The Little First Grand Secretary in My House

As soon as the sky was light, Xue Tingyan woke up.

He opened his eyes and the room was dark.

Kang was messed up, and I don’t know when the two’s quilts were stirred together. It was no longer the same as before when he got up in the morning. Xue Tingyan thought about it, it seemed that he was sleeping too hot at night, and he lifted the quilt.

It seems that both people are the same.

She was very close to herself, her sleep was unsightly, her right leg straddled her leg, the person was skewed, and only half of the pillow was on the pillow, and the other half was hanging on the kang.

Still sleeping soundly, Xue Tingyan rarely saw such a look like Zhao’er. At this time, looking at the past, she found that this kind of Zhao’er was a little cute.

He couldn’t help but leaned a little over there, so close she could feel her slight breath. I can see it more clearly. She has a thin coat and a big red string hanging on her thin white neck.

He continued to lean over there, but his head dropped to her cheek before he approached. After a long while, he slowly raised his head, and his lips drew a meandering straight line on her face.

“Stroke.”

The grunt rolled in his throat a few times before finally swallowing. He lay down next to her face, trying to restrain his breath, not wanting to wake her.

When Xue Tingyan woke up again, it was already dawn.

No one was around, and the children were not in the house. He sat up suddenly, dressed in clothes, panicking inexplicably.

Just under the Kang, suddenly the door was pushed open, Zhaoer walked in and looked normal: “Wake up? You slept so deeply, but I left you breakfast.”

He followed her and walked out of the door. Today the sun is good and dazzling. Dahei was lying under the eaves and wagging his tail. When he saw him coming out, he got close to his leg.

Xue Tingyan slowly brushed his teeth with willow branches dipped in salt, and washed his face again.

Zhaoer has brought out breakfast.

It is white-faced steamed buns and Baogu porridge.

Xue Tingyan took a sip after taking it, took the buns, and sat on the little lazi under the eaves before eating.

“Then you eat, I’ll take a look at the vegetable garden.”

He didn’t say anything, still thinking about what she would look like when she woke up, how could he fall asleep.

The Sun family stood outside and looked out, only to see Zhaoer went behind, and then came out of the house.

“Dog, just get up.”

“Four aunts.”

“It’s not hard work in the school, why do I look at you as if you are thinner?”

“Are you there?” Xue Tingyan subconsciously bit his bun in his mouth and stroked his face with his free hand.

She sighed and said, “You too are children, don’t be too harsh on yourself, just learn slowly.”

Sun rarely spoke to him in this tone, which made Xue Tingyan a little unaccustomed. Thinking about exactly what she wanted to do, Sun went straight to the topic.

“Dog, Aunt Si wants to discuss something with you. You see your uncle walks through the streets every day, he wears a few pairs of shoes every month, but he can’t earn much money. I hear you The fourth uncle said that Zhao’er is doing a good job in buying and selling now, so he wants Zhao’er to take some of your fourth uncle. Think about it, cheaper outsiders are better than cheaper family members, we are relatives after all … “

Sun’s nervous, licking his lips: “Of course, in addition to being good for our family, it is also for you and Zhao’er. Zhao’er is a big girl’s house after all, Jiang Wu is a big brother who is not yet married, two people It ’s always going in and out together. It ’s a little bit bad. It ’s different with your uncle. ”

Xue Tingyan’s eyes flickered and asked: “Four aunts didn’t go to Zhao’er and said that the business wasn’t done by me, and I couldn’t be home.”

“Why can’t you be a home ?! You are the pillar of the second room, the man at home. You must listen when you talk. The four aunts admit that they are a bit selfish, but it’s also for you and Zhaoer. Terrible without knowing what people say. “

As he was saying, Zhaoer suddenly came out of the back of the house and asked, “Who is terrible?”

Sun didn’t expect that Zhao’er would listen to it and smiled a little awkwardly. She also wanted to support me, but Xue Tingyan said: “Zhao’er, Auntie Si wants you to do business with the fourth uncle.”

“Doing business?” Zhao’er looked at Sun’s, and his mouth twitched.

The Sun family was very embarrassed, and was also taken aback by the recruits.

Okay, she admits that she is encouraging her nephew to come forward and let her take her home for business. But since the mouth was opened, the Suns did not intend to give up halfway. She thought about it all night last night, and still did not want to give up this opportunity. No one thinks that money is in the hands, and she can earn a few dollars by farming. She also wants to send Mao Eggs to study. How much money is spent studying, Xue Juncai is the best example.

She repeated what she had said before, and then stared at Zhao’er closely.

Zhao’er’s face was very serious. Sun thought that he wouldn’t be afraid that this could not be achieved. It didn’t go smoothly at the beginning. However, Zhao’er nodded and said, “OK, wait until noon comes back from the ground at noon, you Let him come to me. “

Although Zhao’er was a junior, he was still an elder, but Sun’s nodded like garlic, but he didn’t think Zhao Er said it was wrong to ask Xue Qinghuai to come to her.

Zhaoer got up early in the morning and chopped the trotters he bought yesterday.

Take the stewed pork braised first, boil the water, remove the blood foam above it with water, put the sugar in the oil pan and fry the sugar into syrup with a small fire, stir fry the lower pancakes, add wine and soy sauce to color, then put onion **** garlic Wait for the condiment to stir fry a few times, add water over the hoof and simmer.

She also stewed the bones of pork legs that she picked out. Before braising, she smashed the bones apart, throwing a few pieces of **** and spring onions, and then put two star anise cinnamon.

Stew in a clay pot, fragrant!

Both of these dishes are time-consuming, so Zhao’er poke the stove’s fire into a small fire and leave it there.

When it was almost noon, Zhaoer went to the kitchen and fried two vegetarian dishes.

She still delivered some to the main room as she did yesterday.

Not much, just enough to eat old couple. Zhao’er is not a person who complains by virtue, but after all, he still eats at one place, and he doesn’t live apart. When the junior opens a small stove, it’s always unreasonable not to give it to the elder.

The meals were all set on the Kang table. Zhaoer had long seen Xue Qinghuai coming back, and he was in the house with Sun Shiguan. She greeted the Suns through the window, and soon Xue Qinghuai cleaned up.

As soon as people entered the house, they hadn’t mentioned it when they were talking about it. Xue Qinghuai had a few words with Sun in the house before. It wasn’t Zhao Er who was still waiting here. I’m afraid it’s not over yet.

“Sit uncle, let’s eat first and talk while eating.”

“Six Uncles have a face to eat your family’s meals, don’t listen to your aunt, she can’t get out of this person’s eyes.”

“Let’s sit down and eat first. Could my dog ​​and my uncle stay with me for a meal?”

Seeing this, Xue Qinghuai could only sit down on Kang.

The whole Xue Jiaruo discusses the best work on the stove, it should also be a stroke. The Xue family recognized it as good, especially in cooking, but Zhao Er rarely cooks.

Zhaoer also prepared wine, Xue Qinghuai braised the soft and rotten hoof with chopsticks, and then sipped the wine, only to say: “Zhao’er hoof is authentic, crisp and not fat.”

Zhaoer smiled, and also gave Xue Tingyan a chopstick to let him eat more, which was originally done to supplement his body.

“In that case, your four uncles did not blend in. They looked at their nephews and nieces to make some money to make a deal, and they kicked in with love. What is this called? Do n’t care about your four aunts, her women. His hair is long and his knowledge is short, he likes to intervene indiscriminately. “

Zhaoer’s mouth smiled and listened to Xue Qinghuai said, until she didn’t say anything, she said: “Actually, Uncle, I promised that this is really not a hindrance, but I have some other ideas, but only by me and Jiang Wu, the manpower is not enough. You also know the origin of my business, the money is very easy to make, but it can’t be done for a long time. When I was running around in the past few days, I thought about it, since we can sell this kind of clothes. Earn money, can you go into the cloth and make ready-made clothes to sell around? “

“do it yourself?”

Zhaoer nodded: “After all, the clothes in the pawnshop are limited in number, but we make them differently. I have calculated the book. A common dyed cotton cloth is converted into about 300 articles at the market price, and a cloth can make about five bodies. Clothes, that is to say, clothes cost about 50 or 60. But this is the market price. In fact, if we buy more fabrics, the price will be about 30% lower than the market price. The more we enter, the cheaper the price, and The more difference we can earn from it. “

Xue Qinghuai, who is such a simple account, also counts. He estimated it in his mind and asked: “But after buying the cloth and processing it into garments, it has to be paid for, and who else to do? What size? These are all discretionary.”

Upon hearing this, Zhaoer smiled and said, “I haven’t run white outside for a while. The clothes we wear are already generous and can be worn in larger and smaller ones, as long as they are not too different. Women’s The left of the physique will not exceed a range, we can choose two suitable sizes in this range. As for the man, it is necessary to choose a few more sizes, generally this kind of buy back, even if it is big, it is not a trouble to change it by yourself. . “

“But your clothes are easy to sell because the fabrics are not ordinary goods. If they are replaced with ordinary goods, most people will not consider buying ready-made clothes, but buy cloth and go home.” This is the general poor people rarely buy The main reason for getting ready-made clothes is to buy cloth and go back to do it.

“So what we have to do is to find cheap cloth sources to win by quantity, so that our ready-made clothes must be cheaper than everyone else’s own, so that someone will buy us. I think there are too many places available for us The profit is also great, that is, all aspects of demand are calculated. As for labor, it is easier. Which woman in our village will not make clothes? Some meager wages are paid, and more people are willing to do it for us. ” I found the cloth from Xiufang before and went to find someone to make purses.

Xue Qinghuai didn’t speak again, smashing the wine in the bowl bit by bit, sinking into contemplation.

It took a long time to say: “Yes, what are you going to do? You can’t spend much money, there are still a few or two. In addition, your fourth uncle has a lot of strength and can help.”

This is what Zhao Er wants, but she has other ideas about Xue Qinghuai.

After that, she would go to each village to sell clothes every time, and she always exchanged things like food and eggs. He said again: “Fourth Uncle, you should know that I have done the job of collecting vegetables and selling them in town. In fact, I had an idea at that time. We have many rich families in this town, not to mention some restaurants. , Wine shops and the like, this kind of food shop. These places need all kinds of food, and where the food comes from, it is nothing more than the villages nearby. Of course, if you eat something rare, then you have to transport it from outside , But ordinary food in the end accounted for the majority.

“We are all villagers, knowing that it is not easy for a villager to enter a town, there is usually so much farming work, and it is not cost-effective to go to town with a single thing. I thought before, if one day I had the capital With the manpower, I would do this kind of work that collects things from various villages and sells them to towns and counties, and I will definitely make a lot of money. “

Xue Qinghuai is a layman when it comes to making ready-made clothes. It sounds a little hesitant, but it is because he does not understand and is not sure. Speaking of which, Xue Qinghuai is Menqing.

His eyes lit up immediately, and said, “Zhao’er, you said that your head is thinking, anything can make you come up with a different way. If it is made into clothes, the fourth uncle still hesitates, But if you do this, Uncle Si thinks this can be done! “

Zhaoer laughed: “Four uncles feel that they can do it too? We have too little capital in our hands now. The cost of making ready-made clothes is too large to make a small fuss. So I wanted to do this first. As for ready-made clothes, I can take it slowly. , Accumulate some capital first, and then we will come to the pen. “

Afterwards, the two of them talked about some of the supplementary details while eating, because they still lacked the most important link, so they could only call Jiang Wu at night and elaborate.

Xue Tingyan didn’t expect that he just wanted to insert a person between Zhao’er and Jiang Wu.

Sure enough, some things can’t escape his trajectory, just as he went to school, just like recruiting children in that dream to do business.

However, compared to the man in his dream, he was stubborn, domineering, sensitive, and did not know how to give in and tolerate, just blindly didn’t want Zhaoer to do business, and did not want to recruit Erer to contact Jiang Wu. She felt that doing business damaged her face and made herself Mocked by others. Now he has learned to detour and suppress, and because of different moods, he sees more clearly than the one in his dream.

Zhao’er may love wealth, but she loves more but it’s fun.

He could see the light in her eyes when she talked about it, the light that appeared most in his dream. Chan Ruo Xing Zi is gorgeous and dazzling.

He remembered the most intense quarrel between the two in the dream.

In order not to let Hong’er have a business woman, she chose to retire, but she was unhappy and unhappy. He tried hard to make her happy, and thought about whether she still thought of Jiang Wu, just in time for him to enter Beijing to take the exam, and the two left.

Since then, people have been separated forever, and that look has become her last portrait in his memory, and even became a nightmare that he can’t get rid of night after night.

Perhaps, he shouldn’t kill her happiness for the sake of worldliness, for his ridiculous self-esteem.
