The happiness of Zhou Cheng's New Year's gift made the whole family's good mood last until the next day.
Li Fengmei wanted to buy a TV, and Xia Xiaolan agreed. Anyway, there are large pieces of clothes that are not easy to wash, and it is not far away to take them to Grandma Yu's house for washing.
Liu Fen woke up very early in the morning.
She is going to the County No. 1 Middle School to hold a parent meeting for Xia Xiaolan. She didn't say what kind of clothes she wanted to wear. She found a clean padded jacket and her hair was neatly combed. Xia Xiaolan asked her to put some cream on her face, and she didn't forget clam oil and gloves on her hands.
"Mom, you seem to be whiter?"
Liu Fen couldn't see the change, so Li Fengmei also came to check it carefully.
"It's much whiter than in summer."
In fact, it doesn't necessarily mean how many shades the skin is really fair. Liu Fen's skin problem is not only dark, but also yellowish with insufficient blood. In the past few months, I have eaten well, and there are fewer worries. The days are getting better and better day by day. The body's blood deficiency is slowly recovering, and the yellowness has faded. Although the skin is still not white, the complexion looks good. .
The skin tone is even, whether it is white or not is not so important.
You can see oily meat every day, rice, noodles, meat and eggs are not lacking in a nutritionally balanced life, and sweet potato porridge with pickled vegetables all day long, half a bowl of noodles needs to drink two bowls of noodle soup, and you can only see the diet ratio of dry rice when the farming season is busy. Liu Fen is not only The yellow gas on the face is removed, the skin tone on the face becomes even, and even the hair becomes shiny.
She is not yet 40 years old, and her hair started to grow white when she was in Xia's house.
Now that I have sufficient nutrition, not only have my gray hairs not increased, but there is also a tendency to reduce them.
Xia Xiaolan was happy seeing her mother like this, "When I get back to Shangdu, I will cook you a bowl of black sesame paste every day."
Liu Fen was a little nervous, as if she was sure that she was dressed properly and that she didn't look shabby before going out. Xia Xiaolan asked her with a smile, "You really don't need to go with you? I heard that students can go too."
"No, no, you can still read for half a day at home I can do it by myself."
Liu Fen has never held a parent-teacher meeting, but she is also a person who has done the oil residue business herself, just like when she was selling oil residue, he listens to whatever the school teacher says, right?
"Then let's pack up our things at home and meet you in Anqing County at noon. We will take the bus to Shangdu together in the afternoon. Do you know Aunt Huang? Her shop is right in front of the No. 1 Middle School. If there is something difficult to do, you I asked Aunt Huang for help, and we all ate rice topped at Aunt Huang's shop at noon."
Xia Xiaolan's meticulous instructions made Li Fengmei laugh:
"Who is the mother? You are going to treat your mother like a child!"
It was only past eight o'clock when Liu Fen walked to the gate of County No. 1 Middle School.
Both Zhang Ji Snacks and Mrs. Huang¡¯s fast food have started business. Who doesn¡¯t want to rest during the Chinese New Year, but the store only needs rent, and closing the door for a day will waste a day¡¯s rent. Regardless of how many people eat on the fourth day of the first lunar month, there will always be business when the door is open. Mosquitoes No matter how small it is, it is still meat.
In the past, only Zhang Ji's family operated exclusively on this street, but now there are more Mrs. Huang's fast food companies vying for business. Anyone who takes an extra day off is watching their competitors make money. Zhang Cui was unwilling to agree, and Mrs. Huang was also unwilling. The senior three students returned to school yesterday, and both of them opened their doors yesterday.
In fact, there is still business. The first month has just started, and people in the city also have to visit relatives. Those who celebrate the Chinese New Year want to rest. They go out in the morning and have breakfast outside, and then they can go to relatives¡¯ homes. A family of three eats and drinks enough, at most 2 yuan.
If there are more children in the family, it must cost more money.
Sister-in-law Huang's fast food doesn't prepare those fancy snacks in the morning, she sells noodles, Auntie Huang's old handicraft, the bone soup that has been simmered all night on a low fire, without much seasoning, a little chopped green onion and a little salt are very fragrant. Or if you don¡¯t want to eat noodle soup, Auntie Huang also has topping noodles. There are many kinds of toppings. Customers can try one kind at a time and can eat it many times with different patterns.
People's enthusiasm for all kinds of "covering" of Mrs. Huang's fast food has not yet passed. At the beginning, there were few people, and finally opened up the situation. Now it can be evenly divided with Zhang Ji's business. The development of Mrs. Huang's fast food is too fast!
This kind of rapid development made Xia Ziyu frown.
But although she has a lot of ideas, she doesn't have much practical experience in business, and she can't think of any good way to suppress Mrs. Huang's fast food business. Do donburi instead? It is not difficult to cover rice, just pour the vegetables on the rice or noodles, but Zhang Jidu has been in business for three years. Counting from the stall, it has cultivated many old diners in Anqing County.
If Zhang Cui stopped the snacks that Zhang Cui was originally good at and changed them to rice bowls, wouldn't he lose the old customers he already had.
no.
The option of donburi can only be added to the existing types.
Xia Ziyu put Jian??Told Zhang Cui, but Zhang Cui was quite hesitant: "Stir-frying is nothing, just fry it by the way, but there are a lot of dishes to buy every day. If there are few people ordering rice bowls, there will be only leftovers "
Xia Ziyu choked, didn't she? Mrs. Huang's fast food focuses on one thing. There are many varieties of rice bowls, and there are a lot of meat dishes and vegetarian dishes. For the vegetables bought online, some vegetables are not very easy to buy in Anqing County. It is said that Mrs. Huang¡¯s family rode to the Shangdu Farmer¡¯s Market in the middle of the night to buy Just for a little side dish, does Zhang Ji want to do the same?
It takes five people to manage a snack bar.
Xia Dajun is only in charge of purchasing, her uncle Zhang Manfu is kneading the noodles, her mother Zhang Cui is in charge of seasoning, and Zhang Manfu and Zhang Manfu are in charge of frying mutton stewed noodles and so on. Aunt Jiang Lianxiang greeted the guests and charged extra money, while Xia Hongxia did odd jobs, cleaning the table and clearing away the dishes.
It seems that everyone has a job to do, and when they are busy, their hands are full of things. When there is no business, the store can be completely idle at once!
Take her father as an example, if she can take over the work of kneading the dough, there is no need to hire her uncle Zhang Manfu to work in the store, and even Jiang Lianxiang and Xia Hongxia's work overlaps. Just take it. At that time, when there was no storefront, the food stalls were run by Zhang Cui inside and out. From a stall to a store, the scale of the business expanded, and the demand for manpower became higher¡ªbut 5 people were hired to work at once. Too much?
Xia Ziyu noticed Mrs. Huang's side. There were only three people including Mrs. Huang. Mrs. Huang was in charge of cooking, and her mother-in-law picked vegetables, washed dishes and did chores. Sometimes it was her man who served the dishes and collected money, and sometimes it was her child.
Zhang Ji also has one more storefront than others, a stall that her parents can take over, her mother insists on getting her younger brother and sister-in-law, and her father is unwilling to let others get her niece, these three people have to give Money!
Leaving aside Xia Hongxia, she can buy some clothes and give her pocket money.
Zhang Manfu and Jiang Lianxiang's combined salary is 100 yuan a month. It's no wonder Xia Ziyu thinks too much, but aunt Jiang Lianxiang can do the work, including food, lodging and salary, is it worth 50 yuan a month? Some urban workers in Anqing County earn no more than 30 yuan a month. If recruiting people in the countryside, Jiang Lianxiang's position would be filled with a salary of 20 yuan, and there would be plenty of people vying for it.
Zhang Manfu worked hard kneading dough?
That's not as dirty as the boiler-burning job, which costs 36 yuan a month.
Xia Ziyu calculated in his heart, and felt very distressed. Asking uncle and aunt to help in the store cost 50 yuan more per month than other people, and 600 yuan more per year. Xia Ziyu didn't think it was a big amount, but the money would rather be used to help her uncle than to ask her if she had enough money in school, Xia Ziyu felt uncomfortable.
Zhang Cui didn't know Xia Ziyu's thoughts at all. Watching Liu Fen walk past the shop, Zhang Cui spit on the ground lightly.
Xia Ziyu gave her mother a warning, don't be too obvious, Wang Jianhua is still there.
Zhang Cui turned her head and smiled:
"Jianhua, do you want noodles or steamed buns?"
"Auntie, I can do anything, you are too polite."
In fact, Wang Jianhua wanted to leave early. He was thinking about his parents in Beidi Farm, and it was meaningless to stay here in Anqing. In the country, there are no entertainment activities, not to mention, Xia's family members speak with a heavy accent, Xia Hongxia always goes to his side, hiding in the house and not coming out, the old lady Xia knocks on the door again after a while, either delivering cakes or poached eggs.
In the county town, he and Xia Ziyu could only live in the room at the back of the store, which was very noisy during the day. He wanted to help with work, everyone objected, but if he didn't work, he couldn't hold hands and play while others were working, right? Knowing that Xia Xiaolan was studying in No. 1 County Middle School, Wang Jianhua was particularly afraid of bumping into Xia Xiaolan. The scene of Xia Xiaolan spreading her hands at the gate of Baixi Temple and asking him for money was a nightmare! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
