Chapter 38: Soap

After listening to Zhang Xingwang's words, Keke smiled and said: "Uncle Zhang, your dishes are not enough, I bought a bit more people this time, there are twenty-five people!" ”

"What! Why do you buy so many people? Zhang Xingwang was shocked when he heard that there were twenty-five people, so many people, food, clothing, housing and transportation do not cost money! Not to mention anything else, just eat this, I'm afraid it will cost a lot every day, why does this kid not know how to save, this big spending!

The Liu family on the side was also taken aback, these twenty-five people, how much food do they have to eat every day! "How can you spend money so indiscriminately? How much money will it cost you to feed and clothe so many people in the future? You buy two or three people, when you can't be busy, your Uncle Zhang and I, as well as your Dacheng brother, also have the strength to help you in the past, and you can deal with it! ”

"Uncle, aunt, I know you care about me, I won't use money indiscriminately, I have a plan, you will know in the future! My uncle and aunt just sold me the extra vegetables, and told the people in the village that I just didn't buy them in the village, and I had to buy them the same way when I went to the county seat, and I had to walk more, so buying them in the village saved me from running away. Keke said.

When I went back, I was carrying a basket of vegetables packed by Liu's in my hand, as well as a piece of bacon that I was usually reluctant to eat! After going home and putting the things given by Liu, I went to the chief's house again, and told him what I had told the village chief again, and when I came back, I came back with a basket of vegetables.

"Miss is back!" Huimin, who was learning to read and write in the yard with her three children, saw Keke, and immediately stepped forward to take the vegetable basket that Keke took back from Li Changsheng's house.

"I'll take it in, Yuhan, take Sister Huimin to the study, and you will study in the study in the future." Keke said to Yuhan, and said to Huimin: "You just need to teach them well, you don't have to do things at home, but you haven't brought children, you can ask Sister-in-law Xie and Sister-in-law Qian more when you get along with children, and when teaching them, it's best to summarize more, make some records, and when teaching other children in the future, you can also have more experience, and the village school will start to build the school when we wait for the house at home to be built!" ”

"Miss, don't worry, I must have taught them with my heart, it's just that I'm afraid that the children are afraid of me when I go to the school like this!" After speaking, Hui Min's voice was obviously lowered.

"What's there to be afraid of, isn't it just a red mark on your face! Who will stare at your face from time to time, that is, others want to see it, and let people see it generously, and there will be no less meat when you see it, you yourself have to let go first, you don't care about yourself, will others still care? Looking at the red spot above Hui Min's left eye, the entire left eye epithelium was pink all the way to the corner of the eye. Everyone loves beauty, especially the young lady who used to be raised in the boudoir, and it is normal for people to be afraid of being pointed out by others.

"Keke is back." At this time, Cui Mama walked out of the house, and after leaving Keke, Qingwan accompanied Cui Mama, during which she didn't say anything about the Jade Realm, and said everything else, including Keke's plan to help more people gain a good reputation and make a lot of money.

"Mama, how are you resting?" Keke watched Grandma Cui change into clean clothes after washing, Xu was in a better mood, but now looking at her, she obviously feels a lot more energetic, but the deep eye sockets and towering cheekbones on both sides, the pointed chin has no flesh at all, it looks a little like a skull, and it is too thin, so she didn't tell the secret hidden in her heart, looking at Grandma Cui, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"It's been the best rest in the past few years!" In fact, Mama Cui didn't rest at all, and after taking a bath, she couldn't wait to pull Qingwan and let her tell her about their lives in the past few years, and cried several times during the period, but fortunately, Qingwan finally said that Keke woke up, and took her to Fengxiang Village to live, and then wiped away her tears and said that she must help Keke take care of the family.

Keke: "Mama is too thin, you can eat more in the future, I plan to take Mama back to those people to settle accounts, and then we have to settle the grievances we have suffered with them over the years." ”

Mama Cui: "Okay, I'll listen to Miss, eat more, wait for my body to take me back to those people to settle accounts." ”

In the kitchen, Qian Shi was busy with a few people who had already taken a bath and changed into clean clothes, among which Yu's mother and Deng's mother were washing and cutting vegetables, and the two sisters Chen Qing and Chen Hong continued to burn the fire for others to take a good bath, and they were all busy, "I never thought that there would be this day, I thought that I really couldn't survive it, so I hit my head and died." What he said was that Mrs. Yu was holding a kitchen knife and cutting quickly, the same age as Mama Cui, in her forties, she used to be a cook in a large family, because her aunt had a miscarriage, and finally checked and said that it was caused by eating unclean meals, and in the end, Mrs. Yu was just an innocent victim of the dispute between wives and concubines in a wealthy mansion.

"Who's to say it isn't? These are a lot of people who are still being sold around when they are old, and they are only guilty of living! After hearing this, Mrs. Deng wiped her red eyes and said.

"Sister Xie, Aunt Yu, Aunt Deng, don't be too sad, those things have passed before, Keke is a kind-hearted person, follow her, she will not treat you badly." Qian comforted the three of them and said, and then told everyone about his experience and chatted a little. After listening to this, several people believed that what Yang Yapo said was right, they were lucky, and they would be able to live a good life in the future.

"Yes! Everyone will be better off in the future. Mrs. Yu said.

The kitchen cooks the meal, and when the food is served, the fragrance wafts through the backyard and into everyone's heart. The tables and stools were borrowed by Qian from the village and placed in the backyard. The brand-new everyone smelled the fragrance wafting over, and then looked at the big pot of meat on the table, whether it was a man or a woman, they swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva, and when Qian brought the last dish, he saw that everyone was still standing, so he said: "Everyone sit down and eat, Miss Keke has said, this will be everyone's home in the future, and you don't have to be polite at home." "Just a word, home, I haven't heard this word for a long time, and this will be my home in the future, this word, than the meal on the table that is emitting a seductive fragrance can hook everyone's mind, thinking of this long-lost word, several people shed tears for a while.

Later, Qian Shi walked to the dining room again, and at this time, Qingwan also brought the food made separately in the kitchen to the table.

"Sister-in-law, come and sit down! I'm glad I hurt you today! Keke watched Qian come over and greeted him.

"Where is the fortunate, with Qiao Lingniang and Aunt Yu and Aunt Deng to help, I just wash a dish and help them deliver something, you taste it, this dish is fried by Aunt Yu today, does it suit your appetite?" Qian said, since Keke led a large group of people back, and told her life experience to herself, knowing that she is the only one who will be in charge of the family in the future, and she is grateful for her trust, but also has more apprehension and awe, worrying that there are more people in the family now, and you may not need yourself in the future, if you leave now, I really don't know what to do next? The awe is because the family is no longer the same as before, there are many more people in the family, and it is no longer as casual as before.

"Okay, let's try the food cooked by Mother Yu today!" As he spoke, he put a fried chicken nugget in his mouth, chewed it slowly, swallowed it and said: "This chicken nugget is really delicious, tender and delicious, not to mention, there is a little bit of sour and spicy taste, and appetizing, everyone will have a good taste in the future." ”

When he heard Keke say that he would have a good fortune in the future, Qian thought that he would let Aunt Yu cook in the future, and it would be even more redundant for him to stay here, sooner or later he would have to move out, it was impossible to stay here all the time, and there was no need to stay here now. I don't know how to stay, there are so many people in the house, "Keke, thanks to you for helping me during this time, I think there are more people in the family now............" I don't know how to say it later.

Looking at Qian's family, it is not difficult to know her thoughts, she must feel that the family has bought so many people back now, and she feels that she has no need to stay, "Sister-in-law, don't think about it, live here with peace of mind, in the future, we will still trouble you to do the meals and cleaning up at home, you are tired of doing these things alone, cook and let Yu's mother help you with it." Qiao Lingniang and Granny Deng just cook for themselves! Besides, in the future, I will have to help my sister-in-law make wine together, and my sister-in-law will live here with peace of mind, and I will give my sister-in-law 500 copper coins a month as wages in the future, and then we will raise my sister-in-law's salary when we make money, do you think this is good? ”

Seeing Keke say this, Qian also put his mind at ease and said: "No, how can you still ask for wages, this is a matter of food and housing, I still take my two children to eat and live for nothing, and I don't have the face to stay here if I ask for money." ”

"That's it, not just for my sister-in-law, but everyone else too. Eat it! Don't give Qian a chance to refuse, and said: "Sister-in-law, after the people invited tomorrow plant the five acres of land at home, and then invite some people to help repair the house, and the barren mountains and land that I bought also need people, and tomorrow I will invite people in the village after I am busy, and I will ask for someone in the village after I am busy, and the salary of 30 yuan a day per person will not be included, and the meals will go home to eat by yourself, and then come to work after eating, so that there will be less things at home!" "I thought that when the wasteland was cleared, I would plant all kinds of flowers on that land, and then extract essential oils and perfumes, and the mountains would naturally be turned into vineyards for wine.

Just do it, the construction of the house, the decoration of the shop, and the opening of the wasteland, together the entire Fengxiang Village began to be busy, everyone thought that this year is not only a good year, but also can earn money at the doorstep, and some people remember that Keke helped the children in the village to ask for teachers, and many people said that they did not want to work.

The cost of buying a shop, buying land, and buying people used a lot of money, and now it takes a lot of money to build a house, and there are many people in the family, and there are a lot of expenses every day, as well as the cost of the school, and the women's college in the later period also needs money, and the money in hand is less and less. Fortunately, the wine has been made, and it is only necessary to fire some bottles specially used for wine to sell, and the imitation of modern wine bottles has been drawn, and some things that still need to be fired at home are sent to the kiln where the porcelain at home was fired in the past.

In a blink of an eye, it has been ten days since the last time I went to the salt shop to inquire about the saline, so Liu Gang drove a carriage to the county seat, and after buying back the saline, he asked Li Gang to make some molds for handmade soap.
