Woman 30: I regained my life after divorce

"Haha, okay~ I'll bring it to you."

Zhou Sen packed up his stall and went to the auntie who was selling candied haws next door and bought a bag of them, fearing that they would not be enough for two people.

Not many were sold today, and this bag of candied haws cost him dozens of dollars. Zhou Sen felt very distressed.

But in order to make Zhou Xinyao and the others happy, he returned home with a smile on his face.

"Candied Haws are coming~"

After Zhou Sen entered the room, he held the bag of colorful candied haws above his head and shouted with a smile on his face.

"Wow~ Her brother, you bought so much? That's really generous of you!"

Wei Qianqian couldn't wait to take the bag and lowered her head to search for it.

"Sister Qianqian, it seems that we can't eat hawthorn, I remember~", Zhou Xinyao reminded.

"You definitely can't eat it, you have a baby in your belly. I don't care, you're not breastfeeding."

Wei Qianqian said as she took a string of candied hawthorns and took a big bite.

With a crunch, the crispy sugar coating was bitten open, and a rich hawthorn flavor hit the taste buds directly.

"This is the taste. I love it so much. I didn't eat it for a year in order to have a baby."

Wei Qianqian chewed two pieces before she felt satisfied. Then she picked up a candied haws made of strawberries and handed it to Zhou Xinyao.

"Zhou Min, come and eat too~"

"Thank you, Sister Qianqian~"

"Her brother, just do it yourself. I don't know what you like."

Wei Qianqian said with a smile.

"You guys eat it, I don't really like sweets."

Zhou Sen huddled in the corner of the coffee table, looking unhappy.

Wei Qianqian glanced at Zhou Sen and asked, "Her brother, is the sales not good? Why is he so unhappy?"

Zhou Sen sighed, "It's not selling well. Maybe I went to the wrong place."

"Where have you been?" Wei Qianqian continued to ask.

"I went to the morning market first, then to the construction site entrance, and finally to the subway entrance where I have been setting up a stall until now."

After Zhou Sen finished speaking, he lowered his head.

"Heh~ I can tell from the first glance that you're not in the right place. The morning market is full of old men and women, who are you going to sell this to? It's even worse at the entrance to a construction site, where people are just trying to fill their stomachs, and you're not meeting their expectations."

"Yeah~ So I'm wondering where is the best place to go?" Zhou Sen lowered his head and thought.

"By the way, I saw a self-service stall at the entrance of the construction site today. It costs 10 yuan per person and it's very popular. I was wondering if we should also set up one?"

"You want to have one too? Do you know how tiring it is? It's hard-earned money. For the old, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant women like us, we can't afford it," Wei Qianqian said with a smile.

"Then what can I do? I really want to make money. My arm won't heal for at least a year or so. Do I have to wait a year or so?"

Zhou Sen choked up as he spoke. He was really afraid that he would not be able to make money, and that he would need too much money in the future, and that this little money would not be enough.

"Brother, let's sell braised food. I'll make it during the day and you sell it at night. How about we go to the night market or the entrance of the university town, where they should sell better," Zhou Xinyao said.

"Zhou Min's suggestion is good. Her brother, just listen to Zhou Min and give it a try. Besides, the Chinese New Year is still more than a month away, so you can wait until after the New Year to get busy."

"New Year's Eve?"

Zhou Sen chuckled. In his memory, the Spring Festival was just an ordinary day. Without family reunion, even during the Spring Festival, he would be lonely.

In order not to disappoint Zhou Xinyao and Wei Qianqian, Zhou Sen forced a smile and said, "Then I'll listen to you two. Starting tomorrow, we'll prepare the food during the day and I'll sell it at night."

"No, you rest during the day and I'll prepare the food. You'll have to work harder at night. How about we divide the work and cooperate with each other?"

Zhou Xinyao asked with a smile.

Zhou Sen knew Zhou Xinyao's good intentions and replied with a smile: "That's fine too."

The next morning, Zhou Sen bought ingredients from the farmers' market and started to prepare.

Zhou Xinyao pushed Zhou Sen out of the kitchen and cleaned up the mess by herself.

In the evening, Zhou Sen would take the boxes of delicious food to the nearby night market and university town to sell.

The situation today is much better. Although it was only one night, most of the things were sold out.

At eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, Zhou Sen came back with an empty schoolbag.

As soon as Zhou Sen entered the door, Zhou Xinyao rushed over and took the schoolbag he took off.

"Brother, you are finally back. Come into the house and warm up for a while. I feel that you are full of cold air."

Zhou Sen rubbed his almost frozen hands and said with a smile: "Although the weather is very cold, I am not cold at all in my heart, because I sold very well today!"

"Look~ there are only two boxes left."

Zhou Sen took out the only two boxes left in his schoolbag.

"What's left? Is there the tripe that I like?" Wei Qianqian walked over with a smirk on her face.

"One box is braised chicken feet, the other box is duck gizzards, and the tripe was sold out a long time ago. It is the fastest-selling one," Zhou Sen said with a smile.

"Humph, you don't even know to leave some for others. I'm ignoring you."

Wei Qianqian glanced at Zhou Sen pretending to be angry, turned around and left, taking the box of duck gizzards with her before leaving.

"Zhou Min, your chicken feet are a bit too simple. You can try making pickled pepper chicken feet, lemon chicken feet, etc., so that they can be sold more widely."

"Thank you for the reminder, Sister Qianqian. I will try it slowly. I am in the exploratory stage now."

"We've already made so much money in the exploratory phase, so we'll definitely make more money in the future."

Zhou Sen took a pen and wrote on a scrap paper: I received 415 yuan from WeChat today and 260 yuan from Alipay, a total of more than 600 yuan. After deducting the 320 yuan for buying vegetables, and then deducting the water, electricity, seasonings, etc., there should be half left!

Zhou Xinyao felt very relieved when she heard that the item was sold for so much money.

"I made so much money on the first day, and I will definitely make more in the future."

"Well, I will buy two more kilograms of tripe tomorrow, one is to make more money from selling it, and the other is to prepare some for Sister Qianqian."

While eating, Wei Qianqian said, "Then why don't you buy some more duck gizzards? I've fallen in love with eating duck gizzards again, what should I do?"

Zhou Xinyao couldn't help laughing.

"Zhou Min, you're still laughing! It looks like my weight-loss plan is going to fail. It's all your fault. You cooked it so deliciously," Wei Qianqian said coquettishly.

"Then you don't need to lose weight, just accompany me to gain weight together."

"You are just a little bad guy~"

Wei Qianqian reached out and scratched the itchy spots on Zhou Xinyao's body.

The two of them laughed heartily.

The next day, Zhou Sen bought more ingredients, and the sales were also unusually good. He went out at six in the evening and they were sold out before ten.

"Wow! You're back early today," Wei Qianqian shouted in surprise.

Zhou Sen said with a smile: "Haha, they are all sold out today. Luckily I left some for you before I left, otherwise you would have nothing to eat."

"How much did it sell for today?"

"I just estimated it on the way back, and it's probably close to a thousand yuan."
