Eight pennies, it's so cheap! Is embroidery so cheap now?

Seeing that she was silent, the woman thought it was too expensive, gritted her teeth and said, "Girl, if you like it, you can pay five cents!" ”

Her younger brother is seriously ill and needs money to cure his illness and save his life, and she has not opened it today, so there is no way to treat his brother without money.

Wen Xi shook his head, and before he could speak, he saw that the woman's face was gray, and she said weakly: "How much silver does the girl want to buy?" ”

Wenxi knew that she had misunderstood what she meant, and hurriedly explained: "Girl, although your embroidery skills are good, but this fabric is too bad, I'm afraid it won't be sold." ”

The woman nodded, she also knew this truth, but her family did not have the money to buy good fabrics, and this was still made by picking up rags that other people didn't want.

"Why don't you come and work with me! I pay you for your work, I like your craft. Wen Xi said with a smile.

The woman looked up at her with surprise in her eyes, then lowered her head again and muttered, "No, I can't go out to work." ”

"Why is that?"

"There is also a young brother in the family, my parents died of illness last year, I raised my younger brother alone, he is only four years old, and recently contracted a vicious disease, if no one takes care of him, he will not survive." She sobbed quietly and said, "Today, I asked the aunt next door to take care of one or two, and I came out to set up a stall to exchange some silver to buy medicine for him." ”

She understood.

No wonder such a good craft, no embroidery workshop wants her.

It's just that she's almost turned into a shelter, and it doesn't matter if there's one more.

She would be a fool to keep such a good craft out.

"It's okay, I have a lot of empty rooms there, you can take your brother to settle down, and I know some medical skills myself, you can show him."

When the woman heard this, she burst into tears with excitement.

It can be said that I was surprised and delighted.

"Thank you, girl!" She wiped away her tears and said, "Then bother the girl." ”

The woman led them around to a dilapidated house, where the paper on the windows was broken and the door hung crookedly.

When I went inside, I saw a woman washing towels.

"Thank you, Auntie." The woman took the towel and said gratefully.

"It's okay, I don't have to sell vegetables today, it's just free, I'll leave when you come back, by the way, Nan Nan, your brother seems to be more serious, I feel hot when I touch my head!"

Tang Nannan hurriedly looked back at Wenxi.

Wen Xi stepped forward and looked at the boy lying on the bed, where did he look like a four-year-old, so thin, he looked like he was two years old at most.

The boy described it as withered, and his cheeks were sunken.

She rolled the boy's eyelids and put her hand on his pulse.

In just a few moments, the cause of the child's illness was known.

When it comes to treatment, it's really very simple.

This child is not enough in the womb, but if he is well recuperated, he can soon reach the level of a normal person, but he has not eaten anything good since he was born, and he is infected with wind and cold, so he will come to this point.

She took out a tonic pill from her pocket, and this was the most appropriate for the child's state to take.

She turned to Tang Nannan and said, "You brothers and sisters go to me!" His illness will soon be cured. ”

"Really?" Tang Nannan only felt that he had hit a big luck, and he had such a generous owner!

She wrapped Tang Xin in the only quilt, for fear that his illness would be serious, but when it came time to get into the carriage, she hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Wen Xi saw that she hadn't gotten into the car for a long time, and she was cramped and uneasy standing below, so she knew it, and said with a smile: "Get in the car, your brother can't see the wind." ”

"But we're dirty, and we're afraid we'll stain your car." She looked at her clothes, especially her shoes, which were covered with mud, and she didn't dare to get into the car, for fear of annoying her and losing such a good errand.

"It's okay, come on!"

Seeing that she insisted, Tang Nannan gritted her teeth and got into the car.

She had seen carriages on the street countless times, but a poor family like them would never be able to board a carriage for the rest of their lives, and even if they sold her, they would not be able to afford such a good car, or even a horse that would pull it.

She sat at the edge of the door, holding Tang Xin carefully, for fear of getting a little dirty.

Wenxi asked her a lot of questions, and she answered them all one by one.

"Nan Nan, you come to work with me, I will give you fifteen taels of silver a month, including food and accommodation, what do you think?"

Fifteen taels!

Tang Nannan was stunned by this salary.

She never dreamed she could make so much money.

Hurriedly nodded: "Xie Dongjia!" I'm going to do a good job! ”

"Your brother can live with you, and I have taken in a lot of children there, and they can be regarded as a companion, and when they grow up, they can stay with me to work, or they can go out to set up their own doors or participate in scientific expeditions."

Scientific expedition?

People like them, even if they take the scientific examination, they can't pass the exam, and the cost of binding is too high

But no matter what, it is already extremely lucky to have such a good place to go now, and when Tang Xin grows up, he will work here, how good!

"When Tang Xin grows up, let him give you a car."

Wen Xi smiled and didn't answer.

She hopes that they can go to study and get ahead in the scientific examination in the future.

No matter which dynasty, Shinong, industry and commerce, and merchants are at the bottom of the list, even if they are rich, in the eyes of those who take the official career, they are like ants.

Therefore, it is often heard that a son of a poor family has a half-official position, and the local squire or wealthy merchant marries his daughter to him.

So she strongly demanded that Wen Tao must study.

Now that I can be enlightened at the age of three, it seems that I need to find a knowledgeable teacher.

handed over Tang Nannan to the previously hired mother-in-law, and Wenxi went to the market again.

When she came to a shop that sold cars, the boss saw her getting down from the carriage and following her subordinates, so he hurriedly greeted her, and said with a smile: "Miss, please come in, what do you need?" ”

"I want a carriage."

"Come with me to the back stable."

Wenxi loves horses, and in his previous life, he often went to the horse riding field, and he is still a middle master.

Her master said that her self-confidence on horseback even surpassed that of medical skills.

When she came to the stable, she immediately took a fancy to the white horse standing at the end.

I saw that his whole body was snow-white, his limbs were strong and advantageous, and he looked like a good horse.

When the boss saw that she had chosen this one, the smile in his eyes was infinitely magnified, and he said, "Miss is really good eyesight, this is the best horse in our store." ”

Wen Xi nodded, knowing that it was not a lie, and asked, "How much silver is this horse." ”

"Fifty taels."

Fifty taels, the price is cheap, she thought that the boss would offer a few hundred taels, and she wanted to bargain slowly and experience the fun, but she didn't expect that she didn't have room to play at all.

She paid the money neatly, and the boss led the horse out, and when she passed by her, Wenxi's brows furrowed.

She looked at the horses' hoof prints and asked, "Boss, where did this horse come from?" ”
