The son-in-law of a prosperous family

That night they lit oil lamps and stayed up late to wrap century eggs and salted duck eggs.

Seven days later, Lai Yue Lou restocked preserved eggs and salted duck eggs. Most people would buy them separately after tasting them in the restaurant, and some even came specifically to buy preserved eggs and salted duck eggs.

Preserved eggs and salted duck eggs are not expensive and most people can afford them.

In just one day, more than half of the sales were completed.

As a result, the previous order was a little too little, and Shopkeeper Xu wanted to order more.

"I want another thousand preserved eggs and five hundred salted duck eggs."

These two things can be preserved for a long time and will not end up as a waste in your hands.

Manager Wang of Tongfu Restaurant can't sit still anymore. First it was Coke, and now it's salted duck eggs and century eggs. Lai Yuelou is leaving them no way to survive.

"Boss, we have to think of a way. We can't let Laiyuelou take away all the business."

They, the shop assistants, are also anxious. The boss is in a bad mood because there is no business and takes it out on them. Being scolded is a small matter, but not being able to pay wages next month is a big deal.

Shopkeeper Wang's eyes showed a hint of cruelty: "How are you doing with the thing I asked you to do before?"

The guy licked his lips, feeling somewhat embarrassed: "Laiyuelou has a backer, even if we do that, it will not be able to close down!"

"Who said I was going to shut him down?"

"Then you mean..."

It doesn’t matter whether Lai Yue Lou is closed or not, what matters is that there is no business.

As long as Lai Yue Lou has no business, Tong Fu Restaurant's business will naturally be good.

"Remember to make this as big a fuss as possible."

"Little understands."

Manager Wang knelt down and lit three incense sticks for Master Guan Gong. He didn't want to do this. He could only blame Lai Yuelou for being too ruthless.

After Zhao Yunchuan finished work, he went to find the village chief and told him about collecting eggs. The village chief smiled and thought that he was indeed a promising man who was thinking of doing such a good thing for the village.

This is a big business, so Zhao Yunchuan specifically applied for a day off tomorrow, planning to collect eggs in the morning and wrap them in the afternoon.

"Don't worry, I'll ask your aunt to spread the word everywhere. I guarantee it will be known everywhere in one afternoon."

"Then I'll trouble the village chief."

"It's just a matter of words."

In fact, Zhao Yunchuan could have done this himself, but he just wanted to do a favor. Since he would be living in the village in the future, it was necessary to have a good relationship with the village chief.

What's more... with the village chief in charge, some blind people wouldn't dare to cause trouble.

Before leaving, Zhao Yunchuan left a bag of snacks from Lai Yue Lou.

The village chief laughed and said, "This kid..."

Sure enough, Tian is very capable.

That night, everyone in the village knew that the Fang family would collect eggs the next morning. They needed both chicken and duck eggs, and they had to be fresh. They couldn't use eggs that were about to wake up.

"Finally, our family has a share!"

Last time, they saw someone selling eggs directly to the Fang family, which made them jealous. They hoped that such a good thing could happen to them, and now... their dream has come true.

Chen also learned the news. She also wanted to take the eggs in her home to the Fang family to sell, but she was too embarrassed to do so.

After paying the Fang family twenty taels of silver and paying the Sun family fifteen taels of silver as betrothal gift, there was really not a penny left in the family. In order to raise the betrothal gift, she even sold two acres of land.

Now she only hopes that Miss Sun’s dowry can be more generous so that their future life can be better.

But this egg...should I sell it or not?

Chen didn't sleep well, and neither did Zhao Yunchuan.

He finally had a day off and wanted to sleep in, but in the end he failed to do so. At daybreak, the voices of villagers were heard outside.

"Are you up? It seems like he's not up yet!"

Someone shouted loudly: "Aunt Guihua, is Aunt Guihua awake yet?"

Zhao Yunchuan wanted to hit someone. He was already in a bad mood when he woke up, and now that he was woken up, he was even more upset.

When I looked out the window, a word of "fuck" went straight to the top of my head.

It's not even daybreak...

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! ! ! !

The early bird catches the worm, and the early worm is eaten by the bird. Zhao Yunchuan feels like he is a worm now.

Poor thing!

It was noisy outside and Zhao Yunchuan couldn't sleep, but he didn't want to get up either.

Bai Guihua and Fang Huai got up, dressed neatly and came out. When they opened the gate, they saw a huge group of people.

"Aunt Guihua, are you going to collect the eggs?"

Bai Guihua nodded: "Yes, why are you here so early?"

Someone immediately replied with a smile: "I just wanted to deliver the eggs and work in the fields at the same time."

What’s more important is that they are afraid that if they arrive too late, all the eggs will have been collected and they won’t need their eggs anymore.

"Then come in quickly!"

Zhao Yunchuan was not going to stay in bed any longer, so he got up, washed up quickly and started to work. It was still the same old routine, Fang Huai counted the eggs and Zhao Yunchuan counted the money. The eggs they received were placed in a straw nest they had built, which was half the size of the bed.

Seeing that everything was in order outside, Bai Guihua went in to cook. She and Fang Dashan ate quickly and came out to take over for them.

Many women who were familiar with Bai Guihua began to ask, "Sister Guihua, what big business is your family doing that makes you collect so many eggs?"

The noisy crowd suddenly quieted down and everyone listened attentively.

If there is an opportunity, everyone wants a piece of the pie.

Bai Guihua laughed and said, "Nothing much, just doing some work for the restaurant."

Some people in the crowd pursed their lips.

Bai Guihua is really lucky. She married a good man before and now has a good son-in-law.

Half son-in-law

They are not my biological children!

"Sister-in-law Guihua is going to be rich!"

Soon, Fang Huai and Zhao Yunchuan came out after eating. Seeing that they were busy here, Bai Guihua carried a hoe and went to the fields.

…………

"What are you still standing there for, you damn girl? Hurry up and send the eggs to the Fang family."

Tian Cuicui's face fell: "Mom, you go!"

She didn't want to go. Fang Huai was annoying, and Zhao Yunchuan was even more annoying.

"I can go, then you go to the fields?"

"Then I'd better go deliver the eggs!"

Tian Cuicui was born beautiful, but her family never let her work in the fields, hoping that she could maintain her beauty and find a good family in the future.

"Sixth Aunt said that there is a family in Kaner Village who is very well-off and their youngest son is also very handsome. You..."

Tian Cuicui interrupted directly: "Is he a scholar?"

"Farmers!"

"I won't marry. I want to marry a scholar!"

Tian Cuicui likes fair-skinned scholars who wear long gowns and hold folding fans, and she doesn't like those who work in the fields in the dark to dig for food.

"You are not a child anymore. Don't think about Chen Xu anymore. He has hooked up with a girl from town."

There was a hint of loneliness in Tian Cuicui's eyes. She murmured in a low voice: "A beautiful lady is a good match for a gentleman..."

This is what Chen Xu read to her before.

There was Fang Huai before, and there will be Miss Sun in the future, but not her.

It was almost noon when Tian Cuicui arrived late with a basket. She thought Fang Huai would not take her eggs or would make things difficult for her, but the fact was... he took the eggs and paid for them, and he was very quick about it.

No extra words.
