Chapter 106 The Wisdom of Life

Fang Qingqing later discovered that the wisdom of simple rural women was sometimes inferior to her.

At noon, Li's sister-in-law and Li's second sister-in-law were still in the county, and Li's mother was too lazy to move. Fang Qingqing was skeptical of her and Li Xiaomei's cooking skills.

Such a large piece of meat cannot be wasted, so I can eat some meatballs at noon and save it for my sister-in-law to make when she comes back at night.

The pig's trotters were not eaten yet, and the mother-in-law had already put salt on a tray and hung them into the well with a bucket. Fang Qingqing's idea of ​​eating all the meat in one meal and everyone having a hearty meal It simply cannot be achieved.

Sure enough, Li Sanlang, his own son, knows his mother better. There are too many people in this family and it is impossible to eat too much good food. Really, he can only hide a little private money and go to the city to eat.

Because of the two hundred coins, Fang Qingqing's feelings for Li Sanlang became deeper.

In fact, she has more than [-] Wen in silver, but Li Sanlang has the awareness to deduct a little from the money handed over to his mother to give to his daughter-in-law, which is worthy of praise from all young women.

Mrs. Li didn't come back until the evening, and now the noodle stall is doing well, and they are eager to sell everything before going home every day.

If it wasn't for the conditions that didn't allow it, Second Sister-in-law Li might as well just sleep in the city.

It was still the sister-in-law who cooperated with each other tacitly, and the second sister-in-law Li took the lead, mainly operated by the elder sister-in-law Li.

Chop the lean meat into puree, add salt, minced green onion, ginger and garlic, and add a few drops of sesame oil to the meat filling, and the meat is almost ready.

In the boiled soup, use a spoon to shape the meat fillings one by one and put them in. After a while, the meatballs will be cooked.

There is no need to add other things, just a bowl of meatballs in clear soup, but it is also delicious because it retains the original delicious taste of lean meat.

Knowing that Qingqing was greedy, especially the third child who paid the money today, so Mrs. Shi made a big bowl for her alone.

The rest was shared by the Li family, and even Li Sanlang only got a few.

The main reason is that Shi Shi thinks that this pure lean meat is not good, so if Qingqing likes it, let her eat more.

Tomorrow, stewed pig's trotters with soybeans is a good thing. Saburo should eat more and drink more to keep healthy.

After dinner, the whole family sat around in the yard to enjoy the shade. Fang Qingqing and Li Xiaomei went to the woods to gather herbs to make their own sachets.

Needless to say, there are no mosquitoes when hanging in the house on a hot day and sleeping at night, and hanging in the yard can also play a certain role.

It's more comfortable to talk while enjoying the shade like this.

First of all, Mrs. Li reported to her mother-in-law, how many bowls of noodles were sold in a day, and how many copper coins were collected.

How much money was spent on buying materials, and Ermao, the most clever among the children, helped to calculate how much he earned.

Originally, Mrs. Shi wanted the third daughter-in-law to do the math, and the third daughter-in-law not only learned to read and count, but was also very good at counting.

However, Fang Qingqing felt that the most important thing was to be able to apply what he had learned after learning, so he specially selected Ermao, who was the most capable in this area among several children, to teach him specially.

It must have been full of loopholes at first, but now the child's computing power is getting stronger and stronger.

Except for the soup noodles, steamed buns and marinated eggs, all of them were sold out, and a total of 1100 Wen was collected.

This number is quite a lot, deducting materials, because it is all my own family who have not yet calculated labor costs.

So today I earned a total of 750 Wen, leaving [-] Wen to continue to buy ingredients and calculate the rest on the spot for everyone.

After handing it over to Gongzhong, the rest of them were divided.

Holding the 350 papers handed over to her, Shi nodded with a smile, and specially praised the few people who went out to work today.

Old man Li is an honest person, usually he works hard and doesn't talk much, and the old Li's family has allowed the sick and talented scholar to study and save a little money over the years.

In fact, it's Shi Shi who manages it well. She is in charge of the family's money, and the family's affairs are also properly arranged.

Shi Shi arranges what work and how much time each person should do every morning, and then the family will work together to do it together.

As a result, this family will become more and more prosperous.

Taking advantage of the heat, Shi followed up and told everyone: "Today Sanlang also gave me a tael of silver, which is the money he earned by copying books in the past few days.

It doesn't look like much, just a tael of silver. You can probably earn that much after working hard these days. "

Indeed, the business of Li's noodle shop is good now, so they have the confidence to speak.

Then Shi Shi changed the subject: "But you are so many people who work hard early in the morning, and Saburo can earn money just by sitting in the room, so it is still useful to study."

Mrs. Li looked at her two sons, and Mrs. Li also looked at the sons. The two sisters-in-law looked at their respective men in the same way.

It is rare this time that the sister-in-law and sister-in-law have a tacit understanding and the same idea.

Shi Shi looked at them, twitched the corner of his mouth, but said: "You should know, don't blame me for being partial, why did Sanlang only study at home in the first place?

That is because he has the ability to read it with peace of mind. "

Everyone in the old Li family knew that Li Sanlang was able to study in the first place not only because of his kind teacher, but also because of his own ability.

He didn't spend much money on studying at first, but later it was because he saw Hope that the whole family was able to grit their teeth and support him together.

After selling enough, finally, Shi uttered the last words in his heart:
"It's me and your father who have no skills, and no money for you to go to school. But, I put the words here, and I will send your children to the academy if I have the conditions in the future."

"Now the third child basically doesn't spend money to study and can earn a little by himself. All we need is to save money to pay for his travel expenses when he goes to Beijing for the exam. So you all take it easy. What should work hard is still to work hard.

The third daughter-in-law of your business has also mentioned it to me. The stall has already established a reputation, but in fact, it can be bigger.

Now it’s just noodles and steamed buns. In the future, fried rice, pancakes and other things can be added. I don’t care about these.

When the business grows bigger, the capital is enough, maybe we can also open a noodle restaurant in the city, anyway, life at home will definitely get better and better.

Just one thing, your father and I are still here, the family is not separated.A family can live a good life together. I hope you will not forget your roots. "

This time, Shi finished speaking without a pause.

After that, regardless of the reactions of other people, they took out a string of money from the cloth pocket, and this string was one hundred copper coins.

Shi Shi doesn't know how to count, and sometimes she can't count too many copper coins, but she can count.

She has the wisdom of life.
