Rebirth of the poor elder sister-in-law

Chapter 201 It's Snowing

In the blink of an eye, one-third of the twelfth lunar month has passed. This year, Ye Feng organized Ye He and Cao'er to resume their old business and write couplets for sale.

For their actions, Liu Man'er naturally agreed with her, and felt relieved in her heart, these children were really sensible.

Liu Man'er also helped to write a lot of couplets. Now that she has a big belly and she has difficulty moving, these children went to sell the couplets by themselves. Liu Man'er just lent them the handsome guy and made them a gimmick to attract people.

Now her belly is getting bigger and bigger, and it is not convenient for her to go to the market, but it is still no problem to write big characters at home. Thinking that the Chinese New Year is a good time to make money, she simply writes couplets at home, cuts window grilles, leaf lotus The others were busy embroidering handkerchiefs.

At the end of the year, the people who have worked hard for a year are always generous. Even the poorest families can afford some money to buy two couplets and hang them at the door.

During this period of time, Liu Man'er temporarily put down the writing couplets in her hands, which made Ye He feel itchy. She really wanted to read the stories Liu Man'er wrote later, but unfortunately, Liu Man'er just didn't write them.

Today is the day to go to the market. When Ye He and the others came back from selling the couplets, they saw Liu Man'er writing vigorously again, and said, "Sister-in-law, are you busy again? How tired you are from waving this big brush. Take a rest, these My third brother and I can handle it."

"Of course I know you guys can handle it, but I want to write more while it's early, and then I can release it to the county town and sell it in our shop." Liu Man'er said with a smile: "It's the Chinese New Year, and we should Do some activities, anyone who comes to buy things at the end of the year and buys goods with enough money, we will give him a pair of couplets."

"That's it." Seeing Liu Man'er had another idea, Ye He didn't stop her anymore.

Although she can also write, her handwriting is not as good-looking as Ye Feng and Liu Man'er after all, and she can only write some small characters, and Liu Man'er said that if she wants to sell it in shops in the county, she must need a lot.

"Okay." Ye He heard Liu Man'er nodded, and said with a little bit of concern: "But you haven't written that "Journey to the West" for a long time, I seem to see the back."

"I said why do you care about me so much? So you want to read." Liu Man'er felt a little funny, and said, "Well, I'll write some more tonight."

"Yeah." Ye He nodded again and again. She really wanted Liu Man'er to write that book quickly, but unfortunately, she seemed to be busy with work every day recently, and she only had time at night. It's cold, and I can't write much at night, and Ye He is also afraid that Liu Man'er will be frozen at night, sometimes even though she really wants her to write more, she has to persuade her to rest.

Seeing Ye He's book-lovers, Cao'er secretly smiled, thinking that it's a good thing she didn't read it, otherwise she would inevitably become like Ye He and become such an idiot.

"By the way, Ye Feng, if you have nothing to do tonight, can you copy these books for me?" Liu Man'er said to Ye Feng who came in.

"No problem." Ye Feng agreed.

But Ye He said from the side: "Third brother, you agreed so quickly? It's over, you copied sister-in-law's book, and you will definitely become sister-in-law's little book fan by then."

"Really? Sister-in-law's book really has such a great magic power?" Ye Feng asked casually. He thought that his self-control was very good. Ye He was fascinated by Liu Man'er's book, and he only regarded her as a child. I will not be like this.

Seeing Ye Feng's expression, Ye He knew that he didn't believe him, and said: "Of course, you will find out later in the evening."

"Okay, okay, Feng'er will not be the same as you." Liu Man'er said with a smile, and handed the couplet in her hand to Han Fang who was beside her, asking her to put it on a free desk to dry.

"Come on, sister-in-law, this is the money we earned from selling couplets today." Ye Feng untied a small pouch from his waist and handed it to Liu Man'er.

"You can just keep it for yourself, why don't you give it to me." Liu Man'er held the small bag, and she actually felt her nose hurt, and she had a feeling in her heart that there was a child in my family who had just grown up.

"Sister-in-law, keep it." Ye He said, "We all kept pocket money for ourselves."

"We bought silk threads and silk handkerchiefs today..." Ye He counted his treasures, and Ye Feng added, "There are also white paper and ink."

"Yes, this is the remaining money, you keep it, sister-in-law, you are our big housekeeper." Ye He said with a smile, "Our business is good today, thanks to this little guy."

As soon as Ye He spoke, Shuai Shuai popped out of the pannier on Ye Feng's back.

"This guy thinks he has merit, so he forced Brother Ye Feng to recite all the way." Cao'er smiled while covering his mouth.

Liu Man'er also smiled, "You are all great heroes today, so I will allow mother to cook for you today."

"Okay, it's been a long time since I had a meal cooked by my mother." Ye He said happily.

During this period of time, Liu Man'er didn't let Fang's cook and do housework. Sometimes she would be persuaded by Liu Man'er to come back when she wanted to do it. Anyway, Liu Man'er has the final say at home now, and even Fang's has to listen to her.

After the children greeted Liu Man'er, they left to pack up their things. Liu Man'er held the purse, feeling inexplicable in her heart, well, she has gotten to this point now, and she has to let a few children to make money and subsidize It's useless to use it for home use!

Originally wanted to rest for a while, but thought that the children had worked so hard, she couldn't be too lazy, so after walking around the house, she started busy writing couplets again. After a while, she asked Han Shixin who got up early to deliver food to the county to deliver it to Liu Yunsheng, and gave Han Shixin a few words before letting Han Shixin leave.

Due to pregnancy, my legs are a little swollen recently. I want to go for a walk in the courtyard more, but I feel that the weather is too cold. This year seems to be abnormally cold. The wind is pervasive. It seems that no matter how much you wear, it will go straight to you. The only way to feel warmer is to burn in the fire in the room covered with window paper.

Although it was cold, she still stood up and walked around the yard. At this time, the ducks were also afraid of the cold, so they huddled in their sheds and could not come out. The chickens were also crowded together, and Liu Man'er fed them some food , They just ran out with their feet scattered, and ran back after they were full.

After walking around, Mrs. Fang saw her, so she came over, supported her, and said: "You child, in such a cold day, you can just warm up at home, but you have to come out to have a wind."

Liu Maner replied: "Staying in the house every day, I feel a little bored."

"It's okay to come out and walk, you can let Xiao Hecao'er and the others support you, what if you fall down alone?" Fang said worriedly.

"I'm not so delicate." Although Liu Man'er said so, she still let Fang lead her into the house.

After sitting in the room for a while, the day became darker and darker, Fang said casually, "Isn't it going to snow?"

"Maybe." Liu Man'er replied, walked to the door unconsciously, and looked at the gray sky.

Sure enough, after a while, snow as big as a goose feather fell from the sky.

"It's snowing." Liu Man'er looked at the heavy snow and muttered to herself.

"It's snowing!" Ye He's cheers came from outside, and when Fang heard it, she reprimanded: "It's just snowing, what a fuss, it doesn't look like a girl's house."

"Mother, I'm still young." Ye He said.

"Still young?" Fang joked, "Who told me yesterday that she is no longer a child?"

"Oh, I won't tell you anymore." Ye He looked at Liu Man'er happily and said, "Sister-in-law, it's snowing."

"Yes." Liu Man'er nodded happily, and said, "When the snow stops, let's build a snowman."

"Okay." Ye He was very happy. She couldn't help building a snowman now. She ran into the yard, and the snowflakes were still falling on her body, spinning and dancing happily. However, she was not happy for 2 minutes. The scolding sound came, "Xiao He, come back soon, it's so cold outside, wait for the snow to melt into your clothes, I don't think it will kill you from the cold."

"Oh, I haven't played enough." Although she said this, she didn't want to worry Fang, so she came into the house.

Liu Man'er watched outside for a while, then also entered the house.

This is the first time it has snowed this year, everyone thinks it is quite rare, and Liu Man'er thinks so too, but she is worried about her own vegetables, and said: "Oh, it's snowing so hard, I don't know how my vegetables can grow." Can't make it through."

"Mistress, don't worry, our vegetables are almost sold out this year." Aunt Han happened to enter the house, heard Liu Man'er sigh, and said: "If you are worried, I will take them back in the afternoon and put them in the cellar inside."

"Since they're almost sold out, don't worry, wait until the snow stops." Liu Man'er said.

"Yes." Aunt Han nodded in agreement.

Liu Man'er remembered something, and asked again: "Hasn't Uncle Han returned from serving food to the restaurant this morning?"

"Yes." Aunt Han replied.

"It's snowing heavily and the road is difficult to walk. It's really hard for him." Liu Man'er said: "Now the villagers outside know that our family is poor, and they don't want to have anything to do with our family. Thank you for being by our side as always. We have never been lazy in our work, and we have never become arrogant because we are poor."

When Aunt Han heard Liu Man'er say this, her heart shivered, and she quickly replied: "What did the mistress say, no matter what happens to the master's family, as long as you don't sell us, we will naturally be by your side forever Yes. Now the master’s family is in difficulty, and even the girls are so diligent, we only hate ourselves for being powerless and not being able to help you.”

Liu Man'er nodded slightly, and didn't want her to say more about this matter. Aunt Han sat for a while, and then went to cook, and Liu Man'er was also busy writing a book.

The snow stopped in the afternoon, and Liu Man'er and others went out to have a look. In just a short while, the snow was almost three inches thick. Liu Man'er promised Ye Tianchen that she would take him to make a snowman, so she took him to roll on the snow. Here comes the ball.

Ye He and Cao'er were also very interested in building a snowman, and even Han Fang and Han Ping joined in. After Aunt Han came out, she saw the two making a snowman and said, "Han Fang and Han Ping , I asked you to come out to sweep the snow, you were lucky, and played with a few little masters."
