Portable Space: Traveling through Nongmen

Chapter 226
Shen Yingshu and Zhou Yurong breathed a sigh of relief, and they were able to rest.

"Yulin and Qingzhou left, it's really too much to rely on us alone." Zhou Yurong said while panting.

"It's really too busy." Shen Yingshu was also tired enough, she asked tentatively, "Mom, why don't we hire some more people to work, otherwise we might really be too busy alone."

It was only half the morning and they were already exhausted like this, and there were still peak hours at noon and evening.

After a day's work, a few of them will not be able to survive.

Zhou Yurong originally wanted to say no, but thinking about the situation in the shop carefully, I'm afraid it would be too busy with just a few of them.

Compared with the copper plates that are given by others, entertaining a few more guests will earn back the money.

So, "OK, let's hire people."

"Success! It's a little late now, and it's time for lunch in a while. After noon, there are fewer people. Shall I go and have a look?"

Seeing that Zhou Yurong directly agreed, Shen Yingshu was also happy.

"Need not."

"why?"

Shen Yingshu asked strangely, didn't mother just agree to recruit someone?

Zhou Yurong pondered for a while, and then said, "Go to the street to recruit people. We are not familiar with people. I wonder if there are any capable girls in the village. When the time comes, I will recruit them directly so that the fat will not go to outsiders."

In fact, there was another reason for Zhou Yurong to say that.

Now no one in the village knows that Yingshu has opened a shop in the town, so they won't gossip.

But if he knew, his words would be even worse. If he asked the girls and men in the village for help, if Yingshu was found out when he was opening a shop in the town, he would still have someone to help him speak.

They have already opened a shop in the town, and they can still think about the people in their own village, so that they can gain a good reputation by then.

Shen Yingshu thought for a while, and understood the meaning of Zhou Yurong's words, "That's fine, then is there anyone in my mother's heart?"

Her mind is also active. People in the village who are looking for work are able to work hard and don't like to talk too much. There is still someone in her heart.

"I know that there is a pretty good girl in our village. That girl is very similar to you when you were a child. She is shy, but although she doesn't like to talk, she is very capable."

Zhou Yurong searched and finally found a candidate. The girl was young, only twelve or thirteen years old.

Because of her temper, Zhou Yurong didn't have a good relationship with many people in the village, but she also had a good relationship with some people.

The reason why she was able to notice that little girl was because she met her when she was washing clothes. The little girl had a similar personality to Shen Yingshu when she was a child, so she wanted to get to know her aunt who had a good relationship with her in the village.

Knowing that the girl's mother died, her father picked a stepmother for him. The stepmother has a son and a daughter, so she is not welcomed by the family, and she does all the dirty and tiring work in the house. This leads to introversion.

That girl has a good personality. When she was washing clothes before, this girl would occasionally come over to help her after she finished writing. She is also willing to help a kind-hearted little girl like this.

"Okay, I trust your vision, mother, if you say yes, then this girl must have a good personality." Shen Yingshu nodded.

"As for the rest..." Zhou Yurong searched in her mind.

There are quite a lot of capable little girls in the village. Generally speaking, girls in rural areas can take care of their families and work when they are young. They can cook on the stove at the age of eight or nine.

But Zhou Yurong didn't know very many little girls, and because of the family members, some families in the village were more rigid and didn't let their children come out to show their faces.

"Mother, the next person, you think about it slowly, I still have one candidate, and I want to find another one." Shen Yingshu said.

"Who?" Zhou Yurong was curious.

"Mom, do you still remember that there is a family of hunters named Song next to my house?"

"... Orion surnamed Song, are you talking about your Grandma Song's family? But I remember that her family has no girls, only one grandson." Zhou Yurong thought for a while.

"Yes, mother, the person I'm talking about is Song Orion Song Qingsheng."

The weather is getting colder now, and it will be winter in a month, and the mountains will be covered by heavy snow in winter. When Song Qingsheng goes hunting in the mountains, it will not be easy to hunt things.

Grandma Song said before that in winter, the heavy snow fan can't go into the mountains and go hunting. Song Qingsheng will go to the town to find some jobs to make ends meet.

Song Qingsheng is diligent and capable. He hunts all year round and has plenty of strength in his body.Generally, those who can hunt are those who can write martial arts.

Judging from the opening of her shop in the past few days, the income is more prosperous than that of other shops. If someone sees their shop as an eyesore and comes to ask for trouble, Song Qingsheng can still be a thug.

Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, and the money she gave is more than the money given by hard labor in the town.

"Being an Orion is full of strength, but I remember that your grandma Song is not in good health. Can he come to work?"

Zhou Yurong still knew about Grandma Song's grandson, Song Qingsheng. After all, there were only a few hunters in their village.Those who can walk back and forth in the mountains to catch prey are somewhat capable.

And this person was recruited by Shen Yingshu on his own initiative. Zhou Yurong still believed in his ability, so he nodded and agreed without any hesitation.

"Well, I don't know. The last time I went, I saw that Grandma Song's body was much better. I heard from Grandma Song that it is not always possible to catch prey in the mountains. Occasionally, Brother Qingsheng also Going to work in town."

This was also what she was worried about. She was afraid that Grandma Song would not be healthy, so Song Qingsheng could only stay at home and take care of Grandma Song.

"And it's going to be winter soon. Wait for the heavy snow. Brother Qingsheng won't be able to hunt when the mountains are covered by heavy snow. Grandma Song is old and in poor health. She needs to take medicine all year round. The medicine is expensive. Qingsheng Brother Sheng should come over."

"You're right. This pair of traditional Chinese medicine is very expensive. A pair of medicine costs dozens of copper coins. When you get old and get sick all the time, you have to take medicine every once in a while."

Zhou Yurong thought it made sense.

Because of Bao'er's health, Zhou Yurong also slightly lowered the price of traditional Chinese medicine.

This traditional Chinese medicine is not cheap. If you are a little sick and go to the town to get the medicine, it will cost dozens or hundreds of copper coins.

These are considered cheap, like Bao'er, who has some congenital deficiencies in abortion, it costs hundreds of copper coins every time he takes medicine.

Shen Yingshu's embroidered handkerchief and the little money she earned from working for others were all spent in taking medicine.

However, in the past six months, Bao'er's body has improved a lot, and she usually takes medicine every few days, but this will become a medicine every half a month.

It may also be that as she grew up, Shen Yingshu was also doing business, eating meat every day, exercising every day, and she became healthier after exercising, so she didn't always get sick.

What Shen Yingshu didn't tell his old mother was that Bao'er did take less medicine than before, but not only because of her better health, but also because she bought medicine with better curative effect.

A set of medicine costs a few taels of silver, which is much more expensive than those hundreds of women's medicines, but the curative effect is also much better.

At least Shen Yingshu had never seen Bao'er get sick, and the doctor Zhang who opened the clinic was quite capable.

Zhou Yurong said, "That provincial hunter is really capable, if he is willing to come over, it will be a good thing."

Shen Qinglie will work here for a few days at most and still have to go back. Shen Yingshu's house has a novel design, and he is afraid that those guys are doing something wrong, so he has to personally supervise to be at ease.

In this way, Song Qingsheng just happened to be able to step up, and both of them were good players with such strength.

"Okay, I'll spare some time these two days to ask Mr. Song, and by the way, ask Mother about that little girl you mentioned."

Shen Yingshu nodded.

"Okay, besides this girl, there is another girl in my memory who can do it, and that girl is also handsome, but I don't know if he would like to come over, I'll tell you his name, when the time comes, you go and ask... "Zhou Yurong said again.

Just now she thought about it for a long time, but she still fixed her eyes on the girl in their village who has a reputation of being virtuous and capable.

That girl is much happier than the little girl before, and her family is happy. Although she has a younger brother, her parents do not favor boys over girls, and they love her very much.

This girl is not arrogant and indulgent, she can go to the fields, cook and work, and she is pretty.

According to what Zhou Yurong knew, this girl was only 14 years old and had already been seen by her aunt who had a son in the village for a long time.

Just wait until the age of 15 so that I can go to the girl's house to propose marriage and get the girl settled.

"Row."

Zhou Yurong's vision was sure to be right, and Shen Yingshu made a final decision, "Then there are three of them. I'll take a look tomorrow afternoon and ask if they would like to come over."

Today's business in the store is even hotter than yesterday. According to some customers, neighbors around the house ate it, and they thought it tasted good, so they specially recommended it.

In just the past day, the number of customers has increased so much, and the whole town, no, not to mention other things, but at least there is no chili oil, skewers and Malatang in the whole town.

As time goes on, there will only be more customers in her shop.

However, there are more guests today than yesterday, but there are two fewer people working today, and there are many things that few of them are busy with.

There are many customers who choose the skewers by themselves and make the sauce for themselves.

Fortunately, Chuan Chuan Xiang tasted good, and these customers were also considerate of their busy shop, and were not angry.

But even so, after this day, several people were still so tired that they wished to collapse directly in the room.

During dinner time, there were still many customers eating in the shop, but there were no more visitors.

Several people inside and outside the room finally breathed a sigh of relief, Shen Yingshu and Zhou Yurong collapsed on the chairs, Shen Qinglie and we hurried into the back kitchen to help our wife with work.

Shen Yingshu reckoned that there would be no more guests at this point in time.

They were all very tired today, Shen Yingshu reckoned that Gu Lian should be too tired to cook anymore.

She saw that there was still some skewers left in front of her, so she would remove the vegetables and meat on the skewers later, cook them with some sweet potato flour, and adjust the seasonings, and then it was ready to eat spicy hot pot.

Simple, convenient, and everyone loves it.

She shared her thoughts with Zhou Yurong, Gu Lian and Shen Qinglie, and everyone agreed.

She suggested that she do it.

The ingredients for Chuan Chuan Xiang are all cooked, so she only needs to cook some sweet potato powder and season it, it will be quick.

In order to accompany the Mala Tang, Gu Lian steamed another pot of rice for fear that everyone would not be full.

When the rice is steamed and Malatang is ready, all the dinner guests in the shop are almost gone.

"Eat, eat, finally eat!"

Shen Yingshu brought the prepared Mala Tang to the table, and shouted loudly to the back kitchen, "Mother, sister-in-law, and brother, eat as soon as you put the food in. I'll go to the house and call Bao'er out to eat."

"Row."

Shen Yingshu yelled and walked towards the backyard. Today was a bit busier than yesterday, and Shen Qingzhou didn't play with Bao'er, and she didn't know that Bao'er was bored.

Alas, it is really too busy.

When the recruiter comes back, she will slowly hand over all the work to her eldest brother and sister-in-law, and she can bring Bao'er back to the happy life before!

Shen Yingshu was worried that the little guy would be bored, but when she opened the door and walked in, she found the little guy lying on the bed, with his eyes closed, his face flushed, a little foot playfully resting on the quilt, and beside his little hand was his night The broken building blocks looked like they were in a deep sleep.

Seeing the cute look of the little guy, Shen Yingshu felt that half of her exhaustion had disappeared. She chuckled lightly and rubbed the little guy's soft belly.

"Um...um, mother~"

Bao'er fell asleep in a daze, felt someone rubbing her, opened her eyes and found that it was her mother who thought she hadn't woken up, and fell asleep again as soon as she closed her eyes.

Seeing the little guy's confused look, Shen Yingshu couldn't control the corners of her mouth, "Wake up, check what time it is now, it's time to eat, are you hungry?"

"Mother~" Bao'er was still a little confused, but he saw clearly that Shen Yingshu was really in front of him this time.

He hugged Shen Yingshu with an aggrieved expression, "Mother~Mother~"

Mother is very busy these days, and he knows that he has been working hard to make money and treat himself for two days, so he never makes trouble with mother, but he really misses mother.

Ever since he was born, even though Shen Yingshu would occasionally help others with work, he was by Shen Yingshu's side most of the time, unlike now only when she was sleeping except in the morning and night...

Shen Yingshu's heart was so soft after being rubbed by the little guy, she wished she could take off the moon from the sky and give it to him. She also knew that she was too busy these days, so it was inevitable that she would ignore the little guy.

The little guy is sensible, but he is just a four-year-old child.

When he was awake, he could still control himself not to show too much longing for Shen Yingshu, but when he was asleep, he couldn't control it.
