my grandmother

Chapter 237
Seeing the weaving workshops in Pingjiang City get busy again, Yu Dalang stood in the corner of the counter in the Yujia cloth shop diagonally across from Yueyang cloth shop, looking at the people coming and going diagonally across from Yueyang cloth shop, feeling depressed.

When the weaving workshops outside the city of Pingjiang stopped working, he thought it was an opportunity, but he really didn't dare to move at that time. Later, when he heard that Yueyang had bought a lot of weavers, and later harvested autumn silkworm cocoons, He was almost sure, but both his mother-in-law and his wife said he was too stupid and bold, especially his wife.

Yu Dalang glanced back at Grandma Wu who was half sitting and half lying in the chair.

Grandma Wu was eating dried persimmons, looking at the busy man, stroking her abdomen lovingly with one hand, she was pregnant, but she hadn't shown her pregnancy yet, so she had to stroking her from time to time to remind everyone who could see her.

Pregnant people are precious, but they cannot withstand collisions.

Seeing that the clerk had to carefully bypass Grandma Wu back and forth, Yu Dalang shouted impatiently, "Don't sit there and get in the way. Go home, don't run to the shop every day."

"Hey! I don't come to the shop every day. Who will watch our shop? You can go as you please, but if you don't, I will look at you and keep your eyes on the outside." Grandma Wu thought about the Yueyang Cloth Village across the street. , with a snort,
Da Lang must still be thinking about the second son of the Li family, she has to watch!

"What are you looking at? Are you able to sell goods or account for it?" Yu Dalang was in a bad mood and became angry.

"If I can sell the goods and pay the bills, why do I need them?"

Grandma Wu threw the persimmon cake at a guy.Standing up with the armrests of the chair, walking to the side of Yu Dalang with his waist, and following Yu Dalang's gaze, he stretched his head out to look out.

"You've been here looking at it for a long time, what are you looking at! In the past two months, the only one who came and went in that shop was Mrs. Yin, and no one else!"

Grandma Wu glanced sideways at Yu Dalang from the Yueyang Ship opposite, her words were stinging.

"They're all off to harvest autumn silkworm cocoons." Yu Dalang was so focused on making money that he didn't hear the thorn in his wife's words.

Grandma Wu's face suddenly darkened, and she leaned towards Yu Dalang sideways.

Where did the second son of the Li family go? He knew very well!This is what I keep in mind and ask about it all the time!How dare he tell her!
Grandma Wu bit her lip and was thinking about how to beat, when Yu Dalang continued:
"I said to buy a few weavers and harvest some autumn silkworm cocoons. You stop it with all your strength. Look at this, look at it! Yueyang must have collected a lot of autumn silkworm cocoons this time. You don't have to do anything, just turn your hands around." Selling it to a weaving workshop is a big profit! Later, with this big profit, his family will drive down the price of fine cloth, how can we keep up with it!"

The more Yu Dalang talked, the more angry he became.

Grandma Wu let out a hiccup, was stunned for a moment, and asked with a frown, "How do you know they can make a lot of money? Maybe it's in their hands. Miao's mother asked about it, and said that the weaving workshop won't be able to open for a year and a half!"

"The weaving workshop has already started." Yu Dalang became even more angry, turned around and left.

"Work started? Hey, don't go!" Grandma Wu rushed to catch up.

....................................

There were still two days before the stove sacrifice, and as the evening approached, Li Yuzhu and Li Jinzhu rushed home one after the other.

The house suddenly became lively.

Li Yuzhu arrived home first, and Ah Wu and Li Xiaonan had just come back from fishing by the lake. Ah Wu had just lined up the fishing rods and lines behind the screen wall. When he heard the movement, he stretched his head and saw that it was Li Yuzhu, and hurriedly shouted, Welcoming him out of the courtyard gate, he took a big bamboo basket from the coachman and carried it on his shoulder.

Sister Mei rushed out first, letting Ah Wu grab the bag from Li Yuzhu's hand, talking and laughing, "I just told Ah Nan when you will come back, and you came back right after the words were spoken! Is it cold? Are you exhausted? Bar?"

Yuting and Li Xiaonan rushed out one after the other.

"First go to the house first, it's cold outside." Sister Mei stuffed the bag into Yuting, and while pushing Li Yuzhu inside, she patted Li Yuzhu from top to bottom to dust Li Yuzhu.

"Sister Mei, don't shoot, you can see that ashes are flying on me." Li Xiaonan laughed.

Sister Mei is very strong now, and it hurts to shoot.

"No, look at me, I am confused when I am happy. Come in and sit down, wash your face first, take off your clothes and wash them. Ah Nan will make tea for your second sister, make your tea, that tea is good Drink." Sister Mei trotted towards the kitchen, and came over with a large copper pot of hot water.

Surrounded by everyone, Li Yuzhu took off his overcoat, washed his hands and face, sat down to drink tea, looked around, and asked, "Where's your brother? Is school on vacation?"

"It's a holiday, there is a literary meeting today, and there are night tours and so on." Li Xiaonan replied.

Li Yuzhu drank the tea in one gulp, and motioned to Yuting, "That bamboo basket is all Nana's favorite food, take it out quickly, don't crush it."

"Second Sister bought them all? You bought so many?" Li Xiaonan's eyes widened in surprise.

Her elder sister wanted to break a copper coin into two pieces. When her eldest sister broke the copper coin, her second elder sister watched closely. If any scum was dropped, she had to pick it up.

The second elder sister actually bought so many of her favorite foods?

Everything she likes to eat is very expensive!

"Where do you have spare money to buy snacks, they are all given to you by various schools, saying that you have eaten at their houses and love them. In the schools I went to, every family has what you like to eat, and every family eats it. Yes?" Li Yuzhu looked at Li Xiaonan and asked.

Ah Wu laughed, "She even purposely went around to have another meal!"

"Second Sister is so thirsty, I'll pour you another glass. How is Second Sister's trip? Have you started preparing for the new year? Are you all going to have a good New Year?" Li Xiaonan took the glass with an attentive expression. Make tea for Second Sister.

"They are all poor families, and the New Year's bonus is enough for the New Year. There are many gifts from the students in each school, and they have everything." Li Yuzhu was talking, watching Yuting take things out of the bamboo basket, He signaled: "I have written a note about which school it belongs to, and you can show it to Ah Nan."

Yuting handed all kinds of food to Li Xiaonan, and Li Xiaonan watched while listening to the second elder sister.

"There are more than a dozen schools saying that they will be closed for one or two days in the [-]th day of the year, and there will be no students in these two days. I replied as you said: These are all arranged by themselves. The number of students in each school is in that booklet. There, there are many more people than the previous trip.

"On the way, I ran into four aunts and two sisters-in-law several times. The business of credit looms was very busy, and they said that they would not be able to return home until 2728.

"It is said that there are not enough looms to make it, and about the looms, you have to ask the master of the Hong family later.

"I met Aunt Lobby on the way. She came back from Yangzhou and took a short journey. She went back to Lijiaji. Aunt Lobby said, when we return to Lijiaji, she will tell you about the cotton thread in detail."

"Ah Wu, Sister Mei!"

A shout from outside the gate interrupted Li Yuzhu's words, and Ah Wu jumped out, "Elder Sister is back!"

The crowd rushed out, surrounded Li Jinzhu, and entered the main room talking and laughing.
