Chapter 181: Arrangement
In the next ten days, Du Jinning completed the homework left by Guan Lehe every day, went to the teahouse for a walk, and concentrated on writing scripts at home.
She practices handwriting every day, and now she writes quickly and well. By the time of the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, she had written seven or eight volumes of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Eight Steps of the Heavenly Dragon". In addition, she also wrote several volumes of "The Condor Heroes".
In addition to doing this, she spends half an hour teaching her sisters to read and write every day at noon when they are resting.
Du Yuncheng is recognized as a smart person, he has never forgotten his original body, and his sisters are naturally not stupid, and his memory is stronger than that of ordinary people. Before teaching literacy, Du Jinning deliberately talked about the benefits of literacy, and for this reason, the three sisters learned words very seriously. In half a month, half of the "Three Character Classic" can be read and written.
Du Jinning was pleasantly surprised to find that Du Fanghui, who has always been taciturn and has a very low sense of existence, also has quite a lot of unforgettable qualifications. Teach her a passage twice, and she will be able to memorize it. I tested her again the next day, and I still remember it. Learning to write is also faster than Du Fangfei and Du Fanghui.
"Mother, it's not good for my sisters to do this kind of labor all the time, it's not decent, it's hard. Originally, I heard Aunt Xu say that she was good at embroidery, but when she got older, she cried so much that her eyes couldn't do it. Why don't we ask Aunt Xu to teach my sisters embroidery? Even if we don't rely on embroidery to support our family, we have such a hand in embroidery, and when we get married in the future, we can earn our own money, and we don't have to look too much at the face of our in-laws. ”
Du Jinning was worried that Chen would think too much, and after speaking, he explained: "This craft of making dried tofu and tea eggs, we must let my sisters take it to get married." But these crafts can't be done by themselves in the house alone, and they have to pass them on to their in-laws, which is not their own ability. When the in-laws learn this craft, no matter how well they are treated, we will be helpless. But with a hand of embroidery, it is different, this thing can not be learned in a short period of time. Even if the money earned is not kept for home use, it will be handed over to the public middle school, which is also a credit to my sister. If the mother-in-law wants to show them their faces, she has to weigh them carefully. ”
"Brother Ning, it's really a blessing for your sisters to have you." Chen sighed, who is not big for the sake of the small? Prefer their family to the opposite. The youngest one, for the sake of the three sisters, is really heartbreaking.
"I wouldn't have survived without my sisters taking care of me."
Chen touched Du Jinning's head and responded to her previous words: "I want to do it too, but the Xu family can't do anything with our family, let's invite your Aunt Xu like this again, can she be happy?" Besides, your three sisters have all gone to learn embroidery, who will make these dried tofu and tea eggs? The amount of daily demand at the teahouse is quite large, and I can't do it alone. ”
Although Du Jinning and they opened two more teahouses in one go, because the content of the story is different, the "Eight Steps of the Heavenly Dragon" taught by the new teahouse is not available in the old teahouse, and the time is just staggered, and the tea guests go to listen to it here and there, so the opening of the two new teahouses is just to relieve the pressure of the tea guests queuing, and the seats in the teahouse are always full, and there are no vacancies at all. As soon as the business of the teahouse was booming, there was a great demand for dried tofu and tea eggs. Chen's work from morning to night, and they can only barely supply it, which is because of the little effort it takes to boil eggs and tea eggs, otherwise they can't be busy at all.
"Please." Du Jinning said, "When I raise enough money, I still want to go to the provincial capital to open a teahouse, and the demand for dried tofu and tea eggs will be greater at that time, and these jobs will have to be hired sooner or later." The people who were invited only helped to grind the soy milk to make the tofu, which reduced most of the processes. You and your sisters only need to spare an hour a day to marinate the dried bean curd and eggs. ”
Chen hesitated: "There are many people coming and going at home, and our method of making dried tofu and tea eggs will be seen sooner or later." ”
"Then you just wrap the dried tofu out and make it for others, and we'll just take care of the marinade." Du Jinning said.
Chen shook his head: "This is not appropriate. If others learn to make dried tofu, it is not far from being able to make braised tofu. After all, everyone knows that we use spices to marinate, and they buy some spices and go back to try them a few more times, and the marinated ones are almost the same. ”
In fact, Du Jinning really doesn't take this braised tofu technology very seriously. After all, she knows too many things, and she just takes out another after learning one. And when she came up with these techniques, she was mentally prepared, after all, the ability of Chinese people to copycat is too strong, no matter how tightly you cover it, as long as it takes a long time, the method will always be learned.
But she couldn't tell Chen about this. After all, she knows that one recipe is already very good, enough for the family to pass on from generation to generation, if she takes a few more recipes out, not to mention the Chen family, even Guan Lehe will wonder where she is.
"What then?" She asked.
Chen sighed: "If your eldest sister and the Xu family's family affair can be successful, we won't have to worry about this matter." Teach you how to make dried tofu, Aunt Xu, and she will provide us with dried tofu. Our two families are in-laws, one is prosperous and the other is lost, and they will not pass on the recipe everywhere. ”
Du Jinning was speechless.
Now the Chen family is thinking about how to promote the Xu family's family business. Du Fangfei was already scared by her thoughts, and if it was not necessary, she would never step out of the room.
"Mother, the twisted melon is not sweet, and there is more than one good man in the world, Xu Chengyuan. If the eldest sister doesn't want to, don't force her. Although Du Jinning thinks that the Xu family is good, he disapproves of Chen's approach.
is also Du Fangfei's good temperament, if she is replaced, she will have to quarrel with the old lady who is forced to marry.
"Okay, I don't care." Chen couldn't persuade him, and when he heard Du Jinning say this, he was also discouraged.
"When Aunt Xu comes to get dried tofu tomorrow, you can mention to her about learning embroidery. If she doesn't agree and can't learn embroidery, then she doesn't have to ask someone to do it; She agrees, and you ask her if she'd like to help us make dried tofu. Du Jinning said.
"Would you like to ask her to make dried tofu?" Chen hesitated.
"Anyway, if you have to invite someone, it's better to ask Aunt Xu. The character of the two of them is very good, stronger than those who don't know the details. Du Jinning said, "Besides, you still ask someone to teach your sisters embroidery, you can't take advantage of others and don't return one or two, right?" ”
"We didn't take advantage of her, didn't we give money?" Chen muttered, "Her eyes are no longer good, and she can't embroider anymore, even if your sister learns to do it to her, it won't have any effect on her." ”
After speaking, she thought about it, but also recognized what Du Jinning said: "What you said is right, the Xu family's character is good, rather than letting others do it, it is better to let her do it." ”
"We gave her this deal, and it's no problem to learn embroidery."
"Okay, so be it." Chan finalized the matter.
