“Uncle Wang, my father is about your age. It’s not easy for an old man to recover from a broken leg. Could you let me have it? Actually, I also want 6,000 jin. I’m too busy roasting chestnuts.”
If you're going to be a street vendor, who cares about saving face? Making money is the most important thing.
"You two decide for yourselves. If you want it, come here at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. I still have to go back to cook for my daughter-in-law."
Yang Yufen was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, young lady, we haven't discussed the price yet."
Wang Dazhi was the first to realize that they needed a lot, so they couldn't calculate it like Yang Yufen did when she sold them in small quantities.
"Two points lower."
"Three points."
"Never mind then, I can sell them all."
Yang Yufen got on her tricycle and was about to leave.
"Two cents, two cents, little sister, I'll come over first thing tomorrow morning after I get the money ready."
"There will only be 1,000 jin tomorrow. I'll tell you when to haul the rest tomorrow."
Upon hearing that it was only a thousand catties, the two men's eyes lit up with excitement.
We can't even sell enough for two days.
Unfortunately, Yang Yufen didn't care and rode her tricycle into the family compound, preventing them from getting in.
When I got home, I was surprised to find Qin Nian there.
"You're leaving get off work so early today?"
Yang Yufen spoke, and then noticed that Qin Nian's expression was not quite right.
"What's wrong? Where does it hurt?"
"Mom, I'm fine, I just need to rest for a while."
Qin Nian waved her hand.
Upon hearing this, Yang Yufen suddenly realized something.
"Did you throw up? Does it make you feel unwell? Mom will get you some warm water, go back to your room and rest."
Qin Nian nodded. Her teacher's wife had told her about it before, but she didn't expect it to be so bad. At noon, the cafeteria served fish, and she couldn't stop eating it after just one whiff. When her teacher saw that she was in a really bad state, he told her to come back and rest.
Yang Yufen opened the pot of food, took it out and cooked a new pot of millet porridge, adding only a little brown sugar, and then brought it into the house.
"Niannian, see if you can eat a little."
Qin Nian felt nauseous and vomited several times. She didn't eat lunch or dinner.
But when her mother-in-law brought it to her, Qin Nian thought she should eat some.
The millet porridge didn't have much flavor, only the sweetness of brown sugar. Qin Nian tentatively took a sip, and it wasn't too bad. She took another sip, but after a few sips, she felt like her stomach was about to feel uncomfortable again.
Yang Yufen had been watching Qin Nian's expression closely, and upon seeing this, she immediately took the porridge away.
"Don't force yourself. This is how it is during pregnancy. The baby will only let you eat a few bites, and you won't want to eat even a little bit more."
Yang Yufen comforted Qin Nian, and then brought a basin of hot water for Qin Nian to wash up. Qin Nian's complexion was much better than when she came back.
"Go to sleep. I'll keep it warm for you. You can drink some more later when you feel better."
Qin Nian was indeed exhausted, so she nodded and fell asleep.
Yang Yufen saw that Qin Nian was asleep before she went to find Aunt Wang.
"I sold all the sweet potatoes, leaving only about 2,000 jin."
"They've all been sold?"
Even Aunt Wang was shocked. She was already shocked when she sold two or three hundred catties a day, but this was only a few days! She knew a little about how many sweet potatoes her son had.
"Two people who saw that sweet potatoes could be sold for money approached me wanting to buy them from me, and I agreed. Although I would earn less, I thought it was more important for Nian Nian's health."
