Chapter 1850 A Taste of Something New (Second Update)
Seeing such a heart-warming picture, Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but smile.
"Are you eating?" She made a sound and stepped into the house.
The father and daughter at the table both looked towards her, and Baobao Luo's eyes lit up.
The little hand held up the steamed bun that had been deformed by her ravages to Yang Ruoqing.
"It would be quite miserable if this little rabbit fell into your hands." She said with a smile, raised her hand to touch Baby Luo's head, and then said to Luo Fengtang: "I will feed it, and you can go and rest for a while."
Luo Fengtang said: "I'm not tired. Qing'er, please hurry up and have breakfast. Being hungry for too long is not good for your health."
Yang Ruoqing said: "Then have you eaten?"
Luo Fengtang said: "I'm not in a hurry."
Yang Ruoqing was startled, "I just got up and I don't feel hungry yet. , you have been up for so long and still haven’t eaten, your body is really in ruins.”
"Come, I'll feed him, you eat first."
She insisted on taking Baby Luo from Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang had no choice but to sit aside and eat two steamed buns as quickly as possible, and then came over to replace her.
"I'm full, now it's your turn to eat. Breakfast was sent by the restaurant chef. The chef came from another county and made a lot of special snacks from outside. You can try it. "He said.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded, sitting aside.
There are several kinds of breakfast in front of you.
Little rabbit steamed buns, custard buns, golden crab roe spring rolls, fried noodles, pan-fried pot stickers.
Pumpkin porridge, matsutake wild vegetable porridge, crispy pickled cucumbers and diced radish.
Just one look at it makes people feel very appetizing.
Yang Ruoqing picked up the chopsticks and had a full meal.
"This custard treasure is pretty good. I'll go to the kitchen later and bring two more cages back. Then we'll go home and give the family a try," she said.
Luo Fengtang nodded.
In the morning, Yang Ruoqing went to the magistrate Zou County’s house.
By the time we returned to the inn after finishing the Zou family's affairs, it was already afternoon.
The couple decided to leave together early tomorrow morning.
After reorganizing at night, we set off back to the village early the next morning.
In the morning, Yang Yongjin and Cao Bamei took Xiuxiu to send Yang Ruoqing and her family outside the restaurant.
"It's the end of the first year now, and we'll go back to the village to sweep the tombs during the Qingming Festival." Yang Yongjin said.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Okay, it will only take more than a month, almost."
Cao Bamei said: "Qing'er, we won't go back for more than a month. At home, Old people and so on, I can only rely on you to worry more.”
Yang Ruoqing smiled happily: "Don't worry, I will take care of it. Second brother has to take care of the restaurant, so you have to take care of the embroidery."
Cao Bamei nodded, "I will."
Watching the carriage of Yang Ruoqing's family of three leaving, Yang Yongjin also helped Cao Bamei back to the restaurant.
A figure stood out from a corner diagonally opposite the restaurant.
That was a young woman dressed as a village woman.
The woman was carrying a basket in her hand. There was a handful of cabbage and two eggs in the basket. She had obviously just returned from shopping for vegetables in Wa City.
"Hey, am I being blinded? Aren't those the second brother and the second sister-in-law? Why are they coming to the county seat too?"
Chen Jinhong muttered in his heart, raised his head, and saw it There are three big characters written on the door plaque above the restaurant: Tian, Xiang and Lou!
"Tianxiang Restaurant? Isn't that Qing Yatou's restaurant?"
"Why, come to the county to open a branch building, and let the second brother manage it?"
Thinking of this, Chen Jinhong became very angry.
This mentality is so biased that it has gone thousands of miles away, hum!
...At night, Yang Yongzhi closed the stall and returned to his and Chen Jinhong's small house.
"Jin Hong, let me tell you something to make sure you are happy."
After he entered the room, he excitedly came over to the bed.
Chen Jinhong lay on the bed and opened his eyes lazily.
"What a good thing? Pie in the sky?" she asked.
Yang Yongzhi shook his head: "There will be no pie in the sky, there will only be traps on the ground. I never believe in those."
"What good thing is that?" Chen Jinhong asked again.
Yang Yongzhi said: "I'm lucky today. I sold ten candied haws in one go. Here, wife, look, it's twenty cents."
Yang Yongzhi said and took out twenty cents from his body. When the money came, it was presented to Chen Jinhong with both hands.
"Daughter-in-law, didn't you say you haven't eaten meat for several days? I asked around and the pork in Wa City costs fifteen cents per catty. Tomorrow I will cut half a catty of pork and come back to make up for you. Replenish your body," he said again.
Chen Jinhong sat up and collected the twenty coins.
"Why are we eating meat? I'm not a child. Besides, our family is so poor, so we should save our money first!" she said.
Put the twenty pennies together with the five pennies from last night in a handkerchief, fold it and stuff it under the pillow.
"There is a bowl of porridge left for you in the pot. Are you hungry? Go and eat quickly." She said.
Yang Yongzhi was overjoyed and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go eat right away. After I finish eating, I'll wash the bowl."
Chen Jinhong said, "I'll wash it tomorrow morning. Come here after you finish eating. I have something to discuss with you.”
“Hey, okay, okay.”
As soon as Yang Yongzhi turned around, Chen Jinhong went to dig at the bed board.
Pull out a small purse. In the small purse, there are still two to five hundred coins left here and there.
Soon, Yang Yongzhi finished his porridge and returned to the house.
"Yongzhi, come here." Chen Jinhong waved to Yang Yongzhi.
Yang Yongzhi came to the bedside, "Daughter-in-law, what's the matter?"
Chen Jinhong's face showed deep sorrow, and she handed the purse in her hand to Yang Yongjin to see.
“These two taels, five hundred and twenty cents are our entire wealth now.”
“I only paid one month’s rent for this house. It’s so shabby. How can I pay it back in one month? Get two hundred coins.”
"We have to live a good life. Seeing that the weather is getting spring again, we can't wear this cotton-padded coat until spring and summer, right?"
"We need money to live like this, pay rent, buy clothes, eat, drink and have sex every day. .”
"Even if you sell a bunch of candied haws a day, it only costs sixty cents. After deducting the capital, you can earn up to thirty cents, but you still can't make a living!" Chen Jinhong said.
Yang Yongzhi listened carefully, with a guilty look on his face.
"Jin Hong, don't worry, I will sell candied haws in another place tomorrow day. I will go to the area in Wa City to sell while asking about the market."
"If someone wants to hire a carpenter, I will Go. I will definitely make money to support you!" he said solemnly.
Chen Jinhong snorted and said: "Do we have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse? I have thought about it. Don't sell candied haws during the day tomorrow. Go to the county dock to carry big bags."
"Carry big bags?"
"Yes, carry big bags."
"I heard from the aunt next door that you can carry big bags at the county dock as long as you have the strength. I can earn at least fifty cents in one day, and I’ll settle the bill on the same day, so I won’t be owed any wages.”
“And I’ll have a meal at noon, so I’ll be satisfied!” she said.
“Is there really such a good thing?” Yang Yongzhi also became interested.
