Chapter 21 Set up a stall to test the waters
"Mother, you pack up your things, I'll send you to my eldest brother's house now." Chen Kui's face was ugly, staring at Wang Yufang who was sprinkling.
The play lasted for most of the day, but he didn't wait for his son's scolding of Liu Fang, but waited for such a sentence. Now Wang Yufang quit, sat on the ground and shouted bitterly, calling herself an unfilial son, and helping her daughter-in-law and outsiders to bully an old man like her.
If it weren't for what happened in front of me, I would have been deceived by Wang Yufang's miserable and pitiful appearance.
"Mother, please don't be ashamed anymore." Chen Kui was so noisy that his head hurt, if this person wasn't for his own mother, he would have been thrown out: "You have been separated over the years, aren't you doing well in your eldest brother's house." ”
Wang Yufang glared at him: "Your eldest brother treats me well, unlike you, an unfilial son, who choked on your mother for an outsider." I'm telling you, I can't send my wife out of the door. Saying that, Wang Yufang got up from the ground, entered the house viciously, and hate them when she passed by them when she was a child, and said in a weird way: "Some people don't like my wife, so I just don't leave here, and I can't see whom." ”
That unreasonable appearance was really angry, and Chen Kui suppressed the irritability in his heart and let the people around him disperse.
The farce is over, and it's time for the big guys to go about their own business. After a while, the courtyard was cleared, and only the three of them remained.
"Thank you so much for today." Chen Kui sincerely thanked the evening song.
There were so many people present, but none of them stood up to speak for Liu Fang, if it weren't for the evening song, his daughter-in-law might not have been bullied. With this thank you, Chen Kui said it very sincerely.
Wan Ge was startled, and hurriedly said that this is what he should do, thinking that when his uncle came to make trouble, it was Liu Fang and Du Chun who protected themselves, and several families were close on weekdays, and people took care of themselves so much, and now Chen Kui said these words It seems too obvious.
"Thank you still has to say." Chen Kui smiled, and then looked at Liu Fang, whose eyes were still red, distressedly: "I have wronged you, I knew that I would not go out today." ”
"I don't blame you." Liu Fang shook her head: "My mother is determined to make trouble with me, even if you accompany me at home, she will always find an opportunity to make trouble." She was angry and aggrieved, but she didn't complain about Chen Kui.
Chen Kui can stand on her side, she is already very content. In other words, if this happens in other people's families, the husband either follows the mother-in-law and tells the daughter-in-law that the daughter-in-law is not, or he is silent or in the middle of the mud and confuses the matter.
Besides, the burden on Chen Kui's shoulders is also quite heavy, she can't help with the work now, and all the heavy work expenses at home are on Chen Kui's shoulders. During this time, in order to earn more, people followed Zhao Zhuang to fish after finishing their work, thinking about earning more.
Wan Ge endured and endured on the side, and finally couldn't help but say to Chen Kui: "Brother Chen, this is your family matter, I shouldn't talk too much, but it's not a way to go on like this." My sister-in-law's womb is not very stable, and if it continues to be so noisy all day long, it will not be good for anyone. ”
"I don't know." It's just that it's more difficult to do it clearly, but looking at Liu Fang's wronged appearance, Chen Kui thought about it, and said ruthlessly: "If it really doesn't work, I'll go to the eldest brother and let him pick up people." ”
Hearing Chen Kui say this, Liu Fang said in his heart that it was all fake if he was not moved, this was the second time he had confronted Wang Yufang for himself.
"Actually, I'm avoiding a little mother, it's nothing."
"What to avoid, I am still hiding here like a thief at home, and what are you hiding there." Chen Kui pinched his sleeve and wiped his tears. Liu Fang is considerate of him, and he endures not to say anything when he is wronged by Wang Yufang on weekdays, if it weren't for Wang Yufang being too much, he wouldn't have to do it with others.
is like what the evening song said, his mother now makes it clear that she doesn't like Liu Fang, and she wants to toss people. Liu Fang can take care of herself and endure it again and again, but it is not a way to go on like this for a long time.
The family had already split up a few years ago, and at that time it was said that Wang Yufang would live in his eldest brother's house, and he would send some silver money every month as alimony. Wang Yufang wouldn't say anything if he lived honestly, after all, he was his own mother. But if he thinks about nothing all day long, and makes the chickens and dogs jump at home, then he will send people away no matter what.
When Liu Fang eased up, the three of them sat for a while, and Chen Kui turned around and went back to the field to get farm tools. I ran too fast before, and everything was in the ground, but now I have to go and get it back.
As soon as Chen Kui walked away, Wan Ge leaned in front of Liu Fang and whispered, "Sister-in-law, Brother Chen is really good to you!" ”
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarrel together, and it is rare for ordinary people to protect their wives like this, and I have to say that Chen Kui is good.
"Then Song Jiu is not good for you?" Liu Fang pushed away the evening song, what is she, Song Jiu is the really famous wife protector, look at the last time Jiang Zhichang was beaten half dead.
Liu Fang thought that there was a wicked mother-in-law on the evening song, and Song Jiu would not hesitate to stand on the side of the evening song and protect the evening song. No, maybe Song Jiu would protect people tightly from the beginning, let alone be wronged.
Wange grinned and didn't say anything more.
sat with Liu Fang for a while, and when Chen Kui got back the farm tools that fell in the field, he got up and said go back.
Liu Fang left her to eat, and Wan Ge waved her hand and said next time, today Song Jiu went to the town to sell braised meat, she was so anxious in her heart, and now she estimated that if someone wanted to come back, she had to go back quickly and wait for news.
Seeing this, Liu Fang didn't leave anyone behind, and just said that she would come over to play if she had nothing to do.
"Okay, sister-in-law, Brother Chen, I'll go back first." Wan Ge waved his hand at the two of them, trotted away. Looking at her anxious childlike appearance, Liu Fang couldn't help laughing, but then thinking about the person in the room who had nothing to do, she suddenly couldn't get better.
When I went back, I found that the person hadn't come back yet, and I couldn't sing the evening song, so I suppressed the loss and anxiety in my heart and went to the stove room to make lunch. It's just that she didn't expect that no one would come back after dinner, and she couldn't sit still a little at this time, and she frequently stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked out, muttering from time to time: "Why haven't you come back yet?" ”
Could it be that it is not easy to sell? Now my heart hangs higher.
I can't wait for anyone for a long time, and I don't have the heart to eat. Wan Ge put the cold food on the table back into the pot, took the insole and sat under the eaves to embroider slowly, but every few stitches of embroidery couldn't help but look up and look out. waited until the sun turned westward before Song Jiu's figure appeared, and the evening song that had been staring at it got up and ran out.
Before Song Jiu walked to the gate of the courtyard, people ran over, Song Jiu hurriedly stretched out his hand to hug the person, and said in a very bad tone: "Panic, what to run, what to do if you turn around and fall." ”
"You'll catch it." The evening song blurted out, without thinking about it.
Song Jiu shook his hand and looked at the person helplessly: "You! "He really can't do anything about people.
Wan Ge squinted and smiled, and then hurriedly asked people how is the braised meat selling today, does anyone buy it? Will anyone find it unpalatable or something?
Song Jiu didn't speak, glanced at the person incomprehensibly, and then slowly walked towards the courtyard with a stick, calm and relaxed. On the contrary, Wange was so anxious that she chased after her like a small bee that kept buzzing around Song Ji and asking.
In the end, he became angry, and dragged Song Jiu's clothes to prevent him from leaving: "Eh, what's the matter, you have something to say!" ”
was pulled, Song Jiu didn't feel angry, and looked at the angry evening song and thought it was quite interesting.
Song Jiu took off the basket with one hand and handed it to Wan Ge: "Look." ”
Wan Ge took a closer look, except for some knives and cutting boards, there was a large piece of pork that seemed to be unsold, and there was nothing else: "You show me this ........." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head in a flash of inspiration and looked at Song Jiu incredulously: "It's all sold out?" ”
"Hmm!" Song Jiu nodded and put the basket aside: "They tasted it and said it tasted good, you can make more and I'll take it with me." It's the money you sold, and you keep it. As he spoke, he took out a half-heavy money bag from his arms and handed it to Wan Ge.
Five catties of braised pork, except for half a catty of food, the rest sold for almost more than 200 yuan, which is not bad.
In fact, at the beginning, the braised pork was really unpopular, and he originally planned that if no one bought it after a while, he would give some to people to take back to eat. The taste of braised pork is really good, and I believe that after tasting it, there will be one or two people who will buy it. In business, no matter how much money is made at the beginning, it is all accumulated little by little and slowly saved.
I didn't expect a few old customers to come in the end, and they all liked to buy game from him on weekdays. Seeing him setting up a stall today, I also wanted to see if there was any game, but I didn't think that Song Jiu was selling braised meat and was suddenly curious. Seeing this, Song Ji cut some for people to taste.
After tasting the slices, he decisively asked Song Jiu to come back to make snacks. Thinking that he is an old customer, Song Jiu is cheap. A pound of braised pork was at least ten cents cheaper than the two in the town, and the man was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
With one person patronizing, it seems logical that the braised meat will be sold out in a short time.
Knowing that the braised pork he made was sold for so much money, Wan Ge held the money bag and smiled from ear to ear. But then she smiled and asked Song Jiu with a straight face: "Since it has been sold out a long time ago, why did you come back." "I don't know how anxious she is when she hasn't seen him come back for a long time?
"Didn't you say that there aren't many spices at home, I went to a few shops to buy some for you." Saying that, Song Jiu lifted the meat in the basket and took out a few packets of spices wrapped in oiled paper from below: "There is nothing left in the meat at home, I deliberately left ten catties of fresh pork, all of which are good." With these, we can cook more later. ”
"So much?" Evening Song exclaimed.
"Trust me, it's sold out." Saying that, Song Jiu turned around and threw the meat into the stove room.
Wange wants to believe Song Jiu, but what about ten catties, will it be too much.
