Happiness System

Chapter 23: The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Scholar-President (22)

"Sister, brother-in-law, are you coming out? Where should we go now?" Yinbao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the couple coming out. They had been inside for too long!

He saw several people who also seemed to be handing in embroidery works, but they came out after a short while!

Of course he didn't dare to say that! Complaints were a big no-no!

"Let's go to the jewelry shop first. If we have some extra money, we can go to the cloth shop to make clothes for you. If we have more extra money, we can go and have something delicious. Do you think this is feasible?" Qin Yunxi glanced at him.

Are you impatient now?

"Okay! It must be done! My sister is the one who makes the decision at home!"

Ah? This? Would he still have money left after going to the jewelry store? He was deeply skeptical!

Yinbao was afraid that she would be cheated and would not even have money to make new clothes, so he immediately led her to a silver shop that he thought was reliable.

I looked around the first floor and saw a lot of beautiful products, but they are all common goods. I don’t know how many of them are sold in a month, and I don’t know how high the chance of seeing the same product as others is!

Under the current conditions, original works are of course the best!

Although Yinbao is usually not very serious, he has a sharp eye. This store is indeed good. They looked at it for a long time without making any purchases, and the clerks kept smiling without any contempt or impatience.

"Do you accept customization?" So Qin Yunxi was too lazy to go to other stores to compare.

"We at Jinyuan Silver Shop naturally accept customization, but we don't make designs from other silver shops. Madam, are you going to provide your own designs or use ours?" The clerk said as he glanced upstairs.

This means that the price of customization is high, especially customization of their own original manuscripts.

"Use our own draft!" Qin Yunxi had naturally made preparations in advance, and Mu Jingheng also took time out to participate in the design.

"Then please come this way, sir!"

Seeing that they were really here to make jewelry, the clerk smiled more sincerely, served them some tea, and quickly left to find the shopkeeper.

The silver shop was busier than the embroidery workshop. They were dressed in ordinary clothes, and Yinbao and Mudan'er's clothes were one section too short. The shopkeeper naturally would not abandon other customers to receive them, so they waited for a long time.

"Jingheng, does this tea taste the same as the tea from Yuanxiufang?" Qin Yunxi said and took another sip. It did taste like the tea!

"The young lady is someone who understands tea! I'm afraid you have just arrived in Mo Nan not long ago? Our Jinyuan Silver House and Yuan Embroidery Workshop are both properties of the Liu family!" The shopkeeper pushed the door open and walked in.

"The Jinyuan Silver House and Yuan Embroidery Workshop do have the same logo on their signs. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, shopkeeper, as I'm new here." Mu Jingheng bowed.

The shopkeeper also bowed in return, and then both sides got down to business.

Mu Jingheng took out the blueprint and explained it to the shopkeeper. They were not professionals and did not understand the process, so the blueprint was naturally different from what the printmaker had drawn.

After that, we discussed the materials, prices, and construction period...

"I wonder if the young master and the young lady are willing to give up their other drawings?" The shopkeeper had been staring at their other drawings.

"Of course we are willing to do so." Mu Jingheng and Qin Yunxi smiled at each other.

They brought out so many drawings, but originally they only planned to make two or three pieces of jewelry, so the extra ones were naturally their purpose!

In fact, this was Qin Yunxi's goal. She couldn't always be forced to support the family.

Mu Jingheng was not the kind of person who was willing to write those pedantic poems to sell, or imitate those down-and-out students and write those mindless books about a young lady falling in love with a poor scholar and eloping to marry him.

Copying books and doing odd jobs for teachers in the academy are jobs that are mostly sought after by people from poor or ordinary families who want to take shortcuts and improve their status. It is time-consuming and laborious, so Qin Yunxi naturally doesn't want him to spend too much time doing these things.

So when she was drawing the jewelry blueprints and Mu Jingheng got involved, she thought of this: what if the jewelry store liked it?

Does this mean that Mu Jingheng now has another way to support his family?

Aren’t all men here responsible for supporting the family?

An ambitious man is more or less unwilling to spend a woman's money. If he can earn money himself, at least he will have fewer concerns when doing what he wants and will be in a better mood!

Of course, regarding the matter of selling jewelry drawings, the two of them must have communicated well, and the other party had no objection before this operation took place.

The shopkeeper was immersed in the shopping mall and it was easy for him to see through their little thoughts, and they did not try to hide it.

But the idea was really good and not a plagiarized or imitated common product, so he was naturally happy to do this favor.

In the end, the silver shop accepted all eight drawings and designs, and paid ten taels of silver for each one. Qin Yunxi's jewelry was made for her free of charge, and then the drafts would be improved by Jinyuan Silver Shop to be made into high-end products, ensuring that they would not be exactly the same as her finished products, not only in appearance but also in materials...

The price was negotiated by Mu Jingheng and the shopkeeper, and it was already a sky-high price after the shopkeeper's discount. After all, these drawings were designed somewhat hastily.

"Sister, are we going to the cloth shop now? Or are we going to the restaurant for lunch later?" Yinbao and Mudaner were so happy when they came out of the silver shop!

The two brothers didn't know how much money their sister and brother-in-law earned today, but they saw that the shopkeeper had confiscated the money from the jewelry and gave them some silver instead!

I have new clothes to wear!

"Well, let's go make clothes first! I'll make two sets for each of you, inside and out!" When Qin Yunxi was in a good mood, she was still very tolerant of them.

Yinbao was very familiar with this area. When he heard his sister's words, he immediately led them forward, fearing that she would regret it if he hesitated for a second.

Qin Yunxi naturally would not go back on her word. Not to mention that they needed to make clothes for herself, she herself might have been growing taller because she had been taking good care of herself and eating well recently!

This is not surprising, this body is only sixteen years old!

In short, her clothes are no longer fitting her anymore and it’s time to replace them.

Making clothes is naturally simpler than making jewelry. You just need to choose the fabric and style and measure the measurements.

Qin Yunxi didn't plan to make her own clothes as it was too time-consuming. She chose plain fabric and planned to embroider some things on it when the clothes were ready.

Taking the weather into consideration this year, we chose light and comfortable fabrics.

In the end, we made two more sets of clothes for each person because their previous clothes were no longer suitable for wearing. The main reason was that we were afraid that they would be too lazy to go out when the weather got hot.

Mu Jingheng's school does have bachelor's uniforms. The price is not low, but the fabric is not bad and worth the money. He feels that it would be a waste to buy four more sets of clothes.

But Qin Yunxi insisted on buying it. You can't always wear the same one or two sets of clothes when interacting with your classmates on a daily basis. It's better to be prepared!

Mu Jingheng naturally couldn't argue with his wife about her fallacies, so he could only let her do what she wanted.

Besides, he can also earn money to support his family. If his wife is happy, he will naturally be even happier. How could he possibly argue with Qin Yunxi over two sets of clothes and ruin her good mood!

After we ordered and paid for the clothes, it still took a few days for them to be made. After we got the voucher, it was already lunchtime, so the family found a restaurant to eat.

The person who was most excited during the meal was the family chef Yinbao.

To be honest, before I was kicked out of the house, I was lucky enough to have something to eat that made my mouth dry, no matter how good the texture or taste was!

He acquired his cooking skills through his own exploration and with the guidance of his sister and brother-in-law. I am really curious about the difference between myself and professional chefs!

Mu Jingheng was almost buried in books every day and couldn't get out. If his wife hadn't come to Mo Nan City with him, he would have wanted to save some time to release waste, not to mention spending so much time on the road every day.

Even sleeping time is squeezed out. Focusing on food, clothing, housing and transportation is impossible!

As for Qin Yunxi, she has finally settled down. The environment is good and life is convenient, so the first priority is of course to maintain her health and take care of her body!

Otherwise, it's just a useless body. How can the previous generation plant trees and the next generation enjoy the shade?

Don’t even think about it!

Of course, keeping healthy is an expensive thing. You can’t just sit back and do nothing. You have to take action to make money!

Busy now!

I don't have money to buy energy for shopping or anything like that, so I can't support that!

Mudan is a good kid. During this period of time, the person he admires most has changed from his sister to his brother-in-law.

Of course, his favorite is still his sister, no doubt about it!

His brother-in-law asked him to read and his sister also liked him to read, so of course he had to be busy reading!

Anything else? No time!

Yinbao is a man with a lot of free time and loves to be in a crowd. The place near the provincial school is full of people who are very cultured and pretentious, which is not really to his taste.

The main street, which is lively and not too far away, became his main battlefield for playing. It is so much fun here!

It is impossible to say that he has never had any thoughts on the small amount of money he usually uses to buy vegetables, but he has no survival skills. It would be too miserable if he was sent back to the countryside for being so greedy. It is not like Yin Bao is illiterate, and he will not do anything to lose the big for the small!

So I could only save a little money to buy snacks, and in the past I could only listen to the fun in restaurants with drooling.

But isn't this the chance today?

After living a good life for a while, Yinbao didn't want to go back to the days before liberation after just one meal, so the restaurant he introduced might have considered it carefully.

It has a good reputation and is affordable! This is the first choice...

If you enjoy the meal, you can come again next time!
