Chapter 24 Another ability to make money
With the help of Aunt Zhao, Yuer finally solved this major event in life, and also had a little bit of emotion--again, she became a girl in the blink of an eye. I'm afraid she will get married again, and then she will be the mother of the child.
Thinking of these paths in life, the fish can't help but miss the little trap who is far away in Quanzhou and is always stupid to let her bully. While thinking of the small bolt, Qin Henglin's face also appeared in Yuer's mind by mistake, which made Yuer suddenly startled herself and hurriedly shook her head hard in an attempt to throw Qin Henglin's face out of her mind.
Since then, she has become the fish of a real girl, and she can't help but wonder who her future son-in-law will be, whether it will be the little trap she worked hard to cultivate and transform when she was a child, or will there be someone else...
The days passed day by day in the fish's accidental daze and imagination. In a blink of an eye, the fish earned a small amount of money by embroidery, which was earned by the fish in three months. In the past three months, the fish have rushed to work day and night and embroidered a total of 20 pieces of embroidery products. These embroidery products were taken to the embroidery shop in the city for 3,000 cents.
Because these copper coins are exchanged intermittently, although there are 3,000 cents, they are still scattered copper plates, not equivalent three taels of silver. These copper fish found a small box to put them up, then carefully hid them in the inner corner of the head of the bed, and then covered the box with a quilt.
These copper fish have to be taken out and counted every night. Every time they increase, the fish will grin happily and look like a little money fan. And after counting the copper plates, the fish will exchange them for silver in their hearts, and then silently calculate how much money is missing to make up the travel expenses.
On this day, after counting the money and hiding the money box, the fish lay down and started to stay -- she has been in the Qin family for more than seven months, but now the money saved by the Qin family as an embroider and the money saved by the embroidery products is only ten taels of silver in total.
It took seven months to save ten taels of silver. If you save it at this rate, you can save enough money to go home!
You have to think of some ways to make money quickly...
Yuer fell asleep in a daze with this idea. When she woke up, she washed up and went out. Before she could go to the hall for breakfast, she saw several long workers of the Qin family have opened in the yard.
When the fish went from her room for breakfast, she was about to cross the whole yard, so the fish looked at the busy long workers and saw that they seemed to be busy moving some slates to the yard.
The fish are no stranger to those slates, so they can see that the long workers moved those slates in and planned to build a pigsty in the open space in the corner of the yard.
It is common for people in this countryside to build a pigsty and a chicken house, so the fish are not surprised. After a few glances, they walk to the hall as usual...
But after walking a few steps, the fish suddenly stopped, suddenly turned around and looked at the long stone slabs that the long workers were carrying, and soon had a good idea in mind - in addition to embroidery, she could carve pictures to sell!
This shadow sculpture is so valuable in the area of origin in Hui'an, and it must be more valuable in Jianzhou!
And you don't have to spend money to buy the raw materials of this sculpture. As long as you carefully search in the mountains or streams, you can find some stones that can be used to engrave shadow carvings. Even if there are more stones, it doesn't matter. As long as you can carve shadows and paintings, even the price of some shadows and paintings is much higher than embroidery. .
Therefore, as long as the fish's idea can be realized, her speed of saving money can be immediately increased several times. As long as she sculpted a few pictures, the fish's journey home will soon be collected.
The moment I thought of the fish's mood immediately became very happy. When I went to the hall for breakfast, I didn't feel a little like a spring breeze on my face, which made Qin Henglin, who was sitting opposite the fish, feel that the fish was very beautiful today and couldn't help looking at her a few more times.
However, Qin Henglin remembered that the fish didn't pay much attention to him recently, so his face soon darken and just bowed his head without saying a word.
The fish, who was happy because he found a new way to make money, did not notice Qin Henglin's strangeness. As soon as he left the house after breakfast, he deliberately slowed down half a step. When he saw Qin Henglin coming out, he quickly whispered to him, "Brother Qin, when you come to Liu Niang's room later, I have something to tell you."
After saying this, Yuer hurriedly led Qin Liuniang away. When Qin Heng saw that Yuer took the initiative to find the glanguity on his face, he immediately swept away. Instead, his face was full of joy. Qin Silang, who came from behind him, looked puzzled and asked, "Xiaowu, didn't you still look down when you just ate? Why? Why did you smile in the blink of an eye?
Qin Henglin didn't have time to answer, so the third son of the Qin family and Qin Sanniang laughed and teased their younger brother, "Yo, Xiaowu, have you found the gold? My mouth is laughing so much that it's about to crack my ears!"
This Qin Heng is cheerful. Except for being shy in front of the fish, he will not be embarrassed in front of his brothers and sisters. He just joked with Qin Sanniang happily: "Yes! Little brother, I just picked up gold. Third sister, do you want to go to the city with me and pick up two pieces of gold?
"You stinky boy, is there gold in the city and it's your turn to take me to pick it up? Don't be perfunctory!"
The three sisters and brothers walked outside the house with a smile. When they got out of the house, they dispersed and went away. Qin Heng saw that Qin Sanniang and Qin Silang had left, and then turned back to Qin Liuniang's house.
This Qin Liuniang is used to her brother always coming to play with her, so she didn't greet Qin Henglin, but said directly carelessly, "Brother, the things I want to embroider today have not been finished and I can't play with you. You can talk to Sister Yuer for a while first!"
Qin Henglin came to find the fish. As soon as he heard this, he hurriedly said, "Okay, I won't disturb you. You can embroider well. Just have your fish sister to chat with me."
Qin Henglin said and sat far away in the corner near the window. Yuer pointed Qin Liuniang a few more words and then sat down. As soon as he opened his mouth, he went straight to the topic: "Brother Qin, I don't know if there are many stones near Baishi Village? I want to choose some suitable stones to carve pictures.
"Ba Niangzi, can you carve pictures?" Qin Henglin was obviously very surprised by the fish.
"Hui'an is the hometown of shadow carvings. I have been lucky enough to learn from a teacher for a few years, and I can simply carve a few pictures that can still see people." The fish knew that he wanted to carve shadow sculptures to sell, which was inseparable from Qin Henglin's help, so he said his plan at the moment: "I think At present, I save money too slowly, so..."
Yuer soon told Qin Henglin that he wanted to change his intention to change the sculpture shadow sculpture for money. Qin Henglin frowned for a while after listening, and finally gave Yuer a suggestion: "There is a stream near our village, but I don't know if the stone there can be used as a material for carving shadow carvings, and I don't know Ba Niangzi. What kind of stone do you want to choose?"
Yuer was very happy to see Qin Henglin say that there is a stream in Baishi Village. After all, those stones that have been washed by the stream for many years are most suitable for carving pictures.
So the fish immediately said with a happy face, "Isn't this easy? Don't you know when I go with you to have a look?
Qin Henglin's mind has always been delicate, so he didn't agree after listening to the fish's words, but persuaded the fish: "Isn't Ba Niangzi busy embroidering things in his spare time? Why don't you tell me what kind of stone you want, and I'll see if there is any stone you want near the stream in the village..."
"If I come back to tell you, you can choose with me again, so that you can also waste less time and embroider more things for money," Qin Henglin said and looked at the fish with some embarrassment, and his voice lowered his voice: "The shopkeeper of the embroidery shop didn't do a good job for you a few days ago. Do you want to embroider ten handkerchiefs, ten purses and ten fan covers as soon as possible? I'm also afraid that you won't have time to embroider these things, so I came up with such a method.
Qin Henglin said this, and the fish remembered that he still had these tasks to do, so he thought about it and agreed to Qin Henglin's proposal: "Look, I just wanted to find a stone that could carve pictures earlier, but I forgot this urgent event! Thank you, Brother Qin, for reminding me, otherwise I will definitely delay the delivery time.
Since Yuer remembered what she had forgotten because of excitement, the carving had to be postponed for a while, so Yuer quickly told Qin Henglin about her new plan: "How about this? I'll tell Brother Qin what kind of stones I want. Brother Qin, please slowly look for me and wait for me to embroider this batch. If the product comes out, and then take time to pick it with you, okay?
Qin Henglin promised cheerfully, "Yes, that's it."
Qin Henglin readily agreed, and the fish suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She felt that she didn't pay attention to him some time ago, but she found it as soon as she needed help, so she suddenly felt a trace of guilt...
The fish felt guilty, and when he remembered the reason for avoiding Qin Henglin, he suddenly said something unfavorably: "But I always ask Brother Qin to help me do things. Will it delay Brother Qin's serious work? Will it bother you to review your homework?
Qin Henglin is also very happy with every group of fish, so he replied happily, "It's okay, it's okay. Anyway, I'm very idle these days of school holidays, just to help you find stones to pass the time."
