Chapter 409: Making Baked Cakes
He Laosi learns quickly.
There is no baked cake, just eat it directly in the white mask, smear some sauce, cut some small green onions, and sprinkle some ginger, the taste of white flour steamed buns is better than ever.
Mrs. Liu also joined in the fun, and even ate a steamed bun with eggs, saying that it tasted very good.
He had already pursed his lips and smiled.
I kneaded the dough and waited until the next day to send it.
So, after that, they went to the county town to find a house for rent.
If He Laosi is alone, it is easy to find a place, just pick up the cheapest Chase shop, because Guyang City is a county with high coal sales, so there are many Chase shops in the city for coal digging laborers, one or twenty people, lying side by side in a room, the price is cheap, and it will cost a few pennies a night, but He Zao still has some selfishness, hoping that He Laosi can fight for his own happiness once, and bring Zhao and Wubao to the city in the future.
Therefore, they simply look for it in the alleys behind the main street, there are many houses for rent, but the price is very expensive, the vacant land they rent is only one or two or eight dollars a month, and the houses they go out cost three or four taels a month.
If you make money by making baked cakes, you can't make a net profit of four or five taels of silver a month.
There was no way, so they had to look for it a little away from the main street.
The rent is relatively much cheaper, looking for it, He Zao found that the last time they were looking for Uncle He was the mouth of this alley, they came to the interest, and inquired, the house in this alley is really cheap, and with a kitchen, yard, although the vacant space in the yard is not big, but it can also open up a small vegetable field, grow a vegetable or something.
This is still up to He Laosi.
However, He Zao added: "Fourth uncle, it's better to choose a slightly larger courtyard, so you can grow a vegetable, which will save you money to buy vegetables, you go out and take a look, the vegetables in the city are expensive!" ”
He Laosi thought about it in his heart, so he nodded and agreed, he is a farmer, even if he comes to work in the city, he feels uncomfortable without planting anything, as if he has no place in his heart.
They finally chose a piece in the alley behind the alley where Uncle He lived at the beginning, the courtyard is larger, the overall look is more tidy, and the rent is not too expensive, two taels of silver per month.
One advantage is that there is a well in the yard, and the draft is convenient. Naturally, it is more convenient to grow vegetables.
He Laosi decided on this room.
However, the head of the family admitted that he had to pay three months' rent.
The current situation is that He Laosi is likely to not be able to work for three months, and he only has more than two taels of silver on him, which is still his savings for a long time, and there is not much left at home.
You can't let people take money for three rooms!
He Zao exerted his three-inch tongue, bargained with the master's family, and finally made a gesture to go to another house to rent, so the master's family agreed to pay only one month's rent, but they needed to pay an extra 200 yuan, in order to prevent the expiration of a month, they have not found the next home, and this 200 yuan is the compensation given to them by He Laosi! But if you pay for three months, you don't need to pay extra.
Renting a house outside is said to be true.
He Zao has always scoffed.
However, people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.
She knew that He Laosi didn't take so much money, so she discussed with He Laosi, he took the lion's head, and she took out 200 Wen, and it was the same when he returned when he made money.
Anyway, I owe such a big favor, and it's not bad for this.
He Laosi agreed.
After renting the house, I went to buy dozens of catties of good noodles, two cans of rapeseed oil, and a suitable household furnishings, and went to Liu's house to move the things that I bought at the right time, and it looked like a small home.
People didn't prepare quilts, so He Laosi decided to wait two days later to bring the quilts when they went home.
Originally, I was thinking of finding a short-term job first, and then come back after I went back and covered it.
Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile: "Let the fourth brother live in my house, you still don't agree one by one, it's too troublesome to live outside!" ”
"If we live for a day or two, we can only trouble your house, but my fourth uncle is a permanent resident, and it is not okay to live in your house for nothing!" He Zao said with a grin.
Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said no more.
That night, they went to the banquet building for dinner together.
Of course, it was invited by He Zao, but the shopkeeper Liu specially ordered wine that could also be drunk by a woman's family.
When he goes out, even if he is hungry again, he is only willing to dip it, so he will no longer touch it, and he chun'er is even more conscious, and he will not even touch it, and only replace the wine with tea.
The Liu family was not reluctant, and only picked He Laosi to irrigate.
He Laosi was very happy today, so he didn't refuse to come, and soon got drunk.
He Zao completed a big event today, and his mood was also very light, and he listened to the old lady of the Liu family chatting with He Chun'er with a smile while eating the vegetables.
It wasn't until this time that she noticed something unusual.
Even after getting along for so long, she has never met Liu Yuquan's mother.
The Liu family, as if there was no such person, in the past, she thought that Mrs. Liu lived in Fucheng or the county seat, but now it seems that it is not necessarily.
Could it be that he died early!
Otherwise, how could there be no family reunion even during the Lantern Festival.
Thinking like this, He had already felt a little pity for Liu Yuquan.
even took the initiative to help him pick up the dishes: "When the baked cakes open, if you like to eat them, I will ask my fourth uncle to give you one alone every day." ”
Liu Yuquan dragged a long tail note and spoke from his nostrils: "I'm definitely not rare!" ”
The little pity that had just emerged from He Zao's heart immediately disappeared without a trace.
Hmph, what an uncute little brat.
He Chun'er smiled and cleared the siege: "Look at the two of you, you are generally old, it stands to reason that you should be able to say it, why are you cross-eyed as soon as you meet, don't make noise outside, be careful to make people laugh!" ”
He Zaopi smiled and said "hehe" to Liu Yuquan.
The latter's dark eyes blinked, and he turned his head to speak to Old Lady Liu.
Cut!
He Zao also buried his little head in the bowl, revealing only the back of his head.
He Chun'er was still smiling.
She could see that He had been a little depressed for a few days at home because of the quarrel with Ah Che, but after coming to the county seat, he had regained his energetic appearance.
Think of it as a distraction.
The next day, He had already gone to find the steward.
Another reason why she stayed in the county seat was to ask the steward what had happened and why the He family had been pushed to the front of the stage now.
The steward actually saw He Sanfang's family on the sixteenth night, they came to the county seat, Ah Che was not at ease, and specially asked someone to come and talk to him, so that he could take care of it a little more.
This is also the meaning of truly loving the He family.
The steward didn't show up, just let people watch.
When I heard that the second girl of the He family was going to a blacksmith shop and renting a house, it was very lively, so I guessed that she had come up with another way to do business.
For the sake of the Han family's interests, he also wanted to come to the door to ask, and He had already come to the door.
