Happy pastoral event: a wonderful wife

Chapter 8 harvest is very good

On the second day, Shen Yunjin woke up early, started steaming melon and noodles, and made a pot of delicious pumpkin pie.After finishing, she reheated the two patties left over from yesterday, and left them for breakfast for her sister and brother.

Shen Yunjin neatly placed the golden round pumpkin pies on the drawer. Three drawers made of wicker sticks formed a steamer. All the pumpkin cakes were placed together, which just filled two steamer baskets. After the pumpkin pies were steamed, , Shen Yunjin decided to take the steamer directly to the town to sell cakes.Such a steamer not only has a certain heat preservation effect, but also can make the pumpkin pie look clean and tidy, and increase the appearance.

After Yunwen and Jinger had breakfast, they took their baskets and went to town with Shen Yunjin.

Shen Yunjin was carrying two steamers in his hands, and it was really difficult to walk to the town by foot, but fortunately, there was an ox cart parked at the gate of Qingshi Village every morning, which was specially used to take the villagers to the town , the fee is not expensive, so Shen Yunjin took his younger siblings to the town in a bullock cart.

There were other villagers in the car. When someone saw her coming out with her younger siblings, they would inevitably ask a few questions curiously.

"Mr. Li's family, what are you doing in town, are you selling things?"

Shen Yunjin just laughed twice, and prevaricated: "I don't have anything good to sell, so I just made a few cakes to earn some food money."

Some women eagerly want to open the steamer to see what kind of cakes are inside, and some people can already smell the fragrance at the tip of their noses.

However, Shen Yunjin and her younger sister kept holding the lid of the steamer tightly to prevent others from opening it, "The lid has to be covered, otherwise the cake will be cold in town."

Seeing that she didn't want to show it to them, the women had no choice but to give up, muttering in their hearts how stingy, a few broken cakes are still like treasures, aren't they just not willing to take them out and share them with everyone.

In fact, it's not that Shen Yunjin is reluctant to show it to others, it's just that some people in Qingshi Village are too talkative and always like to spread rumors everywhere. If she takes out the pumpkin pie, someone will definitely ask her how to make it.If she tells her how to do it, someone will learn how to do it if it is so simple, then won't her business have competitors by then.But if you don't say it, you will be criticized even more, so it's better not to let others know from the beginning.

After arriving in the town, the three siblings Shen Yunjin quickly got out of the bullock cart and went to the town's market to find a place. If you want to sell things here, a good stall is very important, but it's a pity that their siblings came It's a little late, and the better seats are already occupied.

Shen Yunjin had no choice but to find a place outside the market, put the steamer in front of him, and started selling.

"Shen Kee Pumpkin Pie, delicious pumpkin cake, delicious and cheap! Shen Kee Pumpkin Pie..." Jing Er yelled the loudest, even drowning out the voices of her two sisters.

Shen Ji Pumpkin Pie, this is Shen Yunjin's own signature name. She once thought about opening a pastry shop called "Shen Ji", but now the name is really used... Although it is only placed on the side of the road A simple stall, but it can be regarded as her own hard work.

At first, Shen Yunjin thought that the position he occupied was not good and that he might not attract too many guests, but he didn't expect that Jing Er's voice was too loud, and many people really came to have a look after hearing the voice.

"How do you sell this pumpkin pie?"

"Two cents a piece, delicious and not greasy." Shen Yunjin patiently answered each guest's question.

Two pennies each is not expensive, and many people bought one to try it out because they thought it was strange. They went back and forth, and soon sold out the pumpkin pie in one of the steamers.

By noon, the other steamer was also sold out.

What made Shen Yunjin sister and brother happy was that not only were all the pumpkin pies sold out, but also many customers gave good reviews after eating them. No one said it was bad, and even a few customers who had tasted it came back again Bought it once.

Looking at it this way, selling pumpkin pies could become a profitable business.

Shen Yunjin packed up her things, smiled at her younger siblings, and said, "Let's go, let's go eat."

She calculated that there were seven pumpkin cakes in one drawer, and the sum of the two steamers was 42 cakes. This time, they sold a total of 84 Wen, which is not a small amount. The wages are much higher.

The three siblings went to the stall and ate a bowl of fried rice each. After eating, Shen Yunjin bought a pumpkin for eight Wen at the market, and prepared to use it for tomorrow's pumpkin pie.One pumpkin is about two days' worth.

Jing'er was holding a big pumpkin in her arms, a little puzzled, "Sister, doesn't Mrs. Zhou's family have it? Why do we still have to buy it here?"

"The melons from Mrs. Zhou's family are eaten at home. How can they always be sold to us? They will still eat them." Shen Yunjin shook his head, "And Mrs. Zhou is too embarrassed to accept my money if she doesn't come. Buying melons at Zhou's house will only cause trouble for others. We should be more considerate of others when dealing with people, and we can't always think of convenience and cause trouble for others, you understand."

Jing Er nodded obediently, "Understood my sister."

While walking back, he passed a small shop selling cloth. Shen Yunjin took a look at the old clothes on his younger sister and younger brother, and walked in with his younger siblings.

"Sister, what are we buying cloth for?" Yunwen asked in a low voice.

Shen Yunjin patted her head, "We can earn money now, how can we let you continue to wear these old clothes, buy some cloth and go back to make new ones."

Hearing what she said, Yun Wen and Jing Er glanced at each other and laughed happily. After all, they were still children, and no one wanted to wear new clothes.

Shen Yunjin looked around, pointed to a piece of peach-colored cloth, and asked the shopkeeper, "How do you sell that cloth?"

"It's a good material, ten cents a foot." The man smiled honestly.

Shen Yunjin was quite satisfied with the price, the peach-colored fabric was fresh, and it was just right for a girl of Yunwen's age. If she wore such a new dress, Yunwen would definitely look even more handsome.

"Okay, I want this peachy one."

Afterwards, Shen Yunjin picked another piece of dark blue cloth for his younger brother, and another piece of tender purple cloth for himself. After buying a few feet of each of the three kinds of cloth, the family's new clothes were settled.

After buying, Shen Yunjin said to the clerk in the store, "I bought so much, can you give me a discount?"

The guy immediately showed embarrassment, "Girl, the price is not expensive anymore. If you don't believe me, go to other cloth stores in the town. Ours must be the cheapest."

Shen Yunjin knew that the price was fair, so she didn't want to haggle the price, she just thought it would be a little cheaper, but since the buddy said so, she didn't make things difficult for him.

Her gaze fell to the silk thread beside her.

"It's not cheap, it's not cheap, but can you give me some beautiful silk thread, I'll use it when I go back to sew things."

The price of silk thread varies. If it is ordinary black and gray thread, it is very cheap, but if it is colored thread, the price will be much more expensive. If it is more beautiful gold thread or silver thread, the price will be even more expensive. People rarely buy.
