Chapter 138
But today is different from the past. It is no longer a time for the poor to even buy some food. Now the family is very calm about the matter of money.
What's more, although people can't enter Qixun's space, things can be collected. There are thousands of taels of silver and gold stored in her space.
The quality is absolutely incomparable to the most extreme official silver and gold. When you really need money, you can just use it.
Of course, it's better not to use it if you can.
Sure enough, the family did not mention money.
Lingsu thought, the big deal is that she sells the oldest ginseng and ganoderma lucidum.
Brother Monkey thought, if he can't do it, he will sell the recipes and hunt the beasts a few times.
Lingyu thought, should I embroider a large double-sided literati embroidery? There is no double-sided embroidery embroidery technology in the world. Once it comes out, the value will never be low, but it may take longer.
The old lady Yu Mingxi thought, since Prince Yu and Li Zhixian are full of praise for her calligraphy and painting, can't you sell a few calligraphy and paintings? Can you always raise some money?
Not mentioning the matter of throwing away the money, Gongyu Mingxi said: "Our family has such a big matter of setting up mountains and land, we still have to talk to the old man. Your father probably won't be able to manage the development of mountains and land. We don't have that much energy, and you two uncles have to help with manpower and building materials."
Speaking of this, Princess Mingxi thought for a while, and then said: "In addition, the plough and threshing machine were handed over to the county government, this matter is not just my family's business, the clan is there, you need to know the meeting Let's talk about the clan. Except for the ones that our family makes for the clan, if it is convenient for the clan, we can also make a batch, or sell or rent it, all of which are written income. Let's not get involved in this matter. "
After all, his family has already taken the benefits of the big head.
Holding all the interests in one's own hands, it is inevitable that some people in the clan will have ideas, not to mention this is not the way to survive.
This is not the era of Xiaoxun's life, and the role of clans cannot be underestimated.
Brother Monkey nodded: "I'll go talk to the old man tomorrow, and the grandfather will have to talk with him."
His father is not at home, and in the eyes of outsiders, Brother Monkey is still an ignorant young man. For such a big event, an elder must come forward.
Gongyu Mingxi smiled and said, "That's right."
The family thought about such a large mountain and land, and their hearts were hot.
Brother Monkey is thinking about his Huaguo Mountain. Although his own mountain can't be as big as Huaguo Mountain, there is still a place to grow flowers and fruits. It's better than nothing.
The four mothers and daughters are deeply attached to the land.
In the tradition of flower growers, there is no one who does not yearn for the pastoral and has no obsession with the land.
That's a large area of forest land that belongs to the family.
But when it comes to garden design, this has to be handed over to the old lady and Lingyu.
The mother and daughter both received traditional literati education and aesthetic influence, not to mention aesthetics, and in terms of garden scenery, their knowledge is not comparable to ordinary people.
After all, both of them once lived in the top giants.
If nothing else, the Grand View Garden is a masterpiece of garden design.
As for Qixun, Lingsu, and Brother Monkey,
This time you have to lean back.
The three of them were very self-aware, and handed over the specific design to the old lady and Xiao Wu.
These major events were decided, and it was already lunchtime. In the past few days, Lingsu has been detained by the old man to discuss medical skills. Brother Monkey is responsible for the meals. Lingsu smiled and said, "Second brother has worked hard for the past two days. Leave it to me for lunch."
Brother Monkey doesn't care. If the third sister wants to do it, let her do it. He simply goes to the shed in the backyard and makes the carriage.
After finishing the carriage, I have to make a set of furniture for Uncle Lu. The furniture is done, and the plows and threshing machines have to go on. Even if you can't have one for each family during spring ploughing, at least three or five families must share one, right? Besides, the clan will definitely make a batch.
What you do at home will be handed over to the clan at that time, and you don't have to worry about how to distribute it.
After lunch, the fourth aunt, Mrs. Si, brought knitted sweaters and trousers, which made Qixun happy.
Si Shi smiled and said, "The old man's body was knitted first. You have one of these. This thing is really close to the body and warm. The old man likes it very much. You can quickly try to see if it fits."
Because it is hand-knitted, it doesn't really matter if it is bigger or smaller, because it is elastic. As long as it's not too big or too small.
Si's hand is skillful, and the stitches are well-proportioned. It was originally intended to be worn close to the body, so the flat stitch method is used, and there is no color, so the upper body is soft and compliant.
"Auntie's craftsmanship is really good." Qixun praised sincerely.
If this was in their time, the fourth aunt was also a little handicraft master.
Mr. Si smiled and praised Qixun: "That's also how good your needlework is. You can understand it at a glance. I tried it a few times, and it went well."
The mothers were not too embarrassed to help them, so Gongyu Mingxi said, "The rabbits that Hao'er caught recently are not bad, and the hair should be cut, and when they are cut, let Su'er clean them up. I'll send it all to you, and you'll be able to spin a few pounds of thread, and you'll knit it for yourself."
In fact, those rabbit fur should be able to knit a few bodies, but Mrs. Si will definitely not disregard the elders to put them on first. Jie Shi is afraid that she will have to knit a body for each of her in-laws. Once the in-laws are there, it is not easy to pull off the second uncle and the second aunt. , and finally it was her turn. But I'm afraid Si Shi will have to take care of the child first.
The big family is like this, good things must be filial to the elders first. Taking care of the elders, and reluctant to bear children. But there are too many children, and it is not good for anyone to do it alone.
Si Shi smiled and said: "Then I'm not polite. If there are enough four bodies, I will knit one for my parents and second uncle and two aunts first. If there is the rest, I will knit them all into gloves, and the children will have one pair for each person in winter. Li is very good at reading and writing, and it’s just right to use it.”
Gongyu Mingxi sighed, "That's the only way to do it now. Fortunately, there will be more rabbits next year. Don't say that our family can wear one or two suits each, and there will be extras, whether it's a gift or a gift. Take it out and sell it, it’s always a rare thing.”
Si Shi smiled happily: "That's what I said to my eldest sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law, we will raise more rabbits next year, and we can't let the people in our village also raise more. Then we will collect rabbit fur, and this business can be done very well. It is much better than weaving cloth. I have thought about it, if it can be done, in addition to the share of the silk tax, after weaving, I will exclusively spin the rabbit wool, and then weave it into sweaters and pants, not scarves and gloves. Go to the county town to sell, as long as the family conditions allow, who doesn't want to buy?"
Not to mention keeping warm, the key is that it is fluffy and looks beautiful.
After talking for a while, the family was busy, Si Shi got up to leave, Lingsu packed two snacks and asked her to take them back.
They are all a family, and they are often sent to and from the food, and the Si family is not polite.
Because of the sweater, Qixun thinks of the clothes in the space. To be honest, since she was a child, she had enough clothes, shoes and hats to fill several cloakrooms. These are also her memories of growing up, so they are all kept in the space. It's on.
Qixun planned to take a part out at night, and also let her mother and sisters take a look at her previous image.
