Chapter 119: Not Pampered (Part 1)
Ye quickly said, "It's okay, you don't need to teach your parents. If you have this skill and start a business, your parents will be happy for you."
Seeing their daughter doing well, Jiang Xiangchuan and Ye felt happier than eating anything.
Jiang Zhiluo said, "Teach my parents. I will do business as well, and I don't necessarily have to focus on the Guokui business."
"If people get tired of eating guokui and don't buy much, we'll have to change to something else."
"But don't worry, Mom and Dad. I have a lot of ideas in my head."
Seeing Jiang Zhiluo's confident look, Ye also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't work too hard."
Ye was also afraid that Jiang Zhiluo would be tired.
Jiang Zhiluo shook her head and said, "Dad and Mom, don't worry. My mother-in-law and husband treat me very well."
"I won't get tired."
Ye said happily, "I also think your mother-in-law is a good person. He Jin may look aloof, but people like her are often cold on the outside but warm on the inside. If you live a good life, we will be relieved."
"By the way, Mom and Dad, how are the straw sandals selling?"
Ye smiled as she sorted the straw sandals on her stall and explained, "We sold five pairs of shoes this morning. Each pair cost five cents, which makes twenty-five cents."
"I brought a lot of straw sandals this time. The market has just started. If I can sell them all, I can make a lot of money."
Jiang Xiangchuan added: "The key is that straw sandals only require a little craftsmanship and don't require any investment. You can make a profit from every pair you sell."
"That's great. Your brothers and sisters can't stay idle at home and want to do more."
Xuanxuan said: "Sister, I can weave too."
Ye smiled and said, "Of course not. Our Xuanxuan has knitted several pairs."
Ye and Jiang Xiangchuan never spoiled their children.
I don’t think Xuanxuan shouldn’t work at the age of five.
Of course, the only person they spoiled was Jiang Zhiluo.
"Our Xuanxuan is awesome."
Jiang Zhiluo hugged Xuanxuan, grabbed his little hands and looked at them, and found that his hands were covered with several small wounds.
“Is this worn out?”
Xuanxuan looked at her own hand and said, "Sister, it doesn't hurt. It will be healed soon."
Actually it hurt, but he didn't want to make his sister worry.
Jiang Zhiluo felt a pang of sadness in her heart, and looking at his bright and trusting eyes, she felt a little distressed.
But she couldn't stop Xuanxuan from working.
Because my younger brothers and sisters have been helping with housework since they were very young.
Many families in the village are the same.
Therefore, most children in the village are tough because few of them are spoiled.
Jiang Zhiluo quietly used her wood-based abilities to heal Xuanxuan silently.
In this way, Xuanxuan's bruised fingers healed quickly.
Just then, someone saw the straw sandals on their stall and squatted down curiously to take them in his hands to look at them.
"Are these straw sandals?"
Ye quickly smiled and said, "They are straw sandals. They are soft and comfortable to wear, and the soles are thick. Wearing them will not affect working in the fields or in the mountains."
"These straw sandals are different from the ones we've seen before. The soles are indeed thick and not rough at all. They're also quite beautiful."
Ye quickly said, "Indeed, our weaving method is different from others."
The man took a closer look, seemed very satisfied, and asked, "How much is a pair?"
"Five cents a pair."
The man habitually bargained with Ye, but judging by her expression, she didn't think five cents for a pair of shoes was expensive.
Ye still insisted on five cents a pair. "Well, sister, if you buy a few more pairs, I'll give you a piece of malt sugar as a gift."
The man thought about it, nodded and said, "Then buy two pairs, but I'm not sure if these are big enough for you."
Ye quickly said, "Our shoes are available in all sizes, including large, medium, and small. You can try them on and see how they compare."
It was Zhiluo who taught them how to weave straw sandals according to the three sizes.
Moreover, there are hinges on the straw sandals so that the size can be adjusted.
If it's a little bigger and adjusted to be tighter, it won't be loose when you wear it.
The man tried them on and bought two pairs directly.
People came one after another to buy straw sandals.
Jiang Zhiluo did not delay her parents from doing business. After saying a few words, she prepared to return to the stall.
While walking over there, Jiang Zhiluo also heard some conversations.
Some people go to the market together, chatting as they walk around.
"Have you heard that the Xinglin Pavilion in town was burned down by a huge fire?"
"Is this true? We haven't been to town for a long time."
"That was fake. It almost burned down all the houses around it. Fortunately, it was discovered in the afternoon when the fire broke out, and the people around were able to save us."
"Why would it burn in broad daylight?"
"I heard that someone wanted to kill the young master of Xinglin Pavilion."
"What? Assassination? In town? Isn't that scary?"
"I just heard about it, no one knows what happened specifically."
…
When Jiang Zhiluo heard this, her expression froze.
It seems that what Cui Hejin said was right, someone committed assassination and arson.
However, Jiang Zhiluo felt that perhaps someone was reckless about the assassination, and Zhuang Xingan's men deliberately set fire to attract the attention of people around them so that they could safely avoid the assassination in the chaos.
Jiang Zhiluo felt puzzled. Wasn't he just the young master of a medical family? How could someone assassinate him in broad daylight without any care?
It's a bit unreasonable, but it also shows that there is a problem.
If anyone knew that she cured Zhuang Xing'an, they wouldn't attack her, right?
Is it because of this that Cui Hejin looked strange when he came back yesterday?
However, Jiang Zhiluo was naturally not worried about the assassination.
She naturally has ways to protect herself.
And if there is danger, her dreams will give her advance warning.
When Jiang Zhiluo arrived at the stall, there were also three people waiting to buy things.
"I'll buy eight of each of the chive boxes and the pot cakes."
"Brother Liu, your daughter and son-in-law are back, why are you buying so much food at once?"
"That's right, they came to see us just in time for the market."
"Your daughter and son-in-law are both filial and come back to see you once a month."
"It's mainly because our Yangliu Village is convenient. They can come to the market and have a meal at home."
The man called Brother Liu had a smile on his face and judging by his clothes, his family should be well off.
Otherwise, I wouldn't buy so much at once.
Jiang Zhiluo came back and said, "Mom, let me do it."
"Why are you back so soon? Talk to your parents more."
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, "It's okay. There are more people coming in now, and they also want to sell straw sandals."
At this time, a young man came over and scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly. "Um, Auntie, can I ask what kind of vegetable this leek is? Why does it taste so good?"
"If there are any seeds for sale, I wonder if I can buy some."
"My wife is in confinement after giving birth and has no appetite. I bought some chive dumplings and she liked to eat them."
Mrs. Cui looked at the young man and thought of her own son. She smiled and said, "You really care about your wife."
The young man smiled and said, "Of course my wife will feel bad."
At this time, someone nearby sneered and said, "He's a live-in son-in-law, how dare he not love his wife!"
