The Chinese New Year is almost here, and Yimingge’s business is extremely good.
Grandma Su and her people were so busy every day that they couldn't take care of the braised food.
A few of them were very interested in doing business, but because they were small and made a large amount of braised food, they didn’t have enough strength.
The braised ingredients are prepared in advance, but marinating is a very time-consuming process.
It seems that you only need to purchase the ingredients that need to be marinated every day, clean them, and then marinate them in the pot.
But these tasks are not something that a few children can complete.
Fortunately, Xiaoliang had been training in the army for several years, and with all his strength, he decisively took on this part of the work.
"I've taken care of all this work, but I'm afraid I won't be able to handle the heat." Xiao Liang is still very clear about his abilities.
It's okay to do hard work, but not technical work.
Su Xiaotian thought about it and said: "I think, let's not occupy the stove in Yiming Pavilion and make trouble. Why not make braised food at home!"
Su Xiaoliu nodded in agreement: "That's right, the pots and stoves in Yiming Pavilion are busy, but the big pot at our house is idle."
After discussing with Grandma Su, Grandma Su agreed.
But she was worried about the little ones, so she asked Li Yuniang to help take care of them.
Now, there are people watching over the fire.
In fact, it was not without reason that Grandma Su asked Li Yuniang to go home to help.
Although I have written back to Qi Liangying and asked Qi Liangying to help issue a certificate for Li Yuniang on the street, the certificate has not been sent yet.
During the period before the Chinese New Year, the inspections are strict. Rather than being frightened in a restaurant, it is safer to be at home.
Li Yuniang also knew that Grandma Su's arrangement was the best, and there was nothing she would not agree to.
The Su family helped her through several difficulties.
Now she is an old lady, and her help in the restaurant is limited, but she gets the same amount of money as everyone else. Li Yuniang is already very embarrassed.
When making braised food at home, she just watched the heat and the children had already done other things, so she thought she should do something more.
After Li Yuniang thought about it for a day, she approached Su Xiaotian.
"Xiaotian, I just watch the heat every day, and I am too idle, so I am thinking about something else to make. After thinking about it, I came up with the idea of making jelly, what do you think?"
After Su Xiaotian heard what Li Yuniang said, she thought for a moment and said, "Okay, just sell it with braised food. Maybe you can make a lot of money!"
In these days, the process of making jelly is still very cumbersome, mainly because the early stage of kneading the jelly is too slow.
Su Xiaotian directly exchanged high-quality pea flour and mung bean flour from the system for Li Yuniang.
Li Yuniang had never seen starch of such good quality, but she doubted whether it could really be used to make jelly?
"Don't worry, this will definitely work."
Making jelly directly from pea flour and mung bean flour is much simpler and easier than the traditional production method, and Li Yuniang quickly mastered it.
"It's really easy. I just don't know if the jelly is delicious or not."
Li Yuniang didn't dare to do too much for the first time, so she made a pot and planned to test the water.
She had a good idea. If she couldn't sell it and she had a lot of family members, she would eat every portion and not waste it.
But when the smooth and smooth jelly was placed in front of her eyes, Li Yuniang felt that she might have made too little.
Unexpectedly, the jelly made directly from pea flour and mung bean flour is much better than the handmade one.
"Xiaotian, we will definitely sell this one!"
Before Su Xiaotian could speak, Li Yuniang said confidently.
Su Xiaotian agreed with this very much.
In these days, there are very few snacks. Whether it is jelly or cold skin, there should be a market for it. Not to mention, she uses high-quality flour, and the quality of the jelly she makes is even better and guaranteed.
Sure enough, when the little ones came back that day, all the jelly they brought with them was sold out.
They gave Li Yuniang the money for the jelly separately, and the two pots of jelly were sold for a total of thirteen yuan and two cents.
How could Li Yuniang be willing to accept it?
She felt that if she really accepted it, she would be shameless. She was only getting the salary from the old Su family.
"Grandma Li, just accept this money. You earned it through your hard work in making jelly." Su Xiaoliu also felt sorry for Li Yuniang, a kind-hearted woman, so she didn't want to take advantage.
He felt that Grandma Li was getting older and she would be unable to work in a few years. If she still doesn't save money now, what will she do when she gets old?
In the end, Li Yuniang took half of it.
Several children disagreed, but Li Yuniang said: "You have worked hard to sell it, much harder than me. If you don't agree to this division, I will not make jelly."
Su Xiaomei reconciled and said: "Then it's settled, excluding the cost of the jelly, Grandma Li will get half of it and we will get half of it."
Xiaogang looked at his sister with confusion.
He wondered, when did his sister become like this?
They did this to help Grandma Li. After all, Grandma Li was really pitiful.
How could Amelia Su not understand the thoughts of the little ones?
But although Li Yuniang has been a weak person all her life, she has a bottom line.
If they help regardless of this, it will put a burden on Li Yuniang's heart.
Over the next few days, the jelly business got better and better, and we could sell thirty or forty yuan a day.
Li Yuniang looked at the increasing amount of money in her hand, her happy face covered with flowers.
She had never thought that it was easier to make money in the capital than in the county.
No wonder everyone says that there is gold everywhere under the emperor's feet.
I used to think this was a lie, but now it seems that it's not entirely a lie either.
As long as you find the right method, isn't it just like picking up money?
Since Li Yuniang had received her share of the money from several small businesses, she refused to ask for any more wages from the Su family.
Grandma Su didn't force herself either.
Later, some people took the initiative to wholesale the jelly made by Li Yuniang.
Similarly, braised food is now mostly wholesale.
Although you will make a little less money, you will make small profits but quick sales.
Su Xiaotian was not involved in these things, she was busy with translation work.
Her work schedule is already full this holiday, so she will naturally make a lot of money.
The older members of the Su family are nowhere to be found day and night.
In short, the whole family is busy making money.
The whole family stayed busy until the 26th of the twelfth lunar month.
They were on the evening train and were going back to the Red Heart Brigade to celebrate the New Year.
Su Taohua's family of five also wanted to go back, which was quite a big move.
Li Yuniang was unwilling to go back, so Yu Ruiyuan invited her to celebrate the New Year at his home.
Li Yuniang originally disagreed and thought it was too disturbing.
But Yu Ruiyuan said that neither of them knew how to cook, so she invited Li Yuniang over because she wanted to ask her to help cook the New Year's Eve dinner.
In addition, the Chi family’s grandparents and grandchildren also celebrate the New Year together. There are so many people and it’s really lively.
That night, the entire Su family and Su Taohua's family got on the train, and it was Professor Huo who sent them off.
Seeing the group of people leaving in large and small bags, Professor Huo felt so sad!
When will he be recognized and go back to the brigade in an open and honest manner?
During this period, Professor Huo was very miserable.
