Chapter 89 In a place that is not easily seen
Chapter 89 Where it's not easy to see

Liang Sheng smiled and said:
"Hey, if you have money, you can buy new clothes, so you can't wear the old ones?"

Liang Xia snorted and said:

"Third uncle, sister-in-law doesn't even have a home now, where can she wear clothes? Otherwise, Xue'er wouldn't have to buy so many and make new ones for the whole family. You don't know, Xue'er was almost burned to death. My sister-in-law's house was completely destroyed. Burned!"

Liang Shengyue happened to have a teacup in his hand, and was surprised when he heard this.He put down the cup heavily and said:
"What's going on? Why don't I know?"

Zhang Shi stared at him and said:

"How do you know you haven't come home?"

Liang Sheng frowned and said:
"You don't say anything when you come to town! Are the second sister and brother-in-law okay?"

"My mother is fine. She was still living at Grandpa Seven's house at the time. Sister Cao'er and I were rescued by my father. It's just that my father had some burns on his hands. It's just that the house was burned and only the kang and the wall were left. Now There is nothing left!"

Xuejian still said a little sadly.

Just as Liang Shengyue was about to say something, there was a voice at the door

"Mom, you're here first!"

It was Liang Shenggao who arrived, and Liang Shenggao had no more time in his burden, so he bought some things to put in it.Seeing Xue Jian's expression, Liang Shenggao put down his burden and reached out to pat her on the shoulder, saying:
"It's not happy, is it not sold? It doesn't matter, we use it ourselves!"

Liang Shuang gave her father a white look, and said:
"Who said it wasn't sold? Dad, look at the silver on the table!"

Liang Shenggao turned his head to look, stretched out his hand to touch the bag of silver, and said in surprise:

"Yo, it's selling for so much money!"

Seeing Liang Shenggao came back, Xue Jian said:

"Grandma, Uncle is back, I still have to go to Grandpa Niu, can I ask Uncle to accompany me?"

Zhang nodded.

"Sheng Gao, you can take Xuejian there, she knows how to do it herself. But Xue'er, shouldn't you give Grandpa Niu some money first when you go this time?"

Xue Jian nodded, and took out a silver ingot from the bag, and Mrs. Zhang patted it with her hand and said:

"It's five taels and one ingot. What are you going to do with so much? Besides, didn't you, Uncle Xinglin, teach you to pay half of it first, and then pay half when you're done?"

Xue Jian withdrew her hand and said with a smile:

"Grandma has already learned Uncle Xinglin's business skills. All right, I'll listen to grandma too. Pay half of it."

Zhang took out another piece of silver from her body and said:
"This one is one tael. You give Lao Niu one tael first, and then pay after the work is completed. Look at the loudness, and you need to hit another hundred irons."

"Grandma, I'll go too. I'll go with Xueer."

Liang Xia stood up and said.

"Okay, okay, let's go. Take good care of your money. Don't spend it recklessly. Be careful of thieves." Zhang got up and walked towards the kitchen.Looks like it's time for lunch.

Liang Shengyue also stood up and said:
"I also went to have a look. Seeing Xuejian, this iron is really good. It can really sell for money."

So Brother Liang Shenggao set off again with Liang Xia and Xue Jian.Because it was getting late, I rushed straight to Lao Niu's blacksmith shop.

The people here are also starting to go home.There are not as many people as before.Arrived at Lao Niu's shop.Liang Sheng called out:

"Uncle Niu."

The old cow was still dressed in gray clothes.Also with half of his arms exposed, he was pulling the bellows.Seeing Liang Shenggao, he was a little puzzled and said:
"Didn't you take the sickle?"

"Hey, Uncle Niu, I brought you a big buyer. Come, Xue'er, tell Grandpa Niu what you want to do."

Xue Jian was not afraid of strangers, and walked out from behind Liang Shenggao.He bowed to Grandpa Niu and said crisply:
"Grandpa Niu, last time my grandpa and I came to find you and beat the ironer, do you still remember?"

The old cow laughed and said:

"Remember, the sample is still with me."

Xue Jian said with a smile:

"Grandpa Niu, I still need to make a hundred of these things. Are you busy enough?"

The old cow put away his smiling face, stood up and said:

"Girl, is what you said true?"

"Really, Grandpa Niu, I only have one request. It can only be me and my grandfather who come to you to fight. You can't tell and you can't fight when others come to you. I sold this thing to Boss Jia, and it was agreed that it will only be given to you." His family."

Lao Niu has been doing business for so many years, how can he not understand, nodded and said:

"Okay. I know the rules. If you can't say it, just don't say it. It's just how long?"

Xuejian took out the one tael of silver from her bosom and handed it to Lao Niu, saying:
"Grandpa Niu, I'll give you one or two taels of silver first. You get it first. If you have enough ten, either my grandfather will come to get it, or my uncle will come to get it. If no one comes, you can send a message to Shen Sanzhu in the yamen." Shen Sanzhu is my father."

Xuejian didn't understand before, why blacksmiths are so cheap, but later she learned that in this era, although ironsmiths are craftsmen, they are looked down upon because of their dirtyness, and they are regarded as a low-level industry.Iron in this era is not worth much, and it is only used by the army and farmers.Usually no one uses it.So the business of more than one tael of silver that Xue Jian saw was really a big business for Lao Niu.

Lao Niu wiped his hands on his clothes before accepting the money from Xuejian.Hehe smiled and said:
"Okay. Basically three days, I can produce ten in three days. I promise I won't tell others."

When Xue Jianlin went out, she turned around and said:

"Grandpa Niu, I think of something, can you make a mark in this iron. In a place that is not easy to be seen. Then others will make it different if they follow it."

The old cow froze for a moment, then smiled and said:

"This girl has a lot of eyes, okay, it belongs to a little girl of yours, then I will make a flower imprint in it, this is not for bragging, at least the only one in this town who can make an imprint here is my old cow .”

Seeing this, Xue saw a relieved smile.Then I went to the vegetable market on the other side with my uncles.Because grandma called, remember to buy some lard and go back to boil the oil.It is said that during the busy season, it is better to cook with more oil and meat, so that you will have strength to work.

Although Xuejian knows that eating too much animal oil is not good, but it is really necessary for the face of her family.Several people came to the vegetable market.Just entered that street.Someone was calling Liang Shenggao.

"Sheng Gao, what else do you want to buy?"

Xuejian saw that it was the owner of a rice grain store who was greeting the uncle.It seems that the white flour that the uncle just bought was bought from him.The man had a bag of things in his hand, which looked messy and was about to be thrown away.

"I just bought noodles, but no vegetables. My mother asked me to buy some vegetables. Are you cleaning up the store?"

Liang Shenggao also stopped and responded.

The man smiled helplessly and said:
"Yes, these are some seeds from last year. They were mixed up by the buddies. Most of them are spring and summer vegetable seeds. They are useless now. I can't tell the difference, so I have to throw them away."

After saying that, she was about to throw it away, Xue Jian stretched out her head from behind and shouted:
"I want it, uncle, if you want to throw it away, why don't you give it to me."

The shop owner saw that it was the child who came with Liang Shenggao, and he probably belonged to their family.The store owner smiled and said:

"It's useless to bring it. You can give it to you if you want it."
