Chapter 157

Shen Qingci clenched his little fingers and counted the time. After the cotton-padded clothes were ready, if he left early, he should be able to get there. In the coldest weather, all these things and food would be available. I gave it to my father. She gave some last year, but it was silver, and asked them to find villagers nearby to collect it. As long as they have money, they don't have to worry about food, but this year is not very good. It's too cold this year. , and no one dares to buy it.

And the cotton is stocked by those merchants. Because of the cold, no one wants the cotton even if the price is high.

So now is the best time. There is grain and cotton. If you don't harvest it at this time, I'm afraid there will be no chance.

"Mommy, remember, ask the housekeeper to collect more charcoal, wood wool, silver wire, and ordinary ones. By the way, let's also collect firewood, as much as you can." If the charcoal is not enough, then Use firewood.

In fact, in the last life, this year, there was not much firewood. Because the mountains were covered by heavy snow, those who wanted to go up the mountain to find firewood were undoubtedly not fighting for their lives. How long would a bundle of firewood last?

And food, food is the most important thing. Big sister should have made cotton coats and boots for daddy. She will go over in a while and ask her to make a few more sets for daddy. Maybe what she does now is still not enough.

When she went out, she went to find Shen Qingrong, and Mammy He also went to the housekeeper to discuss the matter.

Now I have to make cotton-padded clothes, and I have to buy charcoal and food.

The housekeeper is a little dizzy, what happened to these three girls, this is the beginning of spring, he can understand buying food, and it can be cheaper to buy now. Because they are almost heavy grains, but it is a bit strange to buy charcoal for cotton-padded clothes.

What kind of padded clothes are you doing, and what kind of charcoal are you buying?

"Three girls say this, you can just do it," He Ma naturally didn't know the reason, but it was ordered by the master, and they just did it. Everyone knew that Shen Wenhao was the heir of Duke Wei's mansion. But in fact, the only person who can speak in this mansion is Shen Qingci, such an eight-year-old girl, why, because Yipinxiang is her, the money she earns, she can spend whatever she wants, and gradually what she says, almost They are all equal to the grandfather of the country.

"Okay," the butler could only agree, anyway, no matter how hard he could figure it out, they must do what the master ordered, and no matter what, they must help the master to do it properly.

After He Momo left, the housekeeper had already instructed people to do it separately. At this time, in fact, whether it is to make cotton coats or collect charcoal, it is much cheaper than in winter, and now those things are afraid that no one wants them. .

As for the food, let's collect it, but the three girls said that compared with the usual harvest, it is a few cents more expensive, and a pound is a few cents more expensive, so how much more silver taels they have to pay.

The housekeeper thought, it may also be that the three girls want to receive the first one.

And they have always come in a low-key manner when they receive food from the Duke of Wei's government. Besides, they receive a little every day, so it won't cause anyone's suspicion.

Moreover, they themselves received food to send to their grandfather, even if they were known, who would dare to say more, the court could not afford to raise them, they were all raised by the people in their house, and there was a face to say ?

The housekeeper has already started to do these things, and this collection has not stopped, and it has been collected for more than half a year. On the other hand, because they want to buy a lot of charcoal and firewood, the housekeeper will take charge of the Shen family. The yard where I used to live was opened, and the charcoal and firewood that I had collected were put in it, as well as the cotton-padded clothes that were made. Things are piled up.

Shen Qingci sat on her sister's bed and stared at Shen Qingrong as she was making clothes.

"Did my sister make Daddy's clothes?"

Shen Qingci asked Shen Qingrong,

"Well, it's done."

Shen Qingrong smiled mildly, and made five sets of boots for your father, and he also had five pairs of boots.

"Sister, would you like to do a few more pieces?" Shen Qingci climbed over from the collapse, and then hugged Shen Qingrong's arm to please.

"Well, what's wrong?" Shen Qingrong pinched her little sister's face, "Five sets are enough."

"Sister did A Ning's as well, okay?"

Shen Qingci raised his face, "A Ning can't do it."

"Who told you not to learn?" Shen Qingrong also has nothing to do with this sister, such a big girl naturally wants to learn embroidery, like when she was nine years old, she could already make clothes for her four-year-old sister. .

But what's the matter, her sister just doesn't like needlework, and she doesn't study life or death.

"Prick your fingers," Shen Qingci put her small hands behind her back. It wasn't that she didn't want to do it. Her hands were used to make incense and to make money, but if she wanted to take a needle, it would take a few stitches. If she pricks her fingers, she has no way to make perfume, so she will not hurt her hands, so she can only give up embroidery. Anyway, she has a sister who is very good at making clothes. Let my sister do it.

Shen Qingrong laughed out loud.

"Okay," she poked her sister's little face, "A Ning can make incense, and I can leave the clothes to my sister."

"Well," Shen Qingci was really not polite at all, "sister will also help A Ning to do it for brother, and also do it for brother Xu, Princess Jun, aunt Jie, Uncle Jun, sister fairy, and sister fairy. children."

When Shen Qingrong heard what her sister said, she had a headache.

After all, there is a lot to do. When will she do it?

"Okay, elder sister," Shen Qingci hugged Shen Qingrong's arm again, and rubbed his head against her chest, sigh, elder sister's place is really big, and it's so soft, it's much more comfortable than before.

Shen Qingrong couldn't do anything about Mei Miao's childish actions. Whoever made her the elder sister could say that she spoiled the younger sister.

"Okay," Shen Qingrong pinched her little sister's face again, and then helped her to trim her hair. It seems that she won't be able to go out for a long time, and her little Ning really gave her to her. There was a big problem. Does she really think that making clothes is like digging cabbage, and one hoe is one.

It will take half a month to finish one piece. The father’s one has not been finished yet, and at least three more sets have to be made. A Ning’s, eldest brother’s, her own and A Ning’s have to do three sets each. The set is complete, A Ning is still small and growing fast, I am afraid that I will need to add a few more pieces.

In Prince Jun's mansion, Prince Jun, Princess Jun and Prince Jun each made two sets.

She also has to do each of the three county masters. The big county master has three children, the second county master has two, and the third county master also has two. She also wants to give the Cheng family sisters who are close to her, and the Li family girl. , Wang family girl, also do one set each, after all, it will take dozens of sets.
