Song Shunli was busy in the kitchen, and when he saw Mu Xiu, he suddenly looked happy, and he said happily: "Xiu, you are here, you go into the house to rest, and I will talk about it when I am done." ”

"Brother-in-law, I brought some zongzi to sell, you boil the water and cook the zongzi for a while." Mu Xiu said.

"Two days ago, I said that it was almost the Dragon Boat Festival, and I haven't taken out the time to wrap zongzi, and I'm going to buy some, so you'll wrap it, okay, I'll boil water now." Song Shunli glanced at Chen Xuhui, who was moving the zongzi to the kitchen, and said.

"Brother-in-law, this is a sweet zongzi, with dates and peanuts in the bread." Mu Xiu pointed to the bamboo basket that Chen Xuhui moved in first and said.

"These are salted rice dumplings, and the bread is marinated pork belly and salted egg yolks." Mu Xiu pointed to the bamboo basket that Chen Xuhui was moving inside.

"Salted rice dumplings? It's the first time I've heard of it. Song Shunli raised his head and looked at Mu Xiu in surprise.

"It's the same as the fresh meat dumplings, some people love to eat sweet, some people love salty, when the zongzi is cooked, you can taste it first." Mu Xiu said with a smile.

"Okay, I love to eat that salted egg yolk, this salted zongzi sounds delicious." Song Shunli took the fried popcorn out of the pot and poured it into the basin, Chen Xuhui helped take it to the front shop, and Song Shunli began to boil hot water to cook zongzi.

"Brother-in-law, you wait for the water to boil before boiling the zongzi, so that the zongzi leaves are green and beautiful." Mu Xiu reminded.

"Okay, I see, the kitchen is hot, you go and sit in the yard." Song Shunli wiped his sweat, now this day is getting hotter and hotter day by day, and summer is coming.

It's June 11, and it's cool to sit under a big tree in the yard in the early morning, and it's cooler than in your room, and it's hot when the sun is big at noon.

"Where's my aunt?" Mu Xiu looked at the closed door and asked softly.

"The child had prickly heat, twisted tweed in bed last night, and cried for most of the night, and the mother and son are sleeping back to sleep at this time." Song Shunli said distressedly.

"Brother-in-law, why don't you buy an electric fan?" Mu Xiu remembers that she had seen an electric fan in the store.

"Your aunt wants to save money to buy a house, saying that the electric fan is too expensive, and one of them is almost 100, which is more than three months' salary for others."

"I should have saved more than 3,000 yuan in the past few months, and I can buy a house." Mu Xiu made a rough calculation in his heart.

"We've been to see it, a house with a yard and a façade costs two thousand eight, and then buy some furniture, pick up and pick up, I'm afraid it will cost more than three thousand, just this amount of money in hand, the cost of the three children is also big, we are ready to save some more money, and buy a house in a few months." Song Shunli said with some embarrassment.

The two had already discussed that before buying a house, all the money should not be spent indiscriminately.

Mu Xiu actually understands the thoughts of the two of them now, isn't there a word called poor and generous, the more you can't make money, the more you are willing to spend a little money in your hand, and you can't save a few dollars, but if you start to make money, and then you can save a little money in your hands, then you will become reluctant to eat, unwilling to use, just feel that you are very poor, and want to save more money.

Therefore, many people are desperately trying to save money when they have money, Mu Xiu has seen the old man and lady who are worth more than 10 million wear very plain clothes, and they are not willing to eat or wear.

"It's a good thing, it's cool in the evening." Mu Xiu has spent two summers here, there is no exhaust pollution, only hot at noon, very cool in the morning and evening, and in the countryside, in the middle of the night, he has to cover with a thin blanket.

"Brother-in-law, you cook zongzi first, I'll go out and come back at noon, if you have something, you can call Brother Chen for help." Mu Xiu stood up, she came to the county seat this time, and she had other things to do.

"Okay, you go and get busy with yours." Song Shunli waved his hand at Mu Xiu.

Mu Xiu walked to the front store, explained a few words to Chen Xuhui, who had already come to the front to help, and left. Walking to a secluded place, she took out her bicycle and put all the things she had prepared before into the basket at the back, and she went to Sun Xingfu's pickle shop first.

It was already ten o'clock, and the peak of the first wave of eating had passed, and there were only a few scattered customers and people coming in and out to buy pickles.

"Mu Xiu, you're here." As soon as Sun Xingfu looked up, he saw Mu Xiu who had just gotten off the bicycle.

"Uncle Sun, tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, I'll send you and Aunt Cui some zongzi." Mu Xiu parked his bicycle and took out a bag of zongzi from the back basket, Mu Xiu used to pack a lot of zongzi, all of which were placed in the space, these zongzi have more flavors, salted meat egg yolk zongzi, candied date peanut zongzi, bean paste zongzi, bacon zongzi, lotus paste zongzi.

"Or you are careful, we also said that this afternoon to soak glutinous rice, just wrap a few should be in response to the solar terms, you send zongzi, we will save trouble." Sun Xingfu took the zongzi and said happily.

"You and Aunt Cui are usually busy, so how can you be as free as me." Mu Xiu smiled, and after saying goodbye to Sun Xingfu, he went to the next place.

Sun Xingfu took the zongzi to the back kitchen and let Huang Cui cook it, tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, this zongzi is cooked first and then put away, so it is not easy to break.

"Where did you buy this?" Huang Cui glanced at the zongzi and asked while boiling water.

"Gangmuxiu came to send it, saying that the Dragon Boat Festival is over, and the dumplings made by yourself are made." Sun Xingfu sat on the bench at the kitchen door to rest.

"Look at the business of other people's snack shops, it's much better than ours, you said why didn't she open it with our family, those small snacks are easy and easy to sell, which is like our family, not to mention the smoke and fire every day, and the dishes and chopsticks that can't be washed, in winter, the dishwashing water is cold, and the hands are frozen, and in summer, cooking will suffocate people to death......" Huang Cui has always had thoughts in her heart since she learned from Sun Xingfu's mouth last time that the snack shop was opened by Mu Xiu and her aunt in the city, and she finally couldn't help complaining at this time.

"Our family was originally a pickle shop, how could people come to sell snacks with us at that time, not to mention anything else, then she really told us not to sell pickles and sell snacks, will you agree?" Sun Xingfu rarely loses his temper, but his tone at this time is indescribably sharp.

"I ......" Huang Cui was a little stuck, indeed, if Mu Xiu proposed not to sell pickles, she would definitely be the first to jump out and disagree, after all, they started by selling pickles, and they changed their livelihood casually, so it was not safe, what should I do if I lose it!

"To be a man must have a conscience, our family is living such a good life now, we must be content, we must know that if there is no Muxiu, our business can be so good?"

"I... I didn't mean anything else, just a few casual remarks. Huang Cui was a little ashamed of Sun Xingfu's words, and she explained hesitantly.
