Delicate Flower - Chapter 44

[Chapter 44]

Yu Tang is a very open-minded person.

Otherwise, in the years of the Li family, she would have been driven crazy by the Lin family.

Now that she’s made a decision, she won’t think about it any more.

Just do what they have agreed to do.

Master Qian said that if he wanted to restore the painting, he had to fake it for them. He copied three paintings, and he couldn’t deliver the goods for a while, so he added 30 taels of silver.

Yu Wen made a decisive decision, quietly borrowed thirty taels of silver from shopkeeper Tong Er, and made an appointment to pay it back after returning to Lin’an. He was afraid that shopkeeper Tong Er would reveal the matter and make others suspect their purpose of going to Hangzhou. Yu Wen asked Tong Er repeatedly. The shopkeeper kept it a secret and said, “I’m a scholar after all. It’s too embarrassing to say this. Just help me out.”

In fact, he was afraid that some people would doubt his purpose in coming to Hangzhou.

There are many destitute scholars, and even some officials are not well-off.

Shopkeeper Tong Er read a lot and smiled: “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone about this.” Then he asked Yu Wen to write an IOU and hid it in the pawnshop’s warehouse: “This place is more reliable than the warehouse of the city government in Hangzhou. , don’t worry!”

If Yu Wen didn’t believe that Pei’s pawnshop would not come here to borrow money.

He thanked shopkeeper Tong Er well, and then returned to the inn.

Yu Tang had nothing to do in the inn, and took advantage of these two days to not only make a begonia flower head flower for Chen, but also a plum flower head flower for red Zhang velvet for the proprietress of the inn.

After receiving it, the proprietress was very happy, and she praised her well done hair flower, and said: “I haven’t seen such a delicate thing for many years. Do you want to make some money for yourself? If you If you are interested, I can help you ask how much the head of the pollen shop in the Cai family pays? After you return to Lin’an, you can ask the shopkeeper Tong Da from the Pei’s pawnshop to bring the head flower, and I will help you sell it to the Cai family. In the pollen shop.”

Yu Tang had never thought of making money from this in her life, she couldn’t help but hesitate, and said, “Is the head flower I make really that good? Will the pollen shop accept it? I don’t know how many head flower I can make a month. , I’m a little clueless.” The

proprietress smiled and said, “If you really want to do this business, go back and think about it carefully to see how much you can do in a month and how much it will cost? When you have a clue, come to me again. It’s not too late. I’m always here anyway, and you can find me as long as you come.”

Yu Tang thanked him again and again, and made seven or eight head flowers in a row in the past few days.

It happened that Yu Yuan came back to change clothes, and

she called Yu Yuan to ask him to help her calculate the cost.

This is really not ignorant, and it is a shock.

For these seven or eight head flowers, it cost less than ten cents, at least thirty cents a flower, and made a lot of money.

Yu Yuan thoughtfully and discussed with Yu Tang: “How about we do this business?”

It’s okay to make a few flowers to supplement the family occasionally in spare time, but Yu Tang has never thought about doing this business for a long time.

But she will support whatever Yu Yuan wants to do.

“Then brother, go and ask about the market!” Yu Tang said.

Yu Yuan thought about it for a while, and finally sighed, with a bitter smile: “Forget it! Dad is all about revitalizing our family’s lacquer shop.”

Yu Tang has never visited Hangzhou City like this before, and has always felt that The store at home is fine.

Now that I have visited Hangzhou City, I feel that Lin’an is a little small, and I understand why Yu Yuan is a little restless.

But there are some paths that Yu Yuan has to walk by himself, feel by himself, choose by himself, and fight by himself.

She smiled and asked about Master Qian’s side: “You have been there for the past few days, are you still going well?”

“Going well!” Yu Yuan said, “Master Qian’s craftsmanship still has nothing to say.”

When he took back the work he had done, everyone looked left and right, but they couldn’t see any difference from the original picture.

Yu Wen was amazed and wanted to meet Master Qian, but Master Qian rejected him very directly.

Yu Wen was very disappointed, but he knew that such a thing could not be forced, so he packed his bags and prepared to return to Lin’an.

Yu Tang asked Yu Yuan to accompany her to the alley where gouache headdresses were sold, and bought some materials and tools for making head flowers.

Before preparing to leave for Lin’an, Yu Wen took them to thank Pei Yan.

But Pei Yan and Zhou Zhuangyuan went to Huaian.

According to shopkeeper Tong Er, Zhou Zhuangyuan’s nephew was transferred to the prefect of Huai’an, and Zhou Zhuangyuan pulled Pei Yan over.

Yu Wen was very envious and said, “Read ten thousand volumes of books and travel ten thousand miles. I don’t know when I will be able to do this.”

Yu Tang did not want Yu Wen to travel long distances.

She said bluntly: “That’s because the third master of the Pei family and Zhou Zhuangyuan have acquaintances. You should stay with me and Mu’s mother at home!”

Yu Wen laughed, touched her daughter’s soft blue silk, and smiled: “Don’t worry. , I’m just envious, let me leave you and your mother to go out to play, three or four days is fine, but it won’t work after a long time.”

Yu Tang pursed her lips and smiled.

They thanked the owner and the proprietress of the inn and boarded the boat at a small pier not far from Pei’s pawnshop.

It was smooth sailing, but for two hours, Tiaoxi Wharf was in sight.

The big move of Pei’s pawnshop was still swaying in the wind, and the pier was still so lively.

Yu Tang seemed to have been gone for a year and a half, and even the hustle and bustle became warmer.

She jumped off the board.

Shopkeeper Tong shouted to her from a distance: “slow down, slow down, be careful of falling into the water.”

Yu Tang giggled and stepped forward to salute Shopkeeper Tong.

The shopkeeper Tong Da smiled and greeted Yu Wen: “Adi said you were coming back today, I was thinking about why you haven’t arrived yet, but I didn’t expect you to arrive. Is your trip to Hangzhou okay?

” Okay!” Yu Wen and Shopkeeper Tong shouldered shoulders, walking forward and thanking him, “If it weren’t for your brother, our girl would have suffered.” Tell Shopkeeper Tong about the appointment of the doctor.

Yu Tang said angrily from the side: “Father, just talk to the shopkeeper Tong, you can’t tell the second person.”

Yu Wen and the shopkeeper Tong were stunned, then laughed and said, “Little girl I’m shy. We will definitely not talk about it in the future, let’s not talk about it.”

Master Tong invited Yu Wen to the shop for tea and rest.

Yu Wen thought about the Chen family at home and politely refused.

Yu Tang gave a few flowers to the female relatives of the Tong family.

Mrs. Tong and Mrs. Tong both liked it very much when they saw it. Knowing that Yu Tang made it herself, they took out handkerchiefs or stockings as gifts in return, and told Yu Tang to come visit with Mrs. Chen when she was free.

Yu Tang responded with a smile.

After returning home, he generously started to distribute the things he made

com Ma Xiuniang, Mrs. Ma… The daughter-in-law of Master Wu’s house next door also sent a box.

Everyone praised Yu Tang’s skill, only Chen Shi asked Yu Tang suspiciously: “You really did this? Didn’t you buy it?”

Yu Tang made a flower for Chen Shi on the spot.

Chen Shi was very surprised, hugged Yu Tang and smiled: “You kid, I didn’t expect to have such a craft. When did you learn it? Why don’t I know?”

Yu Tang didn’t tell Chen Shi.

In the evening, when Chen Shi and Yu Wen whispered to each other, they blamed themselves a little, saying, “Although I am sick and don’t have the energy to take care of A Tang everywhere, I am still too negligent towards her, she will make trouble for me. I don’t know.”

Yu Wen thought about the map, and answered vaguely, “Go to sleep! Don’t worry about it. Now that Atang has an idea, she will be able to support Menting in the future. , we might actually be able to enjoy her blessings.
