Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 18, The Restaurant in Yaoshan County
After eating lunch, Xiao Qing went to grind for another half an hour. When he returned to the hut, he asked Mrs. Zhou to tear the linen to make a few small sacks for carrying the chili powder noodles.

Qiao Yu and Qin took their children outside to throw jujubes and pomegranates, and tomorrow they will take them to the county to see how much money they can sell.

Qiao Erjing continued to file the holes in the wood block. When she first came back, she stood beside him and watched for a long time. Although she saw a neighbor at home who was a carpenter when she was young, she was young and didn’t understand these things. The one is the horse pin, which is a kind of mortise and tenon structure. There are also pins and tenons, and the bed frame can be made without a single nail. She has never discovered that the Second Classic has this ability before.

She asked curiously: "Second Classic, where did this ink fountain come from?"

Qiao Erjing lowered his head and flicked the ink thread: "Mother, early in the morning, I went to ask Uncle Jiao in the village to borrow it."

This ink fountain is not available to everyone, especially the ink fountain and ink. Generally, the village can’t afford it, and only the Jiao family has spare money to buy ink. The Jiao family runs a Yueju Inn in the county, so they are rich and powerful, and they have everything at home. have.

Seeing that Xiao Qing was serious about the Second Classic, it is not easy for him to return the ink fountain to Jiao's family at this juncture, which will dampen his enthusiasm.

"Then return it to them as soon as you're done using it!" Xiao Qing urged.

I hope that when he can return it to the Jiao family as soon as possible, there will be no problems.

The Jiao family's things are not easy to borrow. Their things are very picky. Just like the rich people in today's era, the richer they are, the more picky they are. They have to pay back the needle and thread borrowed, and there is also a rental fee, let alone such an expensive ink fountain. The Jiao family is very difficult to deal with. I am afraid that when the second classics are returned to them, they will ask the second classics for money.

"Okay, mother, you go back to have a rest first, and when the bed is ready, the first one will be used by mother." Qiao Erjing said while knocking on the short board.

Xiao Qing had been busy all morning, she was indeed tired, so she went to lie down in the hut for a rest.

It was evening after sleeping, and when she woke up, Zhou Shi and Qin Shi had finished dinner, and no one bothered her.

The family had dinner around a small table, and Xiao Qing asked Qin Shi and Er Jing to accompany her to the county town to sell some mountain fruit and dogwood noodles tomorrow morning.

Qiao Erjing agreed that the millet and white rice at home will bottom out in seven or eight days according to this way of eating these two days. If you don’t go to the county to sell some wild fruits, you won’t be able to eat anything in the future. Earn more money to help Add some thick millet noodles at home, and it can last for a few days.

But this is also my mother's fault, she uses her own money to support the family, how can she spend so much money, the Jiao family only dares to eat one meal a day, and it is eaten with coarse rice and coarse noodles, and they live in this kind of thatched cottage The thatched shack is actually eating three meals a day, think about it, my mother is ruining the food.

But who told this to be my mother's own money? How can she use it and eat it? What can he say?

Waking up early the next morning, Mrs. Zhou got up diligently early in the morning, cooked porridge in the pot, and gave it to her mother, younger siblings, so that the two of them would go to the county town hungry.

After all, Zhou and Erjing are sister-in-laws, and they sleep with a wall separated by a wall every day. Although they are innocent, she is a sister-in-law, and there is always a difference. I just said that they gossip, a man has two kangs, and he can change the kangs when he turns over.

It happened that my mother bought cloth yesterday, and the first thing she thought about was getting a piece of clothing out for Er Jing, so as to avoid suspicion outside.

The last time I went to the county seat, Er Jing was still shirtless. Yesterday she and Qiao Yu drove out his and Qiao Cheng's clothes first, and saw that Er Jing was carrying a bamboo basket on his back.

"Ms. Yuanyuan, wait a minute, I'll get you something to bring!" Mrs. Zhou yelled when she saw the three of them and left.

Xiao Qing turned around and saw Zhou's thin body running to the thatched cottage, and after a while, he came over with a fine linen dress in his hand and handed it to Qin.

"Ms. Yuanyuan, Xiaoyu and I were kicked out by Erjing last night. I thought he often ran outside and was shirtless to prevent outsiders from gossiping. I didn't measure Erjing's shoulder width, so I followed the Dajing's rules. If you do, if you think it’s inappropriate, I’ll make it smaller when you come back from the county?” Zhou said sincerely.

However, Xiao Qing was moved by Zhou's words. She had been at Lao Qiao's house for a few days, and she thought it was inappropriate for them to live in the same house, but she always forgot to let them move.

It's okay for Erjing and Qin's to live in the same house, and it's okay for the children to sleep with them, but Zhou's is different, she is her eldest daughter-in-law, and she lives in the same room with her uncle. drowned her.

Xiao Qing urged Er Jing: "Er Jing, why are you standing there for the clothes your sister-in-law made for you? Why don't you let your wife try them on for you?"

Qiao Erjing blushed and said shyly, "Yes, mother, thank you sister-in-law."

Xiao Qing saw Qin's complicated expression, and Zhou's bright and unconcerned, she put down the bamboo basket: "Xiao Chengniang, I can't sleep alone outside the thatched cottage. The straw is placed in the outhouse, you and I will sleep together, and when Er Jing makes the bed, the two of us will huddle first."

There are more than a dozen people living in the two thatched huts, which are too crowded. The house must be built before winter.

Mrs. Zhou agreed happily, but she didn't expect that Mother would be willing to sleep with her, so she and her siblings would be saved from embarrassment: "Okay, Mother, I'll tidy up the sleeping place."

When the three saw Mrs. Zhou running back to the thatched cottage, Xiao Qing reminded them: "Let's go, it's almost dawn."

……

The most famous restaurants in Yaoshan County are Chijia Restaurant and Laiyue Inn. These two are opened by the relatives of the state capital and the county, and the next two inns are Qiao's Inn and Heyueju Restaurant. Secondly, there are some small restaurants and small inns, as well as some large inns, which will face the end of closing due to the lack of distinctive locations and dishes.

Laibin Restaurant is such a store, the shopkeeper is planning to resell Laibin Restaurant, Zhou Chuan, the shopkeeper of Laibin Restaurant, returned to Yaoshan County from Shangjing, because he had delivered original flavors to the palace before in Shangjing, so he had to meet him once Tianyan, because the recipe was stolen, and everyone in the world knows how to cook spicy mutton stew, she was robbed of business by other restaurants and inns. It was difficult to live in Shangjing, so she abandoned the restaurant in Shangjing and came to Yaoshan County Opened the guest restaurant.

Zhou Chuan originally wanted to use his skills to build a big restaurant here. Yaoshan County is close to Shangjing. Although it belongs to Huaining Prefecture, it has a population of nearly 10 people surrounded by mountains and rivers. There is a large population here. Opening a restaurant will definitely make a fortune. body.

Unexpectedly, the inns and restaurants in Yaoshan County have their own unique taste. Every one here is unique. It is too difficult to make a small fortune in this county.

The business is going downhill day by day, so the shopkeeper wants to give the restaurant to Qiao's Inn and Chi's Restaurant.
