Chapter 249: Settlement of Accounts and Dividends
The total profit these days was 1,825 yuan. After deducting the cost of 732 yuan, the net profit was 1,093 yuan.
This calculation made Yu Hui's heart burn with excitement. The money she earned this month was only a few hundred short of what Gu Huai earned in a year.
At this rate, it won't be long before she can buy a small yard in the city.
In her previous life, what she wanted most was a small yard where she could grow flowers and raise pets.
But in that era of high housing prices, owning a small yard was a luxury for her.
It should be achievable in this lifetime.
After counting the money and taking out the 109.30 yuan belonging to Qian Lan, Yu Hui opened the door and prepared to go out to make lunch.
In the living room, Gu Qiuyan, who heard that her aunt had divorced, was cursing You Shengxing and the You family.
"I thought You Shengxing was a fake person from the beginning. My mother-in-law even knocked me on the head and said I was talking nonsense. How could I be talking nonsense? I clearly have a keen eye." Gu Qiuyan said angrily.
Gu Hongmei lowered her head in embarrassment and said, "When your mother-in-law asked me what I thought of You Shengxing, I kept praising him and saying how good he was to me. Of course, your mother-in-law thought I was talking nonsense."
It was also because she was too young at that time and was blinded by love. Even after marriage, You Shengxing was very indifferent to her, and she would still make excuses for him, thinking that he was just like that.
If she is like this, how can her parents think that there is anything wrong with You Shengxing?
"Okay, don't be angry." Yu Hui stepped forward and patted Gu Qiuyan on the shoulder. "If you're still mad at your aunt, go back home tomorrow to visit your family and give her a good scolding."
Gu Qiuyan's eyes flashed, and she raised her fist, "I'll go home to visit my family tomorrow and beat him up."
"That won't do," Yu Hui objected. "You're a soldier now. You have to obey the rules and not hit anyone. If someone reports you to the army, you'll be punished."
Gu He looked at his daughter and said, "Do you think your eldest and third fathers and I are vegetarians? Is it your turn to help your aunt beat You Shengxing to vent her anger? We have already beaten him. We hit him wherever it hurts, and every punch hits the flesh."
Gu Qiuyan curled her lips and said nothing.
Yu Hui was going to prepare dinner, and Gu Qiuyan and Gu Hongmei, aunt and niece, also followed her into the kitchen to help.
When Gu Huai and Yu Qiang came back from get off work, a table full of delicious meals had already been prepared.
It was still early, so we had dinner in the yard.
There were too many people to fit at one table, so we split up into two.
A separate table was set up for the children, and Gu Qiuyan was also assigned to the children's table, which she was very dissatisfied with.
Yu Qiang brought some wine and drank with Gu Huai and Gu He.
Gu He and Yu Qiang are both very talkative people. When they meet, it's like they've met a close friend. They chat about everything under the sun, never stopping talking or drinking. Gu Huai then drinks with them.
The women focused on eating. Qian Lan wanted to ask about the bill and the division of the money, but she opened her mouth several times and couldn't ask.
After all, she was still a little embarrassed. Xiao Yu would definitely not leave her out. If she asked proactively, it would seem that she was too impatient.
Qian Lan didn't ask until the meal was over.
The men were still drinking, so Yu Hui and the others collected the empty bowls and left the table first.
A few older children also collected the bowls from the table where they were eating and wiped them clean with towels.
While Gu Hongmei and Gu Qiuyan washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen, Yu Hui called Qian Lan to the bedroom.
As soon as Yu Hui called her, Qian Lan knew why. She was so excited that her heart was pounding.
Yu Hui pulled Qian Lan to sit on the bed, took out the account book, and showed it to her while saying, "This page is where I record this month's income and expenditure. The total amount is recorded, and the daily details are at the back."
"I can't read a few words, and I can't understand this account book. No need to look at it, I trust you." Qian Lan closed the account book and handed it back to Yu Hui.
Yu Hui smiled. "Okay, then I'll just tell you the total. This month we made a total of 1,825 yuan. After deducting the cost of 732 yuan, the net profit is 1,093 yuan."
"Our split is 19:1, so the money you get this month is 109.30 yuan. I have counted out the money." As she said that, Yu Hui handed the stack of money under the pillow to Qian Lan.
Although she knew that she would get at least one hundred yuan this month, when Qian Lan really got the money in her hands, she still couldn't believe it and felt like she was dreaming.
A month ago, she was a housewife who earned no money, but now she earns a hundred yuan a month.
Qian Lan took the money with red eyes, thinking back to the days when she had to live frugally to save money, not sparing food or clothes, and was often asked by her parents-in-law and husband, "Where did all the money go?" She felt sad, but also proud.
"I, I am also a person who can earn money. I earn more than my husband, Lao Yu." She said it with a smile, but her voice was choked with sobs.
As a person with a strong ability to empathize, Yu Hui was particularly able to sympathize with Qian Lan. She hugged her and patted her back gently, "We will make more money in the future."
"Yeah." Qian Lan nodded with a sob, and wiped her face when Yu Hui let her go.
Holding the money she earned, Qian Lan felt very at ease.
She decided to celebrate the festival tomorrow and take the children to the state-owned stores in the city to buy a pair of shoes for herself and her two children, and some cloth to make clothes for her, herself, her two children, and Yu Qiang.
She has wanted to buy a pair of leather shoes for a long time, and she will go buy them tomorrow.
"By the way, Xiaohui, we now have one more staff in the noodle shop, so we can open it at night in the future. You have to take care of the children, and you can go home to take care of the children after you are done in the morning and at noon. Hongmei and I will look after the noodle shop together." Qian Lan said what she had been thinking about for a long time.
Yu Hui frowned and thought about it. She wanted to make money easily and without any fatigue, but as a partnership business, she must also pay attention to the ideas of her partners.
In fact, if we sell it at night, we may not make twice as much money, because if we can eat at night, people will not all crowd in to eat at noon, and the diners at noon will also be able to eat at night, and it can also share some of the pressure at noon.
"Then you might be a little tired, and the work hours will be longer. You might not be able to finish get off work and go home until after 8 o'clock in the evening."
Most of the dinner time is at six o'clock. Even if the dinner time is one hour, it will be past eight o'clock by the time we finish selling and cleaning up, right?
"How tiring can it be?" Qian Lan said with a smile, "Eight o'clock is perfect for getting off work. I can go home, take a shower and go straight to bed."
Yu Hui nodded, "Okay then, we'll open it in the evening after the holidays."
