Chapter Seventy-Five: This pot space is not back
Li Wanyun wanted to stay at home for one night, but Ji Nuan said that he might not be able to do it in the past few years, the family was too busy, and the whole family worked together and felt that there was not enough manpower. Ji Ruifeng asked his niece to bring him twenty catties of dried tofu and twenty catties of bean sprouts tomorrow morning. Their family is a daughter-in-law in the morning, the eldest and third make tofu, and he and the second Ji Liansheng are responsible for selling tofu.
"Okay, in the future, the second grandmother and the second uncle will take the green beans to my house, and I will help you make bean sprouts, one pound of green beans can produce six catties of bean sprouts, and this business is more profitable than selling tofu."
Ji Zheng's insisted on giving money according to the wholesale price, and couldn't take advantage of his nephew's family, Li Wanyun also felt that it should be the same as others, their family now earns at least half a tael of silver a day by making water tofu, and she has earned enough money to build a house during this time, and she is content.
In the end, Ji Nuan thought of a compromise method, let the two families take green beans, and she came to give birth to bean sprouts, and the bean sprouts were divided into three catties per family in half.
Ji Baojin thought that there must be a knack for making tofu, others can't imitate it, there should be no difficulty in raw bean sprouts, and let the old woman get it when he goes home, a pound of green beans is only four yuan, and the number of bean sprouts is six times that of giving birth, and selling five catties of green bean sprouts a day can still earn dozens of dollars.
When he returned home after a full meal, Ji Liu ignored him, Ji Baojin took off his shoes and leaned on the quilt for a long time: "My wife ......"
"Don't talk to me, you can now, two of the three sons are rich, and they will only live more comfortably without us, maybe those two white-eyed wolves can marry you an eighteen-year-old yellow flower girl back, it's much better than the little son who guards my old wife and can't make money if he's not in good health." The more Ji Liu thought about it, the more angry she became, although she was a stepmother who was more selfish, she had not eaten and clothed her two stepsons over the years, and she had not poisoned them, what else did she want!
I'm a lot older, and I don't care about things between men and women anymore, and I'm greedy to see my two sons live so well. But he knows that his wife's two sons will not pull their own family to do business together, the accumulated contradictions are not so easy to resolve, he can understand that a woman must have a gap with her mother as a stepmother, and he doesn't blame the sons' attitude now, in the final analysis, he has no ability, if he also has a lot of silver, maybe the old woman and son will not make trouble.
"I want to tell you something serious, why is it still on the head of the eighteen-year-old yellow flower girl, let me tell you, today Nuan Nuan said that the girl said, a pound of green beans can produce six pounds of bean sprouts, I think this should not be difficult to get, let's try."
Ji Liu has always been good at settling accounts, and silently calculated in his heart that if he sells 100 catties of bean sprouts every day, he can make dozens of dollars: "I'll go and weigh the green beans and soak it for ten catties first." ”
"It's so much at once, but it seems to be quite easy to listen to what the girl said." Ji Baojin took the oil lamp, Ji Liu went to the warehouse with the basin, got a pot of green beans and went back to soak it, Ji Liu found a bamboo basket, spread a clean cloth in it, and put the green beans in after two hours of preparation.
"Six days later, just in time for the New Year, you drive to Jinquan County to sell a few times, and the money for the New Year will come out."
"Does this take six days to get better? How do I listen to Nuan Nuan's meaning to soak beans tonight, and it will be fine tomorrow! ”
Ji Liu pursed his lips disdainfully: "That girl is weird, let me tell you, eighty percent of her body is stained with unclean things, don't look at the old family now, with that girl here, sooner or later there will be an unlucky day." ”
"Don't say this when you go out, it's not good to be heard, and we won't be able to benefit if their brothers can't live a good life."
Not to mention this stubble, Liu is not angry: "They are doing well now, one family is doing business and hiring people, and a big house is lived, have you borrowed it?" ”
Just because of your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they won't care about the affairs of the old mansion: "They have just turned over, and when the old family and children marry their daughters-in-law, the second family will take care of us if they gain a firm foothold in the crescent ditch." ”
"If you want to take care of it, it's just you, let me tell you that this year's New Year, their brothers want silver, a family of two, this is just the New Year's filial piety money, not a substitute for pension money, if they don't give it to me, they will go to the door."
"In that case, you have to go back to your parents' house for the New Year, and the matter of asking for silver will be postponed for two years, don't we have some money left in our hands, you go and ask for silver now, don't say that they may not give it, even the village chief will not agree."
This day is too aggrieved, she, as an elder, has to be suppressed by the younger generation, Ji Liu finished getting the beans and lay on the kang and turned over and over to think of a way to deal with the two stepsons.
Like her, Ji Nuan can't sleep steadily, and she is going to the market tomorrow, what should I buy?
"Master, it's not me who hits you, with the current conditions of the Ji family, it's useless to think too much." Xue'er combed the hair on her body, Ji Nuan held it in her arms and rubbed it for a while, she knew that there was not much spare money at home, couldn't she think about it, the hair that was finally straightened out, Xue'er pounced and pressed on Ji Nuan's body, and the little thing dared to resist Ji Nuan turned over and gained the upper hand, Xue'er instantly became bigger and pressed Ji Nuan underneath.
"Bang" The bed collapsed, Xue'er picked up Ji Nuan and threw it on her back, one person and one beast complained at the same time that the bed in the space was not strong, and a line of words appeared in mid-air: This is not a quality problem, it is the two of you who deliberately sabotage, this pot space is not back!
Unable to find the one who carried the pot, Ji Nuan and Xue'er had to clean up the house, but fortunately, after the house was cleaned up, there was an extra bed, this time they didn't make a fuss, Xue'er shrunk and curled up in the master's arms and closed her eyes.
The Ji family got up in the middle of the night and was busy, only the people who went to the county to deliver tofu on the same day could sleep until the fifth watch, the water tofu belonged to the brothers, the dry tofu was made by Ji Ruinian and his wife, and Ji Nuan was responsible for making bean sprouts in the space. When it was just dawn outside, Ji Lianhua came over to get dried tofu and bean sprouts.
In addition to the amount they wanted, Ji Nuan also gave the two families some to keep to eat, Ji Lianhua said that the cold dishes mixed with bean sprouts were particularly delicious, Ji Nuan told him to buy some sesame oil, and then buy some sesame seeds to put in the cold dishes to be more fragrant.
"I remember, I'll let my dad buy some back today."
Gu Shuzhen asked him not to listen to his cousin, although this girl can't cook, she knows how to eat, she just bought rapeseed oil and soy sauce for a few days, and she remembered sesame oil.
In the past, I always felt that the family could eat and drink enough, and a few surplus money in my hand was enough, but now I know that people are never satisfied, and when they have meat, they still think about fish, and they think about japonica rice with white flour. For example, Gu Shuzhen herself, two months ago, she thought it was good to live in an adobe house, but now she looks at the blue brick house of her brother-in-law's house, and she can't help but wonder when her family will be able to build a house like that!
"Who doesn't buy something to eat during the New Year, and if you want sesame oil and sesame seeds, you don't just eat them yourself, everyone can taste them, and my father won't object." Ji Lianhua took out two warm eggs from his pocket and stuffed them into Ji Nuan's hands, Ji Nuan refused to accept them, Ji Lianhua said that this was specially cooked for Ji Nuan by his mother, and they still had it at home, and said that if they bought back sesame oil mixed with cold vegetables, they would definitely send some to them to taste.
After his cousin left, Ji Lianqiu shook his head: "I don't think Lianhua's wish is easy to come true." "Sesame oil is not cheap, and sesame seeds are not a specialty of their side, and the two things add up to less than three dollars to half a tael of silver.
Ji Nuan patted her small chest at a few brothers, with her, she guaranteed that everyone would eat sesame oil and sesame seeds, Gu Shuzhen glanced at her: "Your two taels of silver will be given in batches, and one penny of silver will be spent today." So she didn't have to worry about buying sesame oil.
