Chapter 80

"Ayi, wait until next year to send your younger brother to study in an ethnology school."

"Mother, my brother is only three years old this year, and he will only be four years old next year. Isn't he younger?"

"You're not young anymore. I remember that the village chief's son went to school at the age of four. If you go to Mr. Yu to intercede, he will definitely agree. Besides, your brother is so smart, how could Mr. Yu not like it. "

"Ok."

Huang Yi wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"Yier, you have to remember that you will get married sooner or later. Once you marry into your in-laws' family, your brother will be your support for the rest of your life. Only when your brother succeeds will your life in your in-laws' family be easy."

"I know mother."

After Huang Qiang, who was lying on the bed, got over his excitement, he continued his work. He never paid attention to matters at home.

Huang Yi went out of the house to feed the ducks in the backyard. Looking at the happy ducklings in front of her, she couldn't help being lost in thought.She is really envious of the younger sister of the Su family, she can recruit a husband to visit her in the future.In the past, Huang Yi also thought that a woman would marry off one day, but she never thought that a woman could recruit a husband to come to her home, and such a thing had never happened in the nearby ten miles and eight villages.And ever since he heard people in the village say that the girl of the Su family was going to recruit a husband in the future, his thoughts gradually changed.

Although the younger sister of the Su family is now engaged to Yu Zheng, and sooner or later she will marry into the Yu family, but given how much Uncle Su and Aunt Su dote on their daughter, she won't have a hard time marrying younger sister Su of the Yu family.I don't know when, a thought suddenly popped up in her mind, since a woman can invite a man to come to her door, why can't she?Since then, whenever her mother said that she would marry into her husband's family and could only rely on her younger brother, she would disapprove in her heart, but the habits she had developed over the years made her never disobey her mother. is what.

Su Yu was basking in the sun in the yard as usual, with a plate of dried fish on hand. He threw a few fish to entertain the two tigers when he had nothing to do. The Su family had long been accustomed to this.

Hearing the movement at the entrance of the courtyard, he saw Shopkeeper Niu getting off the carriage and quickly got up to greet him.

"Business Manager Niu, why are you here?"

You must know that Shopkeeper Niu is a very busy man and rarely leaves Taihe Building when there is nothing to do.

"I heard that Miss Su is ill, so I came here specially to check on her today."

Then he handed the snacks he was carrying to Mrs. Lian.

"I bought it on the way, Miss Su, try it."

Mrs. Lian was not polite and took over the kitchen house.

"Shop Manager Laoniu is thinking about me. He's fine now."

The two of them entered the courtyard while talking. The weather was nice today, so they simply sat in the courtyard.

"How is the shopkeeper's business during this time?"

"It's okay, just like usual."

After making tea, Lian went to the backyard to call Su Er Er.

"Head of the house, shopkeeper Niu is here."

As soon as Mr. Su heard that Shopkeeper Niu was coming, he put down his work and walked to the bucket beside him. Seeing him, Mrs. Lian stepped forward to scoop up a ladle of water for him to wash his hands.

"Why is shopkeeper Niu here?"

"I didn't know that I would be sitting in the front yard with my daughter right now."

While talking, the two of them had already walked to the front yard.

"Brother Niu, what kind of wind brings you here today?"

"I didn't hear you say Miss Su was ill, I'll come and take a look."

Su Laoer didn't expect that he would say that the other day, but shopkeeper Niu took it to heart.

Su Yu felt funny in her heart. His father really believed what he said. He probably thought she was the second best. The cattle shopkeeper came over today to have other things.

"I heard from my friend that your family has planted more than 20 acres of radishes in the back hill. Is this true?"

"That's right, I plan to plant something else, but it's not the time, so I will plant radishes for a season first."

When it came to other important points, Su Yu suddenly remembered what she had forgotten. There were only a few sorrel trees in the mountain. She was not allowed to nurse seedlings before planting them. How could she forget such an important thing? Fortunately, she thought about it now. Get up, if it takes a few more months, it will be too late.

Shopkeeper Niu also asked. Su Laoer usually only knows how to lower his head and do things. He couldn't think of such a way at the moment, so it must be Miss Su's intention.The longer we have known each other, the less shopkeeper Niu dared to underestimate the little girl in front of him. It is said that he and Su's second brother are called brothers and sisters. In terms of seniority, he should call Miss Su in front of him a big niece, but when facing Su Yu, this loud He couldn't call his niece.It seemed that the person sitting opposite him was not a teenage girl, but a competitor in the business field. You had to pay attention to him. Shopkeeper Niu had always had this feeling, and he couldn't figure out what it meant.

"I have one more thing to do today. When I went to your shop that day, brother Su sent some food from your shop. I think it's good to eat when I go back, so I want to buy some from you and take them to Kyoto."

Su Yu didn't expect that Shopkeeper Niu came today for this matter. When his father came back from town that day, he didn't hear him talk about it.

"Okay, how much does Mr. Niu want?"

"The bacon and sausages cost one thousand catties each, the preserved eggs and salted duck eggs each cost two thousand catties, the pork jerky costs two thousand catties, and the soap costs ten boxes."

Su Yu thought about the inventory at home.

"Yes, my family has stock in hand now, you can send a guy to my house to get it at any time, bacon sausage and dried pork are fifty cents a catty, preserved eggs are ten cents a catty, salted duck eggs are five cents a catty, soap ten cents a catty piece."

"Then at this price, I will ask the guy to come over tomorrow to get it. I brought the money today, so let's calculate how much it will cost first, and I will pay the money first."

Su Yu did some calculations in his mind and came up with the answer, but in order not to let Shopkeeper Niu notice, he waited a while before saying the price.

"The total is 250 taels."

Shopkeeper Niu also did some math in his mind just now.Su Yu's calculations were exactly the same as his, and he readily took out 250 taels of silver notes from his arms.

"Miss Su, if your family is doing something next time, you must notify me as soon as possible. It can't be like this time. I don't know until the shop has been open for so long."

"Okay, if there is any fresh food made at home that I want to sell, I will be the first to notify you, but I have two things here now."

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Second Su.

"Father, go and get a toothbrush and a brush."

Su Laoer heard that it was the same, so he went to the backyard warehouse and took one of the same.

When he came, he handed the things to Su Yu.

"This is my new one and not worth much. The hair on it is made of pig hair. It is specially used for brushing teeth. It is much easier to use than willow branches. The other one is for washing clothes. Both of them are easy to make. But the best thing is that it is easy to use and is a necessity of life. Everyone in the town can afford it. I plan to sell the toothbrush for ten cents each and the brush for twenty cents each. But there is one disadvantage. Anyone who has seen it will know how. Do it, but if you use it well, you can make money."
