What's going on?
Was there a thief in her house?
Ye Yun hurriedly went to look for other things. When she finished, she found that except for the mung beans, everything else was intact!
Is that for the mung beans?
"His wife, why are you here so early?"
Qin Xiang'e had also woken up at this time. She put on her coat, rubbed her eyes and walked towards the kitchen shed.
Ye Yun asked hurriedly: "Aunt, how many mung beans did we have left when we made mung bean cakes yesterday?"
"There should be about ten pounds left."
Qin Xiang'e walked into the kitchen shed in a daze. When she saw the empty bag, she lost all sleepiness and her eyes widened in disbelief!
"Where's Mung Bean!" She looked around in surprise and looked up at Ye Yun.
It seems that Qin Xiang'e doesn't know either.
Ye Yun's face darkened unconsciously. Someone really was targeting her mung beans.
Recently, she has made a lot of money making mung bean cakes.
After deducting costs and consumption, the profit of one pound of mung beans is about 40 or 50 cents. She sells ten pounds a day and can earn about four or five yuan. In an era when monthly wages are only 30 or 40 yuan, her income is already quite considerable.
In this situation, there will inevitably be jealousy.
Since ancient times, the more remote and poor the place, the more complicated the human nature is. Hating others for what they have, laughing at others for what they don't, and being jealous are the norm for those with evil intentions.
However, Ye Yun always felt that the matter of Green Bean was not that simple...
"His wife, how are we going to make mung bean cake today?" Qin Xiang'e stood beside Ye Yun, her face full of worry.
Ye Yun gritted her teeth and said, "Do it!"
Her business has just started. If she is absent now, she will lose her reputation and affect her future business.
Qin Xiang'e hesitated to speak, "This..."
How can I make cakes without any mung beans?
"It's still early. I'll go to town to buy mung beans and come back to cook them quickly. I should be able to sell them in time for lunch!" Ye Yun arranged and turned to go into the house to get the ticket.
Mung beans are a relatively precious grain, and the food coupons have not been cancelled yet.
When Ye Yun took out the stack of food coupons left by Qin Zheng, she discovered that there were no more coupons available to buy mung beans!
What should I do?
"Have you found his wife? Give me the ticket and I'll go buy it!" Qin Xiang'e also hurriedly followed in wearing a coat. It was still a little cold in the early morning, and she was shivering as she spoke.
Ye Yun showed her the food coupons in her hand and said, "It's all used up."
"Ah?" Qin Xiang'e clapped her hands anxiously when she heard it, "What should we do? I replaced all the neighbors nearby last time, where can we get mung beans now..."
She was so anxious that she clapped her hands and paced around the room like a headless fly.
Ye Yun left the house first.
She went into the kitchen shed and stared motionlessly at the empty cloth bag.
"How about I take a walk farther away? Yes! I'll go back to Zhaojiawa to take a look! You wait for me, his wife!" Qin Xiang'e said, and hurried back to the house to push the 28-inch bicycle.
The 28-ton truck was a rare item, so they usually locked it in the house at night.
Ye Yun nodded.
This is the only way now.
Even if you do less, even if you go a little later, you can't close the stall. The worst thing in doing business is to fish for three days and dry the net for two days.
"Xiang'e! What are you doing so early in the morning?"
Just as Qin Xiang'e pushed the bicycle and was about to leave, she met Aunt Tian who had just woken up. Aunt Tian was also wearing a long sweat coat and was looking at her from a distance with a sleepy look.
Qin Xiang'e replied hastily: "I'm going to Zhaojiawa to get some mung beans!"
"Mung beans? Didn't you exchange a big bag with someone last time?"
"It's gone! A thief stole it!"
"Fuck you! How come there are all kinds of people here? How come there are people stealing mung beans!" Aunt Tian was also a person of temperament. She waved her hand and said, "Come to my house. I just went to the town yesterday and bought two kilograms. See if it's enough!"
What?
Qin Xiang'e just rode to the door of Aunt Tian's house. She braked and looked at Aunt Tian in surprise.
Ye Yun also ran down quickly.
"How far is Zhaojiawa? We're riding a 28-inch bicycle and rushing there in the early morning with the cool breeze blowing. I'll probably have to lie down tonight. I'll go get you some mung beans. Stay here and don't move!" Aunt Tian said, turning around and going to the kitchen shed.
Soon, she came out with a cloth bag weighing about two kilograms.
"Here! This is my Xiaohui who said yesterday that she wanted to eat mung bean cake and insisted that I buy it for her. What a nice relationship! I'm giving it to you. Your wife makes it and you can give a piece to my Xiaohui." Aunt Tian was also generous and gave two kilograms of mung beans to Ye Yun right away.
Qin Xiang'e quickly accepted it and said gratefully, "His aunt, thank you so much!"
"What is this? What is our relationship?"
Aunt Tian waved her hand generously.
"Thank you, Aunt Tian." Ye Yun was grateful and hurried to thank Aunt Tian.
Aunt Tian waved her hand as usual and urged, "Hurry up and make it! Just leave a piece for my Xiaohui, so that she can also taste your cooking skills..." At this point, she smiled mysteriously and called Ye Yun, "Zhengzi's wife, you don't know, our Xiaohui is craving your mung bean cake, but she is too embarrassed to ask you for it, haha..."
Ye Yun pursed her lips and smiled, "Then I'll leave one for her today..."
"Okay, okay, go ahead."
Ye Yun thanked Aunt Tian again, and hurried back to the yard with Lu Dou and Qin Xiang'e.
…
"His wife, these two kilograms of mung beans don't seem to be enough..."
In the kitchen shed, Qin Xiang'e watched Ye Yun packing up her things, her face still showing worry. She and Ye Yun had been to the market so many times, and she knew very well how many people came every day. These two kilograms were not enough to sell.
"Aunt, let's do something else."
