Song female man

Since Xi's family moved away, the Liang family who run the tofu workshop seem to be a little bit tired.

From Mrs. Ke to Liang Erniang, Liang Sanlang was a bit sleepy, as if the tea and rice were not delicious. This made Xinghua complain when he met his mother Hu's wife when he went shopping on the street, saying that Xi's family members are poisonous, and people from her husband's family She was poisoned by them. Fortunately, Xi's family has moved away, otherwise even the child in her belly might be poisoned by Xi's family. It's really dangerous.

The wife of the Hu family also agreed with her daughter, and told her to eat and drink well when she was pregnant, and asked if the Liang family had killed chickens for her.

Xinghua curled her lips in dissatisfaction, saying that her mother-in-law valued those laying hens more precious than anything else, how could she be willing to kill them for her to eat, and now her pregnant daughter-in-law just produces one more egg than others when she eats breakfast every day That's all, the rest of the lunch and dinner are still the same as everyone else's.

The lady of the Hu family felt sorry for her daughter when she heard it, so she said: "Mother has raised more than a dozen chickens this year, all of which are prepared for you. They don't kill them for you to eat, but mother kills them for you to eat. In this way, you go back and eat them at night." Come home to eat, I will ask your father to kill a fat chicken and stew it for you, and you will be full when you come back."

Because the Hu family and the Liang family are diagonally opposite, and it is only about ten meters away, Xinghua often goes to the street to buy vegetables and can go back to her mother's house, so whenever the Hu family has something delicious, the wife of the Hu family wants it To leave a portion for my daughter Xinghua, it is reasonable for her to come home and eat chicken.

Anyway, for dinner that day, Xinghua went home to eat stewed chicken under the pretext of going back to her mother's house to get something. Her mother-in-law Ke, official Liang Sanlang, elder sister-in-law Liang Erniang, and niece Xiuer were left to eat vegetables at home. Tofu.

It just so happened that Ke Shi was bored and went out for a stroll in the street in the afternoon. When she passed by the Hu family's grocery store, she smelled the smell of stewed chicken coming out of it. She knew that the Hu family had slaughtered chicken and stewed chicken today. She was thinking at that time, It won't be that my daughter-in-law Xinghua will go home to eat again in the evening.

Unexpectedly, before Liang's family had dinner at night, Xinghua really went back to Hu's house under the pretext of going home to get something. After she left, Ke said dissatisfiedly to Liang Sanlang: "You don't care about your wife. Going to eat at my mother's house, it seems that our Liang family is so shabby, since she despises our shabby family, why is she rushing to marry in?"

Liang Sanlang has no objection to Xinghua going home to eat something better, but he is also a face-saving person. After hearing what his wife said about Xinghua, especially when Xinghua often goes home to eat, it seems that the Liang family is shabby, and his face is full of embarrassment. I couldn't hold it anymore, so I said to Ke Shi: "Mother taught you the right thing, my boy will definitely tell her about her when Xinghua comes back, but, my boy thinks that she is pregnant, and her mother's stewed chicken for her to eat is just taking advantage of you." Grandson, right, we don't need to spend money..."

After saying this, Ke's complexion improved a lot, and then he smiled and said, "It's Sanlang who thinks, anyway, Mrs. Hu's family also raised more than ten chickens, so let them all end up in your wife's mouth, and raise my grandson well." White and fat."

Liang Erniang heard her younger brother and old mother talk about killing chickens and eating them, and she remembered that when the Qi family left Yangliu Town with Xi's family, she gave her two reed chickens and asked her to kill and eat them after entering the city. It's autumn, she killed and stewed and ate to nourish her body. I don't know if she killed or ate.

Mrs. Qi had only left Yangliu Town for two days, and she missed her a lot, and wanted to visit her very much.

Since Daxi's family moved out, she has been thinking for the past two days whether she should also move to the city and start the tofu business in the city.Liang Erniang is very confident about her craft of making soy products. She thinks that if she moves to the city to do soy products business, she can also earn money in Bianliang City, and it will not be a problem to support her family.

It's just that she is not an impulsive person. She knows that Bianliang City is no better than Yangliu Town. If she wants to enter the city to be closer to the Qi family, she must make preparations in all aspects.

For example, she wants to find out the rent prices of the houses near Xi's rented place, and if she does business there, how about the sales of tofu?

Tofu, dried tofu, fried tofu balls, these things have small profits, and they have to sell a lot to make a lot of money, to be able to pay the rent in Bianliang City, and to support the family, just like the seed business done by Kijiro , He also made money by relying on big sales.

Wait a minute, why did she forget that Xishun sent seeds to the official stores and foot stores in Bianliang City, so can she also deliver bean products to those stores?

In addition, the most convenient way is to deliver tofu to Xishun's stores that deliver seeds through Xishun's relationship. Maybe there are regular vendors in those stores who deliver tofu and dried tofu, but Liang Erniang thinks that the quality and taste of her soy products They must be defeated. If two things have the same price, but the quality of the other is better, a fool will not want the better quality.Especially those official stores and foot stores attract customers with the flavor of food. Foods such as tofu and dried tofu are cheap, but they are indispensable ingredients for every hotel, and they are often served on the tables of ordinary people. something edible.

There are millions of people in Bianliang City, if she can bring the tofu business into Bianliang City, she believes that she will definitely make a lot of money.

After figuring this out, Erniang Liang became excited. She felt as if she had found the direction of her life. She also wanted to go to the city to get closer to the Qi family. She could see her often and finally won the hearts of the beauties. Embrace the beauty.In addition, it is to expand the tofu business, make a lot of money, and lay a solid foundation for living with the Qi family in the future.

"Mother, tomorrow I want to go to the city to congratulate Xi's family on their housewarming, and I'll take a look at Mrs. Qi, look, are you going?" I decided to go to the city to find Mrs. Qi, and by the way, see Xishun, and ask if she can help After Liang's family sold the tofu to the official stores and foot stores where she sent the seeds, she turned to look at Ke Shi and asked.

After Xi's family moved away, Mrs. Ke lost her old talking sister, Mrs. Liu, and felt quite lonely these two days. At this moment, she was tempted to hear her daughter talk about going to the city to see her old neighbors. She even said Alright, let's go to the city tomorrow to see the Xi family who moved into their new home.

Liang Erniang then arranged for her younger brother and younger sister-in-law to guard the stall. She would take her mother and Xiuer into the city tomorrow to visit Xi's family. The business has been handed over to the younger brother and sister-in-law in the past few days.

Liang Sanlang was surprised when he heard it, and asked his sister if she went to the city to visit Xi's family, and would she stay at their home for a few days?

"Yes, in case someone stays, my mother and I will stay for a few days before coming back. If you feel that you are too busy, you can make less tofu these few days." Liang Erniang said, she didn't want to put herself She intends to tell her younger brother that in fact, this time she went to the city, apart from meeting the Qi family, she also wanted to investigate the tofu business in Bianliang City, as well as the rent in the city, etc. If possible, she would like to rent a place with a yard in the back , there is a small house with a door face in front, the door face house can retail tofu and dried tofu, etc., the workshop behind makes a lot of bean products and sends them to the main store and foot store, and wholesales to some tofu vendors.

Liang Sanlang listened to his elder sister's words, thinking that maybe the family would like to stay with guests, and it is rare for his elder sister, old mother and nephew to go to the city, so he agreed, saying: "Second sister and mother, And Xiu'er will go to the city to have a good time and come back, Xinghua and I can handle the family business."

Liang Erniang nodded, and then discussed with the old lady what gifts to bring when they went to the city tomorrow to congratulate Xi's family on their housewarming. The greens that come out are suitable.

When she got up the next day, Liang Erniang carried a basket with fresh tofu in a porcelain box made in the morning, freshly made dried tofu and tofu balls wrapped in lotus leaves, and some green vegetables just picked from the field. The old woman and Xiu'er rented a donkey cart and went into the city to see the Qi family, congratulating Xi's family on their housewarming.

At three poles in the sun, the donkey cart that Liang Erniang and others were sitting in came to the Xi's house on Zaoshu Street. After getting out of the cart, Liang Erniang asked a middle-aged man who sold charcoal in the shop on the right side of the house if he lived here. The Xi Family moved from Yangliu Town.

The middle-aged man was Shi Shi's father. After the shop was cleaned up in the past two days, Shun Niang transported some charcoal and piled it in the shop. After choosing a date, she decided to open it for business.The chosen day was September [-]th, which was the second day after Liang Erniang and others arrived in Bianliang City.At this moment, the charcoal shop hasn't opened yet, only Dad Shitou is guarding it, and cleaning the shop by the way.

Father Shitou saw a woman who was as tall and straight as a green bamboo pole and asked about the owner's family, so he went to answer and said that his owner's family lived here, the Xi's family who had just moved from Yangliu Town not long ago.

Seeing that she found the right place, Liang Erniang turned around and paid the donkey cart rent to the driver, thanked him, then looked at Shitou's father again and said that she, her mother and daughter came from Yangliu Town, and her surname was Liang , I am acquainted with Mrs. Qi from Xi's family, they came to the city to congratulate Xi's family on their housewarming, please ask Father Shitou to come in and report.

Father Shitou asked Liang Erniang to wait a while, and he went in to find Qu Dalang's wife, Yi Shi, and told Yi Shi what Liang Erniang had just told him, and asked her to go to the inner courtyard to find Qi Shi or Liu Shi to report. They couldn't see the woman surnamed Liang from Yangliu Town standing outside.It is estimated that in Shitou's father's opinion, his boss Xishun is now a big businessman, and those visitors from Yangliu Town may come to ask for something, so he will not bring people in directly, but go to Ask the family members of the host family if they will see each other.

Mrs. Yi agreed, and went to the door of the inner courtyard and knocked on the door. After a while, Mrs. Qi came to open the door.

Seeing Mrs. Qi coming to open the door, Mrs. Yi stood by the door and told Mrs. Qi what Shitou's father had told her.

Mrs. Qi was overjoyed when she heard that, and hurriedly said, "I'll go out to meet her right now!"

After finishing speaking, she hurriedly walked out, she was so happy, she tossed and turned for half the night last night, missing Liang Erniang, really wanted to grow a pair of wings and fly back to Yangliu Town, talk to her, and then Dried tofu, drinking some rice wine brewed by Liang Erniang, feeling drunk, the days slipped away in the soft words and warm sweet wine.

When he ran to the gate of the outer courtyard, the moment he saw Liang Erniang, Qi's heart burned, and he stretched out his hand towards her, smiling brightly.

Liang Erniang also pursed her lips and smiled, stepped forward quickly, stretched out two hands to hold Qi's hand, and said in a gentle voice: "I came to the city to see you, and by the way congratulate Xi's family on their housewarming. And Xiu’er brought them, what a bother.”

Qi's eyebrows and eyes crooked with a smile: "What's the matter, I can't wait for you to come."

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to turn around and greet Ke Shi and Xiu'er to follow him in quickly.

Ke Shi and Xiu'er agreed, and followed them into the yard. After entering the yard, Ke Shi and Xiu'er looked around, surprised that Xi's family rented such a big yard.After entering the inner courtyard, I was attracted by the cleanliness and spaciousness of the houses in the inner courtyard.

Liang Erniang looked at it, and also praised the beautiful and tidy house the Xi family is renting now, no wonder it costs fifteen months.

There was a visitor in the inner courtyard, Xie Erniang and Liu Shi soon knew about it, and they all came out to greet the visitor.Mrs. Liu was also very happy to see Mrs. Ke. Although she met Mrs. Gu next door for the Xijia treat yesterday, it was a new neighbor, and she hadn't moved further. Ke Shi, the two of them have been together for more than a year as old girlfriends.Xie Erniang invited Ke Shi and others to sit in the main room, and then went to the kitchen to make tea, and served various dried fruit snacks for the guests.

Kecheng and Hui'er were also very happy to see Xiu'er coming, so the two children went to take out some toys they got after entering the city for Xiu'er to play with. The candies and snacks are gone, and I had a great time playing with Kecheng and Huier.

Xie Erniang made tea, came in with a tea bottle, and saw three groups of people in the main room of Xi's main house.A few children flicked, their little heads were playing together, and they gave out clear and childish laughter from time to time.The mother-in-law Liu Shi and Ke Shi sat together, they didn't know what to say, they spattered with spittle, and even the wrinkles were full of smiles.The sister-in-law was sitting with Liang Erniang. Liang Erniang was holding her sister-in-law's hand and talking in a warm voice. Occasionally, the sister-in-law would interject a sentence or two, but most of the time she listened silently with a smile on her face.

No matter which dial, Xie Erniang felt that she couldn't get in and talk, so she simply acted as a maid serving guests, pouring tea and handing them snacks or something.

Seeing noon, she got up and went to the kitchen to cook, and asked her mother-in-law and sister-in-law to accompany Ke Shi and Liang Erniang.

Mrs. Liu told her to cook a few more dishes at noon, take out some fish and meat from the gifts she received yesterday, and make a portion of the tofu sent by the Liang family. After entering the city, the tofu I ate was not as good as the tofu made by Liang's family.

Xie Erniang agreed, turned and left.

Because Mrs. Liu mentioned that the tofu in this city is not as delicious as her own, Erniang Liang followed up on this topic and asked how the tofu in Liu's city is sold and what flavor it is. Is it possible that there are no delicious ones? ?

Mrs. Liu said: "I have eaten tofu several times when I came to the city. Whether it is bought for guests or made by people at the banquet, I really have never tasted such delicious tofu as yours. Whether you cook it or burn it, you still think your tofu is delicious. The tofu in this city always has a beany smell, and some are astringent. It’s not like your tofu, which is tender and tender. Sweet, delicious! As for the price of the tofu in this city is the same as yours, they are two yuan a piece, the same two yuan, I would like to buy yours. Unfortunately, you are in Yangliu Town, It's not easy for me to eat your tofu!"

Erniang Liang was delighted when she heard the words, but she was still not sure whether what Mrs. Liu said was flattering or not.

After thinking about it, she felt that if she gave her tofu to the locals, and if they did what Liu said, then she would believe it.

So, next she asked Mrs. Qi, and asked her if Xi's family had hired a local guy after they moved to Bianliang City. Mrs. Qi told her that the middle-aged man who sold charcoal in the shop on the right side of the gate outside was, he was The father of Shitou, who has been helping Shunniang, is from Bianliang.Also, there will be two young men from this place coming in the afternoon. They are relatives of the neighbors on Zaoshu Street who came to eat yesterday. Someone recommended her nephew and relatives, and Shunniang agreed to let them apply for the job in the afternoon, and then she would personally inspect the two candidates who applied for the job.

Erniang Liang asked Qi, "Your second uncle won't be back until after noon?"

Qi replied: "This is because I want to come back to see if the two men who came to apply for the job are suitable. If there is no such thing, uncle will not come back until dark."

"There are so many people under your command, why are you still so busy?"

"She is not busy delivering goods, but is busy visiting more owners of regular stores and some small foot stores, and wants to sell charcoal and seeds to more people."

"It was really hard work, but it is also because of your uncle's diligence and willingness to endure hardships that your Xi family is thriving. The more days you pass, the better."

"Who says no, if it wasn't for her support at home, how could we live such a good life without worrying about food and clothing."

……

While talking, Erniang Xie made lunch, and then invited the Liang family to eat in the dining room next to the small kitchen.

This lunch was very rich. There were chicken, fish, and meat, as well as vegetables and tofu. The Liang family ate more meat and meat, while Xie Erniang and the others ate more vegetables and tofu. The vegetables and tofu brought by Liang's family are still more suitable for dinner.

After lunch, Liang Erniang insisted on helping Xie Erniang wash the dishes, Xie Erniang refused, saying that she would finish washing these bowls in a while, and she asked her sister-in-law Qi to accompany Liang Erniang to sit for a while.

Mrs. Qi led Liang Erniang to the room where she lived in the East Wing, and Xiu'er also followed Kecheng and Huier to the East Wing.

In the East Wing, Ke Chengdan lived in one room, and Qi Shi and Hui'er lived in another room.

Mrs. Qi led Erniang Liang into the room she lived in, and asked her if she wanted to take a nap. If she wanted to, she could take Huier to Kecheng's room to sleep.

"I don't sleep, I have something to say to you, and I want to hear what you mean."

"Oh, what is it?"

Liang Erniang asked Qi to sit beside her, then told her about her plan to go to the city, and finally asked her: "Do you think my method will work?"

Mrs. Qi lowered her eyes and thought for a while, and said: "Although I also want you to enter the city, we can get closer and see each other often, but moving into Bianliang City is not a joke. I told you yesterday Neighbors on Zaoshu Street chatted and knew that this narrow house would cost several thousand dollars a month in rent. Even if you rent a small yard with a well, it would cost at least five or six dollars a month. Let me ask you, How many pieces of tofu do you have to sell to earn this rent?"

Liang Erniang really listened to Qi: "One piece of tofu costs two pennies, and you can only earn one penny. The regular tofu is one thousand fast tofu, and Liuguan is six thousand fast. January is the 200th day, and it will sell for 400 yuan a day." This is still rent. If you want to support a family, you have to double it, and you have to sell 300 yuan of tofu a day. We are in Yangliu Town, and we always sell tofu for [-] yuan a day..."

Mrs. Qi answered: "You live in Yangliu Town, but you bought a house yourself. You don't need to pay for the rent. If you sell two or three hundred yuan of tofu a day, you can earn two or three hundred yuan. You can live well. If we leave the city, we will have a hard time selling so much.”

Erniang Liang chuckled, and said, "This is just a retail sale. We also deliver tofu to the foot shop in Yangliu Town, and we have to send out about [-] yuan a day. The two things add up to an income of three to four hundred yuan a day." But if it enters the city, I guarantee that it will sell more than Yangliu Town. Especially, if your uncle is willing to help, and is willing to push the tofu from our Liang family to those foot shops where she sends seeds and charcoal, I don't think the sale of this tofu should be a problem. Moreover, I have done the calculations. Even if the rented house in the city is ten yuan a month, I will sell the house in Yangliu Town and add some of my savings to live in Bianliang City. It's not a problem to stay here for two or three years. I don't believe that within these two or three years, my Liang family's tofu business can't be started."

She mentioned that she asked Shunniang to help sell tofu in the main store and foot store where Shunniang sent seeds and charcoal, which really made Qi feel that her eyes suddenly brightened.

Shunniang is currently sending two main stores, and about 600 small foot stores of Zhongsheng and Charcoal. Even for these stores, each of these stores only needs two pieces of tofu from Liang Sanniang, and they can sell 800 yuan that day. Tofu, plus retail items, can be sold for [-] yuan a day.Calculated based on the profit of a piece of tofu for one penny, that is an income of seven to eight hundred cash, which is more than enough to pay the rent and the living expenses of the family in Bianliang City.What's more, those small foot shops have to pay at least five or six yuan for tofu a day, and if each shop asks for six yuan a day, the income will be tripled.It's just that the Liang family may be exhausted to make so much tofu.

Mrs. Qi told Liang Erniang what she thought of, and Erniang Liang said that she was not afraid of being tired. For the sake of Mrs. Qi, she could endure any hardship and was not afraid of any tiredness.

Hearing Erniang Liang's affectionate words, Mrs. Qi felt good, so she said that she supported Erniang Liang's moving into Bianliang City, and she was willing to persuade Shunniang to help Erniang Liang sell Liang's tofu. Go into the shop where Shunniang sent the seeds and charcoal.

"I didn't ask your uncle for help. After all, she has worked so hard to get down from the shops where your uncle delivers seeds and charcoal. You tell her that if she is willing to help, I can deliver seeds and charcoal to her." If you sell 300 yuan of tofu in the store, you will be given 600 yuan a day as a benefit fee, and if it is [-] yuan, it will be [-] yuan, and it will be increased accordingly..."

After hearing this, Mrs. Qi calculated the account in her heart again, thinking, if the stores that Shunniang delivered goods to each store cost an average of six yuan a day, and there were more than 300 stores, the daily cost would be 800 yuan, which would be [-] yuan. Eight hundred cash income.Liang Erniang earns [-] Wen, and Shun Niang can earn [-] Wen. After removing the [-] Wen, Liang Er Niang can earn [-] Wen, which is as good as Shun Niang's income from seed business in one month. the money.As for Shunniang, she must be willing to get an extra ten pennies a month out of thin air.In this way, it is beneficial to both parties, and it would be a fool not to do such a win-win thing.
