Chapter 658: gather sand into a tower
Chapter 658 Gathering sand into a tower
Yang Lan'er has been paying special attention to avoid being burdened by fame.
This is true of the incident of bandits entering the village in Shangxin Village, and it is also true of the cheap food this time.
For the rest of her life, she only wants to live a comfortable life. Fame will only become a shackle to imprison her, making her have scruples in acting in the future, and she cannot let go of her hands and feet to do what she likes to do.
Of course, if Yang Lan'er is not required to be responsible, she can still contribute to some things.
Qin Lan curled her lips, muttering in her heart: If it’s out of stock, say it’s out of stock, which is a grandiose statement.
Mrs. Qin saw such a scene today. As the wife of the general who is in charge of the border, she has done so much silently for the people of Pengcheng in Yang Lan'er, and it is impossible for her to lag behind.
"Everything Mrs. Tan has done before has been loyal to the country and the people. It is a bit difficult for us to let her cloth shop sell cheap cloth and cotton."
"Instead of embarrassing others here, it is better to do something practical."
Mrs. Cheng coughed in embarrassment. After all, this is her own house, and the party was held by herself. Mrs. Qin's words like this are no less than a slap in the face, but the task entrusted to her by her husband has not been completed yet!
"What Ma'am said is that Madam Tan was wronged by my poor hospitality." After finishing speaking, she bowed deeply to Yang Lan'er. Fu looked at Mrs. Qin again, and humbly asked:
"Madam, do you have any good suggestions that can help the poor people in Pengcheng?"
Mrs. Qin felt that she had underestimated the magistrate's wife before. Not only was she good at dancing with her sleeves, but she also acted so lowly.
Can bend and stretch!
However, looking at Mrs. Cheng's sincere eyes, it seems that the county magistrate Cheng still cares about the people of Pengcheng. Based on this, Mrs. Qin's eyes softened when she looked at her.
"It's not a suggestion, it's just my personal thoughts."
Mrs. Cheng felt relieved when she heard the words, "Madam, please tell me."
Mrs. Qin reached out and patted Yang Lan'er's hand under the table, and smiled at her: "After all, personal power is limited, and Lan'er can do what she can."
"But many of our ladies present here represent each family. We can do something for the people of Pengcheng together. If we unite as one, we will make money and things together."
Yang Lan'er's eyes lit up when she heard this, and it coincided with her thoughts. She originally wanted to bring it up at the right time, but Mrs. Qin thought of it with her.
So good.
Yang Lan'er doesn't need to stand out by herself, she always likes to keep a low profile.
Actually, a lot of cotton is planted in her space, which cannot be provided by cloth, but cotton can still be provided.
Of course, Yang Lan'er couldn't rashly take out a lot of cotton under the condition of heavy snow and ice.
…
A few days after returning from Cheng Mansion, Yang Lan'er ordered Steward Wang to collect old clothes, shoes and bedding that the family didn't need to wear.
Actually, Yang Lan'er knows that they just moved here this year, and most of the servants at home are newly bought, so where can they find so many old clothes to collect.
Thinking of this, Yang Lan'er ordered Lichun to get some coarse cloth from the cloth shop, and then she tried to find a way to get a small amount of cotton from the space, so that the family could make a batch of cotton clothes.
"Ma'am, we just want to donate money and goods, why don't we just donate cloth and cotton, why should we spend money and effort to make cotton clothes for them?"
Lichun was resentful, thinking that these were white-eyed wolves. In order to prevent them from starving to death, the wife had already sold the grain shop at a low price and was not satisfied. She even wanted to open the cheap cloth and cotton for them again.
I am really full and want to dress warmly!
Do you still have to think about it when you are dressed warmly?
It's not worth spending a lot of money for these white-eyed wolves!
