In the next few days, Shen Ruolan lived a very leisurely life, reading books, learning characters, doing yoga, and practicing Sanda at home every day. Except for cooking, the rest of the housework was done by Shouya, or she could cook by herself Eat, I'm afraid that even the cooking work will have to be taken away by her.
The front and back gardens of the family have been turned over by Brother Daqing and his wife, and even the mulch has been pulled back for several carts, which is enough to fertilize the front and rear gardens. Branches, collecting firewood, working in full swing, and even planning to raise the courtyard wall of her house, if it wasn't for Shen Ruolan's plan to build a new house this year and repair the brick courtyard, the two couples might have already started The wall was repaired.
However, even if the wall was not repaired, they were not idle all day. Part of the support in the town had been completed, so Daqing drove the bullock cart to the town to pull back the completed part first. Under Shen Ruolan's command, Settle down...
The couple worked so hard, Shen Ruolan did not treat them badly, and settled their wages every night as agreed, and when Daqing and his wife received the heavy bunch of copper coins, they were all happy from ear to ear.
This money, even though Lan Ya took care of them and let them earn it, was also earned by their own strength. They were grateful but also received it with peace of mind. Because of this money, the family could eat dry food and no longer Hungry.
Moreover, Lan Ya cooks some delicious food for Zhuzi every now and then, such as pork, dumplings, and blood sausage, which are delivered in different ways, so that the child has meat on his face these days, and their family is even more grateful to Shen Ruolan Already...
In a flash, it was the day when Shen Ruolan went to the city again. This time, she didn't have to walk several miles to Taohua Village to take a car. Two days ago, when Brother Daqing went to town to pull the brackets, he ordered a car for her in the car dealership. In the early morning, the carriage came to pick her up.
When they arrived at the county seat, it was almost noon, and Shen Ruolan went directly to her father's rental house. Her father was away and went out to deliver the goods. Zhaodi, Lingdi and Daidi were at home, and the sisters were making crystals in the west wing. As for Dong, seeing Shen Ruolan coming, the girls were overjoyed, chatting around her, asking questions.
The most important thing is to ask her if she got the thirty taels of silver back
Shen Ruolan briefly explained the matter to them, but of course, she didn't mention that the money was taken into the space by her.
Hearing that the silver was taken back, the girls were so happy that they almost jumped up and down. It's great. I don't have to feel guilty and blame myself for spending all the money on them. Think about it The wolf-like family finally received their retribution, and thinking about their misery after losing their money, the young lady was so happy that she wished she could look up to the sky and laugh!
"Sister Lanya, how are they doing now? Did the old man pester you again? And that pair of beasts, did they just stop?" Zhaodi asked worriedly.
"It's Sister Lanya. They have been selling our money all these years to make a comeback. Now that you have made their dreams come true all of a sudden, I'm afraid they will not be reconciled!" When Zhaodi said this, Lingdi also get worried.
Dai Di suggested, "Why don't you move here too, we can still have a good time together, it's not worth staying in the village in case of their revenge..."
Shen Ruolan smiled and said, "Don't worry, they don't have the energy to trouble me now, and they don't know how to solve their own troubles."
At the beginning, after Shen Dachui was hit with thirty sticks by Lei Butou, he even fell ill in pain and anxiety. The old woman and Shen Dachui's wife also fell ill because they lost such a large amount of money. The whole family lay sick on the kang for several days, and just in time, the low-grade brothel in the town that once bought a few skinny girls came to pick up people.
Shen Dachui had originally received five taels of silver as a set money, and they came to pick them up after the first month of the month. Later they saw the money and sold the sisters to Shen Ruolan's family. It can be described as "a girl looking for two husbands' . '
Now it's the first month of the month, and the brothel came to pick up people as agreed, but their family sold their daughter and lost the deposit. Naturally, the brothel couldn't agree, and sent a group of rogues to their house all day long to work. Shen Dachui, who was just sick, was injured again, and even smashed their broken house, and let go of his cruel words. Within seven days, he either handed over a few daughters, or returned ten taels of silver (deposit plus breach of contract) compensation), otherwise they will sell their little boy to the capital as a eunuch.
Shen Dachui's family was forced to go to heaven and have nowhere to go, so how could they bother to trouble her
Hearing that they had ended up like this, Zhao Di and the others were very happy, otherwise they would not be able to leave this way, they really wanted to go back to watch the excitement, and let out their anger!
It was already noon, and Shen Ruolan made a simple pearl soup for everyone, and took them to Heji Buzhuang after eating.
Today is the day she made an appointment with Shopkeeper He to pick up the quilts and clothes. The four quilts were too heavy for her to carry, so she took them along and let them carry them by themselves.
When Zhaodi and the others heard that Shen Ruolan had made new quilts for them, they were naturally very moved. However, Sister Lan Ya had done too much for them, and it was hard for them to express their inner gratitude with how many words of thanks. I can only hide that gratitude in my heart and work hard to repay her!
When we arrived at He Ji Bu Zhuang, shopkeeper He greeted us warmly. The quilts are all ready. The pure cotton quilts and pillows are soft to the touch, very comfortable and fragrant. The sisters hugged their quilts, so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths shut.
And when Shen Ruolan saw her clothes, she couldn't close her mouth anymore, she could almost stuff an egg into it!
This brightly colored body is even more colorful than a hen. If it is worn out, it will definitely attract everyone's attention!
However, she doesn't have the courage to wear out such ridiculous clothes, forget it, let's keep the bottom of the suitcase!
However, Zhaodi and the others seemed to appreciate her clothes, all of them showed amazed eyes.
Zhao Di also exclaimed and said: "It's so beautiful, Sister Lanya, if you wear this flowery dress, you are guaranteed to become the number one beauty in our village. Even Shen Ruomei won't make you look better!"
There is a black line on Shen Ruolan's head, and she has a new understanding of Zhao Di's vision and taste, she thinks it's better to forget it, if it is the price of being a village flower and wearing this dress, then she is still ugly!
Shopkeeper He also said with a smile: "I told the girl not to give any hope. It's still suitable to wear at home. I just made some clothes here. I planned to sell them in a tailor shop. You might as well take a look." If there is anything you like, I will sell it to you at a lower price, guaranteed to be 10 to 20% cheaper than a tailor's shop."
Shen Ruolan happened to be planning to buy two new clothes, so she said, "Then let's take a look!"
Shopkeeper He took out two sets from under the counter and said, "These two sets fit the girl's body, do you want to try them?"
These two sets are made of pure cotton with zipper and horse face skirts, one of which is lotus color with a slightly lighter skirt of the same color underneath, and the other is light blue with ivory skirt.
Shen Ruolan prefers light colors, so she chose the light blue set and bought it.
After shopping, she changed into new clothes directly, and asked Zhaodi and the others to take back her old clothes and Shouya's bedding and pillow first. She was going to Duan's house, so she wouldn't go back with them.
She replied that she should design clothes for Mrs. Duan, and made an appointment to go to Duan's house today to give her a design. She was afraid that she would be looked down upon by the Duan family's servants if she wore that jacket again, so she changed it on purpose so that they would not notice it. Clothes are respectful.
"Oh, sister Shen, I have been waiting for the stars and the moon for so many days, and you are here!"
As soon as she saw Shen Ruolan, Madam Duan was very affectionate. She still wore the hairstyle Shen Ruolan designed for her last time, she still had that makeup on her face, and her clothes were much more elegant. She looked much prettier than before. .
As soon as Shen Ruolan came in, she took Shen Ruolan's hand affectionately, and called her sister directly, making Shen Ruolan a little confused.
Why doesn't she remember when she got so close to Mrs. Duan? Given Mrs. Duan's status in the county seat, would she take the initiative to be commensurate with a little girl like her? What a bargain!
However, after the two chatted for a while, Shen Ruolan finally understood why Mrs. Duan was so enthusiastic about her!
It turned out that after the two of them separated that day, when Madam Duan returned to the mansion, it happened that Second Master Duan, her husband, Mr. Duan, also came back, and the two happened to meet up on a walk.
Mr. Duan was startled when he saw her, as if he didn't know her. They have been married for many years, and she has always been wearing heavy makeup and gorgeous dress, with a high bun on her hair and brocade clothes on her body. She is so elegant and refined, he It's the first time I've seen it!
Men are all visual animals. He was also very happy to see his wife, who had been ugly for many years, suddenly become beautiful. He was also curious about why she had such a sudden change, so he followed her to her yard. As a result, She stayed with her that night.
Mrs. Duan has been in drought for so long, and now it is raining after a long drought, so she is naturally very grateful to Shen Ruolan. In addition, her husband has come to live almost every day these days, which makes her regard Shen Ruolan as a lifesaver, so when they meet, they don't care about their status Because of the difference, I called my sister directly.
"I have sent people to ask your father several times. If you don't come again, I will send people to your village to pick you up." Mrs. Duan took her hand and sat down on the couch.
Shen Ruolan said: "You are in such a hurry to find me, what's the matter?"
Mrs. Duan said: "Didn't you promise to design clothes for me? It's been so many days, where are your clothes?"
Shen Ruolan smiled, took out the stack of patterns she designed from her arms, and said, "Here, do you like it?"
"Okay, let me take a look." Madam Duan couldn't wait to take the stack of drawings away, and looked down carefully. From the first page, she was overjoyed and said: "Sister, you drew all these Is it? It’s so rare, tsk tsk, I didn’t even know cats could draw like that!”
Even the maids who were waiting around were also attracted, and smiled while watching: "Madam, these paintings are too cute, if you wear such clothes, the young master will definitely like it!"
Those cute cartoon patterns instantly melted the hearts of all the women in the room, giving them the right way to open their cute hearts!
Shen Ruolan said modestly: "I'm not good at fine brushwork, so I just scribbled these few sketches, which makes you laugh."
"Oh, sister, you are too modest, such a flowery appearance is only beautiful and special." Mrs. Duan said excitedly.
He also said, "Go and send these drawings to our home embroidery workshop. According to these drawings, I will make one set of each kind of clothes for me, no, it is two sets, and I will also make one set of each kind for the sister of Shen's family."
Shen Ruolan hurriedly said: "I don't need it, you can do it yourself."
"Then how?"
Mrs. Duan smiled and said: "You help my sister design these, and my sister will be grateful to you. It's just a few clothes, and it's not a big deal. My sister, don't refuse."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Shen Ruolan to speak, he asked the girl to come over and help her measure the size.
Seeing that she insisted on this, Shen Ruolan had no choice but to obey.
After measuring the size, Mrs. Duan touched her cheek, happily and shyly, and said, "Sister, you helped my sister design this hairstyle and makeup, although the makeup looks good, but you always comb your hair like this." There are always times when (he) gets tired of looking at (his) makeup, so can you help my sister design it to see if there are other outfits and other suitable buns."
Shen Ruolan said: "Okay, then I'll help you put on a delicate makeup and give you a moon-worship bun!"
Jiaoli makeup is the makeup that the emperor painted on Huanhuan in "The Legend of Zhen Huan". When I adjusted the powder, it was a little heavier, and it made Mrs. Duan's face look powdery when it was applied on the face. With the white pear blossom makeup between the eyebrows, the powder is powdery and white, it is really beautiful.
Moreover, when she was putting on lipstick today, she asked for honey. Use the tip of a spoon to dip some honey on Mrs. Duan's mouth, then gently blend it with your fingertips, then take the lipstick, dip your fingertips in the honey again, and then dip the lipstick to blend it, and apply it to her lips. Apply it on the lips, after applying it, the lips are shiny and shiny, with a hint of sweetness.
When Mrs. Duan saw her beautiful lips in the mirror, she immediately thought of her husband's feeling when he kissed her at night, and she felt more beautiful and happier in her heart.
The hair is combed in a moon worship bun, that is, the hair is divided into two parts, two braids are braided on the left and right, and two arched buns are combed on the top of the head. It looks bright and lively. If it is dressed with cartoon clothes, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. !
There is no need to wear a hairpin ring in the moon worship bun, just a few pearls on the hair bun at intervals. I was so happy that I didn't know what to do.
"Sister, your hands are really clever!"
She looked at herself in the mirror, imagining how her husband would see her when he came back at night, her heart seemed to be soaked in honey water, and when she was happy, she became extraordinarily generous.
"Sister, I'll give this to you, it's my sister's gratitude to you!"
She casually picked up a white jade bracelet from the dressing table, and was about to put it on Shen Ruolan's wrist.
Shen Ruolan hastily said: "You can't do this, it's too expensive, I just comb your hair and put on makeup for you, how can I accept such expensive things from you?"
Mrs. Duan held her hand, not allowing her to dodge, and put the bracelet on her wrist, "Sister, you can accept it with peace of mind. To you, it's just makeup and hair, but with sister In other words, you saved my sister!"
If it wasn't for her help, she would still be ignored by her husband, and ridiculed by those aunts, concubines, and housemates. Even the wild women outside would dare to step on her. But now, she has become more beautiful, her husband has pampered her again, and those scumbags in the backyard have settled down a lot, and they no longer dare to ridicule her in front of her...
These few days can be said to be the happiest time she has lived in the years since she was married. This is all thanks to her help. No matter how much she rewards her, it is worth it!
"Besides, the patterns you designed for my sister have fallen in love with my sister. My sister plans to get her own embroidery spinning and embroider some clothes, skirts, handkerchiefs, embroidered shoes and aprons. I will definitely make a fortune, and I will only give you a bracelet, and my sister thinks it is a bit thin."
Shen Ruolan was taken aback. It turned out that she wanted to mass-produce and sell the patterns she drew. In this way, it is indeed a bit frivolous to just give her a bracelet. The commercial value that those patterns can create cannot be measured by a jade bracelet. What came down was not enough even with the clothes she made for herself!
Madam Duan looked at Shen Ruolan in a daze, with a thoughtful expression on her face, she smiled and said, "Sister, can you still draw such a pattern? If you can, let's make a deal."
Shen Ruolan's heart moved: "How to trade?"
Mrs. Duan said: "I think your father's rented place is too simple. I have a two-entry house on Sishui Street. There are four rooms in the front. There are shops in the front and residences in the back. Although it is not big, the house is still quite new. , The furniture and so on are all ready-made, if you like it, I will transfer the house to you, and you can help me design twelve such patterns every month, until one year is over, how about it?"
Shen Ruolan could have as many designs as she wanted, but she never thought that she could change a house in the county by simply drawing a few pictures.
So, he said decisively: "Okay, deal!"
