Chapter 517: Everything has its limits, too much is as bad as too little
Saturday is the Lantern Festival.
Song Fuyu took out some glutinous rice flour, sesame seeds, peanuts, walnuts and red beans, preparing to make dumplings and roll Yuanxiao.
She is from the south and naturally prefers tangyuan, but the rest of the family are born and raised in the north and they are used to eating yuanxiao.
The ingredients are the same for both, but the cooking methods are slightly different.
"I used to think that Yuanxiao and Tangyuan were exactly the same thing, just with different names in the north and south. Now it seems that there is a little difference."
"But why is it called the Lantern Festival instead of the Glutinous Rice Ball Festival?"
"Because the first month of the lunar calendar is the first month, and "yuan" also refers to the circle in the round, the fifteenth day of the first month is the first full moon night of the year, and "night" was called "xiao" in ancient times, so the fifteenth day of the first month is called the Lantern Festival."
"As for why it is not called the Tangyuan Festival, you have to ask the ancients."
"Haha, no matter what, the most important thing is that we have a happy holiday together."
"Is the studio closing early today?"
"No, they are not happy about it. They said they just came back from the Chinese New Year and have been resting for a long time."
"These military wives are really hardworking~"
"Indeed, they are basically all hardworking and diligent, and no one has cheated or slacked off so far."
"Your policies are the best. The more you work, the more you earn. The less you work, the less you earn. In an atmosphere where everyone around you is working hard, no one dares to slack off."
"If this were like other factories, they would probably set an average number and then slowly complete that number every day and that would be it."
“I was worried that this might happen.”
In fact, it was because she knew the development of factories in the future and no longer chose to eat from the same pot.
It is only a matter of time before the current factory system is reformed.
For dinner, we naturally eat Yuanxiao and Tangyuan, which can be boiled, fried or roasted.
I cooked two plates of dumplings in case everyone thought it was too sweet.
"Whenever there's a festival, as long as Xiaoyu is around, she can make any ordinary thing into something special with her unique ideas, and they all taste delicious."
"If you ask me, if Xiao Yu didn't open a clothing factory, he would definitely be very successful if he opened a food factory."
"For the time being, I don't plan to get involved in the food business. Let other people with ideas do it. Otherwise, if I monopolize the food business in the future, wouldn't that leave no room for others to survive?"
The food she cooks is delicious, and to a large extent it relies on the flavor imparted by the spiritual spring water. Without this ingredient, the taste is actually just above average.
There was no way she would open a factory and add spiritual spring water to it, unless she was crazy she would do that.
Clothing and food are two completely different things. Cooking delicious food and being able to run a factory well are another matter altogether.
"It's better not to bother."
"Now that I'm pregnant, I have to take care of not only the garment factory but also the shoe factory and accessories factory. If I add a food factory, your grandfather and I will be so worried that we won't be able to sleep at night."
"Xiao Yu, I heard from your Grandpa Jin that after Ah Kai returned, he seemed to have been looking for all kinds of houses and yards in Beijing. Apart from practicing driving, he wandered around every corner of Beijing all day long. You can't see him at all. Do you know what he is doing?"
"I asked him to do it."
"You want to buy a house? It's not that simple, right?"
If Jin Kai did this himself, it might be because he was bored and wandering around, but if Song Fuyu asked him to do this, it would be different.
She usually thinks a lot before doing things, and it is impossible for her to waste her time on something meaningless.
"Grandpa Jin often reminded Akai and Youyou to keep learning."
"Later, you found a way to arrange for Director Guo to return to the city and reinstate him. According to my gossip, it seems that people from various places have begun to return to the city one after another."
“This is a big signal!”
"This kind of thing was absolutely impossible a few years ago, but it is feasible now. Doesn't this suggest to us that the country is about to gradually begin to change?"
"Now, while housing prices are low, try to stock up on some houses. When the country gets back on track, people who left the city may be able to return. If the college entrance examination is resumed, the value of the houses you own will definitely be more than a hundred times higher."
“Buy now and you’ll earn money!”
Yan Ziyuan, who was standing next to him, listened to his wife's serious nonsense and tried hard to hold back his laughter.
She must have prepared this statement in advance.
She didn't guess it, she just knew it.
Taking Beijing as an example, housing prices have more than increased a hundred times, and in some places have increased more than a thousand times.
"Hush, don't say that!"
"Grandpa, we are the only ones at home now, and you asked me about it, so I'm chatting with you."
"I dare not tell others. If others find out, they will follow my example and I will suffer a great loss."
"Girl, where do you get so many crazy thoughts all day long?"
Although Mr. Yan said this, he felt indescribable admiration for Song Fuyu in his heart.
Xiao Yuming lives in Lu City, but he is so far-sighted.
The other children in the family, although born and raised in Beijing, only care about their jobs and the daily necessities of life.
Oh... Fortunately!
"Grandpa, you're the one who spoils my wild thoughts because I know you won't allow me to do so."
"You."
Old Master Yan nodded her head helplessly.
"I don't know why you are so obsessed with making money."
“This is not an obsession, this is fun.”
“Only when you have money can you do whatever you want.”
"If I don't have money, then the medical fund won't work. What about those soldiers who are retired due to injuries? What if they don't have money for treatment? Will they also find a place to die like Gu Hai did?"
"I am not a saint, and I cannot help everyone in the world, but if I can help one person, it is one person. Even if it is just one person, it means I have done my best."
Grandpa Yan was very pleased to hear her words.
Xiao Yu is not just trying to make money. As she said, with money you can do a lot of things, but without money you can't do anything.
"You can buy it. I'll have someone contact Akai to avoid any problems with the transfer."
"But you have to promise me one thing. You have to be careful and know when to stop."
"Everything should be done in moderation. Too much is as bad as too little."
"Grandpa, I know you are the best. I will listen to you and whatever you say is what I will do."
"You little girl, you always scare me to death, and then you give me a sweet treat."
"A few days ago, I hoped that the baby in my belly would look like you, but now it seems that it would be better if it looks like Ziyuan."
"If there was another quirky kid like you at home, my old bones wouldn't be able to handle it."
