Jiang Xueying cut a large piece of pork that had been smoked for a few days and cooked it for the children. She then went to the space to make a lot of French fries. After dinner, she packaged the rest of the French fries so that they could be sold tomorrow.
After Ye Xiaojin had his fill, he fell into a drowsy sleep, leaving only Ye Xiaoyu to help Jiang Xueying pack up.
"Xiaoyu, go to bed early. We have to get up early tomorrow to sell French fries in town!"
Afraid that Ye Xiaoyu was tired, Jiang Xueying didn't let her help. After all, the two children needed more rest, and she could do these things by herself anyway.
"Mom, I'm not tired or sleepy. You've been working all day. I can only help you with these little things!"
This call of "Mom" was sincere and heartfelt, and also represented Ye Xiaoyu's recognition of Jiang Xueying, which was earned by Jiang Xueying's true love.
Jiang Xueying, who always thought she was cold-blooded, couldn't help but be moved. She knew that Ye Xiaoyu was a thoughtful girl and it was not easy to get her approval, so it was worth it no matter how hard it was.
She had never had anything to worry about before, but from now on she has something. No matter how difficult it is, she will raise her two children.
Early the next morning, Jiang Xueying took Ye Xiaoyu to the town market to sell the prepared French fries.
Sitting on the uncle's ox cart, there were several other people from the village traveling together.
The French fries in the basket were fried by Jiang Xueying early this morning. They were sprinkled with chili powder and cumin powder, and the fragrance wafted faintly.
Jiang Xueying and Ye Xiaoyu didn't feel anything along the way, but the people sitting next to them couldn't help but look into the basket when they smelled the scent.
As people from the same village, any big or small events in one family would basically spread throughout the village, so everyone knew that Jiang Xueying had created a new business. They thought she was just selling some wild fruits or something, but unexpectedly, after selling the things, she was able to buy everything for the family. It seemed like it should be a profitable business.
"Wife of the Ye Family, looking at this big basket of things, I guess they are selling well!"
Someone couldn't help but ask first, and his eyes unconsciously looked into Jiang Xueying's basket. However, he didn't see anything after looking for a long time, and his curiosity grew. What could be so mysterious?
"It's OK, but I just need a few coins to make ends meet!"
Jiang Xueying smiled faintly and didn't say much.
Jiang Xueying used to be looked down upon by everyone in the village, not only because of her reputation as a vicious stepmother, but also because she was lazy and gluttonous. Now that she has become so capable and can make money, her life is getting better and better. Who wouldn't be jealous?
"Really? I don't know what you're selling. I've never smelled anything like this before. Show us!"
These were things for sale and were not rare. Jiang Xueying readily took out the French fries and let the people in the car have a look.
The people on the bus had never eaten French fries before, but they saw golden strips covered with red powder. The smell was fragrant and a bit pungent, and they had no idea what it was.
"What is this!"
"These are French fries, you can eat them!"
"What is this made of? What is this red thing?"
“It’s just a seasoning!”
When the few people saw the French fries, they had a thousand questions in their minds, but Jiang Xueying just smiled, said a few words, and got off the car on the pretext of arriving at her destination.
The people in the car were very disappointed and could only watch Jiang Xueying and Ye Xiaoyu get out of the car and walk towards the town.
By the time the two arrived at the location where they had set up their stall yesterday, several people were already waiting there. When they saw the mother and daughter, they immediately gathered around them. Some of them had tried the food yesterday but did not buy anything, while others had eaten it yesterday and thought it was delicious so they came to buy again.
"My dear, you are finally here. We have been waiting for a long time. Give me a few bags!"
Before Jiang Xueying set up her stall, the man who didn't buy anything yesterday hurriedly handed over the money.
Jiang Xueying smiled and asked Ye Xiaoyu to collect the money, and she handed over the packaged French fries in her hand.
The man took the fries and paid for them. He looked up and was about to speak when he saw Ye Xiaoyu busy with her head down. He was stunned for a moment and then frowned. This girl... seemed familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere!
"Hurry, hurry, give me two packs!"
Before he could think clearly, another customer nearby pushed him away, so he had to give up and turn around and leave.
It has to be said that these French fries are very popular in any era. Coupled with Jiang Xueying's special seasoning powder, they are popular among people of all ages. More than half of them were sold out in a short time, and many new customers came to taste and buy after seeing the excitement.
After a while, the remaining bags of French fries were all gone. The mother and daughter looked at today's rich harvest, packed up and went back with a smile.
When they went back, they still took the ox cart they came in. The uncle driving the cart was surprised to see that Jiang Xueying's hands, which were bulging when she went out in the morning, were now empty.
"Wife of the Ye Family, have you sold all your things?"
"yes!"
In fact, Jiang Xueying didn’t expect that French fries would be so popular here and sold out so quickly. She thought she wouldn’t be able to go back until noon!
The uncle was surprised but didn't ask any more questions. After all, these were other people's business and asking too many questions would be tactless.
After returning home, Jiang Xueying prepared dinner and took care of the two siblings. Ye Xiaoyu looked a little tired, so Jiang Xueying let her go to rest, while Ye Xiaojin was still full of energy feeding the chickens in the yard.
After resting for a while, Jiang Xueying decided to go up the mountain to take a look. After all, she still had to get some salt crystals back, and doing other things would just be a cover-up.
Ye Xiaojin also wanted to go with them, and Jiang Xueying couldn't persuade him, so she had to take him with her. The two of them said that going up the mountain to pick wild vegetables would not arouse too much suspicion.
After picking some wild vegetables and fruits in the mountains and bringing back a lot of salt crystals, they returned with a full load, so the mother and daughter slowly returned home.
As soon as I reached the door of my house, I heard Ye Xiaoyu's crying voice coming from the yard.
"Let me go, let me go!"
Jiang Xueying's eyes darkened.
Ye Xiaojin quickly threw away the things in his hands and rushed into the house. As soon as he opened the door, he saw an old woman grabbing Ye Xiaojin, and Ye Xiaojin was struggling hard.
"Don't bully my sister!"
Ye Xiaoyu rushed over regardless and bit the man's arm, protecting the panicked Ye Xiaojin.
When Jiang Xueying walked in, she heard the old man's cry of pain, and saw an acquaintance who hurriedly went up to support the old man, the youngest daughter-in-law of the Gu family. She guessed that it should be the old lady of the Gu family.
However, the Gu family and the Ye family had lost contact a long time ago. She had already taught the Gu family’s daughter-in-law a lesson when she came to cause trouble that day. What is she doing here again? Is she here to avenge her daughter-in-law?
Before she could say anything, she heard an old voice, "Don't be afraid, kids, grandma is here to pick you up!"
