Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 355 Envy

"These handkerchiefs cost eight cents each, so I'll take them all." Shopkeeper Zhang said, "If they can all be like what Sister-in-law Su has, I can pay ten cents for each handkerchief."

 Shopkeeper Zhang is an honest person in business. Su Mulan knew it after dealing with him twice, so he nodded in agreement, "Sure, just do what shopkeeper Zhang said, eight cents a piece."

"Okay, I'll get you money." Shopkeeper Zhang collected all the handkerchiefs, gave Su Mulan the money, and said, "If the child wants to earn some pocket money by doing embroidery work, don't embroider the handkerchief next time. Come on, let’s embroider purses. This purse is much simpler than this one and can be sold for eighty or nine cents each. If it’s as complicated as this one, it won’t be a problem to sell it for fifteen cents.”

"After all, there are many farmers in our town. It hurts to spend two pounds of meat to buy a handkerchief. Therefore, this handkerchief is not easy to sell, and the price cannot go up. But the wallet is different. A big girl and a little wife I’m also willing to buy the things that make up the noodles, and let the bamboo leaves make my wallet. It doesn’t take much effort and I can make more money.”

“But these are all small items. They are made during the leisure time at home to earn some money to supplement the family. They cannot be used for a big purpose. If you want to make money, you have to embroider big items.”

“Screens, wedding dresses, backs, etc., it’s best to have them made to order by someone. They’re all willing to spend a lot of money. If you’re lucky, you can get a job and you won’t have to worry about food and clothing for half a year.”

"I see that your bamboo leaf is willing to do this job. This skill is not bad. If not, you can send it to the embroidery academy and learn from the embroidery girls. Maybe you can learn it for a year or two. You From now on, I just have to wait and enjoy the happiness.”

Su Mulan pursed her lips and smiled, "Besides, the child is probably only a novelty for a while, and he might be forgotten in two days."

Bai Zhuye devoted himself to it just as a hobby. If he wanted to find a master to teach him, he would probably spend all day and night.

When the children grow up, they will be busy more often. If they are so tired at this time, Su Mulan feels that it is not appropriate. She can just have some fun first. If she wants to do it as a professional thing, it is better to Let’s talk about it a few years later.

 After all, embroidery work is most taxing on the eyes, and she didn’t want Bai Zhuye’s eyes to be injured early.

When shopkeeper Zhang saw that Su Mulan was just responding with a haha, he thought that Su Mulan was unwilling to spend money to find a master for Bai Zhuye, so he didn't insist anymore and only paid Su Mulan and sent her out of the shop. .

Su Mulan took the money and put it in the money bag, then went to a nearby shop to buy some useful things.

When he got home, Bai Shuiliu had already led the other three carrot heads to prepare lunch.

The spinach and shredded pork noodles made with white water willow are fragrant and taste very good.

 After lunch, Su Mulan gave Bai Zhuye the money from selling the handkerchief.

Eight cents for one handkerchief, fifty-six cents for seven handkerchiefs, the child's hand held a full handful, and it jingled when he put it on the table.

It was not that Bai Zhuye had never seen so much money before, but it was the first time he saw so much money that he had earned. His eyes almost narrowed into slits with a smile.

 “It’s great, the third sister can make money by herself.” Bai Midou was so envious that his eyes almost turned red.

He is the youngest in the family, and the work he can do is the most limited, and the school he attends is also the most expensive.

Bai Mi Dou was dejected, his head hanging down.
