Tian Jiao wanted to wake up 0521 and ask him who Liu Si did business with with the remaining money in the family?

Funerals aren't cheap these days.

After paying for Liu Si's funeral, only ten taels of money were left in the family.

But he remembered that Liu Si took the money when he went out. Could he find a way to get it back?

0521 was in a very deep sleep and Tian Jiao couldn't wake him up no matter how hard he tried. So he had to give up for the moment.

The next day, Tian Jiao carried the fifth and sixth brothers on his back and took Liu Heng, Qiaoying and a few others on the ox cart to the city.

The people in the car knew that Tian Jiao wanted to send Qiaoying and the other girls to the embroidery building, so they all tried to persuade her.

"Sister Jiao, we know it's not easy for you to raise several children by yourself, but Xiulou is not a good place. If we really send our daughter to Xiulou, we don't know if everything will be fine."

"Sister Jiao, even though you are their stepmother, you are still their children's relative. How can you push them into the embroidery building just for a few bucks?"

"That's right, if you really think Qiaoying and the others are annoying, you might as well send them away as child brides, which is worse than sending them to Xiulou."

Tian Jiao listened to their chatter and felt very upset. He couldn't bear it any longer when he heard them talking about child brides.

Tian Jiao: "Bah! Who don't know what you're thinking? I tell you, I love to send my sister Jiao's daughter to the embroidery building to earn a few hundred coins! If you say one more word, don't blame me for saying something unpleasant."

"You don't spend enough time with me, so you're wrong to think I'm a good person. You'd better not say anything bad to offend me, or you'll be in trouble!"

Tian Jiao said this with murderous eyes. He would kill anyone who dared to covet his daughter!

The women in the village probably didn't expect Tian Jiao to explode like this. They were all trapped by her. Later, when they wanted to teach her a lesson, they had no chance because they had already reached the city.

Tian Jiao first sent Liu Heng to the private school, explained to the teacher why Liu Heng was absent, and then settled him down and brought Qiaoying and the others to the embroidery building.

There is a reason why the Embroidery Tower is regarded as a scary place. The manager of the Embroidery Tower is a fierce-looking woman with a fierce face. It is said that she used to be a butcher. Later, when she had money, she opened an embroidery tower and took in some embroiderers with very strange tempers and personalities.

When Tian Jiao saw the woman with a face full of flesh and as strong as an iron tower, his heart skipped a beat. Although he knew that the Embroidery Tower was a place for women to learn women's work, it was really scary to have such a fierce manager.

When the manager saw Tian Jiao and the others, he said coldly:

"Come to my embroidery building to learn the craft, but I don't care whether you live or die."

Tian Jiao was feeling nervous, but he still pushed Qiaoying and the others towards the manager.

Tian Jiao: "The father of the children at home has passed away. The eldest is studying, and the two younger ones need someone to take care of them. These younger ones also need to have food to eat."

Qiaoying and the others stood in front of the steward with nervous hearts, watching the steward and Tian Jiao sign and stamp the document, and watching Tian Jiao leave with the six hundred coins.

Qiao Lian and Qiao Xiang were young and were so scared that they were crying.

Qiaoying was older, so she caught up with Tian Jiao in a few steps and said, "Mom, will you come and take us home?"

She can go home for three days every three months, and someone from her family must come to pick her up. If no one comes, she cannot leave the embroidery building.

Tian Jiao nodded, "You should study hard in the embroidery building and listen to the master. I will take you over when you have mastered the skills."

Qiaoying thought that Tian Jiao would not come to pick them up in the short term, and she felt so heavy that she could hardly breathe.

Tian Jiao knew how Qiaoying and the others felt, but he was determined to leave them no way out, otherwise they would not be able to study in the embroidery building with peace of mind.

Tian Jiao took the six hundred coins, but it was not the wages for Qiaoying and the others, but the money she earned from selling the embroidery patterns.

Although the manager looked fierce, he had a good heart. He was fond of her embroidery patterns and did not bargain for them. He gave her six hundred coins for two embroidery patterns.

Tian Jiao felt a lot more relaxed holding the six hundred coins.

With these six hundred coins, she could buy a few more chickens and ducks to raise.

With the thriving domestic animals, I think his business of raising chickens and ducks will go smoothly.

Tian Jiao took Xiaowu and Xiaoliu with him along the way. Although he felt sorry for them, he still didn't buy any delicious food for them.

On the way back to the city, Tian Jiao did not take the ox cart. Instead, he saved the money for taking the ox cart and carried Xiaowu and Xiaoliu home on his back.

It was already noon when Tian Jiao returned home. Xiaowu and Xiaoliu were also hungry, but they both behaved well and didn't say a word, letting Tian Jiao busy himself with taking care of the chicks he had bought.

Their stomachs were growling with hunger, but they covered their stomachs with their little hands and coaxed them to stop growling.

When Tian Jiao heard their noise, he suddenly remembered that he still had two little kids, Xiaowu and Xiaoliu, at home.

Tian Jiao didn't bother to blame himself and went to cook. He steamed two egg custards to fill the stomachs of Xiaowu and Xiaoliu, and ate two potatoes to fill his own stomach.

She is with the mute woman in the village

I bought fifty chicks. Each chick was very expensive, costing five cents.

Fifty chicks cost her two hundred and fifty coins.

The mute woman laughed so hard that her teeth were showing, but Tian Jiao knew she was genuinely happy.

Tian Jiao can be said to be her biggest customer.

Villagers usually hatch eggs themselves and never buy chicks. It was only him, a loser who didn't know how to hatch, who had to spend money to buy chicks.

Moreover, he was a stranger in the village, so the mute woman would naturally take advantage of him if she could.

But Tian Jiao didn't mind. He would learn how to hatch eggs in the future. Now he just hoped that he could raise these fifty chicks.

Tian Jiao was making a chicken coop for the chickens. It was dark when she finally finished it. Her hands were covered with tiny cuts.

Tian Jiao thought that this couldn't be allowed. She still had to make money by embroidery in the future, and she couldn't let her hands get hurt.

Tian Jiao coaxed Xiaowu and Xiaoliu to sleep, and then he fell asleep too.

The family is not well off now, and lamp oil and candles are not cheap, so he should just take a rest first.

The next morning at four o'clock, when it was already light, Tian Jiao got up and steamed egg custard for Xiaowu and Xiaoliu.

I ate two more potatoes to fill my stomach.

The first thing he did was to look at the chicks. He found that they were very lively, so he felt relieved and fed them all. Then Tian Jiao took advantage of the good weather to tidy up the yard.

The house they bought was a big blue brick and tile house, and the price was very attractive, so it was no wonder that the mute woman overcharged him.

The villagers might be thinking about how much money they have at home.

After all, their blue brick and tile house is the only one in the village. It was originally built by a landlord, but later the landlord moved to the city and the house was sold.

Tian Jiao didn't remember how much the house cost because he hadn't seen the title deed, but he was sure that the house must not have been cheap.

But there is no way, they have many children and the house cannot be small.

Tian Jiao is now busy tidying up the land in the yard and planting vegetables.
