Yipin Tianxia

Chapter 156 Closed

When Ouyang Kang found him, he saw his family's sister Mu in the appointed teahouse, holding a small face in a daze.The rims of his eyes were reddish, with a strong sense of grievance, which made him feel very distressed.What's going on here?

"Why just sit in the lobby? Don't go upstairs to ask for a private room to be warm."

After finishing speaking, Nian Fu came back to his senses suddenly, looked at him again, and replied sullenly, "It's not very cold."

"Why do you look unhappy?"

"fine."

"He said it's okay, obviously there is something to do." Ouyang Kang was also cold and tired after running around all morning, so he asked the waiter to serve two bowls of haggis soup, and saw her drink it warmly in his hand, before asking , "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Nianfu still refused to say, so what is there to say?

Lu Ying is capable and rich, so what's wrong with her buying good things for her mother?If he had money, why would he have to bargain for such a cheap product for Hui Niang?

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Ouyang Kang thought about telling her good news.

"I just went to my husband's place. Guess what? I heard that we are going to send New Year's gifts back to my hometown in the countryside. Uncle Du found some good things for me. There are clothes, cloth, tea and tonics, all of which were rewarded by the former emperor. Many of them were useless, so they saved them all, and this time they all gave them to us, but they saved a lot of money!"

But Nianfu was still not very interested, "No matter how good it is, it's someone else's property, and you didn't earn it yourself, so what's the point of holding it?"

Ouyang Kang's face turned red all of a sudden, he was so embarrassed that he couldn't even raise his head.

Nianfu sees him like this.He also regretted his slip of the tongue, "I didn't mean to say that about you..."

"No, I know, I'm useless. You still have the ability to make money, but I can't do anything about it."

Nianfu suddenly didn't want to pretend any more, and muttered with slumped shoulders, "How can I have any skills? I even have to buy a discounted scarf. I'm afraid the servants in his family will dress better than mine!"

Is she stimulated?Ouyang Kang raised his eyes again, but said seriously. "But we won't always be like this, will we?"

"Of course!" Nian Fu felt proud, why couldn't she do what others could do?

Grandpa Gao is right, she is still young.As long as he is willing to work hard, will he lose to Lu Ying for the rest of his life?Right now, she can only buy fox scarfs that are not of good quality for Hui Niang, but who can guarantee that one day, she will not be able to buy the best things for Hui Niang?Let her roll in the pile of furs?

A fox scarf made the confused girl finally find the motivation to fight.

It is worth all the effort to make life better for the loved ones.

But the ideal is very plump.The reality is very skinny.

In the evening, Nianfu received another blow.

Mo Yun came back with the remaining half bucket of rice milk.Very ashamed, "I'm sorry, business is really not good today, and it's not sold out."

"What's going on?" Nianfu was not in a hurry, Ouyang Kang was in a hurry first.He doesn't know how to use this money, but he knows that it is very important to Nianfu.

Laixi explained in a hoarse voice beside him. "It's so cold that everyone doesn't want to go to the stalls to eat. Our voices are hoarse. But we only sold two barrels, sister. It's getting colder and colder in the day after tomorrow. Our crystal rolls It's getting harder to sell."

Ouyang Kang opened his mouth and was speechless.Yes, crystal rolls were originally a snack. When it was cold, even he wanted to eat something hot and oily like a bowl of haggis soup when he went out. Who would want to eat rice that cools when it blows against the cold wind? pink?

After hesitating for a while, he tentatively gave a suggestion, "Then, should we rent a shop?"

But Nianfu quickly denied it, "How much is a crystal roll? How much does it cost to shop in January? I can't afford it. Let's close the stall from tomorrow. The more you work, the more you will pay. It's better not to do it. Wait until you figure it out." Let’s talk about something new. By the way, I’ll tell Aunt Xu later and let her close the stall too.”

So it's closed?

Not to mention Ouyang Kang, even Mo Yunlaixi was reluctant.It's so easy to find a decent way to do business, and it will be closed if it is closed, how can everyone accept it?What can I do if I don't accept it?

The whole family began to worry. Compared with this, the haunted legend seemed less interesting.

Survival is always a more urgent and severe issue than ghosts.

Two days later, the team of Ouyang's family sending gifts to the countryside finally set off.

Sending it out of the city in person, seeing the cart full of her heart leave, Nianfu felt an urge to go back with the cart.

She misses her mother very much, and also misses her grandparents very much.

These are the three people she is closest to in this world. No matter who she is, they have given her the most selfless care.

But Nianfu knew that she couldn't.

Not to mention that she still owes Ouyang Kang a broken garden of 3000 taels, so she can't walk away with peace of mind. Even if there is no such thing, she also knows that running away is never the solution to the problem.If she was in the capital and retreated when encountering such difficulties, then even if she returned to the countryside, what would she do?

In contrast, staying in the capital has more opportunities.

you can.

Clenching his fists tightly, Nianfu forced himself to turn his head, swallowed back all the tears of homesickness, and tried his best to cheer himself up.

But what else could she do now?

That's the only food that is cheap and cheap, and the city is basically full of flowers.What else can I do to compete with everyone?

Hot pot is easy to cook, but what about the venue?There are also stoves and braziers, the initial investment is not a small amount.

Claypot rice is not a big investment, and it is not afraid of the cold, but the control of the heat is too skillful.If the rice is undercooked, it will be raw. If it is overcooked, it will become mushy, or if it is overcooked, it will lose the grainy texture.Even if she can do it by herself, how many copies can she make by herself?

Nianfu, who once had entrepreneurial experience, has begun to understand that catering, especially mass catering like her, is not something that can be done alone. You must let people like Mo Yun easily master it, so that it is possible to do it.

What should we do then?

Seeing the girl's stubborn eyebrows, Ouyang Kang felt distressed.Is there any way he can help her?

In the evening, Zhong Shan reminded him, "The queen is fifteen, do you want to go home to sacrifice, young master?"

Hey, Ouyang Kang suddenly remembered that Du Chuan still cared if he asked for tofu.But in the situation of reciting blessings now, do you have the mood to do it?

"Okay." Anyway, I can't think of a good idea, so I might as well go back to my old job.Besides, there are a lot of people in the family who can help, and they can do as much as they want.Think about blessings.He took the initiative to say, "Anyway, it is done. After it is finished, you will send some to every household. The things are small, which is also our intention."

Although she was worried, she also knew that it was not easy for Ouyang Kang to make those friends.They don't have much money for gifts.Just work on these details.

Zhong Shan was familiar with the customs of the capital, so he said, "Can I trouble my sister to make some red bean paste buns, glutinous rice cakes, and fried dumplings? These four are must-have snacks for the Xiayuan Festival in the capital, and it's okay to make a portion and give it away. It looks better, and if there are more, it’s okay to sell them outside.”

"Then give me a general idea of ​​what the capital does. I'll see how to do it." Now that he was doing serious things, Nianfu was no longer so worried, and Ouyang Kang felt relieved.

Early on the fourteenth.Wang Xu's family was assigning people to prepare glutinous rice and red beans for tomorrow's sacrifice, when someone came to report suddenly, "Master Ouyang sent someone to bring some snacks."

Upon hearing this, Bao'er threw the toy away and jumped up from the fire fence, "Sister Mu brought the food? Give it to me!"

Seeing this, Wang Xu laughed, "Wait a little longer. No one will fight you."

The servants laughed and said, "This is also my fate. Otherwise, others would often send things. How can I not see Bao Geer so happy? That is the noble person he was destined for. Bao Geer is so clever, naturally Know how to make friends with people."

Your Excellency?Wang Xu's heart moved when he heard it, yes, if there were not Nianfu and Ouyang Kang that day, his son would have been in bad luck, and he would never have had a good life.

Originally, when Wang Can went to Beijing to rush for the exam and took their mother and son with them, they were criticized by the elders in the family, saying that she was lazy as a daughter-in-law, not at home to honor her in-laws, and only wanted to run around with her husband. Wang Xu pretended not to know and pretended to be deaf and dumb. Mixed in the past.But if the blood of the Wang family is broken, how can she, a daughter-in-law, sit here so peacefully as her young wife?

In this way, Nianfu and Ouyang Kang are really the nobles of their mother and son.

Soon the servants received the offering fruit, but they saw that there were four neat ones.Snow-white and flexible tofu, glutinous rice cakes wrapped in sauerkraut, golden fried dumplings, and small and cute red bean paste buns.It is exquisite and beautiful, and it looks like it has worked hard.

Bao'er immediately clamored to eat, but the servant smiled and opened another snack box, "Don't worry, brother, this is just made for you by Sister Mu."

"Wow, mother, look, little rabbit!" Bao'er happily took out a rabbit-shaped bean paste bun that was only as big as his palm, and her grinning mouth couldn't be closed no matter what.

Look at that white and fat little body, slender big ears, red mouth and red eyes, isn't it a lively little rabbit?

Wang Xu also smiled heartily, "Mother saw it, isn't she so beautiful? But this one is a bit cold, how about warming it up on the stove before eating?"

Although he was greedy, Bao'er obediently agreed.

The servants of the family hurriedly picked up the food and put it on the iron stove in the house.Wang Xu's eyes followed her son, seeing those exquisitely made snacks placed on the iron stove that filled the room warmly, she thought more and more of the good and kind relationship between Sister Mu and Ouyang Kang Asking the servants of Ouyang's family, "How are you young master and sister? Is there enough charcoal fire at home in such a cold day? Is business still busy?"

"Mrs. Xie is concerned. The young master and sister are all well. There is enough charcoal fire at home, but the business has not been done."

"What?" Wang Xu was surprised.

"It's too cold, and the crystal rolls are not easy to sell, so my sister simply stopped and is thinking about what else to do."

Wang Xushi also felt worried, but she couldn't think of any good idea for a while, so she asked someone to divide half of the mutton bought at home in the morning and give it to the servant to take back as a gift. take heart.

In such a cold weather, what business can they do?

Just thinking about it, Wang Can suddenly came back in a hurry.

(The pot cover on the top of the head is weak and asks: Well, these two chapters will not be too cruel, right? It’s just a little stimulation, and Fuwa will soon bottom out.) (To be continued.
