Chapter 53 Buying Materials

When Ma saw Jiang Ning, she immediately remembered the last time she took crucian carp. If Jiang Ningfei hadn't said that An Yongliang and his wife didn't pay, she would have eaten the fish long ago.

This time when he saw Jiang Ning's hands were empty and there seemed to be nothing in his backpack, he immediately grimaced and was about to slam the door.

Jiang Ning was the first to hold the door frame, "We are here to buy things from Mr. An, Mr. An, Mrs. An, are you at home?"

Knowing Ma's virtue, she deliberately stretched her neck and shouted into the yard.

Ma was so angry that she cursed, "What are you doing! You are not welcome here!"

Ms. Hu trotted out with her child in her arms, and hurried over to open the door, "Auntie, it's you! I'm going to the market today. My husband-in-law is out. He will be back later. You guys come in first and sit down."

Madam Ma was still standing there, Madam Hu immediately darkened her face and said, "Auntie, this is my home, I make the decision, you give way, you are blocking the way!"

Her tone was unkind, and Mr. Ma immediately rolled up his sleeves and started to argue with Mr. Hu.

Mrs. Hu didn't argue with her. She put down the child and started pushing and pushing her out.

Mr. Ma stubbornly refused to leave, "I'm telling you Mr. Hu! Don't think that you can take charge of An Yongliang's house without your parents-in-law! This time Fangfang will have to come up with two hundred yuan if she wants to kiss him. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." "

Mrs. Hu pushed her out of the door harder and harder. The child was so frightened that she cried loudly. It took a lot of effort for her to close the door tightly.

Ma scolded him outside for a while before leaving.

Zhang and He Hua looked embarrassed. They were not here to buy anything, but they bumped into this scene. It was hard to explain.

Mrs. Hu breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the child and led the three of them into the house. She smiled sheepishly and said: "My husband-in-law is a little unreasonable and makes you laugh. By the way, what do you want to buy this time? What if? I can decide what I have at home, but if I don’t have anything at home, I can only wait until my husband-in-law comes back."

Jiang Ning sat down and said, "I want some cloth for making quilts. I don't know what the price is at An Guolang. If it's suitable, I'll buy more."

When Mrs. Hu heard this, she wanted to buy fabrics again. She immediately became interested. After putting the child down, she went out to pour three bowls of hot water for the three of them.

As soon as she left, Ms. Zhang asked in a low voice: "An Ning, do you really want to buy something? Don't spend money randomly!"

Jiang Ning smiled and shook his head, "I'm serious, An Guolang has a lot of good products here, which are of high quality and low price. I missed a good piece of material last time, and it cost ten cents per foot. It must be sold for at least twenty or thirty cents outside!"

"It's really so cheap!" Both Zhang and He Hua were a little surprised.

Mrs. Hu came in and found that the three women were looking at her with hot eyes. She felt confused and said, "Auntie, this time is really timely. The autumn harvest has just passed. My husband-in-law said that everyone must start preparing clothes for winter, so he came in specially. We buy winter cloth, which is warm and thick. Of course, new cloth is definitely expensive. We only purchase more than 20 cash, so one foot costs 30 cash."

Zhang and He Hua couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when they heard this. Mrs. Hu took in their reactions, smiled, and said: "But this is the price of new cloth. My husband knew that many people would be reluctant to spend this money, so he made a special trip and asked the traveling merchants in Fucheng. , no, he actually came across one. It was said to be two boxes of old cloth left over from last year. It got wet due to walking on the waterway. It was not discovered in time at the time. By the time it was discovered, it was all dry, leaving a residue that could not be removed. The water stains are particularly ugly in circles.

I ran a big cloth shop, and the people who came in and out were rich people. I didn't like this kind of material, so I just went to the lower counties and towns to try selling it. My husband-in-law received a big box, and everyone was acquaintances. Auntie has also helped us. If you want it, I will definitely give you the lowest price. "

Jiang Ning and the other three were all moved.

Mrs. Hu immediately went to the back room to get the goods. There were more than 30 pieces of materials in various colors. There were at least six or seven colors to choose from. Each piece was almost one foot long and five feet wide. It was very suitable for making a quilt cover. If it was not enough, it could be used. When put together, there is a lot of room for manipulation.

Jiang Ning was very surprised. He spread out a piece of material and found that it did have the water-stained circles on it, like ripples, which the nurse said. This was indeed not very good-looking in their opinion, but in Jiang Ning's view, this kind of material could be directly regarded as the material that comes with it. Texture has no effect.

Mrs. Hu saw that she liked it and immediately said: "If you want it, ma'am, I will give you fourteen cents per foot. If you want more, I can give you a cent cheaper."

If Jiang Ning hesitated for even a second now, she would feel sorry for Mrs. Hu. She immediately said: "My family is going to build a new house. We don't have anything. All the quilts are made again, and the quilt cover is made of your material. There are seven people in my family." , my parents-in-law have a family of nine, and they need to keep two beds as spares, along with the mattresses. You can calculate how much we need."

"Hiss!" Mrs. Hu took a breath of air, "Auntie! You need a lot of ingredients!"

Jiang Ning nodded slightly, "In addition to making quilts and mattresses, I also want to buy some more materials for my family to make clothes for them to wear during the Chinese New Year this year!"

This time, Zhang and He Hua almost dropped their jaws. Whose family in the village had every child wearing new clothes during the New Year? After all, what the eldest child can’t wear is given to the second child, what the second child can’t wear is given to the third child, and what the third child can’t wear is passed on to the next one, one by one, until the new clothes become old clothes. Jiang Ning really wants to wear them for all the children. Put on new clothes, and you don’t know what gossip will be spread in the village!

Mrs. Zhang said with some worry: "Would you be too conspicuous by doing this?"

Jiang Ning shook his head, "Why are you so eye-catching? You don't know the situation of my family. In the past few years, I never thought about living a good life, and the children didn't care about it. Now that I have woken up, can I think of ways to make them happy? Besides, Now, my boss is working outside to make money, so I have to make him a new set of clothes!
  Erdan is busy with everything at home. He has worked so hard for a whole year and doesn’t even have a new set of clothes. It’s unreasonable! The boss and the second child are both there, but what will the next few think without them? The most important thing is that they don't even have any clothes that are not old or new! "

Zhang and He Hua thought about the Yang Datou brothers and sisters. It seemed that they had never worn new clothes. Moreover, they had runny noses all year round and were as dirty as wild monkeys. It was only during this period that they tidied up decently. a little.

Since Jiang Ning wanted to buy so much material, Hu calculated the price at thirteen cents per foot.

Zhang and He Hua immediately gritted their teeth and pulled out a few feet of material. Zhang wanted to prepare one for Yang Xiao, while He Hua wanted to prepare one for each of the two children.

After buying the ingredients, everyone was happy.

Jiang Ning then said to Mrs. Zhang: "We are already acquaintances after doing business. If you want to ask anything, just ask. Madam An is very safe. If she agrees, it will definitely be good."

Jiang Ning's words were very helpful to Mrs. Hu. She smiled sheepishly and said, "Madam, please stop praising me. I'm too embarrassed to see anyone. What do you want to ask?"
