farmer's daughter

Chapter 85

Chapter 85 Going to the market for the second time
Liang Chengfang can move!Things made of this wood can move.The Liang family is happy.Liang Chengfang is the happiest person!Although tired and nervous, the smile was always on the corner of his mouth.

Liang Zhongqiu smiled and said:
"Fang'er, it's all over now. You taught your daughter the first step. I didn't expect your daughter to teach you how to walk."

Liang Chengfang laughed until tears flowed down her cheeks, saying:

"Yes, yes. Cher taught me to walk. I really have to thank my Cher!"

Xuejian smiled a little embarrassedly and said:
"What did mother say? Am I not your daughter? This is what you should do!"

Liang Zhongqiu said with a smile:
"Xuejian is a good boy! Don't worry, tell grandpa what you want to do, and grandpa will help you!"

The next day, Shen Sanzhu also had to go to work, and it was the day when Zhang promised to take Xuejian to the street, so everyone went out together.Chengwen didn't go today, and neither did Xiaocao.Originally, Xuejian asked Ning Yuanzhi if he wanted to go, but he shook his head silently.But when he went out in the morning, he got up early and stood at the door to see them off.

Shen Sanzhu was driving the ox cart today, Liang Xia and Liang Shuang both went.Liang Shenggao also went to town to buy some things needed for busy farming.

Because I set off early today, it was just dawn when I arrived in town.Xuejian actually fell asleep in the car.I still sent the ox cart in the shop where I sent the cart last time.Because Shen Sanzhu was going on a business trip, after saying goodbye to his mother-in-law, he rubbed Xuejian's hair and said:
"Hold grandma's hand and don't get lost."

Then he turned around and strode towards the Yamen.I came earlier today, but there were already more people on the street than last time, so Mrs. Zhang led Xue Jian to the front.Liang Shuang and Liang Xia followed behind holding hands.The last one was Liang Shenggao with an empty burden.Zhang said as he walked:

"Today is the fair, so there are many people. We didn't come to the fair last time. After a while, grandma will take you to look around. Let's go and hand over your cousin's work first."

Xue Jian nodded, she also wanted to see what was sold in this tailor shop.After the uncles left, Zhang turned around and said:
"Sheng Gao, you go and buy white noodles first, otherwise there will be more people crowded later. Be careful and buy better ones. Then go to your Uncle Niu and bring back the sickle that your father brought to sharpen last time. Remember to give it to Uncle Niu It’s an extra bowl of tea money. Then you put the things with the third child and come to the butcher’s place to find us.”

Liang Shenggao nodded.Take out the iron from the burden and give it to Mrs. Zhang.Zhang Shi really didn't think of it as something that could be sold for money, but only as a joke for the children.

After Liang Shenggao left, the grandparents and grandchildren went directly to the place where Liang Xia and the others usually pick up work.I passed by here the last time I came here, and I knew that the signboard of this store was a ready-made clothing store. As soon as I walked in, I realized that the store sold everything, including everything made of cloth.As big as a quilt, as small as a handkerchief, they have everything you need.

As soon as I entered the store, I found that there were already many people inside, most of them belonged to older girls and younger wives.However, there are still many men who sell things, and there are only two women who are dressing up, helping to lay hands, fetching something, or explaining how to embroider.

After entering the shop, Liang Xia and Liang Shuang went straight to the front.They all held a bundle in their hands, which contained the handkerchiefs they had embroidered.Sister Liang Xia came to the counter and lined up. There were three people in front of the line, and they were also big girls with burdens. One of them nodded with Liang Shuang, and she seemed to be an acquaintance.But neither of them spoke, they just smiled.Xue Jian thinks that they must all know each other here.Is this a 'nodding acquaintance'?
Xuejian looked carefully at the delivery of the person in front, a woman took the handkerchief handed over, counted it, reported the number to a young man beside her, and then checked the embroidery one by one.I chose two of them, and it seems that the embroidery of these two is not very good.The girl who delivered the goods blushed and said nothing, but what the young man reported was that two bills were deducted, but the girl who delivered the goods was not asked to pay for the cloth.The girl also nodded and bowed gratefully.Then go to the other side.I counted some more handkerchiefs from another woman, and took an embroidered one, which seemed to be a sample.Then a young man next to the woman made a record, apparently to record how many handkerchiefs this person took.

The first two have been picked out, it seems that the inspection here is still very serious.It was the third sister's turn to nod with Sister Shuang.The sister's goods are handed over.The woman counted, took a rough look and smiled:

"Okay, the number of sheets is correct. You can make more next time. We will accept all your goods directly."

The young man next to him also handed over the money to the girl.But the girl didn't go to get the veil again, but went to the other side where there were some things like pillowcases hanging there.It seems to be going to get a large embroidery.

Xuejian is watching.Just listen to the sound in the ear:

"Hey, the girl from the Liang family is here, all of you sisters are here today? Second girl Liang, you have to take some big things back to make this time, right? Recently, I have a few goods here that are in a rush, so you have to help my aunt with one Busy. I'll be waiting for you."

It was the woman who received the goods who spoke.Liang Xia smiled and said:

"Aunt Hong, I'm afraid it won't work this time. It's going to be busy farming soon. My family is very busy every year when it's time to harvest. You know that. My sister and I came back to deliver the goods and waited for the busy time to come back to pick up the goods. We have to help the family Do something."

Aunt Hong immediately put down the things in her hands and stood out of the counter, pulled Liang Xia and said:
"This is impossible. I'm really in a hurry. Even if you can't help me, help me find your sister-in-law. This product is unusual. Someone asked your sister-in-law to make it by name. I told the master that your sister-in-law can't do it. Work, I showed your work to the master, and your work has been passed down by your sister-in-law. The master agrees to do it for you. If you don’t come today, I will find your house and send it to you tomorrow. This is your sister-in-law's former regular customer. You can't embarrass your sister-in-law. The three daughters of their family are all married by your sister-in-law. When the first granddaughter of this generation is married, they come to the door again. This can’t be lost. Don’t worry, I won’t keep a cent of the reward from the master, I only need the fabric and thread money, and the rest belongs to you.”

Speaking of which, Liang Xia froze on the spot, unable to answer.Liang Shuang pulled Liang Xia's hands and said:

"Ask Grandma!"

Upon hearing that, Aunt Hong hurriedly looked around and said:

"Is Aunt Zhang here?"

Seeing Mrs. Zhang looking at the fabric over there, she turned around and told the young man:
"You take it first, and put Miss Liang's aside. I'll settle the money for her later."
