Chapter 148: Snowy Weather, Beware of Villains
"If you have an idea, just go ahead and do it. Do you have enough money?" Zhao Zhilan asked.
He Chunxiu quickly said, "That's enough, mother. Since we opened the shop, I've kept track of every single one of our payments. At the end of the year, I know exactly how much I should hand over to you and how much I should give to my sister-in-law and the others."
Now that the eldest wife has taken over the job of making tofu, she has also helped them grind the beans and other things. He Chunxiu must remember this.
"Well, we are a family, why do we need to divide it so clearly?" Wang Cailian smiled.
Although I don't know how much truth there is in her words, at least she was such a stingy person in the past, but now she dares to say such words openly.
Zhao Zhilan was very pleased.
While the adults discussed building a mill, the four children ate their meals in silence.
Baoya finished a boiled egg, pulled He Chunxiu's sleeve, and said, "Mom, our family has built a mill, which will make it much more convenient to make soy milk and tofu pudding in the future."
"Yes." He Chunxiu reached out to help her wipe the egg yolk residue off the corner of her mouth.
"Wouldn't it be convenient if my aunt and her family could open a tofu shop in town?"
It is indeed convenient, and it saves Xiaodouzi from driving the cart to pull it.
He Chunxiu glanced at Zhao Zhilan, who nodded.
Wang Cailian's eyes also lit up. She and Dalang had been developing business in Zhoucun for so long, why didn't they think of this?
However, when he thought about the surrounding villages and how they had already accumulated a lot of customers who bought tofu, he became a little hesitant.
Once I go to town, I won’t be able to take care of my family.
Seeing her embarrassment, Yun Dalang said, "Since we can't handle both ends, we can hire someone. You just don't want to spend money."
"Yes," Zhao Zhilan said, "Once the new house is built, we'll renovate the east and west wings. We can turn the west wing into a mill, and you can continue making tofu. If you're short on manpower, hire someone. I'll help keep an eye on things for you."
"Mom." Wang Cailian was a little choked up when she called out.
She used to be so stingy that she even counted the few cents her family had. Now she has tried to let go, and her family is just as good to her.
Baoya gave her family some advice, and her mother offered to help, telling them to just go for it.
Seeing her eyes were red, Zhao Zhilan put down her chopsticks, patted her hands, and said, "Just do your best. We are a family, don't have any second thoughts."
"I know." Wang Cailian responded very sincerely.
"Then I'll mention it to Xiaodouzi when he comes tomorrow. I also need to talk to Boss Zhu about it."
They are now the exclusive source of goods for Ke Lai Xiang. If they open a tofu shop in the town, they have to discuss the operation plan with Zhu Qi.
Whether to open an exclusive tofu shop for Ke Lai Xiang, or to open his own shop and go it alone, but naturally supply only to Ke Lai Xiang, these are still subject to negotiation.
"You can just talk to Boss Zhu about these things yourself." Zhao Zhilan said.
The task of making tofu is now entirely handed over to the eldest wife, and she has completely given up on it.
Apart from the last time they cooperated with Ke Laixiang to supply them with a lot of bacon and sausages, the rest of the matters were handled by Wang Cailian and Yun Dalang themselves.
After the meal, everything was sorted out. Not only was the matter of the third wife's mill settled, but the first wife's tofu shop also had preliminary plans.
Zhao Zhilan glanced at Yun Erlang and Li Rongyue who were sitting at the table eating quietly, and felt a little guilty.
The second wife and her husband were both honest people, and they worked the hardest at home. Seeing that the first and third wives had their own livelihoods, while the second wife was still guarding the few acres of land at home, she knew that she was a little sorry for Yun Erlang and his wife, but she couldn't think of any good solution.
When the profits are distributed at the end of the year, I will give more to the second wife, she sighed and thought to herself.
The three daughters-in-law were cleaning the table inside and outside. Zhao Zhilan left the east wing without saying a word and went to the yard to tend to the animals.
Baoya looked at her grandmother's slightly hunched back and sighed with a gloomy face. Her grandmother was worried about her second aunt's family, so she had to help her think of a solution.
I was staring outside in a daze when someone suddenly patted my shoulder.
When she turned around, she saw Yunyue standing behind her with a smile on her face: "Fourth sister, what's wrong?"
"There's so much snow in the yard. Let's make a snowman tomorrow."
"Okay." Baoya replied.
Then he asked, "Fourth sister, do you know what Second Uncle and Second Uncle's wife are good at?"
"A specialty?" Yun Yue frowned and thought for a moment. "My mother is very good at work and is an expert at keeping the house in order. As for my father, I see him working in the fields every day. He must be doing well."
Baoya: ...
But none of these make money.
Yunyue couldn't get any information from him, so she wanted to go back and ask Yunhua again.
After dinner, I cleaned up and washed up, and it was almost time to go to bed.
I don’t know if it was because it had just snowed and the weather was cold, but the three little girls slept much more quietly and no one kicked off the quilt.
But Baoya slept soundly that night, actually because she dreamed of that sour bird again.
There was a pitch black scene in front of me, and Suanyou walked towards me with his long and thin legs.
Baoya looked at the six twinkling eyes on its huge head, and sighed with her chubby little hands supporting her cheeks.
"Oh, I really don't want to see you at all."
After all, the appearance of this thing is a sign of disaster.
That sour and six eyes rolled their eyes together and glared at Baoya: "Do you think I want to see you?"
"Then why did you come into my dream?" Baoya puffed out her cheeks, disturbing her sleep!
"Just a reminder for you, lest you accuse me of cheating you again." He said sourly and aggrievedly.
"Okay, then you say it." The little girl looked as if she agreed.
Acid and:
Why do I feel a little humble?
"The snow is slippery, beware of villains. You must remember this."
After saying this, Suanyu flapped its big wings and flew towards the endless darkness.
He disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Baoya was thinking about these two sentences, and woke up while thinking about them.
It was already bright outside, and Yunhua and Yunyue were still sleeping soundly beside him.
She rubbed her eyes and sat up. Zhao Zhilan's voice rang out from behind her: "Baoya, are you awake? Get up and eat something."
"Grandma." Baoya turned around and saw Zhao Zhilan sitting on the kang sewing cotton clothes for them.
Thinking of what Suanyu said to her in the dream, she crawled out of the bed and snuggled up to Zhao Zhilan.
"Let's take a day off. It snowed so heavily yesterday that it's dangerous to work today."
Zhao Zhilan saw that her eyes were as bright as stars, and knew that she might have dreamed about something again.
Smiling, he stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of her nose, saying, "Okay, then I'll tell them to take a day off. What about your mother? Will she take a break?"
Baoya nodded: "Rest!"
Building a house is dangerous due to the slippery conditions in the snow, and going to town is equally dangerous.
I just don't know what this villain is referring to.
