Chapter 47: The heart is more than enough, but the strength is insufficient
Usually, Father Gao always stored a tent made of stools and linen at the house of his cousin who had five suits in the town, and gave a few copper plates every day.
But people's homes are also narrow, especially this year, every time he passes, Daddy Gao has to listen to the other party sigh that it is not easy to be at home, and he has to buy food and clothing in the town, and even test his mouth, asking him if he needs to ask someone to help, prick needles, and scald tung oil.
Daddy Gao doesn't know how to refuse, if there are many guests in the town, he can't be busy, and it's nothing to ask a relative to help, but it's not, this business is really limited, he earns more than 20 wen a day, and 5 or 600 wen a month, six or seven taels of silver a year, which seems to be a lot, but it can be divided, and he can't just help one relative, so divided, he is not enough for Gao Yun to study.
You must know that Gao Yun's bundle costs ten taels of silver a year, and he himself has to rack his brains every year to make more money, and it is also the recent sale of meat cakes and fish balls by the eldest couple that has attracted a lot of customers to come, so that his business is better.
It's not that Daddy Gao doesn't want to help, but he really has more than enough power to help.
"This shop is expensive, isn't it?" Daddy Gao's first reaction was to refuse, this is a lot of money, he can't go home and make the burlap tent a little thicker, and bring two more stoves, the guests are not cold, and it should not delay business.
Goldman Sachs saw at a glance what he was thinking, and reminded with a wooden face, "Dad, Xiaoxi and I are going to move the stall to the shop, and when the time comes, you will be stuck in the stall, but I am afraid that the business will be greatly affected, so I specially rented a shop for you next to it, not only to feel sorry for you, but also to hope that your business can be better." ”
Daddy Gao's hand touched his beard and shook it, almost tearing off his beard, embarrassed to point out that the boss was concerned about himself, his heart was warm, his eyebrows and eyes couldn't help but show a little smile, and he restrained his joy and said, "Okay, then I'll stick a needle in the shop." ”
His previous wish was to be able to develop his ancestors' medical skills, but later found that he couldn't do it, who made him not good at medical skills, he retreated to the second, hoping to buy a shop, no longer have to prick needles for guests on the street, but all kinds of expenses at home, so that he lived for most of his life stunned and did not have much to continue.
Once the wish is fulfilled by the child, can Daddy Gao not be happy, of course, he is even more happy with his son's filial piety.
On the way, Xiang Xi saw that Daddy Gao was happy, knowing that it was definitely not a good time to improve Xuan's affairs, so he tacitly did not speak, and arrived home in a warm atmosphere all the way.
She carried glutinous rice flour into the kitchen, ready to make some soft and glutinous pastries, but she had to avoid being discovered by Liu Yuanyuan that she was also crossing, and she couldn't refer to modern ones when making pastries.
But Xiang Xi has a system in hand, and she spends some points casually to buy a primary pastry teaching video, and she studies it carefully in the kitchen.
I don't know how long it took.
Daddy Gao's angry roar sounded in the hall outside, she was startled, the pastry in her hand fell on the desk with a click, she didn't care about this, she hurriedly walked out of the kitchen, and saw Daddy Gao holding a stick as thick as her arm, his cheeks were blue with anger, and he was walking out, and he was almost pulled by Goldman Sachs.
"Dad, it's so late, what if you go to the county and have an accident? If you have any ideas, I'll meet with my second brother tomorrow. Goldman Sachs said in a deep voice.
Daddy Gao's hand holding the stick trembled a little, and his eyes were red, "This rebel!" ”
"How did he become like this?"
Gao's mother stopped talking, walked to the kitchen door, saw her clear appearance, pursed her lips, and said, "Eldest daughter-in-law, you come into the kitchen with me, and tell me what the second couple did in the county, I didn't hear much just now." ”
Xiang Xi saw Gao's mother's lowered eyes, was stunned for a moment, nodded her head in agreement, and followed in, she waited for Gao's mother to sit down, and then told her what Guo Laosan said, as well as what Goldman Sachs said when he went to Gao Xuan to question her, without missing a word without personal emotions.
Gao's mother was silent.
I haven't spoken for a long time, and it seems that the blow is not clear.
"Mother, I want to make pastries, and fish balls ......" explained to Xi the use of sending pastries and fish balls tomorrow.
When Gao's mother heard this, it was impossible to complain that Xiang Xi didn't coax her, but she was a little satisfied with the attitude of the eldest couple who did things in a measured way and always considered the worst consequences.
"Well, I'll help you......" Gao Mu frowned and stepped forward, making a face while distracted.
Xiang Xi thought that she could avoid cranky thinking when she was busy, so she agreed, and when she put the dough of 'buckwheat red mung bean cake' on the steamer, and waited for her to get up early tomorrow morning to steam, it was already completely dark.
In the evening, the two elders were in a bad mood, and Gao Sachs came into the kitchen to cook fish balls and cabbage noodles together, and it was dinner.
After Xiang Xi lay down at night, he habitually nestled in Goldman Sachs' arms and asked curiously, "What do you think?" ”
"I don't know." Goldman Sachs told the truth, after all, he is his own son, and it is impossible to completely sever the relationship, so there is only one thing left to have a dispute.
When Xiang Xi heard that it was a messy relationship, he felt a little sympathetic to Daddy Gao.
sighed again that fortunately, Liu Yuanyuan was separated, and her completely egoistic thinking was just enough, but she had a strong personality, and she couldn't get along, she couldn't get along at all.
This kind of person is poisonous even if he is not the heroine, how far he runs!
Early the next morning.
Xiang Xi got up sleepily and ate pickled cabbage and meat dumplings for breakfast, only to feel that his stomach was round and very satisfied, and he saw that Goldman Sachs had wrapped the steamed pastries in oiled paper cloth.
The newly made fish balls are also packaged in several portions, stamped with a seal, recording the date of production, and this idea was still thought up by the village chief, so ah, don't doubt the IQ of the ancients.
It's all about the experience accumulated in the process of selling.
"Xianggong, you go to give Lin Yunxiao a gift, and then go to the county seat with him, and personally give the fish balls to the county order, and we will directly make it clear that it is from the village to the adults." Xiang Xi blinked slyly, since it was clear that he wanted to use the county order, it was better to make it clear, and he would also have a good reputation for finding a way out for the village.
What's more, she didn't plan to make money with fish balls in the first place.
"Okay." Gao Sachs touched her head and frowned: "Don't run around, wait for me to come back at home, especially if you can't go to the back mountain." ”
Xiang Xi touched the tip of her nose, and she was also to blame for ending up like this, who let her usually go to the back mountain when she was free to wonder if there was any money (materials for the system to be exchanged).
"Got it, got it." Xiang Xi waved her hand and muttered, after Goldman Sachs and Daddy Gao left, she couldn't be idle, just in time to see Wu Yunniang next door carrying a bucket to the river.
"Sister-in-law?" Wu Yunniang is fifteen this year, which is the age when she wants to say that she is close, and she usually doesn't go out much, but today is rare.
Xiang Xi asked curiously, "Where are you going?" ”
