Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth
Chapter 46 Meal Expenses
Gu Wangshi was indeed being polite, but who knew that Gu Chen's thoughts had changed drastically after what happened today, so he just went with the flow and accepted the kindness of Gu Qingzhi and his sister.
Gu Wangshi helped carry the things in and asked, "Why did you buy so many things?"
She just checked and there was nothing else in Gu Chen's car, so how come they were going to the market to sell things?
Why did you bring back so many things?
"Mother, let's talk inside." After saying this, Gu Qingzhi picked up some things and jumped into the house.
When the three of them moved all the things into the front hall, Gu Wang was even more surprised. There were cloths, books, pens, ink, paper, buns, and even meat and bones!
She was very sure that she had only given them a hundred coins when they left in the morning, and she was sure that these hundred coins could not buy so many things!
I became even more curious about how they were selling mountain products at the market today.
However, the first priority is to prepare dinner.
Just as she was about to turn around and go to the kitchen, Gu Qingzhi stopped her and said, "Mother, wait a minute. These are the steamed buns I bought at the market today. We'll eat these tonight."
There were quite a few steamed buns and dumplings, but they hadn't been eaten yet. Together with the white flour buns sent by Manager Zhao, the three of them had dinner tonight.
Gu Wang took the two oil-paper bags handed over by her daughter, opened them and saw that there were quite a few of them.
Well, no need to prepare dinner, these big buns are enough.
Gu Qingzhi introduced, "These four steamed buns were given to us by the steward of the Zhao Mansion. Mother, you must be curious about who the steward is. Don't worry, we will talk about it slowly after dinner. These steamed buns were bought from the century-old bun shop in the county town. I heard that their buns are delicious, so I bought some to try with mother."
Forget it. All the questions she wanted to ask were blocked by her daughter. She tapped Gu Qingzhi's nose in anger and amusement, "You clever ghost, I'll deal with you later!"
After finishing their dinner of steamed buns and cleaning up the kitchen, Gu Yan and Gu Qingzhi looked at each other, then stopped Gu Wangshi who was about to leave after cleaning up, and they all went to the front hall together.
Gu Qingzhi took the initiative to explain what happened today. Of course, she and her brother had discussed it on the way. They would not talk about the sale of wild ginseng in advance. Gu Qingzhi would keep the money first and they would talk about it together when their father came back.
"Mother, today Brother Gu Yan and I went to the county market to sell mountain products. We have sold out everything we brought. We plan to go to the county again the day after tomorrow."
"Manager Zhao bought a lot of our mountain products today. He is the manager in charge of kitchen purchases at the Zhao Mansion in the county. Today we delivered goods to him, and he gave us a few steamed buns."
She had discussed this with her brother and only vaguely told him the general situation first. She would inform her family once things were stable. By then, she would definitely need the support of her family to proceed with this matter.
Gu Qingzhi counted out 30 coins from her purse and pushed it in front of Gu Wangshi, "Mother, this is 30 coins for the car rental," and counted out another 30 coins and put them in front of Gu Wangshi, "This 30 coins is for mother's food expenses."
Finally, she took out another 100 coins and said, "This is what mother gave us to buy food. But now we can earn money on our own, so we will give this back to mother."
Gu Wang looked at the 160 coins in front of her with amusement, not knowing what to feel.
She felt relieved that her child suddenly became so sensible.
But she knew how much a pound of wild fruits sold for.
Although she doesn't sell mountain products herself, the villagers always discuss it. She knows exactly how much the peddler Zhang from the neighboring village charges for each pound of mountain products. Even if the two children go to the county market to sell them themselves, even if the price is a little higher, how high can it be?
Originally, the two younger ones wanted to go to the county town to sell mountain products. She felt it was not a good idea to undermine their self-confidence and thought it would be harmless. At most, they would just lose some money for the car hire. But she didn’t expect that they actually sold the products and were going again the day after tomorrow?
However, what was unexpected was that they also sold mountain products to the Zhao family.
She knew a little about the Zhao family, which was one of the most wealthy families in the county. Some of her embroidery work was sold to the Zhao family.
Gu Wang frowned, but soon she relaxed her brows. It was okay. She would not give up until she hit the wall. It was rare for Qing'er to be so enthusiastic about something, and she had something to do, so she did not bother with Bai Xiaolian, the guy with a mind as sieve-like.
Let them go out and explore. Young people need to see the outside world.
At least I still have the ability to provide them with a safety net.
Thinking of this, she reached out and took the 140 coins on the table, and pushed 20 coins back, "Just take 10 coins for the food expenses, mother."
"As for these 100 coins, mother will keep them for now."
By the way, I asked, "Are you going to the county town at the same time the day after tomorrow?"
Gu Yan and his sister were confused and nodded. The time they agreed to meet at the Zhao Mansion was before noon, but Manager Zheng did not stick to the time.
"Okay, I'll talk to your uncle Gu Chen about the time, or I'll hire his ox cart to go." Gu Wangshi said casually, and urged the two of them, "You've been running around outside all day, go wash up and go to bed early."
The older you get, the wiser you get. The two looked at each other and went to wash up in a daze.
Watching the two people leaving together, Gu Wangshi couldn't help but smile. She saw a pile of things on the ground. The pens, ink, papers and books that the two people had just taken away, and there were also cloth and meat on the ground.
Gu Wang first put the cloth away and put it back in the cabinet in the inner room.
Then she went back to the front hall and took the meat to the kitchen to process it.
When I opened it, I found a piece of blunt-edged meat, a big pig's trotter, two big bones, and a small piece of pig's liver.
I didn’t expect that these two children actually bought so much meat. I estimate that these meats would cost more than 200 Wen. Could it be that they used all the money from selling mountain products to buy meat?
That’s not right. There were also those pieces of cloth just now, and they cost several hundred coins.
While thinking about this, Gu Wang simply processed the meat, tied it up with hemp rope, and hung it in the well in the yard. Otherwise, the meat would go bad in a few days.
Of course it is impossible to eat so much meat at once. Half of the pig's trotter can be stewed, and the other half can be salted and hung up to air dry. This way it can be kept for a long time.
Half of the blunt-edged meat can be chopped up for making dumplings and meat buns, and the other half can be used for stir-frying.
It seems that Qing'er likes eating the meat buns very much tonight.
As for the corn bones, of course they are used to make soup.
She often buys corn bones to make soup, adding some wild delicacies. It is fresh, fragrant and nutritious, and Qing'er likes it the most.
After taking care of all this, she took out the white flour and kneaded it, then placed it under the windowsill of the kitchen to ferment overnight so that she could make dumplings and buns the next day.
