Chapter 147: Teach a Man to Fish (Part 1)
After Jiang Zhiluo had a conversation with her parents, her younger brothers and sisters gathered around Cui Hejin and listened to him tell stories and share some knowledge from books.
Jiang Yunshu listened very carefully.
After reading it, Jiang Zhiluo whispered, "I see that my second brother really likes reading. My husband also said before that he has talent."
When they heard about reading, Jiang Xiangchuan and Ye's expressions changed.
The faces of the parents changed. Jiang Zhiluo realized something and said, "Dad and Mom, our family's life will definitely get better in the future. We will have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear, and we will have money in our hands."
Although her parents dote on her, she doesn't control them.
She hopes that her younger brothers and sisters at home are well, but these are also arranged by her parents.
Ye didn't want her daughter to misunderstand, so she sighed and said, "Zhiluo, Dad and Mom know you want the best for your brothers and sisters."
"But the world is not peaceful, and we heard that the emperor is not a good emperor."
"It's unrealistic to ask them to study and take exams like this."
"We just want you all to be safe and sound. We don't want you to become an official or go to a place like the capital."
Jiang Zhiluo was stunned for a moment. After hearing what her mother said, she always felt that her mother didn't look like a villager.
"Mother, have you ever been to the capital?"
Ye Shi didn't dare to meet Jiang Zhiluo's gaze, and lowered her head and said, "No, I haven't been there. I heard people talking about it when I went to town, so I know a little bit about it."
Jiang Zhiluo knew nothing about the court, emperor and capital of this era.
However, she knew that the current emperor had exiled the Cui family, beheaded Cui Hejin's father and grandfather, and had Cui Hejin abused in prison.
Cui Hejin had hidden injuries, his martial arts skills were crippled, and his tendons were cut, all of which were caused at that time.
Thinking of this, a dangerous cold light flashed across Jiang Zhiluo's eyes.
Jiang Xiangchuan also spoke up: "Your mother is right. I've also heard some news. If there's a war, then there's a war. It's better to be peaceful and stable."
When Jiang Xiangchuan said this, he didn't know what he was thinking about, and his expression was a little sad.
Jiang Zhiluo didn't mention studying.
If the emperor is a wise ruler, studying and taking the imperial examinations will naturally help him serve the people. If he is not a wise ruler, it will be useless even if he passes the examinations.
They even have to endure the emperor's frequent wrath.
Jiang Zhiluo realized something and said, "Mom and Dad, it's spring now. Let's plant more food. Whenever we have food in our hands, we feel more at ease."
Jiang Zhiluo hadn't thought much about it at first, but after thinking about it, she realized that she still needed to grow more food.
Even if there is a war, we can survive for a long time by hiding in the mountains with food.
Just wait until things are peaceful outside before coming out.
Ye said, "We have three mu of land now, and the food we grow is enough for our family."
Jiang Zhiluo nodded.
Jiang Zhiluo also told her parents that she had earned some money by making pot cakes and chili meat sauce.
Then the house was built.
Jiang Xiangchuan and Ye were happy for her when they heard it.
"Okay, now you have your own house to live in."
"Yes, it's comfortable to live in your own house, and you can also grow some vegetables in the yard."
Ye planted some vegetables in the yard. When she wanted to eat, she would just pick some and wash them before cooking.
Very convenient.
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Mom and Dad, go over and take a look with your brothers and sisters later."
"Let's go there when we have time. Now is the busy farming season."
In fact, Ye and Jiang Xiangchuan wanted to go and see what the house built by their daughter and son-in-law looked like.
But they didn't want to cause trouble, so they said this.
Jiang Zhiluo understood very well that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
My parents won’t know how to use the money I give them, so it would be better to teach them a skill.
But my parents don’t seem to want to set up a stall to cook food.
Jiang Zhiluo thought for a moment and said, "Mom and Dad, the chili meat sauce business is pretty good right now. In the past couple of days, many merchant ships have ordered chili meat sauce from me, often more than ten or twenty bottles at a time."
“You don’t have to set up a stall, you can just make it at home and send it over.”
Jiang Zhiluo initially set up a stall at the dock to let everyone know that chili pork sauce was delicious.
Once more people have eaten it, they will naturally order from her.
Of course, this was also promoted when we set up the stall so that everyone knew they could order in advance.
Many ship merchants ordered some from her.
So she has been very busy these days. She sets up a stall to sell chili pork sauce in the morning. After selling it all in a short while, she goes home to make the chili pork sauce that everyone has ordered.
Jiang Xiangchuan and Ye were happy for Zhiluo, but Ye still said, "This is your idea. Dad and Mom can't use it."
"Don't worry, our family is much better off now. We can eat our fill. Last time I went to the market, I bought a pound of meat and made dumplings."
Thinking of the happy faces of the family on the day they ate dumplings, Ye felt that life had a purpose.
She thought about how hard the children at home worked to weave straw sandals, so every time she went to the market, she would buy some food and make some delicious food as a reward for everyone.
Seeing that her parents insisted, Jiang Zhiluo could only say, "Then you can make pot cakes and sell them. If you don't like setting up a stall at the dock, you can set up a stall every time there is a market."
"I can sell straw sandals and straw raincoats, and I can also sell chive boxes."
"I'm making chili meat sauce now and don't plan to make chive boxes anymore. Mom and Dad can try this business."
"You don't have to work every day. Just work during market hours and business will be good."
"Now many people in Yangliu Village have bought leek seeds, but it takes more than a month to plant them. During this month, my parents are starting a leek box business."
"After a month, we'll make potcakes."
Jiang Xiangchuan and Ye's expressions changed when they thought about it.
You don’t have to work every day, you can set up a stall every time there is a market.
"It's just that, Zhiluo, these are all your business ideas."
"Mom and Dad, why are you being so polite to me? Besides, I'm not going to do these two businesses anymore. It's just right for you to set up a stall in the market."
"Besides, Dad can make a food cart, so it's perfect for setting up a stall."
"It just means that cooking requires more work and more firewood."
In fact, you can also make something like a pierced burrito, but Jiang Zhiluo thinks this kind of thing is easy to imitate.
Ye thought for a moment and hesitated to speak.
Jiang Zhiluo said, "Mom, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. Don't worry."
Ye said, "I'm just worried that the Yangliu Village market will be crowded and inconvenient." More free novels on WeChat: Ale Resource Library
"You came up with this idea for Mom and Dad. We were worried that we wouldn't be able to handle setting up the stall and cooking at the same time."
Ye actually still prefers the method of selling straw sandals, which is simpler.
She also knew that her daughter was doing this for their own good, but she still had some concerns.
And she is not very good at cooking on weekdays.
"Look, you're always thinking about your family, so your parents are afraid of causing you trouble."
Ye also understood that only when the family's life improved would her daughter no longer have to worry about them.
So she should also work harder, but she has no experience in running a snack stall, so she can't help feeling nervous.
Jiang Zhiluo listened to these words and looked at her mother's expression. She also understood that it was not so easy for her to cook food on the spot at the market.
Suddenly, Jiang Zhiluo thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Mom and Dad, you can make scallion pancakes or thousand-layer pancakes and sell them. You can just make them at home, and when people buy them at the market, they can just cut a piece and weigh it."
"This thing won't get cold. Just cover it with a clean cloth when you go."
