Chapter Twenty-Three: Heart-Touching

"Eldest sister, Uncle Fang's cake is ready, you see how many you want, I'll pick it up for you."

Putting the frame on the table, the eldest sister next to her immediately stood up, looked inside, and couldn't help but admire.

"Sister, your craftsmanship is good, it hasn't been long before such a few delicate cakes have been made."

Today at the bazaar, she bought a cake and tasted it, and she could never forget the taste, looking at the delicate cake in the basket, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and quickly took out a few new coins from her pocket.

"Look at how many uncles want, and I'll pick up the rest, and I'll take them out."

Hearing the eldest sister's words, Min Wanwan and Cheng Yan were a little excited, she nodded unambiguously, and hurriedly picked up two from the basket for Uncle Fang.

"Eldest sister, there are still six left in this basket, one is five cents and you will receive three yuan, you can go back with the basket, this cake is not easy to bring, wait for you to go to the market tomorrow, just bring it to me."

The eldest sister nodded, counted a few new coins from her hand, and handed them to Min Wanwan.

She took the money, looked up at the eldest sister with some confusion, took out a piece from the money, and returned it to her: "Eldest sister, you gave an extra piece." ”

But the eldest sister didn't take it, she shook her head and took the basket in Min Wanwan's hand: "I didn't give much, didn't I tell you when I came back from the market today, add a few cents and let you come back to do it for me, it's also troublesome for you, it's getting dark, I'll go back quickly." ”

The eldest sister walked out with the basket as she spoke, Min Wanwan hurriedly stepped forward to send the eldest sister, and when she came back, Uncle Fang held two small cakes in his hand and walked out happily.

"Girl, give the money to Cheng Yan's kid, it's not early, I'll go back first."

Seeing off Dr. Fang, Min Wanwan closed the door with an excited face and returned to the back room, still holding the four yuan tightly in her hand.

Cheng Yan looked at the happiness on her face, and also smiled together: "Today's cake is a complete sale, and I will beat you more eggs at night!" ”

Min Wanwan nodded, closed the door of the inner room with a smile, sat next to him, and carefully took out a cloth bag from her pocket, which contained the money from selling cakes today.

She shook out all the money, counted it carefully, and finally showed a satisfied smile on her face: "Excluding the money for eggs and flour, this one has earned a total of seven yuan and five!" ”

Seven yuan five is not a small amount on this day, and if the people in the village listen to it, they will definitely be so frightened that they can't close their mouths.

Cheng Yan and Min Wanwan, who got the first pot of gold, were very happy, and after a hurried meal in the evening, they began to prepare the ingredients for tomorrow's cake.

After today's cake supply exceeds demand, Min Wanwan is also ready to increase the amount of cakes made every day.

The two in the room were very busy, Cheng Yan was busy beating eggs, and Min Wanwan was busy kneading dough, although they were very tired, they were very happy to make money.

"When Ming'er makes money, I will buy you some new clothes in the town, and then buy some meat for the family to replenish your body."

The dim kerosene lamp was reflected on Min Wanwan's face, and there was a little blush on her green cheeks, which made Cheng Yan look at it, and a few smiles unconsciously appeared on her face.

Listening to Min Wanwan's words, his heart was warm, and he shook his head with a smile: "I won't go out again, the old clothes will be made to wear, and you can buy a few new clothes by yourself." ”

Since Min Wanwan got married, he has bought a decent new dress, and he is also distressed in his heart.

"This dress won't break if you put it there, when your legs are healed, you can wear this dress whenever you want, besides, I see you haven't added new clothes for many years."

Seeing that Cheng Yan was still wearing clothes with patches, she was also sour in her heart, and when she got married, she could see from this small earthen house on the edge that Cheng Yan was usually very frugal, and she was reluctant to spend money on herself.

"Wanwan, I think, you have worked hard to earn money, don't spend it on me, just buy some for yourself and save it, don't let my legs get better when the time comes, and drag you down......"

He also thought that Min Wanwan would let her save the money she earned from selling cakes, and when the time came, her legs would not be better, she was a woman, and she could support herself with all this money.

Hearing Cheng Yan say this, Min Wanwan was a little anxious, and hurriedly grabbed his arm that was beating eggs, and looked at his face deeply: "Cheng Yan, what are you talking about, I will definitely cure your legs, and I will buy clothes, and our family will definitely live a good life in the future!" ”

The more she spoke, the more excited she became, her eyes were slightly red, Cheng Yan saw it, her heart throbbed, and she nodded hurriedly: "I won't say this anymore in the future, don't be sad." ”

Min Wanwan's words touched Cheng Yan's heart even more, and she secretly swore in her heart more than once that as long as her leg injury was healed, he would definitely let Min Wanwan live a good life and would not live up to this woman who was sincere to him.

Early the next morning, like the day before, Min Wanwan got up before dawn and began to prepare to make cakes.

As I went back and forth, I was getting more and more comfortable with the stove, and the time was shortened a lot.

Because the number of cakes made today has increased a lot, the cakes can only be spread under the basket, not stacked, otherwise the cake will be crushed.

She simply carried two baskets, put the bread under the cake, spread the cake on top of the bread, and fastened it in the gap with a strip of white cloth, so that the cake could reach the market safely.

She carried a basket and a horse in her hand, and left the house under Cheng Yan's gaze.

When it came to the location where he set up a stall in the market yesterday, Uncle Liu, who was tied up in a bamboo basket, had already occupied a place there.

When he saw Min Wanwan, he hurriedly smiled and waved his hand, shouting at her: "My daughter is here!" ”

Putting down the basket, she took out a prepared cloth in the basket and spread it on the ground, put Ma Zazi behind her and sat down, smiled and took out a cake and a bread from the basket, and handed it to Uncle Liu next to her.

"Uncle, there are a lot of cakes and bread made today, you take it, don't need money!"

Uncle Liu waved his hand, but still didn't answer: "You can take these and sell them, my old man also enjoys this thing." ”

Min Wanwan had long expected that Uncle Liu would push back, she shook her head with a smile, and handed the cake and bread in her hand to Uncle Liu again: "Uncle, you can take it, this cake and bread are made of leftover scraps, it doesn't cost anything, and I don't plan to sell it, just give you a taste." ”

Sure enough, when he said this, Uncle Liu hesitated a little, and Min Wanwan saw the opportunity and hurriedly stuffed it into Uncle Liu's hand.

Uncle Liu carefully held the cake steadily, and when he wanted to speak, Min Wanwan next to him had already begun to prepare to set up a stall.

"Thank you, girl."

He carefully put the cake and bread in the basket next to him, and he was reluctant to eat them, and it seemed that he wanted to leave them for his grandson at home.
