reborn child bride

Chapter 42 Peach Blossom ([-])

Shen Ji had a bitter face, "I feel so tired. I want to hire another person. I will cook at home and let Aunt De be a small manager."

Wei Ying nodded and said, "If you feel tired, take a rest. As for hiring someone, I agree." He saw that Shen Ji was full of energy, but he was inevitably getting thinner, so he wanted to say the same thing.Now the small stall is on the right track, and people can be hired to do it.

Just now, Shen Ji was calculating how much the cost of re-employment would increase, and found that it would not be too much, a few taels of silver a month, but he didn't have to work so hard.

Just do it, and the next day she sent Aunt De to find some women her age.If you don't look for the little girl, you don't want to get into trouble like that day again.And people like Aunt De's age are more stable, because they can't earn so much doing other things.

When Aunt De was free, she also gossiped with people in these alleys, and soon brought two people over.I was looking for it according to Shen Ji's request. She is a down-to-earth person and doesn't talk too much.Of course, there is also selfishness, these two people get along better with her on weekdays.

Shen Ji also understands, but as long as people are easy to use.She told Aunt De on the spot that she would be in charge for five taels of silver a month.Then the two newcomers will have a trial period for one month, two taels of silver during the trial period, and three taels of silver when they become regulars, including food.The cooking recipes are of course in the hands of Shen Ji himself.During this period of time, a family of imitators also popped up, bought their porridge and vegetables back home, and then spared a portion that looked similar, each of which was a penny cheaper than Shen Ji.At the beginning, I was really pulled away from some business, but after tasting the taste, I came back.

From this, Aunt De knew that it was not realistic for her to get rid of Shen Ji and go it alone.It's better to help Shen Ji look after the store.As for Uncle De, he was considered a non-staff, helping with some manual labor every month, and Shen Ji also gave him three taels of silver.In this way, after a month, they can have an income of 20 taels.For both of them, this was already a pleasant surprise.It's only [-] taels of silver for the son to walk the darts a month, so they won't burden him.He can also save four or five taels of silver every month to subsidize his son.Maybe in a few years, I can buy a smaller yard, marry a daughter-in-law and hold grandchildren.

In this way, Shen Ji was much more relaxed.Except that I still need to get up early to cook porridge, that is, to cook.Two people were hired, one went to the store with Aunt De, and the other stayed at home to help Shen Ji.Uncle De just ran around, sending the finished things, and helping wherever it was needed.Sometimes, when Wei Ying went out to the inn to debate with those students, or visited Su Confucianism, he acted as an old man, and it was considered as a show.

Among the people living here, there are people who drive horse-drawn carriages to send people to various places. When Wei Ying needs it, Shen Ji asks Uncle De to charter a carriage with money.

Wei Ying originally said that Shen Ji would go to Beijing with him, saying that there are many opportunities to make money here.I really didn't expect that she can earn five or sixty taels of silver a month now, which is much faster than him selling sour essays.

Shen Ji smiled and said: "It's the way it is in catering. As long as there are enough customers, it can probably make half of the profit. Young master, thank you for bringing me to Beijing."

Wei Ying is writing an essay for several candidates. It is a topic they have proposed, and they can find someone to catch them. If they write well, they can memorize them first.If you encounter the same or similar exam questions, you can write them directly.It was agreed, Wei Ying sold the article to them, but he could no longer use it.

Originally, with the current economic conditions, Wei Ying didn't have to do this.But Shen Ji suddenly became a pillar, and he was really troubled.When I went to the inn today, I picked up some articles and came back to write them.Moreover, with his literary talents, he can sell for five taels of silver.Shen Ji only thought that he was practicing his pen, and obediently polished the ink beside him.Later, I saw that Uncle De took out the article, and then came back after changing the money, so I realized that this was the case.

"Young master, you will be leaving in less than half a month. What are you worrying about?" It is already the end of February, and Shen Ji's business has been done for 20 days. I just calculated yesterday and earned more than 40. two silver.Therefore, she felt that it was a waste of time for Wei Ying to sell articles to make money at such a critical juncture.

Of course, Wei Ying's original intention was not to "eat soft food", but it was not without any benefit.

"I've read all the books I should read many times. This is just practicing my pen. There are still money to collect. Why not do it."

Shen Ji thought for a while, "Really won't delay reviewing the book?"

"No, would I make a joke about this?" Wei Ying's face was serious.Shen Ji thinks about it, and indeed what he said is also reasonable, "Then you practice, if it affects your own review, just refuse."

Wei Ying smiled and said, "You really are a housekeeper?"

Shen Ji blushed, spat at him, then turned around and went out to work.It's just that when I do things, I always feel a little restless, yes, why should I be so concerned about his affairs.

As soon as Uncle De delivered the cooked sausage, someone came to invite Wei Ying to drink with a post.When Shen Ji saw that Uncle De was not there, he went up to accept the post and invited someone to sit down and drink tea. The person said that his young master asked him to deliver it elsewhere, so he stopped sitting.

Shen Ji looked at the post, wow, the bronzing ones seem to be from rich people.

After seeing her, Wei Ying saw the curiosity on her face and said, "It's the Fourth Young Master of the Household Minister's family. He is the champion of the last subject. He met last time when he went to the inn to debate with several candidates."

"It seems that he appreciates you, young master." Shen Ji was delighted.

"In the officialdom, it's good to know some people. However, if he has no talent, I won't go to make friends with him. He invited me to attend a poetry meeting organized by him in his house tomorrow, and he must have invited many readers. Candidates of this year will make friends with literature."

"Oh. Then I'll iron the young master's big squirrel fur dress, so I can wear it out to meet guests tomorrow." It was Wei Ying's best dress that Aunt Wei had put down last year after she gritted her teeth.

Early the next morning, Wei Ying went out.Shen Ji took a look, he had carefully dressed up, he looked like a good son of Zhuo Shijia.Once Jinke is on the list, I am afraid that he will be a good son-in-law in the eyes of some big shots.Looking at Wei Ying, who was dressed up by herself, she suddenly felt uncomfortable.Perhaps soon, it will be time for them to part ways.

Seeing that she was distracted, Wei Ying flicked her forehead, "What are you thinking? The pot is about to burn."

"Ah..." Shen Ji hurriedly went to look at the pot, and the invited Mrs. Hu Si smiled and said, "Sister Ji, don't worry, I'll watch it."

Shen Ji patted his chest, suppressing the weird feeling in his heart.He was trimmed by sesame buns again, and when he looked up again, he was getting into the carriage.The carriage was rented for five taels of silver a day, and it was well cleaned up, so it shouldn't be embarrassing to go today.

Wei Ying went to attend the appointment of the Minister's son, and Shen Ji was a little restless all day long.After finishing what should be done, I sat in the room holding the hand stove in a daze.Mrs. Hu sent the things back and saw that she was still the same, so she sighed silently, then went outside and began to peel radishes and shred ginger.
