"Is it made of the kind of meat slices you eat for lunch? Mom should try it quickly." The mother then went to get the cakes separated by chopsticks from the basket. First, she gave one to each of the brothers and sisters, and then she took it for herself.
one.
When Zhang Heng saw that his sister had taken a bite first, his beautiful eyes widened with an incredulous expression, and he shouted vaguely: "It's so delicious, brother, I want to eat ten of them at once."
Glutinous rice is made of glutinous rice. Most adults will feel full after eating five or six leaf cakes. My sister shouted that she would eat ten, obviously because it tastes so good.
Zhang Heng didn't think much about it immediately, and took a bite himself. He only felt that it was fragrant and moist, mellow and delicious, the leaves were strong, the dish had two flavors, and it was salty and delicious. He actually had the illusion that this should be called Yeerba.
"It's so fragrant and delicious. My son, your skills are enough to open a shop. Well, with your skills, you won't be hungry in the future." The mother said happily.
When Zhang Heng heard this, he simply said: "Mom, it's not that I'm good at craftsmanship. It's that these leaves are good for filling meat. I found these leaves in the park in front of me when I went out for a walk today. I smelled the fragrance and picked some leaves.
return."
Then he said: "Mom, what do you think our family also sells Ye'er cake? I've done the calculations. The cost price of a Ye'er cake is less than 50 cents. If you sell it outside for RMB 50, you can earn one yuan by selling one.
.”
The mother was stunned for a moment and did not answer immediately. However, she started to think about it. After a while, she nodded and said: "Son, you have a good idea. We have meat and shops at home. We can also buy salt vegetables and pepper from our hometown.
It’s more than half cheaper than outside, which can keep the cost even lower. I also buy large steamers made of bamboo from my hometown, which will not break down after decades of use..."
When Zhang Heng heard what his mother said, he not only admired his mother, but in such a short time, his mother was able to think so far and consider all aspects.
"Mom, how about we start selling tomorrow?" Zhang Heng said eagerly.
The mother couldn't help laughing and scolding: "It can't be that fast. After dinner, mom will call your grandpa back and tell you when everything is ready. Mom also has to go to the hardware store to customize a steam pot base.
Also, if the business is good but it is too busy and there are not enough manpower, all these aspects must be considered."
Zhang Heng understood after hearing that he was indeed too impatient, so he followed up and said: "Yes, Mom is right." He then said: "Mom, I have something else to tell you. I met you in the car yesterday.
I met a friend and she introduced me to a job and asked me to go for an interview the day after tomorrow. It was not far away, just 20 minutes away by bus. The job was also very easy. I only had to work five hours a day and I had to work every month.
On vacation."
This was a good thing, but the mother's face suddenly turned cold and she said seriously: "Son, you will start school in two months, and you will be a college student by then. You have been reading at home for the past two months. You are tired.
Just go out and play, if you want to go to work, mom won’t allow it!”
She probably felt that her words were too harsh, so she said softly: "Son, Mom knows that you want to reduce the burden on your family, but our family is not what it used to be. The butcher shop can earn more than 5,000 yuan a month. In addition to rent, water, electricity and living expenses,
You can also save more than 3,000 yuan, and the debts you owe outside have been almost paid off over the years, which can fully afford your college expenses..."
Seeing his mother's sincere words, Zhang Heng firmly decided to go to work and insisted: "Mom, my son has grown up. Many people in the village went out to work when they were fifteen or sixteen, and some of my sisters came out to help when they were ten.
You, I want to go out to make money now. The job is not tiring. I help take care of the equipment in a fitness club. I can also exercise. Didn’t you say that I am too thin? It’s not good to be able to exercise for free now.
?”
The mother was stunned for a while, then sighed and said: "Son, it's okay for you to go to work and see the world. It doesn't matter if your salary is less. Don't be tired. If you can't finish the job, just go home and play for two months. You know
Is it done?"
Zhang Heng nodded vigorously, but mentally he was thinking that he must do this job, so that he could have an excuse to slowly take out the money in the card and give it to his mother. Suddenly he thought that there might be a fight during the interview the day after tomorrow. Although he prided himself on being a strong fighter,
But I had never really fought before, and suddenly I had an idea. I decided to stay in the primitive space for a few months, and then come out after the spring, so that I could develop my fighting ability in the space.
Even if the fighting ability in the space cannot be brought out, it can at least increase the fighting experience. Isn't there still one day tomorrow? Then he can adapt to the fighting skills learned in the space in "reality". In addition, his strength is greater than ordinary people.
In a few minutes, I should be able to get the interview. Thinking of this, I nodded vigorously to increase my confidence and persistence.
After coming back to his senses, he nodded and said, "Well, Mom, I understand. Don't worry, your son has grown up and will take care of himself."
"My precious son!" His mother suddenly stepped forward and hugged him. Zhang Heng quickly squatted down and buried himself in his mother's arms. This feeling was both familiar and unfamiliar, it was his mother's warm embrace!
"Brother, Mom!" My sister also rushed over, and the family of three hugged each other happily. This should be the happiness mentioned in the book.
After a while, mother and son gathered their emotions. Zhang Heng suddenly slapped his forehead and shouted: "Mom, I even forgot to send cakes to Aunt Chen."
"Yes, yes, send it over quickly. It's getting late. Mom will cook the vegetables right now and have dinner when you come back." Mother said cheerfully.
Zhang Heng nodded, and then put ten pork fillings on a plate. After thinking about it, he put three thigh meat dumplings on the plate. He greeted his mother and carried them out.
After bypassing a bamboo forest from behind the house, I discovered that there was an avenue on the other side, which was wide enough for a tricycle. I guess Aunt Chen next door usually went out from here, so Zhang Heng had seen it during the day these two days.
It's night! Even the farmland area here is dotted with lights. Looking around, you can vaguely see the brightly lit and noisy high-rise buildings outside. Zhang Heng shook his head. Compared to the noise outside, he actually liked his small courtyard because
He felt very safe and friendly here, as if he was still in the village. As he thought about it, he arrived at the entrance of the courtyard next door. The door was open. This side seemed much smaller, with only two rooms, and one of them was a kitchen.
There is a simple fiber tile toilet next to it, and the conditions are much worse than those in my own small courtyard.
The kitchen was dark, the door to the room was ajar and the lights were on. There was a faint sound of children making noises. Zhang Heng immediately shouted: "Aunt Chen, I'm sending Baba over."
"Young man, please come in and sit down." The voice came, and then the door opened to reveal the woman's figure.
Zhang Heng saw two little girls in the room at a glance, sitting on the bed and playing around...
