The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

The next morning, Li Jiru and his brother arrived at the Jiang family early in the morning in a ox cart.

He called Jiang Yuzhou and went to the county together in a ox cart.

"Dad, where is the person you are looking for?" Jiang Muxia saw that he was the only one there.

"I told them the place and they arrived shortly afterwards."

When they arrived at the ferry, Jiang Muxia unlocked the shop door and asked Jiang Mutao to go to the backyard room to clean up.

He took Jiang Muzhou with him and showed him the places in the shop that needed renovation.

She wanted to build an entire wall next to Xu Ji Tavern all the way to the second floor, connecting it with a chimney, and leave an exit on the wall near the inner courtyard connecting it to the kitchen.

The wall leading to the backyard was built separately with a connecting opening where a stove was placed for heating meals.

She planned to use the same method for the three rooms at the back, the only difference being that they would not be connected to the kitchen. Instead, the three rooms would be connected by a partition wall with a hole left in the wall of each room so that the chimney could be blocked when no one lived there, thus saving charcoal.

When people lived there, they would use only one room to light the stove and share one chimney.

She said this wall is called the Fire Wall.

In this way, you don't have to suffer from the cold in winter.

Jiang Yuzhou followed her around the entire backyard of the shop and listened to her clear-minded instructions, feeling very refreshed.

He has been a mason for more than ten years and has never heard of or seen a house built like this.

"My girl, where did you learn this method of building a house?"

"Oh, it was Patriarch Xu who told me. He learned about this method of keeping warm from a friend from the Western Regions. The effect is very good. The only drawback is that if you want to maintain the temperature for a long time, it is best to use coal or charcoal."

Jiang Yuzhou's face darkened. "I was thinking about getting one when I get home. We can't afford those things."

Jiang Muxia didn't say anything. She had already made the stove, and when the charcoal was burned, it could be used at home.

But now was not the best time to tell my father.

"Dad, how long will it take to get everything done?"

"These jobs are not difficult. They will only take five or six days."

"Okay, I'll give you some silver and you can buy the ingredients you need first. Tao'er and I will go back to the tavern to work, and Brother Jiyi will stay here to help you. You can stay in the backyard room at night, and you can go to the tavern next door for dinner every day." Jiang Muxia took out the silver and handed it to Jiang Yuzhou. She knew her father well. His craftsmanship was well-known in the entire Zaoye Town.

After explaining everything, she left with her sister.

Outside the Xuji Tavern, Jiang Mutao held her sister and asked in a low voice: "Sister, aren't we here to work? Why is it different from what I thought?"

Jiang Muxia held her hand and said softly, "Tao'er, stand up straight and hold your head high. It will take another six or seven days for our snack shop to open. Let's help out in the tavern for a few days to get familiar with it. After our shop opens, we will be able to get started faster."

"Okay." Jiang Mutao obeyed her sister's words, straightened her waist, and raised her head. She was no longer as timid as before, and there was some light in her eyes.

Jiang Muxia lifted the thick door curtain and walked in.

"Boss, we're back. I have something to discuss with you. I'd like to borrow the kitchen for five or six days to prepare three meals a day for the craftsman next door. This is the cost of the materials." Jiang Muxia smiled and took out two taels of silver from her purse and placed them on the counter.

Xiao Chengzi smiled and put away the silver. "No problem, no problem. Miss Jiang is going to open her own shop. Congratulations." After saying that, his eyes drifted towards Jiang Mutao. "Oh, whose little girl is this? She's so pretty."

Jiang Muxia smiled and said, "This is my sister. She often stays in the village and has never seen the world. In the future, please take care of her and give her more advice."

Xu Cheng looked at Jiang Muxia enviously, "Your parents are so lucky to have beautiful and capable daughters."

The two smiled without saying anything, and Jiang Muxia took her sister to the backyard.

She had a huge responsibility today, she had to cook for more than a dozen people. Fortunately, there were enough ingredients in the tavern, so she could cook as she pleased.

She still had some selfish thoughts, so she made a bowl of shredded pork noodles for her sister first.

In the Jiang family, they ate mixed flour cakes and coarse wheat porridge every day, and in winter, they ate pickled vegetables. They ate so much that they had no strength at all and everyone was pale and thin.

This bowl of noodle soup made with pure thin noodles and pure lean meat is the most delicious meal Jiang Mutao has ever eaten in her life.

"Sister, it's delicious. It's a pity that my brother, parents and I are not here." Poor girl, she is still thinking about her family at this time.

"It's okay. We can eat it later." She remembered something and turned to Jiang Mutao, "Tao'er, you must remember. Don't tell anyone that we opened a shop here."

Jiang Mutao nodded, "Sister, I understand. If we let our family know, they will definitely not let us go. They will definitely try to get people into the shop. If we anger the owner of the house, we might even lose our jobs."

Jiang Muxia had a handful of flour, and she stretched out her hand and scraped Jiang Mutao's small nose, leaving a white mark, and said with a smile: "How smart."

Jiang Mutao's little face turned red and she smiled shyly.

Jiang Muxia prepared the food for the craftsmen separately from the food in the tavern. She cooked a big pot of stewed vegetables with mixed noodles and a pot of egg drop soup for the craftsmen. She cut some large slices of fat into the stew and used enough seasoning. She tasted it and it tasted good.

The meals served in the tavern included fried cakes, roasted spare ribs, steamed fish, pickled cabbage, and egg drop soup.

As usual, she prepared the meal and went upstairs to give it to Xu Da first.

When Xu Da saw her, he stopped what he was doing and looked up at her.

"What have you decided on doing?"

"Thank you for your concern. I want to make some snacks." Jiang Muxia had let go of her resentment towards him and said calmly.

Xu Da nodded, "That's fine. But the ferry will freeze over in a month, so it will be closed and will not open until after the New Year."

He wanted to remind her whether she should wait until after winter before opening the shop.

"I know. I've already made plans." She set the table. "There's one thing I have to tell you in advance. I built a fire wall in our shop. Once the fire is lit, the shop will be very warm. Do you want to build one in the tavern as well? The charcoal in our village will be out of the kiln in ten days or so. If you want to build a fire wall, you'd better buy more charcoal."

Xu Da thought for a moment, and then wondered what a firewall was. Why had he never heard of it?

But through the incident of the Treasure Well, he trusted Jiang Muxia very much, and he nodded, "Yes, okay."

"Okay, once the snack shop is finished, I'll have my dad come to the tavern to do the construction."

Xu Da became more and more interested in her. There were too many mysteries about this girl that he could not imagine.

These mysteries surprised him, but he also benefited from them. He was determined that the closer he got to her, the more he would benefit.

How should I put it? She was like his cornucopia.

He couldn't afford to lose such a treasure.

Xu Da's eyes were deep and smiling.

Jiang Muxia, you can't escape.
