Chapter 1855 Try something new
Seeing such a heartwarming scene, Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but smile.
"Are you eating?" She called out and stepped into the house.
The father and daughter at the table both looked towards her, and Baby Luo's eyes lit up.
With her little hand, she held up the steamed bun that had been deformed by her torture to show Yang Ruoqing.
"It would be quite miserable for this little rabbit to fall into your hands." She said with a smile, raised her hand to touch Baby Luo's head, and then said to Luo Fengtang: "I will feed it, and you can go and rest for a while."
Luo Fengtang said: "I'm not tired. Qing'er, please hurry up and have breakfast. Being hungry for too long is not good for your health."
Yang Ruoqing said: "Then have you eaten?"
Luo Fengtang said: "I'm not in a hurry."
Yang Ruoqing was startled for a moment, "I just woke up and I still didn't feel hungry. You've been up for so long and still haven't eaten. This is really a waste of your body."
"Come on, I'll feed you, you eat first."
She insisted on taking Baby Luo from Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang had no choice but to sit aside and eat two steamed buns as quickly as possible, and then came over to replace her.
"I'm full. Now it's your turn to eat. Breakfast was sent by the chef of the restaurant. The chef came from another county and made a lot of special snacks from outside. You can try it." He said.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded, sitting aside.
There are several kinds of breakfast in front of you.
Rabbit steamed buns, custard buns, golden crab roe spring rolls, fried noodles, and pan-fried pot stickers.
Pumpkin porridge, matsutake wild vegetable porridge, crispy pickled cucumbers and diced radish.
Just looking at it makes you feel very appetizing.
Yang Ruoqing picked up the chopsticks and had a full meal.
"This custard treasure is pretty good. I'll go to the kitchen later and bring back two more cages. Then we'll go home and give our family a try," she said.
Luo Fengtang nodded.
In the morning, Yang Ruoqing went to the magistrate Zou's house.
By the time we finished dealing with the Zou family's affairs and returned to the inn, it was already afternoon.
The couple decided to leave together early tomorrow morning.
After finishing some preparations at night, we set off back to the village early the next morning.
In the morning, Yang Yongjin and Cao Bamei took Xiuxiu to send Yang Ruoqing and her family outside the restaurant.
"It's the end of the first year now, and we'll go back to the village to sweep graves during the Qingming Festival," Yang Yongjin said.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Okay, it will only take more than a month, so it's almost over."
Cao Bamei said: "Qing'er, we won't be going back for more than a month. We can only rely on you to take care of the elderly at home."
Yang Ruoqing smiled happily: "Don't worry, I will take care of you. Second brother has to take care of the restaurant, so you have to take care of the embroidery."
Cao Bamei nodded, "I will."
After watching the carriage of Yang Ruoqing's family of three leave, Yang Yongjin also helped Cao Bamei back to the restaurant.
A figure stood out from a corner diagonally opposite the restaurant.
It was a young woman dressed as a village woman.
The woman was carrying a basket in her hand. There was a handful of cabbage and two eggs in the basket. She had obviously just returned from shopping for vegetables in Wa City.
"Hey, am I being blinded? Aren't those the second brother and the second sister-in-law? Why are they coming to the county seat too?"
Chen Jinhong muttered in her heart, raised her head, and saw three big characters written on the door plaque above the restaurant: Tian, Xiang, Lou!
"Tianxiang Restaurant? Isn't that Qing Yatou's restaurant?"
"Why, come to the county to open a branch building and let your second brother manage it?"
Thinking of this, Chen Jinhong became extremely angry.
This mentality is so biased that it has gone thousands of miles away, hum!
…
At night, Yang Yongzhi closed the stall and returned to his and Chen Jinhong's small house.
"Jin Hong, let me tell you something to make sure you are happy."
After he entered the room, he excitedly came over to the bed.
Chen Jinhong lay on the bed and opened his eyes lazily.
"What a good thing? Pie in the sky?" she asked.
Yang Yongzhi shook his head: "There will be no pie in the sky, there will only be traps on the ground. I never believe in that."
"What good thing is that?" Chen Jinhong asked again.
Yang Yongzhi said: "I'm lucky today. I sold ten candied haws in one go. Look, wife, it's twenty cents."
As Yang Yongzhi spoke, he took out twenty coins from his body and presented them to Chen Jinhong with both hands.
"Daughter-in-law, didn't you say you haven't eaten meat for several days? I asked around and found out that the pork in Wa City costs fifteen cents per catty. Tomorrow I will cut half a catty of pork and come back to replenish your body." He added.
road.
Chen Jinhong sat up and collected the twenty coins.
"Why are we eating meat? I'm not a child. Besides, our family is so poor, so we should save our money first!" she said.
Put the twenty pennies together with the five pennies from last night in a handkerchief, fold it and stuff it under the pillow.
"There is a bowl of porridge left for you in the pot. Are you hungry? Go and eat quickly." She said.
Yang Yongzhi was overjoyed and said: "Okay, okay, I'll go eat right away. After I finish eating, I'll wash the bowl."
Chen Jinhong said: "Let's wash it tomorrow morning. Come over after you finish eating. I have something to discuss with you."
"Hey, okay, okay."
As soon as Yang Yongzhi turned around, Chen Jinhong went to dig at the bed board.
He dug out a small purse. Inside the small purse, there were still two to five hundred taels of silver scattered here and there.
Soon, Yang Yongzhi finished his porridge and returned to the house.
"Yongzhi, come here." Chen Jinhong waved to Yang Yongzhi.
Yang Yongzhi came to the bedside and said, "Daughter-in-law, what's going on?"
Chen Jinhong's face showed deep sadness, and she handed the purse in her hand to Yang Yongjin to see.
"These two to five hundred and twenty cents are our entire wealth now."
"I only paid one month's rent for this house. It's so shabby, but it still costs two hundred cents a month."
"We have to live a good life. Seeing that the weather is getting spring again, we can't wear this cotton-padded coat until spring and summer, right?"
"To live like this, pay rent, buy clothes, and eat, drink, and have sex every day, all require money."
"Even if you sell a bunch of candied haws a day, it only costs sixty cents. After deducting the capital, you can earn up to thirty cents, but you still can't make a living!" Chen Jinhong said.
Yang Yongzhi listened carefully, with a guilty look on his face.
"Jin Hong, don't worry, I will sell candied haws in another place tomorrow daytime. I will go to the area in Wa City to sell and inquire about the market."
"If someone wants to hire a carpenter, I will go. I will definitely make money to support you!" he said solemnly.
Chen Jinhong sneered and said, "Do we have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse? I have thought about it. Don't sell candied haws during the day tomorrow. Go to the county dock to carry big bags."
"Carrying a big bag?"
"Yeah, carry a big bag."
"I heard from the aunt next door that if you carry big bags at the county dock, as long as you have the strength, you can earn at least fifty cents in a day, and you can settle the accounts on the same day without arrears of wages."
"And I also have to take care of a meal at noon to make sure I'm full!" she said.
