Not to mention Xu Wu and his wife, even Xu Yin did not expect to try the oven-fired biscuits for the first time and get such a good response. It can only be said that there are too few delicacies in this era.
"Dad, Mom, did you see it? So this biscuit business will definitely start."
Only then did Ma Chunfang recover from the shock of the sesame cakes: "I haven't settled the accounts with you two yet! Why did you spend 20,000 yuan without telling me? Who asked you to buy a house? No one else would buy it, only our family would. , is our family being taken advantage of?"
Xu Yin ate sesame cakes and asked instead: "Mom, have you figured it out when you go back this time? Uncle doesn't want to open a shop and do business at all, does he? He owes a lot of debt, and he doesn't want to pay it back, and he also wants to cheat him out of it. With the only 20,000 yuan our family has, why don’t we go to Macau to gamble?”
Ma Chunfang's expression instantly became a little unnatural: "Well, your uncle really knew he was wrong this time, so..."
"So I didn't lie to you about my uncle, right?" Xu Yin slowly finished off a sesame seed cake, wiped off the sesame seeds on her hands, took a sip of water and said, "In the same way, I have no reason to lie to you about the housing reform. . If you don’t believe it, just wait and see, the factory will send out a notice soon.”
Ma Chunfang looked at Xu's father and then at her daughter: "Where did you hear this?"
"Don't ask anymore, I have my own gossip."
"..."
"Daughter-in-law, my daughter heard this from the workers of another factory. I also asked Xiao He, the factory manager, and he said that the pilot documents for housing reform have indeed been issued a long time ago. The factory leaders don't know how to start this with the majority of workers. I have been delaying the announcement because I want to wait for the official document to come out. It can be seen that this policy will be implemented sooner or later, and the house we live in will need to spend money to buy it sooner or later."
Ma Chunfang opened her mouth. She was about to say that there was no need to buy it as soon as she got the money. It wouldn't be too late to wait until the official notice comes out! Isn’t everyone like this?
Then she thought, if she didn't buy a house with 20,000 yuan, she would definitely convince the man to lend the 20,000 yuan to her brother to pay off his gambling debt. Then when the official notification comes, the family will not be able to afford the money to buy a house.
Urging my brother to pay back the money? This possibility is not even possible.
Therefore, the high probability is to move out of Tongzi Building.
But where to move? Nowadays, many factories are laying off employees, and laid-off workers are pouring onto the streets one after another. If they can't find a job and their last month's salary is spent, a family of three will have to pack up and leave. They are not even qualified to settle in this city... …
After more than ten years of hard work, it all came to nothing, and Ma Chunfang broke out in a cold sweat.
"Daughter-in-law? Wife-in-law? Why are you sweating so much? I'm going to take out the fan."
"No, I'll just wash my face."
"Eat that sesame cake. Don't you like sweets? This one is stuffed with sesame and white sugar."
Ma Chunfang was stuffed with a sesame seed cake by the man, and then she remembered that she hadn't asked about the sesame seed cakes yet. She raised her head and looked at her daughter: "Have you hired a sesame seed pancake master outside?"
"..."
Xu Yin was confused: "Who said that?"
"That's what Zhou Jiao's mother next door said."
"..."
On second thought, this saves her explanation.
Then he nodded and admitted readily: "Yes! But he didn't officially become a disciple. He just taught me a few words orally."
Can you make such delicious sesame cakes with just a few verbal instructions?
Ma Chunfang felt a bit proud in her heart: As expected of her, although she is not good at reading, she is quite smart!
When Xu Wu saw that his wife's face improved a lot, he brought up the plan of opening a stall to sell sesame cakes tomorrow: "Daughter-in-law, I think it is no problem for my daughter to open a sesame cake stall with her skills. Let's try it first tomorrow. If the business is good, it will also save money. I’m looking for a job, selling sesame cakes is not a bad idea, it makes money and is comfortable, what do you think?”
Ma Chunfang frowned: "No matter how good my daughter's craftsmanship is, who can still buy sesame cakes for breakfast every day? Whether the business will be good or not is not certain."
Xu Yin decided: "Try it! Try it and you won't suffer! Try it and you won't be fooled! If the business is good, keep doing it. If it's not good, then think about other things."
Couple: "..."
I said you were fat and you still breathed!
Finding a living seems easy.
Since he decided to open a sesame cake stall from tomorrow, Xu's father took the purchase list listed by Xu Yin to buy flour, suet, spring onions and other ingredients.
The pretzels I tried to make today would be more fragrant if I sprinkled some chopped green onions in them.
After Xu's father went out, Ma Chunfang thought of her younger brother and said, "Your dad said that two rooms cost 19,000 yuan. Isn't there still 1,000 yuan left? After excluding the cost of the sesame cake stall, what's left? Are you borrowing your uncle's help to deal with an emergency? Otherwise, your uncle should blame me for not keeping my word."
Xu Yin glanced at her: "Mom, do you really want to help him?"
"What are you talking about? Of course I really want to help him. He is my only brother and your only uncle."
"Then you shouldn't lend him money. For someone addicted to gambling, lending him money is actually harming him."
"Is there such a thing?" Ma Chunfang was stunned, "Then how can I help?"
"Push him to work! Carrying bricks at the construction site, washing dishes in the restaurant... let him do whatever work makes him tired. If he doesn't do it, he won't be given food. At the end of the day, I don't believe he still has extra energy to gamble."
"..."
Ma Chunfang twitched her lips: "Your aunt and I have thought of the method you mentioned before, but it was of no use. He didn't listen to us and we found him a job at a construction site in the town, and he slipped back in less than half a day. "
"That's because the method you used is wrong. Next time you ask him to come to me, I promise to convince him."
"..."
Ma Chunfang was dubious.
What's more, even if you can convince your younger brother to work and earn money, what will happen to the gambling debts you owed?
"The creditor pressed hard, and if he refused to pay back before the end of the month, he chopped off his hand."
"Isn't that great? From now on, we can no longer bet on the subjective objective."
"..."
Although Ma Chunfang had cursed her brother to have his hands chopped off when he was extremely angry, she still felt a little uncomfortable when her daughter said this.
"He is your uncle after all..."
Xu Yin also had to prepare materials for the stall tomorrow and had no time to chat with her: "There are still a few days before the end of the month. Let's set up the stall first. Then I will go to my grandma's house to pick up my younger brother and help my uncle by the way." Settling gambling debts."
Although Ma Chunfang doesn't think her daughter is really capable of settling her brother's gambling debts, her family really can't come up with money now, and she can't help her brother if she wants to. It's better to follow her daughter's advice and prop up the sesame seed stall first and wait until the business stabilizes. Find a way for your brother.
Each person ate two sesame seed cakes in the morning, and when he was still not hungry at noon, Ma Chunfang ordered a handful of noodles and the family of three ate together without going to the canteen to buy food. Therefore, I didn't know that all the employees in the factory were nagging my family about selling sesame seeds after they were laid off.
People who have eaten Xu Yin brand sesame cakes think that this business is a good one because it is really delicious. There are several layers of puff pastry, and the salty and sweet taste can satisfy everyone's taste buds.
Those who have never tried it think that no matter how delicious it is, it is just a sesame seed cake and will not turn into dragon meat. Take a look at the staff canteen. How many people bought sesame seed cakes in the morning? Don’t lose money when the time comes when you can’t make any money.
