The Peasant Gourment Chef

Zhang Tieshan went to the town early this morning, sold the wild things he hunted yesterday into the restaurant, came out of the restaurant, and was about to go home. For some reason, he suddenly remembered Li Hehua, paused, and then turned around. Direction, go to the market.

When I got to the market, I saw Li Hehua still selling cakes at the place where he often stayed. She seems to be very busy today, many people are talking around her, she keeps wrapping cakes for customers, and then collecting money, her fat body sometimes squatting and sometimes standing up, her movements are very inflexible due to her obesity, and even a bit difficult , Sweat covered her forehead for a while, and she needed to wipe the sweat from time to time, but the woman didn't care, she always smiled and talked to the guests, very polite and polite.

Zhang Tieshan stood there and watched for a long time without knowing it. The more he looked at it, the more doubts he felt in his heart. He always felt that the woman was very unfamiliar. She didn't look like the Li Hehua he married at all, although she was indeed the one he knew. Li Lotus.

Zhang Tieshan's brows gradually wrinkled.

Just looking at it like this, I unknowingly waited until Li Hehua sold out all the pastries, and saw that she went to buy a lot of eggs and red beans, and then seemed to be preparing to go back with a basket on her back.

She was taken home, and the Li family was unwilling to accept her. Zhang Tieshan couldn't imagine where she could live as a woman.

Zhang Tieshan didn't know what he was doing, so he just followed behind Li Hehua, wanting to see where she was going, but found out that she was going to their village. He wondered if Li Hehua lived in their village?

Zhang Tieshan continued to follow Li Hehua quietly, and then saw her stop under the big locust tree not far from his house, dodged behind the locust tree, and stared in the direction of his house, as if peeping what.

Zhang Tieshan frowned, not understanding what she meant by this, or what her intentions were. But he could feel that she was not malicious, so he didn't show up, and continued to watch behind her, trying to figure out what she was going to do.

After a while, his mother went out with a basin of clothes to be washed. Li Hehua saw it, seemed relieved, and quickly entered the house.

Zhang Tieshan quietly followed behind her and entered the house, but she didn't find it, and still thought that there was no one in the house.

When she entered the house, she saw that she went straight to the kitchen. Only then did Zhang Tieshan understand that she went to the kitchen to find Shulin, because Shulin likes to stay there, so she can find an accurate one.

As expected, Li Hehua went straight to Shulin after entering the kitchen, gave him the food in the basket, and then talked a lot to Shulin, in such a gentle and loving tone, it seemed like she was treating Shulin. With such a title, he really regarded Shulin as a sweetheart.

Zhang Tieshan heard Li Hehua's words clearly outside the kitchen, but the more he listened, the tighter his brows became, and the more doubts he felt in his heart.

He was very sure that Li Hehua didn't know that he was outside, and he didn't know anyone in the house, so he didn't deliberately pretend to be nice to Shulin. What she said was sincere. But how could she love Shulin so much? She hated Shulin the most before. She even beat or scolded Shulin. She didn't even give Shulin a bite to eat. Shulin was almost tortured to death by her several times. her reason.

But how can a person suddenly change his temper?

Just when Zhang Tieshan was thinking, Li Hehua from the kitchen came out. Zhang Tieshan hurriedly hid his figure and successfully made Li Hehua think that there was no one at home, and then sneaked out of Zhang's house.

Zhang Tieshan hesitated for a while, but finally followed up. He saw Li Hehua went all the way to Lianhua Village and entered a house. Zhang Tieshan recognized that the hostess of this house was the one who came to Li Hehua as the mat last time. woman.

It turned out that she lived here.

......................................................

Li Hehua didn't know that there was a person behind her all the way. After returning to Cao Simei's house, he was thinking about where to live next while preparing the cakes to be sold tomorrow.

In fact, the best way is to rent a house in the town, so it is very convenient to sell cakes or open a food stall later, but the problem is that she does not have enough money.

The only person she can ask for help now is Cao Simei, but Cao Simei's family is an ordinary farmer's family and is not rich. Such a sum of money is a lot for them. How could she be so embarrassed to ask? They have already helped her a lot.

Borrowing money doesn't work, the only way left is to make money quickly, save enough money for renting a house, and then rent a house to live in temporarily and earn money every day with peace of mind.

She now earns about 50 cents a day selling cakes, about 1,500 cents a month, and she can save enough rent for the first half of the town in two months. The speed of making money is already fast for farmers. But for her, it's far from enough. She can't stay at Sister Cao's house for two more months, right? She's not that thick-skinned.

So she has to speed up to make money.

At the beginning, because she had no money and restrictions, she only made two kinds of cakes, red bean cake and chicken cake, which are simple and delicious. Although these two kinds of cakes are very popular with customers, if they only sell these two kinds for a long time, there will be some problems. Many people are tired of eating, and they will lose the freshness, and many people do not like to eat these two kinds of cakes. Therefore, the types of pastries she sells need to be appropriately increased to give customers more choices, so that the total amount sold will increase, and naturally more money will be earned.

Li Hehua thought about it in his heart and decided to temporarily add two kinds of pastries: hawthorn cake and lotus seed paste. These two kinds of cakes are easy to make and delicious, and the raw materials are easy to obtain, which is very suitable for her to sell now.

In addition to increasing the variety of pastries, Li Hehua also thought of a way to ask others to sell them for him. Her strength is limited by herself, and she can only sell in one place every day, but the town is so big, not everyone will come to the place where she sells cakes, and many people have not seen her cakes. If one more person helps her, she can sell it in two places, and the market penetration rate of her cakes will greatly increase, and she will naturally earn more than before.

As for who to ask for help, Li Hehua currently only knows the elder sister Cao's family, so the first thing she thinks of is to ask elder sister Cao to help her sell it, which can be regarded as a repayment for her kindness.

In addition to working in the fields when the farming is busy, peasant women only do housework at home on weekdays, and they have no chance to make money. Some women can embroider some embroidery and go to town to sell the money to subsidize the family, but such Women are very rare, because the requirements for embroidery are very high, and most peasant women can sew and mend with needles, but they are not good at embroidering, so most people cannot earn this money.

Sister Cao, like most peasant women, can only do housework at home except to work in the fields. Except for occasionally going to town to sell some eggs to earn some money, she has no income. Li Hehua thought about giving this opportunity to Sister Cao, so that she could make some money. This would not only increase Sister Cao's income, but also bring convenience to herself. When she needs to go to dinner, she will not stop selling cakes. 's business.

After making up his mind, Li Hehua made two more baskets when making cakes, and then mentioned this to Cao Simei at dinner.

Cao Simei was completely bewildered by this unexpected surprise. She knew how delicious the cakes Li Hehua made, and she had seen how good her cake business was. It was a sure-fire business. She even secretly envied Li Hehua in her heart, thinking that she would do it herself. It would be great to sell pastries, so that the family doesn't have to be so tight.

Unexpectedly, Li Hehua actually asked her to help sell cakes. Although she did not make as much money as Li Hehua, she was already satisfied and could earn income every day. thing.

Cao Simei couldn't help but rejoice in her heart that she helped Li Hehua, no, good news came.

Seeing how excited the family was, Li Hehua also became happy, and said to the fourth sister Cao: "Eldest sister, help me sell it, I will give you one penny for every four pieces of cakes, if you can sell two baskets, you can get almost ten penny a day. , if you can sell more, you can get more, don't you think?"

Cao Simei has seen Li Hehua sell it, and she naturally knows that two baskets of cakes are easy to sell, which means that she can earn at least ten cents a day, so why is she still dissatisfied? You must know that when a farmer goes to the town to do hard labor in his slack, he can only get more than twenty pennies a day. As long as she sells cakes, she can easily make money, and she is satisfied.

Cao Simei didn't know how to thank you, so she took Li Hehua's hand and said, "Big sister, I don't know how to thank you. Your good sister remembers it."

Li Hehua waved his hand, "Sister, don't say that. If you want to say thank you, it should be me thanking you. You let me stay and give me food. What is my gratitude?"

Although Cao Simei's family did not expect Li Hehua's repayment when they took in Li Hehua, but now they have received such kindness from others, and they are still very happy.

Li Hehua continued to talk about her plan: "Sister, I will sell on the east side of the street in the future, you go to the west side and we will separate, so that we won't grab business. If you sell fast there, if you are not in a hurry to go home, you You can also walk around the streets and sell it, just like a businessman. Some people at home will probably come out to buy when they hear it, so that you can sell more. "

In fact, Li Hehua had thought of this idea for a long time, but because she had to come back in the afternoon to make cakes, she had no time to walk around the streets. But Sister Cao has this time, so Li Hehua came up with this idea.

This idea was very popular with Cao Simei, she patted her thigh, "Yes, yes, this method is good, many people do not go out at home, I sell it at the door, and some people will be willing to buy it." This way she can sell more and sell more The more she earns the more she earns.

Li Hehua made a decision with a smile, "Then eldest sister, we've settled on it like this. I made two more baskets today, so why don't you try it tomorrow?"

Of course Simei Cao agreed and nodded excitedly, "Okay, okay, tomorrow I'll go to town to sell with you."

That night, Cao Simei was so excited that she couldn't fall asleep. She tossed and turned on the bed, and He Da couldn't sleep because of her, "What are you doing? Are you still asleep?"

Cao Simei turned around and faced He Da lying down with excitement and excitement, "Head of the house, I will be able to make money tomorrow, I'm so happy."

In fact, He Daxin was also happy inside, and said: "This lotus girl is a good one. She has a way to make money and wants to draw us. You can use snacks in the future to help her sell it."

Cao Simei beat He Da lightly, "It's up to you to say, I'll definitely sell it well."

He Da knew that Li Hehua was divorced, so he couldn't help but wonder, "I think this lotus girl is very good except for her fatness. She has good craftsmanship, can make money, and is a good person, so why was she suspended? ?"

Cao Simei didn't know either, so she guessed, "It's probably because she's too fat. Men don't like their ugly daughter-in-law, so they must be looking for someone who looks good."

He Da didn't know what to say, so he sighed.

It was quiet for a long time, just when He Da thought Cao Simei was asleep, she suddenly said again, "No, it's a pity that such a good woman is divorced, I want to pay attention to Sister Lotus, if there are good people, Tell her about it, but you can't let her delay. You also pay attention to it, and tell me if you have something good."

He Da nodded and said "um".
