Chapter 251(1/2)
After returning with her husband and son, Sang Ye did not dive into the great cause of making tiger-head shoes. She had to go to the city to sell shoes the day after tomorrow. If Zheng Lin couldn't do it and could not find a suitable partner, she had to find someone else to cooperate and prepare for both.
Zheng Lin couldn't help much, so he sent a letter to the big merchant he knew and wrote everything clearly. If the other party has any intention or the other party's friends have any intention, they can meet and discuss carefully at any time.
Two days were said to be long or short. Apart from the pair of tiger-toe shoes made by mulberry leaves, the others made a total of twenty pairs of shoes overnight, which can be said to be extremely good.
In two days, more than 30 people came to Sang Ye to sign a secret contract. They only waited for two days to come back and took them to do it together. A man in his thirties even came over with several pairs of soles he had prepared and asked Sang Ye if he wanted to recruit someone who had soles. He was very strong and could carry two pairs of soles in a day.
Seeing that the man's soles were well-proportioned and thick, and the soles were also varied, which was no worse than those of women. Although he was puzzled in his heart, a man could take the soles, but Mulberry needed the manpower to take the soles, so he happily signed a labor contract with him, but there was no need to sign the secret contract.
After the person left, Sang Ye told Meng about his doubts. After hearing this, Meng sighed: "Dacheng is a poor person. In his early years, his parents went to eat a hundred families of food. In his early years, he went to work as a hard worker in the city and saved some money, so he went back to the village to build a house and get a wife. Unfortunately, his wife is also a poor wife. A few years ago, she got cold and left her children and left her."
When they got married late, their children were young, Zheng Dacheng was both father and mother alone. He had no way to work in the city anymore, so he could only do some casual work and learn to be a female girl from a group of women. When he got time, he made some soles and insoles to sell at the market. He could exchange for orders of vegetables, rice, oil and salt. Over the years, he had learned a skillful hand at the soles of the shoe soles?
After hearing this, Mang Ye sighed: "No wonder!"
Recalling the excitement and trembling appearance of a man pressing his handprint on the labor contract, she suddenly understood why. Signing the contract means a stable source of income. As long as the three of them are doing well, this wage alone will be enough to survive.
Perhaps sympathized with Zheng Cheng's experience in his heart, Meng couldn't help but say, "God became honest and has no bad intentions. If this business is done well, I have to find many people to take care of the soles. Yi Niang sees you give this to him, maybe you can do it better than others."
Sang Ye understood what his mother-in-law meant and felt that it was not an important matter. He smiled and said, "Then according to my mother's words, I will calculate the extra wages for him at that time."
Zheng Dacheng, who had returned to his dilapidated and narrow home, didn't know that there was something better waiting for him. He looked at his youngest son holding a raw sweet potato and gnawing.
Just when he thought that he would have a stable income in the future, his life would soon be better, he became particularly happy again. He ran his son Xiao Doudou off the ground, patted the dust stained on his body and said, "Doudou, Dadou has found work and will soon buy candy for Doudou to eat. Is Doudou happy?"
Xiao Doudou is three years old. Because her nutrition is not up to standard, she looks thin and small, not as big as a two-year-old child. His father does not have any extra money to buy candy for him, but every time he follows his sister to the village to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year, several pieces of sweet candy will appear in his pocket, which is his favorite snack.
At this time, when my father said that there would be candy soon, Xiao Doudou's eyes lit up a little, and saliva flowed down the corners of his mouth unconsciously: "Good, I have candy, Doudou has candy!"
Liu Liu, a little girl who was stepping on a small stool in the kitchen, was working hard to put water into the pot and preparing porridge, heard her brother's cheers, and quickly got off the stool, ran to the main hall, and asked her father with her little head tilted, "Dad, is it done?"
Liu Liu is Zheng Dacheng's eldest daughter, and she is already seven years old this year. Because of her nutritional difficulties, her figure is much shorter than that of children of the same age, her head is yellow and sparse, and her little face is pale and bloodless, but these do not affect the joy from the heart at all.
Zheng Dacheng touched his daughter's head and nodded sadly: "It's done, dad will never let you two go hungry again."
"That's great, it's great!" Liu Liu cheered loudly, unable to help but wander around several times: "Aunt Sang is really
A great man, she gave me candy to pay New Year's greetings before, but now she is working for my father. I want to learn to make tiger-head shoes. In the future, if you take the soles of your father, I will make shoes. We will earn double wages and we will be able to live a good life soon."
Zheng Dacheng was so sad that he nodded with tears in his eyes: "Okay, in a few days my father will ask you if he will ask you if he wants to accept you as an apprentice."
Liu Liu was very happy and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yeah, I'll go with my dad!"
...
On the morning of the first day of March, small vendors who set up stalls on Hepan Street appeared again. The shoe stall that had only appeared once before was set up again. This time, only a couple were guarding the stall. What remains unchanged was that there were still only twenty pairs of small shoes on the stall, which were still colorful and still eye-catching. The pedestrians coming and going couldn't help but look at it again.
"You sit down and stand up and greet you when the customer comes." Fearing that his wife was tired of standing, Zheng Lin took out a seat cushion from the carriage and put it on the stool, and asked her to sit down and wait.
Sang Ye did not refuse the man's kindness, and slowly sat down with his stomach, and said angrily: "I am just pregnant with a child, and I have not become a porcelain doll. I won't be tired after standing for a while."
"You are not tired, I feel sorry for your husband." Zheng Lin replied, and arranged the shoes on the stall neatly in size.
Sang Ye looked at the man's serious side face and felt sweet. He took out two boiled eggs from the basket where he packed his shoes, and said while peeling the shells: "We collected the deposit for a few pairs of shoes that day, and I don't know if those people are here to get the shoes today."
If the cooperation goes well, it is still unknown whether they will come again after the stall today. If those people don’t come, the deposit will not be refunded.
Zheng Lin found it funny: "Those people like tiger-headed shoes, and they have agreed with us for a specific time. Even if they have something to do, they should ask others to pick it up. What are you worried about doing?"
Sang Ye patted his head and felt that he was thinking too much. He couldn't help but joke: "If you come, give your shoes. If you don't come, we will use the deposit to buy candied haws after closing the stall."
"Greedy Cat!" Zheng Lin suddenly felt helpless, his eyes full of pampering.
Just as the couple was chatting, a woman went straight to the shoe stall and said in surprise: "Oh, you guys are here. Yesterday, I came over and walked from the street to the end of the street and didn't meet anyone."
The couple looked closely and found that the woman was the first guest to visit last time. Looking at the joy on the woman's face, Sang Ye guessed the purpose of the woman's arrival, and smiled in his eyes and said, "It turns out that it's a wife. I wonder what the wife is asking us for. Is there something wrong with the tiger-head shoes?"
"No, the shoes are very good. As soon as my nephew put them on, everyone said they looked good." The woman waved her hands repeatedly, and her face showed a bit of lust: "These shoes are so worthy of my face. I'm a lot of relatives in my family. I ask me to buy them if I have children at home, and I'll come to find you."
After confirming the guess in his heart, Sang Ye did not control his smile and pointed to the twenty-one pairs of tiger-head shoes on the stall and said, "The shoes I used to sell out. This is a batch that I have driven out in the past two days. Except for these pairs that have been ordered, the other wives will choose."
The woman nodded, took out three silk threads of varying lengths, and began to pick out three pairs of tiger-head shoes of the right size compared to picking shoes. She looked at the workmanship and saw that there was no problem, she started to pay for money and complained: "Why didn't these shoes come out a few years earlier? Otherwise, my children could wear them."
For this, Sang Ye could only smile apologetically. He couldn't say that the tiger-head shoes were made on a whim before the New Year!
Shoulder sent off the woman who was satisfied with leaving, Sang Ye handed nearly 200 million yuan of money to Zheng Lin, and said with emotion: "You said you are so lucky to marry a beautiful and capable wife like me."
I don’t know which word was stimulated, Zheng Lin narrowed his eyes and took the purse and said meaningfully: “My wife is really capable!”
Sang Ye didn't notice the two words that the man deliberately increased, and raised his hand and patted his chest on his shoulder, but the huge height difference was difficult to climb. He said in an old-fashioned manner: "So, you have to treat me twice as well, after all, I can take you to enjoy the delicious food and drink."
The places that were photographed became more and more popular,
Zheng Lin's eyes were deep. If it weren't for the wrong place, he could have put the little woman who accidentally caught fire and rectified the Dharma on the spot.
Taking a deep breath of air conditioning, Zheng Lin grabbed the woman's hand and rubbed it, revealing a bit of pornography for no reason: "Okay, I just hope Ye'er can stand it."
Unfortunately, someone with severe IQ deterioration after pregnancy could not get rid of the ambiguous hints in her husband's words, so he responded arrogantly.
In a blink of an eye, another half an hour passed. In the meantime, no one who had paid the deposit before came except for a few waves of people looking at shoes in front of the stall. Just when Sang Ye couldn't help asking again, a familiar face finally came.
Sang Ye greeted him enthusiastically, and the woman who came to pick up the shoes took the shoes she handed over, tried the size with her hands, and repeatedly looked at the workmanship. Finally, she nodded with satisfaction: "No, really good!" As she said that, she counted more than 30 cents from her purse to make up for the shoes.
Sang Ye took the silver money and said with a smile: "If the young master likes it, I hope my wife will come to visit you again in the future."
The woman was in a good mood and said happily when she heard this, "Sure, as long as my son likes it, I will buy your shoes in the future, and it will be festive."
Sang Ye became happier and was already thinking about the feasibility of opening a shoe store in Yunlai County to sell tiger-head shoes.
After the woman left, several groups of people came again. Two of them came to make up for shoes. Some were attracted by tiger-head shoes and took the initiative to pay for them. The twenty-one pairs of shoes he brought soon, including the remaining pairs last time, were only seven or eight pairs left.
Mangye shook his purse, listening to the jingling sound inside, the smile on his face seemed to be like Kasumi in the sky: "It's great, when you find a partner, you won't worry about not being able to do this business."
Zheng Lin raised his hand and rubbed her head: "Yes, my wife is the most powerful!"
...
Not long after, only one pair of shoes was sold, and this pair was left to be done. In short, the shoes were sold faster this time than before, and there were more people coming to the stall to watch the fun than last time. Even though there were no one who wanted to pay the deposit, there were twenty or thirty people.
Sang Ye discussed with Zheng Lin and finally received the deposit. After all, the big dealer immediately responded, and it would take half a month at the earliest. It would be no problem to spend two more times during this period. Once there is no way out, she has another way to go.
Just like last time, when the people at the market gradually dispersed, Aunt San and others came back with the children. This time, when they saw the only pair of shoes left on the stall, they seemed very calm, but the joy under the calmness could be seen by anyone with eyes.
As usual, I went to the restaurant for a meal, but this time I ate relatively cheap shredded pork noodles. Everyone didn't want the couple to spend money, but instead rushed to pay the couple's noodles.
When I went back, Sangye bought a lot of scattered things along the street, most of which were missing from the Sang family's banquet on the sixth day of the first lunar month. Although it can be bought in the town, it is convenient to take it back directly with a carriage.
As soon as he arrived at home, Duohua rushed to Mangye like a sparrow and shouted excitedly: "Auntie, the chickens are coming out, there are five. Grandma said that the first chicken that came out will be given to Huahua to raise, and Huahua raised it in the room."
Mang Ye was very happy and had personally participated in the egg picking, so he wanted to know what the hatched chicks looked like: "Where are the chicks? Hurry, take me to see."
"The chicken is in my room, brother is watching, let's go." Duohua took Sanye's hand and walked towards her room, but she took good care of Sanye's body and did not walk quickly.
The newly hatched chicks are very fragile. If you are not careful, you will easily be stepped on by the hen that is still hatching other eggs. Therefore, the newly hatched chicks will be isolated from the hen and placed in a warm place. The chicks cannot be frozen, otherwise they will be easily frozen to death.
Zheng Lin was holding a lot of things in his hand, and watched his wife and niece walk away without looking back, and shook his head helplessly.
"Auntie, the chick is too furry, and the sound is small and crisp and cute." On the way, Duohua thought of all the words that could describe the cuteness of the chick, and tried her best to convey her love for the chick to Mangye.
"Yeah, it's very cute." Sang Ye echoed, unable to bear to tell his niece that the chick was yellow and tender when she was a child. She could be ugly when she was ugly when her fetal hair was gone, and her small and crisp sound would become even when she grew up.
Noisy and harsh, bad tempers may even chase and peck people... So things that are harmless on the surface may not be really harmless.
These are the lessons learned by a friend of his previous life after he opened a farm on a whim. After raising chickens, ducks and geese, he told himself how to raise chickens, ducks and geese.
Seeing that his aunt agreed with her words, Duohua suddenly stopped and asked carefully: "The chicken is so cute. When she grows up, she can lay eggs every day. Huahua puts the eggs away for her aunt to eat. Auntie shouldn't kill it and eat meat, okay?"
Sang Ye was stunned and finally realized that the little girl had spared a big circle and was waiting for her here, and she was amused and laughed. Although the child was so careful about him, he thought to himself that he wanted to raise chickens and lay eggs for him to eat. It really didn't hurt!
Looking at the little guy's serious and serious face, Sang Ye couldn't bear to refuse her begging. He put his hands on her little shoulder and solemnly promised: "Don't worry, the chicken you raised belongs to you. As long as you don't want to, your aunt will never eat it!"
When Duohua heard this, her cautious emotions disappeared in an instant and she became happy: "It's great, thank you aunt."
She wanted to take away the chicken and raise it by herself. Grandma said that the chicken should be kept and grown into a big chicken, and killed it to nourish my aunt's body. My aunt would definitely not be willing to eat such a cute chicken. Look, my aunt is really reluctant to give up.
Soon, they got into the room, one big and one small, but they didn't see the yellow and tender little chicken. They only saw the fat ball lying on the ground holding the bear's paw and the tiger's head with its butt sticking out, and the two fat claws kept picking the bear's paw.
"Tiger head, what are you doing?" Takuha walked up to him and tried to pull his brother up so that he wouldn't roll on the ground to dirty the clothes he just changed today.
"Jiji, Jiji is here, Fat Tuan wants to eat." The three-year-old tiger head was still speaking smoothly. When he saw his sister asking, he anxiously pulled his sister's finger and pointed at the Fat Tuan and complained loudly.
"Fat Group, take away the bear's paw!"
Before Duohua could do anything, Sang Ye was shocked first and rushed over to save the chicken that fell into the bear's paw, for fear that the fat group would swallow the chicken in front of the little guys, causing psychological shadows to the two little families.
The fat group's attention had long been attracted by the shoveler. It was about to get up and rub it against the shoveler to express its intimacy, but was suddenly frightened by the shoveler's loud voice and squatted down again at a loss.
Sang Ye breathed a sigh of relief and squatted down to break the fat group's bear paw. The fat group was feeling aggrieved and refused to take the bear paw away, and even roared at the shoveler.
"Auntie, I'll do it." Duohua realized something and hurriedly squatted beside her aunt. While touching the fat bun's head, she gently coaxed it, while using her little hands to break its claws, for fear that the chicken would be squeezed into a meat pie by the bear's paws one step later.
"roar"
The fat group was very familiar with Duohua, and saw with his own eyes how Duohua treated the chicks. It roared at the mulberry leaves again, and finally moved its thick bear's paw away, revealing the furry chick wrapped inside, sleeping with her eyes closed.
It turned out that the fat group just had a new playmate and was playing with the chicken, and it didn't really hurt it.
Seeing this, Sang Ye finally understood why Fat Tuan was angry. She pulled a handful of round bear heads and said softly in the resistant gaze of Fat Tuan: "Okay, OK, I blame you wrongly. I'll give you half a piece of candy later as compensation, okay?"
The fat group has a good IQ and is very sensitive to the word sugar. Based on the pussy owner's pussy look, it slowly judged that it could eat more candy. It immediately stretched its neck happily and rubbed the pussy owner's face: "Ao"
"Tsk, you guy is really a spirit," Sang Ye ravaged the bear's head, his eyes full of smiles.
