After taking a nap in the afternoon, Jiang Miao continued to make cakes in the kitchen, and Cheng Huai came in to help her after he finished his work outside.

The pastry business is now on the right track. Jiang Miao has figured out more than a dozen styles and tastes. After a while, he can roughly estimate which pastry sells the best, and he can also be sure of the quantity to be made in the future.

"Daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhang is here." Cheng Huai came in with water.

Jiang Miao put down the tongs, "I'm going to set it down, my husband will help me watch the fire for a while."

"Go slowly." Cheng Huai came over and sat down, helping her keep an eye on the fire.

Jiang Miao nodded: "Okay."

Going to the front, Mrs. Zhang was sitting on a chair looking inside and out, still holding something tightly in her hand.

"Ma'am, what's the matter?" She walked over and sat down.

Not seeing Cheng Huai coming, Aunt Zhang's eyes fell on Jiang Miao's fair and cute face, "The old man said you are short of money, did you run out of money to open a shop?"

Jiang Miao was stunned for a moment, and then stuffed a purse in his hand, "There is some money in it, you and Cheng Huai can use it."

"Ma'am, Cheng Huai and I have money to use." Jiang Miao couldn't laugh or cry, and quickly pushed the money back.

Originally, he wanted to fool Uncle Zhang and tell him not to borrow money and be cheated. Who would have thought that Aunt Zhang would send money here.

"Take it, the old man said that you will come to me to borrow it. I waited at home for a long time and came by myself without seeing anyone." Aunt Zhang said with a serious expression.

Jiang Miao squeezed the purse, it was bulging and full of copper coins, it was all sincerity.

Seeing that Jiang Miao was still hesitating, Aunt Zhang couldn't help but said, "I'll pay it back when I make money in the future, and take the emergency first."

"Ma'am, why are you so nice?"

"You are pleasing to the eye. Your mother asks me to borrow it, and I will not borrow it." Aunt Zhang curled her lips, "If you borrow any more, there will be nothing left. Go to your mother."

Jiang Miao couldn't help laughing, grabbed her hand and stuffed the money over, "Thank you ma'am, but I'm really not short of money. I was fooling you in the morning."

"Did you fool me?" Aunt Zhang's eyes showed some disbelief, "What are you doing fooling him, the old man is alone."

Jiang Miao thought about telling Aunt Zhang about the matter. If Uncle Zhang really borrowed money, he would lose all his money if he went tomorrow.

That scammer has good means, and it will take a month to return the capital, but the investment is the second day after the return of the capital.

After waiting for a month, the day lily is cold.

Four taels is enough to leave a family with empty pockets and a pile of debts.

As soon as the matter was finished, Mrs. Zhang seemed to be on fire, her face turned red, and her anger exploded.

"Damn old man, no wonder you asked me for money today." Aunt Zhang squeezed her purse, "Fortunately, I hid it well."

"Thank you, Jiang Miao. I'll hide all his money when I get back, and I won't be able to find a single coin."

"Well, auntie, come to me and Cheng Huai if you have anything to do." Jiang Miao followed her back, "Don't fight, you will suffer."

"He didn't dare to really hit me." Aunt Zhang stood up, "I'm not mistaken about you girl, I'll help you take care of your baby after you give birth."

Jiang Miao: "."

Yu Ying came out of the house, looked at her with her hips on her hips, and said with a smile: "Why do you bring the baby born to my girl Miao, it's a beautiful idea!"

Aunt Zhang pouted and looked at her, "Stingy."

Yu Ying laughed angrily, "I will bring you the grandson, and I will keep the granddaughter."

"You are still so stingy after all these years." Aunt Zhang recited as she walked, and Yu Ying followed to see her off.

Jiang Miao withdrew her gaze and went to see Da Bao and Xiao Bao in the room. They both had a good nap and were wriggling under the blanket.

She patted the quilt like a hill, "Good boy, get up, mother will dress you."

"Mother~" Xiao Bao poked his head out immediately, still holding the rattle in his hand, shaking it to make a thumping sound.

Dabao pouted his buttocks, poked his head out from the end of the bed, "Mom, I want to eat cakes."

"Then come quickly and get dressed." Jiang Miao dressed the two of them, pinched their faces, and smiled softly, "Do you smell the scent of cakes, you little glutton?"

After humming twice, the two of them slipped out of bed and ran back while clutching the rattle drum.

Jiang Miao spread the quilt and walked slowly behind them.

In the kitchen, Cheng Huai was pestered by two children to ask for pastries. When he saw Jiang Miao, the man looked helplessly, "Daughter-in-law."

"You can't give them too sweet ones, let's use chestnut flavored ones, without much sugar." Jiang Miao pointed to the one on the far side.

Cheng Huai took the chestnut cake and broke it in half, and a child put half in his hand.

"Good father!" Dabao ran out contentedly.

Xiaobao glanced at Cheng Huai, then obediently looked at Jiang Miao, "Mother is also good~"

Jiang Miao couldn't help laughing: "Go outside and play, don't sit on the ground."

Xiao Zai Zai nodded seriously, and ran out with short legs.

Going outside to get a low stool, Cheng Huai pulled Jiang Miao to sit down, and picked out a sweet pastry for Jiang Miao.

"Sir, I'm not hungry." Jiang Miao patted the ashes on his sleeves, and folded the corners to tighten them.

Cheng Huai broke the two halves and gave them to her, "Auntie Zhang, what's the matter?"

"She said she would lend us money." Jiang Miao took a bite of the pastry and continued, "Ma'am is really kind to us."

The hardest thing to borrow these days is money.

Cheng Huai wiped the crumbs from the corner of her mouth with his hand, "When the family was in trouble, she often came to help."

Aunt Zhang is sometimes talkative and poisonous, but she has a kind heart.

"If anyone can help in the future, let's help more." Jiang Miao ate half of the pastry, and passed the rest to Cheng Huai.

Cheng Huai lowered his head, bit it, and ate it sullenly.

After finishing the cakes, Jiang Miao and Cheng Huai took Dabao and Xiaobao to play with Niu Niu. Because of the rattle, the two children were very excited, like two proud big roosters running beside Niu Niu.

Zhang's house and Niu's house were not far away, and from a distance, old man Zhang could be seen sitting on the left side of the threshold with his back to Aunt Zhang, complaining in his mouth.

Aunt Zhang sat on the right side of the threshold eating melon seeds, pretending she didn't hear, she looked around to see what was new.

No fights or quarrels, just ignoring each other.

Jiang Miao suddenly laughed, like two stubborn donkeys, made for each other.

The evening was cool, Cheng Huai grabbed Jiang Miao's hand and held it in his arms, "Just say it when it's cold, let's go back."

"It's not cold, the baby hasn't been playing for long." Jiang Miao looked at him with bent eyes, grabbed his hand and scratched it.

When I touched the end of the thread, I looked down. I don't know when the thread on the sleeve was untied. The sleeve was still good when I was making pastries.

Cheng Huai also noticed, pursed his lips and retracted his hands, "I'll sew it myself later."

"My husband sews by himself?" Jiang Miao grabbed his hand and said with a smile, "I'm afraid I will continue to sew just after sewing."

Cheng Huai looked at her quietly, feeling that he was in the wrong, so he had nothing to refute.

"Master, go home and pull my ears, and I'll sew them for you." Jiang Miao leaned over and said in a low voice. There are still people around now, and her family should not lose face.

Cheng Huai's eyes shone slightly, and he clenched her hand behind his back, "I'll grab it for you."

The weather is not cold, and his ears are not frozen anymore, so Jiang Miao can pick whatever he wants.
