The little lucky wife of a peasant family, the chief minister pinches her waist and dotes on her

"Mom, please prepare more water next time." Zhao Di quickly warned.

Mrs. Guan grunted, Zhaodi gave her a pot of water, and went to the front to help.

Old man Guan came to the dining room and saw that the old woman had not eaten. He was waiting there and asked curiously: "Old woman, why don't you eat?"

"I'm not hungry yet, I'm just a little thirsty. I just drank some water and I'll wait for Zhaodi and the others to eat together."

"Old man, I think these days are getting more promising." Mrs. Guan said happily.

Old man Guan also nodded with a smile and said, "I don't know if Xingsheng is selling well."

"Hahaha, do you think you win if you come back first?"

Old man Guan looked at the old woman in confusion, and she said cheerfully: "Our Xingsheng has sold out for the second round, and the shop in front has also sold out for the second round."

“Our braised food is delicious and very popular.”

"It's really good, it's really good. I didn't expect that Xingsheng would sell the second round. He doesn't like to talk much on weekdays, but I didn't expect that he is still a good seller."

Old man Guan laughed.

Mrs. Guan also smiled, and just as she was talking, Zhao Di and Guan Xingping came over.

"Mom and Dad, what are you talking about? You are so happy." Guan Xingping wiped his hands and Zhaodi went to serve the rice.

Old man Guan repeated what he just said, and Guan Xingping was also very happy.

"After dinner, let's see how much we earned today. I think apart from the cost, I should have earned two taels of silver today."

Guan Xingping's face was full of joy. Old man Guan was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Is it true or not?"

"I don't know. I'll find out later when my brother comes back." Guan Xingping smiled mysteriously.

Old man Guan and Mrs. Guan began to stretch their necks, waiting for Guan Xingsheng to come back.

They had eaten, but Guan Xingsheng still hadn't come back.

A few people first calculated the accounts of the shop and Old Man Guan. As soon as they finished the calculation, Guan Xingsheng came back with the cart.

Mrs. Guan opened the back door for him, and Guan Xingsheng pushed the car in.

"Are you tired?" Mrs. Guan wiped his sweat, and Guan Xingsheng said with a smile, "You're not tired, you've made money."

"Your brother and sister-in-law are counting today's income. Go and send your share over, and I'll wash the dishes."

Guan Xingsheng sighed, put the car away, and walked towards the house.

"Back." Guan Xingping greeted Guan Xingsheng with a smile.

Guan Xingsheng took off his purse and divided it into several purses.

Old man Guan asked curiously: "Son, why did you pack so many pieces?"

"When we push the cart outside, we will always encounter some rogues. This way, we won't be robbed all at once."

Listening to Guan Xingsheng's words, Old Man Guan also nodded quickly: "Yes, you are absolutely right. Although we don't want this to happen, it is still necessary to take precautions before they happen."

"I'll do the same thing tomorrow, and I can hide some in the car."

Guan Xingsheng nodded, and Guan Xingping also told the two of them to be careful when selling goods outside and try not to go to too remote villages.

It's safe to take the official route.

The two responded quickly, and Guan Xingping began to count the money.

After counting the last bronze medal, Guan Xingping said excitedly: "Excluding the money spent on buying meat and ingredients today, our family earned a full two to seven hundred cash today."

"So much!" Old Man Guan was pleasantly surprised. He had to know that even if his family took out favors in the previous month, they would only spend three to four hundred yuan at most.

"Okay, okay." The Guan family members all had smiles on their faces.

After putting the money away, they went separately, ordered the ingredients, and then went to Li's house.

Ning Qiyue will teach them how to brine salted duck and salted goose today.

This is a new braised food. Ning Qiyue has prepared the duck and goose and is waiting.

"You can keep the down of these ducks and geese. Remember, when making cooked food, you can't ask for meat from chickens, ducks and geese that have died of illness."

Ning Qiyue warned, Zhao Di and Guan Xingping nodded quickly.

"Don't worry, cousin, we will definitely remember your words. We will not use sick poultry or meat."

"Well, the duck and goose down can be used to make other things. Keep them all for me. I'll pay you." Ning Qiyue said to the two of them.

Zhao Di quickly said: "How can it be possible? This fluff can do anything. Even if it can really do anything, it's because of your clever mind, cousin."

"We'll keep this fluff for you from now on."

Ning Qiyue saw this and said nothing more. He thanked them and started teaching them how to make salted duck and salted goose.

"These goose wings can be cut off and sold individually. If a goose is too big, it can be sold in several parts. No one wants the neck."

"But we can sell it in disguised form, or sell it as a bundle. For example, if this customer asks for so much, then we can sell it with a neck or a head."

Listening to Ning Qiyue's words, the couple nodded in realization.

"Eggs can also be braised. Braised eggs and tea eggs are both good choices." Ning Qiyue taught them how to braise eggs.

One day has passed.

As soon as Zhao and his wife were sent away, Li Zhiyan came back from school, and Mr. Ke also followed.

"Sister-in-law, I'm here to eat. Is my Xuerou at your house?" Mr. Ke greeted with a smile and handed the things in his hand to Biyun.

Ning Qiyue smiled and said: "You made a miscalculation today. She went to find Xianghe. She came as soon as she came. Why did she bring something back here?"

"You can't just eat and drink for free! It's not really good stuff, just some ingredients!" Mr. Ke chuckled.

Ning Qiyue nodded and was not polite to him: "We are going to have hot pot tonight, and Xianghe will come over later."

"This is good, I like it." Mr. Ke quickly expressed that he likes hot pot.

Li Zhiyan took him to the yard, while Ning Qiyue took Biyun to the kitchen, leaving two salted ducks and salted geese.

Ning Qiyue put on an apron and started chopping ducks and geese.

The brine is used to make clear soup, and the ordinary goose is put in and cooked together, and the aroma will soon spread.

"Yue'er, what are we going to eat today?" Han walked in with Yan Tao in her arms, sniffing.

"Hey, sister-in-law, why are you back so early today?" Ning Qiyue asked curiously when she saw Han coming in.

"Zhan Yuanhui and the others have already taken action. I'll be back early today."

Ning Qiyue hummed and said while busy: "Sister-in-law, I'm going to Fucheng in a while, and I'll buy some servants back then."

"On the one hand, go to Wenxiangju to help, so you can rest more, and on the other hand, Wenxiangju in Xiao County and Fucheng will open soon. We need to train more of our own people to be in charge."

"I listen to you, you are the head of our Li family." Han said cheerfully.

Ning Qiyue gave Han a helpless look, and Han laughed, handed Yantao to Biyun, and started to help.

"How do you cut this?"

"Cut it into slices and freeze it. Sister-in-law, please be careful, it's a little slippery." Ning Qiyue warned.

Han responded and said it was appropriate.

The two sisters-in-law were busy in the kitchen. It was getting dark, and Qiu Xianghe and his wife and Ke Xuerou also came.

Luxiu was busy working as soon as she entered the kitchen. Ning Qiyue really liked this girl.

There is work in your eyes, no one needs to tell you, just pick it up and do it.

"It's almost done, Xianghe, you guys help carry the dishes to the dining room." Ning Qiyue shouted to Qiu Xianghe and others.

Qiu Xianghe sighed, picked up two plates of food and walked towards the dining room.

Shi Mo followed them with the bottom of the pot. As soon as they were placed, Mrs. Li and the others also closed the shop and came back.

"It smells so good. What are you going to eat tonight?" Mrs. Li sniffed and asked. "Hot pot." Everyone said in unison.

Mrs. Li exclaimed: "Hot pot is good, hot pot is good, I like it."

"Yue'er, today I saw your eldest sister." Mrs. Li said to Ning Qiyue after washing her hands and sitting down.

Ning Qiyue waited for her to continue, and Mrs. Li continued: "She is so skinny, with a bulging belly, and wounds on her face and hands. How can she be such a good concubine for such a wealthy family?"

"It has nothing to do with me, it's all her own choice." Ning Qiyue said calmly.

Zhao Julan agreed: "That's how it should be. That little girl is very bad. She always bullied my Yue'er when she was a child."

"She deserves the life she's living now."

"Okay, I can't stop your mouth with delicious food. Since it's other people's business, we don't have to meddle in it."

Ning Binggen was afraid that his daughter would think of bad things, so he quickly interrupted.

Zhao Julan also thought of this and quickly changed the topic.

"It seems that Zhaodi's business is good. I've ordered a lot of vegetarian chicken and dried tofu today."

"Well, I told you in the afternoon that the business is good. I made more than [-] taels. The whole family is willing to endure hardships and work hard, so it's not worth my worry." Ning Qiyue nodded.

"That's great. This family, if we can put our hearts in one place, we'll never leave."

"I'm afraid that it's too delicious and too lazy to take advantage of," Zhao Julan agreed.

Mrs. Li nodded and agreed: "That's why I agreed immediately when Yue'er suggested it. The Guan family is a good family."

"It's a pity that there are still top relatives to deal with." Ning Qiyue said again.

Mrs. Li thought of Guan Xingping's grandmother and was silent for a moment.

"There won't be a big storm." Ning Qiyue gave Mrs. Li a piece of fat cow and said with a smile.

Mrs. Li felt relieved and started eating happily.

……

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and the business of the braised food shop was getting better and better.

Guan Xingsheng and the others are also selling very well, and their reputation has spread. Although the villagers will not buy them every day, they will occasionally buy them for one or two cents to satisfy their cravings.

Guan Xingsheng can make two trips every day and come back empty every time.

On this day, Guan Xingsheng had just sold a car and was about to return to town, but he was seen by an unexpected person.

When the man saw Guan Xingsheng pushing the cart towards the town, he quickly hid aside.

After Guan Xingsheng had gone far away, the man asked the woman who had just bought something with Guan Xingsheng: "Auntie, do you know that person just now?"

"You mean that young man?"

"I know him. His name is Guan Xingsheng. He always comes to sell braised meat near our village recently." The woman followed the man's fingers and replied directly when she saw it was Guan Xingsheng.

After the woman finished speaking, she felt a little strange. She looked at the young man in front of her and asked, "I think you look a bit similar to him. Do you know him?"

"Well, that's my cousin." Guan Xingwei nodded, his eyes full of calculation.

"So he is your cousin. Your braised food is really delicious. Is there any secret recipe?" The woman suddenly asked Guan Xingwei.

Guan Xingwei was a little embarrassed and said: "My family doesn't make braised food. Thank you, aunt. I'll leave first."

With that said, Guan Xingwei chased in the direction where Guan Xingsheng left.

After chasing for a while, we caught up.

He secretly followed Guan Xingsheng. When he was approaching the town, Guan Xingsheng was stopped by a few people dressed as gangsters.

"Boy, hand over your income today. I've been watching you for several days."

"You and the shopkeeper of Braised Meat Shop are the same family, right?"

"We also work as waiters for others. Braised meat shop belongs to the Li family. Wenxiangju belongs to the Li family. Please don't mess around."

As soon as these words came out, those gangsters were undecided.

They heard that the second mistress of the Li family was the sister of the prefect. If it really belonged to the Li family, they would not dare to touch it casually.

"Boy, are you telling the truth?"

Guan Xingsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "Uncle, how dare I lie to you? This braised meat shop really belongs to the Li family."

"The second grandma of the Li family is my sister-in-law's cousin. She is kind-hearted and saw that our family was living in poverty, so she gave us work."

"This money belongs to the Li family. Please forgive me and don't take away my money, otherwise I really can't explain it."

The gangster snorted, but after all he didn't dare to take action.

"If I find out that you lied to me, be careful about your life."

"Get out of here!" He said, leaving a way.

Guan Xingsheng thanked him profusely and pushed the cart to the town.

The gangster had a dark face and said to his subordinates: "Go and find out. If this kid lies to me, I will peel off three layers of his skin tomorrow."

"Yes."

Guan Xingwei hid far away and didn't hear what they said. He only saw those people stopping Guan Xingsheng and then letting him go.

I thought they were going to buy something from Guan Xingsheng, but when it was gone, they were let go.

After those gangsters dispersed, Guan Xingwei chased after them again.

Finally, he saw Guan Xingsheng entering the back door of a courtyard, and Guan Xingwei ran to the front of the braised food shop.

I saw that the shop was surrounded by people on several floors, all of whom were waiting to buy braised food.

His eyes were full of greed. No wonder the uncle and his family haven't been home recently. They have settled in the town for a long time.

Huh, we can't let them enjoy it like this.

Guan Xingwei ran to the city gate, found a donkey cart, and headed home.

As soon as the second car came out of Guan Xingsheng's side, Guan Xingwei, Mrs. Xu, Aunt Guan, and Uncle Guan arrived in front of the shop.

Seeing so many people surrounding the shop and the bustling business scene, Mrs. Xu's eyes almost bulged.

There were so many people that they couldn't even squeeze in for a while.

Smelling the fragrant smell of braised meat, Mrs. Xu drooled a lot.

Finally, there were fewer people. Mrs. Xu squeezed past, Zhao Di smiled and said without raising her head: "What do you want, sir?"

"Give me some of these to try!" As soon as Mrs. Xu said these words, Zhao Di immediately raised her head.

Seeing that it was Mrs. Xu, the smile on her face faded a little, but she still did as she was told.

Some of each item was cut and weighed, and Guan Xingping packed it in oil paper.

"The total is 79 coins." Zhao Di said with a smile.

Mrs. Xu opened her eyes wide and glared at Zhao Di: "I am your nurse, and you still want to collect money from me?"

"Miscellaneous, you are my husband-in-law's grandma, but this shop does not belong to our family. We are the ones looking after the shop, so we naturally have to collect money and put it into the account."

"Otherwise, how can I explain it to my master?"

An old customer next to him also said: "That's right, even if it's your own meat, you still have to pay for weighing so much meat. Otherwise, how can the account be correct?"

"None of your business!" Mrs. Xu glared at the customer.

The old customer was also a tough guy. When he heard this, he immediately became unhappy: "This is the last pot of braised food. Of course it's none of my business. If you want some of everything, there won't be much left. "

"If you can't pay, get over here."

"Shopkeeper, there are 79 coins in total, right? If she doesn't want it, give it to me!" With that, he took out the money and handed it over.
