Listening to her daughter's words, Qiu Wenqin thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense."
"If I could really buy cloth directly from the embroiderer, I could save a lot of money on making clothes in the future."
"A piece of cloth at this market is quite expensive."
"Now we have a house in Xinghua Village and are familiar with the village head. I will ask your Aunt Li later. She should know about this."
Aunt Li is the wife of Xinghua Village.
He is a warm and cheerful person.
Hua Xinuo listened and nodded.
But they still bought some things.
When they returned to the boat, they saw Old Mrs. Feng and her grandson Feng Zhiqiang waiting by the boat with a basket.
Qiu Wenqin quickly stepped forward and said, "Grandma Feng, why are you standing here? Come on board and sit for a while."
Qiu Wenqin knew that Old Lady Feng was waiting here, probably for them.
Without asking what they were doing, they were warmly invited to get on board.
Feng Zhiqiang also called out to Qiu Wenqin in a clear voice, "Thank you, Auntie!"
Qiu Wenqin has a very good impression of Feng Zhiqiang. He is a diligent, capable, cheerful and polite young man.
Moreover, Feng Zhiqiang is handsome with fair skin and a sunny smile.
While greeting them, Qiu Wenqin greeted them warmly.
Hua Xinuo and Hua Hanbin also called her Grandma Feng.
Old Mrs. Feng took the basket from her grandson and said, "Thank you for what you did yesterday."
"I don't have anything good at home, so I just made some steamed buns. Don't be disgusted."
Qiu Wenqin quickly declined, "Auntie Feng, look at you, why are you still so polite? We really can't accept these."
"Mrs. Qin, just take it. We'd be really sorry if you didn't accept it."
"Doctor Lin said that you helped to advance the money for the medicinal materials, more than one or two taels of silver..."
Mrs. Feng and the others just wanted to make money and pay it back as soon as possible, but they still had to express their gratitude.
Hua Xinuo just watched the two people pushing each other, luckily the basket didn't fall to the ground.
Hua Xinuo said, "Mom, Grandma Feng is well now, let's sit down first!"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Wenqin quickly reacted and did not dare to refuse, so she had to accept it.
Hua Xinuo looked at the steam and said with a smile, "It's still warm."
When Old Mrs. Feng listened to Hua Xinuo's words, she felt comfortable because they touched her heart.
"Try it while it's hot. I don't have any special cooking skills, so I can only make some steamed buns."
Qiu Wenqin smiled and said, "Everyone knows that back then, Aunt Feng, if you were second to none in making steamed buns, no one dared to claim first place."
Mrs. Feng thought of her youth with a look of nostalgia in her eyes. She sighed and said, "I'm old now. I'm not like that anymore."
At that time, our family had a house and land in the village. Our lives were much better and we could afford to eat steamed buns.
I can’t even remember how long it has been since I last had steamed buns.
Hua Xinuo said, "Grandma Feng, I won't be polite then."
Old Mrs. Feng was amused by Hua Xinuo's cute appearance. "I'm so happy that you like it. No need to be polite."
In fact, I’m just afraid that people will dislike it and not want to eat it.
Hua Xinuo walked forward, took a steamed bun and pinched off a piece.
After tasting it, Hua Xinuo's expression changed and she said, "It's delicious. It tastes really good."
The steamed buns are soft and chewy, which shows that they are well kneaded.
The reason why Hua Xinuo chose to give it a try was because a business idea suddenly came to her mind, which might be suitable for Mrs. Feng's family.
When Mrs. Feng heard this, the smile in her eyes almost overflowed, "Only you don't mind."
After hearing Hua Xinuo say that it was delicious, Mrs. Feng felt relieved.
I’m afraid that the gift I gave you won’t be good enough.
"It's really delicious. If Grandma Feng sets up a stall to sell steamed buns, people will definitely buy them."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Feng was so shocked that she couldn't believe it. "How can the steamed buns made by a farmer like me compare to those made by businessmen?"
"It's true, Grandma Feng. I saw a shop that sells steamed buns. Their buns may not be as delicious as yours, but they're doing pretty good business."
That shop is an old brand, selling steamed buns and dumplings, but actually it mainly sells dumplings.
However, there are many wealthy families in the city, and many of them don’t make steamed buns themselves, but buy them to eat.
It’s just that white flour is expensive, so steamed buns are priced at two cents each, so there are few stalls selling steamed buns because the cost is high and it is not as cost-effective as making dumplings, but some people don’t know how to make dumplings.
Old Mrs. Feng opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Really...really?"
Feng Zhiqiang's expression changed when he heard this. He said, "Sister Xinuo, we don't know anything about setting up a stall business. We can only trouble Sister Xinuo to explain it to us."
Feng Zhiqiang's eyes sparkled, he really wanted to give it a try.
If you only rely on fishing to make money, you will really have to rely on the weather. If you can do some small business, you may be able to earn more.
Their family has very little daily expenses and is very frugal. If he could do this business, he would help his grandmother knead the dough and make steamed buns.
When life gets better, neither grandpa nor grandma will think of doing anything stupid.
His grandparents have worked so hard for so many years, and he also wants them to live a good life.
Feng Zhiqiang clearly knows the benefits of having a skill.
After hearing this, Qiu Wenqin finally understood that her daughter probably wanted to help.
But to be honest, Aunt Feng’s steamed buns were the best back then.
At that time, the nearby villages were famous.
Whenever someone holds a banquet, they will invite Aunt Feng to make steamed buns.
It’s just that the flood submerged the village fields, and they all had to go out fishing for a living.
After that, I never heard Aunt Feng make steamed buns again.
