town, one sells and the other collects money, and they can earn more than one or two silver every day.

In the past ten days, Ning Pengpeng directly had sixteen taels of silver in his hand.

Not including the five catties of brown sugar left at home now, and hundreds of catties of beans and a hundred catties of glutinous rice.

Those beans and glutinous rice were collected by Ning Pengpeng and the people in those villages along the way when Ning Laosan asked Ning Laosan to go to Fengzhen.

The price is cheaper than that of Dahuaishu Village, so Ning Laosan confiscated it and collected more.

In Ning Laosan's opinion, anyway, these beans, even if they don't make pastries, can eat them themselves, and it doesn't matter if they charge more.

When it was sold on the twentieth day, Ning Pengpeng began to reduce the number of pastries.

"Mother, the business is so good, why don't you sell more?"

Ning Laosan's eyes were almost red from the excitement of the business in the past few days!

Now that the income has dropped from more than one or two pieces of silver to a few hundred Wen, he was suddenly a little anxious, pacing back and forth, and said to Ning Pengpeng impatiently.

"You know a."

Ning Pengpeng rolled her eyes at the third child.

"Look at the village, who eats pastries every day? Even if the people in the town have money, they have a degree. Although our pastries are delicious, the price is not cheap. Eat every day, unless you have mountains of gold and silver at home. ”

Hearing his mother's words, Ning Laosan was dumbfounded, calmed down and thought about it, as if it was really the case.

"That'...... So what can I do? Do you have to reduce the amount of sales in the future? ”

Although the silver sold now is all in the hands of my mother.

But the mother also said before that after half a year, if they are willing to do it alone, she will not object.

Now like this, will you still be a fart alone in half a year?

"Hmph, we don't do this, naturally some people want to do it. By the way, I asked you to ask about the cow, how was the question? ”

Nowadays, there are few families with cattle, and most of them are wealthy families with small property, so they will buy cattle and come back to help with farming.

In the entire big locust tree village, there are only two families with cattle.

One of them is the Li Zheng family, and the other is the Pan family next door.

When Pan Dazhu is not in the field, he will make an appointment with the people in the village who want to go to the town, pull it at once, and then pull it back again to earn some money to spend.

It's just that Mrs. Pan and Mrs. Ning have always been at odds with each other, and Mrs. Ning would rather walk to the town than take the Pan family's ox cart.

Now Ning Pengpeng naturally couldn't go to Pan's house to ask about the cow, so she asked Ning Laosan to go to the town and ask who had calves to sell.

"There are two cows that are about to give birth, but the cows are too small to buy them! There is also a cow in the prime of life, but the price is not low. ”

Being pulled by Ning Pengpeng like this, Ning Laosan's attention suddenly turned to the cow.

After all, he was born as a farmer, and he is most interested in cattle, which is the most hopeful livestock in the field.

Therefore, he explained to Ning Pengpeng in detail.

"The price is not low? How much silver does that cost? ”

Ning Pengpeng asked directly, and she didn't think it was useful to the calf. After all, she bought this cow for other purposes besides transportation!

"The son of that family is a good gambler, and he seems to owe a lot of money. So, I'm going to sell the cow at home. But the price was twenty taels of silver, so no one bought it. ”

The newborn calf can only be bought for ten taels of silver, and now it is not cost-effective to spend twice the price to buy a cow in the prime of life.

After all, cows only need to eat grass.

As long as it takes a year, it is guaranteed that a calf can be raised fat and strong, where does it cost ten taels of silver?

Who wants to be the head of this injustice and buy it with an extra ten taels of silver?
