"Mom, I may not be able to go to the city tomorrow, so I have to postpone it for a day."

When Xia Youzhi arrived home, the sky had already darkened slightly.

"Why did you change your mind?" Xia Mu is hot dishes in the kitchen.

At noon, there were still a lot of dishes left, and she gave some to Huang Lianzhi and Hu Chunlan, and only kept a little for herself.

She knew that Xia Youzhi didn't like to eat leftovers very much.

"The braised pork is not enough, I will send more meat tomorrow, I'm afraid you won't be busy."

Xia Youzhi squatted down and filled the stove with firewood, "Besides, the interview time has not been decided, just say that these days, there is no hurry." ”

After all, I heard that it is not good to take leave from the construction site.

Think about it, let's wait until Mr. Yan calls.

"It's okay, let me make the braised pork by myself, it's really a little worried, hehe, I'll practice again, you can watch from the side." Xia Mu said with a smile.

"Okay."

She's slowly letting go and letting her mom do it herself.

Her mother is already doing very well, but she just doesn't have self-confidence, and she always feels that she is not doing well.

"What about Jinglan and Qinglin?"

Xia Youzhi didn't see them when he came home.

"I'll ask them to send some food to your eldest aunt and second aunt's house, there are some leftovers at noon, and they won't be long after, so eat them quickly." Xia Mu said.

"Hmm." Xia Youzhi nodded.

"At noon today, your aunt asked me about the recipe." Xia Mu hesitated for a moment, "I mean that I want to see the recipe, I guess I want to follow us." ”

I guess it's red-eyed.

"Well, there are many rumors in the village, and I plan to rent a house in the town." Xia Youzhi said lightly.

This situation was expected, and Xia Youzhi's mood did not fluctuate much when he heard it.

"To the town...... Renting an apartment? Xia Mu stopped stir-frying and asked in a daze.

Xia Youzhi nodded, "Mom, I've thought about it, this shipping cost is a little more, and it is estimated that it is enough to rent a house, so that you don't have to be so tired." ”

"But......" Xia Mu hesitated.

Leaving Niujiao Village and renting a house in the town, she really didn't think about it.

Besides, the youngest son is almost old enough to go to school.

"Mom, I'm going to go to school then, and the family can only rely on you, you and my sister-in-law can still take care of each other while living in the town, and when the time comes, call Cousin Qingqing to help, and she won't have to suffer from the gossip in the village." Xia Youzhi analyzed.

And when the time comes, if she goes to the market to sell braised meat every day, then her mother will save much trouble.

"It's good, but Qinglin is about to go to school, leaving him home alone, this ...... What should I do? Xia Mu hesitated.

"Mom, isn't this easy? Just let Qinglin go to the town to study. Xia Youzhi said with a smile.

"That's much more expensive than studying in the village, and besides, you have to pay for food and drink in the town, unlike the countryside where you can grow some vegetables or something." Xia Mu said worriedly.

"Mom, you don't have to worry about that." Xia Youzhi paused, "Do you know how much money we can make a month now?" ”

Xia Mu shook her head.

The more than 300 yuan in the family was still in the passbook, and Xia Youzhi didn't touch it.

The rest of the money was invested in the canteen, and she didn't care how much.

Xia Youzhi drew a number.

Xia Mu's eyes widened, and her hands holding the spatula softened.

"One...... Thousand? Xia Mu asked tremblingly.

"At least one thousand and five."

After listening to this, Xia Mu was dizzy.

"Mom, are you alright?" Xia Youzhi hurriedly got up and hugged Xia's mother.

This...... Is it so exaggerated?

Xia Youzhi couldn't cry or laugh.

"Yes, Mom is fine, Mom is fine."

Xia Mu patted her chest, and she didn't care about the dishes that were about to be pasted.

After a while, Xia Mu eased her mind and looked at Xia Youzhi with a serious expression, "Zhizhi, don't tell anyone about this." ”

Xia Youzhi nodded.

Of course, she wouldn't say that this is a huge amount of money in the countryside.

"Move, let's move to town." Xia Mu's eyes were firm.

Now the village is jealous, if they know, it will be worth it.

Xia Youzhi smiled.

Her mom can figure it out.

"Mom, I'm going to Uncle Zhang's house later." The way of summer young.

"What's wrong?" Xia Mu asked.

After Xia Youzhi's words just now, she is now afraid that something will happen to her family.

"It's nothing, I just want to talk to Uncle Zhang and see if we can increase our family's source of income." Xia Youzhi said with a smile.

Xia Mu doesn't know much about this, but she also knows her daughter's ability.

"Then you're done with dinner."

"Okay."

After dinner.

"Is Uncle Zhang at home?"

After dinner, Xia Youzhi came to Uncle Zhang's house.

The gate of the courtyard was opened, and it was a little dark, and the candles inside were faintly visible.

"Who?"

A slightly old voice rang out.

And with that, the sound of sluggish footsteps.

"I am the daughter of Xia Laosan's family, Xia Youzhi. I want to find Uncle Zhang. ”

As soon as Xia Youzhi's words fell, the gate of the courtyard was opened.

Unlike the thin grandmother in the village, the grandmother in front of her is more rich.

One look at the nutrition is very sufficient.

"Xia girl?"

"Yes, you're Aunt Zhang, right?" Xia Youzhi said with a smile.

Before coming, Xia Youzhi had already learned from Xia's mother that Uncle Zhang and his wife did not live with their son.

"Hehe, yes. Come on, just now your old Uncle Zhang was still talking about the braised pork that your family made today. Aunt Zhang said with a kind smile.

She has a good relationship with Grandma Liu, and she often hears Grandma Liu praise this girl on weekdays, so her impression of Xia Youzhi is excellent.

Xia Youzhi smiled and stepped into the courtyard.

"Woman, who is it?"

Uncle Zhang's voice came from the room.

"The daughter of Xia Laosan's family, I came to you for something, you should come out quickly." Old Aunt Zhang said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, I heard the sound of squirming and putting on shoes from the room.

"Why is Xia Yatou here?" Old Uncle Zhang walked out with a smile.

"Uncle Zhang, I came to you because I wanted to ask you for help." The way of summer young.

"Please ask me for help?" Old Uncle Zhang was surprised.

How can he, an old man, help?

"Hmm." Xia Youzhi smiled and nodded, "How do you feel about the lo-mei you ate today?" ”

"That's definitely good, I've never seen anything like this." Uncle Zhang said sincerely.

He didn't understand why Xia Youzhi asked this question again, but he still answered truthfully.

"If you think it tastes good, it's done." Xia Youzhi smiled and said, "I have a reluctant request, if you think this tastes good, please help me publicize it." ”

"Propaganda?" Old Uncle Zhang looked confused.

"Well, you are a famous chef in our ten miles and eight towns here, weddings and funerals, you are indispensable to be in charge, if it is suitable, our lo-mei can also be moved to the table, and you will be less tired and less fried two dishes." Xia Youzhi said with a smile.

Today, Uncle Zhang praised this lo-mei in front of everyone, indicating that he really thinks it is good.

At this time, she wanted to strike while the iron was hot and do what she had planned.

Old Uncle Zhang looked at the girl in front of him and suddenly understood her intention.

Feelings are waiting for you here.

But he was not disgusted, and praised Xia Youzhi even more.

This brain is really smart.

No wonder there are rumors in the village that the Xia family now eats meat every day.

Now it seems that there is this girl, which is not surprising.

"You girl is sweet-mouthed." Uncle Zhang smiled, "There will be a banquet later, then I'll talk to the host." ”

"Then thank you, Uncle Zhang."

"Then how are you going to sell this braised pork? If it's too expensive, you may not be able to afford it. Uncle Zhang asked.

Pork knuckle is not cheap, the taste can be made like that, and it is estimated that the price will not be low.

"Braised pork knuckle, I sell it in the market for four yuan a catty, if you want a banquet, it will be three yuan and five pounds. The braised fat sausage, which is sold for a piece of five pounds on weekdays, if you want a banquet, it can be two pounds a piece. "The way of summer young.

Although it is cheaper to get meat from the meat factory now, if the price is the same as the price in the factory, it will definitely not work.

After all, if it reaches the factory, it will not be very good.

Old Uncle Zhang thought for a while, "Well, this price is fair, next time there is a banquet, I will try to help you ask." ”

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Zhang. When the time comes, if someone decides, you will get two cents for a pound of braised pork. Xia Youzhi said with a smile.

"How can this give me money." Old Uncle Zhang was so surprised that he waved his hand again and again.

How can the banquet have to be set for ten catties and eight catties, which is a lot of money.

I'm just opening my mouth.

"You can rest assured, if you don't have it, you can't do business." The way of summer young.

"No, no. What does that look like? Old Uncle Zhang hurriedly shook his head.

It's all from the villagers, and if it is passed out, how will he be a person.

The old Aunt Zhang on the side also nodded in agreement with Uncle Zhang's words.

"Yes, girl, you just have this heart, you make a hard money for this lo-mei, and we have to take your money, which has to make people poke their backbones."

Her wife often goes out to cook for others, and in addition to the salary, the main family often packs and brings back leftover vegetables and meat, so their life is not bad.

Xia Youzhi saw that the old couple was so frightened, so he didn't say any more.

If it is done in the future, I will naturally have a way to give it.

But Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang are indeed honest people.

"That's okay, Uncle Zhang. I'll leave it to you. Xia Youzhi said with a smile.

"Don't say that, kid. It's all from one village, and if there is a need for the main family, I'll tell you when the time comes. Old Uncle Zhang said with a smile.

Xia Youzhi nodded, left the braised pork knuckle he brought, and left.

Looking at the braised pork knuckle on the table that couldn't be shirked, Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "This kid is quite good at getting things done." ”

"Isn't it, if Ah Zheng had this brain, he wouldn't have to worry."

Old Uncle Zhang thought of Zhang Zheng, who followed Gu Tingshen to work on the construction site, and felt a little worried.

Let this child learn to cook with himself, desperately unwilling.

insisted on going out, but the old couple had no choice but to agree.

Fortunately, he followed Shen Wazi, although the child looked ruthless, but he was also a measured child, and he was still more relieved.

"Xia Yatou, this child is smart, I heard Jinhua say that she has the idea of what is going on in their family now. I see that this family is going to prosper. ”

Jinhua is Grandma Liu's name.

On weekdays, I really praise Xia Youzhi with her.

Old Uncle Zhang nodded.

He can't be wrong when he looks at people, this girl is not simple.

"Aren't you going to have two banquets next week?" Old Aunt Zhang continued, "Go back and ask. ”

"Okay." Old Uncle Zhang agreed.
