After coaxing the child to sleep at night, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law began to prepare for tomorrow's business. While picking vegetables, Lin Cuixin said, "Changlin is not at home either. Can you do it alone tomorrow?"
"It's okay. If you're too busy, just sell less. You can earn as much as you can."
She is very open-minded about this matter. There is really nothing she can do about it because of insufficient manpower.
"Alas, if it weren't for the busy season in the fields, I would have wanted to bring your father over and let him look after the child so that I could concentrate on helping you."
Ye Qing knew that her mother-in-law was homesick, so she thought for a moment and said, "Let Changlin take two days off so we can go back and see my dad."
"What about the business?"
"Business can't be completed in one or two days, so these two days are not a big deal."
Lin Cuixin smiled happily, "Okay, if your dad knew we made so much money, he would definitely be happy too!"
The next morning, with the help of his mother-in-law, Ye Qing packed up the things for the stall and pushed the cart to the old place to set up the stall.
When she arrived, the other two had also arrived. The woman selling porridge took the initiative to greet her, and she responded with a smile. As for the woman selling buns, since the other person hated her, there was no need to curry favor with her.
"Sister, your mother-in-law didn't come?"
Ye Qing replied as he packed his things, "The child's father is away on a business trip, so my mother-in-law has to stay at home to take care of the child."
"I really envy you. You gave birth to three children in your lifetime. It's so enviable to see them."
Ye Qing laughed, "It's easy to give birth to a baby, but it takes a lot of effort to raise it!"
"Raising a child is never easy."
The two chatted for a few words and then began to prepare to set up their stalls. Ye Qing quickly wrapped a dozen of each filling and then started to fry them in the pan. He hurriedly ate a vegetable box while no one was around and drank two sips of water. He didn't dare to drink more for fear that he would want to go to the toilet later.
Soon people started to arrive at around seven o'clock. Many people who had eaten yesterday did not have enough, so they came early to buy some to satisfy their cravings.
"Big sister, are the prices back to the original price today?"
The first person to come was a young man with a shaved head, who looked to be about 18 or 19. When I saw the price tag was one cent higher than yesterday, I knew what was going on.
Ye Qing smiled and replied, "Yes, yesterday was the first day of business, so we gave everyone a discount. Today we're going back to the original price. Big brother, what kind of filling do you want to eat today?"
"Give me two meat dishes! And a tea egg!"
"Okay, I'll put it on for you!"
Ye Qing packed it up for him quickly, and the young man took out three cents and gave it to her.
Ye Qing pointed to the iron can on the table and said, "Just put it in there."
After he put it in, she used a clip on the side to pick out seven cents and gave it to him.
It was the first time that the young man saw someone giving change in this way, and he said with a smile, "Oh, big sister, you are really particular."
Ye Qing laughed, "When cooking, you have to pay attention to hygiene! Everyone can eat with peace of mind."
The young man gave her a thumbs up, "You are this! Busy, I will leave first."
"Go slowly, come back after you've eaten!"
"must!"
Gradually more people came. Ye Qing, who was still wearing long sleeves and long pants, was busy sweating. Because she was the only one working today, her speed was naturally not as fast as yesterday. In addition, the price had returned to the original price, so some people felt that it was not as cost-effective to eat buns, so they turned around and went to other stalls. Ye Qing didn't care about these. As long as she kept working, she was making money.
The woman selling buns felt a little proud when she saw that Ye Qing's business was much worse today and more people came to her stall.
Look, so what if it tastes good? If it’s sold at such a high price, it will become obsolete sooner or later!
"Hey! Meat buns! Delicious meat buns! Six cents each! If they don't taste good, I won't charge you!
Vegetarian buns are also available! Only 4 cents!
They were all made this morning! They are still hot! No need to queue! Just buy them and eat them! "
Many people standing in line at Ye Qing's stall hesitated when they heard her shouting. A bun and a vegetable box are about the same size, but the price is two cents different, and there is no need to queue.
Forget it, let’s eat the buns first and come back to buy the vegetable boxes when there are fewer people.
Many people had this in mind and rushed to the bun stall to buy buns.
The woman selling porridge noticed this scene, raised her eyebrows and continued to serve porridge. The fight between the two families had little impact on her. Some people who bought vegetable boxes or buns would still go to her stall to buy a bowl of porridge to go with them.
They were busy until almost eight o'clock and started to pack up the stall when no one was around. Lin Cuixin came over with the triplets.
Ye Qing glanced at the small alarm clock and asked, "Why are you here so early today? Did Yanyan and Yueyue send it over?"
"Qin Shuang helped bring it over. I ran into them when I was going downstairs, so I brought the three of them straight to you."
"Okay, I'll pack up and we can go home."
Lin Cuixin came over to help and asked, "How's business today?"
"It's OK. There are definitely fewer people than yesterday, but I haven't been idle all the time, so I can still earn some money, don't worry."
"Well, don't tire yourself out. You can earn money slowly."
After returning home and taking a short rest, Ye Qing started to count the accounts again. Today's turnover had plummeted and he only sold 4.8 yuan, of which tea eggs accounted for the majority. After all, this thing does not need to be made on the spot. If you want to eat it, you can just pack it yourself. All thirty eggs were sold out.
Because I knew I would sell less if I was alone, I prepared less noodles and stuffing than yesterday. There was some left, so I ate it at home and it wasn't wasted.
"I sold 4.8 yuan today, and the tea eggs accounted for the majority of the sales. After deducting the cost, it's only about one yuan, so I'll give it one yuan!"
Lin Cuixin nodded, "That's not a small amount. The effort you put in just now is equivalent to Changlin's daily salary. That's great!"
"Yes, slowly we can earn more and more!"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were playing with the children and discussing what to eat for lunch, when there was a knock on the door.
“Here it comes!”
"Sister-in-law? Come in quickly."
Ye Qing opened the door and saw Qin Shuang leading the child over. He smiled and invited them in.
As soon as Xingxing came in, she started playing with the triplets.
Qin Shuang smiled and said, "It's fun to have someone to play with. Xingxing is almost bored at home and keeps shouting that she wants to come and play with the triplets!"
"When you have nothing to do, bring your children here to play. Let them build up some feelings for each other, so they won't be lonely when they go back to the parenting class."
Qin Shuang laughed, "That's what I thought! Sister, I actually have something else to ask you."
"What's up?"
"You are always too busy to run the stall now, are you planning to find someone to help?"
"To be honest with you, sister-in-law, I have really thought about it, but I have just started and I haven't made any money yet. You have to pay someone for help, and I don't have the ability to do that right now."
I definitely need to find help, but I don’t have any plans to do so right now. After all, we’ve just started, and hiring people costs money.
"What if you don't want money?"
