Chapter 294 Worry
Several people sat down. Li Xiaoyao looked at the green orange and red orange tea, but laughed with Sister Zhang, "Big sister, look at this garden, do you think our family is small?"
"This is incomparable!" Sister Zhang smiled cheerfully and said, "As soon as I looked all the way, I was worried. How many people have to take care of this house so big? Do you think there are only two masters inside and outside, and there are dozens of servants to live in such a big house, right? This is the style of a rich family. How can this be our life?!" Mrs. Sun also nodded repeatedly to show her approval. Li Xiaoyao took the tea handed over by Qingcheng, blew it, and carefully took a smile and said, "I heard that your snack shop is doing well now. Will you become a rich family in a few years?"
"That's different, Xiaowu, I don't hide it from you. You can't live like this, and you can't live like this with money. If you really can't do this housework, buy a few people back to use it, and it's not that it can't be used, but you said that if it's what happened to a row of little girl as we saw in the Shuijia last year? If you don't do it, just stand and look good. What's the matter? Look at those girl's hands, which are as tender as green onions, and their nails are so long and red. Do you think she is the master or the girl? Sister Zhang stretched out her hand and drew her long nails, sighing and shaking her head.
"Look at what Zhang Da/Grandma said, the girl is also close to her and rough. Although our hands are like green onions, we don't work. Aren't we made of the purses, sachets, silk ribbons and so on for the girl? And this, how about tasting my tea? As Qingcheng handed tea to Sister Zhang, she said anxiously. Sister Zhang took the tea and took a sip of it, put down the cup, reached out and patted Qingcheng and said, "Your tea is good, but it's too expensive!" I'm different from your girl. Who can't afford your girl? I can't. I can't afford half of a delicate girl like you. I just drink a big bowl of tea!"
The crowd laughed at what Sister Zhang said. Aunt Sun looked at the crowd and smiled and said, "Last month, my elder sister and I were under the manpower. I really couldn't take care of it, so I had to buy two people to come back. The elder sister picked people and didn't care about it. She only looked at whether they were strong or not. As soon as she came up, she first asked them to eat a few bowls of rice, less than three bowls. Let it be taken back, and the rest, let people hold the blue stone pier, and they won't say anything to scare the man's teeth. Li Xiaoyao smiled and pointed to Sister Zhang and said, "It's still affordable. That's good!" Later, if I pick someone, I will also come to find the elder sister. Sister Zhang blushed slightly and said, "What do you want her to do with those things that are not useful?"
"It turns out that we all like it but not! This tea is not for grandma!" Qingcheng was about to take the cup next to Sister Zhang. Sister Zhang stretched out her hand and opened Qingcheng's hand and smiled, "Damn girl, I didn't say you. You like it and it's useful, okay!"
Zhihuang Pavilion laughed and laughed for a long time. Qingcheng made another cup of tea and handed it to Li Xiaoyao. Li Xiaoyao looked at Sister Zhang and laughed, "Listen to Wan's candied shop to deliver snacks for you?"
"No! I didn't see that Mingwan's business was really clear and bright. Although her preserves were not good-looking, they were much cheaper than others, and the taste was not bad at all. I made snacks, which were originally chopped. Of course, I wanted her to be suitable. Later, I knew that she dared to hire two more people and specially divided those preserves into three or six. Nine, the most broken and most ugly, let people sell them to each other for snacks like me. Those that look neat and beautiful are sent to the winery. Although the price of the candied food in the winery is the same as others, her goods are better than each piece. Look, this business experience, at least with care!" Sister Zhang sighed repeatedly. Li Xiaoyao listened attentively and smiled relaxedly and with satisfaction on her face.
Speaking of Mingwan, Li Xiaoyao thought of the Fan family again. After thinking about it, he simply looked at Sister Zhang and Aunt Sun and asked, "How are the rooms of the Fan family now?"
"Of course, life is not as good as before. In the past, there was no need to do any work, delicious food and people waiting for them. Of course, there is no such good life now. However, it is also good. There are warmth and fullness. Those children who are attached to the Shui clan have also been studying. No one is difficult for them. They are good at listening, speaking and reading well. The gentleman praised that in autumn, Pu Wa, the grandson of Third Aunt Liu, also reached the age of going to school, and Third Aunt Liu led the child to school, ha!" Sister Zhang smiled, curled her lips and continued, "Do you really think you have such a big face? Do they want to enter the water clan? I heard that the gentleman didn't even meet, so I asked someone to send a sentence. Unless the patriarch speaks, the Shui clan will not accept children with foreign surnames. That's how it was sent out. Third Aunt Liu first led the child to Mingwan's door. What can Mingwan do? She didn't even know where the water family was. After that, she found me again. There was nothing I could do. I didn't have such a big face! Later, I found Mother Zhang in Liushu Hutong.
"I haven't reported this matter to the girl. Third Aunt Liu led the child to the door. I figured out what the girl meant. If the girl was there, she would not care about the child's study. I discussed it with Wisteria and wanted to take the girl's post. Later, Tong Da/Grandma heard about this, but she sent someone to tell her. A word." Mother Zhang hurriedly squeezed in to explain. Li Xiaoyao nodded, looked at Sister Zhang, and motioned her to continue talking. Sister Zhang laughed and said, "This time, you finally know that this is difficult to study. Is it easy to invite you to study?! How many can afford it? It doesn't matter if you spend a lot of money in that clan, they also paste two meals and a snack, and pen, ink, paper and inkstone are also ready-made. If you want to enter, you have to rely on her Fan family?
"Let's say less. What are the three aunts doing now?" Li Xiaoyao interrupted Sister Zhang's words and laughed. Sister Zhang didn't mind, and then said, "I just have to let them know and weigh their own weight. Although people are not burdened, they are not easy to make a living. Third Aunt Liu's daughter-in-law is very good at needlework, and she can make a lot of money by needlework. Third Aunt Liu has done housework. Let her daughter-in-law concentrate on making needles and threading. When she is free, she goes to Mingwan's shop to help pick preserves. Mingwan is also generous. She can only treat her kindly and never be harshly. This person is blessed when she is kind. In this way, Third Aunt Liu can also earn a lot of oil and salt money. She lives a decent life. The fourth sister-in-law set up a needle and thread stall at the gate of the courtyard and sells it. Needles and threads, helping people hit the hook. I didn't know that she actually hit the hook. No matter what the trick is, you can do it at a glance. Mother Zhang also asked people to take the hooks used in this house to her, making her earn a lot of money, but Wanliu aunts are more bitter. She is old and her grandchildren are young. Alas, I can Lian, at such an old age, with gray hair, and there was no good way to think about it, so I called her to my shop to fold a special fruit box. No matter how much she folded or how much she folded, she would pay according to it. But with a few big money, she would do good deeds and accumulate virtue. Mingwan called her granddaughter Mingyu to her to pick preserves. The two of them can make money. Anyway, they can live. Let it go."
"Where's Aunt Yan?"
"Her mother, after you left, she went to Mingwan's place and cried and begged several times. She rolled around and wanted to live with Mingwan. How could she eat this? The door didn't let her in. I heard that I went outside the city to find Mrs. Fan again, but I don't know if I found it. Anyway, I came back in less than two days. I found the small yard that Third Aunt Liu bought together. I wanted to squeeze in and was swayed out by the fourth sister-law Qian with a stick. Anyway, I was sad for a while. Later, I heard that Yueting followed a businessman from the south. The two followed them to the south to enjoy their happiness. Sister Zhang vaguely said the details and only said something general. Li Xiaoyao sighed, lowered her head and drank half a cup of tea without asking much. She turned the topic with a smile: "Speaking of this clan, I heard that how many daughters-in-law in the village are pregnant?"
"No! One will be born at the end of this month. It's really fast!" Sister Zhang laughed, and Li Xiaoyao said, "We also have to have ethnic studies. In a few years, there will be more children, and we can't all go to other people's homes to study. Anyway, this is not an urgent matter. When the Seventh Lady enters the door, we will leave this matter to Shuisheng Brother and the Seventh Lady to take care of it. Only the two of them can take care of this matter. You don' Literacy, Brother Erhuai said that he had read, but he didn't know how many he could read, big brother••••••• Such a detailed matter of impatience••••• This child's enlightenment is the most important thing. You must get a talented and virtuous gentleman, otherwise it will delay the child. Sister Zhang clapped her hands heavily and smiled, "I said that Xiao Wu is thoughtful! The second brother himself is a scholar. He is in charge of this clan, and he doesn't have to hire a gentleman! This time, when I saw the grandson of Third Aunt Liu's study, I was still worried. You and Erhuai are not literate! Both of them are illiterate. Can't the child be blinded in the future? This is good•••••”
"This is a long-term plan, not only for ethnic studies, but also for the matter of sacrificing the field. First, I will do the marriage of the aquatic brother. Next, I will do these two major things, choose a good school for the ethnic school, set up the land for worship, and then buy enough sacrifice fields. There are many things to do, and strive for the beginning of spring tomorrow. It has been done before. Ethnic studies and sacrifices to the field, even if they raid the family, there is no official. This is the foundation of the family. After this foundation is laid, there is nothing to worry about whether our family advances or retreats in the future. This is the foundation of establishing a family. Li Xiaoyao smiled slightly and his voice was low. He spoke slowly as if he was talking to Sister Zhang, as if he was talking to himself. Mother Zhang's face changed greatly. Looking at Li Xiaoyao, his heart rose with a strong uneasiness.
