Chapter 49 Unwillingness
Huang Liuniang heard that what her daughter said was reasonable, so she slowly stopped crying, but she still choked up and said: "I just wasn't reconciled, I used to bully me every day, and now our family's craftsmanship, why don't they give anything and take it away for nothing?" ”
Qingbao didn't want to, but Xia Shouping had already agreed, did they still have a choice?
The mother and daughter wiped their eyes and tears here, but from the second pillar of their house, there was the sound of boys laughing and playing, which was particularly harsh to Huang Liuniang's ears.
Qingbao asked Huang Liuniang: "Mother, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" I'm going to make some food for me. ”
Huang Liuniang hugged Qingbao and didn't let go, wiped her tears with relief: "It's still my daughter's intimateness, I know if I have eaten it?" What's the use of a son? I don't know anyone at all! ”
It seems that Huang Liuniang has a lot of opinions about the four pillars and the big tiger tethering so lively.
Qingbao persuaded her: "Since they are here, mother, you can look at it, give them a smile every day, and remember you well, if you keep a straight face every day, people will learn the method of making sugar, and you will have to be scolded behind your back." ”
Seeing that her daughter was so sensible, Huang Liuniang listened to her daughter's words and gradually stopped crying.
Qingbao comforted Huang Liuniang and came to the kitchen.
She cooked tonight, but now that two people have been added, this meal will definitely not be enough.
Qingbao brought a basin, grabbed a few handfuls of mixed noodles, and baked a few mixed noodles cakes.
When Xia Shouping came back, he was just in time for Qingbao to put the table to eat.
The big tiger is one year older than the second pillar, thirteen this year, and the plug is the same age as the second pillar, and he is twelve this year.
As the saying goes, "half the size of the child, eat the poor old man", the six cakes that Qing Bao branded were eaten up by these two guys in a short time, and they also drank two bowls of porridge for each person.
Xia Shouping saw his nephews eating round bellies one by one, and smiled very happily.
And Huang Liuniang, who only drank a bowl of porridge, didn't want to see them, so she went back to her room early to rest.
After eating, Xia Shouping brought fruit to his two nephews for them to eat, and then rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find the bedding for the nephews to spread, and after the nephews were settled, he went back to the room.
Qingbao packed up and went back to the room to rest.
Lying in the quilt, Qingbao tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Maybe in Xia Shouping's eyes, his family is rich, and it is right to take the eldest brother and the fourth brother along, after all, they are brothers of the same mother.
But while he was a good brother, he forgot that he still had a wife and children.
When he did what he took for granted, he forgot to ask his wife and children for their opinions.
Qingbao didn't know if Xia Shouping was machismo, or in his heart, his wife and children were not as important as brothers.
Qingbao thought as he turned the wooden bracelet on his wrist and stayed awake for a long time.
It was almost midnight before Qing Bao took off the peach bracelet and threw it into the box.
From then on, she would rather be close to the four pillars than to this father who doesn't care about his wife and children!
From the next day, Dahu and Lianzi began to learn sugar making with Xia Shouping.
In front of these two nephews, Xia Shouping taught each other with all his heart, and explained and demonstrated very carefully.
Huang Liuniang didn't bother to look at them, said that she was not feeling well, and went back to her room to rest.
Qingbao was also displeased, took half a basket of sugar, and went to Fang's house to pick up the reply letter for evening cigarettes.
Coming to the back door of Yue Yue's house again, Qingbao only shouted a few times, and the evening smoke came out.
Fortunately, this time she came out on her own.
After handing over the letter smoothly, Qingbao quickly left the Fang Mansion.
After walking around the street for a while, the remaining sugar was quickly sold, and Qingbao had to go home.
Back at home, Dr. Lin was talking to Xia Shouping, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.
Looking for an opportunity, Qingbao gave the letter to Dr. Lin, who thanked him again and again and left.
Dahu and Lianzi did not live in Qingbao's house for a long time, and the sugar boiling technology is actually very simple, it mainly depends on the heat problem when boiling.
After staying for four or five days, the big tiger and the tether who had learned the craft were excited and excited, and were eager to go home to show off and help the family get rich.
On the third day after they left, the eldest uncle and the fourth uncle came to the city to sell sugar.
Since no one has been selling sugar on the streets for a long time, the business of the uncle and the fourth uncle is very good, and the sugar is sold out in more than half a day.
After selling the candy, the brothers made an appointment to buy something and came to the third brother's house together.
All they could buy was fruit snacks and the like, but for Huang Liuniang and Xia Shouping, who had always suffered losses, this was the first time they had seen their return money.
The brothers kept saying words of gratitude, which made Huang Liuniang and Xia Shouping flattered, and even Huang Liuniang, who had never been waiting to see the Xia family, rarely showed a smile.
To be honest, seeing that they could support themselves, Qingbao was relieved.
Looking at the smiling brothers, Qingbao finally understood a truth, sometimes, being generous, may have unexpected gains! If you can take your poor relatives to a well-off life, then your family's problems will be solved immediately.
Remembering that Ding Liu asked them to make more candy a few days ago, and then in line with the idea of sending the Buddha to the west, Qingbao told them that the candy they made could be wholesaled with her family, so that they didn't have to sell it along the street, and it also saved a person's labor, but the price was cheaper.
As soon as the Xia brothers heard that the wholesale was cheaper, they seemed to be a little reluctant, Qingbao was patient and carefully explained the pros and cons to them, until she said it very clearly, and the Xia brothers nodded with satisfaction and agreed.
Qingbao and they set a date, and in six days it will be the day when Ding Liu will come to collect sugar, so that they can hurry up as soon as possible, and send a batch in six days.
The Xia brothers agreed to go.
Sure enough, on the sixth day, early in the morning, the Xia family brothers came in a carriage, and the cart was full of sugar, which was a little more than what the Qingbao family had done in ten days.
Ding Liu's sugar was not sold in the city at all, but was directly pulled to the capital.
In the prosperous capital at the foot of the Son of Heaven, Ding Liu's candy is always in short supply, even if he repeatedly raises the price, many people come to buy, you know, the most important thing in the capital is the rich.
Originally, he was worried about the supply of goods, but now that he saw that there were two more sugar sellers, he was naturally very happy, and according to the price of Qingbao's family, he immediately pulled the cart of sugar away, and it was also paid in cash.
Suddenly got six or seven taels of silver in their hands, Xia Shouye and Xia Shouquan's eyes were wet.
In the past, in addition to farming, the two of them were just working part-time jobs in the city, earning dozens of dollars a day, barely making ends meet, but now they have made so much money at once, and the brothers feel like they are dreaming.
"Third brother, brother and sister, thank you, thank you, now our family has the money to build a house, and the children can talk about their family......" The brothers thanked the third brother and the third brother and sister who brought them rich.
Xia Shouping smiled embarrassedly: "What's the thanks, who called us brothers!" ”
Huang Liuniang also said: "Big brother and fourth brother, don't be so polite, we are all a family, and if we have money, we naturally have to earn it together." "I forgot who cried to death in the first place.
The Xia brothers went home excitedly with the silver, and the next time they came to deliver sugar, not only did they come, but the Yang family and the Zhang family also came.
The Yang family and the Zhang family cooperated for the first time in their lives, buying a hairpin for Huang Liuniang, two beautiful beaded flowers for Qingbao, and a piece of cloth for the Xia family father and son.
This time, not only Huang Liuniang was flattered, but even Qingbao was also flattered.
Yang looked like all the grievances were left with family affection, and said with a smile: "Brother and sister, you have to accept this thing, this is a thank you gift from me and my fourth brother and sister." In the past, I was poor, and I had to fight for a mouthful of porridge, but now that I have money, we don't have to fight for anything, brother and sister, you have a lot of adults, don't remember the past. ”
Zhang also said: "Third sister-in-law, thank you for teaching us this method of making money, not to mention anything else, if they marry a good daughter-in-law in the future, you will be the first hero of our Lao Xia family." ”
Huang Liuniang, who has always been bullied, couldn't find the north happily after listening to the flattering words of the concubines, not only did the old grudges disappear, but laughed with them.
In this way, the three brothers of the Xia family started a family-style sugar industry, and every ten days, they wholesaled several truckloads of sugar.
Soon, the pockets of the three brothers bulged.
The Yang and Zhang families never bothered Huang Liuniang again, but every time they came to deliver sugar, they would bring something to Huang Liuniang, sometimes wild vegetables in the field, sometimes delicious snacks, and sometimes fresh fruits...... Although Huang Liuniang shouted that she didn't need them to bring anything, she was really happy in her heart.
The family made money, and Qingbao shared more money.
Huang Liuniang asked Qingbao why he had to save money at such a young age in a casual chat, and Qingbao replied unintentionally, "Daddy can't be trusted, so he has to plan for himself", since then, Huang Liuniang has never felt sorry for the money, but when the money is in hand, he immediately gives 30% of the profit to his daughter.
It seems that she has tasted enough of the bitter fruits brought by Xia Shouping, and she doesn't want her daughter to repeat her mistakes again.
Yue Yue knew that Qingbao's family had four friends who could play with him, and he would run to Qingbao's house to play every once in a while. Occasionally, he complained to Qingbao that he was too tired to practice martial arts, that the master was too strict, and that he hated which classmate he hated.
With such a student as Yue Yue dangling in front of him all day long, Sizhu's idea of wanting to study has never been put down. After seeing that the money he earned from selling sugar was enough to pay for his tuition, he followed Huang Liuniang every day, chanting and muttering to Huang Liuniang: "I want to study, I want to study, I want to study......
Huang Liuniang was hard-hearted and didn't agree.
The mood has something to say: In the next few chapters, Qingbao should grow up a little bit~ The little fat man should secretly feel affection~
