The growth of the eldest daughter-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 76 Divided into

As the weather gradually cooled, Zhao Yunlan went to the carpenter in the town to order [-] more molds and came back, intending to make more for storage.Zhao Yunlan and Li Mingmei make soap at home every day. Now that the temperature is not so high, the soap can solidify faster and use less ice.

Zhao Yunlan had already delivered the agreed 60 yuan soap to the town.

Zhao Yunlan went to Zhaojiagou to ask Jiang's side to start making soap. Zhao Yunlan arranged for Jiang's side to make some unscented soap.

According to the feedback from shopkeeper Wu, some male customers want to use soap without fragrance.This is also convenient for Jiang, and there is one less process.Zhao Yunlan brought five more molds for Jiang, and Jiang will be in charge of unscented laundry soap from now on.

The busy days passed day by day, Zhao Yunlan went to Liu's small courtyard to deliver new soap to Mrs. Wang.

When Mrs. Wang knew that Zhao Yunlan was coming, she was overjoyed: "Oh, you are busy every day. I haven't seen you for a long time. I feel that you have lost weight."

When Zhao Yunlan heard it, she was quite happy: "Really?"

Mrs. Wang said: "Hey, it's better to be fatter and look better."

Zhao Yunlan chuckled: "Old lady, how do you use the soap you sent last time?"

Mrs. Wang: "It's good after washing. It smells like flowers, but the old man doesn't like it. He thinks it's too fragrant. I said he has a dog's nose, but I think the fragrance is just right."

Zhao Yunlan collected opinions: "I sent new soaps to the old lady this time. This one has no fragrance, and the other one has fragrance."

Mrs. Wang: "You are interested, let me go to the yard again. The sweet-scented osmanthus in this yard is blooming, and it is very fragrant."

As soon as Zhao Yunlan entered the door, she smelled the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, and wanted to ask where it came from, so Mrs. Wang mentioned it.

Zhao Yunlan followed Mrs. Wang to the yard, and a strong scent of sweet-scented osmanthus lingered on the tip of her nose. She suddenly thought of making a new sweet-scented osmanthus scent.

Mrs. Wang looked at Zhao Yunlan's small eyes, and knew what the little lady was thinking.Then he said: "There is also an osmanthus tree over there in our old house. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, some of them are harvested and used to make sweet-scented osmanthus wine and make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. Just like that, a lot of them are dropped on the ground. If you want to, you can smash some later." Bring back."

Zhao Yunlan was grateful in her heart, and thought that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon, so she didn't refuse: "Thank you, Mrs. Wang."

Zhao Yunlan happily took a bag of sweet-scented osmanthus and left the small courtyard of Liu's family, and went to Qingyabuzhuang.Today I am going to settle the share with shopkeeper Wu. I should have gotten the money a few days earlier. Zhao Yunlan is busy at home and has never had time to come to town.

Zhao Yunlan found that shopkeeper Wu was always cheerful.

"Ms. Zhao, when you came, you still brought in the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus." Shopkeeper Wu said.

Zhao Yunlan handed over the bundle in her hand, indicating that it was the sweet-scented osmanthus in her hand.

Zhao Yunlan: "Please shopkeeper Wu to help find some sweet-scented osmanthus trees, the best blooming ones these days."

Shopkeeper Wu understood Zhao Yunlan's intentions and promised to help find it as soon as possible.

When the two came to the main room in the backyard, they began to settle this month's share.A total of 130 four pieces of soap, 67 pieces of laundry soap and 67 pieces of scented soap, Zhao Yunlan accounted for 400%, which was directly divided into more than 68 taels, after deducting the 360 taels for buying lard, flowers, and ice cubes, Zhao Yunlan forgot This time I earned [-] taels.

Shopkeeper Wu smiled: "Thanks to Mrs. Zhao, the business of our cloth shop is getting better and better."

Zhao Yunlan waved her hand, looked at the white money and said happily: "Where is it me, it's the shopkeeper Wu who manages well."

Shopkeeper Wu's current cloth shop has indeed taken a step forward in the prefecture and county towns. Shopkeeper Wu doesn't value the share with Zhao Yunlan at all. He just wants to use this soap to open up his own cloth business. Of course, he can make money along the way. A little cash is fine too.

Shopkeeper Wu saw that it was inconvenient for Zhao Yunlan to carry so much silver, so he suggested that Zhao Yunlan take it and deposit it in a bank to exchange it for bank notes.

Zhao Yunlan thought it was pretty good, but after thinking about it, she decided to share it with Li Mingmei. Zhao Yunlan calculated the share in her heart. Li Mingmei made 80 of them this time. After deducting the money spent on buying lard in the early stage, Li Mingmei could share the money. When it reached 200 taels of silver, Zhao Yunlan saved [-] taels in the bank and exchanged it for bank notes.

Shopkeeper Wu sent several bolts of good fabric as a gift for the Mid-Autumn Festival.Someone helped deliver the cloth to Liji Hot and Sour Rice Noodles. After Zhao Yunlan and shopkeeper Wu said goodbye, they went to the shop.

Li Mingyi saw: "Sister-in-law, you are here, what are these cloths?"

Zhao Yunlan: "The Mid-autumn gift from shopkeeper Wu, let's close the shop early today, and go back together later, Mingli, after a while you're busy, go buy some pork ribs and a pig's trotter."

Li Mingli was collecting the money while answering Zhao Yunlan.

Zhao Yunlan took advantage of this moment to go to the only jewelry store in this town, wanting to buy some jewelry.

As soon as Zhao Yunlan entered, the shopkeeper greeted her, "What does this lady want to buy?"

Zhao Yunlan: "I want to buy some jewelry for my mother, sister-in-law and younger sister. I don't know if the shopkeeper has any introductions."

When the shopkeeper heard this, a big buyer came, with a brighter smile on his face than before.The jewelry shop in this town is like this, there are no people on weekdays, unless it is a wedding, so the shopkeeper doesn't even hire a waiter.

The shopkeeper brought several bracelets and hairpins to Zhao Yunlan. Zhao Yunlan saw that the jewelry shop was almost full of silver jewelry, with less gold jewelry and simple styles, so she didn't choose much.There were silver bracelets of the same weight for the two mothers, a silver hairpin for the sister-in-law, and a pair of silver earrings for Mingmei.

The shopkeeper wrapped it up for Zhao Yunlan with a happy smile, and sent Zhao Yunlan warmly at the door: "Lady, come and visit next time." Zhao Yunlan didn't pay back the price the whole time, and even thought it was cheap. The total cost was only 18 taels, and she happily agreed : "I'll come again when there are new styles." It feels like a rich woman shopping.

Zhao Yunlan went to buy some tea leaves again, made good wine, and bought everything that was needed at home, and even bought freshly baked lotus seed paste mooncakes.

When Li Mingli found it, Zhao Yunlan's hands were full, and she was sweating profusely from exhaustion.Li Mingli quickly took it over: "Sister-in-law, why did you buy so many things?"

Zhao Yunlan: "Good news! Let's go back quickly."

Li Mingyi let little brother Wang go on Mid-Autumn Festival for a few days, and then the three of them drove the carriage back to Li's Village.

Old man Li looked at Zhao Yunlan's load of things again, shook his head and sighed.Wang said beside him: "What are you doing like this, you can have fun after enjoying the blessing!"

Old man Li was choked and speechless.Li Mingren was secretly laughing beside him.

The whole family was sitting in the main room, Zhao Yunlan said: "There are two more days until the Mid-Autumn Festival, I bought some things and came back to have a good Mid-Autumn Festival."

The brothers are all happy.

Until Zhao Yunlan took out the jewelry: "Mother, little sister, I bought a gadget for you two."

Zhao Yunlan opened the box and took out the bracelet and earrings: "Mother, try it, and you should try it too, little sister."

Old man Li and the Li family brothers were stunned.Xiaobao was cheerful, looking at the beautiful bracelet: "Mother, Xiaobao wants it too."

Only then did Zhao Yunlan remember that she forgot to buy a long-life lock for Xiaobao.

"Xiaobao, mother will send you off next time!"

Xiao Bao nodded obediently, hugged Zhao Yunlan and did not let go.

Wang's heart was happy, but she still felt sorry for Zhao Yunlan and said: "Mother usually doesn't wear these, and you still spend this money."

Zhao Yunlan said: "Mom, it doesn't cost any money. I bought one for my mother too. You two are my good mothers, little sister. Hurry up and try it on. There will be good things waiting for you in a while."

Li Mingmei was very happy, knowing that it was going to be divided, she rubbed her hands nervously.
