Chapter 525 I want to make money(1/2)
Han Mingxiu knew that his elder sister could not afford such expensive clothes, so she said, "I think these two clothes look pretty good. Let's do it like this. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, my aunt will not give you New Year's money this year, so I will buy you all the clothes."
Han Mingcui hurriedly said: "No need Xiu'er. We stay in the countryside on weekdays. If we don't need to wear such good clothes, it's all in vain."
"How can you say it's useless? It's enjoyable to wear it. Look at Niu Niu and Xiaoying wearing new clothes, are they like changing people? When the child is old, he should dress up well."
After saying that, he turned his head and said to the salesperson: "Comrade, we have all wanted these three clothes. How much does it cost?"
Before the salesperson could count, Niu Niu took the lead and said, "Auntie, it's really no need. We really can't wear such good clothes in the countryside. Even if we are forced to wear them, we have to be worried. We are afraid of scratching and rubbing for a while. Wearing clothes becomes a burden. It's better to let us wear these old clothes with freedom. Besides, if you use these clothes for us as New Year's gifts, what will my parents buy for Sister Yaoyao and others?"
After hearing what she said, Han Mingxiu was stunned. She didn't expect that this little girl could think of so many things. It seems that this child is really old and can consider problems with adult thinking.
When Han Mingcui saw Niu Niu express her thoughts, she simply said it. "Yes, Xiu'er, aren't you making things difficult for me? Stop buying it. Our mothers dressed well. Although they can't compare with the people in the capital, they are really good in comparison with the people in our village."
When Han Mingxiu heard that both of them and their daughter said this, she couldn't force her to buy them, so she had to give up the idea of buying them clothes. She accompanied them to wander around the mall for a while, and kept walking until after five o'clock before sending them home.
Afterwards, Han Mingxiu went to Mr. Gao's house and brought Yaoyao, Dashuang and Xiaoshuang back.
She had already agreed with Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao that during the period when her elder sister was in the capital, she would go back to Siheyuan to live every night.
However, during the day, Dashuang and Xiaoshuang would still be sent to their house to accompany Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao.
When Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao heard that Han Mingxiu's sister was coming, they thoughtfully asked to invite their family to live at home, and also invited Han Mingcui and his family to have a meal.
This kindness scared Han Mingxiu, and she didn't dare to let Mr. Gao and his sister meet.
I remember when she was still in her hometown, she used Grandpa Gao as a guise to deceive her sister.
Although this lie has been solved by her other lies, she still dared not let the elder sister meet Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao. She was afraid that she would miss it even if she didn't do it any time and expose her lies, which would make her fallen into a cold place.
In front of the elder sister, she was so lying - this uncle Gao is not the unman.
I remember that she knew two tall men in Nong'an County, one was the poor old man who was sent down, and the other was the retired senior teacher of the county high school, and the other one with several promising children.
Two people with the surname Gao came out all of a sudden, and she even called them the uncle. Moreover, one of them had known her for several years, but she had never mentioned it when she went home.
If someone with a little more flexible mind or has many ideas, he will definitely be able to pick out the flaws from her words. But Han Mingcui and Gao Guangbin are both honest and kind, and are easy to believe others. Since Han Mingxiu said this, although the panic was not evenly at all, they still believed it.
Han Mingxiu finally tricked them over, but how could she let them meet Mr. Gao? What if they talk about some past events and then tell her lies through, how could she fulfill this lie that she has been telling so many years?
So, it’s better not to meet.
Han Mingxiu had thought about it. She would never let her elder sister meet Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao in her life.
Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao were worried that Han Mingxiu took her three children back and forth alone, and specially asked the driver of the Gao family to take them back to the Siheyuan home.
After Han Mingxiu took the children back to the courtyard, she was warmly welcomed by her elder sister's family.
This is the first time that everyone has seen big and small guys. When they see the pair of nerdy little guys, everyone can't help but fall in love with them. The special Han Mingcui looked at the two little nephews who looked exactly the same and dressed exactly the same, and didn't know how to care about them.
She wanted to give her children some gifts to make them happy, but she was too short of money and couldn't come up with anything decent, so she had to hold the fat hands of the two children and say over and over again:
"Good kid, it's so rare! Unfortunately, my aunt has nothing to play with for you. I'm so sorry for you..."
Yaoyao didn't need to be told by adults, so she ran to play with Jiabao.
Children like to play with people of the same age. Yaoyao is almost the same as Jiabao, so they soon got together.
Niu Niu, Xiaoying and Xiaoli are very sensible. When they see their younger brothers and sisters playing together, they will watch from the side so that the two little guys will not be able to hit each other or fight...
Seeing a few children playing well, no need for adults to watch, Han Mingxiu took Dashuang and Xiaoshuang to sit in the east room with her elder sister, her elder brother-in-law and her elder sister’s elder sister’s family and chatting and chatting.
Niu Niu and Xiaoying, Xiaoli, Xiaomeizi took Yaoyao and Jiabao to play in the west room.
Adults and children are in their own group, each doing each other without interfering with each other.
When Niu Niu was watching several younger brothers and sisters playing in the west room, she saw Yaoyao dressing so beautifully and whispered to Xiaoying and Xiaoli: "Sister Yaoyao dresses so beautifully. I wish we could wear such beautiful clothes."
Xiaoying said: "Sister Niu Niu, you like good-looking clothes. Why don't you want to buy new clothes for us today?"
Niu Niu said, "You don't understand this. Actually, it's not that I don't want it, but that I can't. My aunt has a family and a child to raise. These days when our family is in the capital, we basically have to eat my aunt's residence. Maybe it costs me how much. How can I ask my aunt to pay for us to buy clothes? Even relatives can't be so unconscious, right?"
After hearing what his sister said, Xiaoying lowered her head and said with a sad expression: "Yes, actually, I like that dress too. It's a pity... Our family has no money and can't afford it..."
Her tone was a little sad, which made the ladies both feel down and fall into the loss of longing for beautiful clothes but not seeking them.
After a while, Niu Niu suddenly cheered up and said, "Hey, Ying'er, why don't we make money to buy it ourselves? I think we have to do business outside now. We also want to do something and make money by ourselves. Then we spend our own money to buy it and wear it righteously!"
Xiaoying is timid, so how dare she go out to make money by herself? When she heard Sister Niu Niu’s suggestion, she quickly shook her head like a rattle.
"No, no, we are still young. If we go out to do business, it will be broken if someone cheats you. Besides, let's stay here for half a month. How much cent can we earn in half a month? Let's just stay calm and stop messing around."
Niu Niu became unhappy when she heard what she said. She frowned and said, "Look at you, it's not good. You'll give up before you can do anything. If you don't try it, how can you know it won't work? Anyway, we're already here, why don't you try it? Maybe we can really make money from our clothes!"
Xiaoli has been listening to her two sisters talking. When she heard her elder sister say this, she also agreed with her elder sister's point of view.
"Second sister, I think the eldest sister is right. Otherwise, let's try it! Maybe we can really make money. If we make money, it will be helpful to our family!"
"But, what if you encounter a bad person? I think it's better not to mess around," Xiaoying said quietly.
Niu Niu said: "You are always afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back. Forget it, if you don't participate in the downfall, I will find a way myself."
Seeing this, Xiaoli hurriedly said, "Sister, I'll be with you. Forget it, my second sister doesn't want to make money, anyway, I want to make money."
Although Xiaoli is only nine years old, she is more courageous than Xiaoying. Moreover, she also respects the eldest sister Niu Niu from the bottom of her heart, thinking that Niu Niu is much better than the second sister and is better than the second sister in everything, so she is close to Niu Niu and Xiaoyinger.
Because Gao Guangbin and Han Mingcui got married, the girls in the family were rearranged. Niu Niu was the eldest, Xiao Ying'er became the second, Xiao Li was the third, and Xiao Meizi was the fourth...
Seeing that Xiaoli supported her, Niu Niu became more determined to make money, so she said, "I will discuss with my aunt tomorrow morning to see if my aunt can help us think of ways to make money. If my aunt can help us find a way, it would be even better. But..."
Her expression became serious, "You can't tell mom about this. If mom knows, you must stop us. Let's secretly tell my aunt with her back, and it's not too late to tell her when the matter is almost done..."
After saying that, he instructed Xiaoying again: "You don't participate in the slander, but you can't destroy it. This is our secret, and you must help us keep it."
Xiaoying nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I won't tell anyone..."
A few little girls discussed it like this and decided to make money...
The next morning, Han Mingxiu and his elder sister got up and cooked breakfast. The breakfast was very simple, and they cooked a pot of sticky rice porridge. There were grates on the porridge pot, and the bean bread and rice cakes brought by his elder sister and the others were poured on the grates, and a small bowl of eggs were also laid.
Such breakfast is nothing to the city people, but even if it is a good meal for my elder sister’s family, there are many children at home, and the conditions are getting worse and worse. We can’t eat rice porridge every day or eggs every day.
Everyone sat together and had breakfast lively. As soon as they finished, the Gao family sent a driver to pick up the child.
Han Mingxiu was worried about handing the child over to the driver. She had to send the child back in person and hand it over to Gao Laoniang's servant Aunt Zhou.
So she took her three babies into the car and prepared to take the child away.
Seeing that the opportunity was rare, Niu Niu hurriedly said, "Auntie, I have nothing to do anyway. I will go with you to see my younger brothers and sisters?"
Han Mingxiu was amused when she heard this and said, "Okay, I just want to buy some vegetables after I'm sending them later. Can you help me carry the vegetables when you go with me?"
Niu Niu smiled and said, "The relationship is good. My aunt has always helped us with this and that. This time I can do something for my aunt!"
The mother and the mother talked and laughed and took the three babies into the car. The car started and went straight to Mr. Gao's house...
After driving for a while, Niu Niu told Han Mingxiu what she thought.
"Auntie, can you help me think of a solution? I'm thinking about making some money while I'm working in the capital these days."
When Han Mingxiu heard that she wanted to make money, she was shocked and said, "Why, is your family short of money?"
Niu Niu shook her head quickly and said, "No, aunt, don't get me wrong. My family doesn't lack money, it's my own meaning. I want to do something to make some money, which is to exercise myself."
It turns out that I want to exercise myself!
Han Mingxiu was shocked and thought that her elder sister's family had an economic crisis, so she didn't tell her without telling her.
When Han Mingxiu learned that it was Niu Niu’s personal idea, he agreed and said, “Okay, if you have such an advanced consciousness, my aunt will definitely support you, but have you ever thought about what you want to do?”
Niu Niu shook her head: "I haven't thought about this yet, I want to hear my aunt's idea."
Han Mingxiu said: "Let's do this, I have a friend who is in the seafood business. I can wholesale some seafood from him and let you sell it. However, it's quite hard to sell things outside this season. It can freeze people to death when it's cold or snowy. Are you sure you can endure this hardship? If you can endure this hardship, I will contact you now and you will get the goods tomorrow."
After hearing this, Niu Niu said happily: "I can endure hardships. Auntie, I am the best person. Don't worry, help me contact me. I will not embarrass you..."
Hearing her promise, Han Mingxiu smiled knowingly and said, "Okay, after buying vegetables later, I will go to my friend's house to contact you. By the way, do your parents know about you want to make money? Do they support you?"
Niu Niu said: "They don't know yet. You also know the temperament of my father and my mother. Both of them have conservative thoughts. If they know, they will definitely oppose it. So I also want to ask my aunt to help me and persuade them..."
Han Mingxiu touched her head and said, "Don't worry, it's covered by me. It's rare that you have such advanced ideas and such advanced consciousness. My aunt will definitely support you."
Seeing that my aunt supported her so much, Niu Niu was so happy that she cracked her mouth and revealed a row of neat and white teeth: "Thank you, aunt!"
When the car arrived at Gao's house, Gao's aunt had been wandering and waiting at the door.
When she went to bed last night, she didn't hug her two eldest grandsons. She didn't sleep well all night. Early in the morning, she sent the driver over to pick him up with two dark circles. She asked the two eldest grandsons to come back and kept wandering at the door, waiting.
"Grandma, we're back!"
Before Dashuang and Xiaoshuang got off the bus, they saw grandma standing at the door and wandering around from a distance, and they all slapped the car window and shouted.
Grandma Gao had already seen the car coming, and saw two big grandsons' round and fat faces from outside the car window. Her heart, which had been empty all night, was filled with happiness. She not only saw the two children shouting at her, laughing at her, and making her beautiful.
"Hey, good boy, it's good to come back. Did you sleep well last night? Do you miss grandma..."
As soon as the car stopped, Gao Lao Niang went up, opened the car door, and couldn't wait to carry her two eldest grandchildren out.
Dashuang and Xiaoshuang each pulled one of her hands, walking beside her, like two little penguins, and told him about what happened last night.
"I miss my grandma, but I didn't cry. I'm brave. I'm a man..."
"I won't go to the courtyard with my mother today. I want to sleep with my grandma and grandpa..."
When Gao Lao heard the affectionate confession of his two grandsons, he almost cried.
