Chapter 149 This woman really has some tricks up her sleeves
Li Huimei looked at Xing Rui with a flattering look on her face,
"Sister, did you give Shui Lan something? I met her this morning and showed it off to me.
Those big yellow teeth are much whiter, and they still have a distinct fragrance. What good stuff is that? Why don’t you tell your sister-in-law?"
On the surface, Li Huimei smiled, but wasn't this just to question herself?
"Look, based on the relationship between my sister-in-law and you, you should think of your sister-in-law first if there is any good thing, right?"
"Sister-in-law is right, it was Sister Shui Lan who came to me to buy sunscreen, and asked me by the way if I could fix her yellow teeth.
Just now I remembered something, I couldn’t even remember it without Sister Shui Lan telling me, sister-in-law."
Xing Rui looked at her teeth very carefully.
"Your teeth are not yellow either. Do you still want to use them?"
"Sister,"
Li Huimei looked around, very afraid of being overheard, so she came over and said,
"To tell you the truth, no one in the village knows about this.
I wrap my teeth in cotton cloth and rub them with salt every day, so my teeth are whiter than all of them."
Xing Rui smiled. No wonder, Li Huimei's good looks actually play a role in her big white teeth.
"Sister-in-law is so smart."
"What a clever guy, I saw some mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law in wealthy families doing this, so I tried to wipe them like this.
But the salty taste is really unpleasant. It must not be as useful as yours, sister-in-law. Quickly get a bottle for my sister-in-law to use as well."
"Okay, sister-in-law, please come and pick it up at home in the evening. I'm busy with work now."
"Okay, okay, I'll pick it up at home tonight. Oh, and give me ten more bottles of sunscreen, hey!"
Li Huimei smiled, and Xing Rui knew that she had made a lot of money.
"My sister-in-law is still awesome. There are so many women in the village. Why does my sister-in-law have good food and clothing and doesn't have to work?"
Just because my sister-in-law has a more flexible mind than others.
Sister-in-law, don’t worry, Xing Rui will be the first to tell you if there are any good things in the future."
"Okay, okay, this is my sister-in-law's good girl."
Li Huimei looked around again, took out something from her sleeve pocket and slapped it into Xing Rui's hand.
"Take it, my sister-in-law looks good and bought one for you."
Xing Rui took a closer look and saw an orange velvet flower. The velvet color was really beautiful.
"Sister-in-law, this is too valuable, I can't accept it."
"Sister-in-law bought it specially for you, put it away,"
Li Huimei pushed Xing Rui's hand back hard,
"How could I not dress up to look better while guarding such a good-looking man?
Okay, I'll go get something tonight."
Li Huimei walked away. Xing Rui looked at the velvet flower in her hand and smiled, thinking to herself, this woman really has some tricks up her sleeve.
"Here, put it on my daughter."
Xing Rui was about to put it on Liang Weiwei's head with her backhand, but the little girl hurriedly dodged.
"Weiwei, don't wear it. Daddy will like mom even more if mommy wears such a beautiful thing."
Like him more? It sounds like Liang Sheng already likes him. Yes.
"Okay, I'll keep one for you during the Chinese New Year, and I'll buy another one for Duoduo, okay?"
"Um,"
Xiao Weiwei nodded vigorously, then looked at Xing Rui and said something suddenly.
"Mom, when I grow up, I also want to be like my aunt."
"Aunt? Who? Li Huimei?"
Xing Rui asked her while walking with a bucket.
"Well, that's her,"
"Oh, why do you want to be like her? Tell me, mother, listen."
"My aunt is very good at making money, and Weiwei also wants to make a lot of money to buy the white thing in her hair for my mother and flowers for my little sister.
I’m going to buy a big carriage for my father, and my brother, Grandpa Wang, and Grandma Wang. I want to buy a lot of things for them all.
So, Weiwei wants to make a lot of money."
"Oh, okay, then you have to learn how to read from your father, eh?"
Xing Rui thought about it for a while. In fact, she had been thinking this way for some time.
Children still don't know how to look up numbers, let alone addition, subtraction, and multiplication tables.
If I taught the children so abruptly, it would definitely arouse everyone's suspicion.
So, after thinking about it for a long time, she thought it would be better to say that she learned all these things from that mysterious person.
You should still be able to muddle through.
After all, Arabic numerals were introduced to China from the West, and people at this time should generally use arithmetic to calculate accounts.
Abacus is used to calculate accounts in shops.
Abacus? Liang Sheng can read, so he should also be able to do abacus, right?
"Weiwei, my mother has learned some calculation methods from me. If you want to do business and make money in the future, you must be able to calculate accounts.
But only my mother knows this method, and no outsiders can know it.
If outsiders find out, I'm afraid my mother will be sent to the government to be beheaded."
"Mom, you can teach Weiwei. Even if Weiwei is beaten to death, she won't tell anyone, and I won't tell either dad, okay?"
Seeing how eager her daughter was to learn, Xing Rui decided to secretly teach her how to count.
Practice addition and subtraction. If Liang Sheng can use an abacus, let him teach Zihe and Duoduo.
Anyway, those two children don’t have as strong a desire to do business as Weiwei does.
And judging from the conversation between Weiwei and those little girls this morning, this child has some business talent.
If Weiwei really wants to go into business in the future, of course she must master the most convenient calculation methods.
"Okay, starting from today, Mom will teach you secretly. This is a secret between you and Mom.
For the rest of your life, you are not allowed to tell anyone else, okay?"
"Um,"
The little guy nodded happily.
Xing Rui fetched water and put some mud back in. While plastering the wall, she taught her daughter to count first.
Let’s talk about Liang Sheng and the others pushing their cart into the mountains. In order to find straight, tall and suitable trees, they
They could only go deeper into the woods.
"Okay Liang Sheng, let's stop here."
Old Man Wang asked Liang Sheng to stop.
I looked into the woods and saw two large elm trees with double sticks, growing side by side.
Tall and straight, the key is that the thickness is just right.
"Just those two, they look pretty good to me."
When Old Man Wang said this, Liang Sheng could see clearly.
"Okay, how can you do it?"
Liang Sheng had never cut wood before, so he could only ask Old Man Wang for advice.
"Take the ax and saw. Let's go over and take a look."
Liang Sheng listened, took all the tools and walked towards the woods.
At this time, the trees were lush and pointed, growing upwards.
When you walk in, you will find that everything is blocked by branches and vegetation.
Fortunately, the two big elm trees grow together, so they are easy to find.
Lao Wang looked around the two big trees, looking for a suitable direction to strike. Liang Sheng was not idle either.
He hurriedly used the ax in his hand to clear the branches around him so that he could lower the tree and drag it out.
While he was chopping, Liang Sheng suddenly heard a strange cry and stopped hurriedly.
The sound actually came from the grass on the side.
