Another auntie greeted her with a smile, and Su Ying responded with a smile.
He walked all the way to his door and knocked a few times, but there was no sound from inside. It seemed that Chen Shuyun was not at home again.
Just as Su Ying lowered her head and rummaged through her bag looking for her keys, Chen Shuyun came back carrying two large vegetable baskets, chatting with the neighbors along the way.
"Sakura"
Su Ying turned around and saw that she was carrying so many things, so she hurried over and took a basket.
"Mom, where have you been? This..."
She found that one basket was full of vegetables and the other basket had meat in it.
"Mom, are you treating me?"
Chen Shuyun took out the key and opened the door, carried her own basket in, and then took the bag from Su Ying's hand.
"No, Mom makes it to sell."
She took a towel to wipe her face and hands, took out a box of biscuits from the cupboard and placed it in front of Su Ying, smiling.
"Eat. Mom bought some chicken a few days ago, but I couldn't bear to eat it. Eat some and take the rest home."
Su Ying looked at the box of biscuits, then at Chen Shuyun, and suddenly found that she seemed different. She used to be timid, but now she was much more cheerful and spoke with a smile.
"Mom, you just said you want to cook and sell?"
Chen Shuyun drank half a teacup of water and felt better. Then she told Su Ying about her experiences during this period and gave a final summary.
"Yingying, I think it's much easier to make money here in the city. I cook two large buckets of vegetables every day, plus rice and steamed buns, which is about fifty servings. I sell a serving of rice for 80 cents, making about 10 cents. That's 5 yuan a day, which is 150 yuan a month. That's more than we make in half a year tending to the crops."
Su Ying looked at Chen Shuyun in surprise. She had never expected her mother to have such talent. Was she heading down the path of a businessman?
"Mom, who are you selling all this food to?"
Chen Shuyun smiled, opened the biscuit for Su Ying and pushed it in front of her.
"Eat quickly! I always bring it to the construction site to eat. The construction site is not far from our home. The workers don't want to eat the food in the construction site cafeteria because it's not oily. They all like the food I cook."
Su Ying looked at the two large buckets placed at the door. They were much larger than the water buckets used in the countryside. There was a shoulder pole next to the buckets. Chen Shuyun must have carried the buckets to the construction site every day.
Seeing her high-spirited look, Su Ying was very happy. At least she didn't lose heart because of that scumbag Su Jianshe. She has now found her career direction, and Su Ying is much more relieved.
"Mom, you still have some money, right? Buy a bicycle and tie the bucket to it. It'll save you a lot of effort."
Chen Shuyun smiled.
"No, that money is your betrothal money. Mom won't touch it. Mom will save it for you. If you need money anytime, just come and get it."
"Mom, spend it. The betrothal money is for you too. Keep it. You also gave me the compensation money from that guy. You need to buy a bicycle."
When Su Ying got married, she asked Gu Jinghong for a bicycle, which is the one Su Ying is riding now. Su Ying also took her watch away, left her tape recorder at home, and Chen Shuyun helped Su Ying keep a gold ring.
Thinking about it this way, she felt that Chen Shuyun had quite a bit of money.
"Mom, let me ask my master tomorrow if he can get me a bicycle ticket. I'll go to the grocery store with you tomorrow at noon."
Chen Shuyun still shook her head.
"Just go to work and don't worry about me. I know what's going on. There aren't many cars to sell right now, so it would be a waste to buy a bicycle."
No matter how much she tried to persuade her, she refused to listen. Su Ying was helpless and it was too tiring to talk her out of it, so she stopped talking and thought that she would buy her a bicycle as soon as she got the ticket.
At noon, Chen Shuyun steamed buns with the dough fermented in advance. She also fried three eggs for Su Ying, but she was reluctant to eat them herself. Su Ying picked up some eggs for her for a long time, but she only ate one bite and kept pushing the plate in front of Su Ying.
