Chapter 148 Discovering Talent
Yu Maimai smiled slightly: "We are all neighbors, so why be so polite, take it, your life is not easy."

Chen Yan'er was also embarrassed by what happened to her just now, she glanced at Maimai, blushed and said, "Auntie, I'm sorry, just now, yes, we misunderstood auntie, in fact, my sister-in-law is really stingy, always thinking I took money from my mother, but I was reluctant to give a penny to my family."

Yu Maimai looked at Chen Yan'er, and said in a low voice: "Yan'er, think about it now, in fact, how difficult it is for your mother, raising the two of you, eating, drinking, and drinking, which one doesn't cost money, you Brother and sister-in-law can't help your mother, how can you do such a stupid thing, if something happens to you, then think about it, your mother is still alive?"

How could Chen Yan'er not understand what Yu Maimai was talking about?She nodded embarrassingly: "Well, yes, auntie, it's all my fault. It's really not easy for my mother. It's really not easy for us to pull us so much now. I will definitely listen to it carefully in the future." My mother's words."

"Don't worry, my aunt will take you to do business well. Of course, if you want, this will not only fill the household, but also find you a man who is much better than that scumbag!"

Chen Yan'er said happily: "Really, Auntie, I can really learn how to do business with you?"

Yu Maimai nodded: "Well, as long as you are willing and your mother is willing, why not?"

Outside the courtyard, there was a burst of shouting: "Mother, did you hear that? Liu Wenbing was crying loudly, saying that his money was cheated out, and he was collecting debts at the door of my second aunt's house?"

Yu Maimai spread his hands and said with a smile: "This person, you can't do things too much. Look, this is Liu Wenbing's retribution. I didn't expect it to be so fast. Yan'er, remember, the more you This is the time when you can't be soft-hearted, you know?"

"Well, Auntie, I see."

Yu Maimai doesn't have time to join in the fun now. At this time, she hurried home and saw the dried radish drying in the yard. She stirred it up and found that it was almost dried, so she prepared two blankets , I want to take it over and brew some.

Ning Shi was helping, she brought a big basin, put it in the yard, and said, "Mother, do you want to wash these radishes now?"

Yu Maimai nodded: "Well, prepare some seasoning first, boil the seasoning water according to the method I taught you, and let it cool."

Ning followed Yu Maimai's method. Yu Maimai processed the sun-dried radishes, then marinated them with soy sauce and vinegar, and put them in jars.

"Okay, we can eat it in two days. If it tastes good, we can sell it in the market. Then you can take the dried radish and sell it. Come back and check with me how much you sell."

Mrs. Zhang came over with a pair of firewood in her arms, looked at the mother-in-law in front of her and said, "Mother, they will be back later, and we can have dinner."

During this period of time, Mrs. Zhang was in charge of the meals, and Yu Maimai was not in the mood to care about what he ate every day, as long as he didn't go hungry anyway.

"By the way, old man, I asked you to embroider the flower pieces a few days ago. You can bring them here and let me have a look. If they are embroidered well, I will take some time to embroider them. We will sell them at the temple fair. This is also a business, but you can't look down on small businesses like this, without small businesses, there will be no big business."

Mrs. Zhang is a rough person, when will she like this embroidery work? She thought of holding a needle in her hand under the oil lamp, barking, and couldn't help but feel uncomfortable for a while, which made her hold a shovel in her hand. She's still getting used to it, and it doesn't feel good to let her hold a needle.

"Mother, I may not be the material for embroidery. In my opinion, it's better not to do it. It's better to let me do a little rough work in the field than this."

But Yu Maimai didn't want his daughter-in-law to do heavy work like this. , With the attitude of the eldest wife, Yu Maimai put his hands on his waist: "Tell me, what can you do, you can't do anything, what can you do?"

At this time, Qiao Shan Qiao Mai came in, and the two of them carried a sack of radishes and threw them in the yard.

"Oh, I really didn't expect that this year's radish would be called a good one. I don't know how much this radish can sell for. We have worked so hard, and it is going to be cold. If we don't dig it out as soon as possible, our radish Are you going to freeze in the ground?"

Yu Maimai didn't have a regular conversation with their brothers, and continued to criticize the eldest daughter-in-law, but Mrs. Zhang pouted and said, "Mother, can't I not learn? This embroidery is really too difficult. My hands are suitable for holding a shovel." .”

Qiao Shan put down the carrot on his shoulder.She smiled and said: "Oh, you don't know how to embroider, but I can. What's so rare? If you don't know how to embroider, let me do it. This woman's work is not difficult for me at all. Otherwise, we Why are you two a natural pair, you see that you can do men's rough work, and I can do women's needlework."

Yu Maimai felt a little slapped in the face, why this Qiao Shan can embroider, she opened her eyes wide in surprise: "What's the matter? How can you be an old man who can embroider, I haven't seen you doing embroidery before. If you have time now, make one for me to open my eyes.”

Qiao Shan finally got such an opportunity to please Mai Mai, of course he would not let it go, he nodded immediately: "What do you want to embroider, I will embroider it for you!"

Yu Maimai raised his head and thought about it, then let's talk about the tree in front of him!

Qiao Shan didn't speak. He picked up a fire stick at the door of the stove and drew on the ground. He drew a tree in the shape of a tree, pointed to the tree on the ground and said, "Look, is it this tree?"

Yu Maimai was surprised to find that this Qiao Shan had such an ability. He was not painting, it was clearly as if he had copied the tree on the ground.

"You can still draw? Are you so similar?"

Qiao Mai laughed: "You guys, you are underestimating our brothers. Look, this is just a painting. Let him embroider the tree for you later. At that time, will your eyeballs fall out? Out."

Yu Maimai didn't speak, and motioned for Ning to go in and find a piece of cloth, a needle and thread.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Shan took the cloth and needle and thread, sat on the threshold twice and moved a complete tree to the cloth again.

Yu Maimai was surprised: "It's so fast and it embroiders so well? Wouldn't it be a waste of talents to let this kind of artist open up wasteland? From now on, you can embroider at home!"
