The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 79
"Fifth sister, do you want to go back to eat candy, don't you? Fourth sister also wants to eat it." Siwa thought of the gift box in the room and understood it in seconds, walked steadily with Ye Shiqi in her arms, and went back to their bedroom.

"Si Ya, be careful not to drop your sister."

Li was worried that the fourth baby could not hold the fifth baby. Looking at her actions, she felt that her worry was unnecessary. It seemed that she missed the details of the children's growth when she was away from home. The fourth baby has done so well. became a good sister.

There are many complex emotions in Li's eyes, the guilt of missing the children's growth, and the shame of making the children suffer.

"Wait for me, I'm going to play in your room too." Tang Shunyan trotted, came to Siwa's side, and followed her into their bedroom.

The maid in Tang Mansion wanted to prevent Tang Shunyan from entering that poor and shabby room.

"Little boy, don't go in!"

"You go outside and guard, don't follow in, I have a lot to say to the little sisters." Tang Shunyan glared at the maid.

"Didn't you hear what the young master said? Guard in their room."

The housekeeper felt that the two girls inside could not hurt Tang Shunyan. They looked so sensible and hoped that the young master would interact with smart children. This was his personal intention, and of course he would tell the host about the situation when he returned.

Seeing this point, Mrs. Li asked her husband, the three daughters had gone to the fields.

I looked at the adults at home with a very distressed look. They were all at home, but they let a few children go out to work.

She blamed not only her husband, but herself more, why she was so weak, it was her weakness that caused the children to suffer so much.

They were about to pick up their three daughters when they saw each of them carrying a basket of weeds into the yard. people in the yard.

"Da Ya, Er Ya, San Ya, my good dolls, come in and let mother see you."

"Mother, are you back?"

"Mother, I miss you so much."

"Mother, it's great that you're back."

Daya and her two younger sisters ran to Li's side, looking eager for mother's love.

"Che, it's so dirty..." Xiuzhi looked at the dolls beside Li's with disgust, and saw that their hands and clothes were dirty.

"Look at them? Will there be bugs on their heads?" Mai Zhi also looked at the dolls beside Li Shi with disgust.

"Be quiet, the host is here." Jufeng glanced at the adults in the host's family.

"What are you afraid of? Originally it was dirty..." Xiuzhi was the most resentful to the Li family, and seized the opportunity to be unforgiving.

"Don't say a few words. These children are very sensible. They work at such a young age, but the adults in the family don't work."

Mrs. Pan said to the two maids that she came here for the second time and knew more about Li's family.

"Deserving it, Li's useless mother makes her child so hard." Xiuzhi said again.

The others did not reply to her words, but looked at the people in the main family. The men in the main family seemed to have heard them talking, and their faces were red and they wanted to say it but were too embarrassed to say it.

The women of the main family stared at them with eyes, especially the two women who were not married.

Ye Shuzhi and Ye Shuzhen's ears were flexible, and they watched their mother enter the room to put away the gifts, and even heard someone speak ill of their family.

Staring at these women, I felt that they were so gossipy at such a young age that they were no different from three aunts and six grandmothers.

The clothes the two sisters wore were coarse cotton-padded clothes, and they were envious of the maid's clothes in front of them, and the maid's clothes were better than theirs.

Even when her sister-in-law is a wet nurse, she dresses better than them.

Lai Shi didn't care to go outside to greet the guests, and now he looked through the gifts and found a place to lock the gifts.

Acer greeted the housekeeper and guards, and could only entertain them with boiled water.

Daddy Acer sat with him, and occasionally smoked a few bamboo cigarettes.

The housekeeper was curious about the father and son in front of him because the children in the past few months were able to carve such a good toy, and asked them questions about their daily lives.

"Brother, do your father and son usually make money by carpentry?"

Acer listened to the butler's question and said honestly:
"Yes, when we took over the work in the village, it was people from other villages or towns who asked us to make furniture, some sent materials, and some let us pay for the materials ourselves. Before the farming was busy, we finished the previous work and finished it. After that, I want to make a dowry for my second sister.

"Oh, why haven't I seen you make other furniture?"

"Yeah! It was supposed to be furniture. Have you seen those wooden heads? I thought of selling some money for carving wooden Bodhisattva statues, toys, etc., and releasing my second sister's dowry work for others to do."

"Oh, do you make a wooden Bodhisattva statue? Is there a version? Can you show it to me?" The butler was interested in what Acer said about the wooden Bodhisattva statue. He has been following the master for a long time and has a little business acumen.

With a little bit of trouble, you can feel that a profitable business is coming.

"During this time, people come to order every day. I don't have enough carved wooden heads to sell. Look at what I carved this morning. I haven't had time to polish and paint."

Acer picked up a carved wooden Buddha statue to show the housekeeper.

"This is the wooden Buddha statue? How much do you sell it to others?"

"It's very cheap to sell to the villagers. We just charged handmade money, [-] yuan for a Bodhisattva statue."

The housekeeper listened to Acer's words and made a calculation in his heart. If such a statue was sold in their jewelry store, it would definitely be sold at a high price. The handicraft is good, but it is a pity that it is made of ordinary wood .

The housekeeper has other ideas, but this idea can only be decided after discussing it with the master, so he listened to Acer's tone and said:

"If we ask you to carve a wooden statue, and give you some better wooden statues, we will give you wages at that time. Would you be willing to take such work?"

"You produce wood? I carve as a part-time job for you?"

"Yes, we will give you a higher price at that time, which is definitely higher than the price you sell several times a day for carving now."

"It can be picked up, but you handed us such good wood, we are afraid that it will be stolen at home."

Acer honestly expressed his thoughts in his heart. There are not many thieves in this village, but it is difficult to ensure that no bandits will come down the mountain to loot elsewhere.

"It's just an intention to tell you now. When I go back and discuss it with the master, I will make a decision. When the time comes, I will tell you how to do it, but if you let you carve the wood, it will definitely not be done at home. Our unique factory location there.”

The housekeeper didn't want to miss such a good business opportunity, but he couldn't make up his own mind. Everything had to be approved by the Tang family.
