Chapter 004 It would be great if the second master could come
Customers came one after another to eat wontons.
“Have a bowl of wontons!”
"Okay."
"I want two bowls of wontons, and put more of your scallion oil..."
It's not yet noon, and this wonton stall is already quite busy.
The small pot of wonton stuffing prepared by Su Yujin was sold out at the stall that opened at the beginning of Sishi and at the end of Weishi.
After closing the stall and going back, the master and servant closed the courtyard door and gathered together to count the money.
The unit price of a bowl of wontons is ten cents. Today, we sold more than seventy bowls, earning a total of seven hundred and forty cents, a net profit of more than four hundred cents.
"On this day, I can earn more than 400 yuan. On the 30th day of the month, I have to earn..."
Wormwood is not very good at arithmetic, so he counted on his fingers.
"You can earn twelve taels of silver a month!" Liu's mother answered with a smile on her face.
Amitabha, if you can earn twelve taels of silver a month, are you still worried about having a hard time?
"Mother Liu went to Qianji to buy a fairy chicken, and then came back with some braised vegetables."
They opened the business the day before and made a lot of money. They were also thinking that Liu's mother and Ai Cao were very tired today. Su Yujin was quite generous and said, "Buy some more minced meat cakes back. Ai Cao has a big appetite. Buy more for her."
The last one, Mama Liu, if you like to eat yuba, buy some more."
"Thank you girl."
Mother Liu took the money and went to Qianji happily.
Wormwood also put away the bowls and spoons with a smile on her face, and cooked the porridge for dinner on the stove.
While cooking, add a few pitted red dates.
The wonton stall business continues to operate because it makes money.
Su Yujin, Liu Mama and Ai Cao are busy every day, and this wonton stall is becoming increasingly lively because of its fair price, generous portion and good taste.
Some people have come from the east side of the county to this place in the west just to eat two bowls of wontons.
However, business is going well, and the daily net income of this wonton stall is around five or six hundred yuan.
The reason is that selling wontons is really strenuous work. The amount of labor is just right. If it were more, I would probably feel tired.
The money we have now is enough for food and clothing, and if we really want to achieve financial freedom, working hard at the wonton stall won't work. We have to think of other ways.
Su Yujin saw things thoroughly and was able to control this degree.
The days passed day by day, and by the time it was mid-April, when the weather was warm and a little bit hot, there was something new to eat at the wonton stall - fried noodles with soybean paste.
The chewy and refreshing noodles are boiled and poured into cold water, then topped with shredded freshly grown cucumbers, some cooked green beans, a spoonful of pork belly, eggs and stir-fried with soybean paste. It has a rich flavor.
Meat sauce, mix it yourself...
Each piece of noodle meat is covered with meat sauce. When you enter the mouth, you just feel the fragrance and the aftertaste.
Suddenly, the sales volume of wontons and noodles with soybean paste at this Su Kee stall was so high that it seemed to be evenly distributed.
By the end of April, excluding daily food and various expenses, Su Yujin's dowry had an extra ten taels of silver.
Touching the heavy silver, Su Yujin felt sad.
The record is good, but the road to wealth is long, so she still has to work harder.
Mother Liu and Ai Cao were washing dishes in the yard and chatting casually.
"It's already May now, and there's still no trace of the second master..." Mother Liu sighed.
"Yes." Ai Cao also sighed, his head drooping, but he soon became nervous again, "But now the girl is leading us to make money, and even the monthly income is a hundred cents more than before, Second Master
Whether you come or not, I don’t think it’s a big problem.”
"So you were expecting the second master to come, just because you were thinking about the second master coming to give money to the girl?" Mother Liu rolled her eyes at Ai Cao.
"What else?" Ai Cao was stunned.
Mother Liu reached out her hand and gave Ai Cao a chestnut in angrily manner, "You are really a silly girl. She used to work as a second-class maid. I think she was blind for nothing."
"Girl can make money now, but the three melons and two dates she earns are just enough for the girl and the two of us to eat, drink and wear clothes. The better girls with makeup and makeup are not willing to buy them. After all, our life is a bit poor. Take a step back.
For example, in the future, the girl will really make a lot of money, and her life will be better, but no matter how much money she makes, she will still be an outsider with no name and no status. If you go out and ask others, you won't be able to tell her the truth.
The scriptures tell you who you are.”
"If the second master never comes, the girl will have to live in this courtyard for the rest of her life, with no one to rely on, and when she gets old, she will have no one to care about her. Isn't this even more miserable?
"
"We still have to hope that the second master will come. Not only can he come, but he will come more often, so that the second master will miss our girl. In this way, when the second master gets married, he will take our girl back and give her a status.
"Only when the girl gives birth to a son and a half will she be completely dependent on her."
That makes some sense!
The mugwort chick nodded like it was pecking at rice, "Mother Liu said that we have to wait for the second master to come."
Su Yujin, "..."
During this period of time, Su Yujin had been busy selling wontons and noodles with soybean paste. When Su Yujin saw that Ai Cao and Mother Liu rarely mentioned the matter of the second master, they only thought that because they felt that their wallets were visibly bulging, they had already done it.
I no longer worry about whether the second master will come or not.
Unexpectedly, this is still on my mind.
And the obsession is deep.
But we can't blame the two of them. The natives of this era only think about issues from the perspective of this era.
The two of them were eagerly looking forward to He Yanxiu's arrival, but it was a sign of their sincerity towards her and their sincere intentions for her.
Combining the memory of the original owner and her personal experience, Su Yujin felt that Ai Cao and Mama Liu were indeed good people.
She is responsible, honest, does not violate any rules, does not do any cheating, is not stupid, and she feels quite comfortable using it.
If possible, Su Yujin plans to take the two of them with him when he leaves here and becomes free.
However, the contract of sale of these two people belongs to He Yanxiu.
His own deed of betrayal was also with He Yanxiu.
It would be great if the second master could come...
Su Yujin also had this idea in mind.

In May, pomegranate flowers bloom.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, the day gradually became a little hot.
The carriage moved forward slowly, and the person in the carriage suddenly sneezed loudly.
"Second Master, are you okay?" Xing'an, the young man, asked with concern through the curtain.
"It doesn't matter." He Yanxiu paused and said in a low voice, "Where have you been?"
"Back to Er Ye, we have arrived at Qinghe. It's half a day's journey to the capital. It's almost noon now. If we go further, there are only tea sheds and restaurants on the roadside. Er Ye, do you want to be there now?
Stop here and have something to eat?”
Qinghe.
He Yanxiu raised his eyebrows lightly, "Go and come back quickly."
The answer is that I don’t want to get off the bus and stay too long.
"Yes." Xing'an jumped off the carriage and went to look for something that could help He Yan repair his entrance.
He Yanxiu's taste can be said to be quite picky. He doesn't like greasy food, hates sweets, and doesn't eat spicy food.
Xing'an walked around and saw nothing close to his eyes until he saw a quite busy stall.
