Chapter 220: teach a man to fish
"Why don\'t you go home?"
Tian Ruisheng was caught stealing fish by Xiao Tiezhu last time, after apologizing to Liang Xiaonan, he kept making baskets and sewing pockets for Liang Xiaonan, which was not only an apology, but also an extra manual work.
They dare not let others know, and every time they deliver finished products, they come secretly at night.
Before they came, they sent the fifth member of the family to visit the Liang family’s old house. They happened to see Liang Xiaonan going to Xiao Tiezhu’s house, so they quickly packed up their things, pulled a cart and waited at the door.
Liang Xiaonan let them into the yard, into the small house next to the kitchen, Liang Xiaobei asked someone to build a shed between the kitchen and the wall, and put some farm tools and so on.
Liang Xiaonan asked them to unload the things and put them under the shed, and said, "Put the things here, how much are they in total?"
Tian Ruisheng said: "There are 140 straw baskets in total, I will pull them again later; 200 sacks were woven, and 200 cloth bags were sewn."
"Some time ago, they have sent 100 baskets, 200 sacks, and 200 bags." Liang Xiaobei said.
Liang Xiaonan did the math, including straw baskets and sacks, a total of 28 yuan and 8 cents.
After counting the money to them, Liang Xiaonan said, "The straw baskets you made are not bad. Recently, I need smaller straw baskets. Send me as many as you can."
The straw baskets we make now are the ones that can hold more than 5 catties of strawberries. Liang Xiaonan asked him to make baskets that are half as small as they don’t need a lid. She uses them to hold 2-3 catties of strawberries.
This can be regarded as her taking care of Tian Ruisheng\'s family, because Grandma Liang said that when Du Yuehong gave birth to Liang Xiaonan, Tian Ruisheng\'s mother helped to be a midwife and brought a bowl of egg noodle soup.
Liang Xiaonan should repay Tian Ruisheng\'s mother\'s kindness, and now it seems that Tian Ruisheng\'s family is really honest and repentant, and the things they sent were not crudely made.
Tian Ruisheng heard that there is no need to make it so big or cover it, so he said: "Then I can make at least 20 ones a day."
"Okay, we still count on 2 cents."
Tian Ruisheng was so excited, 20 a day, that\'s 40 cents! He can weave 12 yuan a month. The eldest daughter and Chen Xiaoxia can weave 200 sacks a month. The second and third daughters can sew cloth bags. They can earn at least 30 yuan a month.
Liang Xiaonan gave Liang Xiaobei a wink, and Liang Xiaobei went to the house to get a large handful of candies, handed them to Tian Ruisheng and said, "Uncle Ruisheng, these are candies brought by my brother-in-law, how many can you bring back for others?" Brothers and sisters, let\'s eat."
Except for the eldest daughter of his family, Liang Xiaobei is older than Tian Ruisheng\'s other five children, so it is correct to call them younger brothers and sisters.
Tian Ruisheng lowered his head, and did not dare to give in loudly, for fear that others would hear him, so he took the candy, very happy, and said for a long time: "Xiaobei, I\'m sorry, uncle made a mistake."
"Don\'t talk about it, uncle, everyone is in trouble. Both uncle and aunt should go back. My sister has to go to the county to do business tomorrow, so we have to rest."
Tian Lanxiang, the eldest daughter of Tian Ruisheng who came together, kept her head down. It is good to have work, but her father steals things, and now they are punished for working.
Liang Xiaonan called her to stop and asked, "Tian Lanxiang, Nanfeng Town in Kaichun wants to raise silkworms. Are you willing to raise silkworms?"
Tian Lanxiang didn\'t expect Liang Xiaonan to ask her, and whispered, "Yang, you can tell me to do anything."
"It\'s not what I tell you to do. If you want to raise it, you can raise it, and if you don\'t want to raise it, don\'t raise it. Not everyone has the opportunity to do this kind of work. Someone provides silkworm seeds and mulberry leaves. You go to Nanfeng Town to get the mulberry leaves every day. When we go up the mountain, someone will collect it, and it costs 1 yuan a catty. Do you want to do it?"
Tian Lanxiang knew that Liang Xiaonan really wanted to help them. How could he not do such a great good thing!
She immediately raised her head, her eyes sparkling and she said, "Nursing, I want to raise it."
"That\'s okay. Later, someone in Nanfeng Town will tell you how to raise silkworms. You can go and listen to it when the time comes. If you don\'t know how to do it, just ask."
Zhou Yan made an agreement with Liu Qingshan that Nanfeng Town will be settled, Zhou Yan will find a silkworm farmer from the south to give lectures, and take everyone to raise a crop together. The life cycle of silkworms after hatching is only about 30 days, and they can be handed over when they go up the mountain.
Can’t wait too long, the silkworm chrysalis will become a moth, and the silkworm cocoon will be bitten, which will pollute the silk and reduce the quality.
Tian Ruisheng can weave group plaques, she is the eldest, there are already 5 younger siblings who can walk, and the older ones can work.
"Okay, then it\'s settled."
Tian Ruisheng\'s family went back happily. On the way, Tian Ruisheng peeled off a candy and handed it to Chen Xiaoxia: "You can eat one."
Chen Xiaoxia said: "Let\'s leave it to the children, they have never eaten sugar."
"Eat it, it\'s all a girl\'s film, what kind of candy to eat."
When Tian Ruisheng said this, Chen Xiaoxia became a little anxious: "What if this child is a girl again?"
Tian Ruisheng gritted his teeth and said, "Then continue to give birth until a son is born."
Tian Lanxiang didn\'t say a word, she wants to learn from Liang Xiaonan, if she can be like Liang Xiaonan, girls are better than boys!
Liang Xiaonan got up the next day, ate a little breakfast in a hurry, and put more than 100 straw baskets made by Tian Ruisheng into the space.
Cycling to Nanfeng Town, go to your own yard first. Open the door and go in, only to find that the snow in the yard has been cleaned up.
In the backyard, Zhou Yan was picking strawberries in the greenhouse.
"Why are you here so early?"
She was so surprised, she wanted to ask how do you know that I grow strawberries here? Don\'t ask any more questions, he is in Nanfeng Town, it\'s normal for him to come to her yard after strolling.
Zhou Yan stuffed a strawberry into her mouth: "This strawberry is so delicious, how can you be so capable? Fortunately, I came to see, otherwise I didn\'t know you have so many treasures hidden here."
Liang Xiaonan said that you dare to order a gift box if you don’t know that I grow strawberries here?
Zhou Yan said that the gift box would not cost much.
Liang Xiaonan originally wanted to take out the basket, but Zhou Yanzai had no choice but to watch him put the strawberries one by one into the gift box.
"What are your plans for these strawberries? Are you going to send them to the city or someone?" Zhou Yan asked her. Even if he ordered a gift box, he didn\'t think about making decisions for Liang Xiaonan.
"Sell it, it\'s best to spread the word, everyone knows, and don\'t worry about the sales in the future, people will come to you by themselves."
The meaning of Shennong Space is not to tell her to only make money or only serve those rich and powerful people.
"I brought Cheng Gang\'s pickup truck. Later, I will bring strawberries to the county and send a box to Zhai Jianguo and the others. The rest will be placed at Cheng Gang\'s side. He is more convenient than us in the county. If If the sales are good, he will naturally come to buy the goods, which saves us trouble, and for the Chinese New Year, don’t sell things against the wind and snow.”
Liang Xiaonan did as he said, anyway, her space was almost overflowing with strawberries.
"Zhou Yan, let\'s not go to the county in a hurry, let\'s go to grandpa and grandma to give some." Liang Xiaonan was sure that Zhou Yan didn\'t take the strawberries to Yang Hanlin.
"Okay, let\'s go and give them some. In winter, it\'s good to eat some fruit." Zhou Yan said, took a basket and filled it with about three catties, and Liang Xiaonan doubled it, and the two went to Yang Hanlin\'s house with the basket .
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yang Zhili approaching him and said, "Cousin, my mother asked me to go on a blind date, can you go on a blind date for me?"
