was ridiculed by Ma Sufen, and Shen Baolan didn't dare to talk back like before.

Zhou Shuhuan is rarely at home, ignores their mother and son, has no husband to rely on, and has no capital to make money, she can't stand up at her husband's house at all.

However, instead of making Ma Sufen angry, her low attitude did not make Ma Sufen angry, but she felt that she was a wretch, and her words became more and more bitter.

"It's all from the same village, why is the difference so big, people do business and open factories, do a prosperous job, and buy a big house, but you can't even find a job, it's a shame to say it!"

The lethality of these words is no different from poking a knife into Shen Baolan's heart.

Shen Mingzhu didn't miss the love of the same village, and refused to pull her, even her in-laws looked down on her, thinking that she couldn't compare to Shen Mingzhu.

Shame and unwillingness burned in Shen Baolan's chest.

She must make money, she wants everyone to see that she Shen Baolan is no worse than Shen Mingzhu!

……

Another few days have passed, and Shen Baolan still hasn't found a job.

Even the work she looked down on before, washing dishes and cleaning, there is no shortage of manpower.

Ma Sufen's patience was also completely exhausted, and she was unwilling to help her take care of the baby.

The main Zhou Fu, that is, the ingots are too good at tossing, crying when it doesn't go well, and crying endlessly, you have to hold it to coax it.

Yuanbao has been solid since birth, and now he is a little chubby, weighing seventeen or eighteen pounds, Ma Sufen is old, and he doesn't have so much energy and physical strength to hold Yuanbao every day.

Shen Baolan had no choice, so she ruthlessly sent the ingots back to her parents' house and asked Liu Cuihua to help raise them.

Liu Cuihua is also taking her grandson anyway, bringing one baby is also bringing it, and two are also bringing it.

However, for Shen Baolan's practice of sending the child to her parents' house, her sister-in-law Tian Wenfang was not happy.

Liu Cuihua usually has to work in the fields, and the matter of taking care of her nephew has to fall on her.

It's hard to bring your own baby, who is willing to help her sister-in-law take care of the baby?

But she couldn't be happy, from her mother-in-law to her father-in-law, to her husband, the whole family loved her sister-in-law very much.

After settling the child, Shen Baolan returned to the city to continue looking for a job.

On this day, Ma Sufen had back pain, and Shen Baolan helped pick up her stepson Zhou Hao from school.

As soon as he walked out of the school gate, Zhou Hao clamored for Shen Baolan to give him pocket money, and he wanted to buy soda to drink.

A bottle of soda costs a dime and a half, and Shen Baolan only has five points when she rummages through all her pockets.

She didn't have a job, and the financial power of the family was in the hands of her mother-in-law, and she saved these five cents from between her teeth.

You can't buy a soda for five cents, but you can buy a glass of cold water.

The cold water is mixed with cold boiled water with coloring and saccharin, and the drinking water with a beautiful color is served in a transparent round glass, which is very popular with children.

Summer is here and the weather is getting hotter, so it's a great pleasure for children to spend a day at school and drink a glass of cold sugar water or soda after school.

Looking at the sugar water stall surrounded by children, Shen Baolan suddenly had an idea in her heart.

"Mom, you lend me some money, I want to do a sugar water business......"

In the evening, Shen Baolan told Ma Sufen her thoughts with great interest, "The cold water business can be profitable, peas are as big as a little pigment, add a few grains of saccharin, you can make a big bucket of cold water, sell it for five cents a cup, and a bucket can be sold for two yuan." ”

Business is good business, but Ma Sufen has suffered a big loss, and she is unwilling to let Shen Baolan touch the business, and she does not believe that Shen Baolan can make money from business.

Seeing that Ma Sufen refused to borrow her capital, Shen Baolan ran back to her parents' house.

Although Liu Cuihua is not optimistic about Shen Baolan's sugar water business, in the end, she was born by herself, so she couldn't stand the soft grinding and hard bubbles, so she gritted her teeth and borrowed twenty yuan to Shen Baolan.

Shen Hao learned carpentry, went to the mountains to cut down trees, and made small carts and wooden boxes for Shen Baolan.

A round hole was made in the top of the wooden box, which was covered with thick foam, and the round hole was covered with a thick quilt to hold popsicles.

With the help of her mother's family, Shen Baolan set up a sugar water stall at the entrance of the primary school as she wished.

……

By the time Shen Baolan returned to the family home, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening.

Ma Sufen had dinner early and was chatting with people in the family courtyard.

Seeing her coming back with a cart, many people laughed and joked, saying that the Zhou family also wanted a female boss.

Ma Sufen glanced at her daughter-in-law who was struggling to push the cart into the carport, and did not have the slightest intention of stepping forward to help, but sneered: "It's her, come on, if you don't cause trouble for me, I'll be Amitabha." ”

After a while, Shen Baolan walked out of the carport carrying a wooden box and carrying unsold soda.

Seeing that she was tired and sweating profusely, someone quipped: "Baolan, how is the business doing, are you making money?" ”

Shen Baolan wiped her sweat and said with a sad face: "What kind of money do you make, it's just enough to protect your capital." ”

When the big guy heard this, he didn't laugh at it, but you persuaded her one by one.

"It's okay, take your time, you'll always make money."

"Business is not so easy to do, if you can easily make money, then everyone will go into business."

Shen Baolan sighed again and again, with a tone of regret, "No, I knew that it was better to go to work, business is too difficult to do." ”

Hearing her sigh like this, everyone couldn't help but feel sympathy and pity.

"Mom, you come back early later, I have something to tell you."

Listening to her daughter-in-law's words, Ma Sufen's face immediately became gloomy.

She didn't think Shen Baolan could have any good fart, maybe she lost money and wanted to borrow money from her.

There's no way she's going to lend money to this loser's daughter-in-law!

Ma Sufen deliberately waited until almost 10 o'clock before going back.

As soon as she entered the door, Shen Baolan greeted her diligently, "Mom, why did you come back?" ”

Ma Sufen glanced at her, "The dog is nosy with the mouse, I can come back when I want, can you manage it?" ”

Shen Baolan didn't care about her bad attitude, "Mom, I have something to tell you, you go to the room with me." ”

"I'm not going, and I don't want to hear it."

Seeing this, Shen Baolan had no choice but to close the window in the living room, close the curtains again, and then take out a bulging cloth bag from the room.

"Mom, look at this."

Ma Sufen stared at her suspiciously, and refused to take it, probably because she was afraid that there was something bad inside.

Shen Baolan opened the cloth bag and let the contents be exposed.

The flowers are all banknotes.

Ma Sufen's squinting eyes suddenly widened to the size of a copper bell, "Where did you get the money?" ”

"Mom, these are all the money I earned by selling sugar water and popsicles today!"

Ma Sufen's face was full of incredulity, "You, didn't you say that you didn't make any money?" ”

Shen Baolan said proudly: "I don't say that, everyone knows that they sell cold water to make money, so what should they do if they come to steal business with me?" ”

As if she couldn't accept such a reversal, Ma Sufen was stunned for a while before coming back to her senses, and when she followed the door again, her tone was very different, revealing kindness and enthusiasm.

"Baolan, how much did you earn today?" (End of chapter)
