After the little cannon fodder was reborn, he chose the villain childhood sweetheart
Chapter 160 Maodan is willing to study
Jiang Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why did he mention Xie Lan out of the blue?
She finally managed to get Xie Lan out of her mind, but he came back again.
She quickly changed the subject and said, "Aunt Si, you guys are stewing about 30 kilograms of pig offal every day, can you handle it?"
"Why not? We have a big family, don't worry!"
Only 30 kilograms of pig offal, there are six adults in Aunt Xie's family, so it is enough for everyone to share a little.
Jiang Wan paused and said, "Aunt Four, the weather is getting cold and it will snow. It is not convenient for you to go back and forth to Luohe Town to sell braised food. Why not open a store in Luohe Town? This will save you the time of going back and forth. What do you think?"
"Open a store?"
Fourth Aunt Xie's eyes lit up.
To be honest, she also had this plan, but it would cost a lot of money to open a store.
Although I have made a little money from selling braised food recently, it is still far from enough to open a store.
"My niece, my fourth aunt doesn't have much savings, not enough to open a shop. After this New Year is over, I will save some money and go to town to open a shop after the New Year."
Fourth Aunt Xie told the truth without hiding anything.
Jiang Wan smiled and said, "I have money. I'm going to town this afternoon. I'll check out the store then."
"Niece-in-law, how can you pay for us to open a store? That won't work!"
Aunt Xie quickly refused.
Jiang Wan has already helped their family enough. How can she now pay for opening a shop and use the money for their braised food business?
Isn't this making Jiang Wan the scapegoat?
Jiang Wan patiently explained, "Fourth Aunt, just think of it as money for opening the shop. I lent it to you. When you have money in the future, you can pay me back, right? It's so cold now. You and Erzhu Juhua have to get up early in the morning to make braised food and drive the ox cart to the town. Not to mention how hard it is to be bumpy along the way, even if the braised food is kept warm, it will be a little cold after more than an hour when it arrives in the town."
"It's cold, and cold braised food doesn't taste as good as hot food. Just for this reason, we should open a shop in town. It can save time on the round trip, and allow customers to buy fresh and hot braised food. Fourth Aunt, what do you think?"
After Jiang Wan's analysis, Fourth Aunt Xie became somewhat shaken.
It takes more than two hours to go back and forth every day. If you use this time to wash the pig offal, you can braise an extra ten or twenty pounds of pig offal, and sell it for more money. Why not do it?
Fourth Aunt Xie was not a rigid person who could not adapt. She immediately made the decision and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, my niece-in-law!"
"But niece, Fourth Aunt has already told you that our whole family is working for you. When the profits are divided at the end of the month, you must take the lion's share!"
Fourth Aunt Xie hastily added.
They are not the kind of people who would take benefits from others without giving back.
She had to let Jiang Wan know their feelings, which, although small, were their most sincere and loyal.
Jiang Wan smiled.
Since she chose to give the braised food to Aunt Xie's family, she will not regret it.
As for the profit share, she didn't see it as significant.
Jiang Wan feels very lucky to have such a kind and lovely family like Aunt Xie.
After the matter was finalized, Aunt Xie was even happier and rolled up her sleeves to start cooking.
Maodan came out from nowhere, tugged at Fourth Aunt Xie's clothes and said, "Mom... I don't want to sell braised food anymore, I, I want to study..."
"What?"
Fourth Aunt Xie thought she had misheard and said with her hands on her hips, "You haven't eaten yet? Speak louder!"
Maodan raised his head and said, "I said I don't want to do business anymore, I want to study!"
"Hey, why do you suddenly want to study?"
Jiang Wan stood up, walked to Maodan with a smile, and deliberately teased him.
Maodan blushed and stammered, unable to utter a word.
Fourth Aunt Xie was impatient. She pinched his ear and shouted, "Your sister Wan'er is asking you a question. Are you mute?!"
"Ouch, it hurts! Mom, stop twisting my ears. I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
Maodan pulled his ear back from Fourth Aunt Xie's hand and muttered, "Mom, I was wrong. I shouldn't have disobeyed you and stopped studying. After going to the town with you guys to sell stewed food these days, I realized that doing business is very hard. And doing business is not as simple as selling things. You also need to be able to speak and do arithmetic... I, I don't know many words, and I can't do arithmetic. I even made a few mistakes. I really embarrassed you..."
Maodan's voice became lower and lower, and he lowered his head deeply, completely losing his previous playfulness.
Jiang Wan glanced at Maodan and found that he had lost a lot of weight, probably because of the exhaustion from working every day.
Being tired is only one aspect. More importantly, he probably realized the shortcomings of his own abilities.
This is a good thing.
Aunt Xie was stunned for a moment, and a hint of relief appeared on her face.
She patted Maodan's head and said, "You naughty boy, do you know the benefits of studying now? I forced you to study before, but you didn't want to, and now you want to study again. If you want to study, it depends on whether your Fourth Uncle Jiang wants to teach you!"
Maodan panicked and went to see Jiang Wan, pouting and begging, "Sister Wan'er, I know I was wrong... I only thought about playing before, and never thought about doing anything for the family. I am a man, I can't be playful and ignorant anymore. Can you ask Fourth Uncle Jiang to teach me how to read and write? I will definitely study hard!"
Jiang Wan and Fourth Aunt Xie smiled at each other.
Jiang Wan said: "Maodan, I am not teaching you to read and write to make you stand out, but to make you understand the principles of dealing with people. When you grow up and understand more, you will naturally know how to deal with the troubles and difficulties you encounter."
Fourth Aunt Xie nodded in agreement, "Your sister Wan'er is right. Your father and I don't expect you to achieve much. But if you can earn a scholar or a juren for our Fourth Aunt Xie family, we will be proud of it!"
Jiang Wan couldn't help laughing. It seemed that Fourth Aunt Xie was still very keen on having a scholar in the family.
Never mind, it all depends on Maodan’s own luck.
Maodan was confused, but he nodded his head like crazy, patted his chest and said, "Mother, Sister Wan'er, don't worry, I will definitely earn a name for myself and come back!"
Aunt Xie felt that today was a rare good day for her family.
Not only did the third son have to run a business in the town's shop, but he also had to start learning to read and write.
Everything at home is moving in the right direction and is thriving.
As soon as she was happy, Aunt Xie took her two daughters-in-law to start cooking.
When lunch started at noon, one table could not accommodate everyone, so two large tables were set up.
The meal was lively and full of laughter.
After dinner, Jiang Wan took Xie Dazhu and Xie Erzhu to the town.
Since she had to buy a lot of food, Jiang Wan was reluctant to let the big black horse carry it, so she directly rented an ox cart from the head of the village, and then went back to the town to rent another ox cart.
After hurrying to Luohe Town, Jiang Wan began to go to the grain and meat shops to make purchases as if he was familiar with the route.
I had just gone to the grain store to ask for 500 kilograms of corn and japonica rice when I heard the shop assistants gossiping with the customers.
The protagonists of the gossip were Zhang Caijin and Jiang Lianer.
