Deng Fangping bought 60 jin of meat today, and also prepared eggs, flour, green peppers, and other ingredients. She also brought back a few pig trotters to improve the family's meals.
For dinner, they ate braised pig's trotters and shredded pork noodles. Xiao Jiang clamored for a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), so Deng Fangping generously made one for each of them.
With more meat at home and a noticeable improvement in meals, Xiao Jiang has visibly gained weight, Chu Chu has also put on weight, and Chu Xiang's complexion is much better than before.
"Chuchu, eat more." There was still half a bowl of noodle soup left in the pot, with a lot of shredded meat in it, and Deng Fangping ladled it all into Chuchu's bowl.
Ever since Chu Yu said that Chu Chu was not developing well, Deng Fangping often looked at her little niece and found that Chu Chu was not as tall or as well as other girls of the same age in the village.
Deng Fangping wasn't too worried about Xiao Jiang's height. She and her second uncle Shu were both tall, and Shu Lan and Yunyun weren't short either. Boys grow later; her second uncle Shu only started growing taller after finishing junior high school. Deng Fangping figured Xiao Jiang would have many years to catch up on his height, but girls tend to stop growing after they start having sex.
Deng Fangping then paid special attention to Chu Chu's meals, hoping that she could recover her health before her bad luck came!
The shredded pork noodles smelled amazing, and Chu Chu ate them like a little hamster.
"Thank you, Auntie!"
Deng Fangping smiled and said, "No need to thank me, we're all family!"
"No need to thank me, we're all family!" Xiao Jiang mimicked Deng Fangping's tone in a strange way, "Why haven't I seen you treat me this gently before?"
"That unlucky kid!" Deng Fangping pretended to hit him on the head with chopsticks, but Xiao Jiang dodged in time, and his comical appearance made everyone burst into laughter.
After dinner, Chu Xiang and Yunyun went to wash the dishes, while Deng Fangping and Shu Hui stayed inside to do the accounts.
Even close brothers need to keep clear accounts; every penny must be accounted for. If one party suffers a loss, it may not be a big deal in the short term, but over time, it can easily lead to resentment.
Chu Yu had reminded them at the beginning of the partnership that the accounts had to be kept in order every day, and there couldn't be any mistakes.
The small change was hard to count, there were pennies and fen, but luckily the accounts all matched. I made more than 20 yuan this day. I never thought money could be so easy to earn. With the money I made, I dared to buy 10 more jin of meat today! Tomorrow I can sell 60 more roujiamo (Chinese hamburgers)!
Life is getting better and better!
The next day, Chu Yu took the buttons to Deyang. When Chu Xiang heard that she was going to do button business again, she wanted to help her.
