Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 55 Discussion
At the end of July, Yang Meijuan's family of five left Heishan Town for Linfang County.

Before leaving, Gao Qing leased their shop directly to the Yang family through the government office.

On the night when they got the rental contract, the Yang family held a brief family meeting because of the shop. in it.Because she came up with Liangpi's idea not long ago.

Mrs. Yang and Li are sitting in the middle of the kang, surrounded by Yang Weimin, Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Yuan, Yang Weibai, Yang Weisong, and old man Yang sitting in the corner of the kang, forming a circle. Chunqiu sitting behind Mrs. Yuan looks very cute.

"When you came here, you all knew what I was going to talk about. Juan'er's shop has been handed over to me today. Let's discuss the matter of this shop together while we are free. Don't worry about it. You all have it." What do you think? You can talk about it.” Yang and Li sat cross-legged in the middle of the kang, squinting their eyes and scanned the crowd on the ground. Although they said so, Yuan and the others knew in their hearts that they still had to wait for Yang to say something. Li said it was better, so for a while, everyone was silent, Chunqiu looked around uncomfortably, at this time, her father and the men were silent, mainly listening to Yang Li, They are only responsible for doing.

Mrs. Gu didn't intend to speak at first, but after waiting for a while, she still couldn't hold it back. Besides, talking about the previous incident made her feel a little upset, and her words were a little weird, so she said to Yang Li with a fake smile, " Mother, isn't our family planning to sell the Liangpi that Qiu'er made before? Qiu'er is so good, why do you want to discuss with us, we are not as capable as Qiu'er, the idea that I came up with can satisfy mother" Gu finished He deliberately glanced at Chunqiu behind Yuan Shi, the dissatisfaction in his eyes made Chunqiu see it clearly, Chunqiu felt a little bit in his heart, is she being exposed?Then she denied it to herself, probably not, she also loved to eat before, it should be considered reasonable to be able to tinker with Liangpi, in order to make the appearance of Liangpi more accidental, she could deliberately eat pasta for several days, she did not believe that Gu's ingenuity can discover the difference in himself.

Gu's words not only made Chunqiu panic, but also made Yuan's heart unhappy.Immediately she raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Gu, and smiled very softly, "Sister-in-law, don't be joking, my Qiu'er is not as capable as you said, mother decides what to sell in our shop, just like Didn’t my sister-in-law eat Qiu’er’s Liangpi before? Didn’t she think it was delicious? Besides, Qiu’er made it after eating pasta for several days. It's because my mother likes the food made by Qiu'er, otherwise our shop can't sell it. Taking a step back, the things sold in our shop are not shared with the sister-in-law. Just like the soup dumplings before, the sister-in-law didn't Earn less." Yuan Shi looked at Gu Shi with a smile on his face, and his tone of voice was quite meaningful. What the sister-in-law said was a bit harsh, if it was aimed at her, it would be fine, but what did the sister-in-law mean? Is it wrong to work hard to make money for the Yang family?Yuan Shi was almost blown away by Gu Shi's words, even Chunqiu pulling Yuan Shi aside did not let Yuan Shi stop talking.

When Mrs. Gu heard what Mrs. Yuan said, she felt a little guilty and lacked confidence, but she didn't admit defeat at all, "Oh, I said brother and sister, your Qiu'er is so powerful, why don't people say a few words, my sister-in-law It doesn't mean anything else, it's just envy, just like the soup dumpling business before, I really envy my brother and sister for having such a golden doll, oh, why don't I have such a good girl?" Gu said, still With a trace of unnaturalness, the words that sounded like compliments came to Yuan's ears like complaints, and Yuan's heart felt a little depressed.Gu's heart felt uncomfortable after she finished speaking. Qiu'er was just like her Hua'er before she kowtowed, she only knew to eat and eat every day. Although she usually made some snacks, they were not as delicious as they are now. I didn't notice that she had knocked her head before and took some stock to look at it, and it was really distressing for a while.

I didn't expect it to be so good now. After this girl kowtowed her head, she suddenly became enlightened. She can not only eat, but also cook. How can Mrs. Gu swallow this breath? Before, she thought this little niece was good. Now, Seeing Chunqiu, Gu's heart was very blocked, especially when compared with the one in her family who only knew how to eat, it made Gu's even more angry.

"Okay, okay, what are you talking about, what are you talking about with your siblings?" Yang Weimin couldn't stand it anymore, and his face was even more embarrassed. He quickly reached out and grabbed Gu's cuff, and whispered Gu warned, and after speaking, he glanced at Yang Weibo, his eyes were full of apology.Seeing his elder brother's embarrassed appearance, Yang Weibo smiled indifferently, and it was not his elder brother's fault.

Yang Weibo's side is fine, Yang Weimin just breathed a sigh of relief when he laughed again at Gu's words.

"Hmph, it's not that you're useless, otherwise, why is our house like this?" Mrs. Gu didn't notice Yang Weimin's expression, she was a little angry at Yang Weimin's action of pulling her, and immediately sent all the anger Yuan's received to Yang Weimin .If it weren't for the uselessness of their big house, it wouldn't be that Liangpi is such a good income, and her family has the least proportion.This is what makes Gu's most unbalanced, why should they get the least points, since their eldest room also contributes their efforts.

It's just that Mrs. Gu didn't think about it carefully. Whether it's Fang Zi or the capital contribution, it's all owned by Mrs. Yang Li and the second room. Taking their big house is already a family relationship.

"Huh, who are you saying that is useless? Boss, I think you feel that you are living a better life, and you don't want to live a good life. Why, is this dissatisfied with my allocation? You don't agree with me. Look in the mirror and take a good look. Whether it’s the formula or the money, did your boss give you a cent? Ah? The dividends for you are also for the sake of the boss and a few children. What are you dissatisfied with? No dissatisfaction Just nothing." Li Shi Yang looked at Gu Shi with a sullen face and motionless, his eyes were cold, and he looked at Gu Shi with cold air all over his body.

"Mother, I didn't mean that..." Mrs. Gu felt a little numb from the sight, so she had to bite the bullet and give in to Mrs. Yang, but Mrs. Yang ignored her, and then sneered, "Didn't you mean that? Then What do you mean? You are explaining to my old lady. What does it mean to be envious of the Yuan family? What is it to be envious of having a good girl? My wife, I have little knowledge, but I don’t understand what you mean. The soup dumpling business is making a lot of money, right? After Yang and Li finished speaking, her voice suddenly turned up, "You don't know who came up with the soup dumpling business. Are you ignoring your conscience when you say this, ah? Has your conscience been eaten by a dog? You are a conscientious thing. "The sudden high-pitched voice startled Chunqiu on the side. When Chunqiu looked up, she saw her nanny looking at Gu Shi with a ferocious expression, staring at her aunt and trembling, and almost fell off the stool.

"Look at your two daughters, Hua'er or Nier, which one is sorry for you? Huh? Did you not work for you or pick up duck eggs for you, you idiot, I really regret letting the boss marry you." Yang Lishi After scolding, he also took a mouthful of Gu Shi, as if he wanted to cut Gu Shi into pieces.

"Okay, boss, you go back and take care of it. I don't need to teach you this, I think this is a good life. Some people don't know their surnames anymore, and they forgot how they borrowed money before. Huh, go back and let her remember it well, bah, did you forget how it came here in the first place? A thing without a conscience, an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf." Yang Li deliberately bit some words a little hard, looking at Gu's Hearing the guilty look on his face after borrowing money, Yang Li's eyes deepened. She didn't care about Gu's giving the family's money to her prodigal natal family, and she didn't feel sorry for the boss. What did you say back then?The contract of sale in black and white is still in Yang Lishi's hands. If it weren't for the pity of Gu Shi and her useless mother, Yang Lishi wouldn't turn a blind eye to it. What now?Gu's own reasons are still there, but she doesn't dare to jump up in fear of death, and is still here talking about her good granddaughter?Hmph, they're all a bunch of scumbags.After Yang Li scolded Gu, he continued to scold Yang Weimin. Yang Weimin nodded and bowed when he said it, and then stopped.

Yang Lishi looked at Gu Shi who was guilty and scared, and gave him a fierce look. His eyes were shallow and he was useless.

"Okay, let's get down to business now. If our family sells Liangpi, we can't just sell this one. How about this? I will also sell the duck eggs I marinated before, like the wild game that I used to hunt from the mountains. Take the flavored jerky and sell it." Yang Li's face darkened, her tone was a little serious, she had never opened a shop, so she really didn't know what she was selling.

"Mother, why don't we sell buns? Didn't many people eat them before?" Mrs. Gu couldn't help being tempted when she heard what Yang and Li said. her.

Mrs. Yang and Li glanced at Mrs. Gu, looking at the worried face of the other party, her tone was not as harsh as before, but she just shook her head and refused, "No, there is a steamed stuffed bun shop opposite our house, and we can't compete with others for business. come, don't offend anyone"

"Isn't that business just to offend people? Our buns are delicious, so what are you afraid of? Don't you still have the king's law? I don't believe they dare to do it." Mrs. Gu didn't hear Mrs. Yang and Li scolding her, but returned her. She was a little excited, thinking that Mrs. Yang and Li were not angry anymore.

She felt a little indifferent to Yang Li's explanation, what's the matter, isn't it just business competition?It’s fine for their family to make money, and it doesn’t matter what other people’s families do, it’s not about giving them money?
Listening to Gu's words, Mrs. Yang and Li scolded the idiot in her heart, why are her eyelids so shallow, she knows how much money she has, if she dies one day, how much money do you have?It's not that you can only do it openly, "Boss, take care of this idiot for me, don't let her talk anymore." Yang Li said to Yang Weimin without even looking at Gu.

"Hey, I got it, mother, let's go back now, mother, just tell me the result of your discussion, anyway, we can do our best." After Yang Weimin finished speaking, he got up and pulled Gu Shi aside, and directly pulled Gu Shi away. After leaving the main house, it didn't matter whether Gu Shile was happy or not.

As soon as Mrs. Gu left, Chunqiu felt comfortable all over. I have to say, her aunt hadn't really been annoying before, why is she like this?Chunqiu was a little puzzled.

"Okay, the idiot is gone, let's continue." Yang and Li didn't even lift their eyelids.I thought it was good to go, otherwise how could I be so clean.

"Grandmother, why don't we sell some cold noodles to eat? It's what I made before. It's not difficult to make. It's also suitable for summer. You can also make some pickles." Chunqiu looked at the people in front of him. Smoking dry cigarettes by the side of the kang, he didn't speak, his younger uncle Yang Weisong was thinking about something, and the other three people were also familiar with Chunqiu, so Chunqiu let go of his mind and started talking.

"Cold noodles? Good granddaughter, what is this?" Yang Li looked at the golden baby in front of her seriously, not as impatient with Gu before.

"Grandma, cold noodles are noodles that are eaten in summer. Didn't Grandma eat them before? Tomorrow I will make them for Grandma to taste. They are sweet and sour. Eating them in summer relieves the heat." Chunqiu said, I planned the possibility of making serious cold noodles in my heart. After all, this is ancient times, and there are no machines to help.

"Okay, grandma is waiting." Mrs. Yang and Li agreed with a full face, and then asked, "My dear granddaughter, there is food for this sale, how can our family let them know that this is our family's sale? We can't go to the street to pull it." Let's go to someone." Yang and Li have actually been pondering for several days, whether Gao's shop is good, but there are no acquaintances there, even if a restaurant is opened, who knows.

"Grandmother, isn't there a market in Heishan Town? Our family will sell the cool skin at the market first, and then we will tell them when our shop will open, and that will be it." Chunqiu said it was very simple. Said like.

"Hey, that's a good idea. It's really the case. My good granddaughter is so smart." Yang Li's heart was moved when she heard this attention. Level, but also to attract customers, really kill two birds with one stone.

"Mother, but when the shop opens, how can we get there? The family can't do without people now." Yuan Shi was also full of joy when she heard her daughter's words, but she was defeated by another practical problem, that is, who will live in the town? Let's not talk about Gu, just talk about Yuan herself, she is worried about throwing the spring flowers and tigers at home regardless, take them with you, they won't come back if there is something at home, not to mention Yang and Li are old, and they can't Letting her go to the town alone, and there are so many animals at home, are all problems.

"This..." Mrs. Yang and Li fell silent after listening to Mrs. Yuan's words. She had also thought about this issue before, because the Yang family did not separate, and the income issue was even more difficult. "Well, let's do it on a monthly basis. , 30 days a month, the third child and our old couple are counted together, how about ten days for a family? The time is not too long, and it can be exchanged."

"Ten days for a family?" After Yuan finished speaking softly, she exchanged glances with Yang Weibo, who was beside her. Both of them were also satisfied. Ten days is really not much, "Okay, mother, there is nothing wrong with this time. I will just tell my sister-in-law tomorrow." "Yuan said.

"Well, that's how it is. By the way, Qiu'er will tell grandma, your mother, and your uncle how to make Liangpi tomorrow. After waiting for the market for two days, we will push the cart to the market to sell." Yang Li said to Chunqiu.

"Okay, Grandma, do I still need to tell you about the sauce?" Chunqiu agreed and continued, the sauce can be regarded as a secret of the delicious Liangpi, although making Liangpi is also difficult.

"Well, that's not necessary, you just need to prepare it every day, and whoever is free will send it over." Yang Li shook his head, and he still couldn't tell them about the sauce. In his heart, Yang Li thought it was her obedient What the granddaughter came up with was that she and the elders had already exhausted their benevolence, so how could they let them all hand it over.

"Good granddaughter, don't give this prescription to anyone, and leave it for yourself as a dowry in the future." Yang Li didn't shy away from Yuan and his wife, and said directly to Chunqiu, which means that you don't want to think about her good granddaughter, after all, They were all brought out by her good granddaughter.

"Grandmother, Qiu'er knows." Chunqiu looked at Yang Lishi's plan for himself, and was moved in his heart. To be honest, in ancient times, it would be good not to be patriarchal. It stands to reason that this prescription is fine even if Mrs. Yang and Li want to go back and not give them a share of this room. After all, this is ancient times, and they all came here like this, but her grandma actually thought of her so much , not only do not want her prescription, just like the Liangpi business mentioned earlier, their family also occupies a large part of the business, which is unprecedented in ancient times.

"Yeah, go back quickly, you have to get up early tomorrow." As soon as Yang Li finished speaking, he kicked out the people in the underground...

　The author has something to say
　　I feel it, from different perspectives, you can see it differently, just like Mrs. Gu, who borrowed money before and felt that she was pitiful, but from the perspective of Mrs. Yang and Li, she is a prodigal. After all, it is all the money of the Yang family...
