Chapter 22

Jiang Duyue felt much more at ease, and after finishing drawing the remaining zodiac patterns, Jiang Duyue didn't wait long and said goodbye to Liang Xiangru directly.Before leaving, Liang Xiangru specially packed two boxes of snacks for Xiao Nian, and Jiang Duyue accepted it calmly.

After leaving the Fairy Embroidery Workshop, Jiang Shouren couldn't help but said: "Mother, did your embroidery really sell for a tael of silver?"

"It's true, I was dreaming just now, but it's true." Han Qingmei spread out her hands, revealing a tael of silver that had been soaked by her own sweat.

Seeing Yin Zi, Jiang Shouren was shocked again, and then started to giggle, and Han Qingmei also giggled.

Looking at the two of them, Jiang Duyue couldn't help but rolled her eyes, and poured cold water on Jiang Shouren's head: "Father, this tael of money was earned by mother, so don't even think about taking it." Go make a dowry for the elder sister!"

Jiang Shouren couldn't help laughing on the spot, and said awkwardly, "I didn't think so, I definitely couldn't do this."

"Then how do you plan to get the one tael together? Five days, if you count yesterday, then there are only four days left." Jiang Duyue continued to destroy Jiang Shouren's mood.

Jiang Shouren's mood almost plummeted from the sky to the ground in an instant. It can be said to have plummeted.

That's right, listening to my mother's tone, I will definitely not take back those words. If I can't get the money by then, what should I do?
Here Jiang Shouren was debating, while Han Qingmei and his wife over there were having a heated discussion about the one tael of silver.

"Mother, what are you going to do with this tael of silver?" Jiang Duyue asked with a smile.

Xiaonian also looked at Han Qingmei expectantly, it was the first time he saw so much money!
Han Qingmei glanced at Jiang Shouren with some hesitation and embarrassment, and finally decided to listen to Xiaoyue's words and not send the two silver coins to the old house as Xiaowan's dowry.

But Han Qingmei immediately thought of the fact that she said she earned the money by selling embroidery, but she also knew that shopkeeper Liang was willing to buy her embroidery because of Xiaoyue's face.

Immediately, Han Qingmei put the money into Jiang Duyue's hand: "Xiaoyue, you earned this money, you decide how to spend it!"

"Mother, isn't this the money you earned from selling embroidery? How could it be earned by my sister?" Xiaonian blinked in confusion.

Because of these actions, Jiang Duyue had a better impression of this cheap mother, and she firmly put the money back into Han Qingmei's palm, "Mother, this is the money you paid for selling embroidery, and it should be up to you to decide." Its purpose! And mother also knows, I didn't come out empty-handed..."

As he said that, Jiang Duyue also patted the place where he hid the bank notes pointedly.

When Han Qingmei remembered that Xiaoyue had made 50 taels of silver all of a sudden, she became a little excited and unsteady, feeling even more proud and happy than she had made the money.

And seeing her daughter think about herself like this, Han Qingmei no longer cared about the one tael of silver: "Okay, since Xiaoyue said so, then the one tael of silver is up to mother to decide."

"Then mother, tell me what you want to do." Jiang Duyue also looked full of interest, making money with his own hands, this feeling is really wonderful.

Han Qingmei thought about it seriously, before she was worried about food for the family, now that she has money, the first thing that comes to her mind is naturally: "Let's go buy some noodles and rice first, and also vegetables, now The vegetable plot at home is vacant, so it must be planted as soon as possible."

"Then how much does it cost?" Jiang Duyue still doesn't know much about the consumption level here.

"White flour costs nine Wen a catty, and inferior white rice costs seven Wen a catty. Let's not buy too much at one time, let's buy 300 catties each, but it will cost more than [-] Wen. As for vegetables, A few pennies are enough, but you don't need to spend too much." Han Qingmei murmured in a low voice.

Jiang Duyue silently wrote down the price. She remembered that one tael of silver in ancient times was probably equal to one thousand Wen: "Then there are still more than 600 Wen left? The rest of Qian Niang plans to make money." what?"

"The remaining mothers haven't made up their minds yet, do you have anything you want to buy?" Han Qingmei shook her head and looked at the two children.

In the past, the family had no money and couldn't afford snacks at all. Even if the child's uncle bought some back home, it still couldn't reach the mouths of the two children. Now that Han Qingmei finally has her own money, she naturally wants to buy some snacks for the children. .

Xiaonian's eyes lit up when he heard the words, but soon dimmed again. Although he really wanted to eat delicious food, it was not easy for his mother to make money, and there must be a lot of things to buy, so how could he ask for it? What about the unnecessary stuff?
Jiang Duyue took the expressions of the two of them into his eyes, felt pity in his heart, and suggested with a smile: "Mom, why don't we buy some meat and go home today, our family hasn't had any meat for a long time."

Although Jiang Duyue has not been here for a long time, this conclusion can be easily deduced from the current situation.

"Okay, then let's go buy meat later!" Although Han Qingmei felt a little distressed about spending money, since the child said so, she would not be reluctant. After all, she made money to let the two children live comfortably. better.

Over there, Jiang Shouren was still worried, and when he heard the three girls talking happily, he felt even more sour. He was also a member of the family, so why didn't they come to ask him what he thought?
But when he thought about all the past, Jiang Shouren immediately found the answer, he blamed his previous actions for chilling his wife and children, otherwise he wouldn't have been isolated like this.

Jiang Duyue, Han Qingmei, and Xiaonian discussed for a while before realizing that there was still one thing they hadn't done: "Mother, do you know where the biggest restaurant in this town is?"

"The biggest restaurant? Mother knows that there is a restaurant on the street in front of it. It seems that the business is quite good. It seems to be called 'Fugui Restaurant', but I don't know if it is the largest restaurant in the town," Han Qingmei gave the answer vaguely Then, he looked at Jiang Shouren again, "Father, you come to town a lot, do you know which is the biggest restaurant in our town?"

As soon as he heard his wife calling him, Jiang Shouren's depressed mood immediately improved a lot, and he replied almost immediately: "That Fugui restaurant is very big, Xiaoyue, what are you going to do?"

When Jiang Duyue saw the expression of cheap father, she was a little happy at once, because how to look at this expression, there is a kind of flattering and cautious taste: "I want to ask them if they have shepherd's purse and amaranth, since father and mother are both If you say it’s good there, let’s go and ask first.”

"That's a restaurant, do they want this kind of thing?" Han Qingmei already knew that the delicious wild vegetable she ate yesterday was called shepherd's purse, but she always felt that it would be okay to eat at home, if it was put in a restaurant Here, I'm afraid people won't want it.

Jiang Duyue shrugged, everything needs to be tried, and the result of trying may be failure, so you can continue to find new ways; but if you don't try, you will definitely regret it.

Besides, in this case, it wouldn't do me any harm to try.

Jiang Shouren and Han Qingmei saw Jiang Duyue's face full of confidence, so they didn't say anything more. On the contrary, Xiaonian strode forward with full confidence, as if they had seen success right in front of them.

Arriving at Fugui Restaurant, Jiang Duyue wanted to go in directly through the main entrance, but when he reached the entrance, he was stopped by a waiter: "Little girl, this is Fugui Restaurant, a place where rich people eat, did you go to the wrong place?" gone?"

"Big brother, I didn't go to the wrong place. I just want to go to the Fugui Restaurant." Jiang Duyue looked at the waiter pretending to be ignorant, and said innocently, "And what you said is wrong, big brother. The person who went into the Fugui Restaurant It doesn't have to be a rich person, otherwise why would you be standing here?"

What Jiang Duyue said was naive, but in fact, he was insinuating that this person looked down on others and had no one in his eyes.

The guy choked, and said coldly: "Go, go, kid, don't make trouble here!"

As she said that, she wanted to reach out to push Jiang Duyue. Han Qingmei looked at it, and hurriedly stepped forward, protecting Jiang Duyue behind her: "Little brother, how could you do anything to a child? Besides, my little girl Yue came here because he really had something to do, how can there be any reason not to let people in?"

In fact, Han Qingmei felt a little inferior and timid after hearing what the guy said just now, but when she saw Jiang Duyue being bullied, Han Qingmei stood up without hesitation.

Looking at the cheap mother who suddenly looked taller in front of her, and the cheap father standing behind with an embarrassed face, Jiang Duyue couldn't help curling her lips, this is the gap!

The clerk looked Han Qingmei up and down, and saw that the other person was wearing coarse clothes, but the trousers were patched, and his expression became even more contemptuous: "You dare to make trouble here if you don't have money to eat, don't get in the way, Interfere with our business!"

Han Qingmei's face turned red when she was told, but she still stood firmly in front of Jiang Duyue: "Then you shouldn't talk like that..."

"Hey, madam, what do you want me to say?" The man raised his eyebrows and exaggeratedly shouted such a sentence, which made Han Qingmei even more speechless.

Jiang Duyue glanced at Father Cheap again, this is the situation, does this person still pretend to be a passerby?

In fact, Jiang Shouren was also very conflicted at this time. As a man, he certainly didn't want to see his wife and children being embarrassing; .

"Father!" Xiaonian looked at Jiang Shouren very disappointed.

Being looked at by Xiaonian like this, Jiang Shouyi finally gritted his teeth and stood up: "My little brother, my daughter really wants to ask something, that's why she wants to go in, can I trouble you, little brother, to let us in ask?"

"Where did this country bumpkin come from? He dared to come here to act wildly. Could it be that he wanted to go in and eat for nothing?"

Jiang Duyue is not a bully, the reason why she endured silently until now is to see how contemptuous this cheap father really is, so at this moment, she directly answered: "Am I a bumpkin? I can't help it." As far as you are concerned, you are just a little guy, but you are so rude to the guests, is this the way of hospitality in your Fugui restaurant?"

"It's the way to treat guests, can you be regarded as guests?" The man smiled contemptuously.

Jiang Duyue narrowed her eyes slightly, and said loudly on purpose: "As the saying goes, people should not be judged by their appearance. What's the reason for you to conclude that we are poor just because we are poorly dressed? I didn't expect that the guys in Fugui Restaurant judged people by their appearance like this. Then, when everyone enters the door, don’t they have to take out their silver taels and show it to you before they can go in?”

"You..." The buddy didn't expect this little baby to be so sharp-tongued, which made him a little speechless, and suddenly became angry from embarrassment, "Get out of here quickly, don't get in the way here!"
