Chapter 16: The Arrival of Fang's Father and Fang's Mother (1)

The child has slid like flowing water for another half a month, and since Fang Monan took control of the kitchen, grandma's food has changed greatly. After a week, every day is not the same, and my aunt touches her stomach and screams every day.

Mr. Lin, under their kind invitation, did not go to the cafeteria to eat, and said that this was the best meal he had ever eaten, but he had to pay for food or death, and finally discussed, Mr. Lin paid five yuan a month for food.

However, Fang Monan didn't dare to make too out-of-the-ordinary meals, because the standard of living here was there, and it didn't meet the standards in the space, and there were many varieties and complete types in the space, and some of the southern products such as sea fish and crabs made them not appear, so as not to show their feet.

But despite this, the production of the space kitchen still allows Fang Monan and them to eat as much as they want. So every day, although it is a home-cooked dish, it adds a lot of color to the dinner table.

Grandma made money selling steamed buns, and from time to time she went to the vegetable market to buy some, and the vegetable basket was always full, such as big bones, boiling soup and drinking, not only to replenish her body, but also to cover Fang Monan. In the end, grandma simply bought a few hens to keep at home, anyway, the yard is big, so it is enough to eat eggs, and no one comes to check how many eggs the chickens lay every day.

The level of food has gone up, the quality of life has improved significantly, Fang Monan's face has become more round and cute, and the aunt's complexion is also obviously ruddy and healthy.

On this day, Fang Monan made a large table of dishes, and just waited for them to bring them out of the space.

It's close to October, the late autumn evening is cool, it's still a little cold, the sky is getting dark, grandma and they haven't yet, usually this is home early. Fang Monan climbed over the threshold, and before he could get down the stone stairs, he heard his grandmother's voice coming, sounding very excited and excited.

"Mom, it's okay now, I'm still worried that the weather is getting colder and colder, and the steamed bun stall is frozen outside, so we don't have to work hard to suffer from the cold." The aunt rubbed her hands happily. "The stall is placed in front of our house, this Yamen Street, and idle people don't dare to come."

Grandma and they left, and when they saw her standing outside, they felt distressed Dao Nannan, it was cold, wait outside" As she spoke, Grandma carried her into the house.

"Well, you're so happy." Fang Monan looked at the two people behind him and asked.

"Xiao Nannan, do you think this is?" The aunt happily held up the 10 yuan unity and shook it in front of her eyes.

"Oh, thing, so happy, tell me about it." Fang Monan asked calmly.

"It's a deposit." The aunt said succinctly.

They went into the house and sat down together, and learned from the mouth of the aunt that this evening, the principal of the county high school found the grandmother, and they entered the principal's office with some trepidation. It turned out that the high school ordered 240 steamed buns a day from them. 100 in the morning, 40 in the middle, 100 in the evening, and three meals before the start of the meal to the high school cafeteria, but the price is four dime, without food stamps. Just like my aunt said, is it cost-effective and capable? Think about the county high school, which integrates junior high school and high school, with nearly 1,000 students, and half of them are resident students

As the saying goes, the half-grown boy eats the old man, judging from these days, they are selling faster and faster, and sometimes people who have been waiting in line for a long time can't sell it, there is no way, just rely on grandma alone, and the amount will definitely not go up.

When the business came to the door, grandma and they couldn't take care of eating, so they discussed, "However, with such a large amount, can grandma do it alone?" Fang Mo Nan said.

"It's okay, on the way, we discussed, there are many women sitting at home in this neighborhood, ask them to help, just pay back the wages, can subsidize the family, it is estimated that someone will do it." Auntie said excitedly. "I calculate that I will send 240 steamed buns to the school a day, and if we set up a stall at the door of our house, more than 100 steamed buns, if the cost is conservatively estimated, I can earn 200 yuan a month" The aunt sneered, and both eyes were RMB.

Fang Monan nodded, more than my aunt calculated, "But let's improve the production method, I can't eat it if I rely on manpower so much." "No one's hands can stand the long and heavy kneading of the dough, which has to be considered a little later.

"Also, you told the principal that we are running a small business, and we don't take credit, and it's best to settle the bill every day." Fang Mo South Road.

"Hah...... Ha, I'm just, our girl, and I have this business talent. Old Man Lin said happily, "Your grandmother and your aunt are happy to be patronized." ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Lin" Fang Monan smiled and thanked them, it is estimated that Grandpa Lin helped them a lot when they were talking.

"No, that old boy, I promised to settle the bill a day." Old Man Lin joked and said, "If he dares to pay his debts, I will shave his baby beard." ”

"By the way, did you sign the contract? Signed for a few years. Fang Monan asked again, looking at her grandmother and aunt with a blank face, she looked at Old Man Lin.

"I signed it for three years temporarily." Old man Lin said, this girl is really not simple, the more I come into contact, the more interesting I feel about life, and there are new surprises waiting for him every day.

"By the way, grandma, is our flour enough? Is there enough coal? Is there such a big pot? Is it necessary to re-plate the stove? Let's start sending. Fang Monan slipped out of a bunch of questions.

"Tsk...... Big sister, your granddaughter, you are really thoughtful. Old Man Lin glanced at her and said.

"Oh, I'm so excited, I've forgotten everything." Grandma looked down and thought, "There is not much coal, and the steaming pot has to be bought again, and the stove has to be re-plated." Fortunately, it was Sunday, most of the students went home, and we just steamed the usual amount, and on Monday, we still steamed the usual amount, and the number went up two days later. She counted her hands. In the future, we won't go to the school gate to set up a stall, I see that the stall is placed at our door, and now we all know us, and this location is good. She thought about it.

This is good, Chinese have never been short of people who follow the trend, incapable followers, in this era of grain rationing, buying high-priced grain will obviously not be cost-effective, capable will disdain to do individuals. Fang Menan and the others have a unique advantage, and now they have a high school order, even if there are followers, their business will not be affected in any way.

Fang Monan thought about it and said that in the future, you can also steam steamed buns, fill soup dumplings, steam flower rolls, and steam sugar buns. The pattern is constantly renovated, so as not to worry about retaining guests. ”

"Mm-hmm" Grandma nodded, "I'm not in a hurry now, I'm not rich yet, if the meat buns are estimated to be sold, the quantity will definitely not go up, I'm waiting." ”

Grandma's heated discussion here was still a little worse, and my aunt wrote them down on paper one by one.

***********************

"Mom, are you all here?" A crisp woman's voice came out of the courtyard outside the door.

When Grandma heard this, she immediately got up and went out, "Dayan, it's so late that it's dark, how unsafe it is on the road."

"Mom, it's okay, Zhengping is with me, it's going to be cold soon, we brought two truckloads of coal, as well as flour and rice, while someone else's car is going, so it's late." The mother said with a two-year-old child asleep in her hands.

Grandma took the child in her hand, and when she heard her say coal, her eyes lit up, and she really wanted to come. Walking into the house together, she went into the bedroom, put the child in her hand on the bed, covered the quilt, and came out again.

Fang Monan heard a familiar voice, and her mother Mo Yongyan came, people like to call her Dayan, maybe she was timid, she had already walked to the threshold, stopped, and saw a young man walking in through the light in the house. A dirty slag dress, a bean-green knitted sweater, a dark red cover, black pants, a pair of black leather shoes, and a smile on his eyebrows. It turned out that her mother was so beautiful when she was young, she pursed her lips, and she had to keep her mother beautiful, and she didn't want her to be bent by money.

"Mom" Fang Monan staggered across the threshold and pounced on her. 'Long time no see. It's been a long time. ’

"This kid still knows me." My mother picked her up excitedly, chubby, round and cute, dressed in an old thin cotton jacket and cotton pants, and an upside-down gown with washed white stripes. My heart was sour, "Nannan, Mom has brought you new clothes this time." ”

"Mom did it." Fang Menan stared at her and said, my mother taught herself to tailor, and when she was a child, her clothes, cloth shoes, and cotton shoes were all made by her own hands, until she was in elementary school.

"Well, I made it myself." The mother thought that the grandmother often nagged in the ears of the children, and she didn't think much about it.

"Thank you, Mom." Fang Monan kissed his mother and said.

"Mom, this kid." The mother looked at her grandmother suspiciously, looking at the matter, there were also people in their unit who threw the children at home to the elderly in the family for work, but when they looked at the children after a few months, the children didn't recognize anyone. It's like this child, with an attachment look.

"Dayan, don't ask yet, let's talk about it later, have you eaten? Zhengping hasn't come in yet. "Grandma, she has a lot of questions, but now is not the time.

"Oh, unloading coal? Estimated soon. ”

As he spoke, Dad came in with a cloth hanging from his shoulder and a bag of flour. "Mom, where do you put it?"

"Come with me and put it inside." Grandma kicked the small bench away, out of the way, and let him in.

"It's just the same, don't you skip words after unloading. Mom put down Fang Menan and asked.

"When the coal was unloaded, it was piled up at the gate. They also unloaded the flour at the gate, but I had to carry it inside. Dad said as he walked.

"Then let's go out and help," said Grandma.

"No, it's not much, I'll be done in four more trips, you guys can sit down" Dad unloaded the noodles into the storage room, and smiled at the other party, does Mo Nandao remember me? Little Nannan"

"Remember, Dad." Fang Monan said loudly, as if he had vented his emotions for so many years.

Dad seemed to have taken a stimulant, and went out to carry noodles with brisk steps.

Soon, five bags of noodles and one bag of rice were quickly moved. Grandma poured warm water for my father and asked him to wash up.

Fang Monan pulled his grandmother and the two of them to the kitchen and took out the prepared meals from the space. Sweet and sour fish, braised pork, hot and sour shredded potatoes, and yam pork rib soup.

"This is not enough to eat" Grandma looked at it, although the amount was enough, but she still felt that it was less.

"It's simple, grandma guards the door, I'll come when I go." After Fang Monan finished speaking, he flashed into the space, and soon, he was holding four plates of 'crab roe xiaolongbao' in his hand, "This must be full." ”

"So fast." Grandma thought it was in the blink of an eye, and it was over. "Xiaoyan has served the rice."

My aunt and grandmother brought dinner in and put it on the table.

They all sat down and introduced each other to Mr. Lin, and my father and mother were dumbfounded when they looked at the dishes on the table. "Our family's standard of living has become so good at this time." Mom looked at them suspiciously. "It's fish again, it's meat again. I can't eat it during the New Year. ”

"Da Yan and Zhengping don't ask, after eating, let's talk about it." Grandma spoke, everything was eaten first, and then talked.

"Well, I'm hungry." Auntie exclaimed happily.

"Grandma, Grandpa Lin, parents, and aunts eat." Fang Monan called around and picked up the xiaolongbao with chopsticks.

Dad and Mom put down their doubts and ate attentively, and from the speed at which they picked up the vegetables, they were obviously conquered by the food.

"This is not a real crab roe, right?" Lin Laozi carefully tasted the xiaolongbao in his mouth, he remembered that there were no good crabs in this place.

Fang Monan gave a thumbs up, "Grandpa Lin's mouth is really sharp, and there is a salted egg yolk inside. "This old man is also a foodie, a master who can eat.

My father and mother feel like it's been so long, and they seem to be about to become people from two worlds, and they can't understand it.

Everyone quickly solved the meal, Old Man Lin left, Auntie went to wash the dishes and chopsticks, clean up the table, Fang Monan and his parents arrived at the good night, and went to sleep, the days are still long, and I will talk about it later.

The three of them were left in the living room, and Grandma told them everything that had happened in those days.

The two mothers were dumbfounded, especially when her little sister went to school again, her daughter was so smart and capable. Is the world changing too fast, or are they falling behind?

"Okay, let's go to bed early, I'm tired of the day." Grandma clapped her hands and said. "There's a lot to do."

"Mom, the water for washing your feet is ready." Xiao Yan came in with a basin.

"Dayan, go get some water too, you wash your face and feet, go to sleep in the north room, these two children slept with me tonight." Grandma followed my aunt into the south bedroom and washed up.

My father and mother also washed and went into the house, hurried in a hurry, tired of the day, and slept in amazement and doubt.
