Chapter 5: The Villain

And the tofu was made, and the reaction of Zheng Xiaoyue and his wife, made Jiang Huaiyu see the dawn of success.

At this moment, Jiang Huaiyu even gave up a lot of ideas, just selling tofu can have a stable income, so she doesn't need to make too many amazing things to attract people's attention.

Putting aside what he was thinking for the time being, Jiang Huaiyu looked at Wang Dazhuang, who was thoughtful, and Zheng Xiaoyue, who was amazed at the tenderness of the tofu, and his expression became solemn.

"Actually, Yu Niang specially showed you how to make tofu in front of the two of you today, because she has one thing to ask for!" Jiang Huaiyu said.

Zheng Xiaoyue also began to understand, but when she realized that this gift was too heavy, she subconsciously wanted to refuse: "This ......"

"Sister-in-law, listen to me first!" Jiang Huaiyu's eyes rolled, thinking of the other party's recent attitude, he arranged his identity and origin along the way, and said with a hidden face: "My sister-in-law knows that I was abandoned by someone to give birth to my cousin, and the person with a weak heart didn't even want to see my own flesh and blood again in order to marry a beautiful girl, and drove my mother and wife out of the house!" Now that I am in a foreign land, I have a child, and it is necessary to have a way to make money, but I am a weak woman, and now I have a thousand gold recipes for tofu, maybe I will only sell it for a day, and I will be forced to spit out the secret recipe for making this tofu. ”

Rubbing his eyes, his delicate skin immediately turned red, Jiang Huaiyu looked at Zheng Xiaoyue with teary eyes: "Thanks to me for meeting you, especially a kind person like you, sister-in-law." If my sister-in-law is willing, she will help me with Brother Wang, and we can divide the money we earn equally. ”

Zheng Xiaoyue is easy to be soft-hearted, and if you think about it carefully, as long as she can sell 100 yuan of tofu every day, it is 100 yuan!

After saving a few taels of silver and opening a tofu shop in the county town, she can earn one tael a day, and then she can let her son go to a private school and her daughter can wear new clothes.

The husband doesn't need to work so hard, and he can live more comfortably.

With such a good thing, Zheng Xiaoyue immediately wanted to agree, but she still glanced at her husband sensibly.

The taciturn Wang Dazhuang is also a little enthusiastic at the moment, Jiang Huaiyu's words are like gold falling from the sky to them, Wang Dazhuang is a person who has been to Beijing, but even so, he has never heard of tofu, let alone seen it.

So Wang Dazhuang knows very well what kind of big waves this small piece of tofu can make.

As the saying goes, support the bold and starve the cowardly, for the sake of the lady and the two children, Wang Dazhuang said that he would have to fight.

Thinking of this, Wang Dazhuang shook his head.

When the two women looked surprised and thought he was going to refuse, they said: "The money earned, Miss Jiang eight, our husband and wife can be divided into two, this is the rule, no matter how much, we won't ask for it." ”

Looking at Wang Dazhuang, who had a dark face but resolute expression, his expression was serious, Jiang Huaiyu couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he was lucky.

Jiang Huaiyu smiled leisurely and did not refuse, but suggested another: "In this way, I will only take 30%, and the remaining 40% will be used as preparation for opening a shop and recruiting some workers." ”

There is no doubt that Jiang Huaiyu's proposal made Zheng Xiaoyue and his wife even more satisfied.

Although Geng is upright and kind, they are not fools, Jiang Huaiyu does this to make them feel more at ease, which means that Jiang Huaiyu is not the kind of person who kills chickens and takes eggs, like tofu, which is only one business that is doing, it is best to have a shop in the county town that specializes in selling it.

After a busy morning, finalizing the cooperation after that, Wang Dazhuang also solemnly asked Jiang Huaiyu and him to go to the village chief's house to write a coupon book, not because he was afraid that Jiang Huaiyu would trap them, but because he hoped that Jiang Huaiyu could have a share of the guarantee.

Jiang Huaiyu, who was helpless and funny, wrote a coupon book by himself, and under the eyes of Wang Dazhuang and his wife, he pressed his handprint, and the contract was established.

Walking out of Wang's house, Jiang Huaiyu could still hear the fragrance of tofu around him, causing some people to ask who was making something delicious, although his body was sore, his eyes were very bright and pleasant, and there was no trace of fatigue.

Xu Chunhua was lying on her stomach with numb legs and feet, and stood up grinning, but she couldn't figure out where Jiang Huaiyu got the confidence to sell tofu for a penny, and she couldn't understand how this tofu came to be, thinking that she would go back and follow Jiang Huaiyu's process of making tofu, Xu Chunhua walked home with a body of weeds and leaves.

Outside, Wang Dazhuang helped to show up, walked the streets and alleys to sell tofu, and made a reputation, and Zheng Xiaoyue helped make tofu inside, Jiang Huaiyu only needed to control the allocation of gypsum water.

Soon I will be able to live the arbitrary life of a small landlord's wife, and I think about it.

Jiang Huaiyu was lying on the side of the bed teasing the sugar packet, before the little guy pouted angrily, she smiled and bent her eyes, regardless of whether he understood or not: "My mother will soon become the king of tofu, after earning money, buy a house with a yard in the county, and then send you to study, think about it carefully, modern life is in a hurry every day, send me here, maybe I want to learn to enjoy life, right?" In this case, my mother will use tofu to eat all over the world! It's not bad to live this life plainly. ”

At this time, Jiang Huaiyu lost his vigilance against the greed of the elite class because of the upright kindness of Zheng Xiaoyue and his wife, thinking that as long as he didn't make any more moves, tofu alone was not enough to attract their attention.

After a while, in addition to hoping that the sugar packet will grow up healthily and safely, it is enough to summarize the four words of ambition.

Wang Dazhuang and his wife are both very hard-working people, and the success or failure of this matter has been completely linked to them, and the husband and wife have worked in an orderly manner.

Zheng Xiaoyue made tofu at home, Jiang Huaiyu assisted in helping, and Wang Dazhuang went out to sell the finished tofu through the streets and alleys.

Not surprisingly, the first plate of tofu was snatched up before it left Wangjia Village.

When Wang Dazhuang came back, he could see the red and excited expression on his dark face, and he said excitedly: "Twenty yuan!" In just a few moments, we have earned twenty wen! ”

Zheng Xiaoyue sighed: "It's really so easy to sell, I'm worried that everyone won't want to buy it if they haven't seen it." ”

Wang Dazhuang scratched his head and said: "Thanks to Miss Jiang's reminder, I brought a bowl of dipping sauce out, and when I shouted, I said that it was free to try, one small piece per person, even Liu Xiucai came over curiously to try it, and after eating, he was full of praise and immediately bought two pieces of tofu back." ”

The status of the literati in Dayun Country is very high, not to mention Liu Xiucai's status in Wangjia Village, even he, a pedant, is full of praise for eating, even if he doesn't know and hasn't seen it, he has to buy a piece and go back to try it, what if his own children eat it?

Fortunately, after getting familiar with the production process, the speed at which the tofu can be formed is getting faster and faster, Wang Dazhuang has been selling from morning to night, for two consecutive days, and finally spread the name of the tofu all over the countryside, and even the restaurants in the county town have asked if there are dishes made with tofu.

If someone shows a look of curiosity and bewilderment, those who have tasted the tofu will have a dignified expression and begin to praise the tofu's tender texture and versatility.

They were boasting there, and although the listeners pouted disdainfully, they still couldn't help but be curious, what is this tofu! Everyone is from a village, why can he eat it, but I have never seen it?

Under the guidance of Jiang Huaiyu, a hunger marketing swept the entire county, when everyone was curious about what tofu was, early in the morning, Wang Dazhuang picked up a flat burden, on the left is a five-plate tofu, and on the right is a small jar surrounded by one person, which is filled with tofu flowers.

Wang Dazhuang got on a donkey cart and staggered to the county seat.

Standing in front of the courtyard gate, Jiang Huaiyu had a calm expression, glanced at Zheng Xiaoyue, who seemed to be a little nervous, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, let's continue to make the tofu in the afternoon." ”

"Yes!" Zheng Xiaoyue nodded, but she thought in her heart that it didn't matter if the tofu was not sold well in the county, anyway, it would be sold in a few villages around here, so her nervous mood relaxed a lot, and then she was busy making tofu.

The tofu was quickly set in the wooden board, Jiang Huaiyu wiped his hands, and brought the tiger head hat made by the little girl of Xianghe to the sugar packet, the sugar bag grew white and tender, a pair of Portuguese round, bright and spirited, and the soft fetal hair was covered by the tiger head hat.

The little guy seemed a little unaccustomed to wearing a hat, but when he saw his mother's happy appearance, he also grinned happily, revealing two teeth the size of a grain of rice, and his appearance was funny and cute.

It made Jiang Huaiyu's heart tremble.

Just as she was teasing her son, there was a knock on the door outside, Zheng Xiaoyue was busy grinding beans, Jiang Huaiyu walked to open the door with the sugar packet, and saw Xu Chunhua's smiling face when she entered the eye, revealing an embarrassment.

Xu Chunhua glanced at the courtyard before she entered the door, and then smiled at Jiang Huaiyu: "I said that you didn't come to your aunt's house to sit in the past few days, it turned out that you were busy at their house, but the tofu that has been selling so much recently?" ”

Subconsciously resisting the other party's closeness, Jiang Huaiyu cleared his throat and said: "The sister-in-law of the Wang family can't be busy alone, so I'll bring the child over to help." ”

"Oh......" Xu Chunhua's expression was absent-minded, and she always wanted to see Zheng Xiaoyue's movements in the courtyard clearly.

Jiang Huaiyu didn't like her behavior very much, frowned and said, "Is there anything wrong with my aunt?" ”

Xu Chunhua's face froze, and then she whispered: "My aunt's family has a few relatives in the county, and they all have friendships with those restaurants and restaurants, and they all say that this tofu is a rare thing, but it's a pity that Wang Dazhuang's splash skin is selling."

As soon as I saw you, I knew that you were a clever man, and this tofu must be your idea, so I wanted you to know that Wang Dazhuang has a bad reputation, otherwise why are you still wandering around several villages these days, and the only food is only sold for a penny. My relatives can tell me that if my aunt sells this tofu, they will also want it for three cents! How much worse do you think about it? ”

has been neighbors with Wang Dazhuang's family for so many years, Xu Chunhua still doesn't know what they are, this unheard of tofu must be something made by Jiang Huaiyu's little girl's skin.
