Of course, this idea was not mentioned to Liu Xiong and the others, and they only nodded along with what he said.
"The money from selling Ganoderma lucidum can cover the cost of a new house. I have to find ways to make money later. My mother's cooking skills are better than mine. I will study more new dishes to see if I can make money."
Liu Xiong nodded. She knew her sister. She had liked cooking since she was a child and her cooking skills were quite good. Qianqian was very pleased to have this idea. As long as he was willing to use his brains and put in his efforts, and don't just sit there and wait for nothing, life wouldn't be too bad.
Tuantuan and Tiedan couldn't understand what the adults said about ways to make money. At this moment, they kept swallowing their saliva while looking at the food on the table.
Especially Tiedan, it’s been a long time since I’ve eaten meat, and I’m going to faint from the smell of this meat.
Liu Xiong and Huang Zhenzhu, like Tiedan, have not eaten meat for a long time. During this time, they went back to Huangjia Village to attend the funeral and couldn't eat well.
In Huang Zhenzhen's family, only her eldest brother and nephew are willing to work and contribute in the fields. There are several younger brothers, all of whom are lazy and lazy. They find it too hot in summer and too cold in winter. There are several prime-age laborers in the family, but they can't save too much money. He has a lot of money, but he still has some wealth, and his life is pretty good, at least better than his family.
Seeing that the two cubs were hungry, Liu Yan hurriedly said: "Come on, let's eat quickly."
Liu Xiong and Zhu Zhen both used their chopsticks. First they tasted the braised pork, which was sweet and glutinous. It was paired with a big mouthful of rice. After swallowing it, they were so satisfied that they wanted to cry. The pickled fish was sour, spicy and refreshing, and it was an appetizer. The best thing was that dish. The red and steaming dish is called Maoxuewang. Once you take one bite, it is spicy, fragrant, juicy and full of flavor. The spicier it is, the more you want to eat it. It makes people want to eat it.
Huang Zhenzhu didn't expect that the intestines and stomach, which he would never eat on weekdays, could do this without any fishy smell.
Liu Xiong originally wanted to taste each dish and give some suggestions, but with the delicious food in front of him, he ate it with all his heart. He especially liked the Maoxuewang, and his body warmed up after eating it.
He had never been to a restaurant to eat, but when he worked for a wealthy family in the county, he had eaten leftover food from rich men, and it was incomparable to the dishes cooked by Liu Yan and Qianqian.
Liu Xiong ate two bowls of rice. He had not eaten so full for a long time. It was difficult to breathe. He touched his belly with one hand and gave Liu Yan and Nie Qianqian a thumbs up with the other hand. "This tastes better than the rich ones." The food at the master’s house is so good, but my uncle doesn’t have much knowledge, but he thinks he can make money!”
Liu Yan and Nie Qianqian looked at the delicious food they were eating and listened to Liu Xiong's words of praise, and they became more confident in making money by cooking.
Liu Yan thought to herself: Qianqian's idea of opening a restaurant is not realistic, but it is possible for her to earn some money by working as a cook in a restaurant.
Like Liu Xiong, she is a hard-working person. Qianqian and Gu Xiao have their own businesses at home, so she has to find a way to make more money for her family.
Nie Qianqian looked at Tuan Tuan and Tiedan having a full meal and poking each other's stomachs, and suddenly had a good idea, "Uncle and aunt, Tuan Tuan is more than 3 years old, and Gu Xiao will be in trouble every time in the near future. Instead of teaching him how to read and write at night, why not bring him the iron egg at night and let the two of them learn together?"
Both of them knew that Qianqian's disabled husband had some ink and was copying books in the county library. When they heard Qianqian's suggestion, they both became excited.
Huang Pearl took Qianqian's hand, "Really Qianqian? Can Tiedan really learn to read with Tuantuan?"
Nie Qianqian had just noticed the loneliness flashing in Huang Zhenzhu's eyes when Liu Xiong mentioned sending Tuan Tuan to study. This could kill two birds with one stone. It could not only find Tuan Tuan a study partner, but also fulfill the wishes of her uncle and aunt.
"Of course, the age difference between the two of them is not much, so they just happen to be companions."
Liu Xiong sighed: "The most regretful thing about my uncle's life is that he can't read. If I don't ask Tiedan to read, I won't be able to read. It's better to be able to read and not be illiterate."
After the matter was discussed, Huang Zhenzhu's attitude towards Liu Yan and Nie Qianqian became more gentle, and she looked much more cordial than when she first arrived.
Liu Xiong was an impatient person, and the weather was getting colder day by day, so he couldn't wait to build a house. After dinner, he took Nie Qianqian to study the house.
Nie Qianqian drew a sketch of the house according to her own ideas. The main room, the main room, the east and west wing rooms, the front and rear yards, and each bedroom are all equipped with floor dragons, so that they can be kept warm in winter. Liu Yan likes to cook, and the kitchen area is more than double the original size. Several warehouses were added to the backyard, and a separate cellar was dug under each warehouse for the convenience of storing things at home in the future.
Liu Xiong read the sketch and compared it in his mind. If Qianqian's house is built, it will be one of the best houses in the village.
Liu Xiong: "I will recruit people tomorrow. The autumn harvest is basically over now. Many men in the village are free, so people are not a problem. I will go to Li Zhengna for the materials. He has a vendor he knows in the county. The price is fair. The prices are fair. I bought all the materials to build the house from there, do you think it’s okay?”
Nie Qianqian has always believed that professional matters should be left to professional people, "Uncle, you know the stuff, so you can decide. In addition, uncle, you can help me build a house. You can't go to work in the county during this period. Brothers must also settle accounts clearly. This is the money you used to supervise the construction of the house. You can take it first." He took out a money bag and handed it to Liu Xiong.
No matter how good the relationship between relatives is, the accounts must be settled. Liu Xiong is helping her like this because of the friendship between relatives. But if she refuses to give money despite the conditions, it is taking advantage of the friendship. No matter how deep the friendship is, it will slowly fade away. of.
Liu Xiong waved his hands repeatedly, "How much money does it cost to build a house for my sister? Qianqian, I can't take this money."
Nie Qianqian sighed and said with a sad face, "Uncle, if this is the case, I will ask someone else to build the house, but neither of us understands the ropes, and we will inevitably be deceived."
Liu Xiong could hear his niece's little thoughts behind these words. She retreated in order to advance, so Liu Xiong had to take care of it and accept it. He sighed inwardly that his niece was becoming more and more good at talking and behaving.
Nie Qianqian said firmly, "Uncle and aunt, just keep the money."
With that said, he handed the silver money to Huang Zhenzhu. Huang Zhenzhu stepped forward and took the money bag. When she got the money bag, she immediately weighed it. The money bag must contain two taels of silver.
Her husband had not gone to work for more than half a month and could only build a house for Liu Yan's family. She thought it was reasonable to give him some compensation, but with so much money, she felt it was a bit hot.
Huang Zhenzhu hesitated, "This... this is a bit much."
Nie Qianqian: "No more, no more. There are a lot of things that require supervision when building a house. Uncle, after you find workers, the wages will be paid based on the number of days the workers are hired every day. I will leave the money with my mother in advance."
After talking about building a house, Qianqian washed some fruits, and the four of them and two treasures chatted about home affairs at home.
Huang Zhenzhen ate the juicy peaches, the refreshing and sweet taste was sweet to her heart, thinking that this is what life is like!
She always felt that Liu Yan's life was rough and her life would be over if she didn't marry well, but now she was living a life that she couldn't even imagine. Thinking about this, she felt a little sad in her heart.
It was getting late, and Liu Yan wanted to stay for the two of them to have dinner together, but Liu Xiong refused to stay for another meal, saying that he had something to do at home.
Before leaving, Nie Qianqian took out a lot of rice, noodles, meat, eggs, milk and other things from the kitchen, and forcefully gave them to the two of them to take away.
There was plenty of this thing in the space, and she didn't feel bad at all when giving it away.
Liu Xiong and Huang Zhuzhen walked towards their homes carrying large and small bags in their hands. They looked back at the old house with dim lights and couldn't help but feel a little confused.
They originally came to rescue the two women, but when they left, they felt like they were being rescued.
