Chapter 108 You Are Really Helping Me
Chapter [-] You have helped me a lot
Because I was entangled with that scoundrel just now, I wasted some time.When Xuejian and grandma arrived at Hongfubuzhuang, there were already many people in the shop.But as soon as Hongfu saw Xuejian coming.Quickly walked out of the counter.Came forward to say hello:

"Auntie, you and Xueer are here. Come and sit inside."

Xue Jian also greeted with a smile:

"Aunt Hong."

So I followed my grandma to the backyard of the store.Liang Shuang and Hu did not go in.Because Liang Shuang was going to get some embroidery work again.

"Xue'er. Did your father send you a letter? We need a hundred more irons. Your Uncle Jia said, do you think the price should be the same as before?"

Xue Jian smiled and said:
"No way. My dad said, now that my grandpa Niu is doing it, he might bring fifty of them to the street the day after tomorrow at most. Let my dad bring them."

"Success! Uncle Jia is not here today, but he said before he left that he would give you a new contract. I will give you the contract in a while and pay you 50 taels of silver first. I heard from your father that your house is going to be repaired. If you are short of money, just let me know. Aunt Hong can't help with other things. But if I can, I will definitely help."

Zhang's thanks again and again after hearing the words.Xue Jian nodded.She knew that Aunt Hong also had good intentions.Xue Jian took out the pillow and the rabbit he drew from the bag again, and said:
"Aunt Hong, we have something to tell you today. Look at this pillow. Sister Xia accidentally dripped a little wax on it when she was embroidering. As a result, the color faded here. I drew a rabbit Sister Xia embroidered this on it. I heard that the unmarried young lady is a rabbit. Think about it as a mark for him. If not, we will accompany her with a pillow. If yes, Sister Xia Just embroider a rabbit on each piece, as a mark for Miss Master."

Xuejian looked at Aunt Hong anxiously.Hong Fu took the piece of paper with the bunny in one hand.Facing the embroidered rabbit on the pillow, he smiled and said:

"The painting is really good. The embroidery is also very good. It looks like a live rabbit. But I have to ask if the master likes it or not. I think it's very good. Xue'er, this is really drawn by you. Is it. Will you draw anything else?"

The more Hongfu looked at it, the more he felt that the painting was so good!The rabbit seemed to be blinking at people!Very well-behaved, it makes people want to have fun just by looking at it!

Hongfu asked:

"Aren't you going back in the afternoon? I'm going to ask now, to see what the master thinks, I'll go to Mr. Liang's residence and bring you a letter, shall I?"

Xue Jian nodded again and again.Hong Fu said again:
"Xue'er, if you can draw the twelve signs of the zodiac so that people feel happy just looking at them, I'll buy them for you."

Xuejian himself knows that design is very important.But still laughed:

"Aunt Hong, I'm just drawing randomly, what's it worth, if you like it, you can use it!"

Hong Fu nodded Xue Jian's forehead and said:

"Silly girl, this kind of sample picture is very valuable. If you give me a set of me of the zodiac, I will buy out this picture. We are embroidery studios, and we are eager to have new pictures, so that we can have new business." !"

Xuejian looked taught, smiled and said:

"That's it! Then Aunt Hong, if I can draw other things, would you like it?"

"Yes! You don't know, Aunt Hong won't be able to find someone to draw new pictures! Those scholars must be very talkative, and they are afraid that they will become famous in the future and sell such paintings and they will lose face. Usually no one knows how to draw, Aunt Hong is relying on some old paintings and stealing some from other people’s houses to maintain her life. She is worried that she will not be able to paint! You have helped me a lot! It’s the first time I’ve seen you paint so well. Don't worry, Aunt Hong won't lose you!"

Xuejian hugged her grandma's arm coquettishly and said:

"Grandma, you see, I don't know how to embroider, but I can draw and make money. When you go back, tell your mother not to ask me to embroider. I really don't know how to hold a needle!"

Hong Fu was stunned when he heard it, and laughed loudly when he came back to his senses:
"You ghost girl! Get it! Auntie, tell Cheng Fang, I guarantee that Xue'er's paintings can earn more money than embroidery! In fact, your second girl's embroidery work is almost catching up with her aunt's!"

Xue Jian smiled smugly.And seriously said to Hong Fu:
"Aunt Hong, you have helped me. I also suggest one. From now on, I promise to give you a set of paintings for the season every season, but I have a condition! I will draw this set, and let my second cousin or My mother does it! If there is a big piece, give it priority to us. My mother has taught a few apprentices recently. I am planning to make my mother a little bit more energetic. Let her take over the work from you and do it for those people. , my mother is in charge of the work, don't worry, my mother also has something to do! Sometimes she cries quietly, saying that she is a useless person, and she still wants to..."

Xue Jian's eyes were red when he said that!Hongfu was excited when he heard it!

"That can't be done! She has to cheer up! That's right! Xue'er thinks well! Aunt Hong promises you that in the future you will come and bring back the big embroidery work. If she can't do it, let her check it out! No! Let her think about it! Baby Xueer is so good!"

Zhang Shi also wiped away tears and said:
"That's not true! Cheng Fang hasn't eaten for two days, saying that she is useless to live, and wants us to wait and pee for her. Even if Xueer figured out a way to let her teach her apprentices, the one who followed her is also a hard-working person, A little widow in her twenties. This is how Cheng Fang's heart is raised!"

Hong Fu wiped his tears and said:

"I'll have some free time in a couple of days, so I'll scold her! With such a cute daughter, she's still thinking wildly! That's it! Xue'er, draw for me, and I'll give you a model for your second sister and the others when I see it. Don't worry, Aunt Hong won't do you any harm! I'll go to the master's house now to have a look."

Mrs. Zhang took Xue'er out to see Mrs. Hu who was waiting outside.Seeing that the eye sockets of the two were red, Mrs. Hu was surprised and said:

"Can't you? Then you have to pay?"

Zhang Shi shook his head and said:

"No, Hong Fu went to ask the master's family. We talked about your little sister."

Xue Jian turned around and said:
"Grandma. Let's buy some quilts at Aunt Hong's place. We need to have quilts when our house is repaired and we move back. We also need to buy some cotton. Mother said to make jackets!"

"Hey! These were originally planned by your mother. Now..., it's good! It's good that we, Xue'er, are in charge of the house early! Come, let's choose some more quilts!"

Hu stepped forward and said softly:
"Mom, do we have enough money?"

Zhang said affirmatively:

"enough!"

Of course that's enough, Hongfu gave Xuejian 50 taels of silver just now!Even Zhang's family is considered a good family, and I am a little envious of seeing this way of making money!But I'm also happy that my daughter won't have to suffer in the future!With this granddaughter here, their family's life will only get better and better!

Xue Jian is very courageous.Twenty sets were selected in one selection.Hu said:

"Xue'er, isn't this too much for you?"

"Not much, one set for grandma and grandpa, one set for each of the three uncles! One set for my grandpa Niu, one set for my grandparents of the Shen family, one set for my seventh grandpa, and one set for my second uncle's poorer family. Give him two sets, and the rest It belongs to our family!"
