"Xue'er, how much profit does the sugar factory make every day?"
"Today's gross profit is exactly two hundred taels!"
Tang Youyou quickly calculated in her mind: Two hundred taels a day means six thousand taels a month, and after deducting the costs, she can make five thousand taels! Five thousand taels a month for Yueyoufang, one thousand taels a month for the puppet workshop, and her own commission... she can earn it back in four months at most!
"Xue'er, the weather has been warm recently, so the yogurt will ferment more easily. It's time to add some new products. Plus, yogurt tastes delicious with bread! You have a lot of work to do, but we can pay you back in four months at most!"
The boys were all stunned.
Xiaoshan said silently, "Mom, is our family that rich? Do we make five thousand taels a month?"
Why does it sound like a fairy tale?
"Anything is possible. Eat quickly and move tomorrow!"
He turned to look at Bai Ruoyi, "Boss, you can stay in the village. I bought Yuan Ge'er and his family's house and put your name on it! In half a year, the workshop will be handed over to you and Huahua!"
The sudden change shocked Bai Ruoyi beyond words.
"Mom...you don't want your son anymore?"
Tang Youyou chuckled, "What nonsense are you talking about? What makes me happiest is that I have a house in the city and a home in the village! In the future, you can study in the clan school.
I tell you I can live wherever I want! No one can stop me! "
Children: Who can control you?
Half a year later, Jia Fugui was hesitant to speak when he received the money.
"What's wrong? Don't want it? I'll take it back!"
Yue Niang chuckled and took out two hundred taels from her pocket and stuffed them into her pocket.
"Youyou, what's our relationship? You're still giving me loan sharking money? Isn't that a slap in the face?"
Tang Youyou raised the banknote in her hand and said, "Alright, you don't need me to add makeup to Ruoxue!"
"Youyou, there's something I want to discuss with you!"
"What's the matter? Why are you so embarrassed?"
"Alas... my mother-in-law is so happy to have a son, and now the two children are getting married, so I have to provide them with a way to make a living, right?
I discussed with Fugui about handing over Yueyoufang and Jiatangfang in Mi County to Ruoxue, but the profits from the two shops in the prefecture city will be given to Xueer!"
Tang Youyou waved her hand, "This is about money, let's talk business. The flow of people in the city is much larger, and Mi County can't compare to the city!"
She pondered for a few seconds, "Yue Niang, how about this? I'll shamelessly take Fucheng Jiatangfang and give it to Xue'er. Fucheng Yueyoufang will still be run as before."
Yue Niang was somewhat touched and held her hand, "Thank you, Youyou!"
"In the end, I'm the one who got the advantage. Let's go to Mi County to see Sister Li! We also have to attend Brother Jiang's wedding banquet the day after tomorrow."
"He's also lucky. In the end, Madam Jiang even helped him. It's said that the woman was willing to marry him because she really liked Zhen'er. Even though the woman has fallen on hard times, he still got a great advantage."
Jia Fugui disagreed. "Don't talk nonsense. Marriage is destined by heaven. Although Brother Jiang is a bit old-fashioned, he has good character, and that's what matters most!"
Tang Youyou nodded, "Brother is right. One carrot, one hole. Living behind closed doors, only he can understand the ups and downs. But right now, it seems that this marriage is indeed a good one. Let's go quickly..."
As soon as they arrived at Li's house, they heard Li's complaints: "I've always wanted a daughter. If you have the ability, you can give birth to one yourself. I'm an old clam and I'm suffering so much!"
Li Baisong's voice pleaded for mercy: "Oh... Madam, I just mentioned it. Is it necessary for you to make such a fuss?"
"Your words hit me right in the heart. I heard it all the time on the day of delivery. How could it be another son?"
"Alright, alright, it's all my fault. Don't be angry. You're still in confinement after childbirth!"
The three of them looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
…………
New Year's Eve five years later.
The children sat around the dining table and chatted.
"Brother Yuan actually passed the imperial examination like our third brother. What a surprise!" Twelve-year-old Xiao Si said in surprise.
Seventeen-year-old Xiaoshan scolded softly, "Xiaosi, don't talk nonsense. Brother Yuan worked very hard, but you passed the imperial examination at the age of ten. Why haven't you made any progress in the past two years? The teacher once said that we should always reflect on ourselves, have you forgotten?"
Everyone observed two moments of silence for him.
He pouted, "Why don't you talk about the second and eldest brothers? They are both still just students!"
"You've forgotten what mother said: there are top talents in every field. Do what you are good at. My eldest brother and his wife have managed the workshop in perfect order!"
“My eldest brother also served as the chief clerk and was commended many times;
My second brother was only twenty years old, but he was famous far and wide, and the wine he brewed was even sent to the palace by my mother;
The eldest sister is decisive and efficient, and is also a well-known figure in the city's Chamber of Commerce.
"Brother, you are the smartest, but why are you so naughty? Have you forgotten the hard times we had as children?"
Xiaoqing, who had her head hung down, suddenly burst into tears.
The two-year-old cute baby (Bai Ruoyi's little daughter) slid down the stool and clung to her with her short legs.
"Auntie, hug me!"
Xiaoqing wiped her tears and picked up the cute baby.
"Don't cry, little aunt, adorable baby..."
Xue'er glared at Xiaoshan, who was a little embarrassed. "Qing'er, I..."
"Brother Xiaoshan, it's okay. When I thought I couldn't survive, it was Auntie who saved me from the human traffickers. I wasn't destined to die.
"Over the past two years, I've had good food and a good place to live, and I've even learned a lot of words! I just feel like these days are so unreal! I'm so scared they'll suddenly disappear!"
Xue'er touched Xiaoqing's cheek and said, "Silly girl, everything that happened in the past is in the past. Those evil people who bullied us have been taken away by God! From now on, you can live your life in peace!"
"Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!" The knocking on the door was very urgent.
