Chapter 200 The Best Sister-in-law 8
Qian Xiu Lian had no intention of sharing the meat with others. Her three sons were so happy that their mouths were cracking with joy that they were dividing the family property, but she still hadn't vented the anger in her heart.
Cheng Shouyi would not say anything. His wife has always been the one making the decisions on family matters, and Nan Xi was only concerned with eating meat, so she would not speak for her two brothers.
It was the eldest sister-in-law Zhou Lanxin who advocated that the original owner be married far away. Of course, her own two daughters did not marry well either, and the eldest and second daughters were equally miserable.
After dinner, Nan Xi stood in the yard feeding the chickens. The chickens had been distributed, so Qian Xiu Lian bought eight more chicks, which were now being taken care of by two old hens.
Nan Xi mixed the spiritual spring water with millet and fed it to the chicks, so that the chicks could grow up quickly and would not get sick.
Big girl and second girl came in from outside. Big girl had just gone to wash clothes, and second girl was cutting grass for pigs. The two came back together.
Seeing Nan Xi, the girl smiled and took out a handful of sour dates from her pocket.
"Aunt, these are for you. I just picked them from the sour jujube tree by the river. These are particularly red and should be ripe."
Nan Xi looked at the two sisters. Why were they still trying to please her now that they had separated?
Sure enough, the door of the main room opened, and Zhou Lanxin ran out, snatched the sour dates and handed them to Cheng Baogen.
"You two are so stupid. Why don't you give wild fruits to your brother? If your aunt wants to eat them now, can't she pick them herself?"
The eldest girl lowered her head and did not dare to refute, fearing that her mother would continue to scold her. She quickly carried the wooden bucket to dry the clothes.
Erniu also quickly put the pig grass into the pigsty. They would feed the pigs together and divide the meat after the New Year.
Although Nan Xi didn't really want to eat sour jujubes, she was very angry seeing Zhou Lanxin like this. She ran into the kitchen and brought out a bowl of meat.
"Big girl, second girl, come and eat meat."
The eldest and second girls looked at each other and swallowed. They looked at Zhou Lanxin, not knowing whether they should eat it.
Zhou Lanxin's eyes widened. Such a big bowl of meat was given to two girls?
She walked forward with a smile and tried to take the bowl, "Little sister, just give me the meat, I'll heat it up and give it to them later."
Nan Xi dodged and said, "Sister-in-law, I didn't say this was for your family. I just saw that the eldest and second daughters were so thin, so I wanted to give them some supplements."
Zhou Lanxin kept winking at her two daughters: Come over and eat, hide a few pieces and bring them back...
The eldest and second girls came over and waited for Nan Xi to divide the meat. They didn't dare to disobey their mother. If they didn't, their mother would be very fierce...
Nan Xi picked up the meat with chopsticks and said, "Open your mouth wide."
"what……"
Nan Xi threw a piece of meat in, and the girl quickly closed her mouth to prevent her saliva from falling.
Erniu followed suit, opened her mouth wide, and ate a piece of braised pork. The meat melted in her mouth with a light sip, and both of them looked very enjoyable.
Zhou Lan was extremely anxious. These two girls were so heartless that they only cared about eating and didn't even notice that their mother and brother were standing by their side.
Cheng Baogen cried out "Wow", he was really greedy, he didn't want to eat sour dates, he only wanted to eat meat.
Zhou Lanxin slapped her son's butt twice and said, "What are you eating? It's your aunt's meat. You can give it to anyone you want. Who told your aunt not to like you?"
Nan Xi glanced at them and ignored them.
After the eldest and second girls finished eating, Nan Xi picked up some braised pork and fed them. After she finished the whole bowl of meat, she stopped and watched the two swallow the last bite of braised pork. Then she carried the empty bowl back to the kitchen.
Before leaving, she winked at the girl and told her to run quickly.
The eldest girl understood instantly. She pulled the second girl up, picked up the backpack and ran towards the door quickly.
"Mom, let's go pick wild vegetables."
Zhou Lan wanted to catch her two daughters and beat them up to vent her anger, but she only saw their backs. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but she had no choice but to drag the crying Cheng Baogen back to the room.
Cheng Yue leaned on the windowsill and watched. She also wanted to eat meat, but unfortunately she had offended her aunt-in-law so much that she would definitely not give her any.
Cheng Yue looked at the simple room and decided to leave the Cheng family. She wanted to go to the city to make money. When she became rich, she would buy lots of meat and not give a single piece of meat to her sister-in-law.
Cheng Yue frowned, her eyes scanning back and forth in the simple house, thinking over and over in her mind how to change the current predicament.
To escape poverty, one must find a stable source of income.
She thought of the special snacks of her hometown, the delicious food that could be tasted in the streets and alleys, and her mother's excellent cooking skills.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind: why not combine these advantages and teach her parents to start a food business together?
Cheng Yue became excited, this plan was feasible.
By evening, the family returned from working in the fields.
Cheng Yue immediately went up to him with a hint of excitement on her face: "Mom and Dad, Big Brother, I have a good idea to make money."
Cheng Geng wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked doubtfully, "Yue'er, what do you think now?"
Cheng Yue pulled her parents to sit down and said seriously: "Mom's cooking skills are so good, I think we can make snacks and sell them ourselves."
Wu Sumei looked worried after hearing this: "Yue'er, this idea sounds good, but how can we afford to buy ingredients and tools? Besides, we know nothing about doing business."
Cheng Yue was well prepared, and she patiently explained: "We can start small, buy some simple ingredients, it won't cost much, and we only need some simple tools.
As for business, I can learn slowly, and if we work together, we will succeed."
Cheng Geng pondered for a moment and raised his concerns: "Even if we start making it, what if we can't sell it? Our family can't afford to go through this again."
Cheng Yue responded confidently: "Dad, we can make a small amount first and sell it. If everyone likes it, word of mouth will spread and business will come naturally.
Besides, I heard that all kinds of snacks are very popular in the market in the city, we can go there and try them.”
After some discussion, seeing Cheng Yue's confidence, Cheng Geng also felt that it might be feasible. In the end, he agreed to Cheng Yue's plan. Cheng Wencai and Cheng Wude naturally also supported Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue held her parents' hands tightly, her heart filled with excitement: "Mom and Dad, if we work together as a family, we will definitely make this family better!"
?
Early in the morning, before daybreak, Cheng Yue had already started to get busy.
She woke up her parents and together they prepared the ingredients and tools needed to make pancakes.
Wu Sumei took out her treasured flour and eggs, while Cheng Geng checked whether the pancake pan was intact. Cheng Yue carefully made a list of items to bring.
Cheng Wencai was at home looking after the house and taking care of his younger brother. He patted his chest and made a promise.
"Don't worry, Dad and Mom, I will take good care of my brother. You should also be careful in the city."
After giving the instructions, Cheng Yue, his parents and their equipment set off for the city.
Along the way, Cheng Geng and Wu Sumei were very nervous, after all, this was the first time for them to do business.
