Dinner was dumplings, with the same two kinds of fillings, leek and meat and fennel meat. The family ate until their bellies were full as usual. Zhou Fen was a little embarrassed to eat at first, but seeing that her family was eating so happily, she couldn't help but eat a lot.
After eating, taking a bath, and eating watermelon, everyone went to bed early.
Jiang Yiyi wanted Zhou Fen to sleep in the same room with her, but Gu's mother was afraid of disturbing her sleep, so she let Zhou Fen sleep with them.
After twelve o'clock, Gu Yunchi and Zhou Fen got up quietly, went to the kitchen, and made a fire to make cold noodles.
It was already half past eight when Jiang Yiyi woke up. The sun was bright and 250 sheets of cold noodles were ready.
She went out of the house with toiletries, and watched Yun Chi making breakfast in high spirits. She was impressed that she was worthy of being the heroine in the book, with plenty of energy.
Zhou Fen was in high spirits. She thought that Liangpi would be difficult to make, but it was unexpectedly so simple. She learned it in the morning. After going to the county town, she didn't have to come back and could start making it directly there, saving her younger sister the trouble of running back and forth.
"Little sister, get up, wash up and eat. After eating, we will go to the county town early."
There was only one bicycle at home, and Gu Yunchi had to carry his mother and two children, so Zhou Fen could only walk. She had to leave early. If she hadn't been to the Gu family, she would have taken a steamed bun and ate it while walking.
The Gu family didn't have steamed bread, and Jiang Yiyi thought it irritated her throat, so she asked Gu Yunchi to steam buns. If the family had income every day, Gu Yunchi would be willing to spend money, so he steamed big and round buns.
After dinner, Gu Yunyang and Gu Yuncan went to school, leaving two portions of cold noodles for them to eat when they came back from school. Jiang Yiyi packed up the tricycle and let Gu's mother and the two children sit on it.
Mother Gu took out money to give to Jiang Yiyi. Her daughter-in-law was renting a house and buying a tricycle, so she must not have much money left. She used the two thousand yuan that the Qin family paid back for the medical treatment. This money was originally a way out for her daughter and two granddaughters, but now it seems that it will not be used anymore.
She took two hundred.
Jiang Yiyi refused, "I have the money in my hand, you can keep it for emergency use."
Mother Gu refused, "If you don't take it, I won't go to the hospital."
She didn't want to go at first, she could feel that her body was getting better, and she agreed to go because she wanted to reassure Jiang Yiyi and Gu Yunchi, and she wanted to see if there was a place to rent in the county town.
Jiang Yiyi had no choice but to take it, thinking of returning it to Gu's mother when she got home in the evening.
She rode a tricycle with Gu's mother and two children, while Gu Yunchi rode a bicycle with Zhou Fen, and they went to the county town.
The villagers had already gone out to work, and it was very strange to see Jiang Yiyi riding a tricycle. In that era, not every family had a bicycle, let alone a tricycle.
"The Gu family's cold noodles really make a lot of money. They bought a tricycle when they were just a few years old."
"It's only 30 cents a copy. How can you sell dozens of copies a day? Isn't that profitable?"
"You're wrong. Even if they sell 100 servings, it's only 30 yuan. A tricycle is not cheap. It costs 300 yuan. How much does their cold noodles cost?"
The man's eyes widened.
"You mean you sell hundreds of copies a piece?"
"No way, who wants to eat something so expensive?"
"Can you please not leave it here? If they can't sell so many, how can they afford to buy a tricycle?"
"Didn't they say that Gu Yunchi got two thousand yuan back from the Qin family? Maybe he bought it with that money."
"If this is true, the daughter-in-law of the Gu family is too scheming."
"Who said it wasn't true? No wonder she didn't let Gu Yunchi go back. It turned out that she wanted to get him divorced so that she could get back the two thousand yuan for herself."
"You can't judge a person by his appearance, but by his heart. The daughter-in-law of the old Gu family has a very dark heart."
…
Jiang Yiyi naturally didn't listen to people's discussions. She rode very slowly, carrying three people on her back. It was almost nine o'clock when she arrived at the county town. She first went to the state-owned restaurant to deliver goods.
"Give me eighty servings, please."
Manager Huang said.
He didn't expect that Liangpi would sell so well. Every table of guests would order one or two servings, and some would even take it home for their families. They didn't need to cook it, just add some things, and he could earn several cents or even a dollar for each serving.
Leaving eighty copies behind, Jiang Yiyi took a few people to the rented house. Jiang Jinfeng had already left, and Wu Gang was gone. There was a car parked in the yard, loaded with coal.
The coal had already been delivered before the money was paid. Wu Gang's connections were indeed good. Jiang Yiyi paid the money and the people on the car immediately unloaded the coal. When the car drove out of the yard, Jiang Jinfeng immediately closed the door. He looked so anxious, as if many people outside wanted to rush into the yard to grab the coal.
Jiang Yiyi wanted to laugh when she saw this, so she took out some money and gave it to Wu Gang, "I won't go to the cowhide bag manager, you go and sign the contract."
Looking at the thick stack of big unity in front of him, Wu Gang was very excited that Jiang Yiyi trusted him so much, "Don't worry, there will be no mistakes."
Jiang Yiyi nodded. Trust the people you employ, and don't employ those you don't trust.
Jiang Jinfeng was worried. After all, it was several hundred dollars. Looking at Wu Gang's receding back, he lowered his voice and said, "Little sister, you have to be more careful and don't trust anyone easily."
"I will use him more in the future."
After Jiang Yiyi said this, Jiang Jinfeng understood that his sister was testing Wu Gang, but the money he gave was too much. If Wu Gang ran away with the money, his sister would not even have time to cry.
"Mom, big sister, please wait here for a while. I'll bring the cold noodles over first."
Mother Gu and Gu Yunchi came back to their senses from their shock. They thought Jiang Yiyi had just rented a small courtyard and didn't expect it to be so big.
"Sister-in-law, go and do your work. I'll just take mom to the hospital."
"I'll be back in less than half an hour, so wait for me to come back and go together."
Gu Yunchi nodded.
Jiang Yiyi first sent fifty copies to Li Lan, and then to Zhang Mei. A hundred copies were sold yesterday, and Zhang Mei's confidence increased greatly. "Yiyi, please leave twenty more for me."
She had made up her mind when she went back yesterday. If she couldn't sell all of them during the day, she could sell them in the evening.
"꿷꽭 has to accompany my mother-in-law to the hospital, so there isn't much to do. Sell these first. If you can sell them all, I'll send you some more tomorrow."
"good."
"By the way, Sister Zhang..." Jiang Yiyi said as she handed her the cold noodles, "You can tell me about the cold noodles, but try not to tell anyone how much money you made."
It's not that Jiang Yiyi was afraid that others would know how much money Liangpi made, but she was afraid that Zhang Mei's mother and two other girls would be targeted. In this era when the basic salary of workers was only in their thirties, Zhang Mei's income could easily arouse envy. The three of them had no one to rely on, and once they were targeted, it would be a disaster.
Zhang Mei nodded, "I know."
A total of 250 portions were made, 230 of which were wholesaled. Jiang Yiyi took the remaining 20 portions back to the rented kitchen, cut five portions, mixed them, and gave them to Jiang Jinfeng's wife, saying that Wu Gang would come to get them. Then, she and Gu Yunchi took Xiaoxiao, Yueyue, and Gu's mother to the hospital.
People these days rarely come to the hospital unless they are seriously ill, so there are very few people in the hospital.
"dad."
꽭꽭 suddenly pointed into the distance and shouted.
