On the way back to Shenjia Village, Shen Yuyu held her money bag and counted the money she earned today over and over again.
A large vat of spicy cabbage sold for a total of 200 Wen. It cost 20 Wen to use 100 Chinese cabbages, and added 10 Wen to add peppers and other seasonings. The total cost was about 30 Wen. If you don’t count the transportation fee and Xingwang’s labor cost, then The net profit is 170 cents. If it is divided 50-50, then one person can get 85 cents.
This is not a small amount of money. You must know that in this era, hiring a young man to work for only five or six cents a day.
Thinking of this, Shen Yuyu divided the money into two parts and gave one part to Shen Xingwang.
"Brother Xingwang, today's net profit is 170 cents. Let's split it 50-50, 85 cents each."
"Sister Yu Yu, you can't do this. This is your hard-earned money. Keep it quickly." Shen Xingwang refused to take it no matter what. He even parked the ox cart on the side of the road and forced the money back to him. This is Shen Yu.
Shen Yuyu knew that he was stubborn and would definitely not want it, so he decided to leave the job of pickling spicy cabbage to Aunt Zhou, so that she could concentrate on sales.
Retailing is only a temporary need. You must sign a fixed contract with a restaurant to make it long-term and make money quickly.
It's already early winter. We need to save money as soon as possible to build surgical instruments and heal Ji Xun's leg as soon as possible.
Shen Yuyu made up her mind and stopped forcing Shen Xingwang to collect money. This small amount of money was nothing, as they would make big money together in the future.
The sun had already set when we returned to Shenjia Village. As soon as we entered the village, we heard the melodious sound of the piano.
"Who is playing the piano there?" Shen Yuyu was very surprised. Rural people don't have this kind of elegance.
Shen Xingwang smiled and said: "The newly moved Miss Ding plays the piano very well."
Shen Yue smiled and said nothing.
When they arrived at the door of Shen Xingwang's house, the bullock cart stopped. Aunt Zhou heard the bells on the cow's neck and ran out of the house. She was overjoyed when she saw that the big vat in the cart was empty.
"Here, all the spicy cabbage has been sold?" She had been worried for a day, worried that no one would appreciate such delicious spicy cabbage. Now she saw that it was sold out, and she was extremely happy.
"Auntie, we're all sold." Shen Yuyu jumped off the bullock cart and walked to Auntie Zhou with a smile.
"Today's net income is 170 Wen. I want to share it 50/50 and Brother Xingwang refuses. So let's do this, Auntie. I will leave the two tasks of buying Chinese cabbage and making spicy cabbage to Auntie and Brother Xingwang. After we make money, we can work together." point."
Shen Xingwang said hurriedly: "This is the secret recipe left by your mother. How can we share it with you? Let us do the work, and just pay us whatever we want."
"No, we'll share the share as promised." Shen Yuxi pouted, thinking that Aunt Zhou's family was too honest, and said, "We'll discuss the details tomorrow. It's too late, so Yuxi went back, that's right. , the earthenware jar is enlarged in my parents' house, it is very useful when making spicy cabbage.'
After saying that, he carried his baggage and hurried home.
When we arrived under the big locust tree, the sun had already set. There were many women washing vegetables at the entrance of the well, talking and laughing.
"Miss Ding plays the piano so well that even a country boy like me finds it pleasant."
"Isn't it? It's an honor to be able to hear the piano skills of such a lady. Some people will never have this opportunity in their lives."
"Hehe, the sound of the piano is so captivating. I just saw Ji Xun coming back from hunting, and I was fascinated by the sound of the piano."
"I'm afraid I'm not only fascinated by the sound of the piano, I'm afraid I'll also be fascinated by Miss Ding in a few days."
""Infatuated with Miss Ding? Pfft~~ With his lame and ugly appearance, a toad wants to eat swan meat."
…
All these words were heard by Shen Yuyu above the well, and her heart suddenly felt sour.
However, she quickly came to her senses and realized that she and Ji Xun were not really a couple. They had agreed to divorce after a year. If Ji Xun really liked another girl in advance, she would definitely make it happen.
When I got home, the sun had already set.
As soon as Shen Yuyu opened the courtyard door, Ji Feng rushed forward, holding Shen Yuyu's thighs with tears streaming down his face.
"Sister-in-law, why are you back so late? You've made Ah Feng very worried.'
Shen Yuyu took out a bunch of candied haws and gave it to Ji Feng and rubbed the melon seeds on Ji Feng's little head: "Afeng, don't worry, my sister-in-law went with Brother Xingwang, she's safe."
Ji Feng held the candied haws in his hand and pouted: "Ah Feng doesn't care. Next time, sister-in-law must take Ah Feng there and let Ah Feng protect you."
"Then Ah Feng has to practice hard so that he can take Ah Feng with him next time." Shen Yuyu said, holding Ji Feng's hand and walking into the main room.
"I came back a little late today." Hearing the sound, Ji Xun poked his head out of the kitchen, holding a spatula in his hand. He seemed to be cooking.
"Are you complaining that I came back late and didn't cook for you in time?" Shen Yue couldn't even figure out why he spoke so harshly.
Ji Xun's eyes darkened and he returned to the kitchen to continue cooking.
By the time Shen Yuyu had finished cleaning up and washed his hands, Ji Xun had already brought the dishes to the table, boiled cabbage.
It literally means water, boiled cabbage, and nothing else. You can imagine the taste.
In short, when Ji Feng saw the food being served, he showed no appetite.
Shen Yuyu and Ji Feng had the same feeling, they just felt that it was tasteless and they couldn't whet their appetite.
"Don't worry, Ah Feng. My sister-in-law has something good to cook for you." Shen Yuyu smiled at Ji Feng, then entered the room with a porcelain bowl. She also had several jars of spicy cabbage pickled there.
Use clean chopsticks to pick up half of the spicy cabbage covered in chili sauce, put it on a clean cutting board and cut it into sections, then put it in a bowl and serve it.
"A Feng, you try it, it's delicious." After greeting Ji Feng, Shen Yuyu looked at Ji Xun, and his tone couldn't help but become cold, "You should try it too, it tastes good."
"Okay." Ji Xun picked up a chopstick and tasted it. Then he couldn't hold it in anymore and ate more than Ji Feng. He was not a particularly spicy person!
During this meal, Ji Xun didn't touch the boiled cabbage at all, and ate all the spicy cabbage in the bowl.
After the meal, I boiled water to take a bath. The little guy Ji Feng was too tired from playing, so he fell asleep after taking a bath.
Whether it was because the weather was cold or because he was far away from the lake, Ji Xun stopped taking cold water for some time and kept boiling hot water every night.
After Ji Feng took a bath, he added cold water to the pot, added some firewood to the stove, and then the two of them sat on the tatami mats in the courtyard, staring at the stars in a daze.
Ji Xun was always dull, and Shen Yuyu didn't want to talk today for some reason. The two of them sat dryly like this for a long time, until the water was hot. Shen Yuyu went to take a bath.
After taking a shower, she went to take a look at her personal space, and after working in it for a while, she came out. Ji Xun was still sitting in the courtyard. There was a vague sound of a piano, and the music was floating, sometimes soft and sometimes passionate. It looks especially intoxicating in the dark night.
Shen Yuyu glanced at Ji Xun, silently returned to the room, closed the door, and went to bed.
