Chapter 203 Feng Miao Becomes a Profligate Merchant
The energy of a two-year-old little fat girl is limited after all.
Not long after the commotion, Xiao Nuobao became sleepy, rubbed his eyes, and fell on Feng's corrugated blanket.
He slept with his legs spread out.
Her soft and tender little hands were still holding the fabric, like two round meat buns, and the whole family wanted to take a bite.
Feng Miao came over to kiss his sister, took the fabric from her hands, and ran out of sight. Feng
, with her two daughters-in-law, surrounded Nuobao and Chun Ge'er, and sat on the kang to do needlework.
Summer clothes are light and thin, and cutting and sewing are very time-saving.
After Feng cut out the fabric for the lady's clothes, she called Feng Miao to come over and measure him again.
"Feng Miao, Lao Wu, where did the child go?" Feng looked out the window.
She was impatient, but she didn't dare to shout loudly for fear of waking up the girl.
Sun Chunxue muttered, "Lao Wu was well behaved at home for a few days, but now that the carrots are done, he's running around like crazy again. He's probably playing with Wang Fu and the others."
Li Qiqiao glanced at Feng Jing who was reading in the outer room, and whispered, "That's not necessarily true. Lao Wu had a quarrel with Lao Si this morning. Maybe he's hiding from his fourth brother, afraid that he'll be hurt by him, so he ran away."
"Why?" There were many children in the family, and Feng couldn't take care of them all, so she couldn't help but ask.
Li Qiqiao shook her head helplessly.
"This morning, Feng Miao had a stomachache, and the stalks and leaves used to wipe his butt in the toilet were all used up. The child was anxious, so he went back to the house and picked up some straw paper on the ground, thinking that Feng Jing didn't want it. Who knew that it was Feng Jing's homework that he had spent two days writing!"
When Jiang Fengjing found out, those poor pieces of rice paper had already gone into the toilet and could not be saved...
Li Qiqiao held her forehead and said, "The two children were quarreling and were about to fight. Didn't you see that they didn't say a word this morning?" Hearing
this, Feng and Sun Chunxue felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"No wonder Feng Jing was angry. If it were me, I would have beaten that kid." Feng said with narrowed eyes.
The three women smiled, and their needlework seemed to be like turning flowers, very skillful.
Soon, half of the lotus pink bellyband was sewn.
Knowing that the women were busy, Fengnian and Fenghu took over the work in the stove. They cleaned
the pot, lit the fire, chopped the meat, and heated the oil. The two brothers were busy in an orderly manner.
Listening to the crackling sound of oil smoke in the outer room, Feng nodded with satisfaction.
"Leave lunch to the two brothers. By the way, my second son's wife, please make some ice cream for us in the afternoon. It's the dog days now, the hottest time. If you don't cool down well, you won't make the family members feel hot."
After saying that, Feng looked down at the maiden.
The little girl was snoring, with a circle of sweat on her skin. Mrs. Feng found some powder for prickly heat and applied some on her neck and little crevices, then continued to pick up the needle and thread.
Not long after, lunch was ready. Li Qiqiao started to make ice cream and asked Jiang Fenghu to call Fengmiao back for dinner.
Fenghu looked for the boy in front of the school and the village chief's house, but couldn't find him.
He thought the child was still afraid of his fourth brother, so he shook his head helplessly and went home first.
But this time, the Jiang family guessed wrong.
Jiang Fengmiao was neither hiding from his fourth brother nor running around with Wangfu and the others.
At this time, the boy was staying in Xianquanju, with his hands behind his back, strolling around the house, looking for business opportunities everywhere.
Feng Miao felt wronged and guilty for having failed to help his fourth brother with his homework. It would have been fine if it was any other time, but the math problems on the paper were what Feng Jing had prepared for the boy's exam.
Knowing that his fourth brother often studied late into the night for the exam and became thin,
Feng Miao wanted to make up for it.
But he was broke, and the monthly salary for accounting for Xianquanju had long been exchanged for candied haws.
At this moment, Jiang Fengmiao had already come to the lobby of Xianquanju.
In the dog days of summer, the guests were sweating profusely, and they were not interested even if there was a watermelon in front of them.
Several men were wearing slippers, sitting on the cool mats, frowning and complaining.
"It's so hot today. No matter how I fan myself, I can't feel cool."
"Although the watermelon is cool, it is made from well water after all. It gets hot again after a while. My mouth gets mushy when I eat it."
"I really want to eat a piece of ice or some ice cream to suppress the heat."
When Xiao Fengmiao heard this, he suddenly had an idea and hurried home!
Hehe, there is a way~
"There are 23 guests in the lobby. Each person must have at least one serving, 50 coins per serving, which means one tael of silver and 150 coins..." Fengmiao is very good at math. He almost blurted out what he was thinking.
When he rushed home, he saw that there was ready-made ice cream at home. Jiang Fengmiao was very surprised and didn't need to ask his second sister-in-law to make it. He just took it and ran away.
When Li Qiqiao came out of the inner room, she looked at the empty stove and thought her eyes were blurry.
"Where is the ice cream I put here? I made twenty servings. I wanted to send some to the uncles in Fushan Hall and two bowls to Yin'er and Jinniang. Where did it go?" Li Qiqiao's eyes widened.
Feng Shi heard the voice and went down: "How could it be gone? Even if there were mice, it is impossible to take away the basin."
As soon as the words came out, Jiang Fengjing put down the book and nodded seriously.
"Yes, it was taken by a mouse."
"It's the kind of mouse that will use other people's textbooks to wipe its butt!" Feng Jing's tone could not hide the resentment.
Feng Shi and Li Qiqiao looked at each other and knew who did it, so they went out to look for it.
The two went all the way from the village entrance to Xianquanju.
I didn't expect that as soon as I entered the lobby, I saw a group of guests gathered together, stretching their arms as if they were trying to grab something, pushing and scrambling.
Xiao Fengmiao was standing in the middle of the crowd, wearing an indigo apron around her waist, her little face full of wrinkles from smiling, like a dogtail flower.
"No deception to the young or old, pure milk taste!"
"It's made from goat milk squeezed out of the farmers, ice brought back by the conductor, and cooked by a beautiful country woman. A bowl of ice cream is fifty cents, not expensive, not expensive~"
"Come on, come on, don't fight, pay the copper coins first, then the ice cream will be served."
"There are only 20 portions in total. If they are all taken, they will be gone. Come quickly
if you want to eat!" Xiao Fengmiao imitated the merchants in the city, bent over and worked very hard.
Feng and Li Qiqiao were shocked!
"Are you selling them?" Feng stared.
"A beautiful... beautiful woman from the farm?" Li Qiqiao blushed and misunderstood.
This kid... actually came to my Xianquanju... to do business.
The guests were already irritated by the heat, and now they saw the cold ice yogurt, and their mouths were watering. They handed over copper plates and silver coins, vying to buy a bowl.
Jiang Fengmiao was really a little "swindler". He said there were only 20 portions, but in fact he put a little less in each bowl, and squeezed out 25 portions.
Some guests didn't have copper coins, so they gave them silver coins. They thought the kid couldn't find the coins, so they didn't need to find them. They just had to bring the ice cream.
Feng didn't know whether to cry or laugh. She took off her shoes and wanted to spank the kid!
But the guests who wanted ice cream were too enthusiastic, and Feng couldn't squeeze them.
After a while, the whole basin of ice cream was empty. Little Fengmiao was carrying a whole apron of copper coins and silver coins, and was forced to run around the hall by Feng holding up his shoe soles. After
the guests ate the cold and delicious desserts, their mood immediately improved. When they looked at the little "profiteer", they found that he was the owner of Xianquanju.
Everyone laughed.
He quickly held Feng back so that Feng Miao could run away quickly.
