Shen Bi's words were like the finishing touch, which made everyone who was still confused have an epiphany.

Pretending to be pregnant, such an exciting thing.

For a while, even the youngest aunt held her cousin and poked her head out into the kitchen.

"What? Chicken blood? Didn't have a miscarriage? My grandmother hadn't turned around yet, and was laughing, "If it weren't for human blood, would my eldest grandson be fine, okay?" ”

"Old woman!" My grandfather shouted angrily, "What a big grandson, where is the big grandson!" ”

My grandmother was stunned.

Seeing this, my aunt quickly took her arm, leaned into her ear and muttered for a while.

I stood aside and could clearly see my grandmother's face change from pale to iron-blue, from iron-blue to purple, from purple to completely black.

"You slut!" A moment later, my grandmother roared, picked up the rolling pin from the ground that had just hit me, and landed at Widow Zhang.

My dad was startled and called out to my grandmother as he tried to block the rolling pin with his arm.

But my grandmother will be like taking a strong pill, the stick does not fail, and it is full of strength.

Gradually, my dad couldn't bear it anymore, and his arm was slow, so my grandmother sturdily pumped several sticks on Widow Zhang.

At first, Widow Zhang wanted to pretend to be weak and wanted to hold on, but the rolling pin was as thick as a seven-year-old child's arm, and who knew how much it hurt to hit her body.

So soon, Widow Zhang couldn't hold it anymore, got up from the ground neatly, screamed and hid behind my father.

This time, it can be regarded as just verifying my previous reasoning and speculation.

My grandmother's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and my grandfather closed his eyes angrily, not stopping my grandmother at all, allowing my grandmother to whip Widow Zhang and my father with a stick.

"Mom, Zhang Min can't help himself, it's all my idea, if you want to beat me, kill me." My dad was desperately protecting Widow Zhang and shouted loudly.

My grandmother felt sorry for her son, and she was tired after a while, panting and saying, "My good eldest grandson is just gone, and she still did this kind of thing to lie to me, is she taking me for a fool?" Do you take this group of people for fools? ”

"Mom, Zhang Min didn't have a miscarriage, and her body wasn't damaged, isn't it a matter of time before your grandson, why are you in a hurry, if you break her again, the gains outweigh the losses."

My dad is worthy of being my grandmother's own son, and he knows where my grandma's life is, so he quickly calmed my grandma down.

Shen Bi let go of Zhang Qiongyu, leaned into my ear, and whispered, "He has never protected our mother like this." ”

I glanced at my dad and sneered twice.

The things that should be revealed have been revealed, and I don't want to participate in the future, so I took Shen Bi's hand and was about to squeeze out of the kitchen.

When my grandfather heard the movement, he looked back at me with a complicated expression, "Little girl, it was grandpa's mistake just now......

I waved my hand and walked away without looking back.

Widow Zhang can be regarded as stealing chickens and rice this time, and her status that has increased dramatically because of her "eldest grandson" will plummet to an unimaginable position with this lie.

Even with Zhang Qiongyu, I have to suffer my grandmother's face.

But so what.

My father is willing to protect her and Zhang Qiongyu, and their lives will still be very nourishing.

At most, a little ridicule for it.

But it doesn't really change their lives.

And I, however, received more than a dozen sticks from my grandmother, and I also delayed most of the day's study, and no matter how I thought about it, it was worth the loss.

When I got home, I didn't tell my mom about it.

The days went on, and I didn't want to add too much distress to her.

People like my mother are destined to not withstand the wind and rain.

Luckily, I was able to hold up a clear sky for her.

Because I didn't eat anything at my dad's place at noon, I went to buy some side dishes in the evening, including my favorite pig intestine, Shen Bi's favorite pig's feet, and my mother's duck head.

I spent about 20 yuan in bits and pieces, which made my mother feel distressed.

But when I gave her the new laundry, she wiped her tears from her eyes with joy.

"I haven't worn a new dress in years, do I look good? Alas, isn't there a bit of fat on the waist. "My mom was as happy as a child.

Shen Bi and I sat on our chairs and laughed.

After a while, Shen Bi also changed into her new clothes, and the two of them held hands and laughed there, and the whole room was overflowing with happiness.

It was a joy I hadn't seen in a long time.

Seeing this, I secretly told myself that I was going to make money, to make more money.

Give mom and sister a better life and make them happier.

The next day, I started to figure out how to improve the ice porridge.

To be exact, it is an evolutionary version of making ice porridge - in the 90s, although the people were generally poor, the rich were still not to be underestimated.

And our ice porridge, the price of a bowl of five cents, is the kind of very ordinary families can afford, it is considered grassroots food, which is a small profit but quick turnover, and it earns a reputation.

If you really want to make money, you still have to go higher - not only the variety must be rich, the ingredients must be changed, and the model must also be changed.

Moreover, I think a little more far-reaching, in this era, all kinds of milk tea desserts have not yet risen, and they have to wait for two thousand years to come from Taiwan.

Just do it!

The next day, after a little review of my homework, I went to the vegetable market and bought some tapioca flour and glutinous rice flour, and some pumpkin, sweet potato, brown sugar, and so on.

Purple potatoes have not been introduced at this time, they are a rare thing, and I can't find them, so I gave up.

First, the pumpkin and sweet potatoes are steamed, the brown sugar is boiled, then tapioca starch is added and kneaded into a ball, and then divided into small balls, which are slightly dried and boiled for more than ten minutes, and then stuffed for a while, taro balls and small pearls are made.

To test people's acceptance of these things, I first asked my mother to scoop some ice porridge into it, and if anyone didn't want it, I didn't force it.

After two days, many people fell in love with these chewy little things, and when they bought ice porridge, they deliberately asked my mother to put a little bit of it.

My heart sank and I began to study milk tea.

The basic milk tea is to boil the tea and then brew the milk into it, and if it is a little more complicated, boil some caramel, and then brew the milk tea.

Considering the acceptance of the people, I didn't make a lot of milk tea flavors, but only made one original caramel flavor, which was paired with brown sugar pearls or honey red beans.

Because of the hot weather, I also thoughtfully put some ice cubes in the milk tea.

As I expected, milk tea is booming again, and it is even more popular than ice porridge, after all, some people just want to drink when they are hot, and they don't want to eat.

Since our stall is near two schools, it is mainly students who buy things.

Unexpectedly, after school, buying a cup of milk tea for five cents and chewing it for a while has become a popular thing among students.

Several times, I inadvertently saw Zhang Qiongyu hiding in a small alley to look here, I only thought that she had come up with something moth, and I was wary of her, but I didn't take the initiative to deal with her.

Zhang Qiongyu didn't know each other either, but she just listened to Shen Bi, she often unites other classmates to isolate Shen Bi in her class, intentionally or unintentionally, and it is said that she still speaks ill of Shen Bi behind her back.

Fortunately, Shen Bi is a big-hearted person and never cares about these.

Our mothers are now smiling from ear to ear every day because of the heat of milk tea, and we don't have time to worry about these at all, you know, making milk tea is also a busy job.

In this way, the days passed day by day, and the hottest weather gradually came, and Shen Bi and I both reached the time of the final review and sprint.

I'm okay, the first year of high school and the second year of high school, but it's just a matter of dividing into classes, as long as the stable grades are in the middle and upper reaches.

Shen Bi is more dangerous, her grades are average, and if she wants to get into a good high school, she has to study hard.

So these days, I am selling milk tea while tutoring Shen Bi.

One day, I was teaching Shen Bi to do homework, and the light in front of me was suddenly blocked.

I thought it was someone who came to buy milk tea, so I waved my hand and said, "Milk tea is at my mother's." ”

The man didn't move.

I jerked my head up to see my dad's wriggling lips and the look on his face.

"Dad." I greeted him politely, "Why are you here?" ”

The implication is actually this: After what happened last time, how can you still have a face?

My dad blushed, lowered his head, and said in a smug voice, "I'...... I'll take a look at some of you. ”

"Thank you dad for your concern, we're doing well." I don't say anything salty.

"That's good." My dad exhaled, his eyes rolled on my face, and finally fell on the milk tea in my mother's hand, "I heard that your milk tea has been selling well recently......

When I heard this, my heart suddenly became vigilant, "Yes, this thing was carefully researched by me and my mother, and like ice porridge, it can't be imitated by others." ”

"Ah, yes......" My dad didn't hear my wariness of him, smiled, and said a little slurred, "These days, Qiongyu has been talking to me, saying that the taste of milk tea is rare for yours, and he said that he wants to taste it." ”

"Oh, that's what happened." After making sure that my dad didn't covet the recipe, I relaxed, "I want to drink milk tea and let her come and buy it, although I don't deal with her, but we treat all guests equally." ”

It turned out that Zhang Qiongyu wanted to drink our milk tea, but she was too embarrassed to come and buy it, so she moved my dad over.

But did she think that would be her wish?

It's ridiculous!

"Xiao Jiang!" My dad's face was a little embarrassed, "In the past few days, my dad hasn't paid his salary, and the money is ...... It's almost spent, so I don't have any money to give Qiong Yu ......."

"If you don't have money, then you won't drink." I spread my hands and said unceremoniously.

"You ......" My dad saw that I looked stubborn, and his face turned blue with anger, "Xiao Jiang, do you have to let me say it so clearly, you and Qiongyu are sisters, she is embarrassed to come over and ask for a cup of milk tea, you are a sister, take the initiative to give her a cup?" Why are you so stingy?! ”
