farmer's husband

Chapter 54 Daughter-in-law is better than my own
When Chun Zhi just lay down, she was still planning secretly in her heart, and when Chai Dong fell asleep and didn't know anything, she would steal the purse back from under his pillow!
It's just that she was too tired, and it didn't take long for her head to touch the pillow, and her mind became drowsy, and then she fell asleep.When she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn!

Looking at Chai Dong again, her little husband-in-law has already tidied up, and his pale and tender face is slightly tense again, showing a serious and dignified manner.

Chun Zhi hastily stretched out her hand to touch under his pillow—it was empty under the pillow, so how could there be a shadow of a purse?
"Where's my purse?" She quickly got up, Chai Dong.

Chai Dong didn't answer, but urged her instead. "Get up quickly. There are a lot of things today, if you don't get up to work again, mother should come and scold you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang's cry rang out in the yard outside.

"Mom, we're up!" Chai Dong hurriedly responded, and then turned to wink at her.

Chunzhi gritted his teeth with hatred again.

How come in the end, everything is just like her being unreasonable, but he has become a good person who covers her stealing and cheating, and helps her tide over the difficulties?
But no matter how uncomfortable she felt, she didn't dare to delay, she quickly got up, dressed and combed her hair, made the bed, and then went out to sweep the floor.When she went out, Chai Dong had already gone out to fetch water with a bucket.

After tidying up the house, Mrs. Wang also made breakfast.After the family ate briefly, Mrs. Wang brought out her basket again. "Go, let's go to the street!"

There are still two handkerchiefs that she embroidered yesterday in the basket!
Today, Mrs. Wang is going out to meet people with her first batch of finished products!Chunzhi suddenly felt ashamed as if the ugly daughter-in-law was about to meet her in-laws.

Today is the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, and there is a big market in the town, so there are many people in the village who go to the market.Wang's face has always been thick, so before she left the village, she had already caught a family who was about to leave the village, and pushed Chai Dong and Chun Zhi into the bullock cart of this family.

Sitting in an ox cart saves the hard work of your feet.When they got to the town, they were still in good spirits.

Getting off the car at the gate of the town, the three of them went to the silk thread shop first.

The proprietress of the silk thread shop was already waiting for them with her neck stretched out at the door.It was so easy to see Mrs. Wang, she hurried over and dragged Mrs. Wang inside: "Sister, you are here! I am still worried today, if you come later, people will come to my shop to see , what you bring can’t be sold!”

"How is it possible? No matter how late I come, my things will definitely be sold. You just say that in all these places, who makes better things than mine?" Mrs. Wang said angrily, and put the basket into the basket. She stuffed it in her hand, "This is my family's needlework this month, take a look!"

"Okay!" The proprietress hurriedly called her man to come forward and look at the shop, and she led the Wangs into the back.

After taking out the handkerchief and purse inside and looking at them one by one, the proprietress nodded. "Not bad, it's still the same as usual... No, why are these two different?"

Chun Zhi's heart skipped a beat immediately!
Isn't the proprietress holding the two handkerchiefs she embroidered?

Wang pouted. "Oh, these two, this is made by my daughter-in-law. I think her handicraft is not bad, so I gave her two handkerchiefs to practice. Ma'am, you can give a price according to what you see. If it's really not good, we don't have to If you want to sell it, you can take it home and play with it yourself.”

"So it was your daughter-in-law who did the work!" The proprietress suddenly realized, she quickly lifted up the two handkerchiefs and looked at them carefully, "Well, the embroidery method is still a little immature, but it can be regarded as easy to see. I will try to put it out, maybe it can be sold. However, her craftsmanship is still far behind that of your elder sister, so I definitely can’t give you the price. But for your sake, I won’t bargain with you anymore. Just a penny and a dollar! What do you think?"

What a penny!Chunzhi was so excited that he really wanted to nod his head and say yes!
But when Wang heard this, she frowned. "Just one piece? Although my daughter-in-law here is not as good at embroidery as I am, she has also used needlework since she was a child. Look at the fine stitches. How many girls in Shitong Town can have such good craftsmanship? These color schemes are also good. That's right, it's also very eye-catching when placed there. You don't have to try to sell it, I'll tell you, you just need to put it out, keep it and you can sell it today!"

Hearing what she said, the corners of Chun Zhi's mouth couldn't help twitching.

It turns out that I still have something to show for it!These days, Mrs. Wang has been picking her nose and eyes. She almost forgot that she also learned needlework from her mother Zhu since she was a child!
The proprietress actually nodded in agreement with Mrs. Wang's words. "Sister, you are right, but you also need to know that in our place, girls will embroider a few stitches, and they buy handkerchiefs for fun and good looks. As long as the patterns on them are good-looking, it is enough, and it is only a few pennies. , who cares if the stitches are tight or not? She is worth a penny now, so I didn't yell at you!"

"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Wang nodded reluctantly, "I'll sell it to you for a penny this time. But next time you come back, you have to raise the price for us!"

"As long as her workmanship is better next time, I'll definitely go up!" The proprietress nodded quickly, and gave Chun Zhi another look. Coincidentally, it's only been a few months since I entered the house, and I can already embroider handkerchiefs! My little girl, I have watched her do needlework since I was a child, and her craftsmanship is just like that, not as good as your daughter-in-law!"

"That's needless to say? This is my son's daughter-in-law!" Wang immediately raised her chin high and said proudly.

Even though he scolded Chun Zhi bloody every day at home, he could pick out countless mistakes from Chun Zhi with his mouth.But on the outside, the daughter-in-law is better than her own, and no other daughter-in-law can compare!
Does this mean that her mother-in-law already treats her as her own family?
Chunzhi heard it in her ears, and she was excited and happy.

The proprietress heard this, but the corners of her eyes twitched, and she quickly lowered her head: "Okay, I'll get you money right now."

At first, I thought that I had already said that about my daughter, and Wang would belittle her daughter-in-law a few words, and then praise her daughter!In the end, who knows, she didn't take the usual path at all, and even praised her daughter-in-law even louder!

Hey, she should have thought of that earlier.With a person like Wang, how could she praise others?I really miscalculated.

Because of the Chinese New Year, they brought relatively few things. Including Chun Zhi's two handkerchiefs, they sold a total of 65 copper coins.

Wang counted the amount as usual, put the money in her bosom, and took Chun Zhi and Chai Dong out.

It was almost noon now, and many people from Xiatou Village had already arrived.The main road was full of people coming and going, and even at the entrance of the silk thread shop, someone had set up a stall selling some gadgets and snacks.

Seeing them coming out of the silk thread shop, these people quickly greeted them warmly.Chun Zhi also fell in love with the small jewelry stall in front of him at a glance.There's actually nothing good on it, just some copper-clad hairpins, and cheap earrings and bracelets and the like.But for Chun Zhi, who is bald on her ears, head and arms, these things are already attractive enough to her!
She even couldn't help but moved two steps over there.

But before she could take a second look, Mrs. Wang had already pulled her back. "What are you looking at, don't look at it! Those cheap things are not good things, and they will hurt you if you carry them! You might as well wait for my son to make a fortune and ask him to spend real money to buy you a good set. Jewelry, that’s good-looking and decent. Let’s forget about these things!”

The jewelry salesman was not happy when he heard this. "Elder sister, what are you talking about? I'm not willing to spend money to buy things for my daughter-in-law and just say it. Why are you saying that my things are not good? My things are famous in Shitong Town! At least half of the girls and wives in this town buy what they wear from me!"

"Then we must be the other half." Wang said coolly.

The shopkeeper was suddenly choked and speechless.

Chun Zhi quickly turned his head away.

here we go again.Every time when she came to the town, Mrs. Wang seemed to be a different person, her mouth was sharper than before, and the words she said didn't sound like a single swear word, but the combination of those words hurt people more than swear words!
Seeing that the salesman was about to roll up his sleeves and come over to beat him up, Chun Zhi quickly pulled Wang Shi over. "Okay mother, I don't want it anymore, and I don't want it anymore in the future, let's go!"

It's a big holiday, she doesn't want Mrs. Wang to get into trouble with others again.

Quickly winking at Chai Dong, the two of them helped Wang Shi from left to right, and ran quickly with their feet up.
