Chapter 158 Introduction
"Thank you, mother." Hu Xiuxiu took the golden hairpin.
Then came the tributes to Old Lady Ye, Ye Erquan, Ye Caiping and others.
Old Mrs. Ye gave a red envelope of five hundred coins and a silver bracelet.
Wei gave the couple two hundred coins and a pair of homemade tiger-head shoes, wishing them a big fat boy next year.
Ye Caiping couldn't afford to go past Ye Erquan, so she also gave him two hundred coins, and a silver hairpin as a gift for tea.
After serving tea, Hu Xiuxiu also gave gifts to everyone.
My parents-in-law each got a new set of clothes, all made of cotton.
Old Mrs. Ye, Ye Caiping and all other family members had a pair of shoes each, even Yang Xiaoyan had one.
After serving tea, Hu Xiuxiu went straight into the kitchen and asked everyone to taste her cooking skills. Ye Yong hurried to help.
Mrs. Du looked at the loving couple and couldn't stop smiling.
…
Three days after Ye Yong got married, the order from Baiweilou finally came!
Shopkeeper Lin said that after leaving Yue'an County, the Huo La Tang in other branches was also very popular. This was only the nearby provincial capitals. The goods that were taken away last time in the branches to the north and east have not yet been delivered.
But I believe it's not bad.
Therefore, a long-term cooperation has been confirmed, and a contract has been signed for 115 wen per catty, with a production of 10,000 catties per month.
In Ye Caiping's study, Ye Jin'er and Ye Huan'er looked at the contract and danced with excitement.
"I used to think that Shopkeeper Lin was so mean, but now I think he is very cute." Ye Jiner said with a smile.
"You are a person who really loves to smell good." Ye Caiping leaned back on the armchair behind her and picked up the teacup.
Ye Huan'er was calculating on the abacus: "Baiweilou alone has 10,000 kilograms, and there are other restaurants, scattered here and there, adding up to 6,000 kilograms. That means the orders for this month are 16,000 kilograms."
"Baiweilou's price is lower, 115 per catty, a total of 1,150 taels. Other restaurants are 120 per catty, a total of 720 taels."
"After deducting all costs such as purchasing, labor and miscellaneous taxes, we can earn 57 wen per jin. Oh, Baiweilou earns 52 wen per jin. That mother can earn 862 taels a month!"
Hearing this number, Ye Jiner and Ye Huaner were excited but not very surprised.
Because of her delivery work in the past, Ye Caiping could earn more than two hundred taels a month.
Now in a workshop this big, with twenty to thirty people working, the revenue has only quadrupled.
Ye Caiping was very satisfied: "This is only the first month! Once our reputation becomes well-known, we will get more and more orders."
Ye Jin'er narrowed her eyes and smiled: "I am already very satisfied with the income I have now. This is something I never dared to think about before."
Ye Huan'er covered her mouth and laughed: "If Mr. Li knew about this, he would be so angry that he would die."
Ye Caiping said: "Don't worry, the news will reach him soon."
The mother, daughter and three of them all laughed.
"By the way, the workshop is already making so much money, what about the delivery business?" Ye Huaner said, "Now everyone can use the seasoning packets to make spicy soup, and the only one who wants to supply it is Shunkelou. There's not much money to be made. Why not just close it down!"
"I have arranged this. It's almost noon now. I'll deliver dessert to Miss Shen and talk to the supplier on the way."
After saying that, Ye Caiping left the house.
Just then, she saw Ye Daquan coming to pick up some vegetables, and smiled when she saw her: "Little sister, where is today's dessert?"
"In the kitchen."
Ye Caiping went into the kitchen and put the prepared coconut milk jelly into the basket.
Although she was very busy these days, Ye Caiping asked Ye Daquan to send sweets to Miss Chen every day.
On the day of Ye Yong's wedding, Ye Bajin was asked to send him off.
Ye Caiping came out carrying a basket: "Let's go, I'm going today too."
…
Shunkelou.
Shen Manman still sat in the window seat.
"Miss, look, is that Aunt Ye?" Xiaoqiu stuck her little head out of the window.
Shen Manman looked out the window, it was true!
Ye Caiping was getting off the ox cart when she suddenly felt something. She looked up and saw Shen Manman, and immediately greeted her, "Hello, Miss Shen."
Shen Manman curled her lips, retracted her head, and snorted coldly: "I haven't seen a shadow for so many days. Humph, playing hard to get!"
"Yes, playing hard to get!"
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a sound of footsteps.
Ye Caiping came over: "Miss Shen, long time no see."
Shen Manman rolled her eyes at her: "Oh, you still remember to come!"
"I know, of course I don't know. I've been very busy these days, but I've sent you sweets every day."
As he said that, he took out the dish of coconut milk jelly from the basket. It was in the shape of a rabbit, very cute.
Shen Manman's eyes lit up, but she still maintained her pride on her face. She pointed lightly with her delicate jade fingers wrapped in a brocade handkerchief:
"Is this made just for me, or does it belong to everyone else?"
Ye Caiping was confused. How come Lin Daiyu suddenly took over?
"Ah... this, both of my daughters have it."
Shen Manman choked, where is your sincerity?
That's all, and you still want to be her stepmother?
Ye Caiping asked: "Then do you still want to eat?"
Shen Manman choked again: “…eat.”
As he spoke, he picked up a small spoon and started eating in small bites. His eating manner was gentle and elegant.
Ye Caiping watched from the side with a motherly smile on her face.
Who doesn’t like to look at a beautiful little girl! And she even live-streamed herself eating dessert!
After Shen Manman finished eating, Ye Caiping asked pleadingly, “When can you take me to see your father?”
Shen Manman wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and glanced at her. She put down the handkerchief and said in a delicate tone:
"Sure. Come to see me here at this time tomorrow. Remember to dress nicely. But whether it succeeds or not depends on you. I can't help you with the rest."
After saying this, he stood up and led the maid away.
Ye Caiping was so happy that she turned around in a circle. It worked!
But judging from the tone of the little girl, he would not accept any students.
That’s right, since I’m living in seclusion, of course I won’t do my old job anymore.
However, as long as she sees the person, she will be confident that she can win.
She can handle the young one, so why can’t she handle the old one?
Shen Manman and her servant left Shunkelou and headed home.
Xiao Qiu said with some worry: "If the master knew that you would bring him a woman tomorrow, he would definitely be angry."
Shen Manman said: "Is that just his woman? Why, she is my own stepmother, and I don't have the right to decide?"
Xiao Qiu thought about it and said, "That's right. Miss, you are so smart!"
