Erya automatically ignored the words scolding Yuanshi later and took the two pieces of new material handed over by Xu Jiaojiao, shedding tears of excitement.

"Aunt, thank you. From now on, Erya must listen to my advice. When she grows up and gets married, she must also honor her well..."

Xu Jiaojiao joked, "Okay, a new dress will make you cry. From now on, our life will be better and we will have new clothes to wear all year round. Don't you want to cry to death?"

Since the nieces and nephews have one, each of the nephews also bought one, Erlang, Sanlang, Silang, Wulang, and Liulang.

Mrs. Xu Zhang was speechless when she saw it. This old girl's hands and feet were too big.

I endured it again and again, but for the sake of making hundreds of taels of silver, I didn't stop it.

After buying the items for her nephews, Xu Jiaojiao added, "Since the whole family is about to buy everything, let's just buy one for each of the second brother, second sister-in-law, fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law, and make loquat ointment. Second brother and fourth brother are here.

Among them, the delivery effort also deserves credit."

When Xu Zhang heard this, she firmly objected. Are you kidding me?

I bought it for the grandchildren of the old Xu family. This is the next generation of the old Xu family and is the seed of the old Xu family. It makes sense.

Why should I give it to my wife?

What kind of thing is the second daughter-in-law? If I buy materials for her, will she be willing to make clothes? I will send them to Lao Yuan’s house later!

The fourth daughter-in-law is even more of a lazy woman. She peeled fruits honestly for the first few days, but in the next few days when she was asked to light the fire, she would do whatever she could to avoid being lazy. If she wasn't careful, she would go to the cellar to steal something to eat. This guy

Also bought her materials to make new clothes? Mrs. Xu Zhang didn’t want to pay her any wages.

"You paid them wages at night and asked them to buy them with their own money. You didn't give them any cloth for free!"

Xu Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Mom, a piece of fabric doesn't cost much. It's all neat and tidy. Everyone has a share. Don't say I'm partial. There are both young and old. I just don't buy it for them. Is that all I want to do?"

.”

Xu Zhang's face turned cold, "No, I won't buy it if I don't want to. I have no place to spend the money. Leave it to my mother to keep for you. You are not allowed to buy materials for those two ghosts who betrayed the time!"

"Okay, okay, I won't buy it if Mom says I won't."

It's just for fun, but if it makes Mr. Xu Zhang unhappy, then what's the point of buying ingredients?

Xu Jiaojiao would not make Mrs. Xu Zhang unhappy because of an outsider.

As a result, because they bought too much material, the cloth shop had an event, and if they reached three taels of silver, they could give away four pieces of ordinary material...

It just so happened that I didn’t buy it for Xu Laoer and the others, but I unexpectedly gave them their share.

Xu Zhang didn't expect that this was God's will.

After spending a long time in the cloth shop, I picked out twelve pieces of material, which cost more than three taels of silver. Ordinary materials are cheap, dozens of yuan a piece, but Xu Jiaojiao and Xu Zhang's materials are more expensive, several hundred yuan a piece.

, especially the satin one, which cost one or two silvers a piece. Xu Zhang was so distressed that she gasped.

I wanted to quit on the spot, but Xu Jiaojiao persuaded me to stop.

The whole family has new clothes, which is a big gain.

Then, Xu Jiaojiao went to the grocery store and bought a lot of things she wanted to buy.

Erlang, Erya, Xu Zhang, and Xu Jiaojiao's own baskets were all full.

At the grocery store, Xu Jiaojiao asked the boss, "Are there any large wine vats or jars for sale?"

The boss said yes.

I took Xu Jiaojiao to see it. There were some pottery jars fired in earthen kilns in the back room.

There are no color patterns, they are all khaki or black pottery.

Xu Jiaojiao pointed at these and said, "Yes, yes, but these are too few. Are there more?"

The owner of the grocery store recognized Xu Jiaojiao and had come here many times to buy candies. He was an old acquaintance. For Xu Jiaojiao, the owner went to the county town several times to buy candies.

There are more than a dozen jars of various sizes in this room. If an ordinary person says there are too few, the boss will definitely think he is joking and is deliberately making fun of him.

But this is what Xu Jiaojiao said!

Recent big customer!

"There aren't many for now. If you want it, little girl, I can customize it for you. How many do you want? What are they mainly used for?"

This is what Xu Zhang wants to ask. Buying food, clothes, etc. are normal needs and are acceptable.

There are so many wine jars, what is the use of the wine jars?

Xu Jiaojiao gestured, "For wine storage, I will order ten wine jars of this size. For this size, I will order fifty first. For this small one, I will order two hundred..."

The large wine vat indicated can hold about seventy or eighty kilograms.

The medium one can hold thirty to fifty kilograms.

The small ones are packed in one pound.

The grocery store owner quickly took a note and wrote it down.

Mrs. Xu Zhang was dumbfounded at the side, why do you need so many wine vats!

How much does that cost?

She pulled Xu Jiaojiao in a low voice and asked, "Jiaojiao, why did you buy so many wine jars? Do you want to buy wine? If you want to buy wine, we have a wine jar at home, so there is no need to buy it."

Also, it’s not a good idea to drink in a girl’s house.

There are many men who like to drink, but after all, only a few women drink.

Drinking can cause trouble. Xu Youde used to be addicted to alcohol when he was young. Xu Zhang was always worried about him going to work after drinking, for fear that something would happen to him, and she was always on tenterhooks.

Xu Jiaojiao replied, "No, mother, aren't there a lot of secondary fruits left? I can't make loquat paste, so I want to use it to make loquat wine!"

"So that's what happened. Jiaojiao, can you make wine?" After hearing this, Mrs. Xu Zhang's eyes lit up. Can loquat fruit be used for other purposes?

She thought she had received too much, but it turned out that Xu Jiaojiao had other plans.

"I have never brewed before, but I remember the methods in the book. We can slowly study and brew slowly. Brewing is not much more complicated than making loquat paste. After brewing, it needs to be sealed in a jar for more than half a year before you can drink it.

, and I’m not in a hurry.”

"Okay! Mom supports you."

With the successful sale of loquat ointment, Mrs. Xu Zhang has inexplicable confidence in Xu Jiaojiao.

Whatever the old girl wants to do, she supports her unconditionally.

If the brewing is successful, it will be another income.

Another addition to the old girl's dowry.

Finally, the grocery store owner roughly calculated the price. The many wine jars Xu Jiaojiao wanted together cost more than ten taels of silver. He placed a deposit first, and it would take about half a month for the goods to arrive. After the goods arrived, he would pay for them.

Complete the remaining balance.

First, I gave the only dozen jars in the store to Xu Jiaojiao and the others to take back.

The two men were all placed on the bullock cart one by one.

Returned fully loaded.

In the afternoon, Xu Lao Er, Xu Lao Si and others came back.

I brought back the last sum of silver for loquat paste, eight taels.

Xu Zhang took Xu Jiaojiao with her, and the two of them counted money inside. After working for so many days, in addition to all expenses, the money for collecting the fruits, the labor costs for peeling the fruits, including the money spent on buying wine in the town today
