The happy little days of the Ye family

With the previous experience, adult men in the county went to clean up the river.

Father Ye and Ye Donglin had known for a long time that the business of the grocery store and braised meat shop would be booming when these people came back from doing corvée service.

The men in the town came back from doing corvées and were somewhat short-changed, so they needed to eat something good to replenish their health.

In addition, this time the corvee was paid twenty cents a day, and with money on hand, it was even more important to eat well.

Before the money in these people's hands was spent, the father and son wanted to go back and open a shop as soon as possible.

If it's too late, all the money will go into other people's pockets.

On the day when the long-term workers came back to work, Ye's father and Ye Donglin went back to the town early in the morning to open their business.

These people who were serving as corvees came back the day before yesterday. Father Ye and Ye Donglin felt that it was a little late to open a shop now.

Father Ye and Mr. Ye cooked pig food early in the morning. After feeding the pigs, he hurriedly drove the donkey cart to the town to buy meat and returned to the braised pork shop to make braised pork.

The vegetables in the small vegetable garden have just been planted. In the morning, Ye Donglin dug several baskets of wild vegetables in the small back mountain.

Ye Donglin picked a basket full of toon, water celery, shepherd's purse and wild onions.

After picking wild vegetables, Ye Donglin also went to the pond to catch several large buckets of fish.

When Ye Donglin came to the grocery store with wild vegetables and fish, the braised pork shop nearby was already open.

At this time, Father Ye was inside dealing with pig waste and pig heads.

No one nearby knew that Ye's two shops were open for business, and Ye Donglin's grocery store was a little deserted.

But Ye Donglin is not worried at all. He will wait for Ye's father to stew the braised pork later, and the aroma will float in the nearby alley.

Everyone knew that their Ye family's grocery store and butcher shop were open.

As Ye Donglin expected, when the smell of braised pork from the braised pork shop spread in the alley, several women shopping for vegetables came to the grocery store.

A lot of wild vegetables, fresh fish, various kinds of bacon, dried mushrooms and bamboo shoots were sold.

The smell of braised pork on the street is getting stronger and stronger. Before the braised pork is ready, there are already customers waiting to buy braised pork.

People on the streets nearby like to come to Ye’s father’s braised pork shop to buy braised vegetables, braised eggs, braised pork and other cheap braised meats to eat as dishes or to drink with wine.

Father Ye has not been here to sell braised pork in the past few months. Many people nearby are thinking about the braised pork made by Father Ye.

Father Ye came here a little late today. It was troublesome to clean up the pig's head and the water, so he only took half of the pig's head and half of the water.

However, Ye took several kilograms of ribs, and also braised a large pot of braised eggs and a large pot of braised vegetables.

It seems that there are fewer types than usual, but the quantity is much more than a year ago.

There were also many people coming over to eat braised pork rice at noon, and Ye's father was very busy.

Both the grocery store and the braised meat shop were doing pretty well, with people coming and going throughout the day. Ye's father and Ye Donglin were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.

After closing the door in the evening, Ye's father and Ye Donglin couldn't wait to count the coins.

Father Ye's Braised Pork Shop made nearly 400 yuan today, half more than usual.

Ye Donglin's grocery store sold a lot of bacon and dry goods today, as well as a lot of grain.

The items sold were relatively complicated. Ye Donglin roughly estimated that he should be able to earn about [-] Wen.

The bulk is bacon and grain. Bacon is highly profitable, while grain is large in quantity. Today, one day is equal to the profit of three or four days.

Father Ye and Ye Donglin were in a very good mood, humming little songs all the way back.

As soon as the father and son entered the house, Mr. Ye came back pulling the cart.

There were several baskets of pigweed on the cart, as well as several baskets of fresh bamboo shoots and two barrels of fish.

Ye Donglin was very happy to see Mr. Ye come back from digging bamboo shoots. During the day, many people asked if there were any bamboo shoots.

Father Ye moved the pigweed off the cart and found that there were two fat ducks inside.

Mr. Ye smiled and said: "I guess the braised pork shop's business is good, and you should be able to use these two ducks."

"The old man is really good at predicting things. These two ducks are so fat that they will be marinated in the evening." Father Ye said with a smile while holding the ducks.

There was no time to prepare today, so Father Ye did not make spicy duck products. Unexpectedly, many people wanted to buy spicy duck products.

After dinner, Father Ye boiled a large pot of hot water and then carried two fat ducks to the backyard.

Father Ye quickly removed the feathers of two plump ducks, and then deftly dismantled the necks, heads, legs, claws and wings of the two ducks.

In addition, Father Ye also shaved off the meat from the duck.

There was no way, there wasn't enough duck to sell, so I had to make the duck rack spicy.

The shaved duck meat can be made into original braised duck meat. Although the taste is average, it is still meat after all, and the price is affordable, so some people still buy it.

It’s just that not many people buy braised duck meat. If we kill three ducks, we won’t be able to sell all the duck meat.

The shop's business was good yesterday, and Ye's father and Ye Donglin got up early.

Ye Donglin was still having breakfast when Yang Feng came over with several baskets of wild vegetables.

Mr. Ye saw that there were no vegetables to sell in his small vegetable garden. It would be a pity not to sell these wild vegetables from the mountains.

So I gave Yang Feng 100 Wen and asked him to work hard this month. He got up half an hour early every day to help pick toon and dig wild vegetables.

There are many Chinese toon trees beside the stream in Xiaohou Mountain. Chinese toon buds are expensive, so Yang Feng specially picked two baskets of Chinese toon and one basket each of other wild vegetables.

After breakfast, Ye Donglin went out in high spirits with a donkey cart full of things.

Passing by Ye Dazhuang's house, Ye Donglin specially asked for three plates of soft tofu.

Ye Dazhuang's tofu is delicious and affordable. Many people were asking about it yesterday. Ye Donglin specially got an extra plate today.

Ye Donglin's grocery store opened late yesterday, and many people had already bought vegetables.

Before the door opened today, there were several familiar aunts waiting for Ye Donglin at the door.

These women basically go out to buy groceries every one or two days.

The Ye's grocery store can be said to be right at the doorstep of their home, and the prices are not expensive, and the fish and vegetables are fresh. These women like to come to the Ye's grocery store to buy food.

When you buy vegetables, you will definitely need food. If you are short of other things at home, you will bring them at the grocery store.

In this way, the business of the grocery store gradually improved.

The braised pork shop has a richer variety today, and more people come to buy braised pork.

After class, many teenagers studying in the academy came to the braised pork shop in twos and threes to buy spicy duck products.

People here have light tastes and don't really like Ye's spicy braised pork.

However, young people like to hunt for novelties. There are many scholars in the academy who like to eat Father Ye's spicy duck product.

Every time after class, you can always meet a few young people who have just finished class at the braised pork shop.

Father Ye is a shrewd person. Every time these scholars buy duck products from Father Ye, he will mention the grocery store next door intentionally or unintentionally.

Ye Donglin will also introduce the braised pork shop next door to people who come to the grocery store.

The father and son help each other and introduce clients to each other.

Until the summer harvest, the business of the braised meat shop and the grocery store was always good, and the father and son were smiling every day.

But the happiest person was Mrs. Ye. No matter how much money the father and son made, they would still have to pay half of the money to her.
