Xia Xiaoqin's leg healed quickly, and in a few days, the bruised position could no longer feel pain without pressing.

Today is the New Year, Xia Xiaoling and Xia Xiaoqin still set off at dawn, and Xia Xiaoling saw Zheng Kun standing at the door of the restaurant from a long distance.

Xia Xiaoling is already relieved when she looks at Zheng Kun now, because she is extremely sure that Zheng Kun likes Xia Xiaoqin.

The cute rabbit ear warmer on Xia Xiaoqin's head was stuffed by Zheng Kunqiang, and the blanket on her leg was also given by Zheng Kunqiang.

Xia Xiaoling, who had never been liked, thought bitterly in her heart.

"You're so punctual!" Zheng Kun walked to the tricycle and began to move the Chiba tofu on it.

After the launch of Chiba Tofu, it was immediately well received, and now the daily income of "Xiangmanen" has increased several times, and the quantity of Chiba Tofu has also tripled.

However, there is not much growth in the guest house, and there is only one more plate of tofu a day than before.

What Xia Xiaoqin didn't know was that people who had eaten Chiba tofu in the guest house would come to "Xiangmanyuan" again, first, to take care of the business of the relatives of the county party secretary, and secondly, the "Fumanguo" launched by Xiangmanyuan was more delicious than what was made in the guest house!

"Xiaoqin, add one more board tomorrow, it's time for the New Year, there are many people to entertain." Zheng Lan said with a smile.

"Okay!" Xia Xiaoqin smiled sweetly, "Brother Kun, who moves tofu, is going to work hard again!" ”

"But I can't tire him, he'll leave today."

Of course, Xia Xiaoqin knew that it was impossible for the son of the county party secretary to work as a helper in a restaurant all the time. Still, she quipped, "What? Brother Kun is going to change jobs? ”

"I'm going back to the capital." Zheng Kun said in a muffled voice, and quickly added, "I may not be able to come back until the summer vacation!" ”

"Okay, I'll move the tofu then." Xia Xiaoqin smiled heartlessly.

Zheng Kun threw Xia Xiaoqin a roll of his eyes, and a nameless fire burst out in his heart.

He didn't understand why he was standing at the door waiting for Xia Xiaoqin in the cold wind early in the morning, and he didn't know why he was so angry after not seeing Xia Xiaoqin's lost expression.

"I'm not going to move tofu!" Zheng Kun threw down such a sentence and turned around and went into the back kitchen.

Zheng Lan, who has a lot of experience, knows that Zheng Kun is a little careful in her heart, she also likes Xia Xiaoqin very much, and she has no views in her heart.

However, these two people are still young, and Xia Xiaoqin looks unenlightened, although Zheng Lan sees it in her eyes, she doesn't match them.

Zheng Lan saw Xia Xiaoqin's inexplicable face, and said with a smile: "Xiaokun doesn't want to go back to the capital, he's angry." ”

Xia Xiaoling's eyes flashed, and she took out the bacon prepared in advance from the body of the tricycle.

Xia Xiaoqin slapped her head, and was interrupted by Zheng Kun, almost forgetting the bacon.

"Aunt Lan, today is the New Year, this is my gift to you!"

"Is this bacon?"

"Yes, bacon! Aunt Lan, have you eaten it? I see that our restaurant here doesn't have any stores that sell this. ”

"Well, we don't like it very much here, but I like it. Thank you for the Boxing Rite. Zheng Lan likes Xia Xiaoqin to come to trouble, although she is mature and not like an ordinary little girl, but as the "pillar" of the family, innocence is indeed not suitable for her.

Xia Xiaoqin left from the "Xiangmanyuan" and hurried to the guest house.

Li Jianjun still looked smiling, and said: "A few tables of dishes at noon are waiting for your Chiba tofu, if you come later, I will be in a hurry!" ”

Li Jianjun is extremely kind every time he sees Xia Xiaoqin, and Xia Xiaoqin is also willing to deal with him.

Xia Xiaoqin took out the rest of the bacon from the body of the tricycle, handed it to Li Jianjun with both hands, and said, "Uncle Li, today is Xiaonian, this is my gift to you, and my grandmother smoked it herself." ”

Li Jianjun accepted it after two shirking, he was in charge of the back kitchen, and Xia Xiaoqin didn't need Xia Xiaoqin to teach him how to make bacon.

Leaving from the guest house, Xia Xiaoqin asked Xia Xiaoling to take her to Xiangyang Street.

Xiangyang Street is a comprehensive market in Anxian County, and when Xia Xiaoling heard it, she asked, "Do you want to buy New Year's goods?" ”

"Yes, Sister Xiaoling, what New Year's goods do you want to buy? Let's buy it together today. ”

A trace of loneliness flashed on Xia Xiaoling's face, where does her family have any money to do New Year goods, the whole family is waiting for the tofu money she earns, 5 yuan, can buy several pounds of meat, so that when the Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty, her family can also eat dumplings.

Her youngest sister likes dumplings the most, and she herself hasn't tasted meat for a long time, and every time the family eats meat, they avoid her.

"Xiaoqin, can I advance 1 yuan first? I...... I want to cut some meat. ”

"Did you cut meat today? If you cut the meat and prepare to eat it in the Chinese New Year's Eve, it is better to cut it again on the 26th day and cut the stewed meat. ”

Xia Xiaoling was surprised, she did see the bacon hanging in the yard of Xia Lao'er's house in the morning, but she didn't expect that one of the strings would be her own.

"That'...... Then don't do it yet. Xia Xiaoling said in a whisper.

Xia Xiaoqin knew that Xia Xiaoling's status in the family was not high, her grandfather was patriarchal, and her mother gave birth to four daughters before giving birth to a son. Xia Xiaoling, as the boss of her family, is usually called as an old scalper, working in the field and cooking housework, and none of them can run away.

She was very tanned by the sun, and because of her perennial work and lack of food, she was thin and small.

Xia Xiaoling is honest and responsible, and she is diligent in her work, Xia Xiaoqin wants to help her.

"Sister Xiaoling, what are your plans after the year?"

"I'll get married." Xia Xiaoling was a little lost. Her family's requirements are too high, and if she doesn't lower her requirements, she won't be able to get married at all.

What if you get married?

How good can the in-laws treat the daughter-in-law who exchanged the bride price for her daughter-in-law?

Although Xia Xiaoling is illiterate, her heart is very transparent, and for her, getting married is not to get rid of the sea of suffering, but to work in a different place.

Xia Xiaoqin saw Xia Xiaoling's reaction in her eyes, she thought of her plans after the New Year, and thought that she had seen Xia Xiaoling through, so she said: "Sister Xiaoling, I still need help after the New Year, do you want to come to my house to work?" I'll pay you a salary, 10 yuan a month! ”

"10 bucks?!" Xia Xiaoling didn't know a single word, she didn't look good, she couldn't find a suitable job in the county, and now she suddenly heard that there was a job with a monthly salary of 10 yuan, and the whole person was shocked.

It's just that the family farms, and the whole family adds up, and there is no balance of 10 yuan a month, and now she can earn 10 yuan for the family, can the family's life be better.

"Well, you can go back and discuss with your family, if they are not in a hurry to marry you off, come to my house to help first. However, it can be hard. ”

Xia Xiaoling is not afraid of hard work, she can water the ground at home in the summer, and she has to break the ice and wash clothes in winter, she is willing to exchange hard work for money!

On the way back to Xiajia Village, Xia Xiaoling rode the tricycle very steadily, in Xia Xiaoling's heart, she already regarded Xia Xiaoqin as her boss, she must win this job, she needs money!

Xia Xiaoqin is thinking about her tofu career after the year, and she also needs money!
