Chapter 95, Difficulty
Mei Xue had no objection to this and agreed immediately. However, they had to prepare the dishes themselves. Mei Xue did not give in on this point. It was unrealistic for her to send the dishes to the county town, and she did not want to be so tired.
After the final price was agreed upon and the weight was weighed, Qian Zeyang paid directly.
We also agreed on a time to come back and pick up the food at the end of the month.
There should be more dishes at the end of the month.
Mei Xue also wanted to plant some vegetables in the winter. She couldn't just leave the farm empty.
After seeing off the Zhao father and son, Grandma He started counting the money again. It wasn't much money, but it was earned through her hard work, so she counted it with more pleasure.
I don’t think there’s anyone else in the village who can buy vegetables at this price.
The price of water spinach and celery is the same, both sold for 50 cents per pound.
This price is almost as high as the price of meat. How could Grandma He not be happy and excited?
Even if it's only a few dozen dollars, it's real money.
"Grandma, don't count. It's only forty yuan, and you've counted it several times." Mei Xue said with a smile as she put away the dishes.
"Haha, no matter how many times you order, it's not too much, Xiaoxue, you are really capable. You know, this vegetable only sells for 1.5 cents at the market, and people will think it's too expensive if you order more."
When talking about the price, Grandma He's face was full of pride.
"The food in our house is delicious." Mei Xue replied.
Fifty cents, never mind, as long as grandma is happy.
The villagers also learned that the boss of another family had taken a fancy to Aunt He's dishes and had come to buy them personally, and they all started gossiping.
Some people were envious and planned to ask Grandma He for help, while some people were naughty and said some nonsense.
Fortunately, they were talking behind each other's backs. If it had happened in person, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been a fight between two people, but a murder between two people.
Mei Xue and Grandma He didn't know about this. They were checking out the gifts that Boss Zhao brought this time. To be honest, the things they brought were worth more than forty yuan.
It’s really hard for them to order so many dishes.
Fortunately, both parties are very satisfied.
On the way back, Qian Zeyang looked excited. They had rented a horse carriage in the town when they came here, and now it was just the right time to take the food back with them.
"Dad, if possible, I want Meixue to grow more vegetables. It would be best if she can buy all the dishes in our restaurant." He had tasted the dishes at noon, and they tasted just as his father said, without any deviation.
Even if there is, it is better, tastes better, and the dishes are better.
"You can make your own decision. Did you see today that there are quite a few chickens in the yard? You said the vegetables are so good, and the chickens..." Boss Zhao only felt that some people were suitable for breeding.
Whether it is planting or raising, the taste is incomparable to others. He thinks Mei Xue is such a person.
"Oh, that's right. Why didn't I think of that? Oh, and there's also their rice. Dad, do you think they will sell it?" Business people are very smart.
Don't draw inferences too easily.
"Haha, then you have to think about it, talk about it, and have a heart-to-heart talk with yourself." You must also know how to seize the opportunity when it comes.
Once you miss it, there may not be a second chance for you.
"I remember. Don't worry, Dad. I know what to do." Qian Zeyang said seriously.
"That's good. Only sincerity can last long." Boss Zhao said with emotion.
···
"Are you going?"
At He Zhengjing's home, which was also the home of the eldest grandmother's youngest son, He Anhua was pulled aside by his wife as soon as he came back from the mountain.
He quickly asked if anything had happened.
Who would have thought that my wife, who hadn't given me a good face for a long time, would actually talk to me with a smile today.
And speaks softly.
But when he heard what was said, he felt terrible.
"No, you know what's going on at Third Grandma's house. Even if there's good business, I can't do anything to ask Third Grandma to give me a share."
He Anhua said reluctantly.
It turned out that his wife saw the third grandmother's family selling vegetables at noon today, and the boss even came to the door in person to buy them. After asking, she found out that the vegetables were selling for fifty cents per pound.
This gave her an idea.
She originally thought of going out to work and earning dozens of dollars a month, but she didn't expect that the third grandmother from her husband's family could make dozens of dollars just by selling vegetables. How could she not be envious and jealous?
So, she thought of asking He Anhua to ask Third Grandma if their vegetables could be sold together to the boss.
Unexpectedly, He Anhua, who is a stubborn person, actually disagreed.
"If you can't do it, how can we live like this?" Chen Qingqing screamed.
He Anhua's wife is from Chenjia Village. She has been married for two years, but not only has she not given birth to a child, she also tries to be lazy whenever possible. Anmei helps with all the housework at home.
She can be said to have the best life among the wives in the village.
Even during the busy farming season, her family never forced her to work in the fields, but she was always dissatisfied.
"Isn't it good like this now? Our life is no worse than others. Can you please stop thinking about this and that?" He Anhua was almost driven crazy by her recently.
I keep asking myself to go out and work, but is it easy to find a job outside?
He chops wood with his father at home, earning a solid income every month, and all their meals and daily necessities are provided at home, without them having to pay for anything. What else could he be dissatisfied with?
"No worse than others. Haha, that depends on who you compare with. Look at my cousin and her whole family. They all work outside. Every time they come back, they carry a lot of bags. Their food and clothing are much better than ours." Chen Qingqing roared at He Anhua with dissatisfaction.
"They've only been married for a short time, and they're already wearing gold and silver. But what about me? I've been with you for two years, and I haven't even seen what gold and silver look like."
He Anhua's eyes turned red with anger when he heard her words. He couldn't give her a life of luxury. He knew his abilities and he couldn't earn back such a life.
He has no education and no skills, so he can only do hard labor if he goes out to work, and he can't earn as much as he does at home. He has learned about this.
Besides, there have been a lot of rumors in Chenjia Village about what her cousin and the others did outside. Is that something decent people would do?
Why Qingqing just couldn’t understand and figure it out.
"Qingqing, stop making trouble, okay? Now we earn more than 10 or 20 yuan a month, which is not less than working outside. If you like silver, then we can go buy some in a few days, okay?"
He Anhua tried his best to persuade his wife.
But will Chen Qingqing appreciate it?
"No, I don't want it. Either you go and talk to Third Grandma about selling vegetables, or you come with me to go out to work." Chen Qingqing finally saw clearly that this man was a coward and good-for-nothing.
"Qingqing, do you really have to be like this?" He Anhua held his head in his hands, looking very depressed.
He wanted to live a good life with her, but the way she looked now, it was obvious that she didn't want to live a good life.
When He Anmei saw her sister-in-law calling her brother out, she knew that her sister-in-law was up to something again. She didn't expect that she was so bold that she even dared to target the third grandmother.
