Chapter 53: Catching Turtles (1)

"Hey! Miss Jiu went to be a thief last night and was so sleepy that she was sleepy at a meeting! Haha!"

"You know, Miss Jiu is a lady from a family. She is lying down to think about life, and she couldn't help but shed tears."

"Hahaha! What kind of lady from a family is just a baby, and it is common sense to be sleepy."

...

Under the sarcasm of the shopkeepers of various departments of the cloth factory, Zhu Youning touched his mouth without blushing and snorted and left.

When the shopkeeper Sun saw Zhu Youning's appearance, he became more and more happy.

Mr. Zhu probably misjudged it, or he was plotted, otherwise how could he choose such a useless thing in the clan competition?

However, it was because he had taken a look that the shopkeeper Sun had the opportunity to make a fortune.

In the next month, the shopkeeper Sun negotiated several orders with the Bai family.

"I have the right to reduce the price for you at this moment. If you don't order such a cheap product, you will lose money."

Where is the reason why the Bai family doesn’t get a bargain?

I was busy ordering the silver order.

Manager Sun still kept the goods secretly given to the Bai family in the name of another family, and he took all the money paid for by the Bai family as his own.

Zhu Youning never noticed his big move. After reading the account book once, fortunately he praised the shopkeeper Sun, which made the shopkeeper Sun look a little hot.

In a blink of an eye, the end of the year is approaching, and a few light snowfalls melt when they land on the ground, and the air is still filled with white air when it breathes.

Zhu Youning had already wrapped in a thick cotton coat.

A few days ago, she found that the servants and boys at home were trembling coldly and didn't change their cotton coats, so she realized that they didn't have cotton coats, just like she and her father before.

Only then did she understand deeply that cotton coats and quilts are extremely rare among the lower class of this era. Many poor families have only one quilt for winter, and the whole family has several children, only a pair of cotton pants, and they take turns wearing them when they go out.

She couldn't afford the money, so how could she watch the people around her get frozen? She ordered her to buy a lot of cotton and fabrics, and put cotton coats on the servants of the whole family, and everyone gave them quilts. She didn't want to look so beautiful, but just wanted to keep warm.

This move really moved the whole family.

Nightingale put on her new cotton jacket and cried, "I have never worn my own cotton jacket since I was a child. Thank you, Miss, thank you!"

Zhu Youning was sad when she cried, which made Bai Ling and the others cry.

Zhu Huating couldn't help laughing as he watched his daughter get along with a few maids under the eaves of the corridor.

But when he thought of his wife who was still in the Bai family, Bai's body has been in more than three months, Zhu Huating felt his heart hanged.

Especially as the Chinese New Year was coming, he became more and more restless.

Zhu Youning talked to the maids, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the tall and thin figure standing in the corridor through the window paper.

She put on a red cotton cloak and went out of the door, grabbed her father's hand and said, "Dad, why are you standing here and blowing the cold wind?"

Zhu Huating smiled and said, "No, you have explained everything in your shop clearly? Recently, it is the end of the year, are you going to be busy too?"

"Fortunately, both Sun Dashangguan and Xu Dashangguan are experienced people. They are the clearest at what time to do. I just need to follow their pace to do things."

“Just have experience to follow.”

"Yes. Has Dad been to school recently?"

Zhu Huating laughed and said, "I want to go, but we have to prepare everything in our family. I'm going. Although the children are poor, they all live happily. They are with them together for their fathers, and they feel that their worries are much less. Sometimes, not pursuing things that do not belong to them is also a kind of self-knowledge."

"I'm still a little angry when I listen to my father. Are you worried about my mother?"

Zhu Huating was exposed to his worries, and he was only embarrassed for a moment, and then he generously admitted it.

"I'm afraid that if your grandfather's situation is there, she's pregnant for more than three months now," she seemed to think that she was wrong with her daughter, so she turned around, "In short, if you don't have a person under your nose, I can't let it go."

Zhu Youning smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry, I promise to let the Bai family take the initiative to send my mother back."

This is not the first time my daughter said this, so Zhu Huating just smiled and didn't want to put too much pressure on the child.

After all, their good days are now relying on Zhu Youning.

Zhu Youning knew his father’s thoughts and didn’t say much about this. He just said: “The next time is the summary meeting of the fabric factory at the end of the year. I will go with the shopkeeper Sun later.”

Zhu Huating smiled and nodded, "Go, listen, watch, learn more, sooner or later, you will be even better than those big shopkeepers."

"That's natural." Zhu Youning's big eyes were bent into crescent moons.

This time when he went out, Zhu Youning took Bai Ling and Hua Mei to the Zhujia cloth factory and waited for a while. He saw the shopkeeper Sun wearing a gray-blue cotton cloak walking in with great enthusiasm.

When he saw Zhu Youning, the shopkeeper Sun just bowed, "Miss Jiu came so early?"

Zhu Youning smiled and said, "Yes, I'll have to work harder on the shopkeeper Sun later." Repaying their situation here, every time it is the task of the shopkeeper Sun.

When the shopkeeper Sun saw that Zhu Youning was obedient and clever, he looked like he was asking for something, he felt a little happy. He had earned more than 1,000 taels of money recently, and he was in a good mood. He thought that as long as he had this "stupid" and "ium" stayed in the cloth factory for one day, he would have a way to make money. Therefore, for Zhu Youning, of course, he had to do his best to make this report.

If Zhu Youning's performance is not good, someone will be asked to take it down, who else will take the blame for him?

That’s right, the shopkeeper Sun has already planned it.

The money he earned in the middle will sooner or later be discovered by the cloth factory, after all, it will definitely not match when handing over the account.

But so what?

He is just a shopkeeper, and Zhu Youning has ordered the money. If it is less, there will be something wrong with Zhu Youning, who is in charge.

I heard that Zhu Youning's family had just bought a yard and a maid. Where did she get the money? She didn't get it by pieced together. Then there was a saying.

Manager Sun was in a very good mood. Seeing that the time was almost over, he went to the hall of the discussion in the cloth factory with Zhu Youning.

There was a chair in the hall, with small tables and chairs around it, and tea and snacks were prepared on the table, and the shopkeepers in charge of all responsibilities had already sat down.

Zhu Youning and the shopkeeper Sun were still sitting in their original positions.

Soon, there was a sound of footsteps outside. The door was pushed open by the servant. Zhu Youning's second uncle Zhu Huazhang walked into the door quickly with a cloak with a squirrel's hair collar.

Zhu Youning asked the shopkeeper Sun in confusion: "Why did my second uncle come?"
