The three women acted immediately and set off quickly.
First, I went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a coal stove, coal briquettes, flour, seasonings, and the like.
There were also some other miscellaneous things.
Then I went to a grocery store and bought some vegetables to keep for tomorrow.
Soon, the items were almost all prepared.
It's just that steamers are hard to buy; you can only buy them when you go to the market.
The sun rises and sets, and another new day begins.
Just as they set up the stall, Wang Erya and Taozi arrived.
Upon seeing them, he laughed and said, "You two are really early now; we're almost running out of time."
Su Nianxue tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "I'm just used to it. I wake up on time. I can't fall back asleep even if I want to, so I just get up."
"Yes, we are the same."
"I'm used to waking up early, so I wake up automatically at that time." Wang Erya chatted with them while working.
Seeing that it was about time, Su Nianxue just needed Gu Yanliu to deliver the tofu to the restaurant.
Gu Yanliu responded and took the tofu away.
Wang Erya asked, "What are you doing here...?"
"Oh, the restaurant in town ordered some tofu from us, and I had Yanliu deliver it to them!"
Since the group often spent time together, Su Nianxue didn't intend to hide it from them.
"Nianxue, you're really amazing!"
"It hasn't been long, and you've already connected with the restaurant. That gives you another stable source of income." Wang Erya smacked her lips twice, her eyes filled with envy.
"I guess I was just lucky." She was too embarrassed to say that Gu Yanbai was the restaurant owner.
This is something she's dealing with internally.
In the afternoon, Taozi and Wang Erya came to my house.
The group chatted idly for a while, then Peach nudged Wang Erya.
"Take your things out! We've been here long enough, it's time to go back."
Wang Erya glanced at the sky and realized it was indeed getting late.
She reached into her pocket and pulled out a white handkerchief.
Then, layer by layer, they peeled back the layers to reveal a neatly stacked wad of money inside.
She counted them herself first, then handed them to Su Nianxue.
"Nianxue, here is a hundred yuan, which we have saved up over the past few days."
"We can earn the remaining hundred yuan slowly; I reckon we can pay it back before the New Year."
Su Nianxue remembered Gu Yansong's words, "No rush, we have money to spend, you can use this money first!"
Without saying a word, Wang Erya shoved the money in her hand into hers, saying, "How could I not be in a hurry?"
Nobody's money comes from thin air; it's all earned penny by penny through hard work.
We know you're a kind-hearted person and have never asked us for anything. But we can't pretend we don't know anything!
Peach looked grateful and said, "Yes, Er Ya is right."
Under those circumstances, you lent us the money without even thinking about it.
We're not worried at all about whether we'll make it; this friendship alone is enough for us to remember for a lifetime.
She still remembers the situation at the time; the Wang family was certain that they couldn't come up with the money and were just waiting to ridicule them.
When the villagers who had come to watch the spectacle saw that she wanted to borrow money, they immediately ran far away, afraid of getting involved with them.
It was Su Nianxue again; without saying a word, she simply took out the money.
Su Nianxue hesitated, wanting to tell them that the money belonged to Gu Yansong.
She didn't actually do anything; she just acted as a middleman for nothing.
But remembering Gu Yansong's instructions, she hesitated for a moment and ultimately said nothing.
If they knew the money belonged to Gu Yansong, they'd probably feel uncomfortable.
Never mind, I'll tell them when they come to pay me back next time!
Otherwise, seeing them all looking so grateful every day would make her feel very uncomfortable.
Su Nianxue had no choice but to take the money and put it away in her room.
In the afternoon, Yang Hongxing came to visit again.
She was a little worried, "Nianxue, do you think I can sell these? What if..."
Zhou Mingjie is often not at home. She hasn't been married into the town for long, and sometimes she doesn't even have anyone to talk to.
However, even if he were at home, he probably wouldn't have the patience to listen to her talk about these things.
Yang Hongxing gave a self-deprecating laugh.
So she had no choice but to come here and talk to someone about her feelings.
"Oh, it's okay. It's normal to feel uneasy when you first start a business."
"You'll get used to it in a few days." Su Nianxue understood her unease.
She was like that at the beginning too, and she really owes a lot to Gu Yanliu!
"I'll come with you tomorrow morning and cheer you on," she said, patting her hand encouragingly.
“Sister-in-law Hongxing, I’ll go tomorrow too.” Gu Yanliu also grasped her other hand.
"Don't worry, your steamed buns are so delicious, they'll definitely sell well."
Her hands were held by the two men, one on each side, their warmth seeping into her palms and into her heart.
"Thank you." She sniffed, her eyes were a little wet, and her voice was slightly nasal.
So, even though it was still early the next day, Su Nianxue threw off the covers and prepared to get up.
Gu Yanbai put one arm around her waist and, with a little force, pressed her down on the bed so she couldn't move. "Where are you going? It's still so early, sleep a little longer!"
"I'll go buy you some steamed buns!" Su Nianxue winked at him playfully.
"I must still be dreaming!"
Otherwise, why is my wife becoming more and more virtuous?
"They even knew to buy me steamed buns to improve my appetite!" Gu Yanbai joked.
