Chapter 257
Liu's old face was flushed with embarrassment, she coughed unnaturally, raised her hand to straighten the broken hair on her sideburns, and then whispered: "Our workshop earned more than 900 taels of silver last year..."

"There are so many!" Li Shou was also surprised when he heard this.Although I knew that the workshop at home made a lot of money, I didn't expect to make so much money.

In order to alleviate the awkward atmosphere in the room, Li Mingyue also interjected at the right time: "Father, we were just talking about it. Now that the family is making money, do we have to build a big house with blue bricks? After all, my brother is not young. I bought a house so that I could marry him a daughter-in-law."

"I know how to arrange your brother." Liu Shi gave Li Mingyue a look with a smile.

Li Shou looked up and looked around, it was really not suitable to use this house as Li Mingzhi's wedding room.

After a little thought, Li Shou made a final decision.

"Okay, let's build it. After the new year is over and we are busy with spring plowing, we will start construction. Then we will build a few more rooms, so that you and your sisters will not be crowded into one room... Well, we need to build a study room come out."

Li Minglan fantasized about the appearance of the new house, and couldn't help interjecting: "Then the windows in my room should be opened wider, so that the room is so bright, just like Xiuxian's house."

For the rest, Li Mingyue didn't have any ideas yet, the only thing was that there must be a bathroom.Taking a bath here in winter is too difficult. I can only boil hot water and squat in the kitchen with a wooden basin to wash... Taking a bath is like suffering, and I don’t enjoy it at all.

"By the way, build a bathroom, which is a room specially used for bathing. Build a large pot to boil water, buy a few large wooden barrels, and build a fire wall, so that bathing in winter is convenient."

Li Shou nodded in good temper and said, "Okay, these fathers don't know much about it. After the Chinese New Year, let's find a craftsman to ask."

……

The end of the year is approaching, and every household is also busy.

This is the first Spring Festival since Li Shou's family established their own family, which is of great significance.Mrs. Liu attaches great importance to it and wants to do her best.

The New Year's Eve dinner was prepared two days in advance. Mrs. Liu led Li Minglan to make egg dumplings and fried meatballs.

Seeing that there were still half a bag of peanuts at home, Li Mingyue asked Li Mingzhi to drive the carriage to the town to buy some sugar, sesame seeds, maltose and dried osmanthus, and spent an afternoon making a pot of crispy and sweet peanut crisps, which filled the room. It's a sweet aroma.

The three little ones at home sat eagerly in front of the big stove all afternoon, and when the peanut crisps came out of the pot, the three little ones couldn't bear the sleepiness and fell asleep.

Li Mingzhi, who happened to pass by, became the first "sugar eater"... Li Mingzhi, who ate two pieces of peanut crisps, gave a very high evaluation.

"Well, it really is my sister. Everything is delicious. This peanut cake is much more delicious than those candy snacks sold in the county."

Li Minglan tasted a piece, and also praised the taste, "Sweet and crispy, it's really delicious. Yue'er, let's make some and sell them."

This idea is exactly the same as last year's Li Mingyue, but this moment, that moment.

"Just take it out and sell it. It's fun during the Chinese New Year. Maybe I have to set up a stall and sell it for a day. I'll make another pot later. It's good to entertain those little dolls when visiting relatives in the first month. "

Li Mingyue cut a piece of kraft paper, took the batter, pasted a few paper bags, packed some and gave it away.

Aunt Zhou's family next door, Li Shouyi's family, the old patriarch's family, Li Quangui's family, Song Hai's family...every family in the village who is close to each other gave a small bag.

Li Shouyi's family and the old patriarch's family were sent by Li Shou himself.In addition to a bag of peanut crisps, another five catties of vermicelli, five catties of sausages, and a pack of dim sum were given.

The annual ceremony is second, and the most important thing is the heart.The old patriarch was both gratified and grateful, for such a good child, it is very pitiful that his father does not love his mother.
