It was just nine o'clock when he got home, and after Zhou Duochun helped Li Xia unload the coal stove, he rode a tricycle to the new house next to him to do things.

"How's it going, how much did Lixia sell for this morning?" Before Zhou Duochun could stop the car, Chen Meiling stepped forward to ask.

Zhou Duochun wiped her sweat, she collected all the money, and she knew it in her heart, "Lixia sells cheaper than other stalls, four cents a piece, a total of one hundred and fifty-seven, and sells for six yuan and two cents." ”

Chen Meiling counted her fingers and toes, and she didn't understand how much money she could earn in a month of six yuan a day, two cents and eight cents, and immediately urged Zhou Duochun to calculate.

"I can make about one hundred and eighty-eight dollars." Zhou Duochun came out with a mental calculation.

That's nearly 200 yuan! Chen Meiling's eyes lit up.

Just one pot of batter, you can make so much money, if you make a few more pots of batter a day, not to earn more, you must know that the ordinary workers working in the cotton weaving factory are only 12 to 15 a month.

Chen Meiling suddenly slapped her thigh, "My God, this is not like money falling from the sky, Qiyi, we can also do this business." ”

Who doesn't know how to spread pumpkin pie, she has been spreading for half her life, and she doesn't need many tools, glutinous rice flour or something is ready-made at home, Chen Meiling just can't wait to go to the field to pick pumpkins and make them.

"Where is it so easy to do business, coal, grain and oil don't need money! Don't give me a fool's errand, don't you hear! Zhou Qiyi glared at Chen Meiling.

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Duochun gently, "You guys set up a stall, didn't you touch anything?" ”

Not long after Zhou Duochun was born, his parents divorced, and his stepmother Luo Fengxian entered the door, and soon Zhou Qing was born, there was no place for her at home, and Zhou Duochun lived with his grandparents since he was a child.

After Zhou Qiren followed Li Xia's father to work, it didn't take long for Luo Fengxian to follow him to do things.

At that time, Zhou Duochun's sister-in-law gave birth to a child, and Zhou's grandmother went to take care of her grandson, and Zhou Duoqing, who stayed at home, and Zhou's relatives went to Zhou Qiyi's house to live together.

Although Zhou Qiyi is Zhou Duochun's second uncle, Zhou Qiyi has always been silent, he just buries his head in things every day, and his uncle and nephew don't talk much, let alone care about her.

More often, Chen Meiling is responsible for arranging the lives of Zhou Duochun and Zhou Qing.

Chen Meiling has an average relationship with Luo Fengxian, but Zhou Qiren has the ability, Chen Meiling is tied to Luo Fengxian, and she has always been amiable to Zhou Qing.

It's different for Zhou Duochun, she is completely used as a nanny, and Zhou Duochun does all the laundry and cooking.

But for Zhou Duochun, the partiality from her second aunt is completely acceptable, which is much better than her father's indifference when he is in front of him.

Zhou Duochun, who rarely received any attention, suddenly heard Zhou Qiyi's slightly concerned tone, and his heart suddenly became a little excited, and his aggrieved emotions were faintly emerging.

"Second uncle, we met a few gangsters and almost smashed the stall!" Zhou Duochun couldn't help but say a little exaggeratedly.

Zhou Qiyi's expression quickly became serious, "What's the matter, you tell me carefully." ”

"Of the three of them, one of them was particularly fierce and kicked our tricycle several times......" Zhou Duochun nodded heavily and recounted everything that happened at that time.

Chen Meiling was also a little apprehensive when she heard this, but when she thought of the money Li Xia earned in the morning, she couldn't help but be moved.

The two of them are children, isn't it easy to be targeted by gangsters, it would be different if she went, she is an adult or a local, it is said on TV, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, their Zhou family is in the local area, and it can be regarded as a family with a head and a face.

"You said that man had a grudge against Li Xia's father?" Zhou Qiyi frowned slightly, and there was not much emotion on his yellow face.

Zhou Duochun nodded, "What did the wild brother say personally, second uncle, what if he comes back tomorrow to find fault?" ”

"I'll go with you tomorrow!" Chen Meiling immediately spoke up.

Zhou Qiyi glanced over, Chen Meiling pursed her lips unhappily, and didn't say anything about going with her, "It's okay, you are children, they don't dare to bully people openly." ”

He wished that Li Shengping's enemy would find Li Xia, and it was best to smash the stall, so that he could come forward to defend it.

Zhou Duochun was a little disappointed, but she also knew that it was the busy time at home, and her second uncle couldn't wait to work in the new house 24 hours a day, how could he have time to accompany them to the town to set up a stall.

After Zhou Qiyi went to do the incident, Chen Meiling was still asking by Zhou Duochun's side, and heard that Zhou Duochun praised Li Xia Cake for being very good, beautiful and delicious, Chen Meiling was very disapproving.

How old is Li Xiacai? It's only been a few years since she took a spatula, but she has been holding it for half her life, and Li Xia's cooking skills can compare to her?

"Don't touch that mind! Isn't there enough work at home for you? Zhou Qiyi finished carrying the cement and pushed the tricycle to go back to the old house to pull materials, "We are our own people, and it is better to farm well than anything else." ”

His eldest brother told him that in two years, he would find a way to get him a job in the brigade and become a cadre in the brigade, but he would be a cadre in the future, and he could not be a capitalist in his family.

The current branch secretary of the village does not know a single big character, and he only attended a few days of literacy classes in the early years, but he is a person who has gone to school in the middle of the century.

The most important thing now is to make good deeds in the village and establish a good image of the Zhou family, so that you can act well in the future.

His eldest brother has arranged all this, just do it.

Chen Meiling's heart is ready to move, but Zhou Qiyi is the head of the family, and what he doesn't agree with, she can't do it no matter how much she wants to do it.

……

After returning home, Li Xia made up for sleep, slept for an hour and got up, read books and do housework, and the day passed quickly.

At night, Li Xia went to bed early, got up at one o'clock in the morning to work, waited for her to prepare the things for the stall, and went to Zhou's house to borrow a tricycle as usual.

"Xia Xia, I heard that you have made a lot of money, at a young age, you are really promising." Chen Meiling rarely didn't sleep lazy, as soon as Li Xia arrived, she went out.

There was a strong sour smell on her face, Li Xia couldn't cry or laugh, Chen Meiling really couldn't see others being a little good, even if the other party was still a child from a poor family.

And, if I'm not mistaken, her income yesterday, after deducting the cost, only made four cents at most, and this is still not included in the case of labor.

Li Xia's mind spun quickly, and she chose the least suspicious response.

She lowered her head slightly, her face overwhelmed.

Zhou Duochun, who had already gotten up early to wash her clothes, was also a little flustered, and yesterday her second aunt asked her and replied directly, she didn't think too much about it at all, where did she think that her second aunt would wait for Li Xia here.

"Second aunt ......" Zhou Duochun hesitated to speak.

Chen Meiling glanced at Zhou Duochun, and looked at Li Xia with a smile, "Hey, Xia Xia, you don't know, there was no tricycle yesterday, your uncle Tuesday pulled the flatbed truck to drag the bricks by himself, and pulled back and forth several times, but he was not lightly tired, you see if it is convenient for you......"

If you can't make money, you can't lend the tricycle to Li Xia to make money.

Suddenly there was a cough from inside the room.

Chen Meiling's words came to her mouth, and she turned around, "...... Forget it, it's not easy for you, such a mother on the stall, hey, push the car away. ”
