Chapter 127 Wrong gift? (two more)

11 month 26 day.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, every household in Lushan Village is buying new year's goods and cleaning.In the past, they wanted to break a penny into two pennies to spend, but this year is different. Most of them have some spare money at home because they work for Su Yueling, and they are willing to cut a catty of meat back.

Among them, the whole family who got the three-spindle spinning wheel because of their good performance was even more beaming.Speaking of which, there are currently thirteen households in the village who own this spinning wheel and the Zhang Li family who owned it the earliest.The Zhang family is one of them.

Zhao Peng, the man of Zhao Qian's family, took one back for his wife because he was willing to do his best and helped the Yuan family find good materials.A few days ago, Mrs. Zhao Qian went to the city to buy dyed yarn and come back to spin cloth, in order to make new clothes for the whole family before the Chinese New Year.

Her daughter is very sensible. When she was spinning, she took care of the housework and cleaned it neatly inside and out.

"Mother, take a break. You have been suffering for several days, you are exhausted." Zhao Qian's daughter, Zhao Xiaoyue, poured a glass of warm water for her mother to drink.

Mrs. Zhao Qian said: "I'm not tired. This spinning wheel is stepped on by feet. It's easy. It can be finished in another hour. This piece of cloth can make you a new red dress. My Xiaoyue will definitely wear it after wearing it." very nice."

After a few years, she will buy more yarn and come back, and the spun cloth can be sold in the city.

Although she said she wasn't tired, after all, even if she was much more relaxed than before, she still couldn't really not be tired.

She stopped, took a few sips of the water handed by her daughter, and found that the water was still sweet.

"You put sugar cubes in the water?"

Zhao Xiaoyue pursed her lips and smiled, "I went to buy it in the city yesterday, it's sweet." Her mother has worked hard these days, so she should eat some sweets.Zhao Xiaoyue regretted that she didn't study weaving well with her mother before, her hands and feet were not as neat as her mother's, otherwise she could help now.

But it's not too late to start practicing after the year.

"This spinning wheel is really good, mother, why don't we buy one in the next year? I asked Baoshu, and she said that the carpenter will start selling it in the next year, and it will be sold to our village first." She said in a tone. With a touch of pride, "We people in Lushan Village invented this."

Although Su Yueling used to be from the city, now Lushan Village already treats her as one of her own.

Although two liang of silver is expensive, the Zhao family can't afford it, and the money will be earned back in a few months by spinning more cloth.

Zhao Qianshi nodded, "Your father and I talked about this yesterday, I must buy you one, and mother will teach you when the time comes, so don't cry tired." After the daughter is married, she can still bring it As a dowry, don't mention how beautiful it is.

Zhao Xiaoyue stuck out her tongue, "I don't know how to do it." She is willing to make money no matter how tired she is.

Mrs. Zhao Qian asked her about the purchase of new year's goods again, and kept nodding while listening.As for her husband and son, both of them have gone into the mountains to cut firewood, so prepare more firewood.Looking at the weather, it will snow in a few days.

Halfway through the conversation, a knock on the door was suddenly heard.

Zhao Xiaoyue went to open the door, and found the servants of the Yuan family, A Wu and Xiao Qiao, standing outside the door.

Xiaoqiao put a basket at the door, "Madam asked me to bring it to you, and said it was a year-end bonus."

Zhao Xiaoyue was a little confused, and subconsciously repeated the words that were unfamiliar to her, "Year-end award?"

"Yes, it is to reward you for your hard work in the past few months." Xiaoqiao explained, and said: "I will have to work hard for you again in the coming year."

After hearing this, Zhao Qian was surprised and delighted, "Isn't Yue Ling's house almost built? Will we still be needed next year?"

If there is a job, they would like to keep doing it.

Song Xiaoqiao nodded, "Yes, Madam wants to build a road to the county town in the coming year. Brother Awu and I have to send the next family off, so let's go first."

After saying this, she and A Wu left, pushed the cart to the next house, and there were large baskets on the cart.For these gifts alone, they have been preparing for a long time.

The cold wind blew into the house, making Zhao Xiaoyue shiver. She brought the basket in and closed the door.

Zhao Qianshi was still thinking about what Song Xiaoqiao said just now.Will Yueling want to build roads next year?From the village to the county seat?That's a big project. The road from the village to the county is at least eight miles. How much money will it cost?
At this moment, she heard an exclamation, "Mother! Sister-in-law Yue Ling sent a lot of good things!"

"Pork, salt, rice, flour, tea... oh my god, there is white sugar!! Am I mistaken? Is this silk? Mother, come and touch it."

Zhao Qian came back to his senses, and quickly looked down.

The pork seemed to weigh one catty, the salt weighed two catties, and the rice bag, which she picked up, weighed almost five catties, and the flour was the same.Next to the two packs of tea is a small bag of white sugar.And what the daughter carefully held in her hand was a foot of silk. The silk was pink and bright in color, as if it would glow.

Zhao Qian's hand lightly touched the cloth, showing a dazed expression, "It's really silk! Did the Yuan family send the wrong gift?"

She knows that silk is very expensive, so it costs a tael of silver to say the least.Usually they are reluctant to buy at all, even before the Chinese New Year, at most they buy fine cotton cloth.This silk plus other presents, I am afraid that the total will be two taels.The silk was so light and soft that she didn't dare to touch it too much, for fear that her rough hands would damage the silk.Where can people of their status wear this?

Zhao Qian said: "I have to go to the Yuan family, they must have given the wrong gift."

If it is sent by mistake, the Yuan family has to take it away.That silk looks expensive.

She went out in a hurry, but found that she was not the only one who did this. After asking, she found out that everyone had received the same gifts. The difference was in the color of the silk.Pink, teal, blue, everything.

"Yue Ling also sent silk to your family?"

"Yes, mine is beige, what about yours?"

"My house is red, and the color is bright. I still have white sugar in my house, which is the kind of sugar that costs several taels per catty in the city."

"I have them too."

While everyone was communicating, they soon arrived at the gate of Yuan's house.

Mrs. Zhao Qian said to old man Sheng, the concierge of the Yuan family: "Old Sheng, go in and ask Yue Ling if she gave her the wrong gift? Why is she giving us white sugar and silk?"

Old man Sheng was wearing a thick jacket, and after hearing this, he said, "I'll go in and ask the master."

Not long after, he came out and said to Zhao Qianshi and others.

"My wife said that the things were delivered correctly. Those are for you."

There was an uproar at the scene.
