Chapter 108 1 Wishes
When Xia Qiyue came back in a hurry with a sack of fried peanuts on her back, the seven people including Xia Xinghe had already cleaned up the house inside and out, and were waiting for her.

Seeing her coming back with an extra-large sack on her back with great difficulty, the seven of them rushed over and grabbed the sack.

"Sister-in-law Si, what did you buy? Why didn't you ask us to go after you bought so many things?" An Youde and An Zihao both carried the sacks in disapproval.

"Hey... It's not very heavy, it's only over 50 catties. I can move my back, and quickly carry it to the west wing. Your work is coming!" Xia Qiyue waved her hand, took a breath and finished speaking indifferently, making people All go to the East Wing.

"What is this, Sisao?" An Sijin asked curiously as he followed.

"Fried peanuts!" Xia Qiyue didn't hold back and told them directly.

"Fried peanuts? Why buy so much? Are you finished?" An Sijin continued to be curious.

But after asking, I was still thinking, the fourth sister-in-law is really generous, and even bought fried peanuts for them after eating steamed stuffed buns!
"It's not for food..." Xia Qiyue just explained, seeing that An Youde and An Zihao had already entered the west wing room, she hurriedly followed and directed, "Put it on that table, yes! Pour it all out..."

According to what she said, the two poured out more than 50 catties of fried peanuts and put them on the table in the west wing.

There is also a heated kang in the west wing room, but it is not big, like a kang for two people. It is the size of a double bed, but there is a big table next to it. I don’t know what the landlord is using it for, but it is cheaper. Xia Qiyue, just right Sitting around here peeling peanuts.

"Xinghe, bring some firewood to burn the kang, heat up this little kang!"

Xia Qiyue asked her younger brother to light the fire. The room needs to be warmed up. It's too cold to sit here and work.

"Sister, the firewood in the backyard is almost gone!" Xia Xinghe didn't go immediately, and reminded his sister.

"It's okay, I'll go buy it later, burn it! Burn more!" Xia Qiyue didn't care.

"Sister-in-law Si, why do you need firewood? Tomorrow, the six of us will bring two bundles each and it will be enough for you to burn for a few days! If we don't have it, we'll give it away!" An Youde said.

"Exactly! There is plenty of strength!" An Cheng agreed.

This statement was unanimously approved by the six people.

Xia Qiyue knew that in their subconscious mind, they felt that she had given them too much money, so they wanted to help her do more work.

She smiled and waved her hands, "Don't do things like chopping wood! You have more important things to do!"

An Sijin, who is the most curious, is always the first to ask.

"What are you, sister-in-law? What are we doing?"

Xia Qiyue didn't rush to answer, "All of you move a stool over and sit down, and listen to me slowly!"

Without hesitation, the six quickly found stools and sat around the table.

There were not enough stools in the west wing, so An Sijin ran to the kitchen to find some stools.

"All right, all sit down, sister-in-law, tell me quickly, what is more important than chopping firewood?"

Xia Qiyue coughed slowly and said, "Did you see these fried peanuts? Me, I want to use these peanuts to make crisp candy for sale, so your task now is to peel the peanuts, and you have to crush them before you can use them. Crisp candy is a good thing, but the price is also expensive, one catty of candy can buy firewood for a whole winter and there is still some left over! These 50 catties of peanuts can make a hundred catties of crisp candy, which one do you think is important?"

What Xia Qiyue said was so shocking that the six people were a little shocked and couldn't find their own voices. One catty can buy a whole winter's firewood and there is still leftovers?

Fifty catties of peanuts can make a hundred catties of halva?
How much silver is this?Why can't they figure it out?

"Fourth...fourth sister-in-law...are you kidding us?" An Youde was the first to find his voice, and asked in a stuttering manner.

"You wait!" Xia Qiyue stood up after speaking, and wanted to talk to them about things, and let them know what they were going to do next.

She had to bring halva to a few people to taste first.

Soon, she went back to the room and came back with a handful of halva in her hand, without any packaging.

"Come on! Try it! This is crispy candy!" Xia Qiyue gave each of them a piece, not too much, just to make them feel like eating it.

Sure enough, the six people put the cubes of halva into their mouths in bewilderment.

The sudden sweetness made their eyes widen in shock, and they were so surprised that they were also conquered by the sweetness of the halva.

As the sugar melted, the filling of the halva was exposed, and the aroma of peanuts amazed them again.

"Sister-in-law Si, is this crispy candy? Isn't this too sweet and fragrant? I've eaten maltose before, and it's much sweeter than maltose!" An Sijin chattered.

It seems that at this moment in the mouth, the halva is like something from outside the sky, boasting so much that it takes off.

The other people saw that they were undoubtedly the same as An Sijin, and they all nodded in agreement. Even An Liang, who was usually seldom talkative and easily shy, also praised along with him.

"Yes! This is halva, let me tell you! This is a kind of candy I have researched, and I will make this candy to sell in the future! Now I ask you, do you want to make it with me?"

"I want to! I want to make candy with my sister-in-law! Even if I don't pay wages, I will do it, just give me more candy every day!" An Sijin swallowed hard and nodded his head like garlic.

"That's a good idea, a few more yuan for you to eat is more expensive than your wages!" Xia Qiyue scolded with a smile, then restrained her smile and said, "The wages are two taels of silver per person per month. You just need to come and work, and I will let you do it." You can do whatever you want! But the work is not as tiring as farm work, peeling peanuts, making sugar, and carrying the burden to sell tea eggs! That’s all, do you want to do it?”

After speaking, he looked at the expressions of several people seriously, but An Sijin didn't need her to look deeply at all, and quickly nodded again, "Fuck it! I'll do it!"

"Sister-in-law four, two or two a month is too much!" An Zihao calmed down his excitement, and reminded Xia Qiyue in a calm and cold voice.

"Yes! It's too much! If two liang of silver is used to carry bags, it will be enough for us to work for three or four months!" Anton also nodded.

Anton and An Cheng both went to the pier with their father to carry sacks when they were not hunting, so they knew.

"Making candy is not carrying sacks! Although our work is not as tiring as carrying sacks, we also earn a lot of money, so it is normal to give you a little more!"

Xia Qiyue answered, and then looked at the other three people who did not speak.

"Me too! My elder brother's opinion is mine!" An Cheng glanced at Anton, and then expressed his opinion.

An Liang nodded, "Sister-in-law Si, I'm also an idler at home, I can work with you to earn money... I did it!"

Only An Youde remained silent, and Xia Qiyue looked at him.

He looked at Xia Qiyue thoughtfully, and suddenly asked, "Sister-in-law Si, the guy who sells tea eggs in Maoshan Town looks a bit like you!"

Hahaha, this kid is waiting for her here, Xia Qiyue couldn't help laughing, it's okay to know, and there is no need to keep the tea eggs secret, the reason why she pretended to be herself was because she was afraid of being troubled by others.
