Chen Guihua remembered that in her previous life, the village chief's wife made a lot of money by making pancakes in the town, and was also the first person in the village to buy a bicycle. In this life, she had to seize the opportunity before the village chief's wife started making pancakes.
So early in the morning, Chen Guihua used the wooden cart at home to drag the iron pot, flour, water, eggs, diced radish, firewood, stove and oil to go to the town.
Today happens to be market day in town, and there are a lot of people coming to town to buy things.
Chen Guihua found a relatively open place, put down her things, and started to make a fire to make pancakes.
In the past, villagers were used to growing their own vegetables for their own consumption, or taking their extra vegetables or eggs to the town to sell. No one had ever made pancakes, so Chen Guihua was the first stall selling pancakes on the street.
Chen Guihua herself also likes to cook delicious food, so as soon as the oil wok is opened, the fragrant aroma floats in the air.
"Auntie, how much is this pancake?"
As Chen Guihua was making the pancakes, she smiled and said, "Three cents each."
The passerby calculated and thought it was not bad, so he took out three cents and handed it to Shen Guihua, "Give me one!"
Chen Guihua took the three cents handed over by the other party with a smile, and handed the bread she had made to him.
The other person ate the hot pancake and nodded repeatedly, "Delicious, not bad!"
The children passing by saw others eating the pancakes and could not hide their greed at all. They all pulled their parents and clamored for some pancakes.
In the 1980s, everyone's life had just begun to improve, and parents began to be willing to spend some money on their children. Besides, it was only three cents, not too much, so they agreed to the children's request.
In this way, Chen Guihua, who had the exclusive business, was extremely busy. She originally planned to sell the noodles until the evening, but they were all sold out at two or three o'clock in the afternoon. She even regretted that she had taken less raw materials today. If she had taken more, she could have made more money.
But it’s better to finish work early so that she can go home earlier to see her two children Niu Chunsheng and Niu Xiahe.
She pushed the family's wooden cart back to the village.
When she passed by their fields on her way back to the village, she also wanted to see if Niu Tiezhu was working in the fields as required, so she pushed the wooden cart towards their fields.
It would be fine if she didn't look at it, but as soon as she did, Chen Guihua got angry again.
Niu Tiezhu was seen lying lazily under a big tree on the dam, watching Niu Chunsheng and Niu Xiahe working in the fields.
Niu Tiezhu picked up a small stone nearby and threw it at Niu Chunsheng. "Why are you so slow? Are you hungry? You can't even do this little bit of work!"
Originally, Chen Guihua thought that after last night's lesson, Niu Tiezhu had made some progress, but she didn't expect that she had overestimated Niu Tiezhu.
Chen Guihua put down the wooden cart, rolled up her sleeves, hurried to the foot of the tree, and kicked Niu Tiezhu hard in the back.
The defenseless Niu Tiezhu rolled into the field with a cry of "Ouch", his clothes covered in mud.
"Who is this stupid person looking for death..." Niu Tiezhu touched his head and stood up and turned around. "Mom...why is it you?"
Niu Tiezhu didn't expect Chen Guihua to kick him. He smiled awkwardly, "Mom, didn't you go to the market? Why are you home so soon?"
"If I don't come back, I'll become a landlord!"
After Chen Guihua rolled her eyes at Niu Tiezhu, she called out to Niu Chunsheng and Niu Xiahe in the fields, "Go home and study! School is about to start!"
Niu Chunsheng and Niu Xiahe walked up to Chen Guihua.
Shen Guihua's face was unhappy. "Why don't you two listen? I told you to read at home, why did you come to the field?"
Niu Chunsheng and Niu Xiahe didn't say anything, but glanced at Niu Tiezhu.
Without thinking too much, I knew that it was Niu Tiezhu who forced his younger brothers and sisters to do the work.
But Chen Guihua didn't point it out. Instead, she stood in front of the three children with her hands on her hips and said, "Niu Tiezhu, Mom has a task for you. From today on, if you see your younger brothers and sisters not studying well, tell me and I will teach them a lesson..."
"Okay, Mom..." Niu Tiezhu forced a proud smile on his face.
But Chen Guihua rolled her eyes at Niu Tiezhu and said, "I haven't finished what I'm saying yet. If anyone disturbs them from studying, the first person you have to help me beat up is him. If it's the person who disturbs them from studying, you can slap yourself. If you don't know how to do it, come back and tell mom, and I'll help you do it!"
"Mom..." Niu Tiezhu curled his lips, looking unhappy.
"Okay, Niu Tiezhu, you continue to work here. Mom will take them home to study."
After saying that, Chen Guihua didn't care whether Niu Tiezhu was willing or not, and pulled Niu Chunsheng and Niu Xiahe back. As they left, she deliberately bumped into Niu Tiezhu.
Although Niu Tiezhu was unhappy, he still lowered his head and worked.
Chen Guihua took her two children home and let them read and study in the house while she went back to work in the yard.
At this time, she vaguely heard the sounds of Liu Damei, Niu Dali and Niu Fugui arguing from Niu Fugui's house next door.
Chen Guihua didn’t hear clearly what they were arguing about, but she heard the words, “Where did you hide the money in my flowerpot?”
Chen Guihua smiled complacently. In her previous life, these three ungrateful people only knew how to take advantage of her hard-earned money. In this life, it would be nice to let them quarrel over some money.
Anyway, she found the sound of dogs biting each other particularly pleasant.
As she thought about it, a smile appeared on Chen Guihua's lips again.
I made a little money selling noodles today, and bought a small piece of fat meat on the way home.
Chen Guihua took the fat, cut it into minced meat, and put it in the pot to cook with rice.
The fragrance made even her mouth water.
After the rice was cooked, she picked out most of the fat and brought it to the two children along with some rice.
"Mom isn't home today, so you probably haven't eaten much. Come, eat some rice first, and then we can eat when the food is ready."
Niu Xiahe and Niu Chunsheng took the fragrant rice and started eating it with big mouthfuls.
"Mom, don't just watch us eat, eat something too!"
"Mom isn't hungry yet. I had a big meal at noon today, and I'm still feeling full!"
"Mom, this fat meat..." Niu Chunsheng paused while eating, "Why don't we leave it to my brother and dad?"
Chen Guihua waved her hand and said, "Don't worry about them. From now on, the three of us will just live our own lives. As for the others, I'm too lazy to serve them."
Niu Chunsheng looked at Chen Guihua in front of him and felt a little strange, but also very heartwarming.
Chen Guihua, who usually only has eyes for Niu Dali and Niu Tiezhu, actually spoke of the three of them in a very friendly way.
Chen Guihua looked at Niu Chunsheng, who was stunned, and urged him, "Why are you stunned? Eat quickly. This fat meat will not taste good if it gets cold."
Niu Chunsheng smiled sweetly, "Oh, I get it, Mom."
After saying that, Niu Chunsheng continued to eat with his head down, thinking in his heart that he must study harder, otherwise he would be sorry for Chen Guihua's care.
