“Seven hundred coins for each person!” Aunt Song said happily.
He actually earned 700 coins a day, while the dockworkers could only earn 800 or 900 coins a month.
“But Auntie, I definitely can’t handle this alone. If I don’t do a good job, I’ll only be a burden to you,” Su Yun’er asked. “Besides me, is there anyone else?”
Aunt Song said, "It's really not decided yet. The main problem is that no one cooks as well as you. If we don't decide on you, it's not easy to find someone else. If you're willing, then it'll be you and me, and we'll look for other people. In the end, we'll need three people."
"Auntie, aren't you going to look for your daughter-in-law?"
"Sigh, although their cooking skills aren't great, they can still help out. But the employer only needs three people, so it's hard to decide who to send and who not to send. So we simply decided not to send either of them to avoid being accused of favoritism." Aunt Song laughed as she spoke.
"Auntie, why don't we ask Aunt He Liu to come along?" Su Yun'er suggested.
"Okay, it's settled then. I'll talk to my eldest son and have him drive us into town first thing tomorrow morning." Aunt Song clapped her hands and excitedly hurried home.
Su Yun'er was naturally happy to agree. After agreeing with Aunt Song to meet the next morning, Su Yun'er went home to put down her things and went to He Liu's house to pick up Xiao Shu and Xiao Cao.
Now, Su Yun'er and Grandma Chen go to the dock to sell tofu pudding together every day, and the little trees and grass are entrusted to He Liu to take care of for half a day.
And there's something else—no, two important things I need to tell He Liu today.
The last time I told Wan Youfu about He Liu's husband wanting to find work at the dock, Wan Youfu took He Liu's husband to meet the contractor the next day.
To increase the chances of success, He Liu prepared a lot of things for her man, including mountain produce, fried noodles made by Su Yun'er, and a small bottle of wine.
With Wan Youfu mediating between them, the contractor was relatively easy to talk to, but at the time he said there were no vacancies and that he had enough manpower, and told them to go home and wait for news, and to contact him again if there were any vacancies.
I thought it was just a polite way of saying goodbye, but I never expected to actually receive the news today.
When Wan Youfu was eating tofu pudding, he told Su Yun'er to tell He Liu that the man was going to work at the dock the day after tomorrow.
"Aunt He, you can rest easy now, right?" After Su Yun'er told He Liu the good news, He Liu happily held Su Yun'er's hand and asked her several times.
"I feel relieved, I feel relieved. I'm completely at ease now. I was worried that all those things I sent out would be wasted." He Liu held onto Su Yun'er's hand tightly. "Yun'er, thanks to you. If it weren't for you, our family wouldn't have gotten such a good job. It's at the docks and at wedding banquets. We can earn seven hundred coins a day tomorrow! My God, that's a lot of money!"
"Auntie, what are you saying? The dock isn't something I can decide. As for the wedding banquet, that was arranged by Aunt Song."
"But you still have to act as matchmaker, it's kind of you to remember me."
He Liu wrote it several times and then made Su Yun'er a bowl of noodles.
Su Yun'er was busy working at the tofu pudding stall at noon, and after closing up, she came straight to He Liu's house because she was really hungry.
After having a good meal at He Liu's house, Su Yun'er took the twins home and went to her space to keep busy.
Lately, I haven't encountered any good items in the game, and the vegetables I've stolen are all supplies I already have. My warehouse, on the other hand, is piled high with vegetables, yams, potatoes, and other items.
They look quite well-off.
Today, Su Yun'er went to steal vegetables as usual, and found that a high-level player had actually upgraded to seafood and had two more seafood plots, both of which were used to farm oysters.
However, it's not ready yet. Su Yun'er stared at the time and set an alarm, but it wasn't an alarm that would be on time; it was an alarm that would be set a minute or two in advance.
As soon as the alarm went off, Su Yun'er immediately entered the space and squatted down next to the oysters. The moment the oysters ripened, Su Yun'er didn't hesitate to "steal" them, successfully obtaining a large pile of oysters.
With a delighted expression, Su Yun'er stored the oysters in the warehouse, already having already planned how to eat them.
Some of the oysters are used to make garlic oysters, and the rest can be upgraded using points, which can be upgraded to oyster sauce.
Oyster sauce is a flavor enhancer that can be used in stir-fries, stews, and cold dishes.
Oyster sauce can enhance the flavor of food, making it taste even better.
Before dawn the next day, Song Muqiang and Aunt Song came to pick up Su Yun'er. Then the oxcart went to He Liu's house, picked up He Liu, and headed straight to the city.
When they arrived at the city gate, it was not yet open. The people waiting at the gate either found a place to sit and rest or bought food from the stalls at the gate.
The sun hadn't risen yet, and the morning was quite chilly.
He Liu hugged her arms and shivered: "My God, how come it's suddenly so cold after just one night? This outfit was just right yesterday, but today I'm shivering from the cold."
"Yes, it suddenly got cold. Let's find a sheltered spot to sit. It's freezing." Aunt Song also said she was cold.
Su Yun'er looked around and saw a wonton stall to her right. It had set up a tent for the customers to keep out the wind, so she suggested that everyone go there together.
"Drinking some hot soup will also make you feel warmer."
This proposal was unanimously approved.
The oxcart stopped at a place, and the four people each ordered a bowl of wontons.
Because it was meat wontons, a bowl of wontons cost eight coins. In the past, Aunt Song and He Liu would have been reluctant to spend that much, but thinking that they would earn seven hundred coins today, they didn't feel so bad about it.
Holding the freshly cooked hot wontons in your hands, the warmth travels through your palms to your body, making you shiver involuntarily, and immediately feeling as if the heat has driven away a lot of the cold air.
After eating a bowl of wontons, my whole body felt warm.
They arrived at a riverside alley with a warm smile. Without Song Muqiang leading the way, Su Yun'er and her two companions found the door of the host family's wedding banquet by following the red lanterns, even though it was the back door.
"The owner's surname is Xu, and there are seven or eight servants in the house," Song Muqiang gave a brief introduction.
Because of the upcoming wedding, the back door of the Xu family's house was wide open. Through the door, one could see several servants bustling about, each with a red scarf tied around their waist.
"Butler Bai." Song Muqiang greeted a familiar face.
Butler Bai, a middle-aged man, was speaking anxiously to two young servants.
Seeing Song Muqiang arrive with his men, Butler Bai's anxiety did not diminish in the slightest; instead, it became even more serious.
