Qin Shouye opened the second letter and took it out together with the letter paper, along with one or two pieces of silver and two pairs of silver earrings:
"Mum..." Qin Shouye looked at Qin's mother.
The people in the room were also surprised. Mother Qin felt the weight when she held the letter just now. She thought that there might be silver in it, but she was surprised when she saw the silver earrings. She hurriedly asked, "Look at what's written in the letter?"
Qin Shouye read: "...Sister-in-law also said that with these two pieces of silver, let us buy some food to nourish our body, and these two pairs of earrings are for you and grandma."
Yang Haiyan has been with Qin Fang these days, and she already understands Qin Fang's character. In fact, there are quite a few men, who are not greedy for their daughter-in-law's private money. But it's different with a man who doesn't care about five thousand taels. Therefore, Yang Haiyan is indeed very satisfied with Qin Fang. Besides, from the novel, Qin Fang's good character is also described in the very few strokes.
Moreover, during the conversation with Qin Fang, Yang Haiyan also learned a little about Qin's grandmother and Qin's mother. Although Qin Fang's description of his relatives is colorful, but throughout the ages, many mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problems have one thing in common, that is, the mother-in-law is worried that her son will forget his mother after marrying a daughter-in-law and Yang Haiyan will prepare two additional pairs of earrings, naturally to please Qin's mother. It doesn't matter whether she succeeds or not, as long as they likes it.
Besides, Qin Fang knows how to save private rooms and considers his own small family. Naturally, he is not that kind of stupid and filial person, so Yang Haiyan is not worried.
Mother Qin listened to her son's content in the letter and looked at the earrings in her hand, and was indeed very satisfied. She have to admit that the daughter-in-law who has studied is different. If it was said that she was satisfied with her daughter-in-law before because of the greeting ceremony and her daughter-in-law's reading and literacy, now she is even more satisfied. She's not afraid of her daughter-in-law's height, but she was afraid the daughter-in-law will put on airs.
Although the letter did not say that Yang Haiyan used to be a girl from a big family, but even a girl from a big family, in the eyes of these rural people, it is not the same. It is also their high profile to let their son marry her.
Mother Qin weight the earrings in her hand. Each pair weighed about half a tael, plus a couple of taels of silver and three taels in front and she sent five taels all at once. Mother Qin was also worried that her son and daughter-in-law would at loss.
After a while, Mother Qin went to Grandma Qin.
When Grandma Qin saw the earrings, she thought the same thing as Mother Qin: "In my whole life, I never wore silver earrings when I was a daughter-in-law, and I never wore silver earrings when I was a daughter-in-law. Well, this is still the blessing of the eldest grandson, Ah Fang's daughter-in-law is well married."
Mother Qin smiled: "your luck is still to come. When Ah Fang has a child, you will be great-grandma and you can still to hold it."
Grandma Qin thought about it and then smiled: "Speaking of which, I chose you back then, but now A Fang has a good daughter-in-law and it is our Qin family's blessing. Tie Niu and A Fang are both eldest sons and eldest grandchildren, if they don't marry the right daughter-in-law , that would be troublesome."
Looking at other people's homes, and then at her own, Grandma Qin felt that she had good eyesight and chose the daughter-in-law of Qin's mother.
Qin's mother: "Mom, I blushed when you praised me."
Grandma Qin laughed and scolded: "you have a thick skin, who doesn't don't know. Speaking of which, although A Fang's daughter-in-law was referred by the court, A Fang is the eldest son and eldest grandson of our Qin family and we should prepare a lot, but They are outside and can't follow common rituals. What should we do about this.?"
Mother Qin: "I just want to discuss this matter with you."
...
Yang Haiyan naturally didn't know about the Qin family's affairs. At this time, Yang Haiyan had already devoted herself to the dim sum shop.
Yang Haiyan's dim sum shop is called Delicious Dim Sum, where Aunt Fan and Uncle Hong live. In order to make snacks easier, Yang Haiyan also went to buy two ewes that had given birth to lambs, because the ewes would have goat milk only after they had given birth to lambs.
The dim sum shop will be open the day after tomorrow. In the past two days, we have to make some durable snacks, such as small cakes and small biscuits. At present, there are three people in the store. Uncle Hong is responsible for the safety of the store, but as a man, he is usually in the backyard, because women customers usually come to the dim sum shop, so as to avoid conflicts between men and women, which will affect the reputation of women customers. At the same time, the child of Uncle Hong's family is also taken care of by Uncle Hong.
As for Aunt Hong, she and Aunt Fan entertain guests together.
As for Aunt Fan, when Qin Fang put the night shift, Aunt Fan lived in the family room of the military house, so that Yang Haiyan had company at night, and it was much safer. If Qin Fang was on the day shift, he would come back at night and Aunt Fan would live in the downtown yard.
At the same time, Aunt Fan would go shopping for food every morning and when the food was ready, she would give it to Uncle Hong and Aunt Hong .
Downtown yard
The ovens here are set up. There are three ovens in total. Yang Haiyan taught Aunt Fan and Aunt Hong for two days. They can make small cakes, small biscuits and small round milk tea, mung bean cake, red bean cake and soybean cake. . Different from small cakes and biscuits, mung bean cake, red bean cake and soy bean cake are pirated versions of pumpkin cake. These must be made fresh and they are delicious when they are warm.
A burst of fragrance came from the yard. Aunt Fan and Aunt Hong put the small cakes and biscuits they had made into a round basket. The round basket was about to be placed on the counter, but it was only five centimeters high and covered with a white cloth to see the clean and clear at a glance.
Yang Haiyan: "Leave these and get ready to sell the day after tomorrow. Aunt Hong, go get a basket, put the remaining small cakes and biscuits in the basket, and then go to a crowded place on the street to distribute, each person a small cookie , a piece of small cake, and tell them while diving it that our delicious snack shop will open the day after tomorrow, four small biscuits for a penny, or two small cakes for a penny."
Yang Haiyan calculated that a pound of flour can make 200 small biscuits, which means it can be sold for 50 cents and the profit is 35 cents.
And a pound of small cakes cost 100 yuan, two yuan a penny, 50 yuan can be sold, and 30 yuan can be earned after removing the capital.
Soybean cake, mung bean cake, and red bean cake can be made 30 pieces per pound of flour, 2 cents a piece, and you can earn 30 cents after removing the cost.
Although not much money. Moreover, whether it is biscuits or cakes, she adds butter bought on the platform, which is very fragrant.
That is to say, even if Aunt Fan and Uncle Hong spread the recipe out one day, they wouldn't be able to make the authentic taste of cookies and cakes because they didn't have butter. And the butter was brought by Yang Haiyan in the passerby merchant . So,no one knew how the butter was prepared, but it was fragrant.
Aunt Hong: "Ma'am, if we go to the streets to do publicity like this, do we prepare more dim sum? In case there are too many customers the day after tomorrow, there won't be enough to sell."
Aunt Fan also thinks it makes sense and this is durable, so it's okay to have a little more.
Yang Haiyan: "No. These are enough. Except for the opening day, prepare 2 catties of biscuits, 2 catties of cakes, 2 catties of soybean cakes, mung bean cakes, and red bean cakes every day and then 20 cups of milk tea is enough." If they sell out, the daily gross profit will be 350 cents and there will be 10 taels of silver a month.
Although Aunt Fan and Aunt Hong didn't understand, of course they would not object to what the master said.
Aunt Hong went out with a basket containing cakes and cookies. It was the afternoon, and there were not many people on the street, but Aunt Hong walked by and attracted many people to stop because the cakes and biscuits that had just been baked were so fragrant, whether it was the smell of milk or butter, they were all delicious. Mouthwateringly food fragrance.
Aunt Hong saw that there were some people here, so she stopped and shouted the advertisement: "My fellow villagers, don't miss it when you pass by. The delicious dim sum shop will open the day after tomorrow. Today, please try it for free." , so there is no dignity for her to let go. Not to mention doing ads?
"Free tasting? Really?"
"Do you really want money?"
"I want to taste, give me one."
"I also want..."
According to Yang Haiyan's instructions, Aunt Hong said, "The Delicious Snack Shop will open the day after tomorrow, four small biscuits for one penny." She added, "The Delicious Snack Shop will open the day after tomorrow and it will cost you a penny ."
Although it is said that a basket of small cakes and cookies is only two pounds, it will be divided quickly. After the small cakes and cookies were distributed, Aunt Hong went back. Back in the yard, she saw that her was awake and Uncle Hong was feeding the baby goat milk. Aunt Hong and Aunt Fan have prepared goat milk because they are studying snacks in the past two days. After the goat milk is boiled for three times to disinfect and remove bacteria, the wife will ask Aunt Hong to feed her son a small bowl. She is not in good health and her milk has long stopped.
The child has been drinking goat milk for a few days and child seems to be in a lot of energy.
For this, Aunt Hong is very grateful. She even offered to give the lady money, but the lady didn't ask for it.
To Yang Haiyan, it is just a small bowl of goat milk, worthless, but it can buy people's hearts.
Uncle Hong: "I'm back? How about the propaganda that Madam said?"
Aunt Hong: "The small cakes and biscuits have been distributed and some people want a second or third time when they see it. I remember some faces but they're some ,I don't remember."
Yang Haiyan came out of the kitchen: "It's alright, I'll give it if I give it." This is unavoidable, "Tomorrow everyone will have a day off, and the day after tomorrow, Aunt Hong and Aunt Fan will get up early to make cakes."
"Yes."
In the evening, Aunt Fan made fish head tofu soup, shredded potatoes, stir-fried vegetables with mushrooms, and braised pork ribs. According to Yang Haiyan's instructions, Aunt Fan packed some of these dishes, and she took them to the downtown yard to eat with Uncle Hong and his wife. She usually eats faster because she has to go back to the family home to clean up. However, eating there is more comfortable than eating here.
Aunt Fan returned to the downtown yard. Before Qin Fang came back, Yang Haiyan made Qin Fang a padded jacket in the study because it was already cold at the end of September, especially at the border gate. It was extremely cold in winter. Hearing the movement outside, she walked out and took a look, startled: "What's going on? Why is there so much blood on your body?"
Seeing that her face was pale, Qin Fang hurriedly explained: "it's not my blood, it's the wild boar. I came back with Brother Lu today and saw a wild boar rushing down the mountain on the way, so we solved it, the wild boar is still next door. In the yard."
There are mountains on the way from the town to the barracks, but under normal circumstances, these wild game will not go down the mountain, and he don't know what happened today.
When Yang Haiyan was reading the novel, it was not written in the novel so she didn't know it. Now, after listening to Qin Fang, she realized that the ancient times were different from the modern times and the modern wild animals lived in a specific life environment and ancient wild animals are not protected: "Is there game on this mountain? Such a large one?"
Qin Fang: "It's always been there, but in recent years they've rarely come down the mountain. When we have nothing to do on weekdays so we will bring people to hunt game."
Because of the need to deal with wild boars, both families ate this meal very quickly. Yang Haiyan only had a good meal here and Aunt Fan came.
Yang Haiyan: "Aunt Fan, you came at the right time, we have to deal with the wild boar today."
Aunt Fan heard: "Where is the wild boar?"
Yang Haiyan: "It's next door to Sister Lu's house."
When Aunt Fan saw the wild boar, she was a little stunned: "Such a big wild boar?" This wild boar weighs five or six hundred catties at least and ordinary hunters can't catch it. "Is this what the master beat?"
Yang Haiyan: "It was Xianggong and Lu Baifu who fought together."
When Qin Fang heard it, he couldn't help but say, "I can fight alone."
Yang Haiyan couldn't help but smile: "I know, my husband is the most powerful."
Qin Fang blushed inexplicably: "I'm serious."
Yang Haiyan continued to smile and said, "I know I know, but Xianggong, even if you can fight, I hope you will put your safety first, otherwise I will be sad if you get hurt."
Qin Fang's face turned even redder: "I see."
Seeing this, Aunt Fang couldn't help but think, Madam is so powerful that she holds master tightly. The woman in front of men should be like this. Men are ice, women are water, and water melts ice.
