March is over, and Da Niu and Xiao Kang are about to start attending the county school.
The two rented a small house near the county school and set off with only a few belongings.
After seeing the two off, Tian An felt empty inside and wanted to find something to do.
Thinking about what Gu Jinyan had said before, that she would make her own wedding dress in the future, she thought about learning needlework. Embroidering can also help kill time!
As a result, Tian An went to Mangzhong with great enthusiasm to learn needlework, but finally gave up after her finger was pricked by the embroidery needle for the tenth time. She was indeed not suitable for this job.
Oh! I have no motivation to do anything!
Mangzhong looked at Tian An's listless face and shook his head, saying, "Young Master has only been gone for one day, and the girl is already like this. What will happen if this continues for a long time?"
Tian An was stubborn and said, "You and Chunxi are so capable that I don't know what to do."
Mangzhong: "..." Other families would like their servants to work themselves to death, but only her daughter would complain that the servants worked too much.
Chun Xi, who had just finished feeding the chickens, also looked helpless and said casually, "If you feel bored, why don't you think about other business opportunities? If you have something to do, you won't be bored!"
Tian An's eyes lit up, and he looked at Chun Xi and smiled, "Chun Xi, Chun Xi, you really woke me up! Making money is the happiest thing, nothing else."
What other business can be done? Tian An pondered.
Just then, Mangzhong came over and asked, "Miss, there's still some braised meat. Would you like to have some for lunch?"
Huh? Braised pork? Yeah! She could even sell braised pork! If no one has ever tried it, it means they don't know how to make it.
If she goes to sell it, the business will definitely be good. Besides, people here don’t eat pig offal, so the cost of buying it to make braised meat is low. She can sell it cheaper, and more people will eat it.
The more Tian An thought about it, the more excited he became, and he kept praising Mangzhong for his intelligence.
Mangzhong looked at Tian An with a confused expression. Why did the girl suddenly think she was smart?
Tian An, having made up his mind, urged Mangzhong to prepare lunch quickly, which consisted of braised pork. He also asked Chunxi to ask if any of the farmhands knew how to drive an ox cart.
All farm work required the use of cattle. After Chen Feng sent Da Niu and Xiao Kang to the county town, he drove the cattle cart back and walked back to the county town to take care of them.
None of the three women in the family could drive a bullock cart. Besides, the world is not peaceful now, and it is not safe for several girls to go out!
After lunch, Tian An took Mangzhong out to town. The driver was Luo Youcai, a young man who had made a mistake before and still remembered it. He didn't dare to look up at Tian An, but despite his young age, he was still a pretty good driver.
After arriving in the town, Tian An originally wanted to go shopping, but unfortunately, after being to the county town so many times, he felt that the things in the town were always inferior to those in the county town.
Don’t be fooled by the low price. When converted, it’s not as cost-effective as the one in the county!
Losing interest in shopping, Tian An took the two of them directly to the only pork stall in town.
Seeing someone coming to buy meat, the stall owner immediately greeted her warmly: "Little girl, are you here to buy meat? Our pigs are slaughtered every day, so they are guaranteed to be fresh."
It must be said that business people have sharp eyes. Luo Youcai is the oldest among the three, but the stall owner could tell at a glance that Tian An was the one in charge.
Tian An thought that since he was going to the county town to set up a stall tomorrow, he might as well cook for Da Niu and Xiao Kang at the same time!
Tian An pointed at the pork belly and said, "How much is this pork belly?"
Seeing that Tian An wanted to buy pork belly, the stall owner happily introduced it to Tian An: "You are really good at shopping, little girl. Our pork belly is evenly distributed with distinct layers of fat and lean meat. It is top-quality pork belly, and the price is fair, only 18 cents per pound."
Tian An estimated that it was about right, so he said, "Then give me two pounds!"
Then Tian An asked for four pig's trotters, a pig's head, and some pig's offal.
The stall owner thought Tian An wanted the pig offal to feed the dog. After all, pig offal is smelly and fishy, and no matter how poor a person is, he would not buy it to eat because he is afraid that he will vomit out the little food he eats.
Seeing that Tian An bought a lot, he said, "No one buys pigs these days. They are thrown away or given away. If you want them, I'll give them all to you."
Tian An happily paid for the pig offal for free and waved to the stall owner before leaving: "Uncle, you are so kind. I will come to your house to buy meat next time. You can give me some pig offal as a gift then!"
Tian An bought a lot of meat and paid for it readily, which pleased the stall owner. He cheerfully responded, "No problem. As long as we have it, we'll definitely give it to you when you come."
I already had all the other things at home and didn't need to buy anything else, so I didn't buy anything else.
Whenever I saw someone selling candied haws, I would stop and buy a few strings.
Grain in Ear, Chunxi, Luo Youcai, his nephew, and Qiu Tian also had to bring a bunch. Tian An counted the people and finally bought six bunches.
The vendor was so happy that he sold six skewers at once, and he kept praising the food.
After arriving home, Luo Youcai helped to move all the things down before preparing to go back. Before leaving, Tian An gave him three strings of candied haws, one for him and the other two for Qiu Tian and his nephew Hu Zi.
Luo Youcai mechanically took the candied haws with both hands, feeling a little dizzy. There was actually a string for him. He never dreamed that the girl would not only not bear a grudge against him, but also save a portion for him when she bought something.
He thanked me foolishly and took the three strings of candied haws home as if they were treasures.
Looking at Luo Youcai who couldn't stop grinning, Tian An shook his head with amusement. It's just a string of candied haws, is it that serious?
Luo Youcai walked with three strings of candied haws in his hands, and this was the first time he was rewarded by a girl!
After giving Qiu Tian one string, he happily took the two strings of candied haws to find his father, brother, sister-in-law and nephew.
