The peasant girl who escaped the famine: pick up the leak and pick up a prince

Chapter 149 Family Status
Yu Maimai decided to let Qiao Shan stay as the leader of the embroidery work, and then lead a group of girls in the village, He Xiaowives, to start embroidery work. It would be a pity not to use such talents.

Seeing that Qiao Shan didn't need to open up wasteland now, Qiao Mai was very anxious in his heart, and stretched out his hand and said, "I, I can do woodwork and masonry, I can do it!"

Yu Maimai was surprised, why didn't she find that the two people hiding in her home were both folk artists?
"So you know how to build a house, we don't need to hire a craftsman to build a house, you can do it?" Yu Maimai said almost overjoyed.

Qiao Mai nodded: "Of course, what is this? When our brothers were in the capital, we even built the prince's mansion. What is this?"

Yu Maimai was a little surprised, looked at the two daughters-in-law, and said with some embarrassment: "So, do you adults know more?"

Qiao Shan coughed softly, pretending not to hear, but Qiao Mai continued to brag disapprovingly: "Of course, the one we hit is a general, who knows martial arts, flies all over the sky, and is on the front line, he is the God of War!"

Yu Maimai's eyes were bulging, and she suddenly thought of Li Shengwang, whom she followed before, the man who came to the house in the middle of the night, and the appearance of Concubine Liu. His life experience is even more suspicious.

Qiao Mai realized that he had slipped his mouth, and hurriedly covered his mouth, and said falteringly: "In short, we, we are all craftsmen!"

"You know the whereabouts of your lord, don't you?"

Yu Maimai stared at the two brothers of the Qiao family in front of him, instantly full of surprise.

"Okay, if that's the case, you stay here. We will all go to the market from tomorrow. Those who sell embroidery sell embroidery, and those who build houses for people build houses. In short, we divide into five groups and make money quickly. , and then we will go to the capital!"

"Go, what are you going to do in the capital?" Qiao Mai asked.

"Don't you know what we are going to do in the capital? Of course it is to support the war?"

Mrs. Zhang grabbed Qiao Shan and kissed Qiao Shan vigorously: "I really didn't expect that you are so capable and can embroider. Can you embroider a handkerchief for me first? If that's the case , no matter where I am, as long as I see this veil, I will always think of you?"

Qiao Shan blushed and said, "Isn't it just a handkerchief? As for it? From now on, you can just say what you like. As long as you want, there is nothing I can't make."

Mrs. Zhang was very proud, and her heart was pounding. If they got married, wouldn't she be the envy of all the women in the village if she had such a capable man?

While eating, Qiao Shan was still sitting on the threshold and embroidering. What he held in his hand this time were the exquisite embroidery pieces given to him by Yu Maimai. After these embroidery pieces were finished, Yu Maimai was ready to take them to the market , find a good clothing store, long-term cooperation, and then she can provide these embroidery pieces for these clothing stores.

At the dinner table, the two brothers, Qiao Shan and Qiao Mai, let go of their stomachs for the first time in days, grabbed a steamed bun and stuffed it into their mouths.

Qiao Mai was the worst eater, and he swayed while eating: "What's going on, the food is not oily at all, how can this make us work?"

But Yu Maimai did not speak, and said with a smile: "There is no oil and water, what does it mean? Doesn't this mean that our family has no income? What if there is no income, what do you think?"

Ning Shi glanced at Zhang Shi, and suddenly felt that the mother-in-law in front of her was a little different from the past. In the past, she would definitely reprimand the two brothers of the Qiao family with a sullen face. Today, she asked such a question without learning a lesson. What is she going to do?
"Make money!"

Hearing the words of the two brothers of the Qiao family, Yu Maimai couldn't help but smile and said: "In this case, you can eat with your belly open and your arms dry. Can it be done?"

"can!"

Mrs. Zhang whispered to Ning's ear and said: "Why do I feel that my mother is suddenly like a general, leading two soldiers to fight?"

But Yu Maimai glanced at Mrs. Zhang and said, "Nonsense, it's not two of you, but a group of you. We want to make money. Now as long as we have money, we won't go hungry or be bullied. You guys do you know?"

"Tomorrow, I'll take Qiao Shan and Qiao Mai to the market. The two of you stay at home and continue to dry the dried radishes!"

Ning and Zhang pouted and nodded.

"Let me tell you now, the two brothers of the Qiao family have been a family with us from now on. You can talk about what you want to eat, but you must work hard to make money, but you can't get too close to my two daughters-in-law, so as not to be gossiped by others , Of course, if you make a lot of money and have the strength, I will naturally preside over the wedding for you."

Hearing what Yu Maimai said, Qiao Shan said excitedly: "Really? As long as you agree to this matter, let us do anything?"

Qiao Mai nodded: "Okay, as long as you give us food, we have a word to say, treat us fairly in this family, whatever you want."

The next morning, Yu Maimai got up early. He thought that the 11 Qiao family brothers, who were sleeping late, would have to be called, but they didn't expect that the two of them would get up early. One was chopping firewood in the yard, and the other was sweeping the yard. The high-pitched ones are almost too bad to sing.

Yu Maimai shook her head, got up and tidied up, the sack outside contained dried radishes, which was her task for today, she weighed it, and murmured: "If these dried radishes are sold like this, it must be It can be sold for a lot of money. In the market, a catty of radishes costs 2 Wen, but this dried radish is also called wife meat, so it costs 10 Wen per catty?"

In the yard, the sky is not completely bright yet.

Qiao Shan came over, put the dried radish in the yard on the bullock cart, and said with a smile, "Should we go?"

Mrs. Zhang ran over from nowhere, holding a padded jacket in her hand, and handed it to Qiao Shan: "It's cold, put it on, don't catch a cold."

Yu Maimai was so angry that he couldn't say a word, but he scolded fiercely in his heart: "This Mrs. Zhang is really not shy. I am your mother-in-law anyway. How can I be so courteous without caring about your mother-in-law?" Is it cold, the man who only cares about you?"

Qiao Mai sat on the bullock cart, holding a whip in his hand, and said with a smile: "Today, I will drive the cart, and you should sit down."

Ning looked at the door for a long time, and found that her mother-in-law was there. Looking at the cotton coat in her hand, she hesitated for a long time but did not dare to come out.

"Oh, give it away if you want. Why are you so timid? Besides, my mother is not here now. If my lord is here, my mother must be more active than us?"
