He thought of the praises his mother-in-law had given Hanzhi in the past, as well as Aunt Hongmei's indirect inquiries about his four brothers. Xia Hongdou finally understood." Oh right, Hongmei has always been paying attention to Xia Zhi. If it weren't for this relationship last time, she wouldn't have allowed Hanzhi to carry out the marriage with the Shi family. Now that he thought about it, Hongmei and your mother were actually still thinking about Hanzhi. As long as he was fine, this marriage would definitely not be a problem. As for my mother…Chunfeng, if this matter succeeds, you have to give me some benefits.”
Xia Hongdou wasn't stupid. She immediately guessed that her scheming mother-in-law had ulterior motives when she said those words to her today. After all, her mother-in-law was a shrewd person. Her words often had a deeper meaning…
"This family will be ours in the future. How can Father and Mother not give it to you and me? Come, make a baby. As long as you make a baby, our mother will give you more rewards.”
After saying that, the man held the woman's leg…
On the street.
"Boss, give me a catty of braised beans and half a catty of braised pork.”Another loud shout sounded.
Aunt Liu rushed forward. "Alright, I'll cut your meat for you.”
The young man raised his eyebrows unhappily and looked at Shi Chuxue." I want the little lady to cut it for me."”He pointed at Shi Chuxue, looking like he wouldn't leave until the little lady cut him.
"You, how can you be like this!”Aunt Liu turned around angrily.
Shi Chuxue went forward with a good temper and picked out a piece of meat that was half fat. "This kind of half-fat and thin is the best. I'll pick this one for you, okay?”Her gentle voice sounded like the spring breeze. The young man nodded and his face suddenly turned red. He was sitting on a chair at the side with the peanuts in his hand, quietly waiting for her to cut the meat.
"Put it on the plate today. There are chopsticks here.”
Looking at the only plate, the man's voice moved." Thank you…" He specially prepared such a plate for me.
"Eat." Shi Chuxue smiled faintly, turned around, and went to greet the guests.
Behind her, the man had a complicated look in his eyes as he stuffed a few peanuts into his mouth.
Aunt Liu quietly sized him up again.
This young man was dressed very cleanly, but if one looked closely, one could still see that his clothes were a little short and had been washed until they were white.
"Old man, there are many wounds on this person's hands and legs.”Aunt Liu suddenly saw that when he lifted his arm up, the half of his arm that was exposed was covered in wounds. Upon closer inspection, he realized that there was actually some blood oozing out from his leg. No wonder this person was wearing a long-sleeved long robe even though the weather was very hot. Perhaps he had too many injuries on his body, so he deliberately covered them up.
"Don't make a fuss. Take care of the business." Uncle Liu lowered his voice. He was helpless about the old woman's unusual curiosity.
"No, there are so many injuries. Where did this person come from? I heard that Minister Chi's family is recruiting a kind of sparring partner. Could this person also be a sparring partner?”
She said in an extremely low voice.
Not far away, the young man suddenly spoke.
"Your guess is right, I am indeed accompanying Minister Chi's son to fight to earn some money.”
After saying that, he buried his head in the meat and peanuts, eating one mouthful at a time. Occasionally, he would drink a little wine from the pot. Every time he ate and drank, he would squint his eyes and savor the aftertaste for a long time. Looking at his intoxicated expression, Uncle Liu suspected that every time this person came to eat these things, he was probably eating the most delicious food in the world.
"Mother, look, isn't that your fourth daughter-in-law?”Outside the market, Xia Hongdou pointed at Shi Chuxue, who was still cutting meat and chatting with people.
"Look, she also smiles at men like this. Only Hanzhi can think of this.”
Ruhua rolled her eyes and curled her lips. She wanted to say that this was how business should be done.
Liu-shi glanced over coldly and saw that several people were waiting to cut the meat. Look at those people. One cut half a catty, the other cut three taels.
One catty of braised pork seemed to cost fifty copper coins per catty. That head of meat was only 15 copper coins per catty on the market. Now, he was selling it for 50 yuan! There was also the fat sausage, which was even more expensive. The price was actually 81 catties. In Liu-shi's eyes, this business of braised vegetables was completely profitable. As for the loss after cooking, as well as the cost, she directly ignored it.
"Mother, let's go over." Xia Hongdou looked at her mother's increasingly agitated expression and knew that she was also tempted by the Fourth Brother's family business.
"Wait a little longer. I have to count how much business I can make in the morning.”
Mrs. Liu watched as Shi Chuxue sold and received the money. It felt as if the money was in her own pocket.
However, when she saw Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu, she still frowned. He turned around and ran to the grocery store.
"Shopkeeper, how do you sell this flower?”
Beside her, Ruhua grabbed her arm excitedly." Mother, you bought it for me, right? Thank you, Mother."”
Madam Liu snorted coldly," You don't work, you only know how to eat and drink at home. Why do you need to wear such flowers?" Even if I buy it for Red Cloud Red Bean, I can't give it to you.”Daughters-in-law were all outsiders, and his own daughter was his biological daughter.
" Mother…" Zhou Ruhua received a critical hit of 10,000 points. However, he did not dare to get angry.
When Xia Hongdou heard that she was going to buy it for herself, she became excited. "Aha, Mother, you dote on me the most. I said I have the best mother, right? Look, your heart immediately aches for me. Mother, I like these flowers."
Liu-shi didn't even give her a word of complaint, directly trying to get close to the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, I see that the braised meat business is really good. Are they family?"
The shopkeeper thought that she was sincere in buying it, so he didn't guard against her and told her what he knew.
"No, that's the wife of the black-hearted person who chopped off the head. She seems to be working with Dongzi's parents in the yamen.”
Liu-shi frowned secretly as she listened. If it was really a cooperative business, her family would only have half of the money. Aiya, it hurts.
However, it was not a big deal. It was just cooperation. As long as the Fourth Sister's family was not stupid, she would pay the two old fogies of the Liu family and let the Xia family do the business. Wouldn't this business be all the money in her Xia family's pockets? Thinking of this, Liu-shi's spirits were lifted.
But he still asked.
"I wonder if the Liu family has ever made braised dishes before?”
"I don't think so. I heard that it seems that the little lady is the one who controls the fire. Other than that, the Liu couple only did some odd jobs. I say, auntie, which flower did you pick? Why don't you buy some more and I'll give you a discount?”
