Chapter 383: Sheep Soup
Tian's face was not very good-looking. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info She stood next to the car and asked, "What are you doing here?" I didn't greet Mrs. Xia, and I don't know who I was asking in this sentence.
"Ah......" Mrs. Xia has always been very polite to Tian, and it can even be said that she always lets Tian score three points. In front of her, Tian was already rude like this. But Old Lady Xia didn't seem to mind at all, she had a smile on her face, as if she wanted to answer Tian's words. However, after glancing at Xia Zhi, Mrs. Xia did not speak in the end.
Mrs. Xia didn't speak, and took Little Black Fish, Layue and Chen Xing'er to sit in the car.
"We're in town for something." Xia Zhi replied to Tian. She answered very simply, but she didn't ask how Tian, the eldest girl, and the second girl came out, and what they wanted to do.
Tian pursed his lips: "Why don't you tell me when you go to town?" Maybe I'm in trouble, one or two, don't treat me as a human being, what's the matter......"
Tian hadn't spoken to Xia Zhi like that for a while.
The summer solstice immediately understood. This is because Mrs. Xia was present, and Tian took advantage of the topic to play, and these words were mainly said to Mrs. Xia. Mrs. Xia is easy to talk to, and Tian is actually very good at bullying the soft and afraid of the hard.
"We're down to town for business. Mother, if you have something, just talk about it, don't be okay. My milk is here. "The summer solstice is to let the Tian family not play crookedly.
"Hey......" Tian raised his eyebrows, "Why are you talking to me on the summer solstice?" Someone has your back? I'm your mother. ”
The little black fish endured it in the car, and it couldn't help it anyway. He jumped out of the car and pointed at Tian to scold. Mrs. Xia hurriedly got out of the car and pulled the little black fish behind her.
Tian's face showed a smug look. She felt that she had a firm grip on Old Lady Xia.
"Eldest daughter-in-law," Mrs. Xia said gently, "I asked Sixteen to accompany me to the town." Aren't you happy? ”
Tian was stunned for a moment. Mrs. Xia has always avoided her, and she hardly said a whole sentence in front of her, let alone took out her mother-in-law's money to control and distribute her. She has always thought that Mrs. Xia is a soft persimmon.
But now that Mrs. Xia came out and said these two words, Tian suddenly felt uncertain in his heart.
"Ah...... I ......" Tian opened his mouth. If it was Old Man Xia in front of her, she dared to say that she was unwilling, and then quarreled with Old Man Xia. But in front of her was Mrs. Xia.
Do you really want to tear your face with Mrs. Xia?
Tian had always thought it was completely indifferent to her. But when it did, she didn't think so. Looking at the calm and quiet Mrs. Xia, Tian suddenly understood one thing.
Mrs. Xia has never been a weak person. Mrs. Xia's performance in the past few years was by no means a sign of weakness.
Tian was silent, and Mrs. Xia didn't ask. "Eldest daughter-in-law, if you're okay, then let's go first. You need to take care of this house. ”
Tian still didn't respond.
Mrs. Xia didn't care, and only greeted Xia to the car.
Xia Zhi agreed, happily got in the car and sat down. Xia Qiao waved his whip and drove the carriage out of the village. Walking to the corner of the village, Xia Zhi deliberately lifted the curtain and looked back.
Tian was still standing at the door with the eldest girl and the second girl, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Old Mrs. Xia sighed, and she asked Xia Zhi, "...... Make sheep soup, you also hired Lanzi and Qian Nier, you didn't tell you about this~ Mother. ”
"I didn't tell her." Summer solstice tells the truth. She and Tian can't talk about going together, and Tian won't support her, so what to do, Xia Zhi generally doesn't discuss with Tian.
"I guess I'm touching you~ My mother should know." Mrs. Xia said, "Sixteen, you see that the eldest girl and the second girl are idle at home, otherwise, you can hire two more people." You make less money, and the eldest and second girls are also pitiful. ”
From the beginning of the idea of hiring people, Xia Zhi never thought about the eldest girl and the second girl. Now that Mrs. Xia brought up this matter, Xia Zhi thought about it very seriously.
To be honest, she really doesn't like the eldest girl and the second girl very much. But then again, what she can do for the eldest and second girl, she has also done.
As for hiring people...... "I really didn't think of them. I thought about it, and I don't think they're very suitable. ”
Xia Zhi didn't beat around the bush with Mrs. Xia, so he told his true thoughts.
Mrs. Xia sighed, and said in her heart that the eldest girl and the second girl were indeed not as rare as the other little girls. I don't know why, there is always something depressing in the two girls, the eldest girl and the second girl, and the two little girls can do it, but it's just not pleasing.
"Sixteen," Mrs. Xia and Xia Zhi were also heart-to-heart, "You see that you are willing to help anyone, and our big guys have borrowed your light." You don't want both the eldest and the second girl, you want one. I guess you~ mother should be unhappy because of this. ”
Tian has always complained, and recently told Xia Zhiming that he felt that Xia Zhi was unwilling to help her mother's family.
"Milk, aren't we good enough for my second aunt's family. I've got Sister Channier for this. Xia Zhi said with a smile.
Mrs. Xia also smiled: "In the eyes of you~ mother, Qian Nier should be different from the eldest girl and the second girl." ”
If Xia Zhi hired the eldest girl and the second girl instead of Qian Nier this time, the Tian family should have no complaints.
"I can't tell what's different." Xia Zhi understood in his heart, but on the surface, he had to pretend to be confused, "Anyway, I think that whether it is myself or our family, we are all worthy of the Lao Tian family of Tun'er, and we are completely worthy of the eldest sister and the second sister." Milk, this really has to satisfy my mother, then I won't live. ”
"Sixteen will hire whoever you like." The little black fish immediately stood on the side of the summer solstice, "I'll go back to her, I'll see if she has that face." ”
"Say less!" Mrs. Xia counted the little black fish.
The little black fish snorted, turned around and leaned towards Xia Zhi's side, ignoring Mrs. Xia.
Mrs. Xia can't do anything about this little son. Moreover, what Xia Zhi said also makes sense, if you really want to always look at Tian's face and make Tian satisfied, then no matter what Xia Zhi does, he has to take every step of the way.
"Sixteen, or you're thinking about it, it's ...... family to live" Mrs. Xia still persuaded Xia Zhi again, but it was just to hire the eldest girl and the second girl, and give up a few more money.
"Milk, I know what you mean. Well, I don't think it's okay for me to do that. My mother is angry, and she will be fine in two days. Always angry, she can't keep busy. ”
The little black fish laughed heartily. Layue and Chen Xing'er also laughed in a low voice next to them.
Mrs. Xia glanced at Xia Zhi, and she realized again that Xia Zhi and her were two people with completely different personalities. Perhaps, it has to be the temperament and deeds of Xia Zhi ~ in order to subdue the Tian family.
Thinking back to what has happened in the family in the past few months, it is also thanks to Xia Zhi who is strong enough and not so timid, so the Xia family has changed so much.
Thinking so, Mrs. Xia didn't persuade Xia Zhi. However, she still said to Xia Zhi: "Don't always follow you~ mother." If there is something inconvenient for you to say something, you will push it on me and you~ master. ”
This is what it means to maintain the summer solstice and support the umbrella for the summer solstice. Old Man Xia had actually started doing this a long time ago, and Old Lady Xia had been secretly maintaining the summer solstice. And today, in front of the Tian family, Mrs. Xia is the first time to face the Tian family and maintain the summer solstice.
Over the years, Mrs. Xia has never scolded the Tian family because of herself, or for Uncle Xia San or Little Black Fish.
How rare.
"Milk, I see. If there is anything in the future that I can't refuse my mother, I will push my grandfather. Xia Zhi said with a smile.
Everyone in the carriage laughed.
When they got to the town, they went straight to the market. Old Man Xia and the others were working in full swing, and Uncle Xia had already built the big stove.
Since they set up a stall in Linshui Town, it was the first time that Mrs. Xia came. "Such a large area, all of which belong to our family?" Mrs. Xia asked Xia Solstice.
Second Uncle Xia's stall and Third Uncle Xia's stall are connected together, and it is indeed a place that is not small.
"Both." Xia Zhi smiled and nodded, and then pointed out to Mrs. Xia where the stall for mutton soup was to be placed. There is no need to stand another stall for the sheep soup, and it will be placed in the middle of the stall of Second Uncle Xia and Third Uncle Xia at that time.
"When the time comes, the banner will be placed here, side by side with the banner of the french fries......" Xia Zhi said all his thoughts.
Naturally, everyone has no opinions.
After they looked at it for a while, Old Man Xia put down the work in his hand and came over: "Let's go back if we look at it, it's cold and cold in winter, and the soil is still alive here...... You can't help here......"
"Master, we'll go back after we buy our things in a while. My brother is following us today. "The summer solstice said.
"Okay."
Xia Zhi went to see the stove of Xia Sanshu's base again. "Third uncle, how big is this?"
"The biggest, you just tell the pot seller the biggest." Uncle Xia San kept in his hands and replied to Xia Solstice with a smile.
"Okay." Summer Solstice nodded.
I accompanied Mrs. Xia to see it at the stall, and then they took the car to Linshui Town Street. Xia Zhi discussed with Mrs. Xia, they also need to buy some additional tables and benches, and they also have to buy some coarse porcelain bowls...... In this way, it also requires some capital.
“…… Let's buy the biggest pot, and let's buy the sturdiest kind of bowl......"
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Xia went out, and she was in a very good mood.
Although there are a lot of things to buy today, it is rare for Mrs. Xia to come out, and Xia Zhi naturally led her to visit some of the big shops in the street near the water.
Mrs. Xia was happy, and Layue and Chen Xing'er also felt that they were here today, the two little girls were chattering, and they were also working with Mrs. Xia to help Xia Zhi come up with ideas.
"Fourth sister, then I'll also come up to the stall to help, okay?" Chen Xing'er also discussed with Xia Zhi.
"Your aunt and your uncle will definitely not agree." The summer solstice said.
"I told my aunt and my uncle. Then I'm not a daughter, and I'm not a guest. I don't want to be paid, I'm happy to help. "Chen Xing'er is almost announcing the summer solstice.
Xia Zhi smiled: "You told your aunt and your uncle, I must be fine." You come to help, whether it's your aunt's or my job, you have a salary. ”
"Yes, yes." Layue applauded Chen Xing'er first. The two little girls exchanged heads and discussed how to convince Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia San.
Xia Zhi bought enough spices, looked at the pots and bowls, and after paying the money, she let the work in the store be moved to the market, and then she went to the grain store to buy wheat noodles.
Mrs. Xia was puzzled: "Our noodles are enough to eat, why do you buy these wheat noodles at sixteen?" ”
"Milk, we can't just sell sheep soup." Sheep soup was drunk to warm up, but it was not full. But if there are guests who want to be full, they have to take this need into account.
The so-called goods are not all profitable, and the meaning of the summer solstice is to sell cakes at that time. The cake is mutton soup, which warms the body and can be eaten.
“…… Those who have money want to eat fine, people must go to the restaurant to eat. When we come here, we shouldn't be so particular, we don't make fine white noodles for this cake, let's make coarse wheat noodles, and then get some cheaper Sanhe noodles, milk, how delicious the cakes you bake, they must be better than what others sell......"
Xia Zhi also told Mrs. Xia that in fact, every time she went to the market, there were old ladies and daughters-in-law who came out with baskets to sell steamed buns and cakes, all of which were home-branded and steamed, and sold them in the market to add some pocket money to the family.
"We can also boil two eggs and sell ......" Xia Zhi said more and more, the more ideas he had. There are still some cheap black tea bricks at home, and it is not bad to boil a pot of tea eggs to sell when the time comes.
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Xia smiled and nodded, "We still have a lot of pickles at home, and we will cut some of them when the time comes, don't sell them for money, give them to the big guy for nothing, and add a salt crystal ......."
"My milk has a good idea." Xia Zhi immediately laughed and cheered.
The grandparents and grandchildren were happy to shop, chatted happily, and finally returned to the market. Old man Xia, their work has also reached the end stage. Old Man Xia meant that he asked Mrs. Xia to lead the Xia Solstice and them back first, prepare the meal, and they could eat when they went home.
"Stir-fry more vegetables." Old man Xia loudly instructed that Qian Dalang and Qian Erlang both came to help today, and the two brothers worked very well~ Really, Old Man Xia was happy.
"Hey." Mrs. Xia happily agreed.
Then, Old Man Xia saw the noodle bag in the car.
"What are you buying, why are you still buying wheat noodles?"
"Sixteen bought." Mrs. Xia told Mr. Xia about selling pancakes for Xia Zhi.
Old man Xia said in his heart that he knew that Xia Zhi could Zhang Luo, and he did not object: "The restaurants where people sell mutton soup have cakes." When he saw Mrs. Xia and Xia Zhi get into the car, he remembered another thing.
"It's true. If the eldest daughter-in-law wants to go back to her parents' house or something, it's up to her. ”
