Chapter Twenty-Eight: How to Reap the Benefits
However, in line with the principle of "thick skin, eat a piece of meat", even if they are embarrassed, they can't miss what they should take! So Shui Dayou put down the teacup in his hand, settled down and opened his mouth to Daquan.
"Brother, you see that you also received this thing, so this time you and your niece should also give us some of the things you bought in the county seat! Seeing that the poor people in the family can't open the pot, and there are many children, how many can you help a handful or two! ”
Although he has long understood the cheekiness of his younger brother's family. However, this time they blatantly targeted the things that their daughter bought in the county, and it is not an exaggeration to say that such behavior is shameless.
However, you have a good plan, and I have a wall ladder. This cheap brother's family will cry poor, won't it be watery?
So, Shui Daquan's face collapsed, and he immediately put on an embarrassed expression: "Alas, now that you have all eaten meat, there is not much coarse grain left in this house, I want to give you another hand, but how can I exert my strength?"
Seeing that Shui Dayou and his wife did not let go, Shui Daquan decided to add fire and act like some. So, he deliberately looked at the stove house and gently rolled up his sleeves.
"Wow! Brother, what's wrong with your arm? This bandage is so thick! ”
Seeing that Shui Daquan had spoken, Shui Daquan glared at his younger brother vigorously, and then lowered his voice: "Shhhh......hhh Be quiet, it's not good to be heard from afar! Do you know how my arm hurts? I won't hide it from you, recently my family owes a lot of money to others because of the remote schooling, which Cheng thinks that the other party is a difficult master, and he will start with me if he doesn't agree. Now, I can't even eat wild vegetable dumplings at home. So ......"
Shui Da has two people, why didn't they come back and leave after taking something? Where have you ever heard of this kind of thing? Now I also put out the thought of picking wool. But in all fairness, if he went back empty-handed and didn't even eat a hot meal, then he wouldn't be willing to do it anyway. Besides, this time they came over and gave such a good piece of meat.
Thinking of this, Shui Dayou and his wife glanced at each other, and after understanding. Yu Xiaoqin pulled out a smile, and then opened her mouth to Shui Daquan: "Brother, I see that this is about to be dinner." My sister-in-law estimated that she was about to come back. I haven't seen her in the past few days, and I can't think about it. Why don't we have a meal and talk later? ”
Shui Daquan saw that these two people didn't plan to fight their family's food idea anymore, and they were relieved at this time. shouted in the direction of the kitchen: "Yaoyao, remember to use up all the stocks later, rub a few more wild vegetable balls, and get more porridge, your uncle and aunt will put aside our family to eat later." You've got to be prepared! ”
Shui Yao, who was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, heard it and immediately figured it out: it turned out that the two of them were going to stay and eat again. So, I soaked the sliced potatoes in the salted water, poured the fine grains in the bowl back into the noodle bag, and mixed the coarse grains that had bottomed out a few days ago with water to make a "bittersweet memory" rice.
Sure enough, when it was time to eat, Shui Dayou looked at the wild vegetable dumplings and the porridge in front of him, and his face immediately collapsed: "Brother, isn't this rice a little ......?"
When Shui Daquan saw it, he secretly laughed in his heart: his daughter really didn't cover it, as soon as he said it, he understood what he meant, and she was really clever and cute!
I saw that he cleared his throat slightly, raised his eyebrows, and took over the words with a displeased face: "Oh? What's wrong with this meal? Don't you think that's bad? ”
When Shui Da heard this, he knew that his eldest brother was unhappy. So, he hurriedly smiled and echoed: "How can there be such a thing? None of us will dislike it. ”
At the end of a meal, there are two mouthfuls of water that can't swallow it, like sitting on pins and needles. However, when he was leaving, he still walked the wild vegetable dumplings of Shui Daquan's father and daughter as usual, and then turned back three times and left reluctantly.
After sending off the best couple, Shui Yao re-entered the kitchen, refined the piece of fat brought by Shui Dayou into lard, and then fried the potato slices in lard until they were charred and yellow, and spread out a tortilla, before entering the back room and waking up Shui Yun to go over to eat.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Shui Yun saw the potatoes on the table, his eyes lit up: "Sister, how did you do this?" It's delicious to look at! It's much better than Aunt Li's peanuts at the gate of our school......"
After Shui Yao came back from the county seat, he has been thinking about ways to make money. Although she made a trip to the black market, she was still a little disappointed with what she saw. It's all about rice, flour and vegetables, because it's good if people have enough to eat now. But at home, there are not many of these things, even if Shui Daquan is a worker, but there is not much food at home to the point of exchanging it.
But just after hearing Shui Yunyi, Shui Yao came back to his senses, and it was estimated that Aunt Li, who was selling peanuts in his mouth, was not simple! Although there are some people who do small business now, but the state has not allowed such a practice after all, doing business in this era is speculative, it is "cutting the tail of capitalism", once it is caught, it will definitely be over!
Suppressing the curiosity in his heart, Shui Yao patiently asked Shui Yun, who had eaten a mouthful full of oil at this time: "Yunyun, is this Aunt Li you are talking about, is she selling peanuts at the gate of your school?"
When Shui Yun heard this, he quickly covered his mouth, and then shook his head like a rattle: "Where is there anything?" What Aunt Li, I didn't say ......"
Shui Yao couldn't help but laugh when he heard it: It turns out that this "Aunt Li" is not simple, she doesn't sell things by herself, and she teaches children to keep their mouths in order. So, Shui Yao continued to coax Shui Yun: "Yunyun, sister, I heard everything!" But don't worry, my sister won't tell you this! Don't believe it, let's pull the hook! ”
Shui Yao's eyes were very sincere, and after her assurance, Shui Yun immediately believed his sister's words and began to gush: "Sister, you don't know. That auntie's peanuts are delicious! Every time she comes out for a while, that big basket will definitely sell a pack left! But the price is not cheap, I always have to save up the pocket money given by my mother for several days to buy a small pack......"
Looking at Shui Yun's little mouth that was pouting because he was dissatisfied, Shui Yao felt very interesting: "Yunyun, how much is a pack of peanuts, you see your face is wrinkled." However, if my sister went to sell this potato chip, do you think this thing would be popular? ”
When Shui Yun heard this, the frowning brows that were still frowning just now immediately relaxed, and there was even a trace of excitement in his eyes: "Sister, is what you said true?" Are you really going to sell this potato in front of my school? I'm telling you, don't sell it too expensive! Aunt Li's peanuts cost five cents a pack, and there are not a few grains in it. Several of my classmates told me they didn't plan to buy it! ”
Shui Yao thought that his younger brother would start school in two days, and he just took this opportunity to go to the school gate to explore the way to see if there was a strict investigation of small business, so that he could make further plans.
"Then when you start school, my sister will send you over. By the way, I also bought two packs of peanuts and rice to try and see which one is more delicious, this or the small potatoes! ”
When Shui Yun heard this, he was very happy: "Okay, good!" Sister, you give me a quasi-letter, do you sell this little potato? If you sell it, then I'll talk to all the classmates and buy it when the time comes! ”
Shui Yao heard it, there is a door now! You know, children's spending power is also not to be underestimated! As far as she knows, many future industry bigwigs started by selling snacks. Then she might as well try it too. Although selling small potatoes can't be regarded as a stable business, you can exchange some pocket money, and when school starts, it is estimated that there will be a lot of places to use money!
During this time, she didn't have to go to the production team, and she just had time to think about some snacks. In addition, potatoes are a good thing, and there are a lot of them in the private fields behind. So he discussed with Shui Yunyi, and the matter of selling small potatoes was decided.
However, for now, she has to go to the gate of Shui Yun's school to investigate carefully before she can take further action.
So, in the next two days, Shui Yao prepared a small basket and made a lot of small paper bags at home, so that after the small potatoes were ready, they could be sold in bags and bags. But she didn't dare to do more potato chips, after all, she did a lot without first-hand research, and she couldn't sell them at one time, and the things softened overnight.
On the day Shui Yun started school, Shui Yao got up early in the morning. Thinly slice two large potatoes from the backyard, fry them in the last seasoned lard, and sprinkle them with salt and chili flour. Then he put his things in a small bag, carried the basket and went to school with Shui Yun.
On the water cloud is the primary school of their production team, because in their place, the adults in the family have to work in the field early, and they have no time to watch the children, so they all send the children to the primary school, not thinking about what they can learn, the main thing is to send the children over to rest assured, and save the family a lot of thought.
When I arrived at the school gate, there were already many students gathered there, and the big and small swarms were standing at the school gate waiting. At this time, Shui Yao, who had been following Shui Yun, was pulled by his younger brother, and then, following the direction Shui Yun pointed, Shui Yao found a woman carrying a small basket like her.
I saw that she was slightly thin, of medium height, with a flower cloth wrapped around her head, a dark blue cotton dress on her body, and a basket on her arm that was very eye-catching. I saw her standing there at this time, looking around, sneaky, as if she was hiding someone.
"Sister, do you see it? Aunt Li is here, should we go over and buy two packs of peanuts and rice to try? ”
