80s Raising a Baby

Chapter 208 208 Selfishness
"Haha! I didn't expect Zhang Hongmei to have today." Chen Ersao said while putting the same money together.

Ye Qian just sat beside her and smiled lightly. The little money they earned today was far from enough for her.

After Chen Ersao sorted out all the money, she handed it to Ye Qian excitedly and said, "Quickly count."

I forgot to mention that Mrs. Chen is illiterate, and she can't do math, she can count things up to ten, and she stops eating anything beyond ten, so most of the time when things are sold, it's Ye Qian who gives the change.

Of course, the second sister-in-law Chen just couldn't count, but she accepted the money.

In this era, many women just stayed in the village, and many of them could not read and write.

Ye Qian took the money and looked at Mrs. Chen and said, "You can't do it! You have to let Jing Yue teach you when you go back, otherwise you won't be able to do this business in the future."

Seeing so much money, Mrs. Chen's eyes were full of motivation, "I'll let Jing Yue teach me when I get back."

"How much did we earn today?"

After counting, Ye Qian said: "The total here is 20. If we have 180 yuan in change, I will take it out first, and it will be [-]. I sold [-] pieces. The cost is..." As she spoke, she looked through the account book , "The cost is one hundred and twelve."

Chen Ersao was confused by what Ye Qian said, and replied impatiently: "Just tell me how much we earn?"

Ye Qian: "Earning 68, the two of us can share 34."

Second Aunt Chen's eyes widened after hearing this, "Fengqin, it's true, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

Ye Qian frowned: "I'm fine, why lie to you?"

Second Aunt Chen: I'm just so excited, this is more than your second brother earns in a month. "

Ye Qian laughed and teased, "Did you feel elated all at once?"

Chen Ersao: "That's right! Let your second brother take a look when you get back."

Ye Qian: "Then shall we split up now, or put them together?"

Second Sister-in-Law Chen is following orders now, and immediately said: "Everything is up to you."

Ye Qian thought for a while, "Let's do this! Let's just share what we earn."

"When we buy the next time, let's add some to the cost by ourselves, and I will record all of these."

Second Aunt Chen responded quickly, "Success."

Ye Qian divided the money and handed it to Mrs. Chen, "Are you going back now, or what?"

Chen Ersao: "I'm going to cut some meat and go back!"

"Do you have anything else?"

Ye Qian: "It's okay, I'll go cut some meat too."

The two of them went to the butcher shop to cut the meat before returning.

When Ye Qian took Chen Ersao back, it happened to be the busiest time at the entrance of the village, and everyone gathered around the tree to croak.

Ye Qian frowned immediately when she saw it, but Second Aunt Chen was very excited when she saw her, "Feng Qin, just put me down from here."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qian hurriedly responded, "Okay."

Second Sister-in-Law Chen was thinking that she would save a lot of time for small talk.

Sure enough, the second sister-in-law Chen immediately became the center of the topic, and Ye Qian saw it and hurried over on her bicycle.

Back home, the brothers and sisters were playing in the yard, "Mom, you're back." Jing Cheng walked over with his mouth pouted.

Ye Qian: "What's wrong with you?"

Jing Cheng: "When you're not here, my elder brother won't let me go out to play, and the National Day has come several times."

Ye Qian walked into the house with the meat, and said, "You hang out with the National Day every day, what's the fun?"

Jing Cheng: "You don't understand."

Ye Qian: "You go! We'll make fried noodles later."

Jing Cheng swallowed subconsciously when he heard the oily face, "I'm not going."

Ye Qian: "Why don't you go again?"

Jing Cheng: "I don't want to go."

Seeing him like that, Ye Qian raised her eyebrows, turned around and went to wash the meat and knead the noodles.

Jing Cheng: "I'll go to see Jing Hui, and let elder brother and Jing Li do their homework."

Ye Qian raised her eyebrows, not daring to answer, "Why are you so obedient?"

Jing Cheng: "I've always been very obedient."

When Jing Cheng brought Jing Hui over to help Ye Qian, Ye Qian almost died of anger.

"Hey! Ancestor, this is not something you can take."

Jing Hui lay on the chopping board where Ye Qian rolled out the dough, and reached out to grab the bowl where Ye Qian put the noodles.

"Jing Cheng!"

"Chen Jingcheng!"

Ye Qian shouted towards the yard.

Jing Cheng: "Mother, I'm in the hut."

Ye Qian muttered angrily: "I'm so stupid, I believe you can take care of children."

After Jing Cheng drove Jing Hong and Jing Li away, he brought Jing Hui in.

When I entered the door, I shouted that I couldn't do it, and then ran out.

It made Ye Qian have to cook while taking care of the children.

In the end, there was no other way, Ye Qian tore off a piece of noodles and let Jing Hui play aside, and then she calmed down.

Ye Qian rolled out the noodles and put them aside. First, she fried the minced meat and then made noodles. When they were cooked, she took them out and rinsed them with water, then put chopped green onions, peppers, minced meat, and a little vinegar. it came out.

While Ye Qian was dealing with Jing Hui, she was cooking. After finally getting it done, Jing Hui also came out.

"mother."

Ye Qian: "How can you tell me that I can trust you to babysit me?"

Jing Cheng: "I'm not in a special situation."

Ye Qian: "If something happens, you should deal with special circumstances."

"Go! Call your elder brother and the others to eat."

It’s easy to make oil-splashed noodles. One person can serve a bowl and eat it, and there is no need to cook.

When Chen Zhongwu came back in the middle of the night, Ye Qian asked in a daze, "Why did you come back?"

Chen Zhongwu: "I'm delayed by something."

Ye Qian: "There are sliced ​​noodles in the kitchen, you can eat some yourself!"

"Okay, go to sleep!" Chen Zhongwu gently touched Ye Qian's head, and then went out cautiously.

In the afternoon, when Mrs. Chen came home, Mrs. Chen's eyes turned red when she saw the meat in Mrs. Chen's hand. "What's the day today?"

Chen Ersao: "There is not much time, the children are hungry, get them some."

Mrs. Chen: "Tsk tsk, that's really easy to say."

Facing Old Madam Chen's strange look, Second Aunt Chen pretended not to hear, "I won't tell you anymore, I'm going back."

As soon as she left, Mrs. Chen asked Mrs. Chen at the top of her voice, "Old man, old man, go to the town and cut some meat. We also eat meat today."

Mrs. Chen came out of the room with a bitter face when she heard this, "Mother, this meal is ready."

Old Mrs. Chen stared, "What's the use of you."

As soon as Mrs. Chen's side came into the yard carrying the meat, Jing Jin and Jing Yue surrounded her, "Mother, are you rich?"

Second Sister-in-Law Chen happily replied, "I'm not going to get rich."

Jing Jin stared straight at the meat and said, "Mother, I want to eat braised pork tonight."

Chen Ersao was a little hesitant when she heard this, she wanted to save the meat for cooking.

Seeing his mother hesitate, Chen Jingjin twitched the corners of his mouth to reveal a trace of sarcasm, "Aren't you rich? You can't even afford this kind of meat."

Second Sister-in-Law Chen looked at the boss who looked exactly like Mrs. Chen, and said helplessly, "Okay! I'll eat braised pork tonight."

When eating in the evening, almost all of the plate of braised pork went into Chen Jingjin's mouth, but Jing Yue didn't eat much at all.
