Chapter 171 We two sisters-in-law are all blessed by our younger sister-in-law

Longtan Street.

A small shop with a small area is filled with various agricultural products. Even though today is not a market day, there are customers coming from time to time. It can be seen that the business of this shop is indeed very good and it already has a fixed customer base.

At this time, the people guarding the shop were none other than Zhang Xiuping's eldest and second sisters-in-law.

"Hello, do you need anything else?"

"Okay, that's $2.64."

"Two dollars and seventy cents for you, six cents in change."

"Take care, and come back next time!"

“…”

After watching the customer leave, Zhang Ersao couldn't help but sighed, "Sister-in-law, when I was a girl, what I envied the most were the female salespeople working in the supply and marketing cooperatives. They worked without any exposure to the sun or the wind, and they could earn such a high salary just by selling things. I heard that they also had many hidden benefits.

At that time, my biggest dream was to work in a supply and marketing cooperative and become a salesperson. "

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but laugh and said, "This is not just your dream. Which girl in the village doesn't want to be a salesperson?"

Mrs. Zhang nodded and smiled, "Yes, being a salesperson is so respectable, and the salary is so good. Unfortunately, it's just thinking like that. With a family background like ours and not having received much education, it's absolutely impossible for us to become a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative."

Mrs. Zhang had to agree with this. In those days, without a few years of education and without any family connections, it was really a fantasy and an absolutely impossible dream to want to become a salesperson, one of the eight major employees.

"There's no hope when you're a girl, let alone after you get married!"

At this point, Zhang Ersao changed her tone and said with a smile: "But who would have known that now we are not only sales clerks, but also the boss lady in other people's eyes. It really proves the saying - things are unpredictable!"

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "We both owe everything to our sister-in-law!"

Mrs. Zhang nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, we two sisters-in-law are really blessed by our sister-in-law. If it weren't for her help, we would still be farming and feeding our children in the village. How could we sit here and make money easily like we do now!"

Mrs. Zhang said, "Now that Pingmei is pregnant, we should take some time to go and see her."

Mrs. Zhang said, "I have the same idea. Why don't we discuss it with my father-in-law and mother-in-law when we go back for dinner this afternoon and take some time to go and see Pingmei together. Anyway, as long as it's not a market day, it doesn't matter if we close the door for a day."

Mrs. Zhang hummed and said, "Okay, I'll discuss this with my parents-in-law when I get home this afternoon."

Just as they were chatting about this, another customer came in, so the two stopped the topic and greeted the guest warmly.

…

In the afternoon, brothers Zhang Shouguo and Zhang Shoumin rode their bicycles back to the store with their loads of agricultural products, which they had purchased from remote mountain villages.

Since the store opened, the division of labor has been clear: the Zhang brothers are responsible for collecting goods in the countryside, while their wives are responsible for selling them.

As for their father and two younger brothers, they would farm the fields at home in their spare time, and would come out together to help sell and deliver goods on market days.

Their mothers help take care of the children at home.

After putting the goods away, it was getting late, so the two brothers closed the shop, each took their wife, and happily went home for dinner.

When I got home, my mother had already prepared dinner and was waiting for me.

Seeing the two large bowls of yellow fried pork on the table, Mrs. Zhang Da and Mrs. Zhang Er couldn't help but look at each other, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

They have been married to the Zhang family for several years, and they know their mother-in-law's personality very well.

Not to mention the difficult times in the past, let’s just say that we have made a lot of money since opening the store this year. However, my mother-in-law is still relatively frugal when it comes to food. She only buys about one pound of meat each time, so that the family can enjoy it. It is impossible for her to eat to her heart’s content.

Of course, now that I’m making money, there are some differences from before. I used to buy meat rarely once a month, but now I buy meat at least once a week. There is still a difference.

Today, the two big bowls of meat were estimated to weigh about three or four pounds, which was why Mrs. Zhang Da and Mrs. Zhang Er were so surprised.

Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but ask, "Mom, why did you buy so much meat today? Is there something happy?"

Mother Zhang said with a smile: "I didn't buy this meat. It was brought by the children's uncle."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang Dasao and Mrs. Zhang Ersao suddenly realized that it was no wonder that there was so much meat on the table today. It turned out that their brother-in-law had come.

Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "What a coincidence. When I was in the store today, I discussed it with my eldest sister-in-law and was planning to take some time to go see Pingmei together!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "We want to go together as a family. What do you think, Mom and Dad?"

Hearing this, the brothers Zhang Shouguo and Zhang Shoujun felt relieved. Their family could be what it is today thanks to their younger sister. Now their daughter-in-law took the initiative to offer to visit their younger sister, so they, as brothers, were naturally happy.

Zhang's father and mother were also very happy that their two daughters-in-law had this intention.

Mother Zhang smiled and said, "That's really a coincidence. Your brother-in-law came here today to invite our family to their house for a wedding banquet the day after tomorrow."

Mrs. Zhang asked, "Mom, what kind of wedding wine are we drinking?"

Thinking of the news her son-in-law told her, Zhang's mother exclaimed, "Xiuping's brother-in-law who is in high school was admitted to BJ University this year!"

When these words were spoken, except for Zhang's father who already knew the inside story, everyone else was shocked. They didn't know how valuable BJ University was, but being able to get into the university was already very impressive to them.

What’s more, I was admitted to a university in the capital, which is even more awesome.

Zhang's mother was completely surprised by her son and daughter-in-law's shock. She then relayed the news her son-in-law had told her to them one by one. Finally, she said, "Here's my plan. Tomorrow morning, my old man and I will take Xiaojun, Xiaoshan and the children to Xiuping's house. You two have bicycles, so wait until the store closes in the afternoon and then ride back with your wives. What do you think?"

Zhang Shouguo nodded and said, "Mom, your arrangement is very good. This will not affect our business tomorrow. We only need to close the store for one day the day after tomorrow."

Others also agreed with this arrangement.

Zhang's mother said happily, "Then it's settled. My in-laws have invited the county troupe to perform a play. I will stay with the children for a few more days this time and will come back after the play is over. When you come back, you can solve the problem of eating by yourselves."
