Chapter 187 invites cooperation

In the yard, Xiuhua heard her sister's words, she smiled and shook her head and said, "It's all about the family talking about two things. This time, the three of us went to many places for fun. In the past, we hid in the boat and drank medicine from a jar. Looking at the scenery one more time is afraid of catching the wind and cold, but this time I go out with inexhaustible strength, which makes me very happy."

Liu Zhihua also noticed that her younger sister's face had become rounder, so she was naturally happy for her, and said with a smile: "Being strong is more important than anything else, but after all, the sea is cold on the water, you should wear more clothes to keep warm when you go out in the future. "

  Xiuhua showed happiness on her face, nodded with a smile and said: "Mu Kuan and Cheng'er are more careful about their clothes than I am. There are two small braziers on the boat, one end and one tail are beside the bed, lest I catch cold."

  Hearing that Mu Cheng was mentioned, Liu Zhihua sighed again and said: "Mu Cheng has also been delayed for half a month, and this homework has fallen behind a lot. When Qiusheng comes back tomorrow, let him help make up."

   "What's more, I heard that today is the last day of the county examination, sister, why didn't you go to accompany Qiusheng?"

  Speaking of this matter, Xiuhua's face was full of doubts. This exam is extraordinary, and it stands to reason that her sister and the others should accompany her to the exam.

  Liu Zhihua smiled helplessly, "It's a long story, I'll tell you in detail later."

   After finishing speaking, Liu Zhihua went to the children's room and knocked on the door, shouting: "Your Uncle Xiu is back, come out and meet people."

  Jiaojiao was already dressed, but when she heard that her mother let her out, she opened the door first and walked out with Miaomiao in her arms.

   "Hello Aunt Xiu~"

  After talking with Aunt Xiu, Jiaojiao didn't see her uncle, so she looked around curiously.

  Xiuhua came forward to put her arms around Jiaojiao, and said with a smile, "Jiaojiao, your uncle is carrying things outside, and brought you a lot of things from the sea."

  Jiaojiao's **** eyes blinked, and the corners of her mouth curled up and she said in a waxy voice: "Thank you, Uncle Xiu~"

   "Jiaojiao is so good~"

   Just as he was talking, Mu Kuan walked in with a big wooden box in his arms.

  Jiaojiao looked at the wooden box curiously, and obediently called out: "Hello, Uncle."

  Mu Kuan smiled heartily, walked over with a smile on his face and said, "Young girl, my uncle will bring you something fun."

  At this time, Erya and Xiao Li also came out of the room.

  The two were very happy to see Aunt Xiu and Uncle Xiu, and shouted one after the other:

   "Hello Aunt Xiu, hello Uncle."

   "Hello, Uncle Xiu."

  Mu Kuan put down the box and replied with a smile: "Okay."

  Xiuhua touched the heads of the two babies, and said with a smile: "Hey, it's been a long time since I saw Erya and Xiao Li have grown taller. Our Erya looks like a big girl, so pretty."

  Erya smiled embarrassedly, "Thank you, Aunt Xiu." Then she ran to her uncle with her shofar braid and asked curiously, "Uncle, what are you doing?"

  Mu Kuan opened the lid, and all he saw were shells with colorful patterns and several large conch shells.

  Jiaojiao and Xiao Li also walked over curiously, the three children had never seen these things by the sea, each of them wanted to reach out to touch but dared not, and stared at that thing eagerly.

  Seeing this, Mu Kuan directly picked up the conch shell to demonstrate to them, held it in his hands and listened with his ears, and explained: "Look at it like uncle, there is the sound of sea waves inside."

  Hearing, each of the children picked one and put it in their ears.

   "Wow, it really has sound!"

   "Is this the sound of the sea? Rusha's ears are so comfortable."

   "The taste of this sea snail is like the smell of fresh fish when changing the water in the pond."

After Erya listened to it and showed it to her mother, Liu Zhihua leaned over to listen curiously, was startled immediately, and said with a smile: "Oh, it's really strange that there is such a loud sound coming from such a small thing. "

Xiuhua is used to it, and said to her sister with a smile: "When I first went to sea in the early years, I was shocked when I heard it. Later, I got used to it when I saw it a lot. At that time, I even secretly sent these rare things to my sister. Son, how could I not have delivered it to you."

  Liu Zhihua's chest was a little stuffy after hearing this, and she felt that the family was in vain.

  But it has been so many years, and it's meaningless to mention it again, so she didn't want to.

   "Okay, you guys come in and sit down, I'll cook for you two."

  Xiuhua stopped her and said, "Sister, don't be so busy, we ate when we sent Cheng'er to the town."

   "Then let's go to the room to talk." Liu Zhihua greeted.

   "Sister, you talk to Xiuhua, and the kids and I are outside." Mu Kuan smiled and said, the main brother-in-law is not there, so he has nothing to say as a big man to follow up.

  Xiuhua chuckled, took her sister's arm and said, "He's a big bastard, let's leave him alone, sister, let's go."

   "Alright, let them chat when your brother-in-law comes back..."

  The two sisters entered the main house, while Mu Kuan stayed with a few children to identify shells.

  …

  It was getting dark, and Wang Zhuangzhi returned in his carriage.

  Liu Zhihua and Xiuhua cooked a table full of dishes just to clean up Qiusheng, but only one person in charge came in outside the door.

   "Head of the house, where is Qiu Sheng?" Liu Zhihua hurried forward and asked.

  Wang Zhuangzhi smiled, and explained: "Qiusheng was discussing the exam questions with his classmates in the county seat, and the few of them chatted lively. After I settled him down, he came back by himself. We will all go to the county seat tomorrow morning to wait for the posting."

  Liu Zhihua was a little disappointed when she heard that, but she still nodded and said: "Well, fortunately, Xiuhua and her brother-in-law are here, otherwise there would be nothing left to cook such a big table."

  Hearing that Mu Kuan was coming, Wang Zhuangzhi smiled and went straight to the main house.

  The two families got together again, eating and chatting about this period of time.

  Xiuhua has already learned about their business from her sister, and she is also happy for her sister and brother-in-law. After all, her sister's family had a hard life before, and now it is finally coming to an end.

Hearing the deeds of his sister and brother-in-law's family, Mu Kuan smiled embarrassedly and said, "Actually, I also found a business during this trip. Because of insufficient funds, I am powerless but don't want to miss the opportunity. I want to find friends who used to sail together to join the crew."

  Wang Zhuangzhi heard that he didn't have enough funds, so he hurriedly said, "How much is my brother-in-law short? Not enough for us."

  Hearing that, Mu Kuan was full of gratitude, and continued with a smile: "Brother-in-law, I told you this, mainly because I just heard that you are now earning a lot of business income, so I want to find you to partner in business."

Wang Zhuangzhi hurriedly waved his hand when he heard this, and said with a smile, "I rely on people for the business of this pharmacy, and I don't even know anything about sea goods. Brother-in-law, if you can do it, you can do it yourself. I will lend you money if you need it. You don't have to worry." return."

   "Brother-in-law, don't be in a hurry, just listen to me and finish slowly, and then you can decide whether to do it or not." Mu Kuan smiled and spoke very confidently.

  Afterwards, he told Wang Zhuangzhi about the deal.

   "Brother-in-law doesn't know that there are many ships on the sea nowadays, most of them are private cargo ships. In order to earn business, the price is lowered again and again. Now the profit margin is not big, and the money is not easy to earn. Along the way, I met a lot of poor people complaining."
