Chapter 214: Eye-catching
As Kou Xi said, her business was extremely hot for most of the first half month.
When she opened her eyes in the morning, she would ride her bicycle to the supply and marketing cooperative, and every day the salesperson there would pack the prepared duck intestines, duck gizzards, chicken gizzards, chicken hearts, and chicken livers for Kou Xi. Kou Xi bought some more vermicelli, dried tofu skin, and a piece of water tofu and rode his bicycle home.
When she got home, the tall lady had already picked vegetables from the vegetable field, but now the vegetables in the vegetable field at home can basically only be eaten by her own family, and she went to the neighbors to buy some coriander, lettuce and other things that are not available at home.
The business that Kou Xi thought of as 'a million profits' for Mrs. Gao was to sell steamed buns, but it was not ordinary steamed buns. Rather, it is a two-way noodle steamed bun made of black buckwheat and large gourd mixed with flour. People look at the yellow and black steamed buns very strangely, and they all come to ask what they are made of. Aunt Gao said that she didn't know, and the daughter-in-law at home only sold the steamed ones. In the evening, the old lady would buy a large watermelon, chill it in cold water, and cut it into small pieces to sell. For two cents a pound of watermelon, she sells it for a penny.
The two people have a very high degree of cooperation, and they start to set up a stall at 11 o'clock at noon, and close the stall at 1 o'clock to go home. In the afternoon, Niu Niu slept at home, and the two of them wore spicy skewers, steamed a pot of steamed buns, and made twenty pieces of cold skin.
Leaving home at four o'clock, with something to sell hanging on the handlebars. Niu Niu sat on the beam, and Gao Da Niang sat on the back seat. The three of them talked and laughed and then went over to set up a stall.
Huo An and Deputy Battalion Commander Gao went over to help after work, but there were too many things left at about half past six, so they solved it directly at the stall. The five of them talked and laughed and returned to the village.
In that small market, I saw two people in military uniforms coming to help every day, and they all knew that they were military dependents. After all, there is a division headquarters next to this place, and no one dares to offend anyone.
The vendors who opened shops around were also very enthusiastic when they saw Gao Daniang and Kou Xi. Therefore, Kou Xi relied on the right time, place and people, and the small business was prosperous.
They go out early and return late every day, and the people in the village are paying attention. First, Kou Xi is a new little daughter-in-law, who looks handsome and choks on her words. I never play with the daughters-in-law in the village, so I will naturally be treated as an alternative. The second is that after she came, she went in and out every day. I like to buy some vegetables in the neighborhood, which is very strange.
There was the one who was idle and had nothing to do, and followed Kou Xi out to see what she was doing. found that she actually set up a stall near the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, selling strange things. Even the old woman who didn't know a word from Gao Da Niang began to sell steamed buns and watermelons.
"Tsk, look at people, they really have the brains to make money!" It was time to eat at five o'clock again, and the villagers began another day of leisure entertainment.
Sitting at the gate of the courtyard with a rice bowl, he talked to his neighbors while eating. Some people even walk around the small village while eating with a bowl of rice. I saw an acquaintance and said hello: "Hey, eating!"
After a day's work at home, I finally had a breather. A few women sat under the wall of the village branch, holding rice bowls, you see what my family eats, I look at what your family eats.
"This bean in your house grows so well!" A woman with protruding teeth said to Wu Yulan in an exaggerated tone: "The beans are so big, they are so battery!"
"This is Gougou Huang, what you eat is beans!" Wu Yulan gave another chopstick to the woman: "Your old lady is willing to eat string beans!
The bucktooth girl complained angrily: "You have to listen to her for everything, she has to eat more if she likes, and no one else can eat." ”
"When you grow vegetables next year, you have nothing to grow yourself!" said a small, dark-skinned woman with a large birthmark on her nose.
"You taste my chili, this year's chili is spicy and spicy. Usually seven or eight chili peppers are a little spicy when I put six potatoes, but I put two of them to choke my child. She proudly showed off her chili peppers: "It's spicy, it's spicy, I choked on tears when I stir-fry!"
A few people were eating, and they saw Huo An and Deputy Battalion Commander Gao coming back from a distance on bicycles.
The four women, who were still chattering just now, suddenly closed their mouths as if their throats had been choked. The four pairs of eyes looked straight over there, and their necks involuntarily turned along the route they were riding.
Hoan was carrying Kou Xi behind his bike, and Kou Xi was holding his waist against his straight back. The very pleasant appearance of squinting eyes makes these women feel spicy.
"Oh, oh my mother, it's so shameless!" The woman with the birthmark on her nose took the lead in turning her face away: "I really can't stand it, what is this called?
The bucktoothed girl kept craned her neck and looked forward until she couldn't see it, then she turned her head and made a fuss: "Oh, mom, I have to pick it up every day! You have to be busy with the old men to do a job, what is this!"
Wu Yulan bowed her head and said nothing, and the fat daughter-in-law who sat opposite her and never spoke: "People have the ability to make money, if you can also make money, your old man has to go." Ah..... Your old lady has to pick you up!"
"That's picking me up?" the bucktooth girl sneered, "Then why did you take the money!"
"Hey, I'll tell you!" the fat woman lowered her voice, "I went to pick mushrooms that day, and I stopped by to take a look over there." Mrs. Gao sells watermelons!"
"Isn't she selling steamed buns? Why are she selling watermelons again?" The woman with the birthmark on her nose raised her eyebrows, and her voice involuntarily amplified: "My husband has always said that he wants to buy a watermelon for his child to eat, and no one has the time to go to the supply and marketing cooperative." I knew that she was selling, and I would let the old man go to her house to buy one later!"
"Oh mom, you can't afford her watermelon!" The fat woman grinned: "The watermelon of the supply and marketing cooperatives is two cents a pound, and the black-hearted old woman sells it for a penny!"
"One piece?" This time, even Wu Yulan was not calm: "Still talking about selling pieces?"
"It's not good!" the fat woman slapped her thigh excitedly, and the big cake in her hand fell to the ground without holding it.
She picked it up from the ground and pulled at the dirt on it disapprerovingly. took another bite and said vaguely while chewing: "Specially sold to the little boys in the winery, little girl eggs." She cut the watermelon into pieces and sold them for a penny! The watermelon rind was thrown into the basin after eating, and when she was done, she took it home and washed it, chopped the stuffing, and made dumplings!"
The fat woman painted as if she had seen it with her own eyes: "Let me tell you, the watermelon and egg-filled dumplings they made that day also sent a plate to the old Chu woman." I happened to go to her house to borrow some vinegar and let me meet it!"
She was afraid that Wu Yulan would not believe it: "What the old Chu woman told me, can it still be fake?"
