"It's been delivered, as soon as it came out of the pot just now, I sent the hot nickname that was sent to be reborn!"

Liu Yicai responded and excitedly took the hot steamed bun handed to him by Liu.

After most of the busy day, after earning the first pot of gold, Liu Yicai sent the second steamed bun back and took out two taels of silver from his purse.

The people of the Su family and the Liu family were overjoyed, and they kept discussing how to divide the money.

It's all a family, and no one is embarrassed to ask for more.

After a long stalemate, Su Qingyan took the silver in front of him and said, "Don't let it, I'll take care of the accounts!" Don't look at the fact that we can earn two taels of silver a day, in fact, the net income is less than one or two!

You think! The two of us have invested most of our savings, making so many steamed buns every day, and the flour is consumed very quickly, we have to deduct all this money, and the rest is the money we want to share! ”

"Yes, yes, Qingyan has a flexible brain, so she can't manage the money."

Liu Sidong listened to what Su Qingyan said very reasonably, and hurriedly responded, but then remembered that Su Qingyan didn't know a single big word, and arithmetic should not be good, so he asked worriedly:

"But can you remember exactly?"

"Hehe, I can't write, but I can draw." Su Qingyan said, dipped his finger in tea, drew a square box on the table and said, "This doesn't look like a flour bag, so use this to represent flour." ”

He drew a fatter semicircle and said, "Look at this is not like our steamed buns, just use this to represent steamed buns, I can understand it by memorizing it myself, as long as the number is good!" Anyway, if you think there is anything wrong with the money, ask me directly, if I don't know, then I will be responsible for paying you! ”

"Hey! It's not that I can't believe you, it's that I'm afraid I'm tired of you! Liu Sidong explained, and said: "But it's not a good way to do this, when we have money, it's better to find a gentleman and teach the juniors to read a few words!" ”

"Hey, that's a good idea, I'm going to learn, I'm going to learn!" Su Qingyan was afraid that he would show too much ability and arouse his uncle's suspicions, so he hurriedly raised his hands excitedly

Approve.

The account of the steamed bun house fell into Su Qingyan's hands, she took out ten copper plates and gave them to Liu Yicai and said: "Grandpa, this is the money for borrowing other people's ox carts, and you may have to borrow it every day in the future, so let's give more, so as not to make people unwilling." ”

"Okay, I'll go back and negotiate."

The people in the steamed bun room have gone back to make up for sleep, and they will come here to wake up after dark at night, and then start a new day of steamed steamed bread business when the fourth watch is the second day.

Su Qingyan wanted to know about the sale of steamed buns, and also wanted to see if Lin Zhongyan had lost weight recently.

The next day, when the first batch of 400 steamed buns came out of the pot, he followed Liu Yicai to Hongyun Restaurant in an ox cart.

Lin Zhonghuo was waiting at the door early, and when he saw the ox cart coming, he hurriedly urged the man to move the steamed buns in, and he said excitedly:

"Sister Qingyan, four hundred steamed buns this morning are not enough to eat, why don't you send six hundred in the morning?"

"Yes, business is pretty good!"

Su Qingyan saw that the guy was carrying the steamed buns in, and took out the empty bamboo frame, asked Liu Yicai to wait, and went to the small side door in the backyard.

Lin Zhongyan was learning to dance, her legs were raised high, obviously she was struggling, but Aunt Jiaoxi was still asking her to lift up.

She exhaled, exerted her strength to breastfeed, and lifted it up again, but although she was now one hundred and seventy pounds, she was still a fat person, and she couldn't bear it for a while to do such a physically demanding thing.

My back and legs hurt all over my body, so I put my feet down and said vigorously: "No, no, no, I want to rest." ”

"Miss Lin, I knew today, you shouldn't have eaten three steamed buns in one meal yesterday, Miss, are you tired, you drink some water."

Xiao Cui greeted her with a distressed face, and while helping Lin Zhongyan wipe her sweat, she helped her to sit down on the stone bench on the side.

Su Qingyan just heard this sentence when he entered the door, pouted speechlessly, and asked, "Did you lose more than sixty pounds and start to float?" I remember saying before that you can eat half of this steamed bun at each meal. ”

"Oh, Su Qingyan, why didn't you come here without saying hello, it scared me."

Lin Zhongyan just picked up the teacup and took a sip, when he heard Su Qingyan's voice, he hurriedly put it down again.

Su Qingyan smiled and said:

"How do I know you're lazy if I don't come? For more than two months, you have been doing very well, I am very relieved, you see that you are only a little stronger than ordinary people now, you can't give up halfway! ”

"I know, I know what you say, it's that steamed bun, it's fragrant and soft...... I couldn't hold back for a moment, and I ......"

"Okay, I know, I've already eaten, don't blame yourself too much, you must pay attention in the future, don't overeat anymore, you have been dieting to lose weight, if you overeat again, the weight is easy to go back again, are you willing to change back to the way you used to look when you lower your head and can't see your feet?"

"No, no, I don't want to, I won't eat it." Lin Zhongyan repeatedly assured that Su Qingyan was relieved.

Lin Zhongyan said that he weighed himself every day recently, but the weight dropped more and more slowly, as if he was not moving, he lost more than 40 pounds in the first month, but he only lost more than 20 pounds in the second month.

Su Qingyan knew that she had encountered a plateau, and said some ways to break through the plateau, not wanting her grandfather to wait outside for too long, so she quit and came back.

In the next few days, 600 steamed buns were sent in the morning, and another 1,400 in the morning, which was two taels of silver every day.

The people of the Su family and the Liu family are not to mention how comfortable they are.

But the more they made money, the more people became angry, first the family who rented the ox cart to Liu Yicai, and proposed that the commission of the ox cart should rise to 20 yuan a day, and then the lion opened his mouth and wanted 35 yuan.

Su Qingyan hated this kind of unsatisfied person the most, and in a fit of anger, he proposed to take out the forty taels of silver he had earned before and buy an ox cart.

The family is very reluctant, after all, the old Liu family only has a few acres of land, and it only costs a few copper plates to borrow an ox cart, not to mention the lot of effort to raise cattle, and they also have to bear the risk of death and loss of cattle, dozens of taels of silver are their savings that they can't save for more than ten years, it's really too much.

However, the days when the ox cart could not be found, and everyone was running to the county seat with 200 steamed buns on their backs was too tormenting, and people were tired like a spinning top, and they couldn't leave.

In the end, he spent twenty-eight taels of silver to buy a little bull.

Since then, it has been much more convenient for them to send steamed buns and buy flour.

The days are spent in a busy way, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day when Su Xiang gets married.

The restaurant is open as usual, and the steamed buns are made and sent over the day before and stored in the ice cellar.

After more than a month of operation, a total of 70 taels of silver were collected, excluding the investment of the two families, the cost of flour and the ox cart, and the Su family and the Liu family each received 11 taels of silver.

Su Adong plus the eight taels of silver obtained by setting traps and selling game these days, in addition to the thirty taels of dowry to Su Xiang, there is also an old capital of nineteen taels.

When the eldest girl got married, he didn't pick the door, brought the ox cart back from the steamed bun house, and bought a whole cart of wine and meat, so that people passing by couldn't help but blush.

This married girl is a grade higher than the daughter-in-law of the village!

On the wedding day, the Su family got up before dawn, Su Qingyan and Su Wan boiled bath water for Su Xiang, and Liu made dumplings with pure meat stuffing to let the bride cushion her stomach.

Su Adong cleaned inside and out, and when there were people who came to help, he poured tea and served water for people, and after a while, he and a few gentlemen went to borrow a table and a stool.
