A few more days passed.
Qingyan Town welcomed its first snowfall this year.
The snow is falling in the sky, giving it an ethereal feeling.
Zhong Chuchu was wearing a thick shawl and a furry scarf around her neck, huddled next to the stove.
Xiaobao is kneading clay beside him.
She bought this for two cents at the Almighty Mall.
The colorful ultra-light clay is very popular with Xiaobao.
The little guy made a lot of shapes.
There is an elder brother, a mother, a black cloud, and a little chicken.
Although he was very satisfied, Zhong Chuchu still did not hesitate to praise him.
"Mom, what do you think dad looks like?"
Xiaobao looked at her innocently.
"I want to create another daddy, so that our family of four can be neat and tidy!"
She didn't know how to answer this. To be honest, her impression of Lin Huairen was very vague.
"Your father, he is what my brother will look like when he grows up!"
The little guy nodded half understanding.
She smiled lightly and said, "Xiaobao, you are growing up so fast. Look at you, your sleeves are too short. Mother will make you new clothes these days, okay?"
Xiaobao put down the clay in his hand and said obediently: "Mother, I don't want to make new clothes, make them for mother!"
"Let's do it for my brother. He needs to stay warm while he studies."
The little guy looked so cute, which made her heart melt.
"Okay, let's make new clothes for the whole family, okay?"
"Hmm~"
At noon, Zhong Chuchu was cooking in the kitchen.
During this time, she rarely went out, and there were few places selling fresh vegetables in the town.
Almost every household eats pickles made before winter.
So she simply didn't go out and bought some fresh vegetables at the Almighty Mall every day.
The prices are not expensive, a pound of potatoes costs four cents, and a pound of peppers costs three cents, which are about the same as the prices in the city where she originally lived.
Xiaobao is still young and doesn't care about the source of these things.
This little guy eats whatever she does and is not picky about food at all.
Just as she was putting the potatoes into the pot to fry, Hao Yong's voice sounded outside the house again.
"Dong dong dong..."
"Ms. Zhong, are you at home?"
Zhong Chuchu wiped her hands and went out to open the door.
"Master Hao, why are you in such a hurry?"
Hao Yong said with a smile on his face: "I'm here to give you money."
After speaking, he took out a cloth bag from his arms, which looked bulging.
"Here, this is for you."
He handed over the cloth bag and continued: "I have negotiated with the shopkeeper of Dongfeng Teahouse according to the price I discussed with you before."
"A copper pot costs 99 cents, and he ordered fifty."
"That's 950 Wen."
"I promise to give you one-tenth, which is 490 five cents."
Zhong Chuchu took the money bag, which was heavy and needless to be counted. Master Hao was an honest man.
"Master Hao, take advantage of this period when the temperature drops sharply to make more inventory."
She thought for a while and said:
"Since the shopkeeper of the teahouse has ordered so many copper pots, I think they will launch related dishes in the store in a few days."
"In this way, the copper pot will definitely become famous, and there will definitely be a lot of people buying it."
"If you are lucky and meet merchants from other places, you may even purchase in large quantities."
After saying this, Hao Yong understood immediately.
"I see, but..."
"But it's still a bit cramped for me to do it alone. There is a limit to what one person can do." He frowned. This was the big problem that had been bothering him recently.
In the past, when business was slow, I didn't think it was a big deal. I knew how much work I had to do in a day, and I still had time to rest after I finished it.
But during this period, he often stayed up late to catch up on goods. Although he made money, he felt tired.
Zhong Chuchu nodded, she also knew that this was a big problem.
It would be great if it could be produced like a modern assembly line.
But this can only be thought of. It is not realistic to build an assembly line now.
Then we can only recruit people.
She told Hao Yong this idea, and Hao Yong's eyes suddenly lit up.
"The method you mentioned still doesn't work."
"We can't get into the blacksmith profession for a while, and ordinary people can't do this job."
Having said this, he paused:
"However, I can invite my senior brothers to come back and do it together. They all learned blacksmithing from my father before."
"It's just that later on, many of them stopped doing this business, but the skills are still there!"
When Zhong Chuchu heard this, she thought this was a good idea!
Since we are brothers, we don’t have to worry about others stealing the skills from us, and we can use them with confidence if we know the basics.
Hao Yong solved the big problem and was busy going back to greet these brothers without stopping too much.
After he left, Zhong Chuchu happily returned to the room carrying the money bag.
She was in a good mood and even made lunch that was much more delicious.
It's been snowing heavily all morning, and it still shows no sign of stopping.
Lu Ruyi has been staying at Ge's house for a few days. It's snowing today, so she has to prepare to go home before the road is frozen.
The little girl reluctantly stepped onto the carriage, holding an exquisite carved huanghuali wooden box in her hand.
Her nose and ears were red from the cold, and coupled with her chubby little face, the little girl looked even more delicate and cute.
Ge Xingzhou, Dabao and Lu Xiu came to see them off.
During this time, Lu Ruyi always came to play with Ge Xingzhou. As time went by, he naturally became familiar with Dabao.
The children were similar in age, but they got along quickly.
"I'm leaving! Remember to visit me in the county when you have time." Lu Ruyi opened the carriage curtain with one hand and turned around and said.
"Brother, if you take a break, go home as soon as possible. Don't let your parents worry."
Lu Xiu nodded with a doting look on his face: "I understand, you should set off quickly. When the snow gets heavier and heavier, it will be difficult to leave."
Lu Ruyi knew that her brother was right, so she got into the carriage.
Opening the curtains: "Ge Xingzhou, Lin Jin, you must keep your word! Remember to play with me."
The two nodded.
After Lu Ruyi left, Lu Xiu asked Dabao: "Lin Jin, does the wintersweet ointment you sell really have so many repeat customers?"
Dabao nodded proudly: "Of course, the things made by my mother are naturally the best."
"You're right!"
He asked Ge Xingzhou.
"Yeah! It's indeed a wonderful thing!"
Ge Xingzhou said without thinking.
How could something made by his godmother be bad?
The three of them returned to the academy together. Lu Xiu couldn't help but be curious and bought two boxes.
He wanted to see what was so magical about it.
Lu Ruyi took a nap on the carriage for a while, and arrived home just before Youxing day.
As soon as he got home, a beautiful woman wearing a crimson silk skirt with large sleeves and a round neck and a golden tassel hairpin in her hair came out.
"Ruyi, you must have had a hard time on this journey. Come in with mother quickly. It's warm in the house."
Mrs. Lu is almost forty years old, but her face does not reveal her actual age. She looks more like she is in her 30s.
If you don't know her, you might not guess that she is now a mother of four children.
The eldest son of the Lu family is already twenty-one this year, and the second son is also eighteen, in his prime.
The third son, Lu Xiu, and the fourth young lady, Lu Ruyi, are twins.
She also had a son in middle age and was her only daughter, so she loved him very much.
