Mu Yangling took out the money bag and put it on the table, the whole family stared wide-eyed, even Shu Wanniang couldn't help touching the money.

Mu Shi frowned slightly, and asked, "How can a deer be sold for so much money? Ah Ling, although we are short of money, we can't cheat people."

Mu Yangling said: "Father, do you still not trust my character? When did I cheat someone? This time it was the little general who helped find a big customer."

"The little general is looking for it, so we can't take advantage of him." Mu Shi said, Shu Wanniang and Ma Liushi also nodded.

They are all honest people, the little general owes their family a kindness, this deer should be given to the little general's friends.

"That customer is the eldest son of the prefect of Wu. He took it back to honor his father. The price was also negotiated with the help of Mr. Fan and the little general."

Mu Shi was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "It is indeed a big customer. Since it is the little general who leads the way, then this money will be collected." Wu Zhifu's money is not too much.

Only then did Mu Yangling happily put away the money bag, and took out ten taels of silver from it, "Auntie, let's go shopping in the county tomorrow, buy more grain, and buy a few hens and a few hundred for my mother. Come back with an egg, see what is still missing at home, and buy it all at once.”

Shu Wanniang opened her mouth, Mu Shi held her hand, looked at her with a smile, and swallowed what Shu Wanniang said.

Taking advantage of Mu Shi not paying attention at night, Shu Wanniang pulled her daughter over and asked, "Ah Ling, how much did you sell for the handkerchief you took today?"

"Six hundred words."

Shu Wanniang frowned, "So few?"

"Mom, double-sided embroidery takes too much energy. You still have to breastfeed now, so don't embroider and embroider something else. I think it will definitely make money."

"Then did you ask how much the double-sided embroidered screen is?"

Mu Yangling was discouraged, "I didn't ask, the shopkeeper is not sincere, and I would definitely not tell if I asked, but I think it should be quite expensive."

Shu Wanniang thought for a while, and finally said: "Ah Ling, you can give mother some money. Mother will go to the county town to buy some needles, thread and satin. I want to embroider a big screen." She gently touched her daughter's head, tenderly He smiled and said: "I have always relied on you and your father. Now, I also want to do something for you. Even if I can't support you, at least I can share some of the weight for you."

"But why did mother keep it from dad?" Mu Yangling asked puzzled.

The mother obviously didn't want her father to know about it, so Mu Yangling felt that there was something hidden in her. Mother's mind was used to keeping her in her heart, and Mu Yangling was always careful with her, for fear of accidentally hurting her, so Mu Yangling didn't dare to make a decision on this matter.

Shu Wanniang was silent for a moment, then sighed, "I'm afraid your father won't agree."

This double-sided embroidery method was handed down by the ancestors of the Shu family. It is not clear which generation of ancestors brought it from her natal family and passed it on to the daughters of the Shu family. In short, every girl must learn it after she reaches the age of eight. Some people have learned it, and some people have not.

Shu Wanniang is submissive and able to sit still, she is the best at double-sided embroidery among her sisters, even her smartest sister is not as good as her.

But the Shu family also has rules, this thing can be made for personal use, or given away, but it cannot be bought or sold, and the family has the strictest requirements on this.

Shu Wanniang used to never think of making money with double-sided embroidery no matter how difficult the life was, but seeing her husband so tired, and her daughter, who was always a bit fat as a baby, also had a sharp face, plus the resentment because of being blocked from going south, Shu Wanniang made this embroidery in one go. Art took it out.

She wants to help her husband and daughter. She doesn't know how to farm and is weak. She can't do other things, but she can do embroidery.

Shu Wanniang sat on the edge of the kang with a little restlessness, Mu Yangling made the bed, climbed to Mu Shi's side, and whispered in his ear: "Father, hurry up and coax mother."

Mu Shi glared at her, feeling sour, astringent and sweet in his heart. Taking advantage of the time when his daughter went out to fetch hot water, he stepped forward to hold his wife's hand, and said in a low voice, "Do whatever you want, but, Don't work too hard, lest you hurt your eyes."

Shu Wanniang's eyes were slightly wet, she held her husband's hand tightly, and leaned her head on his shoulder.

Mu Shi patted her on the back.

In fact, he didn't want his wife to embroider double-sided embroidery to make money. Firstly, he didn't want to have these entanglements with the Shu family, and secondly, he didn't want his wife to have any ties with her.

When Mu Yangling bought fine rice and came back to grind it into powder, he boiled and beat two eggs every day and steamed it. Before the Chinese New Year, the twins' faces would be plump again.

Mu Yangling was delighted to see them, and he would kiss them every day when he came back, and it was the same today, when Mu Yangling kissed them on the face, Hu Dian's voice sounded outside.

Mu Yangling put down the child and came out, while Shu Wanniang was hiding in the kitchen at a loss.

"Uncle Hu, what's the matter?"

Hu Dian glanced at the kitchen. During this period of time, he also knew that Mu Shi and Mu Yangling were the masters of the Mu family. When Mu Shi was not at home, he could just find Mu Yangling. When you go out, you look like a lady of every family.

The thought flashed by, and Hu Dian laughed and said: "It's from the front. The farm tools and cattle allocated by the imperial court have arrived. Let each household go to get them. Your father is not at home, and your family will go alone." Bar."

A smile appeared on Mu Yangling's face, "Is it here? Are there many?"

Hu Dian touched his head and said, "I haven't gone yet, and I don't know if there are many, why don't we go and have a look together?"

"Uncle Hu, let's go first, I'll pack up and leave."

Hu Dian agreed.

Mu Yangling turned around and ran to look for Mrs. Ma Liu. She didn't know how to look at the farm tools, so she had to find her aunt to follow.

When Mu Yangling and Ma Liushi arrived at the camp, the front of the camp was already full of people, old and young, and only one child, Mu Yangling, came to join in the fun.

The person in front shouted loudly: "Farm implements have been distributed by the superiors, and each household has a certain amount of everything. However, due to the limited number of farming cattle, they are divided according to small flags. One small flag is five cattle, and everyone shares. You Remember, this cow belongs to the camp, don’t use it to death after you bring it back, it will be gone if it is going to die, do you hear me?”

The people below were already making a lot of noise, and someone shouted: "A small flag only has five cows, when will it be our turn?"

"That's right, so many families, one family and so many places..."

The people above yelled, "You don't like it? You don't want it if you don't like it. Did you have cows in your house before? Be honest with me, and there will be no more quarrels."

Everyone immediately quieted down.

Mu Yangling was immediately discouraged, and said to Ma Liu: "There are only five cows per banner, I don't think our family will use it."

But Ma Liu said: "Your father is Xiaoqi, it should be your father's first use."

Mu Yangling shook his head, "Let's forget it, I'm strong, so let's give the bull to the people below, and set an example for Qi Haoran."
