Before Li Jinzhu could understand, Shi Gun had already walked away. The group of bearers followed Shi Gun, and they were gone in the blink of an eye, leaving behind eggs all over the yard, and a pile of eggs.
Neighbors watching the excitement in the alley.
"What's going on!" Li Jinzhu's throat became thick.
"Go in and talk, go in and talk!" Li Xiaonan stepped forward and pushed Li Jinzhu into the yard.
"How to get in?" Li Yuzhu stood outside the threshold, stretching her head and looking at the egg baskets that were filled with airtight in the yard.
This egg basket blocked the courtyard door. Unless two or three baskets of eggs were removed, the courtyard door could not be closed.
"This, isn't from Xuedong? Is it you two? What's going on!" Li Jinzhu grabbed one by one with one hand and pushed Li Yinzhu and Li Xiaonan to the outer corner of the courtyard door. His eyes were so anxious that they were almost red.
"No, yes, no, that..." Li Yinzhu was incoherent.
"In the morning, Sister San and I went out for a walk, and we met someone. The person bumped into us, and he said he wanted to give us a gift to apologize, but we ignored him. The person just now said that his father felt sorry for him, so he gave these to us.
I’ll bring eggs as a gift to apologize.” Li Xiaonan said while looking at the neighbors who were getting closer and closer.
"Ah?" Li Jinzhu couldn't believe her ears. If Yinzhu had said this, she would have slapped Yinzhu on the head.
Her grandma is smart and sensible, so she will definitely not talk nonsense, but this thing is so ridiculous!
"We just met a rich weirdo. We will talk about this in detail later. Sister, please think about what to do with these eggs first. There are so many that we can't even keep them in the winter. Sister, first of all, that
, eggs, eggs!" Li Xiaonan lit up the yard.
"Ana is right, eggs are a big deal right now." Li Yuzhu stretched his head and looked into the yard again, frowning.
Li Jinzhu let go of Li Xiaonan and Li Yinzhu, held on to the door frame, scanned the yard, and raised his hand to slap his forehead.
She doesn't know what to do! She has grown so old that she has rarely eaten a whole egg. When had she ever seen so many eggs?
The four sisters, Li Yuzhu and Li Jinzhu, and Li Yinzhu and Li Xiaonan, stuck their four heads into the courtyard door and looked at the eggs all over the yard with their eight eyes.
Li Xiaonan didn't dare to say anything. She really didn't know what to do. What she was thinking was: If these eggs are all smelly in a few days, how far can the smell travel? Does Pingjiang City have an urban management system?
Li Yinzhu pursed her lips tightly, thinking about the ways she knew how to eat eggs: boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, steamed egg custard, which one is better? All of them are delicious!
Li Jinzhu looked at Li Yuzhu, and Li Yuzhu looked at Li Jinzhu with two eyes. Li Yuzhu shook her head, she really didn’t know!
Outside the courtyard gate, neighbors had gathered around, and some even stood on the steps, craning their necks to look into the courtyard.
"Sister, why did your family buy so many eggs? What is your business?" A neat lady in her thirties stretched her head from Li Xiaonan's side, looked at the eggs in the yard, and asked with a smile.
"No business." Li Jinzhu answered with a smile.
"Hey! How can your family buy so many eggs if you don't do business?" My sister-in-law was surprised.
"No..."
"It's a debt that someone paid off. If they don't give us copper coins, they'll be broken into eggs." Li Xiaonan said quickly.
"Oh! This person is bad! If I don't give the coins to these eggs, I am bullying you. Oh, this person is bad!" Auntie said.
"Yes, where is it!" Li Xiaonan nodded and smiled.
"Sister, you have to hurry up with these eggs. If you sell them...tsk, there are too many of them. You have to sell them in the shop. Your family is not in the shop. If you sell these eggs in a single trip, the shop will take a lot of money.
, I have to sell an egg as half." Mrs. Liluo looked distressed.
It was Li Xiaonan who withstood the test of eggs in the yard and reacted the fastest. She looked at her sister-in-law and asked with a smile: "Is my sister-in-law a businessman? Can you give us some advice?"
"We just moved here because my brother was admitted as a scholar..." Li Jinzhu was reminded by Li Xiaonan's words and hurriedly answered with a smile.
"Oh! Your brother? You don't look that big at all. How old can your brother be? He's already been admitted as a scholar?" Liliu's sister-in-law screamed, interrupting Li Jinzhu's words.
The neighbors surrounding the area were also surprised.
Li Jinzhu smiled modestly, "My brother is seventeen this year, and he's not too young. He just has good luck."
"A seventeen-year-old scholar! That's incredible!"
"You're taking classes at a nearby school? That's really incredible!"
……
Neighbors around were full of admiration and admiration.
Li Jinzhu put his arm on Li Xiaonan's shoulder and said with a smile, "No way, he just has good luck. They say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. We just moved here and don't understand anything. Please take care of him in the future."
"Let me tell you!" Auntie Liluo reached out and took Li Jinzhu's arm, pushing her towards the eggs in the yard. "I was married from Gaoyou County. Do you know Gaoyou? My maiden name is Yin, and I own a preserved egg shop.
, Yin’s preserved egg store is one of the best in Gaoyou. Our Yin’s preserved eggs are famous for their delicious taste, and many people in Pingjiang City also know about it.”
Sister-in-law Yin looked proud.
"If you sell these eggs to the industry, you will lose at least 30 to 40%! That is not cost-effective. I tell you, you might as well make preserved eggs and pickle some salted eggs to make preserved eggs and salted eggs. Business will be better!
You can definitely make a lot of money!"
"Making preserved eggs is not easy." Li Jinzhu said tentatively.
"Easy! As for me, let me tell you, we don't have delicious preserved eggs in Pingjiang City. Whenever someone from my parents' family comes, I ask them to bring me preserved eggs to eat. Not only do I say they are delicious, but you ask us
In this neighborhood, who doesn’t say that our Yin’s preserved eggs are delicious? I’m here, and I’ll help you make them!”
"How much does it cost?" Li Xiaonan raised her head and asked.
"Let me do the math. If you have a lot of eggs, it won't cost you much copper. But the space in your house is not enough. You have to find a big yard. Let me tell you, there is an empty room in the alley behind your yard.
The yard, the house is too old, I haven’t rented it out for more than half a year. The yard is big and can be spread out!” Sister-in-law Yin is very enthusiastic.
"Big sister."
Sister-in-law Yin's words were interrupted by a shout of "big sister". Li Xuedong, who had returned from school, squeezed through the crowd watching the excitement and shouted.
"My brother is back! Thank you sister-in-law Yin. This is a big deal. I have to discuss it with my brother and sister." Li Jinzhu hurriedly laughed with sister-in-law Yin.
"This is Mr. Xiu Cai. He is really talented, but he is too thin. Yes, yes, this is a big deal. Your Xiu Cai Gong has to make an idea. Then you can discuss it. My house is separated from yours by a door. That's right there.
, you have discussed it, just come to my house and call me."
Sister-in-law Yin was very discerning, so she explained a few words, walked down the steps, and when passing Li Xuedong, she stopped, looked up and down, met Li Xuedong's gaze, shouted "Xiu Cai Gong" with a smile on her face, and walked around
Li Xuedong waved his arm and said: "Don't look at it, let's go."
Neighbors were in small groups, talking and looking back at the Li siblings from time to time before going home.
