Li Jinzhu and Li Yuzhu sent Mrs. Wu away and entered the main room, followed closely by Sister Mei.
"It's Yinzhu's mother-in-law, here is..."
"I know, I know, I was outside just now and heard it." Sister Mei interrupted Li Jinzhu's story with a nervous look on her face.
"Well, Sister Mei, sit down and let's discuss it." Li Jinzhu frowned.
"If the eldest sister wants to persuade the third eldest sister, she will definitely be able to persuade her." Li Xiaonan looked at Li Jinzhu.
"Should we persuade or not?" Li Yuzhu also looked at Li Jinzhu.
"What's the best way to treat Yinzhu?" Li Jinzhu looked at Li Xiaonan.
"She came to our house to complain and asked the eldest sister to persuade the third sister." Li Xiaonan laughed.
Li Jinzhu hummed and relaxed his upper body.
"Then the old lady of the Hong family didn't listen to her, and Hong Er didn't listen to her either, so she had no choice but to come to our house." Li Yuzhu showed a smile.
"In the first month of the first month, we went to Hong's house to enjoy the flowers and listen to the opera. In front of us, she asked what kind of curtains and screens were in the yard of the new house. The housekeeper didn't answer the question. What kind of curtains and screens were she? She just said, please don't worry, Mrs. p>
"She can't even take care of the curtains and screens.
"The Wu family is not poor or defeated. It's a good thing. She has been married into the Hong family for so many years, and she doesn't even have the weight to point out the curtains and window screens. If the third sister learns from her, what will she learn?" Li Xiaonan looked at it.
Big sister.
Li Yuzhu laughed, raised her hand and patted Li Xiaonan on the head, "Ah, don't speak so bluntly, it's not good."
"This damn girl is very mean." Li Jinzhu laughed angrily and pointed at Li Xiaonan's forehead.
"That's it, the old lady of the Hong family will always be at the front. What will happen then? She is the mother-in-law!" Sister Mei frowned, worried.
"There is no perfect way. Let's look at it now. Who knows what will happen then." Li Jinzhu thought for a while and said.
Li Yuzhu nodded repeatedly.
On this day last year, the five siblings were in a state of melancholy. She thought they were already at the gate of hell. At that time, who could have imagined that they would end up like this?
Early the next morning, Li Xiaonan was thinking about what to do today, when a clean-cut boy in green clothes and a green hat brought a suitcase to Li Xiaonan.
The suitcase has two layers in total, and on the top are several books that Li Xiaonan asked the library to copy yesterday.
The book cover was made of indigo matte silk. When she picked it up, she saw faint dark lines. Li Xiaonan looked at the light and found that the dark lines were the emblem of their Prince Rui's Palace.
Open it, and you will find that the paper is of excellent quality, with very small lines of Xinguange style characters, and each stroke is clear and beautiful. When you turn it to the end, there is a big red seal stamped on the back cover, which is the word "Run He".
Li Xiaonan picked up the book and couldn't help but sigh, how much money does such a book cost?
Fortunately, their palace gave it to them for free.
Li Xiaonan picked up a few books, and on the bottom layer were a large bag of pine nut candies and a small bag of dried meat.
As soon as Li Xiaonan saw the amount, she knew that Wan Qing had given it to her. She took two pieces of pine nut candy, stuffed one into Sister Mei's mouth, and ate one herself. The rest was wrapped and put in the basket, and she sat on the porch to look at it.
Those books.
In the evening, Li Xuedong went to Hong's house. Mrs. Wu left early in the morning to go back to Kunshan County. Hong Zhenye hadn't come yet, so Li Xuedong left a message. As soon as Hong Zhenye arrived, he hurriedly sent him a message to the government school.<
/p>
The next day was another day for Ah Wu to patrol the town. Within an hour, Ah Wu hurried back in a hurry.
"It seems like business is coming!" Awu lowered his voice.
"Is there someone selling cloth again?" Li Xiaonan's heart skipped a beat.
"No, there is a woman who says she has cloth. She has to talk to the shopkeeper face to face, or Guo Xiang."
"Then we're still selling cloth." Li Xiaonan retorted first, "I'll tell Sister Mei."
A Wu looked at Li Xiaonan who ran in to explain to Sister Mei, and thought for a moment with his eyebrows furrowed.
Well, no, there are still people selling cloth!
This grocery store is on the same street as the grocery store where Li Xiaonan was given medicine last time, one at this end and the other at that end.
The woman, in her thirties, clean and tidy, was sitting on a small bamboo chair in front of the grocery store, quickly embroidering a shoe upper.
"This is our little boss." A Wu jumped off the horse, and before he could stand still, he pointed at Li Xiaonan and introduced.
The woman calmly put away her embroidery work, stood up, and carefully looked at Li Xiaonan who rolled off the horse.
"My surname is Li, please call me Miss Li. Do you have cloth to sell?" Li Xiaonan stood firm, brushed her clothes, and looked at the woman and asked.
"My maiden name is Lu, and my husband's surname is He. I heard about your previous son's collection of fine linens." The woman looked a little disappointed.
This little girl is really young, and she doesn’t look like a rich person in her coarse clothes.
Li Xiaonan looked at her and said nothing.
"Later, you didn't go to each house to explain anything more," Sister-in-law Lu continued.
"What we collect is home-woven fine cloth. Home-woven fine cloth is different from the fine cloth from the weaving mill. They are all taught by a master in the weaving workshop. Their hand strength is about the same. Home-woven fine cloth must be loose or tight.
"This is one, and the other is, it's hard to tell whether the fine cloth has been saved for one or two years, or three or five years." Li Xiaonan paused, "There were very few things like the day before yesterday. How many people could have saved the fine cloth?
Crisp and rotten to dust?"
"The young shopkeeper is young, but he is a sensible person. Let's go over there and sit and talk. I'll treat the young shopkeeper to a cup of tea." Sister-in-law Lu was obviously more enthusiastic and pointed to the teahouse opposite.
"Okay."
Li Xiaonan and Sister-in-law Lu entered the teahouse. Sister-in-law Lu only wanted a pot of tea and poured a cup for Li Xiaonan first.
"How do you plan to do this business? How much capital does it cost?" Sister-in-law Lu asked with a smile.
"The capital is not much, but it is enough to start this small business. I don't know how to answer my sister-in-law's question." Li Xiaonan took a sip of tea.
Sister-in-law Lu looked at Li Xiaonan, who was dressed in coarse cloth, and said, "This fine cloth business is really going to start, and the cost is not small."
"Well, what are your plans, sister-in-law?"
"The little shopkeeper is collecting this fine cloth for his own use? How much do he plan to collect? How many years will it last?" Sister-in-law Lu stared at Li Xiaonan closely.
"The fine cloth collected here is intended to be sold to people who want to use fine cloth. We can collect as much as we can. As long as this business can still be done, we will continue to do it."
"Is there really anyone who wants to buy this fine cloth shop? Does the shopkeeper have a buyer?" Sister-in-law Lu asked.
"Yeah." Li Xiaonan reluctantly hummed.
"I shouldn't ask about this buyer." Sister-in-law Lu immediately added, "Our Hejia Village is just over a mile away from Guoxiang. It is a big village. There are many people in the village who can weave fine cloth, including me.
Six of us, if you can really keep fine fabrics for a long time, we plan to pool our money to buy a heddle loom."
"Six people using one loom?" Li Xiaonan asked.
"The heddle loom is very expensive, besides." Sister-in-law Lu paused to reply, looked at Li Xiaonan and smiled.
Li Xiaonan understood what she meant. She had invested too much. If she stopped collecting the fine cloth, the loss would be too great.
"Let's see, you guys buy a loom, and I'll give you a three-heddle loom, and you use fine cloth to pay for the loom, how about that?" Li Xiaonan said with a smile.
"New or old phone?" Sister-in-law Lu's eyes lit up.
"Brand new. The goods are from the Majia Loom Shop in the city." Li Xiaonan paused, then smiled and said: "Also, the price now is the lowest price. If the fine cloth you weave is fine and even, the pattern is novel and beautiful, the price
Just float up."
"Okay! If we really have two looms, we can weave very quickly. With one loom, we can make one piece of cloth in two or three days. With two looms, if we rush to work, it will be almost one piece of cloth a day.
Horse." Sister-in-law Lu reminded.
"A piece of cloth is worth a day." Li Xiaonan tugged down the corner of her mouth.
Sister-in-law Lu laughed and said, "Okay, let's go take a look at the loom first. If anything happens, can we leave a message at the grocery store opposite?"
"Yeah." Li Xiaonan stood up and watched Sister-in-law Lu pay for the tea and come out together.
