Mrs. Wang followed Ning Laosan out of her mother-in-law's house, turned around and entered her yard. Only then did her tense body relax, and she let out a long breath.
"Youshou, I finally know that my mother was really merciful to us before!
Before, I thought that hitting my little sister was the biggest punishment, but I didn’t expect that this time she would be so ruthless to break her temper."
She patted her heart, it was too harsh!
After all, when Wang was at home, she was the only girl in the family, and she had been doted on since she was a child.
Not to mention hitting her, her parents didn't even touch her with a finger.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why is my mother so cruel to my little sister?
It's just a matter of letting her learn to cook in her own yard. If she, a girl, cannot even cook a meal when she gets married, she will lose the face of our Ning family.
Moreover, since she is in the yard, she is not cold or hungry, and she does not have to work in the fields. She just barely holds my little sister in the palm of her hand. How could she be cruel?"
Ning Laosan, however, doesn't feel that Ning Youxi is suffering at all. A life like this for little sister is like a fairy life, isn't it?
Mrs. Wang stared at Ning Laosan speechlessly, and finally rolled her eyes at him, turned around and entered the house.
At first, Ning Youxi tried her best to figure it out, but the wall was so high that she couldn't climb up even if she stepped on a stool.
Even if she climbed up the wall, she would not dare to jump down unless she wanted to break her leg.
Moreover, even if she climbs out of her own yard, what can she do?
If she was caught by her own mother, Ning Youxi felt a throbbing pain in her pussy when she thought of this possibility. She didn't want to be pressed on the stool and beaten again!
From trying everything possible to figure it out, to crying, and finally being so hungry that I had no choice but to do it myself.
Ning Youxi is not a fool. She has watched her sisters-in-law cook since she was a child. Even if she has not done it herself, she has watched it.
So, she followed the instructions and even though it didn't taste very good, at least the rice was cooked, even though it was a bit like porridge.
Ning Youxi wiped away her tears after taking one bite of the cooked rice, which was a little burnt and over-salted. She felt that she was really miserable.
After Ning Pengpeng locked Ning Youxi in her yard, she returned to her room and first touched the darkroom she made behind her room.
In fact, it is to create another room in the original room.
At the entrance, Ning Pengpeng blocked it with a wardrobe.
As long as you open the wardrobe and push the movable board on the back of the wardrobe, you can walk into the separated dark room.
In this darkroom, displayed are the money that Ning Pengpeng has saved these days, as well as the gold noodles and gold bracelets given by Shopkeeper Su.
What's more, the prepared white sugar that she had hidden before.
If you use this sugar at home, it will be enough for several years!
Calculating the money he still had available, Ning Pengpeng thought that if he wanted to open a shop in the town, he had to prepare supplies first.
Therefore, in the next few days, she had to ask the third child to take the fourth child to collect the eggs and duck eggs in the village and the surrounding villages.
In addition, I have to order several plates of tofu every day from the tofu grinder in the village.
Eggs and duck eggs are naturally used to make preserved eggs and salted eggs, and tofu is used to make fermented bean curd.
There are so many things to prepare. It is estimated that the soles of the third and fourth children’s feet will become swollen in the coming days!
As for the boss, let’s see if he comes to see me in the next few days!
If Ning Youfu doesn't come to him in the coming days until he has prepared the supply of goods, Ning Pengpeng plans to find someone else in the clan to help him manage the shop in town, and it doesn't necessarily have to be Ning Youfu.
However, Ning Youfu did not disappoint her and came to her door the next day.
"Mom, Mrs. Chen will move her family to the school in a few days. I was thinking, what mom said before about letting me help you manage the shop still counts?"
"Of course it's a calculation, but this shop belongs to me, not to any of your brothers.
Therefore, when you go to manage the store, you'd better sort out the monthly accounts and give them to me.
If I find something wrong, you don't have to stay any longer!
Disloyalty once, disloyalty a hundred times.
By then, whether your family is begging for food or getting rich, it will have nothing to do with me."
Hearing his mother's words, Ning Youfu was shocked. He subconsciously looked at Ning Pengpeng and saw her sitting there, looking at him coldly.
"Yes, mother, please don't worry. I have never made any mistakes in the accounts at my father-in-law's house for so many years, and I will definitely not make any mistakes at home."
"That's good. When the goods are ready, you take Ms. Liu to the shop. You guard the shop while she cooks and washes the clothes for you.
As for Cheng'er and Peng'er, they will stay here and go to school to learn how to read."
Ning Pengpeng saw Ning Youfu coming on the road, nodded with satisfaction, and then said.
"Cheng...Cheng'er can also learn to read and read? Master Chen, is he willing?"
After hearing Ning Pengpeng's words, Ning Youfu asked in surprise.
I feel sorry for my daughter. If she can recognize a few words, it is better than being blind so as not to be sold. It is naturally the best thing to help count the money!
But he also had his own concerns. After all, if Mr. Chen knew that he not only wanted to teach boys in the Ning family how to read and write, but also teach girls, he would probably feel uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, Ning Pengpeng shook his head and replied.
"I believe he will not refuse."
Master Chen's family arrived a few days earlier than Ning Youfu expected. As soon as they settled in, Ning Pengpeng came to see Master Chen.
"I wonder if Mrs. Ning is here to give me any advice?"
Chen Wenhe already knows that the most capable person in the Ning family is Mrs. Ning!
When it was time to move into a new house, although shopkeeper Su from Chunfeng Tower did not sit down to eat, the person who came to deliver congratulatory gifts in person was not a nodding acquaintance.
Therefore, Chen Wenhe was very polite when he saw Ning Pengpeng arriving.
"The old woman came here just to ask Mrs. Chen if Miss Chen can read and write?"
Hearing Ning Pengpeng's words, Chen Wenhe was stunned for a moment, then touched the beard on his chin and nodded in reply.
"Of course I know how to read. Huilan has been with me since she was a child. She can read at the age of three, and can memorize three hundred thousand by heart at the age of five!"
Speaking of this, Chen Wenhe couldn't help but show a hint of pride as a father.
It's a pity that Huilan is from a girl's family, otherwise, she would have been admitted to the Youth Scholarship Examination early, and her future would be promising.
"Ms. Chen is really smart as ice and snow, a real tiger father but no dog daughter.
However, Miss Chen must be very boring in this village now.
Therefore, the old woman was thinking, if Miss Chen is willing, would she be willing to become a school mistress and teach girls how to read?
Of course, I don’t expect them to take the No. 1 exam, as long as they can recognize their own names, settle accounts, and manage their families.”
