The lucky wife of a peasant is not easy to mess with, so she can earn her life by marrying her husba

Chapter 10
After coming out of the village chief's house, Xichun felt reassured. At least for now, the county magistrate had just arrived and the squires were suppressing him, so he didn't dare to act too recklessly.

Xichun was washing vegetables when Aunt Zhang came over. She originally expected to wait two days to deliver eggs to Xichun, but she didn't know that the bowl of vegetables she sent contained a lot of meat.

"Xichun, are you washing vegetables?" Aunt Zhang looked at the vegetables she placed in the yard and said curiously.

"Yes, Aunt Zhang, I'm preparing things to sell tomorrow. Come and sit down. Why are you here at this time?" It's already dark now, and people rarely visit at this time.

"The chickens at home have laid eggs. I was thinking about giving you two to replenish your body. Why did you give so much meat today? When my second boy found out, I was scared."

"Haha, those are the leftovers from what I sold today, but I cooked them after I got home. I bought all these meats a day in advance. Fortunately, the weather is cold, so there will be no problem."

"That's meat too. All year round in our family, only those celebrating the New Year can eat meat. So your bowl of meat and vegetables was eaten by the whole family, but my second boy licked the bowl clean. You kid is so kind-hearted."

"Haha, as long as you like it, I'm worried that everyone won't be able to taste the taste."

"No way, I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking. I've never heard of it before. Happy spring. If you have this skill, you will definitely make a lot of money in the future." Aunt Zhang said as she started washing dishes with her.

"I don't have much money yet. I just want to support my family. I'm alone now. But if my mother doesn't want to stay at Ma's house in the future, at least she will have someone to rely on when she comes back."

She let it go first, but based on her understanding of Wang's character, she was afraid that she would not come back. Moreover, during this period, maybe the Ma family said something to her, and she only quietly came over to see her once. Just left.

"Your mother, hey, let's not talk about it. You girl is really smart and courageous. You actually dare to go to the town to sell things alone. If it were me, that is, buying and selling things at the market, really. If you do business, you will definitely not be successful."

"Speaking of this, I thought of what someone said today. You will have to pay a stall fee of three cents to sell things at the market next month. Aunt Zhang, if you think it is too expensive, you can just bring the things to me. Anyway, I paid the stall fee. , sell it directly there, or you can sell me the eggs and vegetables you have at home and I will use them at the stall, and you don’t have to pay extra stall fees.”

"Really, then this is so daring. Why are they charging stall fees? We don't go there every day. Hey, it's true."

"Yeah, who knows, if you think about it, just come to me directly."

"It's okay. As long as you need it, I can sell it directly to you. I can save a lot of trouble." Aunt Zhang agreed immediately. She would sell to anyone anyway, and Xichun would not deliberately cheat her.

Aunt Zhang didn't go home until she and Xichun finished washing the dishes. No matter how hard Xichun tried to persuade her, she said they would finish the work together.

For half a month, Xichun would go out early and return home before dusk in the afternoon. This road was not the main road before, so for safety reasons, she would never go home after dark, and she would always take it with her. Bring your own kitchen knives and wooden sticks in case special circumstances arise.

Business has been good recently. Over time, she has regular diners. There are many residents in Taohua Town, and the daily flow of people is quite considerable. So in the past half month, her business has been getting better and better, and she has been busy. too busy.

Especially in winter, when the north wind is howling and the cold wind makes people shiver, drinking a bowl of spicy soup will really warm your bones.Fortunately, they are located in the south. No matter how cold the weather is, there are only a few snowy days. At other times, the drought-tolerant vegetables in the field are still growing against the wind.

Xichun went home every day and had to make earthenware and build a kang by herself. Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang would come to help from time to time, and Aunt Liu would also come over and talk while working, so time passed faster.

The kang is built and can be put into use after drying, and those side dishes can grow.

"Aunt Zhang, you are here, sit down quickly, sit down quickly." Xichun was washing vegetables again. The weather was too cold, so she slowly boiled water to wash vegetables, otherwise her fingers would definitely get frostbite.

"Xichun, what do you want from me?" Aunt Zhang didn't know what Xichun wanted from her this time.

"Aunt Zhang, you also know that I have been busy with business recently. Now I am a little too busy alone, so I want to ask you if you have time. I would like to ask you to help me with my work. Don't worry, The wages are paid, and the town hires people to work, which costs eight cents a day, so I will pay you according to this price, and see if you can spare the time?"

Xichun also told her the matter straight to the point. She has been getting busier and busier recently, and business is good. She has already bought another small stove to scald vegetables with water for those who can't eat spicy food.

"Xichun, is what you said true? Are you just teasing me?" Aunt Zhang was a little surprised, did she really get her turn for this good thing?

Her men went to the town to find work, and they stayed in an alley with a bunch of farmers every day. If there was any work, they would be called. They said that if they found work, the wages could reach fifteen cents a day. But there are three days of fishing and two days of drying nets. There is no precise number. Sometimes, it only takes seven or eight days a month to find work.

Thinking about her eldest son, he could only work as a small laborer with his father, earning at most ten cents a day. There were too many people looking for work, especially in this cold weather.

"Of course it's true. Is it possible that I can still coax my aunt?" Seeing her like this, Xichun knew that she was too pleasantly surprised.

"Of course I have time. The children at home are old and they are not baby babies. They can make food at home. If you are willing to ask me to work, then I will definitely do it well." After Aunt Zhang confirmed, she immediately expressed her position .

"That's good. Auntie, you can come and learn from me for a few days tomorrow. The wages will be calculated according to what I told you. We will set up a stall during the day and come back to put away the dishes. I can do the rest by myself."

"Okay, okay, I will study hard with you. Otherwise, if I study for a few days, I won't be paid. I don't know anything, so how can I be embarrassed to get paid?"

"How can this be done? You are wasting your own time by studying. The money has been agreed upon. Auntie, why don't you go back and rest first? I leave the house a bit early every morning."

"It's okay. You and I will wash these dishes first and then go back." Thinking that she would start making money next, she couldn't help but feel happy and wanted to go home immediately to share the good news.
