The journey of giving birth to a son

Chapter 37 The new cook is called Hammer
Shen Yunniang stood in the corner, pinching the corner of her clothes again and again. Shen Yunniang kept her composure. But the butler said that he would be rewarded with twenty taels of silver when the dishes were ready.

Twenty taels of silver was Shen Yuniang's salary for more than half a year. Shen Yuniang hesitated. She thought about her lovely son and daughter and how her daughter had been working hard for the family. Shen Yuniang walked to the housekeeper and said that she could cook seafood.

In the end, Shen Yunniang received a reward of twenty taels of silver. She thought this was just a small episode and it was over. Unexpectedly, she was ostracized by the people in the kitchen, who made sarcastic remarks and made trouble for her at every turn.

Shen Yunniang had been swallowing her anger. She really couldn't hold on anymore today because she had to wash vegetables. She just bought a basin of clean water and when she turned around, a fat cook threw a dirty rag in.

The fat cook looked at Shen Yunniang provocatively, and Shen Yunniang asked the housekeeper to resign, and the housekeeper agreed.

Jiang Shiyi knew that Shen Yunniang felt aggrieved, so he brought the food for her to eat. After Shen Yunniang finished eating, she felt that her mood was much better. Jiang Shiyi persuaded her again, "Mom, why do I open this small restaurant? It's because I think of you. Dad and I are getting older, and it’s no longer easy for us to run around outside. If we work together as a family and become one, we will definitely have a good life."

Shen Yunniang nodded and decided to come back to help her daughter.

Jiang Shiyi was very happy. After all, there were too many things to do in the store in a day, including purchasing, cooking, cleaning, settling accounts... Although Jiang Kejian helped, she was still too busy.

"Can you make money like this?" Shen Yunniang looked at the meat and ribs and asked, "Wouldn't it be a loss if you do this every day?"

Jiang Shiyi pointed to the people queuing outside and said, "These main dishes are rationed every day, and some dishes are served a little longer apart. Anyway, there are so many varieties, and the customers won't say anything, even if each of us Even if a person earns a penny, it is not a small amount."

When Jiang Shiyi said this, Shen Yunniang stopped talking. With the addition of Shen Yunniang, Jiang Shiyi didn't feel relaxed because there were more and more customers, and both of them couldn't cook enough.

Looking for a chef is imminent.

In the afternoon, Manager Chen helped find a cook named Zhao Tiechui and said he would come for a trial tomorrow.

Jiang Shiyi laughed when he heard the name. The next day, Zhao Tiechui came indeed. He was not the burly man Jiang Shiyi had imagined, but he was quite tall and strong.

Zhao Tiechui said with a smile, "I was in poor health when I was young. My father was a blacksmith, so he gave me such a name. He said it was a cheap name and would make a living."

Jiang Shiyi and Shen Yunniang smiled and bent down, while Zhao Tiechui scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

Zhao Tiechui's name is a bit rustic, but he is a good cook. After all, a man is very strong. He stood at the stove and danced with iron pots and spoons. The dishes he made tasted pretty good. Jiang Shiyi immediately decided Zhao Tiechui stayed.

Zhao Tiechui also made his own request. He came from another county and had no place to live. He hoped to provide him with a place to live.

Jiang Shiyi agreed. There were still a few vacant rooms in the backyard. Zhao Tiechui stayed there and happened to take a look at the shop.

After having the chef Zhao Tiechui, the business in the store became even more prosperous, so Jiang Shiyi was thinking about hiring someone to wash the dishes.

That night, Jiang Shiyi and Jiang Kejian were going home together with lanterns. When they came to a corner, they heard the sounds of beatings and scoldings, "You are a time-traveler and a beggar, I will beat you to death, beat you to death... …”

By the light of the lantern, Jiang Shiyi took a closer look and it turned out to be the crescent moon that had delivered mooncakes to him last year.

The weather in early spring was still a bit cold. Yue Ya was wearing a single coat and bare feet. She was beaten and scolded by her mother and could only use her arms like reed sticks to protect her head.

Jiang Shiyi also knew something about Yue Ya. Yue Ya's father was a drunkard and a gambler. When he got home, he would take it out on Yue Ya's mother. Yue Ya's mother was also a lazy woman who was unwilling to go out to do things. She would beat Yue Ya when she was wronged. This was someone else's business and Jiang Shiyi had nothing to do with it, so he walked away.

Early the next morning, Jiang Shiyi walked into the store, and Yue Ya sat alone at the door.

Did she just sit like this all night? The weather was still so cold. Jiang Shiyi sighed. There are no such parents in the world.

Jiang Shiyi walked forward, and Yue Ya followed her, standing at the door of the store, looking at her eagerly.

During breakfast, Shen Yunniang couldn't bear it, so she called Yue Ya in and gave her a bowl of porridge and two white steamed buns. Yue Ya looked very hungry and wolfed down the food.

After finishing the meal, Yue Ya still refused to leave, "Sister, can I go to work in your shop? Please accept me, sister! Please..."

Jiang Shiyi was a little hesitant. Although Yue Ya was fifteen years old, she looked very thin, only twelve or thirteen years old. In the new society, this was still child labor. How could she hire child labor.

"Sister, I beg you." Yueya cried again.

There are so many people suffering in this world, can I handle it on my own?
Jiang Shiyi said, "If you want to work in my shop, my shop has my rules. If you come to work in my shop, you can live in the shop. You are not allowed to go home. Can you do that?"

Jiang Shiyi didn't want to have anything to do with Yue Ya's father and mother.

Crescent Moon nodded.

Yue Ya looks thin, but she is very capable. She washes the dishes cleanly, and Yue Ya still has a bright eye. She doesn't let herself be idle. She cleans the table, mops the floor, does everything, and goes to see who among them is busy. He is helpful to anyone and has a sweet mouth, and he quickly wins everyone's love.

Yue Ya cherishes her job very much. Sister Shi Yi's family is very kind to her. Yue Ya eats white steamed buns and sesame cakes every day, and can eat meat from time to time, which is much better than at home.

When eating that day, Jiang Shiyi saw how thin Yue Ya was, so he gave her a chicken drumstick, but Yue Ya hid the drumstick when no one saw her.

"Why don't you eat it?" Shen Yunniang also felt sorry for Yue Ya, "You should eat the chicken legs!"

Yue Ya wanted to take the chicken legs back to his brother to eat. Jiang Shiyi saw Yue Ya’s mother standing at the corner looking for something to eat for Yue Ya several times. Yue Ya didn’t dare to take anything from the store, so she saved her portion for her mother. Bring back.

Zhao Tiechui also said, "Don't feel bad for your brother. Look at how strong your brother is, and look at how thin you have become."

"My mother told me to take care of my brother, saying that I am a girl and girls cannot eat meat."

Jiang Shiyi made a serious face, "You are an employee of the store, you know? Everything in the store belongs to the store, including the meal you eat. This is a staff meal and cannot be taken away."

Yue Ya was shocked. It turned out that the rice in the store could not be taken away, so Yue Ya ate the chicken legs. The chicken legs were so delicious. Yue Ya had not eaten chicken legs many times in her whole life.
