Powerful Minister Buddha-like Sweet Wife - Chapter 31
Xu Ye saw how powerful Liu Tangxi was, and another Zhou family followed her day by day. So, the Zhao family was a lot more honest and worked hard to clarify Liu Tangxi’s reputation.
This matter soon ended, and Liu Tangxi’s reputation in these ten miles and eight villages was much better than before.
Although Wei Hanzhou was not at home, there seemed to be no difference.
The only difference now is that there is one less child in the family. Bo Sheng followed Wei Daniel and Wei Erhu to town early in the morning.
However, even if Bosheng left, Liu Tangxi still taught Fuyao and Shulan to read in the morning.
Now the two people know more characters, and some basic books are memorized.
Like Liu Tangxi, it’s just a little weaker in writing.
However, although the conditions of Wei Lao San’s family are better now, things like paper and pens are still luxury goods, so they can’t provide them with more. Besides, Liu Tangxi’s own handwriting is like that, and he has no face to teach the two girls.
Thinking that Kai Chunwei Hanzhou would almost be able to get the champion in the next year, Liu Tangxi felt that they would have the opportunity to practice their calligraphy well in the future.
A few days later, it was time to go to town to send embroidery work.
Now the weather is not as hot as before, and it’s a lot cooler. It’s not so hot when walking on the road, and Liu Tangxi is also happy to go out more.
So, this time she plans to go with Zhang’s.
Zhou also wanted to go out, but it was a pity that Zhong Xing was still young, so she had to breastfeed and wait for the children, so she could only watch it eagerly.
When they left, Zhang and Liu Tangxi took the two little girls with them.
Along the way, with their two villains, the journey was not so boring. However, where I could go in half an hour in the past, I took an hour in my life this time.
After all, Fuyao and Shulan were young and couldn’t be tired anymore. So they stopped and went and rested for a long time.
When they arrived in town, the group went to the shop first.
Seeing Liu Tangxi came, the shopkeeper was much more enthusiastic than ever.
“Lady Xiucai, you came here in person today.”
Since Wei Hanzhou and Liu Tangxi visited the shop last time, the shopkeeper has never seen Liu Tangxi again. Now he has a big piece in his hand, and the other party wants Liu Tangxi to do it, so he has been waiting for Zhang to come over.
Unexpectedly, Liu Tangxi would also follow, which saved a lot of things.
“The shopkeeper is good.” Liu Tangxi and the others said hello.
After a few words of greeting from the shopkeeper, he pointed out this matter.
“I have a big piece here. Guo Yuanwai, who is outside the city, is going to marry his daughter. However, the Guo family girl is not good at embroidering and can’t embroider the wedding dress herself, so she thought about finding someone to embroider it. But she hasn’t looked for it for a long time. I found the right one. By coincidence, she saw the purse embroidered by the lady in our shop that day. She liked it very much and said she wanted the lady to help embroider it. How did the lady feel?”
Although Liu Tangxi came here not long ago, she still heard Guo Yuanwai’s name.
This is also thanks to Zhou’s.
Zhou likes to talk to people outside when he is fine, and knows more things.
Guo Yuanwai’s family can be regarded as people in the county town, but they have a big family and built a big house outside the county town.
His family is a well-known wealthy family.
The reason why his name can be passed to the village is because his family had chosen a maid, who paid two dollars a month. Many people in the village were tempted to send their girls there, but unfortunately they were not selected.
When Liu Tangxi heard it was a big item, and the other party was a rich man, he was sure that he would not give less money, so he was immediately moved.
“Can you tell me how much you pay?” Liu Tangxi still cares more about this.
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately understood that Liu Tangxi was about to agree. Therefore, the smile on his face adds a bit more.
“Five taels of silver.” The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and gestured in front of Liu Tangxi.
Hearing this number, Zhang gasped. She used to embroider kerchiefs for a penny or two. Since she learned to embroider kerchiefs, I am afraid that she hasn’t made so much.
Fifty taels of silver is a great sum of money to her, she has never seen so much silver.
Seeing Zhang’s performance, the shopkeeper was very satisfied. Let alone Zhang, he was surprised when he heard it. His shop is a small business, and he can’t even make a tael of silver a month. These 50 taels of silver can be said to be his savings for more than half a year.
However, Liu Tangxi was very calm, and was not surprised because the shopkeeper said five taels of silver.
It’s as if five taels of silver are five copper plates.
For Liu Tangxi’s reaction, the shopkeeper was very impressed, thinking that she deserves to be a talented lady, but she has a lot of knowledge and is different from these people.
“Is there a specific flower, how long will it take to finish?” Liu Tangxi calmly asked what she wanted to know.
Seeing that Liu Tangxi was so calm, the shopkeeper gradually calmed down.
“Yes, Ms. Guo’s family has already sent someone to paint, and she is waiting to embroider on it. The other party hopes to finish it in about a month.”
Liu Tangxi recalled the look of the wedding dress, forget it.
The shopkeeper thought Liu Tangxi had scruples, raised his eyes and looked around, and whispered: “I know the lady is special, so I didn’t dare to tell people that you did these embroidery work. Don’t worry, there will be nothing outside. Gossip.”
Hearing this, Liu Tangxi felt warm in his heart.
The shopkeeper was someone Zhang’s had worked with for many years, and he was as reliable as Zhang’s.
However, she doesn’t really care about these. After eating with crafts, she felt that she was acting upright, and there was nothing she couldn’t tell people. However, considering his current status, Liu Tangxi also knows what the world is caring about.
She is a talented lady, but she embroiders veils, purses, and wedding dresses, which is always unpleasant to say. Moreover, in the future, Wei Hanzhou will be the champion. She will also return to the capital in the future, and there will also be a Houfu family.
If these things really spread out, there must be some rumors.
Although she doesn’t care about these, she also has no intention of causing trouble.
She is grateful for the treasurer to care about her so much.
“Thank you for the shopkeeper.” Liu Tangxi said gratefully, “However, I still have one question. Is it just the wedding dress? Will it pay too much money and take too long?”
The shopkeeper hurriedly said: “More than that. Moreover, this wedding dress is more complicated. Miss Guo’s family is going to marry to the south. I heard that the customs of the man’s side are very complicated and completely different from ours. Besides, besides marrying Clothes, some veils, purses, etc., but the job is not easy. However, I believe that with the skills of a lady, it can definitely be done.”
Liu Tangxi nodded and agreed.
The Guo family said that she took a look at her purse, but she didn’t believe it. With the Guo family’s business, she would never find an embroiderer to embroider her daughter’s dowry casually. He must have hired a lot of embroiderers and carefully studied what she embroidered.
Or, the Guo family might have known her identity a long time ago, but it’s just not clear.
The shopkeeper was very pleased to see that Liu Tangxi had agreed.
If Liu Tangxi can agree to it, the Guo family will naturally benefit from him. Moreover, if you embroider these things, you have to buy thread and cloth from him.
At the moment, the shopkeeper said to go to Guo’s house to reply to the letter, hoping that Liu Tangxi could stay in the town for a while.
It just so happened that Liu Tangxi and Zhang wanted to take the two children to play with them, but Zhang wanted to see Bo Sheng, so they agreed.
After leaving the shop, Zhang still felt like he was dreaming.
“Three younger siblings, the shopkeeper just said it was fifty taels of silver?” Zhang asked in a low voice. When I was speaking, I looked left and right, for fear of being heard.
Liu Tangxi nodded and said, “Yes, if I heard it right, it should be so many.”
Zhang gasped again and said, “A lot.”
Liu Tangxi smiled and said, “Yes, a lot.”
Zhang murmured: “Most is more, presumably the big family are also particular about it, there are probably a lot of things.”
Liu Tangxi agreed with this point of view, nodded, and said, “Indeed, I must be busy in the next month.”
“Hey, I don’t know if they have any requirements, will they be dissatisfied and have to refund.” Xu is because there is too much money, Zhang’s began to have concerns.
Liu Tangxi in turn comforted Zhang’s: “No. Since the sister-in-law said that the other party is a big family, they must have seen my embroidered things, and they are definitely not one or two. Otherwise, they won’t let the shopkeeper. Come to ask. After all, it’s a big deal for a woman to get married.”
Zhang suddenly realized, and said, “Yes.”
Thinking of Liu Tangxi’s exquisite embroidery work, Zhang felt that his worry was unnecessary, and quickly said: “You have done a good job in embroidery, and the other party will definitely be satisfied.”
After saying a few words, seeing Fuyao and Shulan running around curiously, the two of them hurriedly led the other and wandered around.
Liu Tangxi has always liked children, almost responsive to requests, and buy what he wants.
As Shulan’s mother-in-law, Zhang was not as generous as her, but seeing her daughter’s happy appearance, she couldn’t bear to say it.
Just thinking, after returning, if the mother said something, she would recognize it by herself.
After buying a lot of delicious food, the four of them went to the place where Uncle Sheng studied.
Bosheng was extremely happy when he saw someone coming from his family. Liu Tangxi was generous and took his uncle to the restaurant in the town.
After eating and drinking enough, the boy was sent back to her husband, and the group returned to the shop.
When I went back, the shopkeeper had already returned.
Seeing that Liu Tangxi and the others were back, he hurriedly greeted them and led them to the inner room.
There was a small box in the middle, and there was a lot of red objects in the box.
As the shopkeeper said, there are indeed many.
Liu Tangxi looked at the flowers on the top one by one, then touched the fabric again, and gradually became aware of it.
It can be seen that the other party came here prepared and prepared for her a long time ago, otherwise, it would not be delivered so soon. Moreover, the other party must know that she is a talented lady, otherwise she would not send things so easily.
Since the other party didn’t say it clearly, she wouldn’t say it.
I estimated the embroidery work in front of me in my heart. If it is slow, it will take more than half a month, if it is fast, it will take half a month.
However, for the sake of eyes, Liu Tangxi didn’t want to finish it quickly.
“How about it, lady, can it work?” The shopkeeper asked when Liu Tangxi had finished reading it.
Liu Tangxi nodded and said, “Well, no problem.”
The shopkeeper immediately smiled and said, “That’s good, that’s good. This box is too heavy, I will let the buddy drive you back in the mule cart at home.”
“Thank you for the shopkeeper.” Liu Tangxi said.
After an appointment one month later, I went to take it at home, and Liu Tangxi and his party went back.
After returning home, Li heard about this and was extremely happy.
As for the fact that they spent more money on the children in the town, Li didn’t care much.
When it was time for dinner in the evening, Wei Lao San announced one thing.
In the future, the money earned by each family will be the same as before, and it will be fine to hand in half of it.
Liu Tangxi vaguely guessed that this matter had something to do with her five taels of silver, and became more fond of Wei Lao San and Li’s style of doing things.
She didn’t care much about the five taels of silver, and she didn’t have any comments when she handed them in. Wei’s third family will never treat her harshly, she will go to the capital sooner or later.
However, she was quite happy to be able to save some money.
“The situation at home is much better now than before. Sooner or later, our family will be separated. Let’s save it by ourselves. I will keep the remaining half with your mother.”
Wei Lao San had suffered regardless of his family, and he also deeply understood the ways in it. Therefore, as the patriarch, he will never go the same way.
Before, he was an honest man, and he would hand it over to the public when he made money. But he has a few brothers, but they are lazy and do not want to make progress.
If all the money is handed over to the public, it will breed laziness for some people and upset the hard-working people. Therefore, it is better to keep half of it. Those who are diligent will earn more, and naturally they will be able to keep more in their hands. Those who are lazy are naturally less.
Over the years, Wei Lao San has formed his own style of doing things.
Because these wedding gowns are difficult to embroider and are more expensive, Li is close to Liu Tangxi and wants her to not have to teach her two children for the time being.
Liu Tangxi rejected Li’s proposal.
Embroidery hurts her eyes too much. She doesn’t want to hide in the house all the time to embroider. She should rest or rest.
Therefore, she still teaches two children to read in the morning, but in the afternoon she embroiders in the house.
She wanted to embroider outside, however, these things were too expensive, and she was afraid that they would accidentally be broken and soiled, so she had to embroider them in the house.
After more than half a month, Liu Tangxi was almost finished embroidering.
That afternoon, Liu Tangxi was embroidering her wedding dress in the house, when suddenly, the door opened from the outside.
Liu Tangxi thought Fuyao or Shulan came to see her, so he didn’t take it seriously. He lowered his head to embroider, and smiled and said, “Let Auntie see, which little baby came to me again.”
In the past, after Liu Tangxi said this, the other party would definitely respond.
However, today, after Liu Tangxi embroidered a few more times, he suddenly discovered that the other party hadn’t responded to her at all.
It’s early winter now, and the weather is relatively cold, and strands of cool breeze blows in from the door.
Liu Tangxi couldn’t help but wince.
Is this open?
Liu Tangxi looked up at it.
Although it was a bit cold, Liu Tangxi was more patient when thinking that the other party might be Fuyao or Shulan. When she looked over, her face was also smiling.
However, under this look, he was immediately stunned.
Where is her baby, it is clearly Wei Hanzhou who has not seen him in January.
The smile on Liu Tangxi’s face disappeared suddenly, and his attitude changed instantly.
“It’s cold, close the door.” Liu Tangxi urged, with a hint of impatient and disgust in his voice.
There is no heating in the house now, and the cold makes her tremble. It’s nothing more than a child. Wei Hanzhou is an adult, so he doesn’t even understand such a simple truth.
Wei Hanzhou:……,,
