Chapter 21 Ding's Carpentry Shop

When I had time to go to Yun's house for work, I would take a stroll with my suitcase on my back.Of course, this time, no one stood pointing at her from a distance.It has to be said that once Grandma Shanshen showed her power, she was still very intimidating.

I don't know if the Yun family is really short of manpower, or if the quarrel last time made Mr. Yun feel guilty, but when Ding Wei was at work, she started to work part-time to deliver food again.Not only that, Uncle Yun asked her in every possible way to talk to Mr. Yun more, even to introduce the dishes.

At first Ding Wei was still a little apprehensive, even though Mr. Yun's face was very handsome and masculine, but his whole body was full of hidden meanings that strangers should not enter, she really didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, the first time was born and the second time was familiar, Uncle Yun would often accompany him to beat and drum, and gradually she got used to it.After all, with Yun's family's wages, she was the boy who reported the name of the dishes in the restaurants in her previous life.

After another month of such a leisurely life, Ding Laoer finally found a suitable shop. He specially hired a carriage to go back to the village and took his father and sister into the city for a tour.

Ding Wei carefully looked at the shop's neighbors, as well as the front streets and back alleys, and finally nodded with satisfaction.In business, what matters is the right time, place and people, and if the same is not the case, you may suffer a loss.

On the left side of this shop is a calligraphy and painting shop, and on the right side is a tea house, where rich and elegant people gather.There are several restaurants and restaurants across Qingshi Road in Qianjie, and the back alley is very quiet. There are a few well-to-do families living there. There are small officials from the county government and teachers from the county school.

With such a favorable location and people, everything will be ready if you choose a good day to open the business. Just wait for the new-style wooden utensils saved at home to be brought in, and the Ding family will wait for the cashier.

Ding Laoer was an apprentice since he was a child, and after he was an apprentice, he took on jobs everywhere, and the hardships involved are hard to describe.Now seeing that his woodware shop is about to open, the gratitude in his heart to the girl is as majestic as a river.

If it wasn't for the girl Zhang Luo who opened the pasta shop, the family would not have the money to let her rent the shop, let alone those new-style wooden drawings.Everyone in the family said that the younger sister was favored by the mountain god's grandma, and she was enlightened, but he didn't think so. If the younger sister treated him badly, even if she was full of money, she wouldn't tell him half-heartedly. Sentence.

He was so grateful in his heart, but a farmer wouldn't say any nasty words of thanks after all.He only faintly decided that if the shop made money, he would slowly buy a good dowry for the girl, even if the girl had a child, she would find a good family to marry again.Even if the girl can't find a good family, it doesn't matter, he will just raise her for the rest of his life.

Ding Wei didn't know that her second elder brother was so thoughtful, so she finally made a trip to the city, so she hurriedly took the opportunity to go shopping in cloth shops and grocery stores, bought some needles and thread, and finally carried two catties for her nephew and niece peanut candy.

This time, the Lu family didn't show up, so Ding Laoer found a famous blind man in the city, and decided to open in ten days.

While the Ding family was busy with the noodle shop, they were eagerly looking forward to the opening of the woodware shop.People in the village occasionally passed by the shop to buy two steamed buns for their children's toothbrush. Seeing that the Ding family was so happy and happy, they couldn't help asking.

Firstly, Mrs. Lu was really proud of her son's promising future, but secondly, she wanted to vent her anger, so she naturally told her family's happy event verbatim.

As a result, the old mountain col was lively again.Ding Wei's reputation as a disciple of the mountain god's grandma was even more confirmed. Originally, the Ding family was an ordinary farmer. Except for a few acres of fertile land, they also lived a tight life like other families in the village.However, after his daughter was favored by the mountain god's grandma, her days became prosperous.

The noodle shop is booming, but there is no passer-by who passes by the door of the shop without paying.Those who are in a hurry buy a few to eat while walking, and those who are not in a hurry sit down and ask for a plate of juicy dumplings or white and fat buns, plus two dishes of refreshing side dishes, and a pot of old wine, how tired you will go to the sky.

Nowadays, people have even opened wooden utensil shops in the city.In a year or two, maybe the Ding family will move to the city.

I have to say that the villagers were really smart this time.That night, this matter was mentioned at the dinner table of Ding's family.Tomorrow, I will send the wooden utensils from those villages at home to the shop, maybe Ding Laoer will live in the city permanently in the future.He couldn't have no one around him to take care of his food and clothing, so Mrs. Li had to go with her. Both her parents had gone, and Fu'er, a little girl, was not easy to throw away, so a family of three had to leave when she left.

Every time Mrs. Li thinks that her small family will move to the city, without her mother-in-law to control, and the whole yard is up to her, she can't sleep because of joy.But she didn't want to show this joy, instead she said with a sincere face, "It's better for father and mother to go to the city to enjoy the blessings, and Fu'er and I stay at home, and we can't go to the noodle shop on the left or right." open."

Sure enough, Mrs. Lu's complexion improved a lot when she heard this, and said angrily, "It seems that the noodle shop can't open without you. Your father and I won't be able to help the second child when we go to the city, let alone me After leaving, what about the chickens and pigs at home, your sister is inconvenient now. Your father is gone, and the eldest one can't do the work in the field."

Mrs. Liu has been thinking secretly for the past few days, thinking that the benefits of the sister-in-law going to the city will outweigh the disadvantages for their family.The Lu family has to take care of the family, and most of the time the shop is taken care of by their husband and wife. Even if they are not greedy for money, they can always relax and be in charge of the family. Hearing someone call the proprietress really makes me happier.

Besides, even if the second child's family moved to the city, the shop would have to hand over the money back to the mother-in-law even if the shop made money. After all, the Ding family hadn't separated yet, so their family couldn't suffer any losses.

Thinking like this, she chimed in and said, "Mother is right, brother and sister, you can go to the city with peace of mind. The woodware shop is doing well, and the second child can't handle it all by himself, so how can we let him take care of himself?"

While doing needlework, Ding Wei had noticed the expressions of the two sister-in-laws and sighed secretly.But everyone has selfish intentions, and the two sister-in-laws are planning for their own small family, so they can't be said to be wrong.

"Second sister-in-law, let's go, I still have me at home. Besides, it's not like going to the city and not coming back. If you have free time, you can come back for a few days. Even if we don't want you and second brother, we still can't bear to part with Fu'er."

Fu'er was able to talk just now, but now she was biting her fingers and didn't know what the family was discussing, but when she heard what her aunt said, she hurried up to hug her arm, and said in a childish voice, "Fu'er likes my aunt. "

Everyone laughed when they heard it, and naturally the matter of the second child's family of three going to the city was settled.

On the second day, Ding Laoer hired a carriage and transported all the wooden utensils, together with the parcel boxes and cages of their small family, to the city.

Ding Wei saw that the old lady was busy, and guessed that she must also be thinking about going to the shop, so she suggested that the noodle shop take a day off, and her family was loose.

Mrs. Lu was still a little reluctant to part with the income from the shop, so she used her grandson as an excuse, "Aren't you going to work at Yun's house today? Dabao is left unattended at home, so I shouldn't go?"

Ding Wei embraced Dabao, and said with a smile, "Mother, don't worry, go to the city, Dabao will follow me to Yun's house today."

The Lu family had no excuses, and felt really itchy, so he dragged his eldest daughter-in-law into the city by car.

Ding Wei tidied up the house, left food in the pot for her father and elder brother who went to the field to pick up the seedlings, and finally took Dabao to Yun's house.

Everyone in the front yard of Yun's family was usually close to Ding Wei, and they didn't miss her food. When they suddenly saw her bring her nephew to the door, they all came to chat and laugh.Especially Aunt Li's family, who hugged the chubby Dabao, laughed from ear to ear, and said that they would take care of the child for Ding Wei.

Seeing that Dabao seemed a little scared, Ding Wei felt sorry for the child's sudden arrival in an unfamiliar environment, so she declined, "No, auntie, this child is too naughty, it's better to stay with me and take care of him nearby."

Although Aunt Li was reluctant, she didn't force her, she chased Xiao Fuzi back to the residence to find a bag of melon seeds to stuff for Dabao, and then let their aunt and nephew into the inner courtyard.

During this period of time, Ding Wei came every other day, which was very regular, basically equal to Zhao Rong, and the well water did not interfere with the river water.

So, in the small kitchen at the moment, only Xiaoqing is wiping and wiping. She is only 12 years old, and she has not yet shed her child's disposition.

Ding Wei gave a few instructions and began to prepare Mr. Yun's lunch. The weather was very sunny in the past few days, but it was a bit gloomy when she got up this morning. The old people in the village said it was going to rain.

As the old saying goes, spring rain is as expensive as oil.Farmers who are looking forward to a good harvest in autumn are naturally happy, but it is a bit difficult for those who lie in bed for a long time.Not to mention the faint dampness of the quilt, even the mood is a little more irritable.

Ding Wei thought about stewing hot soup all the way here. Speaking of which, Lin Liu, the purchasing manager of the Yun family, is really capable. Whenever she asks for any ingredients, no matter if it is a specialty from east, west, north or south, it will only take a few minutes. It will definitely be placed on the stove every day.

The day before yesterday, Ding Wei just casually said that today's Chinese toon is just right, and there are a few more emerald green Chinese toon in today's vegetable basket, and they are of the best quality, the kind with very fresh leaves and stems.

Ding Wei couldn't help sighing again, at least she hadn't seen a toon tree near the old mountain col, and she didn't know where this powerful Lin Guanshi got it.

But these are not important anymore. In order to be worthy of Steward Lin's hard work, she decided to add a toon scrambled egg to the lunch menu.

The baishengsheng tofu cubes were simmering in the small casserole. After tumbling for half an hour, Ding Wei put some sliced ​​mushrooms in again. After the soup boiled once, she finally added a dozen slices of mutton.Almost as soon as the meat slices changed color, they quickly took off the stove and put them aside to suffocate.

After the fresh white rice is steamed, the toon eggs and dry-fried whitebait are out of the pot, and finally the casserole is heated up on the fire, sprinkled with a little green onion, and a lunch is ready.
