Farm girl is busy making money

Chapter 275 My People

Chapter 270 My People

He Lanshan also sighed after hearing about Xiaokui's life experience, she was worse than her, at least she was stupid and bullied.Xiaokui just has no father or mother, besides being bullied, she has to work to make money, and in the end she is sold for money.

"Now we are family."

He Lanshan patted Xiaokui on the shoulder and said, she reached out and took Xiaokui's washed pig's trotters into the stove. She was going to make sauced pig's trotters at night, and it would take a while to stew until crispy.

Xiaokui looked at He Lanshan's back with red eyes, who said it's not good to be a servant.

Now she just does some laundry and sweeping the floor, but why Lanshan does a lot of cooking, she just washes and washes the dishes, which is much easier than living in her uncle's house.

In the evening, the smell of stewed pig's trotters permeated the whole courtyard. He Lanshan also made a sweet and sour carp, a scrambled egg with acacia flower, and big bone tofu soup stewed in a crock pot.

The He family took less than half of the seats on the big round table, which was also left by the previous house owner, because it is not practical for only four people now.

Xiaokui served rice and soup for everyone.

He Lanshan took a mouthful of pork rib tofu soup to moisten her throat, "Father, I want to make a living."

"Ah, Lanshan wants to make money, what are you going to do?" He Jinyi also thought about it when he watched his daughter occasionally complain that the food in Wangyue City was too expensive and the food was not delicious.

"Set up a stall to sell food." He Lanshan said.

"Sure, then go and get it, do you have enough money? Take Xiaokui with you in everything, and the two of you will have a caretaker together." He Jinyi instructed, although Wangyue Mansion was very peaceful, he just couldn't trust He Lanshan, a nine-year-old girl. The child goes out and buys a maid for this purpose.

"Little sister, do you need my help?" He Qinfeng smiled lightly.

In the past few days, it can be said that he has kept his ears to the outside world and only read the books of sages. Now that he knows that He Lanshan is going to start making money, he naturally wants to contribute his own strength.

After all, most of the family's money was spent because of his studies, and if he could help, it would relieve his guilt.

"That's true!" He Lanshan's eyes lit up.

After He Lanshan finished eating, He Qinfeng asked He Qinfeng to help him write a signboard, and asked He Jinyi to help him make a model out of wood. Xiaokui quickly ate half of the sauced pig's trotter that He Lanshan had left for her, cleaned up the dishes and ran to In front of He Lanshan.

Seeing that the whole family is working hard for one thing, she thought of what He Lanshan said that she is also a family, so she mustered up the courage to ask He Lanshan, "Miss, can I help?"

"When I have your help, tomorrow!"

Xiaokui is looking forward to it.

Early the next morning, He Lanshan took Xiaokui to the street.

She wants to earn a living by selling omelet rice. The cost of earning a living is low, and even if she loses money, she can't lose much money.

First, she went to the blacksmith to order a frying pan. She also brought the paper her brother had used on one side, and drew the appearance of the frying pan on the other side with charcoal, and showed it to the blacksmith.

The blacksmith said that if you add more money, it will be done the next day, so He Lanshan gritted her teeth and added [-] Wen.

"Xiaokui, let's go, let's go buy needlework." He Lanshan took Xiaokui's arm and set off towards the cloth shop, where needlework was sold. Xiaokui is embroidered on the cloth, and then propped up with a wooden support, it becomes a signboard.

When they arrived at Buzhuang, Xiaokui was familiar with the road.

"Boss, find us a black silk thread, the best quality one, which won't fade in the sun or in the wind."

"Get some more silk threads of various colors first, they are needed." He Lanshan added.

Xiaokui softly whispered in He Lanshan's ear, "Miss, silk thread like this is quite expensive, if you want to embroider characters, just buy one color."

He Lanshan is very sensitive to the word "expensive" now, so Xiaokui nodded when she said that, saying that she will have a look at it later, and definitely don't buy too much, just buy what is needed.

"Come on, all the colors are here." The boss brought a wooden tray, and the silk threads of various colors were put together in small bundles, which was just for the guests to see.

He Lanshan touched it with her hands. Although she didn't know embroidery, she knew it was a good thing. It was thin, tough and brightly colored.

While they were looking at the silk thread, a woman suddenly came from the next door and said in a loud and hearty voice, "Boss, bring the best silk thread from your place. My daughter is getting married."

"Wait first, these two little girls will see you before I see you." The boss waited patiently for He Lanshan and the others.

After He Lanshan heard Xiaokui say it was expensive, she was only going to buy black thread, but this woman yelled strangely, "Hey, who am I? It turns out to be flowers, although now you are not our Li We’re no longer family members, but we’re still very close.”

Xiaokui tightly clenched the silk thread, her lips trembling slightly.

"You know him?" He Lanshan frowned because of the voice.

"I...my uncle, Mrs. Yu." Xiaokui managed to force out the address.

Before He Lanshan could react, Mrs. Yu squeezed in beside them, looked He Lanshan up and down, then turned his head and said to Xiaokui, "Your uncle said you would sell it to a man on the side of the road. Now, I really don't believe it, you can sell it for 13 taels of silver, could it be some kind of old man, you see, you have a little maid to serve you."

He Lanshan's brows twitched, not because she was angry with her little maid.

Because when Xiaokui was brought back by He Jinyi, she was wearing patched and shortened clothes, so she took Xiaokui to a clothing store to buy a suit, while her own clothes were bought in the county town and returned to the Zhao family. Compared with the two, Xiaokui's clothes are naturally better.

It was Yu's yin and yang voice that made He Lanshan frown uncomfortably.

Instead, Xiaokui waved her hands and said, "No, don't talk nonsense, uncle, this is my young lady."

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yu was overjoyed when she heard it, "Miss, who is the lady from, who is dressed like this, who wouldn't buy you is a poor man, look, Hua'er, you are such a poor man."

He Lanshan knocked her white teeth on the cherry lips, she was really dissatisfied, anyway, Xiaokui was also her maid, and now she was scolded even with herself.

Who knew that He Lanshan hadn't moved yet, but as soon as Yu's fat butt squeezed over, she squeezed the two of them out, pointed to the silk thread on the wooden tray and said, "I want all of these, the silk thread I need for dowry embroidery many."

As she said that, Mrs. Yu glanced at Xiao Kui again, "I said Hua'er, you are a disaster star. Not only did you kill your parents, but once you go out, your sister's marriage is arranged. And the one who sold you 13 taels of silver, your uncle insists on taking away six taels of silver, you are not angry, you have been eating at our house for so many years."

There were tears in Xiaokui's eyes, she was at a loss, no matter who was sold, it would be a shame to say it again.
