In the evening, it was the county magistrate who brought Lord Jingmo to Songjiazhuang, saying that he was looking for a sister-in-law who made roasted seeds and nuts.Yiren bought melon seeds, peanuts and golden chestnuts at home, and made an agreement with Qiu Shi to buy them from him every month, so Song Shan naturally knew that it was Yiren who made the roasted seeds and nuts.

He didn't pay much attention to this matter at first, thinking about what kind of business a woman is doing!Besides, is roasted seeds and nuts easy to cook?If it's easy to do, it won't be her turn to earn the money. There are melon seeds and golden chestnuts all over the mountains and plains!

It wasn't until the county magistrate brought this unknown Mr. Jingmo that he had to pay attention.

The county magistrate, but I have been the village magistrate for half my life and I have never seen him a few times!Yi Ren can definitely eat this food!Song Shan couldn't help feeling excited.

In another blink of an eye, seeing his wife Qiu Shi who was accompanying Yi Ren, he felt that it was because of the relationship between Qiu Shi and Yi Ren that their family got the job of collecting roasted seeds and nuts, otherwise Yi Ren would make everyone in the village unable to do it!The appearance of her parents is indeed not reliable, but Song Ting and Li's couple who have a good relationship with Yiren have always taken good care of Yiren, and Yiren didn't even look for them!
For a while, he paid more attention to himself as the second wife, and no longer neglected and bored as before.

"Sister-in-law, the master of my family has tasted your fried golden chestnuts, and he is full of praise. He wants five hundred catties. We are leaving tomorrow afternoon. Can my sister-in-law make it?"

Everyone looked at Yi Ren expectantly.

Yi Xin was overjoyed: Five hundred catties, according to the price given to Desheng Restaurant, seven cents per catty, that's three, two and five cents!One step closer to repairing the house!
For a moment, Yi Ren seemed to have seen the white money!
But he didn't show it on his face, instead he frowned and said softly: "Master Jingmo, I have three points to explain to you. One is that fried golden chestnuts taste better when they are warmed up. It is also okay when they are cold, but they cannot be stored for a long time. It’s the crescent moon now, and it can be left for three days at most, and you want five hundred catties, which may be consumed within three days?”

"Although the little sister-in-law is a businessman, she doesn't seek selfishness, so she deserves a gift from Jingmo!" Jingmo bowed and cupped his hands after saying that, respecting this widowed woman who took care of her child alone. "But my family has a large population, five hundred catties is really nothing, it is enough to consume in one day."

"Then I'm relieved!" After receiving the gift, Yi Ren also felt that Jing Mo was not a stickler for the rules, unlike many men in this era who discriminate against women, and he was able to chat quite well, and continued with a smile: "The second point, Even now that it is late at night, I only have [-] catties of golden chestnuts in my house, and I need stone honey for frying, so there is not enough at home..."

This is indeed a very difficult thing to do. At this time, there is already a curfew, and the rice, flour, grain and oil shops in the town and the county must be closed. It is useless for you to be the king of heaven.

Jing Mo looked at the man with the goatee, and the man said respectfully: "The county office has stone honey in stock, but this golden chestnut..." The man frowned in embarrassment.

Under Qiu's constant hints, Song Shan said tentatively: "My lords, because Yiren and my wife discussed the acquisition of golden chestnuts a few days ago, my family has two hundred catties of golden chestnuts in stock." Song Shan was afraid of that. Master Jingmo misunderstood that he was partnering with Yi Ren to deceive him, so he explained the hoarding of golden chestnuts first.

"That's three hundred catties less!" Goat Hu County Cheng frowned.

Qiu Shi stretched out her hand again and tugged at Song Shan's clothes corner, but Song Shan was confused and didn't know why.I was also worried that the magistrate and that adult would see me being dragged by the hem of my clothes in public, what kind of words would that sound like!Then his face flushed and he pulled out the corner of his clothes vigorously.

Qiu Shi anxiously stretched out her hand to grab it again, and Song Shan put it aside...

The two of you came and went for several rounds, Yiren saw it in his eyes and was angry in his heart.She was angry with Qiu's submissiveness, and also angry with Song Shan's honesty and stupidity.

Yi Ren finally asked, "Auntie, what can I do?" She couldn't help giving Qiu a step.

Qiu's flushed face seemed to bleed, and he didn't dare to raise his head, and stammered, "A few days ago, I. I. I talked with the folks. The talk is over. I want to take their golden chestnuts. So. So."

Seeing her "so" for a long time, Yi Ren didn't say anything, and then said, "Uncle and Auntie, are you willing to spend the night to help buy it? The price is negotiable!"

Qiu's kindness, and the favor of the Yiren, would not raise the price again. "No, no, we agreed on the price!"

"Mrs. Village is really thoughtful!" Jing Mo praised with a smile.

The county magistrate with a goatee also stroked his beard and nodded. "Song Village is marrying a good wife!"

Hearing the compliments from the two adults, Song Shan was a little dazed, as if seeing his wife for the first time in these years, he looked her up and down, feeling pity for this much younger lady in his heart.But it was facing Shang Qiu's gaze.The two blushed again.

"Yes, yes, thank you adults for your compliments!" Song Shan said with a blushing smile.

"What about the third thing? Sister-in-law." Jing Mo asked Yi Ren.

"Stir-frying golden chestnuts with sugar is physical work. I'm pregnant, and I only have the strength of one person. I'm afraid I can't finish it!" Yi Ren paused for a while, saw Jing Mo and Goatee frowning, and then continued. "However, my aunt's two natal brothers once helped me with work. If my aunt is willing to work hard, the two younger brothers will definitely be able to do it!"

"Yes! Yes! I'll call right now!" After hearing what Yi Ren said, Qiu's eyes filled with tears. She knew that Yi Ren was here to help her, her natal family.Not to mention the wages for this trip, it is the skill of roasting golden chestnuts in sugar, so how can it be taught to others casually!
"Auntie, slow down, it's late at night, don't disturb the rest of the neighbors!" Yi Ren reminded, although Qiu's personality is weak, but his mind is smart, and he immediately understood what Yi Ren meant, and she was reminding her not to make trouble. Everyone knows.

"Okay, that's all settled. I'll wait for someone to pick it up tomorrow afternoon!" Seeing that the matter was finished, Jing Mo didn't want to delay. "This is twelve taels, sister-in-law keep it!"

"This...I don't have money to look for you, why don't you bring the right amount of money over here tomorrow?" Now the Yiren was in a state of embarrassment, and his entire net worth was not enough to give him change!
"The rest is for silver rewards. It's not easy for my sister-in-law." Jing Mo waved his hand, and the ten tael silver ticket fell into Yi Ren's hands.

Song Shan and his wife sent a few people away, thinking in their hearts, Yi Ren is now well-developed, and even the county magistrate is respectful, what kind of status is that!Even nobles love her fried golden chestnuts!Thinking of the ten taels of silver that the man casually threw down, this is not developed, what is it!
Song Shan held Qiu's hand for the first time, walked all the way, and said halfway: "Yiren, this girl's craftsmanship is really amazing, not to mention the new designs of the things she made, and she won the eyes of the nobles. From now on, you can get Hang out with her more!"

"That's natural! Yiren thinks of me in everything!" Qiu smiled sweetly and proudly.

Song Shan looked at his lovely wife who was 20 years younger than him, and remembered that in the past, his sons and daughters bullied her, and his mother exploited her, but he turned a blind eye to it, and he really regretted it.She is still so young, married to an old man, and her eldest son is a few years older than her, and she doesn't know how long she will live.She is still so smart, although she has a soft personality, she can understand everything, even clearer than him, who has been in the village for many years.

Thinking of this, I felt more and more unbearable, secretly vowed to treat Qiu Shi better in the future, and shook Qiu Shi's hand vigorously.Qiu Shi didn't notice it at all, but felt that Song Shan loved her more today than in the past.
