Chapter 11 Do not do without food
Chapter XI
The corn harvest is over, and it is close to dusk.
Grandma Xie looked at the mountain-high corn piled up by the wall, and she had a headache and didn't know what to do. Xie Yinan felt that the opportunity to use his ingenuity had come again. She said to Grandma Xie: "Grandma, we can divide some corn for our uncles and uncles to eat, and I will bring some to my grandfather's house tomorrow, and the rest will be dried in the sun, saved, ground and made into meat buns to eat." β
"Okay?" Grandma was more skeptical, because very few people in Laoao Village eat steamed buns.
"Okay, okay, we can't finish what we make, and we can sell it for money?"
Xie Yinan has always believed that the economic base determines the superstructure. Open source is the way to development, and there is no way to reduce expenditure. Grandma's labor force is still too small, and although she can't starve to death by farming alone, she basically has no hope of relying on this method to make the life of her grandparents and grandchildren better.
Therefore, selling cornbread is the first step that Xie Yinan took to make a fortune.
Xie Yinan saw her grandmother's serious thinking expression and understood that her grandmother was already tempted, very good, when the corn was dried and ground and the buns were made, grandma's confidence would definitely be greater, and she would not worry about making money when the time came.
"Grandma, shall we cook corn tonight?"
"Okay, Nannan is really diligent today, I'm tired, grandma will cook it for you now."
"Grandma cook more, the brothers of the Zhang family will come in a while, I will invite them to eat corn."
"Okay, grandma will listen to you."
Although Xie Yinan has been worried, but he is getting better and better with his grandmother, think about it, whose 4-year-old baby can understand human accidents like Xie Yinan, and even at a young age, he knows that he has to make money.
Grandma Xie's mood is also very complicated, on the one hand, she is pleased with her little granddaughter's sensibility, and on the other hand, she is annoyed by her incompetence. If Nannan hadn't followed her, everyone wouldn't dare to make up their minds in the future, but at least Nannan's mother could give Nannan a happy and carefree childhood, instead of being like now, when the days had just begun, Nannan would worry about her own labor.
This love, apology, and relief are intertwined with various feelings, and the five flavors are mixed. Grandma didn't dare to show it lightly, the little granddaughter's heart was too careful, so she might be worried about it again.
At that moment, grandma changed her mind and happily went to the kitchen to cook corn for Xie Yinan.
Xie Yinan himself turned out all the small bamboo baskets at home and began to fill them with corn, not too much, 8 in one basket. Ten miles and eight towns, whoever meets has to call Uncle Er, shout Aunt Er, Xie Yinan is not ready to send them all, he is ready to pick up some people who are indeed related to the old Xie family, and his father has helped in white affairs, and he often comes and goes to each family on weekdays to send a basket. The other people who can't hit the eight poles are estimated to be given away in vain, so why waste it?
Xie Yinan took out the basket with seven and just straightened up, the three brothers of the Zhang family came into the door sweating profusely, and were taken aback when they saw the piles of corn in the corner, and hurriedly asked, "Sister, what is this?" β
Xie Yinan knew from his previous life that Zhang Xiang was not a person who could calm down, although he didn't have much contact at that time, but three years in junior high school was enough for Xie Yinan to understand his personality. It seems that there is no big change in this life, and he is the first to ask, Zhang Xiang.
"Brother, this is corn, you can cook it directly, and you can also dry and grind it into flour to make steamed buns and eat it." Xie Yinan had his own careful thoughts, so he naturally answered patiently.
"Baozi, isn't that something sold in the city?" After the last round of confrontations, everyone must have seen that this one is also a veritable foodie.
Zhang was also impressed by the steamed buns, the reason is that he has only eaten them once in his life, or he has come back with a dead face. Of course, he himself will definitely not remember this, why remember it, don't you dislike it?
"Yes, we can also make steamed buns to eat, and we can sell them for money if we can't finish them." Xie Yinan didn't care about Zhang Ye's careful thoughts, she said to herself.
"Sister, you're so good, you can even make steamed buns." Zhang also said sincerely.
Xie Yinan would never tell them that he had only baked pizza and never made steamed buns. But she can make dumplings, and come to think of it, these two should be inseparable!
Sister of the Xie family, you are too naΓ―ve, these two things are really far apart, you think so beautifully, when you really do it, there are times when you cry.
"Brother, can you do me a favor?" Xie Yinan paused, and after seeing the three brothers nodding, he continued: "These corns are going to be sent to other uncles and uncles in the village, and I can't deliver them alone, can you help me deliver them together?" After the delivery, I will invite you to eat boiled corn. β
Just let people work without food, that's Yang Bailao, Xie Yinan is a good employer, but he can't do this kind of crazy thing.
"Sister, don't worry, just leave it to us, you can wait at home!"
Zhang Si is the boss, and as soon as he spoke, the two younger brothers below nodded in unison. These three brothers are different from brothers in other families, their relationship has always been very good, and there are very few small fights, let alone deliberate demolition, which is basically impossible to happen.
Whether it's internal or external, it's always been synchronized.
Xie Yinan felt a little guilty about employing child labor, but when he thought of his entire afternoon's work, this guilt evaporated before it could ferment. Sitting at home with peace of mind, watching the three brothers of the Zhang family run back and forth, and finally delivered the corn before the sun went down. I also came back with a lot of things, grandma looked at it, waved her big hand, left the three brothers to have dinner at home, and cleaned up these eggs and bacon that came back, and made a big table full of noodles.
Grandma Xie led the four children to just pick up the chopsticks and didn't eat two bites, Aunt Hua came to the door in a hurry to catch people, and when she entered the door, she saw that the three boys were holding a bowl to eat the fragrant food, and she was angry, and waved her hand to reward the slap, grandma hurriedly stopped, and said that the three brothers were happy to help others, and said that Aunt Hua'er's face changed from extreme anger to bliss.
"You still envy my family's Nannan sensible, look at your three boys, who is not sensible. You say, they helped me so much, and if I didn't invite them to a good meal, wouldn't it be my old woman's ignorance? β
"Nonsense, Nannan is still the most sensible, you see how beautiful this thing is, alas, heart and liver baby, why are you so rare?"
Aunt Hua stepped forward with an arrow, and she wanted to make Xie Yinan salivate, but her grandmother didn't follow, not that she couldn't get used to Aunt Hua'er's hugging and hugging movements, she just wanted to let her granddaughter have a peaceful tea and dinner.
"Don't look for me, Nannan is tired, you see your gust of wind, a gust of rain, the scared children can't eat well, you should stop it."
Grandma, what's the name of being crooked. Xie Yinan listened to the boss in his heart for a while, who said that the countrymen were vulgar, you see, this is a joke, and how many points does it lose to the people in the city?
"I'm just rare of this kid, it's too attractive."
"Come on, you're here, follow the children's light, eat two mouthfuls of food and then leave."
"Cheng, thank you, auntie, this stinky boy has eaten it, and I don't bother to fire anymore."
Grandma brought a bowl of chopsticks for Aunt Hua'er, and filled a bowl of rice and a piece of corn for her, and said, "Try this freshly cooked corn, all of which I picked up Nannan." β
Grandma, don't you show off me?
"Yo, baby, you've done so much work alone, aren't you tired, come on, eat more, and make up for your strength."
This takes other people's incense and worships the Buddha of her own family, and Aunt Hua is also a strange person.
"Aunt Hua, you can eat it too." Xie Yinan looked at the hill that instantly piled up in his bowl, and hurriedly gave Aunt Hua a chopstick dish, just begging her to stop quickly and eat well.
When I turned my head to look, I saw that the other four people at the dinner table were also looking at me without eating, and my eyes rolled and I understood. Another person sandwiched a chopstick dish, and finally they were all satisfied.
Xie Yinan wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead, and deeply felt that it was not good to be too popular, and it was impossible to eat a meal with peace of mind.
"His uncle hasn't come back yet?" Didn't Xiang Erwu say that Zhang Da was going to rush back today, and there was no one at this time, so grandma brought it up and asked Aunt Hua.
"No, maybe it's something on the way." Seeing Grandma Xie's worried eyes, Aunt Hua'er's heart warmed, and she comforted her grandmother: "It's okay, who else can rob him as a big man." β
"Bah, bad spirits, good spirits. Don't talk nonsense, when you go out, the family is looking forward to him being better, how can you touch the top and bottom like this, the children's family, it's really not exquisite. Grandma didn't dare to say it deeply, that kind of thing had just happened to her family, one was afraid that others would be taboo, and the other was that she really didn't want to have any unfortunate things around her, no one could do it.
"Yes, yes, yes, seeing that I didn't open the door, don't say anything, auntie eat, eat."
Aunt Hua is really an understanding person, although Xie Yinan has been immersed in hard work, but she also listens to it. I am really fortunate to have three lives, not only do I have the opportunity to be reborn, but I also have the love of so many good people around me.
In this life, Xie Yinan must live to understand, live up to expectations, and stand out from the crowd.
After the meal, the brothers of the Zhang family did not forget what their duties were here, and began to teach Xie Yinan to read and write by the lights in the hall.
recognizes the textbooks in the preschool class of the second child, the second Chen wants to teach literacy, the eldest Zhang Silai teaches writing, and the third Zhang is also a special identity, he doesn't teach anything, he accompanies him, and he is Xie Yinan's scholar.
However, he is extremely happy to be a scholar, not only he is willing, but his mother is also quite happy.
Aunt Hua looked at the four little radish heads who were reading hard under the lamp, as if she had seen the future champion, and she couldn't close her mouth happily.
She is also more and more satisfied with Xie Yinan in her heart, and Aunt Hua can't say much, she only recognizes one truth in her heart, what kind of person you are with, what kind of person you are, what kind of person you will easily become.
Xie Yinan knew how to learn and be motivated at such a young age, so why worry about the future?
