Chapter Thirteen

"Miaoya, sister-in-law wants to ask you for something."

After Mrs. Wang finished cleaning the house, she stopped Jiang Miao at the door of the kitchen.

"Sister-in-law, please tell me," Jiang Miao stopped what she was doing and said.

"Can you teach your sister-in-law how to embroider?"

After saying this, her face turned red with embarrassment. Who didn't know that embroidery is a craft passed down from family to family? She shamelessly asked Jiang Miao to teach her. If word spread and people knew about it, the old Shen family would be embarrassed by her.

But she couldn't help it. Her husband was working hard at the dock, and all the money he had saved throughout the year was turned over to the public. The older man turned 13 during the Chinese New Year, and the money for his wife was still not available. The work in the fields was about to be finished, and she felt panicked when she had no time.

.

The third child's family has spent dozens of pennies on just buying meat in the past few days. There must be a way to make money. She doesn't want to earn more. If she only has a few pennies a day, she will save it all over time.

Jiang Miao had no intention of hiding anything. After all, some modern technologies can be found everywhere on the Internet, but...Jiang Miao looked at Wang's rough hands and knew that embroidery was definitely not good.

Mrs. Wang thought she was unwilling, her honest face showed embarrassment, and her face was as red as boiling an egg.

"It's okay if you don't want to. It's my sister-in-law who's being abrupt."

"It's not my sister-in-law, I'm not unwilling. It's just that embroidery is a delicate job, and it's difficult to learn it even after a while..." She paused, "How about this, I teach my sister-in-law how to weave blessing knots. This is a simple trick with many different meanings.

Good, no worse than selling embroidery."

Countryside women don't have much income. In addition to doing farm work, they just wash and cook at home. When she heard that Jiang Miao was willing to teach her, Wang held the corners of her clothes with her fingers and muttered.

"Miaoya, my sister-in-law knows you are a good person."

"I want to learn too!" Mrs. Xu listened for a long time. When she heard that Jiang Miao had a way to make a fortune, she couldn't help but jump out.

The boss wants to leave her behind and make money on his own, but there is no way!

Jiang Miao didn't care, it was better this way, since she didn't have to teach one person and the other would have objections. She taught the same thing, so she learned as much as she could, and he couldn't blame her.

Jiang Miao divided some red ropes into pieces, and she taught them the simplest auspicious knot. Xu had tied knots before, so she got started faster and her weaving was more delicate and beautiful.

Seeing Wang being clumsy and unable to make up a pattern for a long time, she was proud at first, but later became impatient for her and taught her step by step.

"Oops, you put it on wrong again, this thread goes through here."

Jiang Miao was a little funny, her second sister-in-law was selfish and overbearing, and she was unforgiving, but she had a good heart.

"It's so beautiful!" The two of them looked at the knitted blessing knot. The red color looked festive and the name sounded nice. Who doesn't want to add some blessings to their family?

"Miaoya, how much can this sell for?"

Mrs. Xu can't wait to count the money.

"An ordinary Luo Zi costs three cents, and this Blessing Qi Knot should be about the same. After all, it's easy to make, and it's just a new pattern."

Jiang Miao made an estimate and found that Wang was already very excited.

"Very good, very good. Then Sister-in-law Miaoya, please help me sell it."

"It's okay, sister-in-law."

After both of them had learned to leave and it was getting late, Mrs. Zhang came out of the east room.

"Did you teach them?"

Jiang Miao nodded, and Mrs. Zhang patted her hand.

"You can teach them, mother, thank you." Mrs. Zhang didn't know her daughter-in-law's abilities, but judging from the money she had earned these past few times, her embroidery skills were definitely not weak.

Jiang Miaoneng was thinking about the Shen family, and she felt happy from the bottom of her heart. When the third child becomes an official, Jiang Miao will be the mistress of the Shen family. If the mistress is generous, the rest of the Shen family will live a better life.

"Mom, what are you talking about? If my sisters-in-law are willing to learn some gadgets, I'm willing to teach them. As long as our family gets better and better, my mother's words are just out of context."

"Don't say it anymore, mother, don't say it anymore." She remembered Miao Ya's kindness in her heart.
