"My hands are incomplete, Gu Shengmo, why don't you come to play with me?"
Gu Shengjian ran over shouting loudly.
As a result, no one paid any attention to him.
"Hey, I'm talking to you guys!"
Wen Xi said unhappily:
"I'll give you another chance and call someone again."
Gu Shengjian muttered:
"Gu Wenxi, Gu Wenxi! Is this okay?"
Wen Xi barely glanced at him.
"You'd better call me sister from now on. What are you doing here? We are busy!"
"What are you doing? It's good meat, it would be better to cook it in big chunks. How can you eat it if you put it on a stick?"
"It's a secret. I won't tell you for now. If you want to know, go to the county tomorrow and you'll find out. Then, come buy it. Since we're from the same prefecture, I'll give you a 20% discount."
Wen Xi thought to herself that this was also because of your mother's friendliness, otherwise there would be no chance of a discount.
But Gu Shengjian didn't think so. Although he didn't know what a discount was, he understood its meaning almost immediately and became unhappy:
"I am your brother after all, how can you be so stingy?"
Wen Xi stretched out her index finger and shook it:
"Don't be so ungrateful. Why don't you call me sister? You're really flexible. Just go and have fun. You're the only one who gets a 20% discount."
Seeing Wen Xi's refusal to budge, Gu Shengjian flinched. Fang, who had been watching for a while, couldn't help but laugh. Her son had never suffered any setbacks, but ever since the incident, every time he faced this girl, he was humiliated.
By the way, this girl has changed a lot!
Thinking about it, he looked at Wen Xi with some curiosity.
Wen Xi glanced at Fang with a hint of understanding, then returned to his work of removing the bones.
The two stayed for a while and then went back. The others were busy until they had finished skewering all the meat.
Originally, half a lamb would have been enough. But Wen Xi thought, since it was something new, a tasting session was necessary.
I took advantage of the free time to make a pot of mutton soup for everyone. However, I didn't have time to deal with the bones and hooves. I packed them tightly and put them in the coffin.
There is a big tree in the backyard, which was not cut down when the house was built. So now that the weather is hot, it has become the favorite place for several people to stay.
After a busy day, everyone sat under the shade of the trees to digest their food after dinner.
Mao fanned herself and asked Wen Xi:
"Have you put all the skewers in?"
"Well, don't worry, Mom! I've put everything in." Wen Xi was thankful that the coffin was still very useful. It was very good at keeping things fresh. Otherwise, the skewers would have gone bad in this hot weather.
"Have you decided on a price?"
Wen Xi rubbed his brows and said:
"I'm thinking three coins and five skewers. I'll give you one more skewers for tomorrow's event."
Mao frowned:
"Isn't it too expensive? How much is a pound of mutton?"
"It's not expensive, mother. Mutton is cheap, but that's the price with the bones. And this is the flavor we originally sold. We'll see how it goes tomorrow. If it doesn't work, we'll switch to something else. Anyway, we can't make it cheap, otherwise we'll work ourselves to death and still not make much money."
"Then let's see how things go tomorrow! If this business doesn't work out, then don't bother with it. Just embroider with your master obediently. The three of us can earn enough to support our family."
"oh……"
Wen Xi was already drowsy from sitting there, so she just casually responded. Gu Shengmo had already fallen asleep on Xiangye's lap.
Xiang Ye carefully picked up Gu Shengmo and carried him to the room. She also pushed Wen Xi aside and whispered:
"Hurry back to your room and get some sleep! Don't you have to get up early tomorrow?"
Wen Xi suddenly became alert and opened her eyes wide:
"Oh, oh, go to sleep. Mom, aunt, good night!"
Then he walked back to the house with somewhat shaky steps.
