MTL - The Landlord And His Wife-Chapter 90 : A profitable business?

When Liu Changgeng entered the room, Liu Changqi was talking to the old man Liu, Liu Gao was sitting by the kang, and Liu Changshi was standing on the ground.

what's going on? No more contact in the future? This New Year is not back, not even a word.

I went yesterday, and today Liu Changgeng came to hear the situation.

"I heard that the house was newly bought, and it is much better than the one I just went to live in. It is a single-family house. The third and third families wear silk and satin clothes. There is a little girl who just kept her head next to the third family, and she says she is a maid." Liu Changqi introduced the situation.

The old man Liu frowned and said, "I didn't ask the third child, why didn't he come back during the New Year? Are you planning to recognize me and his mother? What's wrong with us pulling him up? As for…”

Before he finished speaking, Liu Gao snorted coldly: "Don't blame the third one! They are very busy now, they came back last year to sell the land, and spent the second half of the year in Shandong. Now! He didn't come back at all, and people even told him that he had sent a letter to his house, but who knows that it didn't come!"

Old man Liu never expected this to happen, and was stunned for a while. Liu Changgeng and Liu Changshi were also dumbfounded.

Liu Changqi said: "The third family said, I thought they would always look for it at home, but I already told my neighbors, and I told my family when I called them, but who knew they didn't even know? ..." He sneered and shook his head: "It's because we didn't go to his house."

The old man Liu asked strangely: "What are you going to do in Shandong? Are you staying for so long? Where do you have relatives? Where do you live?"

"Isn't Jia's little uncle running a boat from Shandong! As for what he does, I asked, and they just said it was business, and they didn't say much. , I'm packing up and I'm coming back to see us." Liu Gao was full of resentment, and his tone was full of sarcasm: "This is really a coincidence and can't be a coincidence!"

Liu Changgeng said: "What business is it? Did he also follow the boat? Then Jia's younger uncle...is rich in boating, and the third one follows?"

"Who knows." Liu Changqi wondered: "But this man is too rich, and that mansion, I heard that it costs about one hundred taels of silver! This is also... It's amazing!"

Liu Changgeng and Liu Changshi also feel amazing! When the family was first separated, what was the family background of the third family? At most, there are ten or twenty hangings more than them. Now... why do you wear gold and silver all of a sudden, and live in a big mansion?

Even if Liu Changshi made a trip to Ningxia, he only earned fifty taels.

I had a meal, but the third daughter-in-law didn’t come out in the back room. That little girl came to serve me for dinner! I kept asking the youngest what the business was, but I didn’t say. If I asked too much, the third daughter-in-law in the back room would be in chaos Cough! Protect me like a thief. The third child doesn't say anything, just says it's nice, that he should write a few more letters, how many people should send messages, I didn't expect the family to know... It's all nonsense When I came out, they even gave me 2 taels of silver, saying it was my filial piety! I pushed him away."

Old man Liu nodded for a long time: "You're right, you can't ask for this money... Do you still have someone from the third family's family in that family?"

Liu Gao shook his head: "No."

After a long while, the old man Liu nodded: "That's it."

The matter of Liu Changgui is a little clearer, but why is the whole family more depressed? I always feel like this thing is... ghostly?

The brothers comforted Liu Laohan and Liu Gao for a while before they came out.

Liu Changgeng shook his head and asked Liu Changqi for the address of the third child in the city. When he next entered the city, he thought of calling the third child out to ask.

"You'd better carry the third daughter-in-law behind your back and ask the third child what's going on? Is it controlled by someone? There was something I wanted to say to him today, but the third daughter-in-law kept staring at him, and she never found a chance to say, if you can call the third one out alone, tell him that it wasn't because everyone didn't go to him last year, he came back to sell the land ... I made my father and mother so angry, my family was angry, and they didn't go to him before the anger subsided. In fact, during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, my father was talking about him."

Liu Changqi told Liu Changgeng the address and a few words.

Liu Changgeng nodded: "Okay, I understand." He turned around, saw Liu Changshi coming out, and called: "Fourth, where is the place where you built the house? Lead me and eldest brother. go and see."

Liu Changshi wanted to discuss this matter with his brothers today, but he just heard what his mother said, and felt that it was inappropriate to say it now, just as Liu Changgeng asked, he nodded and said: "Okay. , let's go and see."

Come here and pass by their house.

"This place was originally lived by my grandfather, and the land is also in our father's name. I want to build a house or build it on our own land, so as not to have any trouble in the future. Liren, in case you come back... I can't tell." Liu Changshi said.

Liu Changgeng and Liu Changquan both nodded: "Yes, if you build your own house, of course you have to build it on your own land."

It's been ten years.

Saying that, they all squatted on the side of the road and looked at the land to discuss.

"The green brick house is actually more convenient than the adobe. It's easy to buy bricks. It doesn't take time for the adobe, and it will be up in half a month at most!" Liu Changqi said: "Start now, just before the spring ploughing. Finish."

Liu Changshi hurriedly said: "I don't want to be in such a hurry, let's build it during the slack month of July."

Liu Changgeng smiled: "Why, are you in a hurry to marry a wife?"

Liu Changshi's face turned red, and he said: "I told my parents that the marriage is scheduled for next year... Why do I go to He's house for a year, and Ruyu is still doing it. As for the embroidery work, I don't want to worry too much... and I haven't found a suitable one yet."

Liu Changgeng nodded: "It's right to think so! Don't appear to be in a hurry, it will make people feel that we don't respect her daughter, let's do things beautifully! Right, brother ?" Turning to ask Liu Changqi.

Liu Changqi nodded of course: "Look at Yuan Hao, although he married Liu Hong a few years ago, but during the Chinese New Year, he gave his parents a lot of gifts, and we are not short of that. Li, beautifully run to He's house for a year and earn face for her parents."

The willow feldspar nodded.

"Then it's settled. In July, the farmers will be slack to build a house! When the time comes, we will discuss how the brothers will pay." Liu Changgeng said.

Liu Changshi hurriedly said: "No no no! You don't need to pay! This time you don't need to build a house and marry a wife!"

Liu Changgeng saw that Liu Changshi didn't answer, so he didn't say any more. After all, his home is better now, who knows how big brother's home is? Besides, even if the elder brother's family is good, the elder sister-in-law...

Liu Changqi saw that Liu Changgeng and Liu Changshi only said a word and didn't say anything. Knowing that he was worried about himself, he paused and sighed: "I regret it too, I shouldn't have said it before. ...Oh, forget it, don't talk about it, let's talk about these things." He got up.

The two brothers also got up and went home after they agreed.

Liu Changgeng went home and told Mr. He that Liu Xuer was listening next to him, and he was also very surprised, what business can the third uncle and aunt do? Besides, no matter what business, isn’t it all about making money gradually? How can there be a pie in the sky? Isn't that all going to be done?

I don't understand after thinking about it, so I don't have to worry about it. He went back to her parents' house again, and finally decided that He Ruyu would start embroidering handkerchiefs now, and all the money for selling handkerchiefs would be hers. He Shi smiled again and asked He Ruyu if he was busy? Dowry embroidery too!

He Ruyu blushed and lowered her head silently. Regarding the embroidered handkerchief, she knew that it was the kindness of the eldest sister and Xiao Xu'er, and she helped her to pull it out. The family was not too polite, so she made up her mind to make two clothes for Xu'er.

The first batch of colorful silk thread and hooked animals made by He's two younger brothers and sisters has come out. It was very early to tell them, and they have never received the goods. My sister-in-law has two divisions of labor. The clumsy hand makes colorful silk threads, and the nimble hand hooks small animal pendants. I have done a lot in the past few months. Shi was very happy to get the goods, but he forgot to discuss with Liu Xuer at home, should he give the money first, or wait for it to be sold?

All of a sudden to pay half the money. The two sisters are divided according to the difference in what they do.

He's sister-in-law didn't expect the eldest aunt to be so simple, and this thing really makes money like this! All at once all came to the spirit. With the remaining threads in their hands, Mr. He told them to go to the city and buy them according to such threads, and then went back.

Liu Xuer was very happy when she saw that her mother had brought back so many goods this time, but now she is worried that the supply of goods cannot keep up. After listening to Mr. He, the aunt also agreed to embroider the handkerchief, which made him even more happy. I asked my father to take her to the city the next day, and it happened that I also rushed out a batch of them and sent them together, buying raw materials.

I went to the city to meet Shicheng, Willow Willow Forest, all of them were fine, everyone was busy. In a few days, Shicheng's house will have full moon wine, and everyone in the village has been invited, so he didn't say much, and when everyone came back, he said slowly,

When Liu Xuer and his father Liu Changgeng returned home, they were still busy.

A few days later, brother Shicheng's full moon wine arrived. Shi Qian also wanted to take this opportunity to let the villagers see the pomp of his home, of course, not to show off, but to give the villagers a little excess, so he moved to the city, and then let go of his hands and feet to do business, First of all, the villagers will not feel so abrupt.
