Chapter 1346: General, I'll Help You Feed Your Family (42)
Qian Qian knew that the plasterer was a conscientious suggestion, and if her broken house did not paste the roof, it would indeed be very troublesome in winter, so she reluctantly added money and pasted the windows and roof of the bedroom neatly, as for the remaining two rooms...... Let's talk about it when we have money!
Pasted over the roof, Qian Qian's property bottomed out, fortunately, Mama Liu took care of her, her daily income continued, and after saving enough money again, Qian Qian still couldn't use it to do small business, she found a cotton player for the first time and made a thick bedding for herself. It's almost winter, and everything else is easy to say, without covering, she is really sad this winter.
After paying the money to the cotton, Qian Qian returned to poverty again, and 7788 sighed loudly: "It's difficult for you to even support yourself, when will you get rich!" ”
"No way." Qian Qian also sighed heartily: "It's about to be winter, so I have to find a way to survive first." There are still a lot of places to spend money, there are no cotton clothes, and the half-collapsed soil kang has not been repaired, and I really can't afford to take care of anything else now. ”
"I know." 7788 seriously nodded at the little brain melon: "Let's make a padded jacket for the next money!" You always have to have cotton clothes in winter, I have the meteorological data in this place, and it is quite cold in winter. ”
"Got it." Qian Qian nodded: "I need to make more money, and I need to store grain." This year's harvest is bumper, and the grain is cheap after the autumn harvest, but I estimate that the price will rise around the end of the year, and I don't know how to do next year, if it is not a good year, I am afraid that the price of grain will go up a lot, I have no land, no guaranteed rations, so I have to prepare early. I really don't know how the protagonists of the farming texts who can make a fortune by making bean sprouts and buying tofu do it, I've worked hard, but I'm still very poor, and I can't even support myself. ”
"People have the aura of the protagonist, let's not compare with others." 7788 replied: "Just do as you say, let's do a small business, and when you have extra money, you can store grain first." ”
"Fortunately, there was no news after Xue Pinggui left." Qian Qian said: "I don't need to keep him all the time. ”
"I've seen him twice on the surveillance," 7788 replied immediately, "In the city, once in Jinshuifang, once near Qianjinfang, once quite close to you, all in activities, I think since I can run around the street, it means that there is nothing bad about the state, so I didn't notify you." But even if he comes again, you don't need to give him too much food, just give him a stutter to ensure that he doesn't starve to death. Your hard-earned money is still guaranteed to survive on your own. ”
Hey? It turns out that Xue Pinggui is in the city? Qian Qian thought with some curiosity, and he didn't know what the male protagonist lived on, last time he said he had no money, but Qian Qian didn't believe it, he was better dressed than her, and he still wore jade ornaments on his head, which was not at all the same as the down-and-out appearance described in the play.
But as a trick, what if she knows that the male protagonist is a little tired? It's none of her business, she just does her duty. If Xue Pinggui is really down, she will give her food, isn't it better to be down, she is happy to be idle, she just needs to find a chance to let Xue Pinggui and Wang Baochuan meet!
But...... Is it so easy to see the young lady of the Prime Minister's family?! Qian Qian was a little skeptical. Although in this plane derived from the drama, it is common for the ladies of the family to go out shopping, and the norms of the nobles are not as strict as those in the ordinary ancient plane, but the ladies also have to take the maids and women to hug each other when they go out, where can they go up casually to talk.
At the end of October, Qian Qian relied on hard work to make cotton clothes, and now she can't go into the city early in the morning to sell firewood, because she has to accumulate more firewood in winter, so the harvest of going up the mountain is basically piled up in the yard by her. The weather is already cold, and the door with a large crack can not be repaired for the time being, but the kang needs to be rebuilt, otherwise there will be no heating facilities in winter, and it will be really sad.
Fortunately, Qian Qian, who has lived for a few lifetimes, is very good at being a person, and usually maintains a good relationship with the servants who can be contacted in the Taishi Mansion.
At the end of October, the grandmother of the Taishi Mansion celebrated her birthday, and invited a lot of young ladies and ladies of the family to come over, and of course the two daughters of Prime Minister Wang Cheng who had not yet married would come. This little chef hired outside is very sensible, and has good cooking skills, especially good at making dim sum, which is just right for serving young ladies and wives, so she asked Mama Liu to find Qian Qian as soon as possible.
This kind of work is a banquet, Qian Qian is naturally happy, the bounty is high, and the work is not tiring, the birthday banquet is held for two days in a row, including food and accommodation, where to find such a good thing, she is worried that she has no money to hire someone to repair the kang!
Mama Liu, who is already very familiar with Qian Qian, told Qian Qian: "Jiu Niang, this time on the birthday of the young grandmother, please invite a lot of ladies and young ladies to come over, the dim sum should be uninterrupted for twelve hours, the big kitchen does not turn off the fire, you can take out all your skills, serve them well, and the dim sum should be especially careful, you remember." ”
"Mama don't worry," Qian Qian smiled and agreed, "I know what you mean." Many ladies just use some at will on the dinner, after all, those sea and land delicacies, nothing special, but on weekdays I like to gather together to drink tea and use some new dim sum. ”
"Exactly!" Mama Liu clapped her hands happily: "I knew that Jiuniang was transparent!" Dim sum is not new enough, but the face of our Taishi Mansion, you are good at doing things, and you naturally have your benefits. In the kitchen, Mama Qin has already explained, what the hired cooks want to use, they are all arbitrary, just talk to the kitchen manager, you have to use your skills well. ”
"It's not hard." Qian Qian smiled and nodded: "It's just that if I really want to be new, I need to use some rare materials that people can't afford in daily life, I write a list, and bother Mama Lao to take it to Mama Qin, see if it's okay." ”
"Jiu Niang, are you still literate?" Mama Liu was slightly shocked: "I can't see it, you can really do a lot, your grandmother taught you to cook, and even made you literate?" ”
"In the past, grandmother served nobles," Qian Qian began to stare at and talk nonsense again: "The daily food and drink in front of the old lady is to write the seasonal vegetables and vegetables into water cards and eat them in turn. ”
"Oops!" Mama Liu slapped her hands exaggeratedly: "The cook raised in this way will be served in the palace!" Your father and mother are willing to buy you, and they are really confused. You wait, I'll go and find you a pen and paper, what strange ingredients are you going to use to write in advance, Mama Qin has seen it, if you can, let you buy it. ”
