Chapter Seventy-Two: Calculation

"Sister Hongyu, this is a hundred taels of silver, you take it first, the house should be built quickly." Shui Miaomiao put a silver ticket on the table, he had carefully checked this silver ticket, this silver ticket had no mark, and there would be no problem in taking it out and using it.

Zhou Hongyu's hands trembled a little when she held the silver ticket, she hadn't taken so much silver when she was so old, when she married Liu Zimo's father, the Liu family's life was already very poor, and the family raised a scholar, so life was even more tight.

"Miao Miao, thank you, I will return this silver to you as soon as possible." Her voice was a little vibrato, but she kept Shui Miaomiao's love in her heart.

"Sister Hongyu, tomorrow Mrs. Qin will ask someone to send materials, this time we will embroider ordinary embroidery, although the salary is not very much, but it can also increase some income."

Shui Miaomiao said what Mrs. Qin asked her to bring, after all, the embroidery matter still has to be done by Zhou Hongyu's sister-in-law, but she has the heart to help Zhou Hongyu, and she said without waiting for her to speak.

"I told Sister Qing, the next sample will be embroidered by you, there are a hundred kinds of this set of drawings, but it will be delivered at the end of the year, and the sample is fifty wen, Sister Hongyu can do it."

Zhou Hongyu quickly calculated the time in her heart, although the time was a little rushed, but she needed this job, nodded and agreed, "Yes, there are still forty days before the New Year, and I can finish it by embroidering three a day." ”

"Sister Hongyu, in fact, you don't need to be too anxious, you still have to focus on your body." Seeing that she agreed without hesitation, Shui Miaomiao was afraid that she would be tired in a hurry, and if she fell, it would be even worse for that family.

Zhou Hongyu looked at the girl opposite and suddenly felt a little in a trance, Miao Miao is only fourteen years old, and she will not be able to meet until next year, she is a little girl who can shelter two five-year-old children from the wind and rain, and use her immature shoulders to pick up a home, so what about her!

She is the mother of two children, although she does not have Miao Miao's medical skills, nor is she as capable of getting to know a noble person like Mrs. Qin, but she is a mother, she has a pair of skillful hands, although her embroidery skills are not very exquisite, but she can also shelter the two children from the wind and rain.

"Sister, I know, don't worry, I'm a mother, even if it's not for myself, I will take care of my body for that family." She figured it out, she couldn't shrink at home for the sake of her two children, as for what outsiders said, she didn't care anymore, as long as she acted like Miao Miao's sister and did it right, outsiders didn't have a chance to say anything.

Zhoujia Village has become lively, those who have collapsed houses are more difficult at home, if there is silver, they would have built a house a long time ago, and now it is simply worse for them, for this water and rice Oh according to the noodles, he can help once, or twice, but it will definitely not make those people feel that they deserve it.

In addition, she just came to Zhoujia Village not long ago, if she helped too much, it was very likely to raise a bunch of white-eyed wolves, so not only did she not help on the bright side, but also called the people who were treated that night together.

Let the people who have received favors know how much medicine they have shared, how much silver is needed for each medicine, and finally under the witness of the village chief, Shui Miaomiao only charged the cost price and did not even collect the consultation fee, considering that those people are really difficult now, Shui Miaomiao asked them to sign an IOU, and said that they would pay off their debts with merit when they were relieved in the future.

In fact, after saying it clearly, everyone said in their hearts that although Shui Miaomiao is not free, the village chief is right, Shui Miaomiao is not a big family, and it is already a great favor to be able to give everyone free consultation, so why let the family pay for them.

Therefore, the people who were treated by Shui Miaomiao that day were not only not unhappy, but they were very grateful to Shui Miaomiao, which made Zhou Pozi and Fang Pozi, who wanted to say bad things, temporarily shut their mouths.

Early in the morning, Shui Miaomiao's house ushered in a guest, Shui Miaomiao looked at the embarrassed village chief, turned the ring on his hand, and probably knew where he came to find him.

"Uncle Village Chief, I've had breakfast early in the morning." Shui Miaomiao is the master's family, so she asked first.

Zhou Hongyu was also very happy to see her father coming, and personally made tea and came over to him, "Dad, why did you come here so early." ”

"Miao Miao girl, Hongyu, I've already eaten it, you don't have to greet me, my uncle has something to discuss with you." Village Chief Zhou waved his hand so that they didn't have to be busy, he had already eaten breakfast, turned his head to look at Shui Miaomiao, his face was a little red, although he was a little embarrassed, but he still spoke.

"Uncle Village Chief, if he encounters something difficult, if Miao Miao can help, he will definitely not have any spare strength." Since Shui Miaomiao came to Zhoujia Village, the village chief has been really good to her, so if she can help, she must help.

Once Village Chief Zhou's words came out, he was no longer embarrassed, and looked up at Shui Miaomiao, "Girl, the houses that the families in the village want to rebuild, although they are not red brick houses, they also cost a lot of silver." ”

Speaking of this, he sighed, and then continued, "You also know that I don't have much silver in my hand, and I am a little powerless to help them, plus most of the food at home is no longer available, so it is a little difficult to survive this winter. ”

Shui Miaomiao also knew that the village chief couldn't take out so much silver at once, so he counted the silver in his hand, well, there were a lot, and it was not impossible to lend some.

"Village chief, I have some silver here, I lend Sister Hongyu a hundred taels, and there are only more than a hundred taels left, those people want to build a house and rely on these alone is not enough, plus I am going to sell Mrs. Zhou to me to rebuild the old house, temporarily resettle the mother and son of Wednesday Bridge, so that I will only lend you a hundred taels at most."

"Enough, enough, I'll lend them some, they also have some savings, plus the wood and everything to go up the mountain to cut themselves, so that they can also save a lot of silver."

When Village Chief Zhou heard that he could borrow a hundred taels, he became excited, not to mention that the four of them could survive this year, and maybe there was still some left to help those who couldn't survive the winter.

As for repaying the money, he also thought about paying off the debt with work, Miao Miao girl can earn silver, and encourage her to buy more fields in the coming year, so the villagers will have a chance to repay the debt, hehe, this is a double win.

"Uncle thanked you for them." Village Chief Zhou put down a big stone in his heart, and also had the heart to start calculating others, uh, it wasn't calculating, it was for her good.

Shui Miaomiao didn't know that she had been calculated, she was not in a hurry that she didn't have enough money in her hand, at the end of the year, Zhong Lao would send her some furniture shares, and Mrs. Qin would also give a lot.

In fact, she was also thinking about whether to buy some land, what did she read in those novels in her previous life, didn't they all say that the crossing girl would buy a lot of good land, which was also a guarantee for herself, well, it must not be wrong to follow her predecessors.
