girl, she opened her mouth to see money

Chapter 313 Ask

In the autumn rainy weather, Tao Yongcheng was sitting by the fire under the eaves, and asked his older sister Ji, who was sitting beside him, "It's getting colder and colder now, has the second child not been at home for a while? What is he busy with?" "

Sister Ji saw Tao Yongcheng's expression, and said with a smile: "Two days ago, Liu Niang went to the second room. I heard that these days, the second brother is in his second brother's shop in the morning, and he has to wait until before lunch. home."

Tao Yongcheng was very displeased and said: "Nonsense, he is a grandfather, and he guards the shop with his granddaughter. If this is spread, what will others think of our family?"

Sister Ji glanced at him: "Don't worry. I'll go to the second room in the afternoon and ask the second brother and sister what they mean first. If the second brother and sister persuade him, the second brother probably won't go again."

Tao Yongcheng stopped talking. Sister Ji looked at the wet ground and sighed secretly in her heart. She didn't quite understand Tao Yongcheng's mood now, and it was often elusive due to the wind and rain.

In the afternoon, sister Ji went to the second room. She sat under the eaves and talked with Ping Sanshun, and soon mentioned Tao Yongneng's going to guard the shop. The child is naturally left to him."

Sister Ji could tell that Ping Sanshun supported Tao Yongneng to go to the store for a while, so she felt a little embarrassed and said: "Father Quan'er knows that the second child will go out in rainy days, he is a little worried, let me come and have a look."

Ping Sanshun looked at Sister Ji's face, and sighed: "Big brother has a heart for Liang'er dad. It's just something he decided on, and we have to wait until he has no interest in going to the store after a while. Let's persuade him again." he."

After listening to what Ping Sanshun said, sister Ji agreed with her heart and said: "Father Quan'er now appreciates the rain, and he doesn't like what I said. I can only let him blow the cold wind and sit under the eaves to watch. rain."

After so many years, it is rare for their sisters-in-law to have a common language. When they mentioned some hobbies of men, they both showed conflicted expressions.

Ping Sanshun appeased Sister Ji and said: "Sister-in-law, think about these hobbies of elder brother, you don't need to spend any money, just sit under the eaves and blow the cold wind.

I heard people say that when some men are old, they like to invite a few people they know, sit in a teahouse, drink a pot of tea, eat a few pastries, and call the storyteller in the teahouse with others. Reward a few coppers. "

"Your elder brother, no one invites him to the teahouse. If someone invites him, he might also like to go to the teahouse to drink tea. He likes all elegant things now, and drinking tea is also an elegant thing for him."

Ping Sanshun looked at her in disbelief: "A few days ago, some old men from the Fu family came to call Liang'er's father. It's just that Liang'er's father went there once before, drank a lot of tea, and kept talking in a low voice. Voice, he felt that it was not interesting, so he refused the invitation of others."

Sister Ji secretly sighed in her heart, Tao Yongcheng used to be busy with family affairs, he had contacts with people from the Fu family, but they were always not far or near.

"I don't know whether they have come to call your elder brother. Your elder brother never likes me to ask him about the outside world, and I am used to not asking about anything."

On the way home, sister Ji suddenly remembered that she hadn't finished what Tao Yong had promised. She stopped and thought about it, and went home directly.

The first snow fell, Tao Yongcheng hadn't waited for Tao Yongneng, he felt a little irritable, and said to sister Ji: "Go to the second room and see what big things the second child is busy with these days?"

Sister Ji looked at him angrily: "Go, you go by yourself. I won't do such shameless things at my age.

At the second child's age, as long as he doesn't do anything outrageous, we brothers and sisters-in-law can't say much. "

Tao Yongcheng was so angry that he stood up, and soon he sat down again, holding his head up: "He doesn't get angry with me, I think it's good. Hmph."

A few days ago, Tao Yongneng had time to visit Tao Yongcheng, but he and Tao Yongcheng made a bet that he would rather guard the shop with his children and grandchildren than go to the long house to provoke Tao Yongcheng.

These days, some regular customers came to the shop to talk to Tao Yongneng after they knew about Tao Yongneng's carving skills.

Tao Yongneng had no other thoughts in order to catch up with the work.He went to the shop now as a way to relax. By the way, his mind has broadened, and his carving skills have improved, which is a complete surprise to him.

The Tao Weiyun brothers and sisters are also used to Tao Yongneng doing carving work in the shop in the morning. When customers come to the shop, they will also speak in a low voice. After coming and going, Tao Qingbi also made a lot of business.

Tao Yongneng now understands Tao Zuoran's words, Tao Qingbi has no other skills in doing business, she treats customers with sincerity, and in exchange for their trust.

In winter snowy weather, Ying Brown Tang entered the shop, and when she saw Tao Yongneng, she respectfully greeted Tao Yongneng.

Tao Qingbi accompanied her out of the shop as usual, and the two started playing on the snow. Ying Hongtang smiled and said to Tao Qingbi, "Niuniu, before the Chinese New Year, Ying Ziqin will come home."

Tao Qingbi looked at her: "My brother probably won't come back to celebrate the New Year, my eldest brother and fourth brother will rush to the provincial capital to celebrate the New Year with him."

Ying Hongtang looked up at the sky, then quickly lowered her head, blinked hard, and complained to Tao Qingbi: "Niuniu, snowflakes got into my eyes."

Tao Qingbi looked at her closely, seeing her tears in her eyes, he couldn't help laughing out loud: "Brown Tang, hahaha, you blink hard, the tears will come out and nothing will happen."

After Ying Brown Tang wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, she asked Tao Qingbi, "Niu Niu, I heard people say that your new spinning wheel doesn't take up much space and is easy to move, right?"

Tao Qingbi smiled and nodded: "My father said that this medium-sized spinning wheel is suitable for ordinary people's household. If there is a need in the fabric shop, a large spinning wheel is more useful."

"Niuniu, how about I learn how to weave now?"

Tao Qingbi looked at her curiously: "Is there someone willing to teach you how to weave?"

Ying Hongtang shook her head: "I just think that after I know how to weave, my family doesn't need to go outside to buy fabrics."

"Your future husband's family lives in a field outside the city, does the family have the skill of raising silkworms?"

Ying Hongtang still shook her head, and Tao Qingbi looked at her: "Brown Tang, you still have to buy the silk you need for weaving, and you also need to work hard to weave. If you think it's worth it, I think it's okay. Learning one more craft is always worth it. Good."

"My mother doesn't approve of me learning weaving now. She thinks that I need time now to prepare the dowry carefully. My mother said that after I get married, I will look at the needs of my husband's family. What do you think?"

Tao Qingbi looked at her: "I don't really understand what's going on here, but I don't think my aunt will harm you."
