Started as a mute girl? I prospered in the lean years

I heard that Qingnang Pavilion will hold free clinics every once in a while, which can not only treat people but also earn points, which is the best thing.

"You are still young. It is a good thing to improve your medical skills. My second brother will also study hard at home and strive to enter the county school as soon as possible."

Jiang Huaixu discussed with Qian Xiuzhu, his wife and Jiang Erlang on the way to escape whether doing business at home would delay Jiang Erlang's imperial examination. He learned that the Jin Dynasty was less than ten years old and still followed the old system of the previous dynasty. Even if a businessman He will no longer engage in business, and he will not be allowed to take the imperial examination for three generations.

For people like Gengdu, this is a taboo, but there is a relatively loose rule for refugees. Refugees can start a small business to support their families within one year, and it will not affect the family's children and grandchildren's studies.

That's why Jiang Huaixu was able to start the tofu and five-spice powder business with confidence. As for what to do a year later, it was Jiang Tao who suggested it.

She wanted to establish a female household on her own. She had no husband and no children, and only one child. As long as she had land under her name and did not want to remarry in the future, the tofu shop business could easily be under her name.

Qian Xiuzhu and Jiang Boliang did not respond to this for the time being. Within a year, there were many variables. If Jiang Tao regretted it, he would have time to turn around.

Jiang Tao has now bought several acres of fields and homestead with her dowry. She is just busy with the tofu shop and her brother and sister-in-law's family affairs instead of cleaning up her own home. Mother and daughter are temporarily living with her brother and sister-in-law's family.

When the two went back, Jiang Tao and Liu Ye'er were busy in the kitchen. People who went to the county town were reluctant to buy food on the street, and the dry food was dry. They cooked some food in advance and simmered it on a low fire so that they could eat it when they came back. A few warm mouthfuls.

Big pot rice doesn’t just have meat and eggs for every meal, the children can also eat some after it’s cooked.

Jiang Huaixu walked to the stove and saw that there was cabbage, minced meat and tofu soup, scrambled eggs, and sticky millet porridge.

Even though she was full, she was still a little greedy when she smelled the aroma.

"Auntie, give me a small bowl of millet porridge."

Seeing the chill all over Jiang Huaixu, Jiang Tao couldn't help but said, "Don't go out at night. It's so cold. You're not good at all. What can you do if something goes wrong from the cold?"

Liu Ye'er, who was sitting and lighting the fire, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, "Second cousin, is she not good at background?"

Why can't she see it at all?

"Isn't that true? When I first met Sister Xu as a child, she was like a kitten. If she hadn't grown teeth, she wouldn't have been a person over one year old at all."

Liu Ye'er couldn't help but laugh and said: "I used to be as thin as a kitten, but now my second cousin can carry the guy named Wang effortlessly. He is very strong!"

"It's good to be strong, but you won't be bullied when you are strong." Jiang Tao thought about the situation that night and wanted to laugh, "If you have such strength, mother won't worry about you being bullied in the future."

Jiang Huaixu took the millet porridge with pickled radish in it from his aunt, took a sip and said, "Don't worry, aunt, I taught my cousin some self-defense moves before, and I also got her a special self-defense thing. I'm sure no one will dare to do it again." Bully her."

Liu Ye'er nodded heavily and said with bright eyes: "Auntie, I practice every day. My second cousin also said that running can exercise my body. I also run every day. Don't worry."

Jiang Tao is naturally the most aware of the changes in her daughter. Before, she couldn't sleep peacefully when thinking about her daughter's future, but now she really feels at peace.

After finishing the porridge, Jiang Huaixu found Jiang Fu again and said, "Afu, do you want to go to the county Qingtan Pavilion with me? I think you like to study medicine. Follow me and read more and learn more. In time, you can become a doctor too." A doctor.”

Jiang Fu was excited from the first words she heard Jiang Huaixu say, and her heart was full of longing for the future, but after the excitement, she had to consider other things.

"Sister Rong...she is still young and can't live without me..."

Jiang Huaixu was helpless, "You are only eight years old yourself, why do you think so much? Not to mention the sisters-in-law and aunts, even the sisters-in-law and aunts in the village will take care of Sister Rong. And Rong'er always likes to follow Tianya. Just kidding, even though Tianya is young, she knows a lot, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

Jiang Fu was a little hesitant, and after thinking for a long time, she said: "I'll ask Sister Rong to see if she understands..."

"Okay, if you decide, just tell me."

"Ok!"

Early the next morning, Jiang Huaixu got on the carriage to the county seat.

After they drove away in the carriage, the three brothers of the Fan family carried poles to the tofu shop in the north.

Among those who grind tofu and spices are many members of the Fan family. The work they did was deducted from the money left over from Jiang Huaixu's collection.

"Fan Da, how has your business been these past two days?"

Fan Da grinned, "It's not as good as the business in the county, but it's not bad either. Let's learn from Uncle Jiang's family about this five-spice powder. It sells very well!"

"That's fine, that's fine. If we make more money, we can have a good New Year!"

The hearts of everyone in the Fan family swelled. Along the way, many members of their clan died. In the end, the entire team was shrouded in the shadow of death. At that time, they never imagined that they would not only find a place to stay, but also be accepted by the village chief and his party, and also have a job to make money.

There is no point in saying thank you too much, hard work is the key.

The three of them, carrying three poles of tofu and spices, walked out of the tofu shop and met Father Fan who was pushing a cart. Stoves, iron plates, firewood, etc. are placed on the cart.

They had no livestock and had no choice but to walk to Qingyuan Town, which was nearest to them.

"Dad, let's go!"

On the way, Fan Er couldn't help but ask his elder brother: "Brother, can you figure out how much money we can get at the end of the month?"

"We can only earn two to three taels of silver every day. According to this calculation, we will be given more than thirty taels of silver by the end of the month. Each family will get another point. How much can you get?"

Fan San didn't expect that his family didn't have to count every penny to make money, but only one or two. He counted on his fingers and stammered: "Can you make more than thirty or thirty thousand yuan?!"

"Isn't it?"

"Oh my God! We didn't make as much money carrying big bags at the pier in the past as we did here."

Father Fan's face was full of unconcealable joy: "Where can I compare? Jiang Zhengmao and his gang are capable. You all heard about what happened yesterday, right? We need to give you some instructions when we go back tonight. .When we make some money, let your mother find a wife for the three of you. Our family hasn’t had a happy event in a long time!"

When talking about this, Fan Er and Fan San only blushed and forgot to speak. Fan Da said: "Dad, this matter is not urgent. Let's live a good life first. We can't let a girl marry into the family and suffer hardship."

Father Fan let out a cry, and the figures of several people gradually disappeared on the path.

On the other side, Jiang Huaixu came to the county seat again amidst the shaking of the carriage.

Soon, the carriage stopped at the entrance of Qingnang Pavilion. Jiang Wei took Jiang Huaixu and asked, "Yao Mei, if I have some free time, can I come and play with you?"

"Come if you want. You'd better bring me a piece of sizzling tofu."

"Eh!"
