The Landlord And His Wife

    Back from the old house and walked back, Liu Changshi carried Liu Changgeng on his back, Liu Changgeng pushed back for a long time, saying that he could walk back slowly, but the family was worried about him walking around like this Yes, it would be troublesome if his feet were good, so Liu Changshi still carried him back.

    I returned to my house, and when Liu Changshi left, Liu Changgeng asked what was going on in the courtyard just now, Liu Lin jumped out and said loudly, but Liu Changgeng listened and didn’t say anything. What, just nodded.

    No one came on the first day of the first lunar month. Although there were firecrackers outside, the house was very quiet. Little chicken, look at the little rabbit, go talk to this one in each house, and make trouble for that one.

    My favorite is to come to Liu Xuer's house. I can't make trouble for Liu Xuer until the end, so I can only go to the kitchen to warm him a bowl of chicken soup and cook a few dumplings inside.

    Liu Sen started eating here, and then Liu Xuer continued.

      People of the same age who are close to each other. But those who came to see Liu Changgeng avoided He's being on the kang, while those who came to see He avoided Liu Changgeng's being on the kang. Most of them simply said a couple of New Year's greetings and left.

    It was Liu Shu who led Liu Lin and Catkins out to the elders in the village, and Li Zheng went to pay New Year's homage.

    The villagers all expressed their understanding and praised the willow trees and willow forests for their understanding.

    When Liu Xuer went to pay New Year's greetings to Shi Chengniang, she also brought a few gadgets she made, all of which were tied with knots, and also weaved a few sashes to take Show her.

    Shicheng Niang was very pleasantly surprised, she said that she did a good job, and the shop where she worked as a small worker in Shicheng tried to sell it, it should be able to sell well.

    Liu Xuer was very happy to hear this, but her confidence increased a lot.

    Shicheng sent her out, and told her that the interior of the shop had been repaired recently, and the shelves of the containers had been built by craftsmen. The shop can be opened around the beginning of spring in early February.

      There is no shopkeeper on the side, there is only one young man Chen, who says he is my relative and is in charge. I can make suggestions on everything about the store, including how to arrange the goods, the types of purchases..."

    Shicheng said, and said to her again: "As soon as the fifteenth day of the first lunar month passes, I will go to the city to watch the repair of the shop, and you should also hurry up with your things, how many can you display? How much."

    Liu Xuer listened and said: "I still want to rent a cabinet, I can make up my own mind about renting a cabinet, and there are a lot of things, I can do whatever I want..."

    Shicheng nodded before she could finish her sentence: "I guessed that you still want to rent a cabinet by yourself. I have already asked my father and thought about it, one or two cabinets a month. rent."

    Liu Xuer is afraid that he will try his best to favor himself. In that case, his business can't last long, and he can't rely on people forever, right? ! Therefore, seeing his business-like appearance now, he is relieved, but he is still a little hesitant for one tael of silver a month.

      Hooked silk thread, calf, etc., and some of the more expensive ones in the middle should also be made, such as those knots, cinnamons, sashes, and other expensive things that you brought today, but these things Do less, just do a few things. For example, the rabbit hair wipes the forehead, the hand covers the child, it is still three taels of silver, and if you sell one every month, you will have everything."

    Liu Xuer nodded: "I understand, just as you said... I did it first, my mother did two, and I did two each. , it’s enough, I don’t need too much, and it’s not necessarily whether it can be sold, but those little bits and pieces of pendant stuff, do more and hope to sell more.”

    Shicheng nodded heavily: "This idea is right! Also, you negotiate the price with your family, give me a price that can float, and give me something that can move, I It’s so casual, for example, if someone buys a handbag, I will give them an embroidered handkerchief.”

    Liu Xuer nodded: "No problem! When I give you something, I will fix it all!"

    Shicheng was also involved with the shop during this period of time, and thought of a lot of tricks for her. At this time, she said one by one, and Liu Xuer was also reminded a lot.

    Go back and prepare according to the negotiation.

    He can walk around on the ground now, and his feet are a little lame because he can't exert too much force for the time being, while Liu Changgeng is slowly rubbing off the kang.

      Second, let's go to the school in the county seat. If there is a teacher who can teach the children in the countryside to read and write, he will ask Liu Shu and Liu Lin to study at any time. Third, nature is the most important, go and see the shop. Mainly to see what the counter that Liu Xuer wants to rent looks like.

    This matter was also decided according to Liu Xuer's intention. From the beginning, because this matter was Liu Xuer's work, and she also did it, bought three hands to cover the child, so Liu Xuer Chang Geng and He's subconsciously listened to Liu Xuer's meaning on this matter.

    Liu Xuer also often moves Shicheng and his father out, saying that this is Shicheng's idea, and Shicheng's father also thinks it's good... Wait, once you say this, it's very useful.

    This side of the old house.

    Liu Hong is sitting in the room, sitting beside the kang embroidering the wedding dress, the mattress surface for the dowry, the quilt surface, the pillow case, the bed surround and so on, all of which have to be made by herself, and she has no An unmarried sister helps.

    Liu Gao was sitting on her kang and was taking the soles of her shoes. She, a mother-in-law, was not good at helping make things for the kang. She could only make two pairs of shoes for her future son-in-law. A jacket or something.

    "Both girls have been taught badly! When you were twelve or thirteen years old, you were already very sensible, doing housework, sewing and embroidery, as quiet as an adult! Like children, quarreling with younger siblings is better than Xuer being sensible!"

    Liu Gao was talking. On the first day of the first lunar month, Liu Yuner was beaten, and when everyone left, the old man Liu also complained about her. She shouldn't beat the child in front of so many people, and give the boss a lot of trouble. To save face, although Liu Gao choked a few words, he felt a little regretful in his heart.

    I've been nagging my daughter a lot these days.

    Liu Hong also knows that her mother is a little regretful, so she always has to persuade her. The mother and daughter were talking in the room when Liu Changshi's voice sounded outside: "Liu Hong? Liu Hong?"

      You made a big cut! Liu Hong, quickly sew for me!"

    Liu Hong glanced at it and said 'um': "Go and change it and I'll sew it for you."

    Liu Hong glared at him and said, "Can such a big hole be sewn with three or two stitches? Why are you talking so much when you change it?

    Liu Changshi said 'hi': "What's going on with you girl recently? You've made a kiss and your temper has fallen? Say one word and three words!"

    Liu Hong became angry all of a sudden, really angry, and turned her head: "I won't sew you!"

    Liu Changshi was also angry, turned around and went out: "Pull it down without seams!"

    Liu Gao looked at her son and daughter angrily and amusedly, stretched out her finger and nodded on Liu Hong's forehead: "I was praising you for being sensible just now, now you are just like a child Are you arguing with your brother?!" He rubbed off the kang, put on his shoes, and came out.

    I saw Liu Changshi bowing his waist to repair the pigsty door in the pigsty. The cotton jacket on his back had a big hole. Sure enough, the cotton wool leaked out. He patted him on the back: "You take it off at night and I'll sew it for you... Don't be angry with your sister. She's been busy these days, and she lost her favorite handkerchief, so she's not happy."

    Liu Changshi stood up and asked blankly, "What?" Then he suddenly remembered! With a slap on the forehead, he shouted, "Ouch! How did I forget it?!" Then he put down his tools and hurriedly went to Liu Hong's house.

    Liu Gao shook his head amusingly, and left it alone, and went back to his own room.

    Liu Changshi entered Liu Hong's room and scratched his head: "Liu Hong, have you lost a handkerchief?"

    Liu Hong lowered her head and only made a 'um', and then saw a handkerchief appear in front of her, she suddenly opened her eyes, it was the one she lost!

    She took it in surprise and looked up at Liu Changshi: "Where did you find it?"

    Liu Changshi scratched his head: "It's right at the door of my father and mother's house... What, I picked it up on the first day of the new year, and I put it in my arms and forgot..."

    Liu Hong's eyes widened again: "I only gave it to me when I saw you on the first day... You haven't noticed it for so many days?" She put it under her nose and smelled it, and immediately took it out far away: "Oh, it stinks! You you!"

    Liu Changshi said embarrassedly: "How about I wash it and return it to you?"

    Liu Hong rolled her eyes at him with anger and anger, and put the handkerchief aside: "You might as well not wash it! Brother, you also take care of yourself, you don't take a bath or change your clothes for so long, how old are you... how old are you?!"

    "You think I'm your girl?" Liu Changshi was still very reasonable, stalking his neck and said, "You don't need to boil water for a bath in such a cold day? You don't need firewood to burn water? Who is going to cut it and take it..."

    Before he finished, Liu Hong waved his hands: "Okay, okay, if you don't wash it, don't wash it... just go dirty and smelly!"
