17. Chapter 17 Eat river sand?
Author: Lao Huang next door 007
Song Yiren still followed Uncle Song's ox cart back to the village. Since she made money, she has no plans to save this money.
After all, we are rich! I am a beautiful little girl! I am still pregnant! Song Yiren thought happily.
On the way, she calculated that she sold 80 cakes today, plus the newly made braised pork rice. Excluding the cost of rice, flour, meat and seasonings, she made a net profit of 70 cents. The main reason is that braised pork is suitable for mass production. She produces a small amount of production in this way, and spreads out the seasonings with labor and ingredients, and the cost is expensive! The whole thing is naturally less.
But Song Yiren had a plan in her mind that she could not keep setting up a mobile stall. This braised pork rice is famous for being difficult for others to imitate, and she would also use it as a signboard to open a small shop in the future!
As soon as the ox cart arrived at the entrance of the village, he saw the eldest daughter-in-law Zheng of the Ma family coming up to help Song Yiren get things. He also greeted warmly: "It's Yiren, I just said who is back! I smelled the fragrance of meat floating on your body from a distance. This big bag of small buckets must have made a lot of money!"
"It's Mrs. Zheng!" Song Yiren took the basket from Zheng's hand and said politely: "Sister-in-law, you have to be polite, I can do it myself!"
Zheng himself did not really want to help. When he saw her taking it, he stopped caring about it. Instead, he poked Song Yiren with his elbow and pretended to whisper, "Tell your sister-in-law secretly, how is the business?"
"Don't mention it, you know, everyone can make pancakes. I just found a few tricks and thought they could sell them at a good price!" Song Yiren said angrily. "Who knows that they think pancakes are expensive. I waited until the end, and I couldn't carry them back. I could only sell them at a low price."
"Really? Yiren, our family is an outsider. You, to put it bluntly, Song Yi is not you, he is considered an outsider!" Zheng looked at her up and down, as if he wanted to see a hole in her so that he could tell whether what she said was true or not. "If you want to say that the people in Songjiazhuang are farts, they have to cover themselves in the quilt and eat them by themselves. Humph! We outsiders must unite!"
"Yiren! Come back and see the child!" Aunt Li, who had his second son helping, had already taken the child to her house to wait. It seemed as if he could hear Zheng's voice from afar. He quickly came out to greet Song Yiren and asked his second son to help carry things.
Song Yiren used the excuse that the child might be looking for his mother, so she brought something with Aunt Li's second son Jin Bao, and left Zheng behind and went into the far door.
Zheng shook his veil behind them and said in a petty manner: "What? He has become a cousin. Does that old Mrs. Li still want her second son to marry her?"
Zheng and Aunt Li's family are opposite each other, and there is a way into the village in between. Naturally, Aunt Li once liked Song Yiren as Er'er's daughter-in-law, but due to the fifty taels of bride price from Old Mrs. Chen, the matter was not done in the end. "Bah! The broken pot is matched with a rotten lid!"
"Don't talk too much to Zheng. She was famously arrogant when she was in her parents' home. She was not easy to talk to, otherwise it would be better for the poor Buddha to leave his body and the second Buddha ascends to heaven to marry him!" Aunt Li quickly stepped forward and grabbed Song Yiren's hand and reminded him.
"I understand my aunt, I told her that I can't sell food so I can't sell it at a low price!" Song Yiren blinked at Aunt Li mischievously.
"That's good! That's good!" Aunt Li looked at Song Yiren who seemed to have "grown up" overnight, thinking that she was because of a sudden change. She looked gentle on the surface, but had a sense of tenacity inside. For a moment, she thought: If Yiren had this energy at the beginning, why would she have suffered so much rubbing in the Song family? Maybe... maybe she would have become with Jinbao!
She didn't expect that Song Yiren had already changed into a sprig!
When Song Yiren entered the yard, he found that there were a lot of fungi, fungus and wild vegetables collected today, and they had been washed and sorted in large basins. The water tanks in the yard and the house were also full.
"Brother Jinbao, you picked the water, thank you!" Song Yiren thanked openly.
But Jinbao's ears turned red. Fortunately, no one noticed it. Jinbao nodded and said, "Mom said I can't take your money for nothing. I'll go home three times a month, and I'll come to help you with work every seventh!"
Aunt Li's second son Jin Bao is 21 years old this year. He is about the same age as Song Yiren, but he has never married. Song Yiren may not be because of his poor family or because of his unfinished marriage with the original owner that year. After that year, he went to the county restaurant to be an apprentice. He can rest for one day on the seventh, seventeenth, and twenty-seventh day of every month and come home.
"Aunt, this is today's money. I earn less today, and I will give you 20% of the profit every day!" Song Yiren still took out fourteen copper coins. "I won't pay for the work that Brother Jinbao helped me do today. I will discuss with Brother Jinbao later. If you make money, I will also share it with Brother Jinbao!"
"I am an old lady, so I am not worth so much money! What money will Jinbao give?" Aunt Li did not refuse like the first time. She knew that Yiren earned more and gave more, so she knew.
"Auntie, Brother Jinbao, I'll make some fresh things for everyone to make snacks today!"
"This child is just talking nonsense. Old lady, I am still a little stingy! Giving the children is serious!" Aunt Li glared at her with a angrily look, but her hands and feet were quick to help.
Song Yiren turned around and saw that the oldest Cui Xi was leading her younger brother and sister to water the vegetable garden she was busy with a little bit apart a few days ago. She looked decent, so she ignored it.
"Brother Jinbao, let's go to the river in Houya later with the big sieve at home."
"Do you fish? Then I can go by myself. Mom and my sister are at home!" Jin Bao didn't know why, why did you bring a sieve to fish? Could it be that you have to sieve the fish?
"If you don't suck fish, we will sifle the river sand!" Song Yiren took the first step to walk out of the yard with the sack at home.
"Ah? We can't sell some river sand in person!" Jin Bao was even more confused. Daliang Rivers are many, especially in the south. People dig sand to clear the river every year, and some of them will be bought as building materials, but only part of them is far more than needed. Moreover, the river sand they make is not worth buying once!
"No money is sold, make delicious food!" Song Yiren said happily. If she hadn't been pregnant, Aunt Li and Jin Bao would have suspected that she could jump up.
"Yiren has many ideas. Listen to her, let's dig the river sand!" After re-recognizing Song Yiren over the past few days, Aunt Li expressed her unconditional belief in her and immediately invited a few children to go together.
"Auntie, please take the child with you, don't go there. It's dangerous by the river. You can pick some nine-lantern lotus again!" The previous few times I picked some of the small dumplings, not too many, not enough for everyone to taste it and let Jinbao take it away.
"Okay, then let Jinbao go alone. You are a pair of people and you have work at home!" Aunt Li said.
Seeing that she was tired all day long, Aunt Li was afraid that she would be better and thought that cooking at home would be easy. However, Song Yiren was thinking that it was indeed not suitable for her to stay with Brother Jin Bao, so she agreed.
