"Old Xu, I won't agree to what you said. Our roast duck shop, from renting the shop to purchasing those utensils, to finding a master to learn skills, and ordered thirty ducks from the Zhou family. We've seen it It will open after the Qingming Festival. How can you give up at this critical moment? I won’t agree! I will never agree! ”
On the bed, Yang Huamei fed the four jin in her arms, and expressed her opinions to Xu Yuanming in a stressful tone.
"You have already handed over the errands on the tea garden. You have pushed the matter at the roast duck shop. What do we eat and drink?"
"Mei'er, I know everything you said." Xu Yuanming walked slowly back and forth in front of the bed, continuing to stroke the daughter in her arms three pounds of back.
"I didn't want to give up, but wanted to delay the opening time."
"You also know that recently, all three children have become sick, and the clinic has already closed the account, especially our daughter, who is even weak. After this wave, I guess it would not work without two taels of silver!"
"It's the end of the month, and I have to pay for Sister Hua and Sister Guihua. This is not the expense of our whole family's food and drink."
"Old Xu, Sister Hua and Sister Guihua are both old acquaintances. We can discuss with them that the wages will be delayed until the payment will be paid next month? When we open next month, we will make money, will we have an investment?" br>
In order to plan this roast duck shop, Yang Huamei and Xu Yuanming spent almost all the money they had on hand. Half of the living expenses in the past month were subsidized by Tan.
There is no way, the rent at the roast duck shop is a bit expensive, and it is the kind of deposit one and three.
After the beginning of spring, the three children actually had illness intermittently before, and the money they spent in was also in the plan.
Especially this time, the three children had a stomachache together, and they had to take medicine and moxibustion every day, and applied various plasters, which cost a lot.
When these unplanned expenses are added, the original budget that is tied up one after another begins to struggle. Once there are too many things to eat money in the first place, in the end, poverty and weakness will be lost and want to achieve the original shop opening plan. It's getting more and more difficult.
After thinking about it, Xu Yuanming didn't want to borrow money from the Old Yang family, and the only breakthrough he thought of was to get the deposit from the roast duck from the Zhou family back to deal with the medical money of the three children in the family.
"Mei'er, don't worry, listen to me and tell you in detail, that's what I think..."
"Let's get the deposit back there first, so it will be easier for the clinic. You won't have to hold your third child to apply plaster and say good things to keep your account. It's because of your parents' Yang family. I'm going to hold the account for us, but this is not a glorious thing."
"So, let's use the money to treat the children, and we are confident!"
Yang Huamei looked at the three children beside them and was silent for a while, "But what do you say about the wages for Sister Hua and Sister Guihua at the end of the month? It really doesn't work. I'll say a few nice things to them and delay?"
< br>
"No!" Xu Yuanming interrupted Yang Huamei, "Sister Hua and Sister Guihua's situation at their respective families is not much better than us. The wages we originally paid were not high, how can we continue to owe you?"
"If you don't owe you, where can we get the money to start a wage? We have to have a meal too!"
Xu Yuanming said: "Don't panic. During these days every year, many wealthy families pay to make their own tea and spend money to ask the master to do it at home. I can take on this job."
"In addition, I can also take time to go to the county wharf to unload ten days and half a month of work. If it goes well, I can not only earn the wages of the two of them before the end of the month, but also save the duck's deposit. By mid-April, our roast duck shop will be almost open! ”
Yang Huamei spent half a bowl of tea to absorb Xu Yuanming's words and hesitated, "Listen, it seems okay."
Without disturbing others, while protecting the face of your husband and wife, it seems to be the only best way to overcome difficulties and overcome them.
"But I'm worried that such a heavy work will make you exhausted." Yang Huamei raised her head and looked at Xu Yuanming, "Although we are not old, I am in my thirties and you are in my forties, but we are not young at all. , if you are exhausted, it will be even more difficult for us..."
If Old Xu is exhausted, not only will the money-making process be broken again, but he will suffer physical injuries and he will also have to pay for it... It will be even more difficult for the roast duck shop to open!
Xu Yuanming understood Yang Huamei's concerns, and he gave her a reassuring smile.
"Mei'er, don't think too much. I know what I know, there won't be any accident!"
He glanced at the little girl who was already asleep in his arms, "For you and the children, I'm fine, I'm motivated!"
"Old Xu, I feel very relieved when you say this. I didn't find the wrong person." Yang Huamei looked up at Xu Yuanming, moved by his responsibility, and her eyes were red, "But, I want to help you too, but I When I arrived in the town, I was a waste. I had no fields to grow vegetables, raise chickens and ducks, and I had to spend money to buy anything. I couldn't get any needlework, and the needlework shops in the town could not get a job to supplement my family's income. I, I am A waste, nothing can help..."
Yang Huamei became more and more annoyed as she spoke. She regretted that she was lazy when she was a girl at her parents' home. She was obviously so good at needlework, so why didn't she learn it?
I heard that I went to the needlework shop to get a job and helped embroider a handkerchief, and I could get a salary of two cents.
If you take shoes and embroidery or something, it will be the eye of the shopkeeper, and you can get a pair of shoes worth ten cents.
But I am a waste that even my son can't earn, and I can only rely on Lao Xu to support me...
Xu Yuanming came to the bed and gently touched Yang Huamei's head with one hand: "You are at home, taking good care of your three children and taking good care of yourself, and you will do my best!"
"Supporting a family is what a man should do."
"If I really say shame, I should be ashamed."
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
"I married you, but I can't give you a better life. The food expenses for the past half month are still supplemented by my mother-in-law. I'm sorry for you..."
"Old Xu, don't say that either. I don't feel wronged, but I feel at ease!"
"Just be down-to-earth, don't be afraid, you can definitely overcome the difficulties! Believe me!"
"Well, I believe in you!"
"The little girl is asleep, put it on the bed?"
"Give it to me, I'll put it next to me..."
...
"Aunt, uncle, are you in the house?"
Outside the house, Yang Ruoqing's voice suddenly came.
Soon, the door of the house opened, Xu Yuanming took the lead in leaving the house, and Yang Huamei followed closely behind.
"Qing'er? Tang'er? Why are you free to come here?"
"We'll come back from the county town and come and see you."
"Welcome, come and have tea in the main hall..." (End of this chapter)
