The retired rough man dotes on his mother

Chapter 146 How come you two are so skillful?

In the afternoon, Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng took the children to her mother's house, planning to ask her mother and sisters-in-law to make snacks. They also brought some ready-made pastries for everyone to taste.

Father Xiao and his brothers were making new furniture for Xiao Baoer, while Mother Xiao and her sisters-in-law were sewing clothes in the house, chatting and laughing. The older children went to school, while the younger ones were playing in the yard.

"Why are you here at this time, my daughter?" Xiao's mother asked her daughter with concern.

"Mom, Zhensheng and I came here to tell you and your sisters-in-law something. Did you taste the snacks that Dad and brother brought back last time?"

Xiao's mother drooled at the mention of this. The cake was really delicious. "I tried it. I heard from your brother and your father that you taught Zhensheng to make the cake. How come you two are so skillful?"

"Mom, I don't know how to do anything. It was all my wife who taught me. We brought some with us this time. Your sisters-in-law can try them. My wife has something to say," Shen Zhensheng opened the several kinds of cakes he brought and let everyone eat.

Several sisters-in-law and my mother were eating pastries, praising the two men's cooking skills while eating. The taste was much better than those sold in the town. The town only sold some glutinous rice noodles, egg cakes and the like, but no such exquisite pastries.

"Mom, I'm making snacks with my mother-in-law and my second sister-in-law to earn money. Do you and your sisters-in-law want to join us?"

My mother and several sisters-in-law have recently earned money by making clothes and experienced the joy of making money. When they heard Xiao Baoer say that they could make money by making cakes, they all wanted to agree, but they didn't know how to make it.

Xiao Baoer knew their concerns, "Mom, sister-in-law, you can do the same as my mother-in-law and the others, making chestnut cakes and water chestnut cakes. Let my brothers go to the mountains to pick chestnuts, and water chestnuts are easy to buy here. I will show you how to make it later, and you can follow me. It's very simple."

After hearing what Xiao Baoer said, several people also gained confidence and said, "Okay, we will learn from you."

When the two of them brought their children here, they came by ox cart and also brought raw materials and molds. They went into the kitchen and started making pastries.

Shen Zhensheng was outside helping to make furniture and look after the children, while Xiao Baoer was in the kitchen teaching his mother and sisters-in-law how to make pastries. His father and brothers were feeling strange as to what these people were doing in the kitchen in a mysterious way. It was not until they smelled the fragrance of freshly-baked pastries that they understood.

Mother and sisters-in-law brought out the cakes with proud smiles on their faces, "Come and try them, how do they taste?"

Several people washed their hands and came over to eat snacks, saying they were delicious.

Then Xiao's mother told a few people about her plan to take her daughter-in-law to make pastries. No one had any objection, not even Xiao's father.

His daughter always thinks about her parents' family. When she suggested making pastries, she must have thought it over carefully. She would never harm her parents' family, so he fully supports his daughter in doing anything.

Xiao Baoer directly told her the next arrangements. She asked her brothers to deliver pastries to her house once every two days, and then bring back the necessary flour, water chestnut powder and the like to continue making pastries. When they delivered the pastries the second time, they would be paid for the first batch.

Then I emphasized that the pastries must taste good, and must be made with guaranteed quality and quantity, and that our reputation must not be ruined, otherwise it would be difficult to do business with them next time.

"Little sister, are we going to make those clothes yet?" The second sister-in-law raised the issue of clothes.

"Second sister-in-law, you can make clothes if you want, but making cakes will definitely affect the speed of making clothes. I will reduce the amount of clothes for you, and you can make them when you have time."

Several people were very happy. They could earn more money this way and were not afraid of being tired. They were from the countryside and had plenty of strength. As long as they had something to do and could make money, they would be full of energy.

Xiao Baoer talked about the quantity of pastries to be made every day, and arranged for her brother to deliver a batch of pastries tomorrow afternoon to sell them once to see the market response.

I checked the flour, water chestnut powder, etc. and felt relieved that they should be enough for tomorrow.

The raw materials are basically provided by Xiao Baoer, and the price is also told to my mother and sisters-in-law. No one has any problem with it. In this way, Xiao Baoer will deduct the money for raw materials of each batch from the sale of cakes, and the remaining money will be the profit for my mother and sisters-in-law, which they will divide equally.

Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng have carefully calculated the profits from making cakes over the past few times. Excluding the raw materials such as flour and sugar, they can earn a lot from each pound of cakes. Their mother and sisters-in-law earn more than they do from making clothes.

And it’s not that I have stopped making clothes at all. Although the speed has slowed down, I am still making a lot of clothes and I make some money every month.

At night, when the brothers and sisters-in-law from several rooms were whispering in the house, they were all very happy. This little sister is really a gold nugget. She always thinks of ways to make money. Recently, life at home has been much better, and there is more money on the table.

After making arrangements in the afternoon, Shen Zhensheng and Xiao Baoer took the children back home. Xiao Baoer wanted to go downstairs for a walk, so she didn't let Uncle Zhang drive the ox cart to take them to the doorstep, and the whole family got off at the entrance of the village.

The two of them were chatting and laughing as they walked home with their child. When they arrived at the door of Li Sangou's house, they heard the voice of Li Sangou's mother scolding Liu Mengmeng from the yard.

"You little bitch, don't think that I can still let you live a good life like before after you marry into my family. You vicious woman, you even want to harm my dog. You said that my dog ​​bullied you. Why don't you say that you are shameless?"

Li Sangou's mother scolded Liu Mengmeng for a long time without repeating herself. If Liu Mengmeng dared to talk back, she asked Li Sangou to beat her. Li Sangou beat her to death. This bitch actually wanted to make him eat peanuts. What a vicious woman.

Li Sangou and Liu Mengmeng went to get their marriage certificate the day after they were caught having an affair. Liu Mengmeng didn't want to go, so Li Sangou and his mother beat and kicked her and took her to the town to get the marriage certificate.

Li Sangou tried every means to torture her these days and even beat her. Before, Li Sangou didn't go to Widow Miao's house, but these days he started to run to Widow Miao's house frequently. All the food in the house was almost taken away by him. Old Mrs. Li didn't care about Li Sangou, but only let Liu Mengmeng eat one meal a day to save food.

But these have nothing to do with Xiao Baoer. She just wants to live her life well every day, earn money for her family, and then wait for the baby in her belly to be born.

Now there are fewer clothes made at my parents' and husband's side, so we have to find suitable people to continue making clothes. Xiao Baoer is responsible for the fabrics and designs of the clothes.

Apart from the labor costs that I have to pay every time, I make a lot of money from the clothing business, and I also like designing clothes, so I have to continue the clothing business.

Then it is very important to find the right person, and it must be someone you know. Xiao Baoer must first consider her aunt and Aunt Song Yun, so she has to find time to ask them what they think.
