She was replaced by a husband, married the future tyrant and farmed to fight back

Chapter 84: Qin Yiran took the initiative today. What does he want to do?

After lunch, the Liu family was about to go back.

Qin Yiran called Chen Baian over, brought two large jars of the best rice wine and put them in the car.

He also instructed Qin Xiuzhu to pack two boxes of cakes and take them back to the Liu family.

Qin Xiuzhu didn't want to pretend, she pouted her mouth, and was so handsome that she could tie up a cow.

But seeing Qin Yiran's sullen face, Qin Xiuzhu dared not disobey and filled the cakes obediently, making Liu Zhuer grin with joy.

Liu Yingyue was surprised that Qin Yiran was so polite to the Liu family.

Was it her efforts that changed Qin Yiran's mind?

Liu Huaiyue pulled Madam Liu's sleeve and wanted to go home with her.

How could Madam Liu agree?

When Liu Huaiyue is at home, she doesn't hold anything in her hands or carry anything on her shoulders.

After scolding her a few words, she would run to the second room and always cheat her for money.

Now I can stay in the shop and learn how to do things, which saves me a lot of trouble.

"Stay still, if you dare to run back, I'll break your legs!" Madam Liu said with a sullen face.

After the Liu family left, Liu Huaiyue got angry and sat there like a stone.

Qin Xiuzhu called her several times, but she ignored him.

"Huaiyue!!" Liu Yingyue would not indulge her, "You are free anyway, why not learn how to make cakes from Xiuzhu."

"Why should I learn?" Liu Huaiyue rolled her eyes.

"You work as a handyman in the shop and only have a few cents in pocket money a day. If you learn how to make cakes, all the income will be yours." Liu Yingyue said temptingly.

Liu Huaiyue blinked and said, that’s true.

"However, if you ask someone for help, you have to pay a small labor fee. For example, if Xiuzhu asked Chen Baian for help, she had to pay Chen Baian."

"I won't hire anyone, I'll do it myself." Liu Huaiyue said while counting on her fingers.

"You have to prepare the flour and fillings yourself."

"How can I afford it? Liu Yingyue, you are deliberately making things difficult for me!" Liu Huaiyue waved her hands, not wanting to do it anymore.

"I'll give you a thousand coins. Is that enough?" Liu Yingyue took out a purse from her body and gave it to her. "Here are a thousand coins. Pay me back at the end of the month when you make money."

"Not at the end of the month, it's too rushed. Next month... no, I'll return it to you at the end of the month after next." Liu Huaiyue said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, return it to me at the end of the next month." Liu Yingyue agreed.

This girl is lazy and has a bad temper. If she is not given something to do, she will sooner or later cause trouble for the Liu family and bring trouble to the Qin family.

Qin Yiran sat in the shop, quietly watching Liu Yingyue disciplining Liu Huaiyue. His eyes were confused, but he said nothing.

-

Closed in the evening.

Qin Xiuzhu counted the income. "I made 800 pancakes yesterday, and 240 in the afternoon. The gross profit is... 1,883 coins!"

"After deducting the cost, I made at least 1,500 coins." Liu Yingyue said with a smile.

"So many!" Chen Baian clapped his hands in praise.

But Qin Xiuzhu sighed, "How can it be more? At two cents a cake, I could have earned 2,080 cents, but now my income is nearly 200 cents less."

"Oh, of course we make less money because we give away the cakes," said Chen Baian.

"Yeah, I gave away too many. Alas." Qin Xiuzhu sighed.

"Xiuzhu, you can't calculate it that way. If there weren't any free gifts, how could today's opening business be so good? If we build our reputation today, we will have returning customers tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and those who haven't bought yet will come back to buy in the future. When doing business, you can't just look at small profits, you have to look at the overall picture and the long-term. Retail sales are business, and small profits but quick turnover is also business." Liu Yingyue said.

"Ah, Madam Ying is right. When the owner of the beef shop goes to buy beef, there are two different prices for beef below ten kilograms and beef above ten kilograms. If you buy one hundred kilograms, it will be even cheaper." Chen Baian said.

"Small profits but quick turnover, sell out early and get the money back early. If the goods are kept in your hands for a long time and cannot be converted into cash, you will lose money if you cannot sell them. Every businessman likes to sell the goods quickly." Liu Yingyue said.

Qin Xiuzhu couldn't figure it out, but she thought it would be better to sell it quickly because she might lose money. While everyone was calculating their income, Liu Huaiyue's eyes lit up when she heard it.

She also wanted to earn 1,800 wen a day.

—

We all cooked dinner together.

After dinner, everyone got busy again.

Qin Xiuzhu was going to make cakes for tomorrow, and Liu Huaiyue followed her to learn.

We were busy until the lights were turned on and then we stopped working.

Qin Xiuzhu was so tired that she couldn't even lift her arms. Chen Baian rubbed them for her quietly out of concern, then went home carrying the lantern.

In order to take care of the tired Qin Xiuzhu, Liu Yingyue took Liu Huaiyue to boil bath water.

Liu Huaiyue curled her lips and didn't want to move, "Why not call Xiuzhu?"

Liu Yingyue looked at her.

This damn girl, she is not humble when eating and always pushes herself away when doing things.

"This shop was paid for by the Qin family. I'm just managing it on their behalf. The Qin family doesn't want you to stay here, so where are you going to sell the cakes you make? If you want to take advantage of others, you have to pay something. Don't always think of taking advantage without making any contribution yourself!" Liu Yingyue twisted her ear and warned her.

"It hurts, it hurts, can't I just burn it? Really!" Liu Huaiyue covered her ears and ran to the stove to burn the fire obediently.

Qin Yiran walked to the kitchen door with a cane and saw Liu Yingyue disciplining her sister again.

He recalled that in the past, Liu Yingyue was not only not good at disciplining her, but was even a little afraid of her younger sister.

What on earth happened to make such a cowardly person become so tough?

Qin Yiran looked puzzled.
-
After everyone took a bath, they went back to their rooms.

Qin Xiuzhu and Liu Huaiyue were both tired. They went upstairs, and without saying anything to each other, they closed the door, blew out the lights, and went to bed.

Liu Yingyue made the bed, went to the first floor and asked Qin Yiran, "Let's go upstairs?"

Qin Yiran was looking at the account book made by Qin Xiuzhu.

Qin Xiuzhu didn't recognize many words and her handwriting was not good. The few words were crookedly written on the account book, making it difficult for Qin Yiran to recognize them clearly.

Qin Yiran looked up. The woman's cheek, illuminated by the candlelight in her hand, looked as charming as a crabapple flower.

His throat suddenly became dry, and he said hoarsely, "Yeah."

He threw away the account book, took his crutches and stood up.

"I'll help you." Liu Yingyue took two quick steps forward and supported him.

Qin Yiran's big hands tightly grasped Liu Yingyue's slender waist, "Liu Yingyue, Liu Yingyue——"

He whispered, looking at her with sparkling eyes.

Liu Yingyue sensed the danger but still pretended to be calm. "It's windy outside. It's warm upstairs. Let's go."

"Okay." Qin Yiran said.

Went upstairs and closed the door.

Liu Yingyue thought that the man was going to pounce on her again, but he let go of her, walked quietly to the bed, took off his outer clothes and shoes, and got on the bed.

Liu Yingyue was stunned, "..."

Why is he so proactive today?
What is this about?

She was the one who helped the person in, and she said yesterday that she could go to bed, so how could she chase him away?

Liu Yingyue checked the door bolt and made sure it was locked firmly before she walked towards the bed nervously.

Seeing that she was cautious and uneasy, Qin Yiran slightly curled his lower lip.

"You want to sleep outside? Then I'll sleep inside." Liu Yingyue took off her shoes and outer clothes, thought for a while, and then put down the tent.
