Chapter 26 Qin Ru
26 Qin Ru
"What do you mean?" Li Dahua didn't understand.
Du Jiang: "To put it simply, if you buy from her, you will earn less, but you don't have to go through the trouble of making tea eggs yourself. You can just carry the goods and sell them directly!"
Li Dahua's eyes lit up. "Uncle, you are really smart. You are right. This is indeed a good idea! I will go talk to her now."
He came over without saying a word. Du Jiang wanted to say that it was too late now that the person was not there.
At Old Qin's house, Qin's mother was cooking tea eggs with Tang Xue.
Seeing her shouting outside the door, Qin's mother came out.
"It's Dahua, what's wrong?"
Li Dahua smiled and said, "I'm here to look for Shen Yiyi. Is she home?"
"She's not at home. What do you want from her? I'll tell her when she comes back." Qin's mother said.
Li Dahua smiled and said, "Yi Yi is selling tea leaf eggs, so I came to ask if you can sell them to me wholesale. I also want to try selling tea leaf eggs."
Mother Qin heard this and said, "That's fine. I'll tell Yi Yi when she comes back and ask her if it's okay. Then I'll tell you."
"Okay then." Li Dahua looked into the kitchen and asked, "Are you cooking tea eggs?"
"Well, ask my niece from my mother's side to come over and help." Mother Qin nodded.
Li Dahua said, "You've hired someone? Business must be pretty good, right?"
Qin's mother didn't answer the question, but asked her, "Why do you suddenly want to sell tea eggs? Why don't you go with your brother-in-law and try selling them with your hairpin?"
"I want to sell it, but my uncle doesn't agree. He says that family members shouldn't do the same job and shouldn't have financial dealings to avoid disputes. He simply rejected me." Li Dahua had long been thinking about the source of her brother-in-law's flower rope.
But he was stopped by the saying that brothers should not share wealth.
But she didn't give up. She asked her mother-in-law many times in private, but her mother-in-law didn't know the answer to any of her questions, which made her very angry.
I have no other choice but to learn from Shen Yiyi and sell tea eggs.
Mother Qin thought that the boy from the Du family was a thief.
"Okay, I'll tell Yi Yi when she comes back."
Li Dahua was too embarrassed to go into the kitchen, so she went back.
Shen Yiyi, who was selling tea leaf eggs outside, didn't know about this yet. She was staring at her bicycle and trying not to sell the tea leaf eggs too hot.
Once she entered the living quarters, she would push her bicycle and shout as she walked: "Tea leaf eggs for sale, fragrant and delicious tea leaf eggs."
Look, during a rush hour, several people come up and buy two or three kilograms at a time. Ten kilograms of tea leaf eggs are really not easy to sell.
When Shen Yiyi was about to push the cart and continue hawking, a surprised voice came from behind, "Yiyi?"
Shen Yiyi turned around and saw her second aunt Qin Ru.
"Second sister? Do you live here?" Shen Yiyi asked in surprise.
The original owner had visited Qin Ru with Qin's mother, and she remembered that her aunt didn't live here!
Qin Ru was stunned: "I came here to do some work."
She works at the Women's Federation and came here to mediate family conflicts. How could she have expected to meet her brother's wife selling tea eggs here?
After realizing what was happening, he hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Why are you selling tea eggs?"
She was too busy this month, so she hasn't been back to her parents' home yet. She usually goes back once or twice a month, but she didn't go back this month. Did something bad happen at home? Is my sister-in-law forced to sell tea eggs?
Could it be that her parents had some health problems, or that something happened to her brother in the army and her family didn't tell her?
This time, Qin Rulian thought a lot.
Shen Yiyi smiled and said, "I'm just sitting around at home with nothing to do. I'm just sitting around with nothing to do, so I might as well go out and find something to do."
Qin Ru was relieved when she heard this, "Is there really something wrong at home?"
"Second sister, what are you thinking about? What could possibly happen at home?" Shen Yiyi laughed.
"Are you selling tea leaf eggs?" At this time, a man came over with a pot and asked.
His neighbor just bought it, so he came over to look for it.
"Yes, sir. Please come and take a look. If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay for it." Shen Yiyi greeted him immediately.
"If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay. But I ate it and deliberately said it didn't taste good." The old man said with a smile.
"That's no big deal. Just consider it a gift to you. It's not like I can't afford an egg." Shen Yiyi said with a smile, and handed him one and asked him to try it.
The master was really rude. He took it, peeled it, tasted it, and immediately gave Shen Yiyi a thumbs up. "It's delicious, with plenty of ingredients. It tastes just like the authentic tea leaf eggs I had in the big hotel before! Did you make this yourself?"
"Master, you have a good eye. This is what I make at home. The profit is not high, but I just want it to be clean and authentic, and my customers can eat with peace of mind." Shen Yiyi said with a smile.
"Not bad, not bad. Give me twenty." The grandfather handed her the pot to fill with eggs.
Shen Yiyi was surprised, "Master, you are selling so many? You don't have to buy so much at once. It's hot this day and the tea leaf eggs will taste worse if they are left for too long. If you want to eat them, I'll come back tomorrow and order freshly cooked tea leaf eggs."
The grandfather smiled and said, "This is the first time I've seen someone in business advise people not to buy so much. You are a real person. But I'm not eating all of it myself. I have more than a dozen grandchildren. If each of them has one, they'll be gone."
"Oh, you are so lucky, Master. You have more than ten grandchildren. What a large family!" Shen Yiyi said with a smile as she packed the tea leaf eggs. "One tea leaf egg is 20 cents. Twenty eggs is 4 yuan."
"I just ate one of yours."
"Forget about that one, give it to the master. Didn't I tell you that I can still afford a tea leaf egg?" Shen Yiyi smiled.
The master laughed, but he charged her four dollars and twenty cents, "You are selling tea leaf eggs on a small scale, so I won't take advantage of you."
Shen Yiyi smiled, "Thank you very much, Master."
The master smiled and nodded, then left with a pot of tea eggs.
"Second sister, do you still have work to do? If you do, go and do it first, don't worry about me." Shen Yiyi saw that her second aunt was still there, and almost forgot about her. She hurriedly said, and at the same time, she also wrapped several tea eggs for Qin Ru, "Second sister, you keep them for yourself."
Qin Ru was stunned.
Is this really her sister-in-law who is so shy that she dares not even speak loudly?
It’s only been a short time since I last went home, how come you have changed so much!
Qiaoqiao now looks neat and energetic, completely different from before.
"No...no need." Qin Ru was a little stuttering.
Shen Yiyi smiled and pushed it over, "Why are you being so polite to me?"
"Then you better be careful. I'll go back first." Qin Ru said.
"Second sister, if you have time, please bring the children home for dinner. Mom misses you too." Shen Yiyi said.
"good."
Shen Yiyi then rode her bicycle to sell somewhere else.
Qin Ru glanced at her sister-in-law's back. Today's work was almost done, so she went to call her colleagues to go back to the Women's Federation without saying a word.
Since there was nothing to do at work, Qin Ru went home without saying anything, picked up two bags of brown sugar, and told her mother-in-law.
"It's almost time for lunch. Have lunch first and then go back," said her mother-in-law.
"No need, I'll go directly to my mother's house to eat." Qin Ru said.
The two younger children wanted to go back to their grandparents' house with her, but Qin Ru dismissed them, "I'll take you there next time. Stay at home today."
