Early the next morning, before dawn, Su Yue endured her sleepiness and got up, and handed over the prepared cakes to Mrs. Han, "Auntie, I made a lot of cakes last night, and today I will give Aimin one. People will probably be too busy, so if you want to let second brother Han or third brother Han help out, I will give you a total of 40% of the profits."
Seeing the five large sieves of pastries, the old lady hurriedly said: "This is too much to do, so many people who love people can't be sold in one day, I will ask the second and third to help, and I don't want you four. The profit of the success will be made according to the original 20% profit.”
Su Yue waved her hand, "That's not good, aunty, how can you get 20% of the profit when you are busy with your work
Seeing that Mrs. Han was still going to refuse, Su Yue pursed her lips and said with a warm face: "Auntie, keep the money you make, and treat Brother Han's legs later. Brother Han's legs will definitely be cured, and the money will still be spent. After that, don't hold back."
If Mrs. Han didn't know about her and Han Aiguo, she wouldn't have said this, but now Mrs. Han knows all about it, she won't be squeamish anymore. Anyway, she and the old lady have the same purpose, that is Treating Han Aiguo's legs, so she doesn't feel bad for giving the Han family more money.
After hearing Su Yue's words, the old lady Han was stunned for a while, and then looked at Su Yue's eyes, not to mention moved, she took her hand and held it tightly, her eyes were red, "Good boy, thank you. , you have this heart, the aunt will always remember that the aunt will not be polite to you. When the aunt saves enough money, she will take you Brother Han to the big hospital in the provincial capital to see his legs, and he will definitely be cured. Don't worry, even if the patriotic legs are not cured, the aunt can do it."
I'm not worried, ma'am, I'm not worried at all.
Su Yue heard the voice-over of the old lady. It seemed that the old lady was also very upset about Han Aiguo's leg treatment, and she was afraid that she would dislike Han Aiguo's leg and leave, so she wanted to try her best to reassure her.
Su Yue comforted the old lady and said, "Auntie, Brother Han's leg will definitely be cured. Let's save a little more money to take Brother Han to see his leg. If one hospital fails, we can change another one. There will always be a cure."
"Yes, yes, there is always a cure." The old lady Han was not so confident about Han Aiguo's leg treatment, but after listening to Su Yue's words, her heart was instantly firmed up a lot. I have the motivation to make money, so I hurried to tell the second Han and the third Han and the fourth to sell cakes, and explained everything to them in detail, for fear that they would make mistakes.
Han Lao Er and Han Lao San are also very active in selling cakes to make money. They promised Mrs. Han that they would sell them well. Then they put the cakes in a basket, and then covered the basket tightly with a waterproof tarpaulin. Guarantee that it won't get caught in the rain, and then put on the mino clothes and followed Han Aimin to the town.
Su Yue guessed that the pastries should be sold out today, so she went into the kitchen and continued to make the pastries to be sold tomorrow. Han Aiguo still helped to set the fire. In addition to the same pastries as today, Su Yue also made some extra cakes. Several new foods: donkey roll, dorayaki and egg yolk crisp.
By the time Su Yue was all done, it was already evening and it was getting dark, but the three brothers of the Han family did not come back.
The old lady was a little worried. She stood at the gate and looked in the direction of the village entrance. The second daughter-in-law of Han and the third daughter-in-law of Han were also confused, for fear that something would happen. I was worried that someone might be caught by speculation.
Fortunately, before the sky was completely dark, the three Han brothers finally came back.
The third daughter-in-law of Han was the first to jump up to take the backpack on the back of the third Han, and couldn't wait to ask, "How is it, is it sold out?"
Han's second daughter-in-law also stepped forward to pick up her man's backpack, "Did something happen? Aimin never came back so late."
The second Han took a sip of water from the porcelain jar, and the third Han couldn't wait to say, "It's all sold out. The three of us went to three places to sell, and they were all good. We have a cake in the back basket. Not much. We would have been able to come back when the sun went down, but Comrade Jiang from the textile factory approached us to talk to us about something, so it was delayed."
Mrs. Han has already brought the hot food to the table from the kitchen, "Eat first, you're all hungry, talk while you eat."
After a busy day, I bought two steamed buns in the town at noon to feed my stomach. I was so hungry that my chest was on my back. As soon as I sat down, I grabbed my chopsticks and snorted and started eating until my stomach was half full. The topic just now: "Comrade Jiang said that she has a relative in the city who wants to buy cakes from you, but she didn't say the specifics, just let us give you a message to Su Zhiqing, and I want to see you tomorrow and talk to you face to face. Say."
Su Yue nodded thoughtfully.
A few people quickly finished their dinner, and then they couldn't wait to take out the money they made today to report to Su Yue, and the second Han said: "Su Zhiqing, all the money you made today is here, not all money, but also There are many people who are willing to exchange tickets, and as long as it is a ticket, we estimate that it will be sold at the market price."
There is a lot of money on the table, and there are a lot of tickets. At first glance, there are food tickets, meat tickets, non-staple food tickets, and a lot of cloth tickets.
Su Yue's eyes lit up when she saw the cloth ticket, and she looked down at the clothes on her body that were so ugly that she couldn't bear to look directly, as if she saw hope.
Others didn't notice Su Yue's excitement, the second brother Han was still saying: "When we came back, we went to the grain management office to buy the flour, oil and other things that Su Zhiqing wanted. Money, five catties of food, two catties of meat, one catty of sugar, one catty of oil, and two feet of cloth. Su Zhiqing, count them and see if you’re right.”
"Thank you for your hard work." Su Yue didn't count, and directly divided 40% of the money and handed it to them, "This is the money you deserve."
The two daughters-in-law of the Han family's eyes lit up when they saw so much money, but the three brothers said to the old lady Han, "Mother, keep it."
The old lady Han glanced at the two daughters-in-law and took the money.
Su Yue pretended not to see the delicate atmosphere between the old lady and the two daughters-in-law, and divided the votes she got, and the other votes were divided 40%, but the votes were not divided, "Auntie, I think If I make a piece of clothing, I will have the shame of not giving you any points, but I will make up for you a little more on the food stamps."
The old lady said very simply: "Okay, you can take all the cloth tickets. You, a young and beautiful little girl, just want to make more beautiful clothes. If you have cloth tickets in the future, you will keep them and we won't want them until you have enough cloth. , Auntie made clothes for you, it's not that Auntie is blowing it, Auntie's craftsmanship in making clothes is very good."
Su Yue was elated when she heard it. It happened that she didn't know anything about needlework, and she was worried about what to do with cloth. Now that Aunt Han is willing to do it for her, that would be great.
I couldn't help but hugged the old lady's arm and rubbed it affectionately, "Thank you, Auntie."
Old Mrs. Han smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you, don't be polite to auntie." Anyway, it's her eldest daughter-in-law, so it's nothing to make a dress.
Han Aiguo glanced at Su Yue's arm holding his mother, and there was a flash of envy in his eyes that no one noticed.
After dividing the money and tickets, Su Yue packed her share, and the old lady also received the 40% of her own family into her pocket.
Seeing that the old lady had taken all the money and didn't give any points to her brother at all, the third daughter-in-law of Han couldn't sit still, and asked regularly, "Mother, did you take all the money you got?"
The old lady Han took the money for a while and looked up at her, "Why, what do you want to say?"
Third Han saw that his daughter-in-law was about to speak, he knew what she wanted to say after a guess, and quickly pulled her arm under the table to signal her not to talk too much, but she ignored it and said with courage, "Mother, my family loves the party and there are two more Brother and fourth brother have been running hard for a day outside, and their legs are running thin, shouldn't they have to get some hard money? Anyway, give each of them two yuan to spend."
Mrs. Han didn't answer her, but looked at Han's second daughter-in-law and asked, "Second daughter-in-law, do you mean the same thing?"
Han's second daughter-in-law was called by name and was a bit at a loss. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she hesitated for a while, then lowered her head and whispered, "Mother, we have three children, and we can't pay for anything we want to buy for our children."
That's what it means to share money.
The old lady Han's face sank, "We haven't separated yet, the fourth child has not married, and your elder brother has not married. Could it be that you want to share money even if you don't split up? How can there be such a good thing?"
The third daughter-in-law of Han said: "Mother, we don't mean to share the money, we just share pocket money. We have no money since we started a family."
Mrs. Han patted the table, "Did we eat less food or wear less clothes in our family? Your life is worse than other people's wives? Besides, the most important thing in our family right now is your eldest brother's leg injury, and your eldest brother's leg has to go to a big hospital for treatment, all of which will cost money, where can you go to see your legs after the money is distributed to you?"
When the third daughter-in-law of Han heard this, she looked at Han Aiguo's legs and muttered unhappily, "Didn't the doctor at the hospital say that the doctor's leg cannot be cured?" Is it still necessary for the whole family to earn money to fight the waste
The last sentence, the third daughter-in-law of Han, didn't dare to say it, but it was enough to make the old lady angry. The old lady scolded, "What do you mean? Don't want to waste money on your elder brother's legs?"
Before Han Laosan's wife could speak, the old lady glared at Han Lao Er and Han Lao San angrily and said, "In the past, everything in the family was earned by your eldest brother in the army, and he was reluctant to spend a cent of the money he earned. They've all been sent home. If you didn't have your big brother, would you be able to marry a wife now? You're all playing bachelors! Now that you're married, you don't want to care about your big brother? Are your hearts black!"
Third Han hurriedly gave his mother a good deal, "Mother, don't be angry, don't listen to Fangzi's nonsense, we don't mean it, elder brother's leg needs to be treated, we will earn money to treat him, mother, don't worry."
The second child of Han also agreed: "Mother, the third child is right, we don't care about the eldest brother, you take all the money, we don't want it."
Hearing the current Han Aiguo raised his head, he finally said: "Mother, take my leg slowly, but I can't spend all the money on my leg injury. My nephews and nieces are all grown up and need to be Spend, you will keep the money earned by the second and third in the future—"
"What nonsense?" Mrs. Han interrupted him, "In the beginning, you made money to raise your younger brothers and this family, can't they be married now and don't care about your eldest brother, no one talks about this matter, as long as it doesn't matter for one day The family, the money earned by the family belongs to this family, and no one wants to put it in their own pockets.”
Seeing that the old lady was so stubborn, Han Aiguo sighed, thinking about persuading her in private, and not wanting to be so unpleasant again, he said to the second child of Han and the third of Han: "You have been tired all day, go wash and sleep."
Second Youngest Han and Third Youngest Han hurriedly nodded and took their respective daughters-in-law back to the room. As for whether it was noisy or noisy when they returned to the room, it was unknown to outsiders.
Su Yue was very embarrassed at this time. She was an outsider, but she didn't want to hear about the family conflicts in the audience, which were caused by her indirectly.
Knowing that she should go back to the room after she has divided the money is better than sitting here listening to family conflicts.
Seeing Su Yue's discomfort, the old lady Han patted her hand embarrassedly and said, "I told you to see a joke."
"No, no." Su Yue didn't know what to say, so she stood up and said, "Auntie, I'll go to the town tomorrow to meet Comrade Jiang. I'll go to bed early tonight."
The old lady Han waved her hand, "Go quickly, there is hot water in the pot, you can wash it directly."
Su Yue left in a hurry, leaving the old lady and Han Aiguo and her son in the main room.
Just as Han Aiguo was about to speak, Mrs. Han stopped him, "Boss, don't persuade me, mother is not an old fool, nor is she a bad mother-in-law, mother wants all four of you brothers to have a good life. The second and third are close, now they have settled down, and now the mother wants to consider you and the fourth. The fourth is still young, don't worry, now the most important thing is you, your legs must be treated, and the Qianniang must be prepared Yes, don't say anything, just listen to your mother."
Han Aiguo knew that his mother was stubborn. Once the decision was made, no one could pull it back, and he didn't know how to persuade him at the moment.
****
Early the next morning, Su Yue packed up early. She was going to go to town with the three Han brothers today. After all, Sister Jiang would not look for her for no reason.
Who knew that when he was going out, he saw Han Aiguo also standing at the gate with a cane, looking like he was about to go out.
"Are you going out?" Su Yue was puzzled.
Han Aiguo took the things she was carrying, "I'll go with you."
Su Yue frowned, "What are you doing? You can't run back and forth with your legs, don't go, I'll be back soon."
However, Han Aiguo shook his head, "I'm going to the town to send a telegram to a friend in the city and ask him to inquire about the prescription for the leg. If I find the prescription as soon as possible, I hope my legs will get better sooner."
Su Yue was startled, she didn't expect that he was going to inquire about the recipe, but there is no recipe in the city, she made it up to deceive him, how could she possibly find out.
No way, Su Yue had no choice but to say: "That recipe is more biased, and there should be very few people who know about it. After all, the old Chinese doctor doesn't stay in a fixed place, but I have asked people I know to inquire, and I will tell me if there is any news. , you don't go, it's a tossing back and forth."
However, Han Aiguo was stubborn and insisted on going, "The more you ask, the more hope you have. I want to find the recipe as soon as possible and get the leg cured as soon as possible."
His eyes were too serious, and Su Yue knew that it was impossible to persuade him, so she had to let him go, but she was saying sorry to him in her heart, because he was destined to be unable to find out any news.
Because Han Aiguo's legs couldn't walk too much, Han Aimin went to the brigade early in the morning to borrow a mule cart, and the group went to town together.
Su Yue left behind two baskets of cakes and said to others: "Yesterday Aimin said that some people in the textile factory's courtyard wanted to buy cakes but didn't buy them. I'll take them and continue to sell them, and you can take the rest of the cakes to other places. Sell it, and when it's sold out, we'll gather here and go back together."
Everyone has no objection, and now they go to their favorite places to sell cakes.
Su Yue went straight to Sister Jiang's house.
Sister Jiang knew that Su Yue would be here today, so she deliberately transferred a shift with her colleagues for one day, and stayed at home today to wait for Su Yue.
Su Yue put the cakes on the table and cut to the chase, "Sister Jiang, what are you looking for me for?"
