Chapter 186 Dare, dare to do anything that is not illegal
Xiao Baoer knew Shen Zhensheng was very hungry when she saw him wolfing down his food, so she silently poured him a cup of longan milk tea that had just been brewed on the stove.
The three children saw their father eating and ran into the house. Erbao was still chattering with his father beside him, "Dad, are you eating the meat that mom made? Isn't it delicious? I ate a lot today and drank a big bowl of beef soup."
Shen Zhensheng almost vomited when he heard about his beef soup. His three children were just like him in terms of foodies.
"It's delicious. Your mother's cooking is the best. Uncle Zhou Bao bought some toys for you. Go and play with them."
When the three children saw the new toys bought by Uncle Zhou Bao on the table, they all ran over. Dabao let his two younger brothers choose first, and after his younger brothers had chosen, the remaining one was theirs.
"Wife, how is the situation in the yard next door today? Is it easy to handle?"
Xiao Baoer poured him another cup of milk tea. "Well, these people are all good at their craftsmanship and work very efficiently. I went to see them this morning and saw that they were talking and laughing while working. Their personalities seem to be OK at the moment, so let's get started."
"That's good. I was worried about something going wrong this morning."
Xiao Baoer smiled and told him, "Why didn't anything go wrong? There was something wrong, but it was not a big deal. Li Sangou's mother came over and cursed at Dagou and Ergou's wife to give the quota to her and Liu Mengmeng, otherwise she would not leave."
Anger rose on Shen Zhensheng's face. What was this old woman trying to do by causing trouble while he was not at home?
Xiao Baoer took a sip of tea and continued, "But she didn't get any advantage. I didn't show up either, so Liu Yulan and Wang Su'e beat her and Liu Mengmeng up. They were beaten so badly that they couldn't get up. Liu Mengmeng's face was swollen, and Aunt Song Yun chased them away."
The anger on Shen Zhensheng's face subsided a little. If Old Lady Li and Liu Mengmeng bumped into his wife, he would regret it so much. He was scared just thinking about it.
"Wife, if you encounter this situation, don't go forward. Let Aunt Song Yun solve it," Shen Zhensheng felt that it was necessary to give Xiao Baoer some more instructions to prevent her from taking action.
"I know, I know. By the way, how did you get back a pair of gloves?"
Shen Zhensheng's eyes moved to the gloves Zhou Bao gave to Xiuxiu, but he didn't take it seriously and said casually, "Zhou Bao asked me to bring that back for Xiuxiu."
Xiao Baoer's expression of eating melons attracted Shen Zhensheng's attention, "Wife, what's with your expression? What's wrong with these gloves?"
Xiao Baoer glanced at him and said coquettishly, "Are you stupid? Is Zhou Bao interested in our Xiu Xiu?"
Shen Zhensheng really sprayed water out this time, wiped it with a tissue, and continued, "Wife, are you kidding me? Xiuxiu said last time that her hands were too cold in winter, and Zhou Bao had a pair of women's gloves that she didn't need, so she asked me to bring them back."
Xiao Baoer only hated this man for being a blockhead. "You are so stupid. Xiuxiu said her hands were cold, but she didn't even take you, her biological brother, seriously. How could Zhou Bao, an outsider, take it so seriously? There must be a deep meaning behind this."
Shen Zhensheng thought about it and realized that it was true. He quickly said, "No, no, I have to go to the captain's house to ask Zhou Bao's people to take the gloves away. Xiuxiu is still in school."
Xiao Baoer held him back and said patiently, "Why are you so anxious? Zhou Bao didn't say it clearly because Xiuxiu is still in school. Let's just pretend we don't know. Don't mention it in front of Xiuxiu. If Zhou Bao really cares, he will do it for Xiuxiu's good. Let's wait until Xiuxiu graduates before mentioning it."
Shen Zhensheng sat down again, thinking that what his wife said made sense, "Okay, listen to your wife. I have something else I want to discuss with you."
Shen Zhensheng told her that he wanted his father and second brother to cook tea eggs and make sugar-roasted chestnuts, and then let the fifth brother take them to Zhou Bao's people in the town to sell them for him and give them commission.
Xiao Baoer felt that this man had a good business sense and even knew about commission. Xiao Baoer thought this was a feasible idea and that winter was a good time to eat sugar-roasted chestnuts, so as long as the tea eggs tasted good, they would sell well.
"I think it's feasible. Dad and my second brother will just have to work harder in the afternoon and morning. In the afternoon, they will start cooking the tea eggs for the next day. In the morning, they will have to heat up the tea eggs and make sugar-roasted chestnuts."
Shen Zhensheng laughed, "Wife, you don't understand father and second brother. They are happier to have something to do. Do you think they wouldn't be anxious when they see mother and second sister-in-law making so much money? I don't know how anxious they are."
Xiao Baoer teased Shen Zhensheng again, "Yes, yes, you are the best. Wait till night and ask parents, second brother, second sister-in-law, and fifth brother to come home. Let's sit together and talk so that everyone can understand. Tell parents that I can't go out at night."
Shen Zhensheng nodded in agreement, prepared to have dinner and went to the old house to tell his parents to come over in the evening.
In the evening, Xiao Baoer specially cooked a few tea eggs and asked Shen Zhensheng to make some fried chestnuts. When the people from the old house came, she let them taste them.
"Third brother, you didn't ask us to come here just to eat, did you?" Shen's father began to wonder when he saw what Shen Zhensheng brought to the table. Why were he serving eggs and chestnuts so late at night? Why did the smell of them become so different from what he had eaten before?
Xiao Baoer just asked everyone to try it first and then talk about it after tasting it.
Everyone ate a tea egg. It smelled different from ordinary boiled eggs just now. It was very fragrant. It was even more fragrant when it went into the mouth, and it had taste.
They hurriedly took a sugar-roasted chestnut and put it in their mouths. Shen's mother felt sweet as soon as she ate it. "Old Third's, why is this thing so sweet? Can chestnuts be so delicious besides being used to make cakes?"
"Yes, Third Sister-in-law, this thing is really delicious," Shen Laowu ate several in a row.
Seeing that everyone liked the food very much, Shen Zhensheng told Zhou Bao about his plan for today, and finally asked, "Old Five, do you dare to do it?"
Shen Laowu is a brave man. After working in the town for such a long time, he has become much more stable, but his desire to make money has never changed.
"We dare to do anything that is not illegal. Besides, it's just delivering the goods to the town. It's hard work for dad and second brother."
If it had happened in the past, Shen's father and mother might have worried about getting into trouble with the business, but after making pastries for so long, they have developed their courage. Besides, the third son and his wife must have made careful arrangements before letting the fifth son do it, so there is nothing to worry about.
Father Shen slapped the table happily and said, "It's not that hard. Your second brother and I are very happy. It's better to have something to do."
Shen Laowu was not a stingy person, and he said generously, "Dad, second brother, I am just taking the things to town, and the money is mainly earned by you two. Third brother said that the person who sells the things will get 10% of the profit, and the remaining 90% will be 35% each to you two. I will take 20%."
Seeing how particular Shen Laowu was, Liu Ying was not a stingy person, and she would not argue with her brother-in-law who was not married yet and needed money. "Dad, Laowu, you can't say that. I think since you three worked together to do this, you should split it in half, 30% each. Do you think that's appropriate?"
Shen's mother thought so too, but she didn't mention it because she was afraid that the second son and his wife would feel uncomfortable. Now that the second son's wife took the initiative to bring it up, this was the best thing to do. She immediately agreed and even praised the second son and his wife.
Father Shen clapped his hands happily and kept muttering, "I have something to do. Now I don't have to sit around."
Xiao Baoer also joked, "Dad, the busy days are still ahead. If you do a good job in business, you may earn more than mom and my second sister-in-law."
Shin Soo-su also said happily, "I can help too. I also want to learn how to boil tea eggs and fry chestnuts."
The family discussed and agreed that Shen Zhensheng would teach his father and second brother how to make it tomorrow morning. This thing is easy to learn as long as you put your heart into it.
