Liu Laozhu took the money hesitantly:

"Don't you mean to pay it back when the caravan comes? Give me your time. Once I spend it, if you don't have enough, I won't be able to help you anymore."

Mrs. Xu used the firelight in the stove to glance at Liu Laozhu's hair, which has become increasingly sparse recently. Unlike Guan Erbald, who has only two strands left from east to west on the top of his head, Liu Laozhu has only one strand left on the back of his head.

cluster.

She can indeed continue to be "smart" and use Liu Laozhu's money to make money for her family. Anyway, she has already agreed in advance, and whether she wants to be a discerning person or not can only happen in a matter of seconds.

But every moment Liu Laozhu bends over to ask for help, she knows clearly that Liu Laozhu's "getting better" is still not pure. She also respects the old guy in front of her for his willingness to spare no efforts to work hard after he has a goal, even if there is a gap.

He struggled and never backed down.

It's really strange. This bad old man is obviously full of shortcomings, and his heart is half black. The more cooperative she is, the more she can find bright spots in the mess. And even she doesn't have this little bright spot.

, need to learn from Liu Laozhu.

"Here you go, take it. Go back and ask Tian Xin to copy the address of the batch of goods. Whatever is missing, I'll come back to buy it later when I make money. It's not just a one-time visit to Fucheng. It just so happened that my youngest followed me and asked him to write it down.

"

It's just that she won't come again in the near future.

Compared to this time when she was able to buy everything back, she was always a little worried about letting her son go out to buy things. Forget it, there are so many things that are perfect.

Liu Laozhu was so happy that he realized, yes, at least some of his family members will come again.

Before he had time to say congratulations, he heard what his elder brother had just said, which meant that he would order "cotton" again in the future.

Liu Laozhu realized that there was nothing to be embarrassed about and he happily hid the money in the cloth strip around his waist. He used the money to make a belt. He was so embarrassed that he also had a lot of money.

When I was hiding the money, I was thinking: Isn't the uncle the one who borrowed the money? Why did he have to be so careful about his face just now when collecting the debt?

It's so sad, he must have been bullied into a shadow by the eldest sister of the Xu family.

Liu Laozhu not only accepted the money without any psychological burden this time, but he also mentioned the next purchase: "Yes, when we get back to Fucheng, I will lead your warehouse to buy everywhere, and be sure to let him write down the route. This

Generally speaking, if something is sold out, let your three boys help replenish it, and our village can make more money. Otherwise, we will not have to sell out your cotton to eat, and the car will be empty on the way back."

To make a living, he had to calculate his accounts carefully. He didn't have to suffer hard when the cold weather came in November, and he decided not to travel far in the near future.

Mrs. Xu said disgustedly: "Hurry up and write me a receipt, don't forget to fingerprint it."

"You still need to write a receipt?" This means you don't trust him.

Yes, you just know?

Mrs. Xu put away the note and first urged Youcang and Liu Laozhu to go to bed quickly, but she opened the lid of the pot and stirred the porridge with a spoon.

The porridge needs to be cooked for at least two hours before it tastes mushy.

Tomorrow morning, big lump porridge with big pancakes and shepherd's purse pickles will be everyone's breakfast.

Compared with eating potatoes and sweet potatoes after bumpy roads for several days, this breakfast is already better.

I heard that Mr. Liu doesn’t charge for meals.

Not only did they confiscate it, but they also asked the two chefs to steam four drawers of pancakes in the empty big pot for them to take away at dawn.

Boss Liu said: If there are too many people from the village, he will accept them if they are close enough. But this time they are all the younger generations of the village, and there is only a table of villagers here. Logically, anyone who is an uncle in time for the New Year should be invited to dinner.

, not to mention that many of the younger generation have not seen each other for ten or eight years. They have grown so big in a flash that they don’t even dare to recognize them when they walk around. They haven’t eaten anything good, so how can they still pay for solid food? That’s not what the parents and elders want.

A poke in the spine. No matter how bad the uncle is, he is still capable of entertaining his nephews for home-cooked meals.

Boss Liu's reasons relieved Liu Laozhu, who didn't want to pay for the meal.

Old Mrs. Xu thought to herself: When she comes back from Fucheng, she will pass by here again. If Liu Laozhu still has money left at that time, before leaving, he will put the meal money on the kang of the house where they live, and let him know before leaving.

Qian Qiang stayed.

If Liu Laozhuhua’s pockets are cleaner than her face, she will wait for someone to come to her house next time to deliver the goods. Before departure, let everyone in the village collect gifts. Even if there are no good things for Liu Lao, just bring some.

Bring salted fish, drawer cloth, steamer or some extra woven baskets and bath buckets. You can't stay and eat empty-handed.

Mrs. Xu finished stirring the big ballast porridge and simmered it with a pot lid before going into the house and lying down.

At that time, Xu Tianxin was already sleeping soundly and soundly.

Mrs. Xu felt that her ears were full of snoring, and a boy was snoring half way through. She was so anxious that she couldn't breathe, so she could only half-close her eyes to rest.

I was thinking over and over again about what I should buy.

For example, six people have cotton-padded clothes and trousers, and they have to buy cotton and cloth. Cotton is several times more expensive than refined salt. In my impression, cotton retails for 400 yuan per pound in town. How much does it cost for six people?

I also want to make a double quilt for Youliang and Qinniang’s house.

The couple hugged each other and got angry, but they didn't need to change the cotton quilt core. The quilt core was made of catkins, and the mattress under them was made of Kang mats and straw mats for the heated Kang.

But the quilt cover in the second child's room had to be replaced, because Qin Niang had patched it up into diamond-shaped patches. The smallest piece of cloth was only as big as the palm of your hand, and it wasn't even enough to patch up the knees. It looked too sad.

Besides, if they don't change it, the couple will break it if they just kick their feet.

On the other hand, the other two boys had nothing in their room, from pants to quilts.

In fact, Mrs. Xu originally planned to make cotton quilt cores, quilt covers and mattresses, and even the mattresses would be replaced with cotton. However, she paid forty taels of the debt in advance, and she still had to tear out so much cloth for a few hundred yuan per pound of cotton.

In addition, I have to buy wine, pepper, aniseed and other things for the restaurant, which I really can’t afford to change at once.

We can only say it depends on the situation.

Early the next morning, a group of people from Erdaohe Village set out.

As soon as Mrs. Xu and the others left, Boss Liu ordered his nephew to deliver some fish floss to the inn diagonally opposite.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Yi Cheng found time to come.

Boss Liu asked his brother why he was so busy. Yi Cheng said that he was busy replacing all the inns with new ones, and also gave Boss Liu a few words to prepare more quilts for the mattress.

Then Yi Cheng asked: "The one you sent to me this morning is really unique craftsmanship? How to sell it?"

Boss Liu: "To tell you the truth, brother, six taels of silver per jar, you should be smart enough to know that this is very good, six taels cannot be lower, brother wholesale to others eight taels, retail at the official inn for ten
