Chapter 45 is very popular

Gu Dongqing snorted, pretended not to hear, and rode his tricycle towards his home.

The neighbor who was left aside looked very embarrassed.

Jiang Mingyue was on the tricycle. She smiled when she heard this and said, "This is a small business I do. Dumplings cost ten cents each. Auntie, do you want to help me with my business?"

"I'm doing business..."

No matter how thick-skinned a neighbor is, he would not want to covet other people's business items.

She smiled, scratched her head and said she was full, and she would help him next time, then turned around and walked to the other side.

Jiang Mingyue didn't take her words to heart.

Gu Dongqing rode his bike to take the old lady home, opened the door and let the old lady go in to rest.

The layout of his yard is almost identical to that of the Dong family next door. Opposite the door is a large tiled house with three rooms. To the right is Gu Dongqing's room. To the left of the main room is the guest room.

The guest room was tidy and clean, and the old lady could stay there whenever she came.

"Grandma, you rest at home first. Mingyue and I will be back in a while."

Gu Dongqing settled the old lady down before leaving.

They closed the gate and planned to set up their stall at the school.

Just as Gu Dongqing helped her onto the tricycle, a neighbor came over to ask her how she sold the dumplings.

Jiang Mingyue smiled and replied, "Fried ones are 1 cent each, and raw ones are 1 cent each."

This place belongs to the central part of China, so we have northern food like dumplings here, but in relatively small quantities.

Jiang Mingyue also found out about it when she was at the Dong family after her previous life died and saw Dong Yumei bring it back from the big city.

Today's town residents don't know much about dumplings.

After hearing what Jiang Mingyue said, they asked in confusion, how to make these raw dumplings? Do they have to be fried?

"You can also cook soup. Add water to the pot and when the water is almost boiling, put the dumplings in..."

Jiang Mingyue didn't come up with any idea to sell any food on the spur of the moment. Instead, she carefully thought about it at home and researched several ways to eat it before setting up the stall.

Take dumplings, for example.

These days, they have been eating dumplings for every meal.

Fried, steamed, boiled, all available.

She introduced the eating method to her neighbor in great detail. The neighbor nodded and bought one dollar worth of it.

"I'll buy a dollar first and go home to try it. If it tastes good, I'll come back to you next time."

The neighbor smiled and said, "When you marry Dongzi, it will be convenient for us to buy things."

This is a kind auntie.

Jiang Mingyue also smiled.

When packing the dumplings, she put an extra one in for her and did not deny that she was going to marry Gu Dongqing.

"Okay, Auntie, when you get home, take it out and put it on a plate. If you don't know how to cook it, come back and find me."

"Oh, okay, okay."

The aunt took the dumplings, paid for them and said several good things.

This time, twenty dumplings were sold and a dollar was earned. Jiang Mingyue was full of confidence in the future business.

She put the money into a small bamboo box used to store money, then carefully closed the box, patted the box while holding it, and told Gu Dongqing to leave quickly.

Gu Dongqing looked at her with a smile on his face.

"My little moon is amazing."

Jiang Mingyue glanced at the tall man beside her, feeling a little disgusted with his exaggeration.

"What I earn is just hard work pay, far less than what you guys who are actually doing business earn."

The small business she runs at the stall cannot really compare to that of Gu Dongqing and the others.

Gu Dongqing smiled and touched her hair. "You are already better than many people."

If an ordinary person encountered something like what happened to Jiang Mingyue, he would probably have been devastated long ago.

Even if I could barely get through it, I would never be as optimistic and positive as she is.

Jiang Mingyue sighed. "Haven't you heard that a mother must be strong? If I don't work hard, who will help me raise the baby in my belly?"

"Well, there's me."

When talking about children, the man's eyes and brows became even more gentle and affectionate.

Jiang Mingyue curled her lips. Didn't she know that the man that night was him? Without knowing who the other person was, she naturally made plans to take on everything alone.

Fortunately, God was especially good to her, and she accidentally found out the biological father of the child. They were not wild children of unknown origin...

The two of them rode a tricycle toward the town middle school and the central elementary school.

Jiang Mingyue originally planned to do some business when the students got out of school, but she didn't expect that all 600 dumplings would be sold out before she got to the middle school gate.

Her small bamboo box was filled with money.

After the last dumpling was sold, she couldn't wait to let Gu Dongqing go home so that she could count the money.

We sold a lot of things today. In addition to the taro cakes which are made from our own taro, the pork boxes and dumplings were all made with ingredients purchased from outside.

Pork was 1.7 yuan per pound, so she bought ten pounds, and flour was 0.3 yuan per pound, so she bought twenty pounds.

The family harvested two or three pounds of leeks, which was not counted as cost, since they were all leeks she grew herself.

The soybeans used to make soy milk are also the soybeans they planted last year, so they don’t have to be charged for.

The meat and flour cost 23 dollars, and the other miscellaneous things added up to about five dollars.

The total cost was 28 yuan, so she calculated it a little higher, saying it was 30 yuan.

The money in her box is far more than thirty yuan.

Jiang Mingyue brought the box back to Gu's house and poured the money in the box onto the eight-immortals table in the middle of the main room.

A lot of money, including one cent, two cents, one dollar, and five dollars.

The old lady came forward to help count the money.

Gu Dongqing looked at the two people working diligently, he smiled and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Jiang Mingyue was immersed in counting money. She sorted and counted the money bit by bit. After sorting out such a large amount of money, there were actually 136 yuan.

The old lady couldn't believe her eyes.

She had been doing business with Jiang Mingyue before, but their turnover had always been in the tens of yuan, at most ninety or a hundred yuan.

I didn’t expect there would be 136 pieces today!

It's only the morning!

Excluding the cost, her Erya only earned 100 yuan?

Isn't this higher than the monthly salary of those cadres?

The old lady held the money in her hand and looked at her granddaughter opposite her with some disbelief.

It's so unreal.

Jiang Mingyue took a sip of the water that Gu Dongqing poured for her, then smiled and said, "Grandma, we will earn more in the future."

She was happy, but not too surprised.

After all, I run my own business, so I have a rough idea of ​​how much my daily turnover is.

Gu Dongqing came in to call people to eat. Seeing the money piled up on the table, he smiled and asked if they wanted to change it into whole bills.

Jiang Mingyue shook her head and said there was no need to change it for the time being.

When she had saved enough change, she would save it.

"I know someone at the bank. I'll take you there next time." Gu Dongqing said.

Jiang Mingyue agreed.

After lunch, Gu Dongqing had just packed up and pestered her to go get the marriage certificate.

Jiang Mingyue glanced at the anxious man and deliberately touched her pocket. "Oh, my household registration book is missing."
