Zhao Yuan was thinking about the money, so she exchanged a few words and then returned to Zhou's house. Seeing that there was no fun to be seen, the ladies in the neighborhood all went back to their homes.
The Shen family was disturbed twice a day, and they were not in a good mood. Mrs. Zhang's face turned gloomy, and she poured two basins of water at the door, "Let's go with the bad luck."
Zhou family
Zhao Yuan told Zhou's mother what she heard. Zhou's mother stood up from her chair and stared.
"Really? Did she really help the Shen family make money?"
"Mom, it's true. I heard it clearly. My sister helped make snacks at my parents' house, and the Shen family took them out to sell. The woman told me the location of the snack shop. Let's go and take a look."
When they heard Qian Qian, they both couldn't sit still, and Zhou's mother was about to go to Jiang Ji to find out what was going on. Unfortunately, Jiang Miao's dim sum was only sold in the morning, so they made a fuss.
The two of them walked around the door. The vendor next to them looked at Jiang Ji's plaque and said with some envy.
"Jiang Ji is only open in the morning. Come here early tomorrow, otherwise you won't be able to buy anything. This pastry shop is doing great business."
"Hey." The two of them laughed, and left quickly without stopping. When they reached the corner, Zhou's mother turned around and spat.
Neither of them slept well that night. They went out early the next morning without even making breakfast for Zhou Shui'an. Zhou's mother didn't worry about the money anymore and let him eat whatever he wanted outside. After all, there are more important things now.
things to do.
If Shen Yingxue really works for her parents' family, she won't be able to spare her!
The business of Jiang Ji Dim Sum Shop is as booming as ever. The sugar-fried chestnuts made by Jiang Miao today are sweet and soft right out of the pan. Each chestnut is plump and attractive. There is a long queue at the door, waiting to try it.
"My parents just gave me pocket money. I want to buy two packs today." The young lady pinched the sachet in her hand with a happy face.
She used to spend her pocket money to buy rouge and gouache, but she didn't like to use them and put them all away. Now she used the money to buy snacks, and she felt happy when she ate them in her mouth.
"I also want to buy more. My mother has a bad appetite recently, so I just want to buy her hawthorn tea."
"By the way, have you seen Mrs. Chen? She lost a lot of weight after drinking Jiang Ji's hawthorn tea. She didn't dare to recognize her last time I saw her."
Madam Chen is the young lady who complained to Jiang Miao last time about getting fat after eating snacks. She was already prone to obesity, but after drinking hawthorn tea for a few days, her face became sharper.
"Really, then I want to buy it too!"
There is no young lady who doesn’t love beauty. After hearing that hawthorn tea is really effective, everyone can’t wait to buy it and take it home to drink.
Jiang Miao didn't expect that hawthorn tea would sell so well. The dozens of boxes she had just made were sold out in an instant.
Today, excluding roasted chestnuts, hawthorn tea alone was sold for ten taels of silver. Jiang Miao happily counted the items and stuffed her purse full. Little did she know that two people not far away were staring at her purse with envy.
"Let me tell you, Mom, the Shen family's dim sum shop is doing very well. The money they made this morning was as much as my husband made in two months."
Zhao Yuan felt both envy and hatred, "No wonder my sister doesn't want to come back. Making money is as easy as drinking water for my mother's family. How can I still like the Zhou family?"
"Bah! This bitch is a cheating bitch. She is the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. Why should she help her parents' family? She must be called back. We can't give the Shen family an advantage in vain!"
Zhou's mother was so angry that she was almost dead from exhaustion at home. It was better for Shen Yingxue to go directly to make money for the Shen family.
Zhou's mother turned around and walked towards Shen's house, still cursing, so Zhao Yuan quickly stopped her.
"The Shen family still relies on my sister to make money. They will definitely not let her come back. Mom, we have to think about it in the long run."
Although Zhou's mother was angry, she still listened to Zhao Yuan's advice, "I will listen to you no matter what you say."
Zhao Yuan's eyes flashed, and she whispered in her ear, "Mother, first..."
Li Dajiang came to the Shen family every day to deliver potatoes, with a basket weighing more than 20 kilograms. In addition to cooking and eating, the Shen family asked Wang to make spiked potatoes and sell the rest.
Because of this novel snack, the business of Dafang Shop has doubled, and even the duck blood vermicelli soup and braised meat business has improved.
Ms. Wang counted the money she had made in the past few days and was so happy that they would be able to completely pay off their debts in two months. They originally thought it would take two or three years, but who would have thought it would be so fast.
Thanks to Jiang Miao for teaching her the recipe regardless of previous suspicions, Mrs. Wang kept this kindness firmly in mind and worked even harder to help Jiang Miao.
Li Dajiang delivered the potatoes. He came more often and was no longer as reserved as before. He dared to take it and drink it when Mrs. Zhang poured him water.
Li Dajiang drank a gulp, wiped his mouth, and smiled honestly, "Madam, Madam Jiang, we have almost finished digging the potatoes in the back mountain. I guess they will be gone in two days."
Although he didn't want to lose this business, he could earn fifty cents a day, which was more than a laborer at the dock, but there were a lot of potatoes in the back hill, and they would eventually be dug out.
"Yeah," Jiang Miao understood. She had previously persuaded Li Dajiang to stock up on others and sell them all.
Potatoes were the staple food, and Jiang Miao was afraid that he would starve his family because he only wanted money, but Li Dajiang had already planned it. He would buy cheaper brown rice after selling the money.
The rest of the money is being saved to buy land next spring. Migrants like them have no land or roots in the village, so anyone can bully them.
Li Dajiang took the money and calmed down for a while before leaving. Jiang Miao saw him out. As they walked out of the door, they almost bumped into Zhou's mother and Zhao Yuan outside.
"You're going to kill me..." Mother Zhou was about to yell, but Zhao Yuan grabbed her clothes and reminded her, so she quickly shut her mouth and pretended to be weak.
Zhao Yuan supported her and stepped forward, "Ms. Jiang, my mother will personally take my sister home. Please let her come out and meet her."
Li Dajiang took one foot out of the door and turned his head when he heard Zhao Yuan's voice, "Hey, you're not..."
Zhao Yuan's heart skipped a beat when she saw him, and she shrank back and hid behind Zhou's mother. Jiang Miao caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye, her eyes confused. Did they know each other?
Before Li Dajiang could finish his words, Zhou's mother started making trouble. Jiang Miao temporarily suppressed the doubts in her heart to deal with Zhou's mother.
"My old wife has a hard life. She worked hard to raise her son and finally got a wife, but she is unfilial. When she was angry, she went back to her parents' home to enjoy the blessings and left all the work at home to my mother. My son persuaded her to go back to their hometown.
The Shen family didn't even open the door, and even scolded my son. This kind of unfilial and unvirtuous daughter-in-law, if her husband's family divorced her, it would be like..."
Mother Zhou's body was crooked and leaning against Zhao Yuan, with tears streaming down her cheeks.
"But my son likes her, and this is my only son. What can I do, other than begging her to go back? Shen, my mother has kowtowed to you to apologize, so just go back with me."
As she was about to kneel down, Zhao Yuan pulled her with an anxious look on her face.
"Sister, just agree. Mom is still sick. If you are angry, just take it out on me. Don't embarrass me."
"This daughter of the Shen family is really ignorant. Didn't you realize that her mother-in-law is about to fall ill?"
"that is!"
People around her pointed at her, Shen Yingxue's face was pale and her body was shaky.
