Deng Qingling, a recent college graduate, struggled to find work due to the pandemic, so she returned to her hometown. Her grandmother, who passed away from illness, left her a silver bracelet.
...Guo Haoxi and Liang Xueying, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, were picking chestnuts and collecting firewood in the back mountain.
"Then I want to go too." Guo Haoran said.
Guo Haochen: "The buns are on the table in the main hall, don't you want to go and eat them?"
"Eat, why not? Big brother, wait for us, we will come after we get the buns."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them ran into the main room, grabbed the buns and ran out impatiently.
In this way, Guo Ningwan and Guo Haoran ate buns and followed Guo Haochen to the back mountain.
When they came back with firewood, the meal was ready.
The whole family gathered together, eating meat and drinking soup.
After dinner, Guo Haochen and the twins cleaned the table and washed the dishes.
The adults set up tea, mooncakes and other necessities in the yard to worship the Moon Goddess.
After worshiping the moon, everyone watched the moon in the yard, drank tea and chatted.
After returning to the room, Guo Jianping looked at Deng Qingling, who was sitting at the head of the bed counting money and keeping accounts, and said, "Wife, why don't you hire someone to help in the store? That way you can have more ease."
Deng Qingling: "I have no plans to hire any workers at the moment. Don't be fooled by the busy appearance of the store today. Business is generally average, and it's only slightly better on market days."
When we only sold wonton buns, the store made a little over two dollars a day, and on good market days, we could make a profit of around four dollars.
We’ve only been selling food for a week, so we haven’t seen any results yet.
Besides, there are usually kids helping out, so it can’t be that busy.
If business gets better in the future, it won’t be too late to hire more people when we’re too busy.
"It's up to you whether to hire or not. I just feel sorry for you getting up early every day to work. It's too hard." Guo Jianping said.
Deng Qingling was overjoyed when she heard this, so she leaned over and kissed Guo Jianping on the cheek. "I know you're doing this for my own good. There's no rush to hire people. The store is busy today because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and you've worked hard."
"Then you have to reward me well tonight." Guo Jianping said.
"good."
Then the two of them started making love.
Deng Qingling gave Guo Jianping some benefits tonight.
Deng Qingling usually doesn't like to do this position, but this time she let him do it.
