Li Xiuniang thought that Shen Nian had been "uninformed" these past years and might not know the customs of the Double Ninth Festival, so she told her on the spot.
Climbing high, admiring chrysanthemums, eating Double Ninth Festival cakes…
Shen Nian found it very interesting.
"I think the second brother's idea is very good."
"Mom is good at craftsmanship, we can make some Double Ninth Festival cakes to sell…"
"Mother said just now that it will be very hot during the Double Ninth Festival. The heat is very good. Third uncle can make a batch of bamboo fans in advance so that he doesn't have to worry about not being able to sell them."
"As for selling flower baskets that third brother just mentioned, that's also feasible. I heard from Brother Man that Guoguo's mother has planted a lot of flowers, and we can buy them."
If that doesn't work, give her a flower seed and she can grow a big garden in the shortest time.
Seeing that his sister agreed with his plan, Shen Kun raised his chin proudly.
"Father, mother, eldest brother, and sister all agree, what do you think?"
Shen Qian thought for a moment and nodded: "I think it's feasible!"
Man Geer has always supported Sister A unconditionally, and it was the same this time. He raised his hand and said, "I listen to Sister."
Li Xiuniang looked at Shen Er, who looked into the bright eyes of the children and nodded.
It's rare that children have ideas, so let them try it.
Shen Kun: "Thank you, Dad."
Shen Qian also had a faint smile on his face.
Shen Nian was also a little happy when he saw his brothers happy.
"Dad, our plan is inseparable from Third Uncle. Should we call Third Uncle over too?"
Shen Er: "Brother Kun, go call your third uncle."
After a while, Shen San was called over.
After saying hello to each other, they began to discuss the details of the stalls set up by the Nine Emperors Society.
Shen San knew his mission.
He estimated the time and expressed his concerns, "I can make bamboo fans, but the work is detailed. I'm afraid I won't have time to make the flower baskets and the small baskets for Double Ninth Cake cakes that you want."
Shen Nian immediately thought of a countermeasure, "We can collect it in the village."
Two for a penny, more is collected by others.
Shen Er also meant the same thing, "Just do as Sister Nian said."
Shen Kun responded readily.
After determining their respective division of labor, the family took a rest.
-
The next day, news of the Shen family's collection of flower baskets spread throughout the village.
Some people took it as a joke, while others immediately took it seriously, with different reactions.
Seeing that several families followed Shen Kun's instructions and joined in the work of weaving flower baskets, some people started to make sarcastic remarks.
"It's so funny. Every household knows how to make flower baskets. How much money can be sold for it is worth these people. I think they are crazy because of poverty."
"Yes, I saw them going to the mountain to cut down a lot of bamboo. Can they use up all the bamboo they cut down?"
"Take care of them, I don't think you can earn a few coppers from this job, but the battle is huge, it's really exaggerated."
"The second wife of the Shen family has become more and more high-profile, and she is not afraid of being criticized."
"Who says it's not?"
…
There are many people in the village who are not optimistic about him, even the old Mr. Gao cursed him.
"A good day is just a day, work all day long!"
"The money at home is not brought by the strong wind. I know how to spend money. What's the use of the flower basket? You actually spend money to collect it. I think your brains are stuffed with donkey shit..."
Shen Nian suddenly stood up, startling Mr. Gao, and immediately shut his mouth.
Shen Nian, however, did not take the old lady for granted. He picked up the bowl on the table and took a sip of the honey water.
So sweet~!
Old Mrs. Gao was interrupted by her and forgot all the curse words. She snorted angrily and left.
Shen Nian was confused, "Has the old lady finished cursing?"
How many people are in the second room: "…"
After the small episode, everyone continued to work. When Zhuxi Village was in full swing preparing to make money during the Double Ninth Festival, Li Yuzhu from Liu Guogong's Mansion in Zhongdu looked at the shallow scars on his face with misty eyes.
The maid was so distressed that she almost shed tears. She quickly comforted her, "Miss, please stop crying. Crying too much is bad for your eyes."
The third young master has already said that he will find a way to get Yu Ji Powder for you, and the injury on your face will definitely be healed by then. "
My young lady's life is so miserable, woo woo woo.
Li Yuzhu had tears in her eyes and looked very lovable.
Her voice was choked with sobs, "Can it really be okay?"
A pleasant voice came from the door, "Yes."
When Li Yuzhu saw the visitor, she quickly lowered her head, wiped the tears from her face, and acted as if nothing had happened.
"Why is third brother here?"
Liu Sheng felt a pain in his heart, "Let me see you."
If he hadn't come, he wouldn't have known Yuzhu was so sad.
Li Yuzhu smiled desperately, caressing the scars on his face, and said with a bitter smile, "I'm sorry for making third brother worried."
She choked so hard that tears rolled down her eyes, "I don't want to blame others, but, but... I feel bad. My family background was not good, and now my face is ruined. I..."
As if thinking of some horrific scene, Li Yuzhu's slender body trembled slightly, and her face turned pale for a moment.
Liu Sheng saw that Li Yuzhu was in a bad mood, so he stepped forward and grabbed her shoulders and looked directly at her.
"None of the things you worry about will happen."
"Yuzhu, look at me, third brother won't let anything happen to you, believe me, okay?"
The young man's eyes were firm and his heroic face showed a domineering look that could not be rejected.
Li Yuzhu's heartbeat was a little fast.
It was the first time she discovered that her cousin looked so good-looking, which was a pity...
Thinking of that incident, Li Yuzhu felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her whole body, and her budding love was completely sealed by cement.
"I believe it." She said with soft eyes.
"If I can't even trust my third brother, then no one can trust me."
Liu Sheng rubbed the girl's hair and said in a gentle voice, "You can always trust me."
"Don't think too much, go to bed early, I will get you Yuji San as soon as possible."
He said this, but he was not very sure about it.
Yu Ji Powder is something from the palace, and if you don't have enough of it, you will die.
The Holy One must have it in his hands, but how dare he care about the emperor's things.
Furthermore, there was a bottle in Prince Rong's Mansion, but with the cruel Prince Xiao around, he didn't even dare to think about it.
Liu Sheng was a little worried, but it didn't show on his face.
Li Yuzhu's heart moved slightly and her eyes looked guilty, "I'm sorry for bothering you, Third Brother."
"No trouble, you are my sister, you're welcome." Liu Sheng said.
Li Yuzhu thought that the Double Ninth Festival was coming soon. In the past, she would invite her friends to climb high every year.
She wanted to urge Liu Sheng to get Yuji Powder for her before the Double Ninth Festival, but she didn't know how to speak, which made her look hesitant.
Seeing this, Liu Sheng took the initiative and asked, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Third brother, the Double Ninth Festival is coming soon, am I not allowed to go out this year?" Li Yuzhu's eyes turned red again, he was really a person made of water.
Liu Sheng was in a dilemma, but he couldn't bear to let the girl down, so he said, "I will get the jade muscle powder for you before the Double Ninth Festival."
Li Yuzhu burst into tears and smiled, "Third brother is so good."
Not far away, on a dense tree.
Liufeng and Qianhan are sitting up there listening to the corner of the courtyard.
The two of them kept their voices low.
"Tsk, it's true that the man is in love and the concubine is interested. I was almost moved to tears when I saw it." Liufeng tutted.
