Chapter 73 Test Success
On the second day, my uncle sent a boy over to send a rental contract for Xiaosi and Xiaocao to sign.

It is written in black and white that the monthly rent will be calculated from the first day of the next month, and the shop will be used by Miao Xiaocao and Miao Xiaosi from the day of signing and depositing, and the next month's rent will be sent to the owner on the first day of each month.After reading it several times and confirming that there was no objection, the husband and wife signed and printed their fingerprints.What this owner gives is the best

I didn't expect it to be so fast, but it's okay to be fast.

The two of them sent the monthly rent to the owner together with the boy who delivered the contract.After coming out of the host's house, I went directly to the shop.

The shop was almost cleaned up, the previous shopkeeper brought a guy to clean it, and when he saw Xiaocao coming, he immediately came to meet him.

"New owner, this shop can be tidied up today, you can do whatever you want."

"Okay, thank you." Xiaocao said with a happy smile.

Xiaocao looked at the wing room and yard behind and asked Xiao Si.

"Do you think we should let our parents also live in the shop, and then rent out our yard? This way we may be less stressed."

Xiao Si thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, you can figure it out. I'll buy a big house when I have money." Xiao Si's voice was simply not magnetic.

The husband and wife have been cleaning the back room. The three small rooms were used by the guys before, so they can be cleaned after a while. Everything in the kitchen is still there. The previous shopkeeper said that these can be left to Xiaocao and the others. use.

One corner of the yard can still be exposed to the sun.Xiaocao thought that here she could bask in the sun for her mother.

As for the back door, Xiao Si found a craftsman, opened a window on the wall, and built a shed inside.

It got dark very quickly in winter, and it was dark before the two of them got halfway through, and Xiaocao was tired, so he said to go home.

The streets in winter are extraordinarily deserted, even the lights of restaurants are cool.

Xiaosi first held Xiaocao's hand and clasped his fingers tightly. Xiaocao was too tired to walk, so he held her in his arms again and walked forward with his arms around her.

My heart was beating violently. It was the first time I had such intimacy outside, but my whole body seemed to heat up. This way of keeping warm really worked.

When the two returned home, Miao Da was watching at the gate.

Xiaocao felt hot in her heart, "Father!"

When Miao Da saw his daughter and son-in-law, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "You two children, it's so cold, why did you come back so late?"

"Father, let's clean the shop, and we'll move in the shop tomorrow." Xiaocao took Miao Da's arm and entered the yard, Xiaosi followed behind and closed the yard door.

The little grass girl also stood by the door and waited.

How could Miao Xiaocao be unhappy with such parents?
"Mother, let's go into the house, it's cold outside." Xiaocao grabbed his mother and led her into the house.

A family of four ate around the stove.

The four of them discussed it and decided to live in the shop and rent out the yard, which would help share part of the shop's rent.

I tidied up my things at night, the grass lying on the bed really didn't want to move, so I let Xiao Si get water for her to scrub.After Xiaocao fell asleep, the seedlings grew up and made dough again, and fermented in a warm pot.

Before dawn the next day, Miao Da got up to spread the cakes, and the husband and wife also got up to help.Soon the cakes were ready, Miao Da insisted on going out to sell the big cakes, Xiao Cao and Xiao Si started to move things, and the cart they pushed from Miaojia Village just came in handy.

Looking at Xiaosi in commoner clothes pushing the cart, no matter how he looked, he couldn't conceal his aura.

After the house was moved, I started tidying up the shop again. After three full days of work, I finally settled down in the shop.

Unfortunately, there is everything in the kitchen, even the firewood is piled full.

The Chinese New Year is only a few days away, and the streets are bustling with people doing New Year's goods.

Xiaocao was very anxious, and asked Miao Da to read the old calendar, picked a good day, set off a string of firecrackers, and it was considered the opening of the business.

A large stove was set up in the middle of the store, and the pancakes were made and sold on the spot.

The business of the newly opened store is not big, every day Xiaocao cooks at home, Xiaosi collects money for cakes, and Miaoda still walks around the streets selling big cakes.

It may be that the Chinese New Year is approaching, and there is a peaceful atmosphere everywhere, and the pancakes baked by the noodles every day are also sold out.

Seeing that the business is going well at the end of the year, Xiaocao will make more pancakes and put them in the pot, and then take some to the vegetable market with a dustpan to sell. Although the vegetable market is messy, the business is still good.

On the New Year's Eve, Xiaocao still made [-] big cakes and asked Miao Da to sell them at home. She and Xiao Si went out to sell them together. She told Xiao Si to sell these big cakes first, and then save some to send to For the homeless beggars in the ruined temple outside the city.Xiao Si readily agreed.

The two went all the way to the outside of the city, and there were more than 20 of the [-] cakes they brought out. Xiaocao looked at it and said it was not for sale, so they sent it directly to the ruined temple.

Many beggars slept together, and they all woke up to the smell of the pancakes.

More than 20 pancakes were quickly distributed, and the two returned to the shop.

A middle-aged steward was telling Miao Da to send fifty pancakes to the back street at night.

Xiaocao looked at the sky, afraid that it would be too late, so Miao Da agreed, and the middle-aged steward gave Miao Da a penny of the money.

"Father, it's already noon, so I'm afraid it's too late?" Xiaocao said worriedly.

"It's too late. I'll knead the noodles and put them in the pot to warm them up. I'll turn on the fire later. Our family will have an early New Year's Eve dinner and start making pancakes. We'll send them in the evening. That's just right." Miao Da started to work with his hands, watching With good cash, he was reluctant to let it go.

Unexpectedly, the business was really good. Everyone said that they bought a New Year's Eve dinner, and Miao Da was busy with his daughter and son-in-law.

Since the afternoon, the sound of firecrackers has continued, and the number of people on the street has gradually decreased. Many shops have closed early, and they all go home for the New Year.

The New Year's Eve dinner for the four of them was quite sumptuous, and Xiaocao cooked it herself, and she even took out the wine she had made earlier and poured a small bowl for Dad and Xiaosi.

Miao Da and Xiao Cao Niang are very excited. This year is the first time that four of them celebrate the New Year together.Although the house in Miaojia Village was burned down, the business will get better and better once they settle down in the county town.

The little grass girl said bluntly that she hoped to have a grandson next year.

Xiaosi looked straight at Xiaocao, Xiaocao blushed.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, the three of them got back to work, Xiaosi added firewood, seedlings were cooked, and Xiaocao was baked.

The three cooperated very well, fifty big cakes were ready soon, and Xiao Cao and Xiao Si gave big cakes.

The two of them came back after a while of burning incense, still holding Xiguo, melon seeds, peanuts, early morning and candy.

Xiaocao took out all the money sold these days, and the family counted the money around the table.

I also wrote down how many cakes I made every day and how much I sold them for. After doing some calculations, I made a profit of three or seven taels of silver these days.

The little grass girl was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.In the past, I always faced the loess and turned my back to the sky, looking at the sky to live, but now I have started a small business and made some profits.

Maybe it was because of the alcohol, on this New Year's Eve, Xiaosi worked extra hard, and didn't let Xiaocao go until midnight.

Miao Da got up early in the morning on the first day of the new year, set off firecrackers and opened the gate.

There are only a handful of shops open on New Year's Day.

I also made about [-] flatbreads on this day. People who visited the New Year saw this shop open and tried to buy flatbreads.

Today's pancake Xiaocao made some attempts, such as pancakes made with half of the prepared noodles and half of the hot noodles, and sprinkled with sesame seeds.

There were not many people, and Miao Da could handle it all by herself, so she and Xiao Si made a small water tank out of clay. She lit charcoal in it and roasted it slowly. On the third day, the small water tank The clay was almost dry, Xiaocao rolled the dough into an oval flatbread, pressed it against the inner wall of the water tank and baked it, after a while it smelled delicious.

The first test was successful, and the whole family was very happy.
