Chapter 178 Ordering Furniture
Xu Zhiyi sat on the bench, and Shen Changan stood behind her with a towel to help dry her hair.
Meanwhile, Shen Wuyou, who was standing by, was helping Xu Zhiyi wash clothes.
Su came out of Old Lady Su's room after chatting and saw this scene. She was extremely happy. These days, she was very pleased with the way Shen Changan and Shen Wuyou loved their daughter-in-law.
She was also happy for Zhiyi. Although she was not Daya, she felt relieved as a mother when she saw that she had found two husbands who truly loved her.
And her daughter, Da Ya, might have been born into a good family, and would not have to meet a cowardly mother like her again! She used ten years of her life to pray for her two daughters yesterday.
First, I hope that Daya will have a safe and smooth next life, and be born into a harmonious and loved family.
Second, I wish everything will go as planned, and the couple can enjoy a loving and happy life.
Xu Zhiyi touched his hair and felt it was almost dry: "Changan, it's ok, your hair is almost dry!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Changan used his hands to straighten Xu Zhiyi’s hair.
"Changan, Wuyou, you two didn't take a shower yesterday, so you have to take a shower today, okay?"
Shen Wuyou, who was hanging clothes, heard this and said, “Wife, I will wash it after two days this time. The weather is cold now, and there will be no smell if we wash it after two days.”
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi stood up quickly and went over to twist Shen Wuyou's ear: "What? Two days? It can only be one day at most, not one day more."
"If you want to live in the same room with me in the future, I won't let you sleep in my bed if you don't wash for two days. You have to wash every day in summer."
When Shen Wuyou heard Xu Zhiyi’s words, he nodded immediately, then leaned over and asked in a low voice: “My wife, I will listen to you. If the house is built, will you let me sleep in your bed?”
Xu Zhiyi: “No”
"Why? Oh, then it's the same if you come to sleep with me, lady."
Hearing Shen Wuyou start talking nonsense again, Xu Zhiyi quickly pushed him: “Hurry up and hang up the clothes and take a shower, the house is not built yet, ahem…so let’s talk about it later!”
Hearing this, Shen Wuyou happily hung the clothes on a bamboo pole under the eaves, and then happily carried the bathtub into the kitchen.
Shen Changan looked at Xu Zhiyi who walked to his side, thought about it, and leaned close to her ear and said, "My wife, I will warm your bed in the future and I will definitely take a bath every day."
When Xu Zhiyi heard what Shen Changan said, her face got a little hot. Ahem, she promised that she was definitely not thinking about it. It was the picture that took the initiative to enter her mind. She was not a lecher.
"Ahem... Changan, you..."
Shen Changan waited for the next words, but after waiting for a long time, he still didn't get any: "Madam, what do you want to answer me?"
"That's right...that's right...you have a good awareness."
Hearing Xu Zhiyi's words, Shen Chang didn't know what he was thinking about! His face turned red!
The next day, after Xu Zhiyi got up, Su and her aunt Qin also got up.
The two of them have agreed to learn how to make bowl-shaped cakes, and this task will be left to them in the future. I hope Xu Zhiyi and his wife and their two children can sleep more, after all, it is hard work to set up the stall!
Fortunately, it is not a difficult task. After trying a few more times, the two of you can mix the batter by yourself. The most important thing is to remember the proportions. As for steaming, you can master the heat after trying it twice more.
We completed 160 bowl cakes today and after loading them onto the mule cart we are ready to set off.
Su caught up with the food box in hand: "Zhiyi, there are egg pancakes and wild vegetable buns in here, take them, you can fill your stomach when you are hungry."
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi reached out to take it: "Okay, then we'll go to the stall first!"
When the three of them arrived in the town, they had just parked the mule cart, set out the table and pastries, and someone came over!
I sold more than twenty pieces in a row, and many of them were regular customers who had bought from Fayun Temple yesterday. Yesterday, I specially promoted the location of my stall in the town.
I have accumulated quite a few regular customers over the past few days, so since I set up my stall today, people have been coming in one after another, which is a rare occurrence.
After an hour, there were only more than thirty bowl-shaped cakes left. It seemed that they were finished very quickly today.
"Sister Zhiyi, I finally found your location!"
Xu Zhiyi raised his head and saw Xue Yinyin running towards him with a smile.
"Why are you here at this time? Have you eaten? Do you want to try the cake I made? It's called bowl cake."
Xue Yinyin looked at the bowl cake on the table and was very surprised. What kind of cake was this? How could it be made so beautifully?
Xu Zhiyi gave her a red bean one: "Try the red bean one, it's the best-selling one."
"Thank you, Sister Zhiyi"
"Mm, it's delicious, really, better than what my cook cooks at home."
"If it tastes good, eat more. There's plenty."
Xue Yinyin finished eating two bowls of cakes, chatted with Xu Zhiyi for a while, looked at the last twenty cakes left on the table, and said:
"Sister Zhiyi, I want all these cakes. I want to take them back to show my grandparents. They will definitely like them."
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiyi took the oil paper and wrapped it in three packages.
Xue Yinyin insisted on giving money when she left. Xu Zhiyi knew he couldn't refuse, so he simply gave up and accepted it generously.
"Zhiyi, are the cakes sold out today?"
Xu Zhiyi was just about to close his stall when he saw the village head leading everyone over.
"Uncle Lin, there are many regular customers today, so we're closing the stall early!"
The head of the village said, "That's perfect. Your mother said you were here. We came to see you to ask you something. We plan to go to the carpenter's shop to order a bed and some simple furniture. Do you want to come with us?"
"Your mother said that you are the boss of the family. Your uncle gave me some money from your maternal family and told me to order the same style of beds as me. We can order four beds in total."
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiyi also understood what her uncle Su Ze meant. He was afraid that if she helped to pay the money, then when the time came to give it back they would have to push the buck back and forth, so she simply asked Uncle Lin to help her decide.
"Okay, we can go over now."
The head of the village said: "We also drove a mule cart, and yours can come with us. You don't have to come here later, you can go home directly."
Everyone came to the largest carpenter's shop in town.
The owner of the carpenter's shop saw so many people suddenly coming in and greeted them happily: "What kind of furniture do you want to order?"
Village head: "We are planning to order a custom bed"
Shopkeeper: "Do you want it engraved? If not, there is no choice of style. Just tell me how big you want it to be. If you want it engraved, I have the drawings to choose from, or you can bring them your own drawings."
Village head: "We are all ordinary people, we don't have to be so particular, as long as we can sleep well, the most ordinary one is fine"
"It's about five and a half feet wide and more than six feet long. I wonder how much silver a bed costs?"
Shopkeeper: "Eight hundred coins for a bed"
Xu Zhiyi: "Boss, we want more than just one bed. We need four beds for our family alone! So just give me a realistic price."
The shopkeeper's eyes widened when he heard this: "Well, if you can order ten beds, the price will be 750 coins per bed."
