MTL - The Landlord And His Wife-Chapter 42 : Restocked

Liu Xuer is also quickly calculating in her heart, nine taels of silver, four taels first, and five taels left, these are enough to buy the things that you just thought about, of course, it is best If you can have one or two remaining, the family must have money to make a bottom line! If you run out of food and drink, you can't stop it.

Liu Changgeng thought about it, since the child wants to do it, then continue to do these little things, anyway, the money is still earned by her! Besides, it is best for children to have ideas, and they are much more sensible than others who only run around and play!

He nodded: "Okay, how about just as Xuer said?" He looked at Mrs. He.

Of course, Mr. He felt more feasible than him, and nodded immediately: "Okay, that's it."

Liu Xuer saw that her parents agreed, she was very happy, and said: "If you agree, then I can do what I want, mother, you can put away five taels of money, Four taels to pay off the bill, one tael to keep for home use, give me four taels first, and when Shicheng and the others enter the city, I will go shopping with them.”

Although He's and Liu Changgeng agreed, they obviously didn't think about it seriously, so they were surprised when they heard her words: "Entering the city again?!"

Liu Xuer pointed her finger and said: "Of course, the hand covering the child is not for nothing, the previous is because the aunt left some fabrics and silk threads here, now If you want to make things, don't you want to buy these? Otherwise, what do you do?"

Liu Changgeng thought about it after listening to it: "Let's go again after the new year, today is a young year... After the new year, your mother's legs should be healed, then ask her to take you there ."

Liu Xuer immediately shook her head: "After the new year, the market will not be open on the street for a while and a half, and it will not be open until the fifteenth! Mother just sits on the kang and has nothing to do, so buy these things How good is it to hurry up when you come back? If you want to delay it until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, you will have nothing to do for nearly a month, mother, your feet are inconvenient, and you can’t be busy during the New Year, right? Besides,” she looked at with a smile Liu Changgeng: "Father, you can't be idle either! I've already thought about it, you have to make something for me too!"

Liu Changgeng lost his voice: "What? What can I do?!"

Liu Lin laughed beside him hahaha: "Can Dad embroider?"

He laughed 'pochi'.

Liu Shu listened to Liu Xuer's words earnestly, not laughing, but pondering.

Liu Xuer smiled and said: "Second brother, don't laugh! Dad, did you think about it, one year, the little wooden fish you made for me and my brothers on the Dragon Boat Festival? Fingers So big, and a little mallet?"

Liu Changgeng thought about it for a while, as if he had done something like that, and asked strangely: "Yeah, how can it be? Do you want me to do that?"

Little catkins nodded heavily and said with a smile: "Yes! I've made up my mind, you've made the little wooden fish and the little mallet, and I'll tie them together, it's a good wear. After the Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, and Dragon Boat Festival, we all pay attention to wearing something. We can't prepare it at that time, or we can make a few at that time. It's definitely good."

Liu Changgeng was a little surprised at this moment, looked at Liu Xuer and said in surprise: "Xu'er... How did you come up with this little head?"

He also nodded in surprise: "Yes! Who taught you this? How can you think of this?"

Liu Xuer pretended not to care: "No one taught me, I used to want a gadget like that, but I know it's valuable, let's I couldn't afford it, so when I learned from Aunt Shi, I decided to make one for myself and wear it during the Dragon Boat Festival... that's how I came up with it!"

She was addicted to what she said, and continued to say to Mrs He: "Mother, don't you have to bring colorful silk threads during the Lichun and Dragon Boat Festivals? To keep things safe? I plan to buy more silk threads, Let's do more when we come back, and put them in the shop before the beginning of spring and the Dragon Boat Festival to sell... Think about it, how many solar terms and festivals are there in a year, and a lot of such gadgets! Let's start to make spring and summer solar terms now, When the slack season comes in the middle of the year, you can do autumn and winter solar terms, how wonderful!"

The whole family looked at her in surprise! He murmured: "These... how did you come up with these?"

Liu Changgeng also repeated in surprise: "You said you have something in your little head..."

Liu Xuer smiled and stuck her tongue out in her heart. In fact, she didn't want to say these things that a child could not say, but if the plan was to be implemented, she had to let her family understand and explain it to them, Dad. Mother can only allow her to use her money and cooperate with her to do some things. I don't think it's nonsense... She really can't do these things alone!

So I still smiled as carelessly as I did just now: "I just figured it out myself, I used to want to wear multicolored silk threads... I have been thinking about it for a while, and I have been thinking about how I can wear it for a long time."

He felt sad again after hearing this. Liu Changgeng nodded. Anyway, the child had already said it, and he would never think of anything else, so he nodded and said, "Okay! Just as you said. Do it! Now you are the master of our family!"

Liu Xuer sneered.

He also smiled, reached out and patted Liu Changgeng.

Liu Lin, who had been silent for a while, finally had the opportunity to ask, "Xu'er, what am I doing?"

Liu Xuer laughed: "You? Farm!"

"What?!" Liu Lin suddenly wilted.

Liu Xuer's 'pochi' smile: "You can't be idle, and I can't think of it now, but when the time comes, you and eldest brother must be very busy."

The willow tree nodded: "Yeah, it doesn't have to be settled, there are many things at home."

The leftovers were brought back, and the egg custard steamed for Liu Sen was brought back, and a small half bowl of corn paste was scooped, and Mr. He fed Liu Sen to eat.

No one came over there in Xiaonian, and I don’t know what to talk about. Mrs. He got off the kang and moved around to pack up the lunch. In fact, Mrs. Liu Gao gave all of it yesterday. It's ready, as long as it's hot.

Lunch and dinner are quite hearty. Recently, a series of things happened, so that Mr. He is no longer just staring at the food in front of him. He always thinks that there is not enough food to save.

After the new year, on the 24th day of cleaning the house, Liu Xuer went to Shicheng, Shicheng said that the 25th was the last episode of the county, and his mother must be going, and Liu Xuer said I discussed it with my family and said I was going to buy something.

Shicheng of course agreed, and on the 25th, Liu Xuer and Liu Shu got up early to Shicheng's house.

Now they are a little familiar with the city, they greeted Uncle Shi and Aunt Shi, climbed into the car, and followed the Shicheng family into the city.

Shi Chengniang was surprised when she heard about her hand covering her child. After asking all the way, Liu Xuer had to start with her aunt’s embroidery skills. She thanked Shi Cheng again and again, she was still pretending Cheng didn't know that the shop belonged to the Shi family, he only said that Shicheng helped to make peace with the shopkeeper and borrowed Aunt Shi's name. Don't be angry with Uncle Shi and Aunt Shi.

Shicheng's parents were not angry, but Shicheng's mother asked about her aunt, and also about the embroidered handkerchief. I heard that it was embroidered by an ancient family, so she smiled and said nothing.

When they arrived in the city, Shi Cheng's father still asked Uncle Quan to lead Liu Shu and Liu Xu'er around, and told him to take care of it, don't lose it, their family of three went around.

Shi Cheng was reluctant to hear it, he also wanted to see what Liu Xuer bought, and he also wanted to give some advice, not to mention that he still had a lot of things to discuss with Liu Xuer, so he was grinding His parents are going to follow Liu Shu and Liu Xuer. Shi Chengniang began to disagree, but she couldn't stand Shi Cheng's constant discussions.

Shi Cheng leaned on his father's ear and bit his ear again, saying that since we are going to open a shop like plain silk handkerchief after the new year, then I should go look at others earlier What's your home like! It just so happened that Liu Xuer went to such a store to buy things today, and went to see how the business of other people's stores was doing. Come back and tell Dad!

As soon as Shi Cheng's father heard that it made sense, he also told Shi Cheng's mother that they came to the city today to buy things for the Chinese New Year, such as fabrics, melon seeds, dried fruits and so on. It's boring, it's better to ask the Liushu brothers and sisters to play with them.

When Shi Chengniang heard it, she could only agree, and she had to ask one of her own wife to follow the young master, and watch the people with Uncle Quan, don't run away.

So they parted ways and went their separate ways to buy their own things.

Liu Xuer thought about what she needed to buy last night, for fear of falling, she even took a charred piece of wood and wrote it on the back of the book Shicheng gave her. Because this time, if I forgot to buy it, I would have to wait until the fifteenth day to come back, but at that time, the items sold on the street may not be complete.

I bought five taels of red, green, yellow, pink, and blue five-color silk threads. This kind of ordinary silk thread is not expensive. One or two threads are ten cents. Liu Xuer also picked five taels of brown and red silk. This makes a total of thirty-two silk threads. It took two hundred and eighty yuan.

This kind of silk thread is not suitable for embroidery, it can only be woven with a little thin tassels, so the shop owner did not expect such a big customer suddenly, Shicheng bargained with him, and he was happy too I gave twenty cents. Xu'er also asked for a black silk thread.

Get out of the silk thread shop and go to the city. The needle and thread shop that sells better, silk cloth, handkerchief silk silk, and thick and medium silk thread for weaving silk tie knots are only available in the city. The shop has.

, The person doesn't look very deep, but it doesn't work. Liu Xu'er was actually quite guilty. This was the first time she had spent so much money, and she didn't know if what she thought was true or not... Anyway, if it couldn't be done, she just pretended not to sell it. !

In the end, I can only try to comfort myself.
