Chapter 27 Together

When Li Xiuxiu came back with a basket, Aunt Lao Gen had already packed the cabbage and radishes and placed them on the steps under the window of the west wing.

Then he sat in the yard and did some random work with his hands, eagerly looking forward to Li Xiuxiu's return and figuring out what girl Xiuxiu was going to do.

"Auntie, I bought something back." When Li Xiuxiu entered the door, she saw Aunt Lao Gen looking at the door, and also saw the cabbages and radishes in the yard.

He said gratefully: "Auntie, you have already cleaned up the cabbage and radishes for me, and I won't be able to use that much for a while."

Aunt Lao Gen stood up immediately, and said as she walked, "That's nothing, just use as much as you can. What did you buy, it doesn't look easy on you."

Walking up to him, he raised his hand to give Li Xiuxiu a hand to put the basket on the ground. At the same time, he poked his head into the basket and exclaimed, "Why do you buy such old food?"

Xiuxiu smiled and put down the basket, then wiped off her sweat, and pulled Aunt Lao Gen to find a stool to sit on.

"Auntie, didn't you also say that there will be more places to use money in the future. No matter how much I earn from sewing clothes, the sum of the two money is not enough. I am thinking about making a living by earning more money."

Aunt Lao Gen came to her senses, the emotional show girl bought that pile of things to make money.But why is it so easy to make money!
"What's your plan?" She'd better listen to Xiuxiu first, and if it doesn't work, she'll find a solution with the old man.

"Auntie, isn't there a road to the west of our village? There are many cars coming and going on that road every day. I just want to make some food and sell it to the drivers?" Li Xiuxiu blinked and said, actually She is not very confident in her heart, and she very much hopes that Aunt Lao Gen can give herself a positive reply.

Aunt Lao Gen looked at Li Xiuxiu's expectant little eyes and asked, "What are you going to cook?"

"I plan to make less at the beginning. I will explore the road first, and then I will make five-spice eggs, scallion pancakes and vegetable buns." Li Xiuxiu looked at Aunt Lao Gen and pointed to the things in the basket.

He took out the remaining [-] cents in his pocket and said, "Auntie, I only have the [-] cents left. I'll buy cabbage and radishes with you. You can just give me what you see."

Aunt Lao Gen directly refused: "What kind of money do you want, you see how heretic you are."

"Auntie, if I eat by myself, I won't give any money. I use it to make money, so I must give it to you, otherwise I have to go out to buy it."

"Then...then I'll take it first, and tell Auntie if you need it again." Aunt Lao Gen put the fifty cents into the inner pocket of her clothes with trembling hands.

"Then when will you do it? Auntie will help you." Aunt Lao Gen didn't say whether Xiuxiu's way of making money would work. , but it's really not good to pour cold water, and I charged another [-] cents, so I offered to help.

The smile on Li Xiuxiu's face spread, and Aunt Lao Gen's initiative to help was the greatest affirmation to her.

She explained her plan to Aunt Lao Gen in detail, how to make spiced eggs, how to make vegetable buns, how many scallion pancakes to make, and so on.

Aunt Lao Gen listened, and her tongue clicked in her heart. She had never heard of spiced eggs and scallion pancakes before. This beautiful girl can really do it. Lao Li's family kicked this child out, but the loss was huge. .

After explaining, Li Xiuxiu dawdled and said to Aunt Lao Gen: "Auntie, you see, it's my first time to sell, and I'm alone... Really... Can you go with me? I'm bold. If you don't want to go...it's okay...then I..."

Seeing Li Xiuxiu's embarrassment, Aunt Lao Gen was a kind-hearted person, so she agreed immediately.

"Okay, my aunt will accompany you tomorrow."

In the afternoon, they boiled the eggs and soaked them in seasoning water; the buns were also served on top.

When Uncle Lao Gen came back in the evening, he heard Li Xiuxiu's plan, but he didn't say anything.It's just that when I'm sleeping, I tell my old lady to work more and talk less.

The next morning they got up and had dinner, and then they steamed the buns, cooked the eggs again, and made the scallion pancakes quickly.

Xiuxiu took eggs and scallion pancakes for Uncle Gen and his wife to taste.

The two gave up repeatedly, "Xiu girl, you want to use these things to earn money, so you don't want to give them to us two old ones. I really want to eat them after you earn money, otherwise we will eat them now, and we will eat them in our hearts." It’s also not practical.”

Li Xiuxiu just gave up.

Xiuxiu and Aunt Lao Gen each carried a basket, first covered it with a clean fine cloth, and then covered it with a thick cotton blanket to keep warm.

The two cheered each other up, and each walked to the road five kilometers west of the village with apprehension.
