Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!
Chapter 161 Excellent job!
Chapter 161 Excellent job!
Yang Lihua was not a fool. How could a good person die in the woodshed? It was definitely not simple, but she would not question it.
She would listen to whatever Mrs. Min said, just a few words of comfort occasionally.
Human nature is complex. When Mrs. Min did something evil, she felt happy but also had an indelible fear in her heart, but more importantly, she felt proud.
She didn't know how many nights she spent hating Aunt Liu, hating her for giving birth to her eldest son, and hating her for being favored by the master.
Now that Aunt Liu is dead, she is still alive. This is her victory!
But she couldn't show a trace of these words and this kind of pride at home. Now she could show a little bit to Yang Lihua, an unrelated peasant woman.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she felt a little regretful.
Fortunately, Yang Lihua was very "simple" and did not guess what was wrong at all.
She felt relieved a little, and then opened the double-layered box. Inside the box was a set of red gold and ruby jewelry, including hairpins, hairpins, bracelets, and rings.
The bright golden color is extremely dazzling, obviously very precious.
"Lihua, it's all thanks to you and Zhuzhu that this birthday banquet went smoothly without embarrassing me and our Min family. I thought about it, and I'm afraid you won't be able to ask for anything I prepare for you.
"That's why I chose this set of jewelry. Please accept it. When Zhuzhu gets married in the future, this set of jewelry will definitely add luster to her marriage!"
"No, this is too expensive!" Yang Lihua quickly declined without any pretense.
Regardless of the cost of making this set of jewelry, the gold and gemstones used are probably worth 200 taels!
"Madam, I was just doing a favor, and I wasn't sure if it was the fragrant cake's fault at the time. It was really reckless. I'm lucky that I didn't get into trouble, but I don't dare accept such an expensive thank you gift!"
Yang Lihua kept pushing the box to Mrs. Min, determined not to accept it.
Mrs. Min was even more insistent and pushed the box back again.
"No, Lihua. This jewelry is for Zhuzhu. It means I'm prepping for her wedding. You don't have to want it, but Zhuzhu must have it! Otherwise, I'll feel bad and have to find other things to send again. Why is it necessary? Push it back and forth, take it quickly!
"If you think it's valuable and you get something new at home in the future, just give me some more. The game meat and wild vegetables from before, as well as the bag of corn seeds, are all good things!"
Yang Lihua had no choice but to stand up and salute when she saw that she really couldn't push him out.
"Thank you madam, I'll accept it for Zhuzhu."
"Oh, that's right." Mrs. Min was very happy and took out another 200 taels of silver notes from the dark layer of the box. Before she could say anything, Yang Lihua was already anxious.
"Madam, I've already taken care of it, this won't work!"
Mrs. Min quickly waved her hand, "Listen to me, this is wages!"
Yang Lihua was stunned for a moment, then slowly withdrew her blocking hand, "Madam, our family hasn't received any work lately?"
Mrs. Min smiled and said, "I have to say I'm sorry, Lihua. I took over a job for you privately. There was a squire in the next county whose old mother celebrated her 66th birthday. The squire's wife wanted to embroider a Guanyin. Birthday gift.
"It happened that the niece of the squire's wife was also at my birthday party that day. After she returned home, she talked about embroidering a double-sided fan, so she asked me to do it. The squire's wife is willing to pay 200 taels for the wages. Please embroider a two-foot fan. Guanyin statue.
"I heard that this job is not difficult, and it should be very suitable for you, so I took it upon myself to do it for you. Do you think it can be embroidered?"
As she spoke, she motioned to the maid to open the package.Inside the package was fine pure Tencel satin, which was a full foot long. Against the sunlight coming through the window, with a slight movement, the satin looked like silvery water ripples, which was extremely beautiful.
The rest are all embroidery threads of different colors and materials, totaling six boxes. There is also a box of embroidery needles of different sizes, each of which is polished smooth and delicate.
Yang Lihua was immediately attracted and couldn't help but step forward to look at the satin, embroidery thread and embroidery needles.
"This satin is so good. Even in the south of the Yangtze River, you may not be able to find much. It would take the best weavers half a year to weave one! And this embroidery thread, the colors are so full, it looks like a two-foot-long Guanyin statue. There’s simply no way to use it up.”
Mrs. Min also stepped forward to play with it, laughing and chatting, "I heard that this satin is the dowry of the squire's wife. If it weren't my mother-in-law's 66th birthday this time, she would be reluctant to take it out. And the squire's wife said that this satin and The needle and thread are at your disposal, and any leftovers are yours.
"I estimate that the remaining things are enough to make a small Kang screen or something like that. From now on, Zhuzhu will be taught arithmetic, so I can just put it on the table for her."
Yang Lihua thought carefully for a long time, and responded seriously, "Thank you madam, I will take this job... In addition, please madam, please help me bring a message to my employer. Since it is an old man's birthday gift, I will embroider Guanyin while embroidering Birthday Lord, please give me a good meaning."
"Seriously?" Mrs. Min hesitated, "Double-sided embroidery is naturally the best, but won't it take too much effort?"
"No, three months should be enough." Yang Lihua smiled confidently, "The wages offered by the employer are too high. Since I have accepted them, I must be worthy of the high price of 200 taels."
"You, I saw it right, you are a down-to-earth person!" Mrs. Min nodded repeatedly, but still said, "In this case, I won't send a message to the squire's family first, and then I will give them a surprise!"
Naturally, Yang Lihua would not refute. The two of them checked the satin and needlework again to make sure there were no defects, and Yang Lihua carefully put them away.
At this time, Chunhong came in and said, "Auntie, lunch is ready. Second Aunt asked where to set the dining table?"
Yang Lihua responded, "The weather is nice today, why not put it on the stone table in the yard."
Chunhong responded and quickly retreated.
Soon, Liu Dongniang brought a tray and food from the kitchen in front.
Behind her were Zhuzhu and Miss Min.
Zhuzhu was swinging her short legs upside down, and as soon as she walked in the door she shouted, "Mom, mother, it's time to eat, Zhuzhu is so hungry!"
Although Miss Min did not speak, her face was rosy, sweat stains were faintly visible on her forehead, and her eyes were full of smiles, showing that she was having a great time.
Only Sesame Ball, who finally ran across the threshold, stuck out his tongue...
Women are the most terrifying creatures in the world, especially young ones, bar none!
He is a majestic mastiff, the overlord of the grassland, but his hair is tied in pigtails and a red head rope, and he has to run around picking up sachets!
It’s so tiring!
Yang Lihua was hugged by her daughter. When she looked at Miss Min and Sesame Ball, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Zhuzhu, take the little sister to wash her hands, okay? We'll have dinner soon!"
After that, she called Chunhong again, "Go and bring the bowl of bones on the stove to Sesame Ball. I'm afraid he's exhausted. Give him some warm water."
Sesame Ball immediately screamed happily, her hard work finally paid off!
Mrs. Min was surprised and said with a smile, "Oh, this puppy can actually understand human speech?"
