Antique food: The general dotes on his lucky wife

Chen Xi stood not far from the shop and looked at the scene inside, feeling relieved.

I believe that the reputation of Chenji Baozi Shop will be established soon. The only worry now is that Wang Deshui will instigate Mr. Zhang to cause trouble again.

However, his cousin Guo Xingyuan said that he would keep an eye on them more in the academy and if there was anything wrong, he would definitely remind them in time.

The busy day passed quickly. There was a curfew at midnight and the shops on Pier Street had to be closed at midnight.

After checking the inside and outside of the shop to make sure there was no open flame, Chen Dajiang stayed to look after the shop while Chen Erhai drove the family back to Shanghe Village.

Ms. Qin, who came to help today, Ms. Guo personally sent her home in the afternoon. The two married daughters of the first and second households had young children at home. Chen Erhai also drove them back in the afternoon and gave them money. No, I can only fill a big basket of steamed buns for one person.

When everyone gets home, they start calculating today's sales.

Because the buns are sold as they are being made, there are not many of them at the end of the day, so I don’t know how many have been sold. You can't tell just by looking at the money, because there are still pieces of silver.

It was the first time for a small farmer to open a shop and he did not dare to leave money in the shop, so today everyone unanimously asked to take all the money back home, and they were frightened along the way.

There were two big boxes of copper plates alone. After a long day of counting, there were more than 7000. The broken silver was weighed quickly. Even if the quality was different, there were seven or eight taels taken together. The total amount was about 15 taels.

15 two!

Half a month's rent was earned back in one day!

Everyone looked at the pile of copper coins and broken silver in front of them, and their hearts couldn't calm down for a long time!

Finally, Chen Xi took the account book and wrote down calculations based on everyone's reports.

, after deducting today’s material costs, I earned more than five taels of silver!

This is because of the big opening bonus, two buns are one penny less. If they are at the normal price, at least three more taels of silver won't be a problem.

This store is the right one to open!

At this time, Chen Erhai's eyes turned sharp: "No matter what happens this time, we can't let anyone come to the store again to cause trouble!"

Chen Xi nodded, "I went to inquire today. Pier Street is not a government-run market. The Chengji Bank at the corner of the street is the owner behind it. They are also responsible for maintaining the peace of the market. I think if someone comes to make trouble in the shop, they will not ignore it!"

Those who can open a bank these days must have great power behind them, which is not comparable to that of a small county magistrate.

Chen Xi is not really an ancient person and doesn't know much about these things. He only found out after asking a few more questions today.

If she had known earlier, she would have opened a shop on Quay Street in the first place!

"Another point is that now that we have opened a shop, our business philosophy is completely different from the previous stalls. We have to redistribute work!"

When everyone heard this, they quickly cheered up.

"The first thing is to purchase goods. I see there is a rice noodle shop on Pier Street. I will go back and talk to them. We need flour. If we need more flour, we need to be diligent. They should be willing to cooperate with us for a long time and let them give it to us in the future. By sending flour, we save warehouse space and manpower.

In addition, I still want to buy firewood, eggs, vegetables and other things from our village. We can't let the people in the village watch us making money prosperously every day. Everyone is in a hurry and has no hope. Something will happen over time! "

After Chen Xi finished speaking, the others looked at each other and smiled.

"Xiao Xi

Whatever you think best, do as you say! "

"Then my father and mother will help collect things in the village. Then my uncle will drive back to pick them up. I saw the store today and there is not enough manpower. I need at least two more people to help."

At this time, Chen Erhai cursed in a low voice: "Those two bastards left for a month and didn't come back. I won't break their legs if they come back! They were not here when the family was in urgent need of help. If they were here, we might not have been able to do it last time." You can win!"

Chen Xi smiled helplessly: "The eldest brother and the second brother may have a better future if they run away. For now, let's ask Sister Ling and Sister Xue to come back to help. We can let them help take care of the children at home first, and we will give them a salary of [-] cents a day. !”

As soon as Chen Xi spoke, Yan and Luo immediately looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Although her daughter is married, she is still her own daughter. Her family is having a better life, so she naturally wants to lead a better life with her daughter.

They were thinking about it today, and the two of them even discussed it. They originally wanted to find an opportunity to mention to Xiao Xi about letting their daughter come to help in the store, but they didn't expect Xiao Xi to talk before them again!

Really! This girl seems to have grown up in people's hearts!

Naturally, Yan Shi and Luo Shi would not refuse, and decided to go to the two stores to call for them tomorrow morning. The number of people in the store would definitely be enough.

After everyone left, Mrs. Guo grabbed Chen Xi.

"Xiao Xi, seeing that the shop is open, when are you going to see me?"

It's all because of their daughter's face, otherwise their family's life would be so smooth!

Now everyone is smiling happily every day, except my daughter because of the sores on her face.

, wearing a face covering every day and not daring to see people, Guo didn’t say a word during the day, but in fact, there was never a moment when she wasn’t feeling uncomfortable in her heart.

Chen Xi held Guo's hand comfortingly, "Mom, if I want to see my face, I must first have money, and secondly, I must meet a good doctor. The doctors in the county are obviously not good, and the money is not enough for the time being. I am not in a hurry, and neither are you. Don’t be anxious!”

"How can I not be anxious! You are already sixteen, otherwise you would have been married by now! Now it will take at least a year for you to see your face, maybe even longer. If you delay three times, you will not be delayed two times, but what should I do!"

"Mom, don't worry. After this period of busy work, I will definitely take the initiative to find a famous doctor. Our shop is not stable yet, and we don't know when the Wang family will break down! When it is confirmed that Wang Deshui can no longer cause trouble for our family. After that, I will go to see your face, and when you look good, I will find you a son-in-law who will be a scholar who is better than Wang Deshui!"

Mrs. Guo was amused by her words, "I don't dare think about raising a son-in-law, but at least he must be a scholar and cannot be compared to Wang Deshui!"

"Okay, don't worry!"

After returning to her bedroom, Chen Xi took off her hijab and looked in the mirror. Her face in the mirror was expressionless.

There were dense, hard and bulging sores all over her cheeks and chin, which had been festering and oozing pus over and over again.

Guo is anxious, isn't she anxious?

But what's the use of being anxious?

Can the sores on your face heal on your own if you worry about it?

What she didn't tell anyone was that she had almost no hope of completely curing her face!

Even with modern medical conditions, it would cost a huge amount of money to cure a face like this, and it may not be successful.

, here, she dare not even think about it.

But if her face can’t be cured, won’t she survive?

No!

On the contrary, just because of her face, she has to find ways to create better living conditions so that she can avoid the troubles caused by her face!

All she wants now is to treat her face so that it doesn't hurt so much and doesn't affect her life.

As for what she teased Guo about finding a son-in-law, she was talking nonsense.

Getting married is not in the plan for the time being!
