Chapter 63: Return of the Chen Family

In addition, she and Sister Yuanxiang have a lot of things to buy when she came to the market today. I'm afraid it's too late. Xia Fei'er's eyes rolled and said, "Boss, we still have a lot of things to do today. It takes time to draw patterns. In this way, I will wait until I go back to draw them, and then let Sister Yuanxiang embroider the patterns they draw directly on silk scarves or sachets, and bring them to the boss's wife for the next time to go to the market, so that they can see them more realistically."

"If the boss is satisfied, you can use those samples to show the customers in the future, and the people will look better when it comes to goods. In this way, I will not charge you money for the first few pictures, and it is considered a gift for the bridesmaids. But according to what you said, I will give my sister Yuanxiang five-part work money for each embroidery work. Is that okay?"

"What if I'm not satisfied?" After hearing Xia Feier's words, the boss's wife did not react much, but just looked at Xia Feier and asked.

"If you are not satisfied, I will pay for the embroidery myself and I will not let the boss take the loss." Xia Feier's words were full of confidence.

The boss's wife looked at Xia Feier's trustworthy look and her lips curled up. No matter whether this girl has real material or speaks big talk, for a teenage girl, having this courage is worth seeing.

A hint of admiration flashed across her face, and she did not directly answer Xia Fei'er's words. Instead, she smiled and asked Yuan Xiang, who was on the side, "Yuan Xiang, is this your dear girl? Why haven't you seen you bring her to my store before?"

Yuanxiang was already shocked by Xia Feier's words. She thought to herself. Feier, who usually talks in front of her family, isn't that important, but when she sees outsiders today, she is so rude. When will she draw something, she praises such big words, saying that she must be good at drawing, but even said that she would ask for twenty-months a pair. If she can't hand it over at that time, wouldn't the boss's wife think that she is teasing and playing with others? Thinking of it, she glared at Xia Feier secretly.

After realizing that the boss lady was asking her, she hurriedly reacted and returned: "It's my uncle's daughter, but we grew up together, just like a biological girl, the boss lady. If I have anything wrong with me, I, don't blame him, as her child is not serious."

The proprietress smiled and said, "Yuanxiang, it's okay. This little girl is straightforward. Mei Qianer likes to talk to this little girl. But you want to learn from you, a girl. We have known each other for so long and are still so reserved. How many times have I said, don't call me the proprietress, just call me Sister Qianer." After Mei Qianer said that, she patted Yuanxiang's hand casually.

Yuan Xiang seemed a little flattered, and she responded hurriedly: "Yes, old... no, Sister Qian'er. Remember it in the future.

The proprietress smiled at Yuanxiang, then turned her head to say to Xia Feier, "Little girl. Since you are so confident, and you are Yuanxiang's sister, Yuanxiang has been doing embroidery work in my store for several years and has always been very honest. I naturally believe Yuanxiang's sister. Then according to what you said, you can draw a few more patterns at home these days, and then let your sister Yuanxiang embroider it, and send it to the store next market day."

"But I have a requirement. If the tricks are not good, I don't want you to buy all these things. But you just asked for so much handmade money for Sister Yuanxiang to give her yourself. In other words, if you draw well, you and Sister Yuanxiang have money to collect. If the drawing is not good, you will both lose."

No wonder people say that there is no businessman, and such a beautiful boss who looks easy to talk to is actually so cunning. She seems to be a good person and says that if her tricks are not good, she should not buy them by herself, but she has to pay Sister Yuanxiang’s salary. She seems generous, but in fact she has taken all the advantages.

She knew that if she didn't accept her own tricks, Sister Yuanxiang would definitely not ask her to pay her wages. What she actually meant was that she would have to draw good tricks for Sister Yuanxiang's wages. This was putting pressure on herself in disguise.

Although she saw the boss's thoughts, Xia Feier was still confident in these things, and it was not to say that she believed in her creativity. However, it was no problem to draw something they had never heard of and had never seen before. Xia Feier nodded and agreed without any hesitation.

Seeing that she did not hesitate, the boss agreed, and smiled faintly, saying, "Okay, just wait to see if the little girl draws it as good as you said."

Xia Feier nodded, and the two agreed to hand over the tricks when they went to the market next time. When Yuanxiang and the boss's wife handed over the embroidery work that was going back, Xia Feier and Yuanxiang walked out of the store.

After leaving the silk shop farther away, Yuan Xiang held Fei'er's arm while asking in disbelief: "Fei'er, is the thing you just told the boss's wife true? Are you really good at drawing tricks?"

Xia Feier didn't know how to answer. She knew that if she said she could draw, Yuan Xiang would definitely ask her why and where she learned it. Xia Feier and Yuan Xiang grew up together, and they had a very close relationship. They probably didn't know anything. Xia Feier was hesitating, and Yuan Xiang, who was standing beside him, stopped and looked at Xia Feier nervously, and held Xia Feier's arm tightly. She asked, "Feier, you are not talking casually and lied to the boss's wife, right?"

Xia Feier held her forehead with a headache. She wanted to tease Yuanxiang, but she was afraid that she was really anxious. She smiled and said to her: "What did I do to lie to her? I won't get any benefits if I lie to her. She promised to give me money, but she had to draw the tricks before she could give it money. Sister Yuanxiang, don't be nervous, let's go buy things first, and I'll draw it for you when I get home."

"I remember you didn't know how to draw before. When did you learn it? Can you really draw it?" Yuan Xiang was not as nervous as before, but the questions asked gave Xia Feier a headache.

Xia Fei'er didn't explain to her, but just dragged her forward in a hurry, saying as she walked: "Sister Yuanxiang, it's getting late now. Don't ask so many questions, otherwise we won't be able to go home by the afternoon. My house is still waiting for me to go back to cook. Let's buy things quickly and explain to you when I go back to paint, okay?"

After hearing Xia Feier's words, Yuan Xiang looked up at the sun, and then realized that it was indeed getting late, so she immediately followed Xia Feier's footsteps and walked forward.

The two of them didn't return home until noon. Xia Feier first returned to Yuanxiang's house. She bought a lot of things in the town today, such as grain, some necessary daily necessities, and some seasonings for cooking. She returned all the things she borrowed from Yuanxiang's house two days ago. Yuanxiang refused to ask for it, but Xia Feier insisted on giving it to it, and said that if Yuanxiang didn't accept it, she would not come to her house to borrow things in the future. Yuanxiang could not do so, so she had to accept those things.

Then he told Xia Feier to draw those tricks earlier. If it was too late, he would not be able to get out of it. As for how Xia Feier could draw those, Yuan Xiang didn't ask anymore. I don't know if she forgot to ask or could see that Xia Feier was reluctant to say it. In short, she didn't ask anymore, but just told Xia Feier to draw it soon.

After the two of them said these things, Xia Feier planned to go home. Yuanxiang sent her to the door. Before she could walk out of the door, she seemed to hear a swearing sound from Xia Feier's house. The two stood and listened for a while. It was Xia Feier's sister-in-law Chen's curse. Yuanxiang grabbed Xia Feier and said, "Feier, why don't you go home. When the uncle and the others are all back at noon, you will go back again, otherwise you will be alone at home. Your sister-in-law will not know what will treat you?"

"No, I'll go back and see what she's scolding. And I always look at her alone. It's not a solution to hide. Sister Yuanxiang, don't worry, she dare not do anything to me?" Although Xia Fei'er said this, she was still a little scared. If Chen just scolded her, she wouldn't be afraid, but if Chen really did, she wouldn't be able to beat Chen, but she could not hide from Chen for the rest of her life. She would still have to go back.

Seeing that Xia Feier insisted on going back, Yuanxiang grabbed Xia Feier, and then told Chenxiang to cook at home. He said to Xia Feier: "That's the case, then I'll go back with you. What if she wants, I can help you."

Xia Fei'er knew that she would not be relieved if she didn't let her go with her. She smiled sweetly at Yuan Xiang, walked towards her house with Chen Xiang's arm.

Before Fei and the others reached the door, they heard Chen scolding people from afar. When they approached the yard, they saw Chen pointing at Xia Jinzhu with their waists on their backs and scolding: "You damn it, weren't you very energetic when you hit me that day? I just said a few words to you and grabbed me and beat me to death. Why are you now being treated like this by your family and you don't even dare to say a word?"

"I haven't been home for a few days. If you don't go to find me, you can't even keep the things in the house. I finally snatch some things at home, but people have taken them out. They don't even think about your good things. They also say they want to separate the family and want our family to live a single life. You dare not refute it. Your father wants to separate the family, right? OK, he can give out five taels of silver, so I agree to split the family, otherwise there will be no door."

Chen was cursing vigorously. When she looked at Xia Jinzhu looking at the gate of the yard, she immediately turned around. When she saw Xia Feier, she was stunned for a while. Then, not only did not curse Xia Feier, but her voice seemed to be softer and she said, "Feier, you are back just right, I'm looking for you."
