14 The wind rises
At the beginning, a few taels of silver from selling ginseng and flowers, in addition to saving three taels of daily necessities, these days selling spicy skewers made a profit of four taels, and Tairan Commercial Bank paid a total of seven taels for four days. There were fourteen taels of silver in total, and it was gone in half a day.
Although the mule is expensive, it is indispensable, and now the four clay pots are in battle, relying on the manpower cart is really laborious, not to mention that the cart is still borrowed by a yellow lame.
drove the mule back to Tianxin Village, and the people in the village were all surprised, it was not uncommon to buy a board car, but it was rare for Ye Zhifeng to drive it.
Everyone knows the Ye family's, and they also have a little discussion about the Su family's independent portal, a woman's family has an idiot and a pockmarked face, how can she survive!
Who knew that during this time, I didn't see Ye Jingqing digging wild vegetables with a basket, not only that, but I also heard that they set up small stalls in the city to do business, and even bought radish and cabbage from the villagers.
Su Shi has this ability, which can be said to have stunned a group of people who watched the excitement, but now it's good, and he came back directly in a new car!
Someone stood on the edge of the ridge and asked, "Su Niangzi, what kind of business are you doing?" It's so easy to earn! ”
How can a living mule get nearly ten taels of silver, where did they get so much money?
At this time, Su's heart was still pounding, a dozen taels of silver was enough for their mother and wife for how long, and she spent it in one breath, how can this kind of gambling poor people stand it......
"Mrs. Su has to make a living, and she can carry us with her!"
A thin black man approached to touch the brand-new cart, grinned and showed a mouth full of yellow teeth, and winked at Su.
"It's just selling some spicy skewers and other food ......," Su laughed dryly.
The black thin man is a famous bachelor in the village, named Chen Yonglin. Fang Cai's blinking action was really frivolous, Su Shi didn't like it in his heart, and he didn't want to say more, so he asked Ye Zhifeng to drive into the yard.
"What delicious food makes money like this, give me a taste~" Chen Yonglin said and wanted to follow up the yard.
Ye Jingqing hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, and said, "I'm sorry, it's sold out today, if there is any surplus in Ming'er, I will give it to the neighbors to taste." ”
Chen Yonglin's eyes stared at Su Shi from afar, and he said with a smile: "What do you mean, others can't taste me?" ”
The strange tone of yin and yang made Su Shi unhappy for a while, and he frowned and said, "It's really sold out today......"
"Whew!" He grinned disdainfully: "Why can you earn ten taels of silver so quickly by eating, Mrs. Su don't bluff me!" ”
"Believe it or not!" Ye Jingqing didn't bother to take care of him, and snapped shut the small wooden door in the courtyard.
They were still busy making spicy skewers for dinner, and no one was at ease with this stubble, who would have expected that there would be rumors and rumors in the dark, and they would be running around.
Chen Yonglin is a well-known scoundrel in the village, and he was seen by many people when he stayed at the gate of the Su family. A few women were doing needlework and chatting about it, and now the Su family was alone, and the topic became ambiguous as soon as it was on the single.
In addition, many people have been talking about her making a fortune selling spicy skewers recently, spicy skewers are something that no one has ever eaten, and the money comes so quickly, not many people really believe in making a fortune by this.
These points came together, and the discussion changed its flavor in an instant.
A single woman, who goes out early and returns late every day, who knows what she is doing in the city! Not to mention that the two children have grown meat, they have cut new clothes, and now they are buying carts and mules, and maybe in some time they should buy land and build a new house......
"Maybe in a few days she will marry again!" A woman's mocking Nunu eyes were filled with a certain excitement.
"you, think it's beautiful with two oil bottles!" The other shook his head and pouted in disgust, then joined them in laughter.
For a while, Tianxin Village quietly became lively, and discussing other people's privacy can always make some people excited, and they can eat two more bowls with it.
Radish skewers and cabbage skewers have been very popular for a few days, and the taste is refreshing and greasy, suitable for all ages, and it is not a problem to eat three or five skewers in one go.
The stalls on Jinmen Street have successfully opened up sales channels and finally gained a firm foothold, and they can sell ten clay pots in a day, about four or five hundred strings!
This can make Su Shi very happy, and now the price of each string is four yuan, deducting the cost of ingredients and bamboo skewer stall fees, etc., and earning one or two a day.
One or two are a drop in the bucket for the Ye family, who were once a little rich, but the Su family, who has experienced embarrassment, is extremely satisfied, not hungry or freezing, more than anything else.
In addition, the orders placed by Tairan Commercial Bank are as high as 2,000 strings, and wealth is often accompanied by busyness, even if you don't care about the stalls at all, Su Shi can't be busy alone.
It seems that it is necessary to find a helper, Ye Jingqing touched her chin, with her and Ye Zhifeng's abilities, making spicy skewers would not help much, so they still watched the stall. The cleaning and stringing work can be left to someone else......
Su Shi nodded in agreement, the focus is on the candidate, naturally you have to be honest and trustworthy people, otherwise you have to be suspicious in your own kitchen, what can you do in the future.
It's just that now it's autumn, and there is a lot of farm work in the fields during the harvest season, and it's not easy for people to stay in the yard all day long to help, who doesn't have a few acres of land.
This matter was put aside for the time being, early this morning, the three of the Su family were about to set off in the car as before, and Sister-in-law Jiang suddenly came over in a hurry.
"Mrs. Su, wait," she shouted, speeding up her pace, "I have something to do, can you take a hitchhike to the city together?" ”
Su Shi was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Naturally, you can." ”
There are five clay pots neatly stacked on the board cart, and the vacancy space for Su Shi and Ye Jingqing is not large, but fortunately, the wooden board is strong enough to pull so many people.
Sister-in-law Jiang climbed up and sat firmly, her eyes scanned the clay pots, and asked, "Can you sell so much in one morning?" ”
Ye Jingqing sat behind and replied with a smile: "That's all, no matter how much it is, it won't be sold, what if Aunt Jiang goes to the city early in the morning to do errands?" ”
"Uh...... It's not a big deal, buy some supplies. Sister-in-law Jiang's eyes flickered slightly.
Ye Jingqing was slightly puzzled in her heart, how straightforward Sister-in-law Jiang was, why did she suddenly vomit?
Until she entered the city, Sister-in-law Jiang was not in a hurry to do things, and watched them open and sell spicy skewers left and right. When Su Shi was about to drive back to buy things, she hurriedly said to leave.
Ye Jingqing watched them leave, and faintly felt in her heart that Sister-in-law Jiang was afraid that something was coming.
Sure enough, after following the Su family to the market, Sister-in-law Jiang couldn't hold back on the way back.
"Mrs. Su, don't be busy yet, there is something you need to know."
So he talked about the rumors that were secretly circulating in the village, what the Su family was messing around in the city every day, and the yellow lame Chen Yonglin was not clear or something, it was ugly......
There are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, and although the Su family is not a widow, it is not bad.
"I think I know who you are, so I don't believe their mouths! I also saw your stall with my own eyes today, but I am full of confidence, and next time I bump into someone with a chewy tongue, I will not be able to spare them! The more sister-in-law Jiang spoke, the more angry she became.
Seeing that people finally have a hope, they begin to make something out of nothing, and some people are not good!
Su Shi was completely stunned, she couldn't imagine that outsiders looked at her like this, and she couldn't help but tremble when she imagined the scene of those people pointing and spitting around.
People want face, trees want bark, and their reputation is discredited, and what face do they have to gain a foothold in Tianxin Village?
After doing things absentmindedly all morning, not only did the spicy skewers fail to be completed as scheduled, but even delayed the delivery of meals to the children.
Seeing that noon had arrived, Ye Jingqing took Ye Zhifeng to sit in the teahouse and wait for a long time, and Su was late for the first time.
I was worried about what had happened, when I saw her hurrying and empty-handed.
"I forgot to be busy today, I didn't have time to make lunch, my mother was afraid that you would be in a hurry and wouldn't do it, let's go to the next restaurant." Su quickly packed up his things and walked out with them.
Ye Jingqing obviously felt that her expression was not natural, and she seemed to be trying her best to hide something, so she asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”
"What's wrong? We need to eat, so I'll order you a chicken to eat today. Su smiled casually.
Ye Jingqing didn't want to say much when she saw her, she only guessed if she bumped into those people from the Ye family on the road, so she was not happy.
I didn't pay attention to it until two days later, when Aunt Wang said that there were many soybeans left in the field, and she would pick them herself. Su Shi wanted to make a jar of soybean sauce, so he took the time to take Ye Jingqing for a trip, leaving Ye Zhifeng to wear skewers at home.
I didn't want to meet the old lady of the Ye family on the field road, it was really a narrow encounter.
"Tut-tut, it's a glamorous life!" The old lady glanced at Ye Jingqing's clean cloth clothes, as well as the obviously white and tender face, and snorted: "Dog mongrel!" ”
I'll go! If you don't agree with each other, you come up and scold people, what's wrong?
Ye Jingqing smiled: "I'm a dog mongrel, so aren't you a dog's ......?"
Because of the issue of seniority, she didn't say anything, but the old lady took a sip again, and even spit saliva directly on the Su family on the side.
"This cheap hoof who is not willing to be lonely water-based poplar, fortunately, my son will leave you from home, otherwise I don't know who I am raising children for! Our Ye family's ancestral grave should be emitting green smoke, shameless woman! ”
Su Shi's face turned pale, his palm tightly grasped the basket, and said, "Old lady! Although we have nothing to do with it, the origin of Zhifeng and Qinqing cannot be questioned, I, Su Qiao, am innocent, what you say is too much! ”
Ye Jingqing was taken aback, what do you mean, suspecting that she and Ye Zhifeng were not born by the Ye family? Only then did I understand the reason why Su Shi was frowning in the past two days, and why did the unwilling water-based poplar flower say this?
The old lady sneered: "Where do these two dog mongrels look like family reputation?" are all as black-hearted as you, and they haven't settled accounts with you for a few years in vain, don't think about affecting my Ye family's reputation again! My son can't be stupid! ”
These words can be described as heart-wrenching, and Su Shi's eyes were red with anger: "Shut up!" ”
She thinks that she has been working hard as a daughter-in-law, her son is stupid and blames herself more than anyone else, and she also admits her anger and abuse in the past, why doubt his origin? Why slander her innocence?!
