Pastoral affairs

Steward Lin weighed it for a while, then looked at it in his hand, and said involuntarily: "The material is a bit poor, but this pattern is really cute, Madam might like it, especially Miss, if you use this as a gift for others , It’s also rare!” After he finished speaking, a smile appeared on his face, and while stroking Cui Wei’s head, he said: “Little girl, you are a shrewd person, and I won’t take advantage of you for nothing. I'll go ask Madam for you, I can't tell Madam is good for you, then you can just make me something else, I don't need this bright color." Such a festive color, except Master, not everyone in the Lin family can use it.

After steward Lin said this, he asked Cui Wei and his sister to wait for a while, and he simply took the things on her table, went out and called a little girl to come in to wait on him, and he went out with the handkerchief, pillow and other things.

These situations were completely expected by Cui Wei. Seeing that Steward Lin liked it, she was naturally not surprised. Instead, she picked a stool and sat down, beckoning Cui Jingping to sit on it. Not long after, someone brought a plate of pastries over. Cui Jingping was drooling looking at the pastry, but he didn't reach out to take a piece, and said softly to Cui Wei: "Sister, you came in alone in such a place last time, it's a pity that you didn't get scared, I see that Manager Lin is worse than Dad Be majestic."

What Cui Jingping was most afraid of was Cui Shifu. Seeing Guanshi Lin now, he felt a little guilty, so he naturally compared the two.When the little girl standing in the room over there heard this, she couldn't help but covered her mouth and laughed.Cui Jingping blushed slightly, lowered his head and did not speak.Cui Wei could tell that the little girl was not malicious.Therefore, she was not angry, and it was rare to see Cui Jingping's shy appearance, and she couldn't help but also laughed.

At the beginning, Cui Jingping still couldn't let go, but after a long time, he saw that although everything in this house was much more exquisite than his own, the little girl guarding the house didn't seem to be a vicious one, so his courage gradually grew. When he got up, he wanted to eat pastry for a long time, and once he let go of his hands and feet, he would no longer be restrained.Naturally, he stretched out his hand and squeezed a piece into his mouth. The two brothers and sisters sat in the hall for about two quarters of an hour, and that steward Lin came back again, but when he came back, he no longer had the silk that Cui Wei had given him. He was holding a small bag, with a smile on his face as soon as he came back.He handed the things in his hand to Cui Wei, and said with a smile: "Little girl, you are lucky, the lady and the lady like the things you gave, this is a reward for you, and there will be some really good satin later. You go back and make five more sets of these things, and the rest of the satin will be rewarded by Madam!"

Since Manager Lin said that there is still enough satin to make five sets, it must be more than one or two feet. Cui Wei couldn't help smiling, and quickly grabbed the bag and gave a blessing to Manager Lin.Cui Wei could tell that the bag in her hand was silver, and it might be quite a lot, at least compared to the two taels of silver last time, the things in the bag were much larger.It seemed that there were others, and this trip was beyond Cui Wei's expectation.Manager Lin probably was also busy, so he smiled again, and finally when someone sent Cui Wei out, he gave her another silver bean, but said that in the future, Cui Wei would send some shredded fungus and bananas when she went to the market. Not every time, but a month's money.

Even so, Cui Wei is very happy. After all, there are only two or three times a month. Even if you come here every time, you will get two taels of silver for a few meals. One day in the future, Master Lin's family will get tired of eating Things, Cui Wei can be regarded as a small profit, so naturally she is even more happy, mentioning a large bag of silk on the ground, Cui Wei touched the silver on her body, saluted Lin Guanshi, and brought another bag before leaving. The cakes wrapped by the Lin family, the brother and sister left the Lin mansion.

Now that there is money in the bag, Cui Wei is not petty. Seeing Cui Jingping walking all the way, he is tired. When they see snacks on the road, they buy him a lot. Cui Jingping never goes to the market. Today is so happy, although Yang dotes on him, but the family situation is there, even if he has money in his pocket, he can buy him a piece of pastry at most. It's not like now, it's just what he wants to eat, Cui Wei just eats it. Buy it for him, without him even saying, he has already paid for it when he saw Cui Wei.It cost less than twenty copper coins to buy all the way.

The time agreed with Nie Qiuwen and the others was almost up. When the two brothers and sisters came to the noodle shop, Nie Qiuwen and the others were already waiting there. It was probably because Cui Wei didn’t give Chen’s pastries last time. Their eyes were piercing, Cui Wei didn't take it seriously, and invited Nie Qiuwen and others to eat a bowl of noodles, and everyone played in the street for a while, seeing that it was getting late, they were ready to go home.

It's getting late now, and many people in the village have already returned from the market. Cui Wei went to Li's house to settle the copper coins, and then agreed to ask him to make more coins, so that she could use them to build a house. With smiles all over their faces, the Li family left the Li family.In the room, Mrs. Yang and the others have already returned, but their faces are a bit ugly. Seeing them next to them, the duck was sold, but Mrs. Yang didn’t smile at all. Cui Jingping was clever and pulled Cui Wei into the room. At that time, he called Yang Shi with a smile on his face, "Mother, have you come back so early?"

"It's still early? We'll have lunch soon!" Seeing that the person speaking was her beloved son, Yang didn't force a smile, but didn't even look at Cui Wei, her eyes were on her back Turning around in the strap on his back, he snorted coldly.Standing at the door, Mrs. Wang glanced at Cui Wei with treacherous eyebrows, Cui Wei sneered, greeted Cui Shifu, put down the back strap, took out the green cloth inside and smiled at Cui Shifu: "Father!" , I bought some cloth today to make clothes for you and third brother, do you like this color?"

Seeing that it was just green cloth, Mrs. Wang sighed in disappointment, but when she heard what Cui Wei said, she glanced at Cui Jinghuai, and let out a piercing laugh: "Husband, look, You love the fourth girl so much, but when they have money, they don’t think of you!" Originally, Wang wanted to provoke the relationship between Cui Jinghuai and Cui Wei, but after she finished speaking, she felt something was wrong, and said quickly: "You How much did you sell for this trip? You can even afford the cloth." As soon as Wang's words fell, Yang's eyebrows twitched, and he followed suit.

Cui Wei sneered, and without waiting for Cui Shifu to speak, she narrowed her eyes and glanced at Mrs. Wang: "How much money I sold, what's the matter with my sister-in-law? Besides, I will naturally have something for him in the future, if my sister-in-law is really free It’s all right, let’s just wash the clothes!” As soon as Wang spoke, she was blocked, and when she heard that Cui Wei still asked herself to do something, she was furious, but before she could speak, Cui Shifu laughed: "Why do you buy these for me, as long as there are clothes to wear, there is no need to buy new ones, your house still costs money, I see this cloth is good, just sell it to others, I am afraid I can get dozens of coppers Son, it’s easy to pay the stone money.”

"Don't worry, Dad, I've already paid the stone money, and I'm giving you this cloth." After Cui Wei finished speaking, seeing Cui Shifu's appearance of opening her mouth, she quickly picked up the back strap and was about to go into the house. The Yang family on the other end was depressed. He was half dead, even knowing that the stone money was paid by Cui Wei, and he didn't have to pay for it, he was not happy. Seeing that his son was going to follow his daughter into the house, he hurriedly called Cui Jingping, but Cui Wei didn't hear it behind his back. Zhisheng, Cui Jingping is very clever, there is no need for her to tell him, Yang can't get him to talk.

Now that the stone money has been settled, Cui Shifu and his son simply lost their farm work for a few days, helping Cui Wei to quickly complete the fence.If it wasn't for Yang's not being allowed to invite people, I'm afraid the family would move faster. Seeing that it was almost time to harvest the rice, Cui Wei simply invited some people to build a house for her. The Li family didn't have enough stones. , she went to the next village to buy some more, so that the house was knocked down and rebuilt faster.Seeing such a scene, Yang felt jealous. She didn't know where her daughter got so much money to hire someone to do things, but even though she searched all over Cui Wei's bed, she couldn't find half a coin. , I don't know where this dead girl is hiding. Yang's relationship with Cui Wei is very bad now, even if she wants to ask her to hand over the money, it is not easy to open her mouth again.

Taking advantage of her free time, Cui Wei went up to the mountain to pick some fungus and bananas. It can be seen that the story of her selling fungus in the previous market was spread in the village. Recently, there are obviously many more people going up the mountain. The fungus has been picked almost by others. Fortunately, Cui Wei picked a lot of bananas and kept them at home. No one went to cut the bananas for a while. Cui Wei moved some more home, covered them together, and was busy all day long. The satin given by the Lin family was made into five pieces of pillow handkerchiefs with unique styles. This time, it was not just as simple as embroidering cute and cute bunnies on the pillows. Cui Wei simply drew a big animal, and then cut the cloth She looked like an animal, like a puppet in her previous life, which naturally surprised the Lin family and rewarded her with a small silver coin.

Calculated now, Cui Wei has more than eight taels of silver in her hands. Apart from the two taels she got the first time, the Lin family rewarded two taels of silver beans later, and the last time they gave satin If Cui Wei hadn't spent some money on building the house later, I'm afraid the money on hand would have been exchanged for ten or so taels.

By the end of June, the house was about to be done. The grandeur did not look like the dilapidated house before. Although it was not as luxurious as the Lin Mansion, it was still high walls, red tiles and blue bricks. This can be regarded as the most beautiful house in Xiaowan Village. (To be continued.
