"Big sister, please make a pot of tea first. Second sister, please go find grandma."
Several people were a little panicked when they saw a strange man coming to their door, but under San Ya's arrangement, they were busy and orderly.
"Brother, let's take this thing down first."
Thousands of porcelain bottles must have been heavy, but they didn't need to help at all. The two guys unloaded the baskets from the car and carried them to the yard.
"Miss, there are ten in each row, and one hundred on each floor. Please count them here."
Zhou Mingshu asked the two young men to sit down and have some tea and rest. She took out the basin that was used to wash snails from the woodshed and put the porcelain bottle in it.
In fact, there is no need to count. The things in the shop are arranged very neatly, and you can tell at a glance that the quantities are not fake.
"What's the point of counting? I can tell you gave too much at once. I'll free up the basket for you now, and wait for my grandma to come back and give you the final payment."
The two guys looked at each other with smiles on their lips. They didn't expect that this little girl had such sharp eyes. She knew they gave too much without even counting.
When they make porcelain, the quantity of the products is always more than the quantity ordered by the customers, because there will be some defective products every time the kiln is opened.
Porcelain is fragile, so do more to prevent any accidents.
Usually at this time, Old Mrs. Zhou would bring Si Ya to visit and chat.
Zhou Mingqi was quick on his feet and went to several familiar neighbors' houses before he found Old Mrs. Zhou.
When Mrs. Zhou heard that someone was coming from the porcelain shop, she immediately took her granddaughter back home.
After greeting the two waiters, she went into the house to count the money.
"Grandma, I just counted them and the shopkeeper gave me some extra. The porcelain vase is very beautiful and there are no scratches on it."
Old Mrs. Zhou nodded, counted out the balance to be settled, and then counted out two more copper coins.
Seeing San Ya's confusion, she explained with a smile.
"This is for the two guys at the door. They've worked hard to deliver it. We'll have to make more deliveries for our orders in the future. Porcelain is the easiest to break. We live in the mountains, so they'll remember our kindness and won't delay our business."
What Old Mrs. Zhou said made sense. Zhou Mingshu nodded with surprise in her eyes. She didn't expect that Old Mrs. Zhou would take the initiative to give money to others. After all, the family was so poor that they couldn't even afford to eat.
After the two delivery boys counted the balance and packed it up, Old Mrs. Zhou handed over two more copper coins.
They originally waved their hands to refuse, but unable to resist the enthusiasm of the old lady in front of them, they put the money in their pockets, and the smile on their faces became less resigned and more sincere.
A penny is still money. This is a reward in addition to wages, and it is an unexpected surprise.
After seeing off the two waiters, Old Lady Zhou looked at the porcelain in the basin.
"It's really beautiful. No wonder it's so expensive. The bowls we eat from are as big as this one, and they only cost one penny for four. But this small one costs one penny for two."
Feng touched the porcelain bottle in front of her. There was a piece of grass painted on the green porcelain bottle. Although it was just a simple outline, it was recognizable as mugwort.
The other color is close to goose yellow, and the pattern outlined on it is gardenia, which is extremely beautiful.
"Mom, please stop talking about our bowls. They are not the same thing at all. Look how beautiful this porcelain bottle is. I would be willing to pay for it even if there is no perfume in it."
Zhou Mingqin and Zhou Mingqi standing by also nodded in agreement, saying that the gardenia was really beautifully painted.
Before they could recover from their surprise and satisfaction, they heard a "click".
This is the sound of porcelain breaking...
Turning their heads to look at Zhou Minghua behind them, several people were stunned for a moment. Xiao Minghua herself also had a dazed look on her face. She didn't hold it firmly and dropped it. Looking at the porcelain that was broken into several pieces at her feet, she curled her lips and wanted to cry.
Seeing this scene, Feng put down the porcelain bottle in her hand and rushed forward.
"I'm going to beat you to death, you damned girl. It's ok that you're usually so impetuous, but you just dropped the porcelain vase when you got home. You don't feel sorry at all..."
Feng angrily pulled Zhou Minghua over and slapped her a few times, and the little girl's voice became louder.
Zhou Mingshu felt his butt hurt just by watching the force. It seemed that his aunt was very angry.
"Aunt, stop, stop hitting me. Si Ya is still young, she didn't mean it. You are still pregnant with your brother, don't get too excited..."
After Zhou Mingshu reacted, he protected Zhou Minghua behind him and slowly persuaded Feng to calm down.
Old Mrs. Zhou also advised her not to be angry and not to hurt her body.
The eldest sister took the broom and swept the fragments to the corner.
She held Xiao Minghua and walked around the door, coaxing the girl in her arms. Xiao Minghua felt so aggrieved that she cried and sobbed on her shoulder.
"Third sister, I didn't mean it. I made my mother angry... wuwuwu..."
"It's okay, your mother was just angry for a moment, she will be fine after a while, let's hide farther away so your mother won't be angry if she can't see it, does your butt still hurt, do you want your sister to take a look?"
"pain……"
Zhou Mingshu squatted down, pulled down the little girl's pants and saw two bright red slap marks on them, and her buttocks were swollen.
She hissed, she didn't expect her aunt to be so harsh.
"Okay, lie on your sister's legs and don't move. I'll rub it for you."
As soon as she thought about it, a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao spray appeared in her hand, and then she rubbed the little girl's skin to promote the absorption of the medicine.
"Today I went to my aunt's house for dinner. My aunt gave me a crystal candy. I couldn't bear to eat it. Now I'm giving it to you. If you eat it, you won't cry, okay?"
Zhou Mingshu was holding a light green fruit candy in his hand. It looked very beautiful, and Xiao Ming's painted eyes were staring at it motionlessly.
As her crying gradually subsided, she wiped her tears and nodded.
Zhou Minghua accepted the food she fed him and ate it with relish.
"Si Ya, this is a secret between us. Don't tell anyone else, or else your brother Mingyuan will come and snatch it from you, okay?"
"Third sister, I understand. This crystal candy is really delicious."
Feng felt regretful after giving her daughter those two slaps. Her hands were numb after spanking her daughter. She felt as painful as her daughter felt, and her eyes were red with heartache.
"Look at you. You're pregnant but still have such a bad temper. If it's broken, it's broken. Can you put it back together after beating the child? San Ya told me that the owner of this porcelain shop gave me a few extra pairs because he was afraid that it would break and cause trouble. I didn't say anything and you started fighting."
After Mrs. Zhou said that, Feng couldn't hold it anymore and wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeves.
The moment her daughter broke the porcelain vase, she was a little angry. After all, this was something the Zhou family used for business, and the whole family was counting on these things to make money to pay off debts. In addition to this, she was also afraid that her mother-in-law would be angry. If her mother-in-law wanted to beat her daughter, she might as well do it herself. So she was overwhelmed by these thoughts at the time, and she used as much strength as she could.
