Li Yuan had read a book and knew that the heroine who was a must-have in farming novels was very good at cooking. When she just said she wanted to make cakes to sell, she pretended not to know anything.
So after she drank the water in the bowl, she continued: "As for what you said about making money, I'm also thinking about it. I have some money at the moment, and I'm thinking about renting a place in the county to set up a stall. I don't know what you're going to do specifically. How do you like cooking, how about we sell noodles together?"
"Set up a stall? How about buying some bowls, chopsticks, tables and chairs? In addition, we also need to find a place to put these things. Otherwise, we have to transport them back and forth morning and evening, and we need oxcarts, which will be troublesome."
Li Yuan analyzed with her: "As long as you are good at craftsmanship, setting up a stall to sell food will definitely make more money than making food at home and selling it in the county. I must buy some bowls and chopsticks! As for the tables and chairs, I will ask someone, Does anyone have any old ones that need to be disposed of? If so, we can just buy some and bring them back."
When Wang Can heard that he wanted to buy used ones, he said: "Old tables and chairs are fine. If they are broken, you can repair them yourself. This way you can save a lot of money."
Li Yuan nodded: "That's the reason. Maybe three or four old tables are not as expensive as a new one. As for where to put these household items, don't worry. Junzi's friend Xie Yanzhi lives in the county town. We can ask if we can put him there. Go home."
"When we get busy here, Daya and Erya can stay at my grandmother's house, or they can go to Brother Xie's house. Then I will just send something over every now and then."
Wang Can felt relieved after hearing her arrangements.
"Sister Yuan, I'm a decent cook and good at rolling noodles. How about you drink chicken soup at noon and I'll show you my skills at night? If you think it's suitable, then let's do it together. But I'm only one person and have no capital. All I have is strength. When the time comes and the stall is really going to be built, can I do three and you can do seven? Otherwise, I can do two and you can do eight."
In Wang Can's view, people are willing to take her in, even if they give her a few cents a day.
She just thought she was going out to work!
Li Yuan thought about it carefully and then said: "Can Niang, do you think this is possible? You will live here this winter, and I will provide you with food and accommodation. In addition, when setting up a stall to do business, no matter how windy or cold it is, Yu, no, I should say that I can’t leave the stall, I will give you three hundred yuan every month, what do you think?"
Wang Can knew that setting up a stall to do business would most likely only be done for a month and a half.
After the snowstorm is over, it will take another ten days or so, and business in the county will gradually resume in the middle of the twelfth lunar month.
If she took Li Yuan three hundred cents every month, she would feel ashamed.
People didn't know that there would be a disaster next, but she knew.
She couldn't accept this money without conscience.
"Sister Yuan, there is no need for three hundred coins. According to what you said, I am eating and living for you, so how can I ask for so much? Otherwise, I will work for you, and we will set up a stall for a day. If you give me eight cents, I won’t use it if I don’t work.”
Li Yuan thought to herself, this girl is really sincere if she doesn't take advantage of her.
Sure enough, the heroine is basically very kind, and she is indeed the girl she admired when she first watched it.
"In this way, whether you set up a stall or not, as long as you live in this house, I will take care of your food and drink, and you don't have to pay. If you go out to set up a stall, I will give you ten cents a day. If the business is good, I will pay you again at the end of the year. I’ll make you some new clothes from some cloth, and I’ll also wrap you up with a generous amount of lucky money.”
Wang Can was very moved after hearing this. She felt that it was not easy for Li Yuan. She only had a little money and had to raise a child. She felt pity for her and kept her by her side while promising so much.
She is so kind, no wonder the sisters Da Ya and Er Ya are also so kind.
She was clearly a stepmother in her previous life, but because she only spent a short time with the sisters, she had no feelings for them.
When they were cursed and beaten by that evil woman Liu, she could only think of ways to protect them, but it didn't help much.
However, in this way, when the two sisters saw that she was not eating or drinking, they could secretly save rations from their mouths and feed them to her.
After Daya was sold and she was unable to stop him, Erya followed her like a little tail all day long.
When she was escaping, she was thirsty and hungry. There were times when she couldn't hold on any longer and wished she could close her eyes. Erya, who was still young, encouraged her and told her not to fall asleep...
Thinking of the scenes in his previous life, Wang Can's nose felt sour and his eyes were swollen.
"Sister Yuan, I will listen to you. Don't worry, I won't let you lose money!"
When I was escaping from famine in my previous life, there were many people along the way, and many of them were good at cooking.
Those people get together and discuss how to handle fresh ingredients and how to prepare each dish.
Even down to every step in detail, as well as the heat requirements, etc., she remembered them all clearly.
She has never tried it in her life. When she gets the chance, she will give it a try.
She didn't ask for wealth, she just wanted to have enough food and clothing, and then stay by her two children's side and watch them grow up safely.
In the county town, Li Jun did not go back at noon, but was eating at Xie Yanzhi's house with his two children and Yang Gaowu.
Although Xie Yanzhi was unlucky, his life was good when his parents were alive.
The house is a slightly larger courtyard, with an area of about 400 square meters in today's terms.
It is divided into the main room, the east wing and the west wing.
The kitchen is located in the east wing near the door, and the dining hall is where guests are received in the main room.
In addition to a guest room, the west wing also has a woodshed.
This house has a large yard and a well, but there is no special thatched house.
Gongtong is used for emergencies. Every morning, someone comes to collect the night incense.
At this time, the Xie family, which used to be deserted, became lively because of their two children.
Their meals were all sent by the restaurant where Xie Yanzhi usually ate.
Xie Yanzhi was a careful person and knew that Li Jun had already obtained Li Yuan's marriage certificate, changed the names of his two children, and registered them in household registration, so he said so.
"Junzi, since your sister has returned home with her child, and you are going to be a escort with Wuzi the day after tomorrow, things at home must be arranged. Once you leave, you will be laid off for a month, and it will be after the winter months when you come back. Your house hasn’t been repaired in how many years?”
Li Jun, who had just swallowed a piece of braised pork, looked up at him.
"Brother Xie, you also know that my sister's matter happened unexpectedly. The matter of escorting the escort has been decided long ago, and the time cannot be changed. The roof of my house must be repaired. When the time comes, I will find someone to do it. I will ask my cousins later Just keep an eye on it. On your side, I need your help with something."
"Well, tell me!"
"You also saw my sister and two children. They don't have any clothes. It's getting colder and colder. Don't you have access to cheap cotton here? You can find a way to leave twenty kilograms for me. Money I’ll give it to you when I get back.”
"Twenty pounds? Why do you need so much?"
"One winter quilt, three people cover it, make it bigger and use eight pounds of cotton. Even if the mattress underneath is a straw mat, it still needs two pounds to make a thin bed. In addition, the two children and my sister can't make it." I have to buy two replacement outfits.”
"In addition, there is a girl in my family. She sleeps on a wooden bed now and takes care of my sister for me. I can't leave her behind. After all, two quilts, eight clothes, and twenty pounds may not be enough."
