Chapter 25 Preparations

Bai Shui's face changed greatly, "What are you talking nonsense about? You and your family are free every day, unlike us who are too lazy to talk nonsense to you in the fields while the sun is shining."

Watching Bai Shui leave in a hurry, suspicion arose in the old lady's eyes.

Bai Banxia still had a smile on her face. If she stole something from her, she would have to pay a price, right?

Bai Tian winked at his wife and daughter, then took the old lady to the backyard to talk.

This was a matter of business that they had discussed on the road. Bai Tian went to the old lady and told her that he would borrow the stone mill and stove at home. If he made money, he would pay the old lady one hundred cents a month for household expenses.

The old lady still didn't know that Bai Tian's allergy problem could be solved, and Bai Tian had to explain it, otherwise she would definitely not agree.

On the other side, mother and daughter Bai Banxia went shopping.

"With so much as one hundred coins, can we really earn it?" Zhang Lingzhi asked worriedly on the way.

"Don't worry, you will make enough." Bai Banxia said firmly.

In addition, she also wants to find an opportunity to sell painkillers, which should bring in a lot of income. But she doesn't want her family to rely solely on herself to make money. Only when her parents also have income can she change everyone's view of them.

However, through observation during this period, I found that although her mother has low emotional intelligence and a loud voice, she is not the kind of talkative woman who gossips behind people's backs. How did she end up with such a reputation?

"I've already bought mung beans from Mrs. Zhou's family, and I've also ordered eggs from your Aunt Fang. She can supply us for a long time. If there's not enough, we'll talk about it."

Zhang Lingzhi works very efficiently and has already contacted all the ingredients to be used. Buying these things in the town is much more expensive than buying them in the village, sometimes more than twice as much.

Bai Banxia gave a thumbs up, "Mother is doing a great job!"

Zhang Lingzhi grinned, a little silly, but he couldn't hide his beauty. Bai Banxia looked a little crazy. If her mother could tidy up, she would definitely be a beautiful woman.

I won’t say anything anymore, I’m going to pull a piece of cloth to make new clothes for my mother, and my father too!

When doing food business, you need to dress neatly and neatly to leave a good impression on customers. As for her, don't worry, she still needs to be thin anyway, and the clothes may not fit her again soon.

The mother and daughter chatted all the way, and Bai Banxia tactfully asked Zhang Lingzhi about being called a talkative woman.

Zhang Lingzhi looked aggrieved, "I don't know what's going on. One time I heard them talking about the Sun family's daughter-in-law having armpit odor. I said no, why didn't I smell it? But it spread around within a few days.

The Sun family’s daughter-in-law came to scold me, saying that I was the one who told everyone.”

"Someone asked you to take the blame." Bai Banxia immediately figured out the meaning.

"I said it wasn't me, but she insisted that several people heard what I said. Later, when I was washing clothes by the river, someone said that the second daughter-in-law of the village chief's family had been taken advantage of by a leper from the next village."

Zhang Lingzhi showed an annoyed look, "I was stupid at the time, and I angrily said that the leper should be so arrogant that he should have his legs broken. As a result, the village chief's second daughter-in-law hanged herself that night. If she hadn't been discovered in time, no one would have died.

Then it was said that I was the one who said it."

Bai Banxia suddenly realized, she felt that when Wang Taohua's family came to make trouble, the village chief seemed to be impartial, but was a little biased. How dare this happen in the past.

"Later, the village spread that I was a talkative woman, saying that my gossip almost killed the village chief's second daughter-in-law. Later, whenever there were rumors, they blamed me, and I didn't dare to go out and talk to anyone." Zhang Lingzhi pointed to the sky.

Swear, "My dearest daughter, I swear I really am not telling the truth."

Bai Banxia patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "Mom, I believe you, and you can't make up those things with your brain."

"Isn't that right?" Zhang Lingzhi suddenly reacted, "Damn girl, are you saying that my mother is stupid?"

Bai Banxia laughed loudly, "No, no, I mean, my mother's brain is not used for that kind of thing."

Zhang Lingzhi knew that her daughter was teasing her on purpose, fearing that she would be depressed, so she couldn't help but laugh, and her depressed mood just now improved.

My daughter is such a considerate little cotton-padded jacket!

The two of them went to the town while chatting, and quickly bought oil, salt and sauce, as well as some oil paper to pack food.

When they arrived at the door of the cloth shop, Bai Banxia smiled and said to her mother, "Let's go and cut some cloth for you and dad to make clothes."

"It's not the Chinese New Year, so what are you going to wear?" Zhang Lingzhi saw the shopkeeper coming out to welcome her, and hurriedly pulled her daughter in and whispered, "How much money do you have left after buying the needles? Don't waste it."

"The work clothes for you must be made!" Bai Banxia said decisively, and then she pulled Zhang Lingzhi into the store to pick them up.

She had already thought about it. Her parents should wear clothes of the same color, and the color should not be dull so that people would know from a distance that it was from the Jianbing Guozi store.

The fabric doesn't have to be too good, it should be comfortable and easy to work with.

"This one is sapphire blue," Bai Banxia said, pointing to the brighter muslin.

Zhang Lingzhi kept shaking his head, "No, no, it's too dirty, and we can just wear coarse cloth."

"Mom, you have to listen to me today. The clothes you and dad wear represent the image of our food stall and cannot be improvised. The clothes should be fine cotton, and then cut a piece of cheap brown coarse cloth to make an apron and sleeves." Bai Ban

Xia pointed to the coarse cloth next to him again.

The shopkeeper heard this interestingly and asked, "Do you care about image when doing food business?"

"That's not true. When the guests look comfortable and clean, they feel comfortable eating, and if it tastes good, they will naturally want to come." Bai Banxia said with a smile.

The shopkeeper tasted it carefully, and it seemed to make sense.

Bai Banxia's smiling eyes narrowed, "Just wait and see, when our business gets better, maybe many foodies in the town will learn to make uniform clothes, and your cloth will be better sold by then."

, so why don’t you give us this coarse cloth as an extra?”

"Okay, okay, okay, I accept your good advice. If the business is good, I will give you a discount if you come to buy cloth in the future."

The shopkeeper smiled and agreed, but he only thought that this statement was just a casual comment made by the customer just to get a head start. It wasn't until not long after that he realized that the fat girl that day really didn't say it casually.

"My daughter, you don't make clothes?" Zhang Lingzhi looked at the shabby clothes on her daughter's body and asked distressedly.

"Yes, little girl, your clothes are too old and don't fit. Why don't you make yourself a set? At worst, I'll give you a 50% discount." The shopkeeper thought that this fat girl had a good personality and was filial to her parents, so she thought she was

I didn't have enough money, so I wanted to offer it to her as a cheaper option.

Bai Banxia shook his head, "I'll buy it when I lose weight. It will be soon, next month."

Afterwards, Bai Banxia took her mother to the blacksmith's shop to get a custom-made iron pan, and also bought a ready-made trolley that could carry a stove and light a fire. The money in her hand was only spent.

Zhang Lingzhi's face was full of surprise. This was the first time she saw the pot manager like this.
