The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 250: Good News From the Old Lady

Good news?

Shu Yu saw the old lady’s expression and couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows. “What good news excites you so much?”

“It’s those dolls that you asked me to make.” The old lady pulled her to sit in  the living room and glanced at the box on the table. She didn’t mind and said, “Didn’t I stuff all the dolls at home and dry them? Then, when Daya returned, I asked her to bring it to the shop for me.”

“There are a total of seven dolls. You asked me to leave two for Sanya and the others to play with. Sanya liked it very much after she got it. She didn’t care about the hot weather. She hugged the cute dog doll and sat at the shop entrance to enjoy the breeze. Beside her feet was the Maneki. Two children who passed by happened to see this. They were extremely envious and ran over to ask Sanya for it.”

“Sanya was so scared that she ran back to the shop. After the children chased after her, they realized that there were several dolls in our shop. We have tigers and monkeys. One of the children took a fancy to a little pig and almost climbed up to the counter to get it.”

Fortunately, the children were followed by servant girls. They quickly stopped the children. Then, one of the servant girls ran to the neighboring silver shop and called the mothers, who were buying jewelry.

The children were clamoring to buy it. The dolls were not expensive. The most complicated one was only 200 coins. To them, it was not enough to go out to a restaurant and order two dishes.

Moreover, the fabric sewn on the doll’s outside was leftover from Madam Ruan’s ready-made clothes. These fabrics were all of good quality. It felt good to the touch and was very comfortable to hold.

The mothers immediately bought the dolls. Not only did they buy two, but they also said that they had a few children at home. They would definitely want them when they saw them, so they bought all the dolls in the shop.

Knowing that there were only seven of them, they were disappointed.

The old lady could tell from their eyes that they liked and wanted it too.

In the end, she even offered the doll in Sanya’s arms.

The seven dolls cost a total of one tael and ten coins. The old lady saw that they had bought it all in one go. She reluctantly discounted the item and charged them one tael of silver.

Of course, this money was not much compared to the price of those ready-made clothes, but it was still one tael of silver.

For farmers like them who stayed in the village all year round and could not earn much money, this money was not small.

“Yu, regardless of whether it’s a boy or a girl, even old people like us like this doll. There will be a lot of people buying it. We don’t have to earn this money deliberately. Anyway, we can use the leftover fabric that your mother makes every day. I’ll go back to the shops to collect the rags and put them in the shops after I make them. What do you think?”

“I think it’s good.”

“Really?” The old lady was happy. The joy of being affirmed almost made her unable to restrain herself from taking action immediately.

Shu Yu saw that she was so happy and immediately nodded heavily. “I’ll leave this matter to you.”

“Erm…” The old lady was a little hesitant, but she soon dispersed that thought. “No problem. Leave it to me. I promise I’ll handle it properly.”

Well, it seemed she had to find her third son’s wife..
