Chapter 262 Hu’s little thoughts

 Chu Jianmu waved his hands hurriedly, "I didn't want to buy him, I just asked him if he would like to work in my store. I will take care of his food and pay him for his work."

There was surprise in the woman's eyes. Her son was too young. Apart from selling him to a wealthy family as a servant, almost no one was willing to hire such a young child. Now Chu Jianmu was willing to give him a place to live and a meal to eat.

She is willing even if she is not paid.

So, when Chu Jianmu came back, there were four more people in the carriage. In addition to the mother and son, and the woman who was kicked out by her husband's family, there was also the daughter of the woman who was kicked out by her husband's family.

Chu Jianmu looked at the little girl who called him master with a sweet voice, and for a moment he doubted that he was not the stingy Chu Jianmu he used to be. How could he let her treat his little girl just because she looked pitiful?

Did you bring it?

Although this little girl doesn't need to be paid and doesn't have much to eat, she can't do anything at such a young age and has to be coaxed by someone. Alas, this person really can't be too kind, otherwise he can only dig holes.

Bury yourself.

Chu Jianmu thought like this as the carriage returned to the villa.

During this period of time, He Yue made four more pots of braised food, and they were all sold out in a short time. Many people had a good meal yesterday and took a carriage to buy them today.

Seeing Chu Jianmu coming back, with four people, two large and two small, behind him, He Yue was still a little confused for a moment.

In order to avoid suspicion, she asked Chu Jianmu to buy as many women as possible, but she didn't say to buy children? The older of the two children was fine and could help with some small jobs in the store, while the younger one could.

What? You still have to worry about her not getting burned by the hot soup because of her playfulness.

But after hearing what Chu Jianmu said about the experiences of their two families, how could He Yue, who was already soft-hearted, complain about Chu Jianmu? With tears in her eyes, she asked the two women to just work hard in the store. Their family would not treat her badly.

Got them.

The woman who was originally worried that her mistress would be difficult to get along with now felt relieved and promised He Yue that she would not be lazy.

Even though Chu Jianmu had just softened his heart, he still had to follow the rules. He had much more requirements for these two women than hired people.

But on the way back in the car, without saying anything in front of their children, Chu Jianmu asked the two children to sit in front. Chu Jianmu called the two women to the back and explained the rules he had set with a stern face.

, if they dare to cheat, he won’t mind selling them back to the dental shop.

The woman who was originally grateful to him for not separating their mother and son repeatedly promised that she would do a good job and would not disappoint the master and his wife.

With the help of two women, she doesn't have to do things like killing chickens and preparing ingredients. She can only help when she is too busy. All she has to do on weekdays is stir-fry and watch the heat of the pot, which makes it easy all of a sudden.

Come down.

Chu Jianmu, who was in front, was not idle either. He was collecting money and greeting customers. After busying at the front store, he would also be busy at the back store from time to time. He was like a spinning top.

They were busy until the evening, and today's braised food was all sold out, not counting the new ingredients added in the afternoon. Counting the five taels of silver earned today, the couple was so excited that they didn't know what to say.

No wonder the shops in the villa dare to charge tens of taels a month for rent. This money is really easy to earn.

This means that the two of them were short of manpower at the beginning. Otherwise, if they had to sell more things, they would be able to dream of earning dozens of taels a day.

Well, there is no shortage of people in the store now, so I will have people deliver more ingredients tomorrow.

Lin Xiaoman said that chickens can be sold whole, or they can be sold separately. The places that are easy to sell are more expensive, and the places that are not easy to sell are cheaper. In the end, they are more expensive than selling whole chickens individually.<

/p>

In the evening, the business was closed and the couple returned home with the braised food left for their family.

One chicken, two rolls of dried tofu, and some bits and pieces that were not suitable for takeout. He Gaoyu ate the braised meat brought back by his daughter and son-in-law, and praised it so much that he drank two more glasses of wine.

He Gaoyu was shocked when he heard that Chu Jianmu said that he had made five taels of silver in one day at his home. When his family's business was the most profitable, they didn't dare to say that they could earn five taels of silver in one day.

Although shocked, everyone was still happy, especially Mr. He and Mrs. He, who were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.

The old couple both asked He Yuechu Jianmu to listen to Xiaoman more in the future. Xiaoman is a person who cares about family ties and will never treat them badly.

He Yuechu Jianmu nodded repeatedly. Even if Lin Xiaoman didn't give them the recipe for braised meat, the shop she gave them alone was enough to show that she regarded them as her own.

He Mingrui is also happy for his sister and brother-in-law. Today Lin Erhu took him to meet the wives of Hedong Village. He was attracted by Mr. Xu and will officially go to study with Mr. Xu tomorrow.

Lin Erhu secretly told him that Mr. Xu had taught the prince how to read before he was exiled. He had never dared to think of being able to consult such a great scholar, but now he wanted to be his student. It was really a graveyard for his ancestors.

There is smoke.

Just as he was thinking about it, Madam Hu next to him pulled his sleeve. When He Mingrui looked at him in confusion, Madam Hu looked like he was hesitant to speak.

He Mingrui knew that his wife was somewhat petty and timid, so she could only smile and ask: "What's wrong?"

Seeing everyone at the table looking at He Mingrui's question, Hu's face turned red, "No, it's okay."

He Mingrui was confused, and his mother Pangzi smiled and said: "Mingrui, don't just talk. Your wife is thin-skinned. Maybe she wants to eat the chicken. The chicken legs are divided among the children. Give her the chicken wings."

He Mingrui suddenly realized, "We are all members of our own family. We can eat whatever we want, no need to be embarrassed."

Mrs. Hu waved her hands hurriedly, "No, no..."

Pangzi still smiled, "What Mingrui said is right. We are all family members. If you have anything to say in the future, just say it. There is no need to guess. Tell your mother what you want to eat tomorrow and she will cook it for you.

."

When Mrs. Hu listened to Pang's words, she always felt that there was something in her words, but when she looked at her with a smile, she couldn't say the words that came to her lips. In the end, she just said: "Thank you, mother!"

The smile on Pang's face became brighter, "Minggrui, I'm going to study at Mr. Xu's place tomorrow. I heard from Erhu that Mr. Xu is very strict and many students who live far away don't go home at night. I

Although the villa we live in is not far from the village, it still takes a lot of time to walk back and forth every day..."

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Hu's face became ugly. She just thought Pang was blaming her for not worrying too much and wanted to separate her from Mingrui and leave her alone at her husband's house. He didn't just do whatever he wanted.

Already?
