Chapter 166: Livelihood

"Why are you here today, don't you have to look at the store?" Grandma Lin took out a large number of door keys from her pocket, took a handful and opened the door. As soon as Grandpa Lin got home, he wanted to look at his fishing nets. I hurried into the house, changed my clothes, and went to get busy.

Lin Meiru followed into the house and wanted to pour herself a glass of water to eat, but the second child of the Lin family was not at home yesterday, so the water was naturally not hot. "Mom, this water is not hot, let's boil some water." Lin Meiru felt that she was a little uncomfortable today, and it was rare to go back to her mother's house, and her mother's general Tie guarded the door. I finally got into the house, but I couldn't drink any water if I wanted to.

"I see. I'll burn it. By the way, do you have anything to do when you come back today? "Since Lin Meiru got married, she has slowly become a person who comes to the door for nothing. Grandma Lin scooped some water from the water tank and washed the pot, and then scooped half of the pot of water again. Lin Meiru sat under the stove to help light the fire, and by the way, she also warmed up.

"Mom, it's not good for me to come back if I don't have anything?" Lin Mei lit the fire like a swift one.

"Of course it's good to come back, but every time you come back, there's always something wrong. Say, what is it for this time! "Grandma Lin often hit the nail on the head when she talks to her daughter. Quite faceless.

"Okay, Mom. You can help me ask Big Brother. I've heard that the edging machine in his shop needs to be replaced. You go tell me about it, and if it can be cheaper, I'll buy it." "Sure enough, I really didn't come to the door for anything!

However, Grandma Lin is not ready to meddle in this kind of matter. "You can talk to Zhihong about this matter yourself. It's what you want, not what I want. And when Lin Meiru and Sheng Aiguo opened a glass shop quietly, it has always been a thorn in Lin Zhihong's heart.

Not much else. When Lin Zhihong was a carpenter, he collected materials little by little to help Lin Meiru make a full set of dowry. As a result, in a blink of an eye, his sister didn't say hello, so he opened a glass shop, sang against his eldest brother's family, and grabbed a job. Now that you want something from your eldest brother's house, then you can say it yourself.

Lin Meiru also knew that her mother would not help her in this regard, but she never gave up. "Mom, Big Brother has listened to you since he was a child. Go and ask for me. It's always a bit embarrassing to ask me to ask myself. "It was a bit unethical to do that at the beginning, but the family always has to live. And his own store was not in the same area as Lin Zhihong's house.

"Both of you were born to me, and it's not good for me to help either of them. helped you, your eldest brother is going to be sad. If you help Zhihong, you have to be sad. So I don't help both. "Grandma Lin's attitude is also correct. A bowl of water is flat.

Lin Meiru was a little dissatisfied: "Mom, how about you help me ask." And a lot of meat for you! When Grandma Lin saw her like this, she stopped talking. After not being at home for a day, Grandma Lin swept the floor at home, and when the water was boiling after sweeping the floor, she poured all the hot water into the hot water bottle.

Before Lin Meiru left, she helped Grandma Lin fill the water tank with water. I went to the haystack behind the house and brought in a lot of firewood and grass. Until I left, I only said one sentence to Grandma Lin: "Mom, I'm going back." You and Daddy watch out for yourself at home. Don't be too bitter. ”

"Got it! Watch out on your own road. ”

Lin Meiru walked on the way back, the more she walked, the more sad she became, she couldn't hold back her tears, and she kept falling and falling. Business at Shengjia Glass Shop isn't particularly good these days. To be honest, Chinese like to follow the trend when doing business. When the business of one store is good, countless stores will follow.

At the beginning, the Sheng family's glass shop was the only one. But now there are more than four or five glass shops. If you pay ten yuan per square meter, then I only need nine yuan and eight yuan per square meter. The profit margins that were originally there were suddenly squeezed out a lot.

The most important point is that Sheng Aiguo is stupid and can't retain big customers. The Chinese do things, and there is nothing bad at the wine table. It's a pity that Sheng Aiguo can only drink two taels no matter how he drinks, and if he drinks too much, he will go crazy with alcohol. Invite someone to eat and drink until you get drunk, will you still be invited to eat and drink next time? Naturally, there is no need to think about it.

If the debts owed outside are not returned, the purchase needs money, and the family has to spend, Lin Meiru feels that this business is going to change, and there is no way to live. I just heard people say that Lin Zhihong's machine was going to be replaced, so I wanted my mother to come forward and eat the machine.

Lin Meiru has found someone to understand, although Lin Zhihong is talking about upgrading, but there are few such machines in the entire Zhangshi, and next, there must be business. It's not a unique business, but at least it's a relatively technical one. I'm sure I'll be able to pull my own business.

It's just that I didn't expect to go back to my parents' house this time, and my mother said that she wouldn't help herself. So the more Lin Meiru thought about it, the more she felt wronged. If you want to live and live, why can't you pull it? However, I had to go home after a cry. There are still young and old waiting for her at home.

But in the end, if Lin Mei didn't go to Lin Zhihong to talk about the machine, it is unknown.

has always said that time is like an arrow, and the days of not paying attention have passed. Lin Shuang and Qin Dou also had a holiday. Just in time for the best wave of business before the Chinese New Year.

Liu Xiaoying's sausage making is very popular with everyone. But this sausage is very fast to eat, but to make it, it will be troublesome. Liu Xiaoying can't be busy even if she has ten hands. In the end, someone thought of a way, prepared the ingredients by themselves, asked Xiaoying to help adjust the taste, and then poured them into sausages, and took the rest back to deal with it themselves. In this way, Liu Xiaoying's speed is faster.

In this way, Liu Xiaoying only charges a processing fee, and a processing fee of five yuan per catty, but the business is not good or good. Because Liu Xiaoying didn't go to the vegetable market to help, everyone went to the glass shop to ask for processing. In this way, Liu Xiaoying is so busy that she doesn't care about her feet. Fortunately, Lin Shuang was on vacation at this time. can help Liu Xiaoying deal with a lot of things.

"Mom, wait until next year, you can start making sausages earlier." Lin Shuang really felt that this was a quick way to make money. You don't have to prepare the ingredients yourself, just help to adjust the taste.

"Don't think about it, there must be other people selling sausages next year. If it weren't for the New Year in a few days this year, I'm afraid that someone would start selling it now. ”

"Not necessarily, everybody does it differently. If you're used to eating your sausages, you might not like them. Lin Shuang is quite sure of his mother's craftsmanship.

"See again next year! By the way, do you want to go and see your little friends, and listen to others, their Spring Festival couplets are selling well! "It's all in a vegetable market, so it's naturally well-informed!

"Going, going!"
