Chapter 32: Love Doesn't Go Back
No one in the Li family has paid attention to Li Mingren's situation these days, and Zhao Yunlan has an attitude of 'you love to go back', but Zhao Yunlan doesn't dare to show it on the bright side, and cares more about Wang's body every day, Wang feels that Li Mingren is too wrong with such a good daughter-in-law, and is afraid that Zhao Yunlan will be sad, so he doesn't say a word about Li Mingren.
Wang's health is better, and thanks to this time, Zhao Yunlan has improved the family's meals. Wang's recovery this time is better than before, and he can help take care of Xiaobao these days.
The stall has added a dumpling powder, and the Li family's hot and sour noodles business has become better.
The Li family has been busy for more than half a month, and on a bright spring afternoon, it is actually this afternoon!
When everyone came back from the stall, Zhao Yunlan went directly to the hall house to gather the Li family: "Daddy, I want to rent a shop in the town to do the business of hot and sour noodles." ”
Wang didn't say anything, only asked, "How much does it cost to rent a shop?" ”
"I haven't inquired about this yet, I'll discuss it with you first, and if you don't have any opinions, I'll start preparing." Zhao Yunlan replied.
Li Mingyi: "Sister-in-law, I agree, so that we can open the door for business even on a rainy day." ”
"Well, I think so too," Zhao Yunlan continued: "And I plan to tell the village chief about this sweet potato noodles, and I plan to sell dry vermicelli later. ”
"What does that have to do with the village chief about this?" Old man Li asked.
"I want to tell the village chief to let the people in the village learn the practice of sweet potato flour, and in the future, we will collect sweet potato flour from the villagers, if we want to sell dry flour, our sweet potatoes are not enough at all, and the sweet potato flour is too late to make it, and now the people in the village are also curious about our family, but everyone is reasonable, and the villagers are not willing to do those things that hurt their feelings." Zhao Yunlan explained.
Wang: "That's the reason, the people in the village have also helped us a lot, when we are having a bad time, we have more or less a helping hand, tell them this method, and then collect their powder, everyone can also have a profit." ”
Zhao Yunlan: "Yes, mother, I want to open the shop first, and wait a few days for us to return the village chief's money, and then tell the village chief about it." When the time comes, I will trouble my father and mother to come forward and talk about it together. ”
Old man Li: "Okay, it's easy to pay back the money, and we'll talk about it together when the time comes." ”
Zhao Yunlan finalized this matter, and took out all the money: "In addition to the expenses of daily life and the money to repay the village chief, I still have four taels of silver here." ”
There should have been more silver, but since she started making money, Zhao Yunlan has never treated everyone's stomach badly, and Xiaobao has gained a lot of weight during this time. Moreover, the living conditions of the family have improved a lot, and Zhao Yunlan, who should have purchased things at home, has also been added.
However, with these four taels of silver, the Li family was also very happy.
In previous years, Old Man Li worked hard to earn more than four taels of silver.
Zhao Yunlan continued: "Second brother, tomorrow I will go to the town to find the tooth man to see the shop, and then I will go to the shopkeeper Wu to ask about the situation of the shop in the town." ”
The family was decided, and they dispersed.
On the second day, Li Mingyi went to find the tooth man, who still asked the steward in the previous construction of the Zhuangzi to help contact, and Li Mingyi followed the tooth man to look at the shop all morning.
Zhao Yunlan took the stall and went to the cloth village, and it happened that the shopkeeper Wu was also looking for Zhao Yunlan for something.
"Mrs. Zhao, I'm just waiting for you to collect the stall." Shopkeeper Wu came with a smile.
"Shopkeeper Wu is so happy, I also happen to have something to find you." Zhao Yunlan responded.
"What's the matter with Mrs. Zhao?"
"I want to ask Shopkeeper Wu about renting a shop in this town."
"Zhao Niangzi, this matter! Well, I'm not in a hurry, I'll talk about my business first, good news. Shopkeeper Wu smiled
Zhao Yunlan was also infected by Shopkeeper Wu: "What happy event did Shopkeeper Wu encounter?" ”
"Mrs. Zhao is really a noble person who forgets things," Shopkeeper Wu quipped, "Today is the day of sharing!" ”
Li Mingli and his younger siblings just came in when they heard this sentence, "Ah, divide it!" That's right, we also have a share of the head flower. ”
The brothers and sisters were happy.
During this time, Zhao Yunlan was busy with sweet potato flour, occasionally thinking about Li Mingren, and taking care of the Wang family, and almost forgot about the head flower.
Shopkeeper Wu had already prepared the silver, well, it was silver, Shopkeeper Wu pushed the small wooden box in front of him forward: "Come, let's take a look!" ”
Zhao Yunlan stepped forward and opened the box, and there were twenty taels of small silver ingots lying in it.
The Li family brothers and sisters were stunned, and Zhao Yunlan was also stunned by the silver ingot: "How can there be so many?" He asked with an incredulous face, after all, the population of this Qingshui Town is so small, and the price of the head flower is not very expensive, Zhao Yunlan really can't believe it.
"I'm ashamed to say that Mrs. Zhao hasn't learned about my situation yet. Of course, I also admire Zhao Niangzi's boldness. The shopkeeper Wu said with some shame: "The Qingyabu Village in Qingshui Town was left by my grandmother in the family, and I came back to take care of the ancestral business of the family because I was old, and the family also has Qingyabu Village in the Fucheng and the county." My eldest son is in charge of the city, and my younger brother is taking care of the county. ”
"Shopkeeper Wu is hidden deeply!" Zhao Yunlan said complimentally.
"Where, it's just the grace of my grandmother, my grandmother's maiden family is the Wei family in Fucheng."
"Huh? The Wei family? Zhao Yunlan was puzzled.
"I won't come one by one today, Zhao Niangzi will have a chance to meet in the future, but I will continue to cooperate with Zhao Niangzi." Shopkeeper Wu smiled, stopped mentioning the matter, and changed the topic: "Does Mrs. Zhao want to buy a shop or rent a shop?" ”
Zhao Yunlan didn't want to ask more, and replied: "Rent a shop, the conditions in this house are limited, and I want to ask about the market of the shop in this town." ”
"Well, then I'll take my shop as an example, my cloth shop, now hanging in the tooth shop to sell, even with the backyard to sell for one hundred and fifty taels, if you rent this shop, it will cost twenty taels a year. Zhao Niangzi's family is in the hot and sour noodle business, but it doesn't need to be so big, rent one without a backyard, and the rent is about seven or eight taels a year. ”
"Well, you can do without the backyard, but you want a well, otherwise it will be too troublesome to fetch water." Zhao Yunlan responded.
Shopkeeper Wu: "I remember that there was an empty shop near the well over there. ”
Li Mingyi just happened to rush over: "Sister-in-law, I was about to say, I went to see a few shops today, and it is true that the location of the shop next to the well is OK, the water is convenient, and the shop is quite spacious, but the rent is more expensive." ”
"How much is the rent?" Zhao Yunlan asked.
Li Mingyi: "The rent has to be eight taels, and the family money is not enough." ”
Zhao Yunlan: "Hahaha, don't worry about the rent, let's see what this is." ”
"How can there be so much money?" Li Mingyi was surprised and delighted," Li Mingli said beside him, "This is the head flower divided." ”
Li Mingyi slapped his forehead. I had to sigh that it was really a family, and I forgot about it.
"Let's go see the shop. Shopkeeper Wu, then we will say goodbye first. Zhao Yunlan bowed to Shopkeeper Wu.
Shopkeeper Wu arched his hand, and a few people went out to leave.
