Li Fenlan felt that she seemed a little strange. She was not sad at all about her daughter's divorce. On the contrary, she smiled more in the past two days than when Yunshu just got married. It was as if someone told her that this was the best ending.
"You are such a daredevil girl! Would Lu Zhixing be willing to bring the TV home?" She smiled and shook her head, thinking that Xie Yunshu was joking: "Mom is not a child, why would she watch TV?"
Xie Yunshu snorted: "He doesn't even look at it. Besides, he owes money, isn't it natural to move his things?"
She used to like him and was willing to put on the coat of a virtuous woman, but now that they are divorced, money is the most important thing to her!
Li Fenlan thought she was joking. They hadn't divorced yet, so why would she move this thing back to her parents' home?
She poured all the potatoes into the basin and said, "Okay, go to bed quickly. You're tired after a long day!"
Xie Yunshu folded the potato bag and put it aside, then pulled Li Fenlan up: "You should go to bed too, because you still have to help with the work tomorrow! By the way, you are not allowed to do the laundry anymore. You might as well work for your daughter. I will pay you one dollar a day!"
"You're talking nonsense again!" Li Fenlan smiled and slapped her on the butt, just like when they were little: "You little girl, you're still settling accounts with your own mother! I don't want any money from you, I'll save it for your dowry in the future!"
With yesterday's experience, Xie Yunshu worked much more efficiently today.
Just around eleven o'clock, she arrived at the factory gate on her tricycle. She didn't rush to call out, but sat down to take off her hat and scarf, and then poured a large cup of hot water to cool it down. She was so busy that she didn't even pour water!
Today there was another big porcelain jar. In addition to the chili oil, she also put in a big jar of spicy radish pickles. Whoever wanted to eat it could offer a chopstick. Otherwise, this thing was worthless.
The workers can make a living by working, but they are all grown men. There are some who like to take advantage of others, but they are not many. If they want to eat her chili, they will buy something. Even if they can't bear to eat meat, at least they will buy a steamed bun.
It costs money to buy it outside, but it’s still warm when you buy it from her!
She is a little girl selling lunch boxes here, and no one will take advantage of her chili and pickles every day, so she should be relaxed even if there is someone. When doing business, you can't make money if you don't care about it.
The large cup of hot water cooled down quickly. Xie Yunshu had just taken a few sips when seven or eight men came over from the other end. They were all familiar faces.
"Girl, what are you doing today?"
The leading man was about forty years old. He was the one who brought a large group of people yesterday. When he saw Xie Yunshu, he grinned naturally and said, "You didn't bring any rice today. You have to bring vegetables and dry food!"
"Potato vermicelli stewed with pork, and a plate of stir-fried garlic, they all taste great!" Xie Yunshu smiled brightly at the grown men, her rosy face full of enthusiasm, which made people happy when they saw her.
Lifting the lid of the pot, there was a fragrant smell of meat and vegetables. Xie Yunshu took the pot swiftly and said, "Brother, we're going to have pickles today! It's free, but each person can only take one chopstick. I spent half a day cutting radish strips!"
She was very graceful and not at all shy.
Li Shengli laughed: "Don't worry, we are not the kind of people who like to take advantage of others!"
When they are hungry, they don't care about their image, they just squat on the roadside to eat. The hot food tastes like home, and the little ones are crying. They have traveled thousands of miles from home to work here. They don't know how many days they haven't eaten hot food. Now there are meat and vegetables, and the price is cheap, so they are full of energy to work!
Just after I finished my work, a dozen more people came to eat there. Most of them were regular customers from yesterday, and there were a few new faces...
As Xie Yunshu served the rice and collected the money, he was calculating in his mind that the food for forty people would be sold out early today! Sure enough, in just half an hour, the potatoes and meat stew were almost gone, and there were only three or four servings of stir-fried cabbage with vinegar left.
At this time, another acquaintance came. It was Qiangzi who had eaten the chili oil yesterday. Today he did have money with him, but it was only ten cents.
"Comrade, 놖, 놖놚 two steamed buns..." Although he was embarrassed, he still pursed his lips and glanced at the pickle jar: "Is the pickle free? 놖 Can I take two pieces and put them in the steamed buns?"
He really knows how to save money!
Xie Yunshu sighed helplessly: "I just said that although the pickles are free, you have to buy the radish strips yourself. Each person can pick up one piece with chopsticks for free. If people are picking up one piece like this, will they still eat it?"
Although radishes are cheap, they still cost money! Besides, other people buy rice flour buns when they buy vegetables, but she generously gives him pickles. This person only gave her two buns, and she only earned two cents from him. How could she still give him more pickles?
The man squatting and eating next to her burst into laughter: "Qiangzi, have some shame! You're taking advantage of a little girl. How can you be so embarrassed to let someone give you pickles when you buy something for ten cents?"
"Girl, don't pay attention to him. He's just being too arrogant! You have to spend every penny wisely. You're just indulging his bad habits!"
"It's so cold, who would be willing to come out to sell food if it's not for a living? Qiangzi is reluctant to spend money and eat less!"
Qiangzi's dark face suddenly turned red. He timidly took back the steamed bun and smiled awkwardly: "Well, then no pickles. This steamed bun is steamed soft, and it tastes good this way."
After saying that, he put the steamed bun into his pocket and did not squat here to eat like the others, but walked slowly to his workplace.
Xie Yunshu frowned and called out to him, "Wait a minute! I only told you to take less, but I didn't say I won't give it to you!"
“No need…” Qiangzi probably felt embarrassed, and waved his hand quickly: “My throat hasn’t been feeling well these past two days, so I won’t eat any salty food. Steamed buns are good…”
Xie Yunshu said unhappily: "What about the two chopsticks of pickled vegetables you just took? Do you want to eat them or not? If not, I won't sell you any more steamed buns! I'm busy, come here quickly and don't delay our business!"
The workers at work were not well dressed, but at least they were warm. If they caught a cold, they would not only miss work but also have to spend money on medicine. Only Qiangzi's cotton-padded jacket was not only ill-fitting but also tattered.
I'm not really poor, that wouldn't happen.
Qiangzi turned around in embarrassment and took out the steamed buns shamelessly: "Give me some..."
"I won't give you more!" Xie Yunshu snorted, and directly put a large chopstick of radish on his steamed bun, and scooped a spoonful of chili on it, and said fiercely: "It's the same, don't try to take advantage of me."
