On the second day after Old Mrs. Li lost her money, Wenxiu took the money she had lost and asked someone to rebuild the two wooden doors. After installing the doors, she also asked someone to add a bolt to the doors of the other rooms.
Afterwards, she continued to do business with Song Xiaoyue and Mrs. Zhang in the potato powder business.
It was already the third day since she and Song Xiaoyue went to the Zhang Family Village due to the cultivation sect's matter which delayed them from selling the potato powder. This made the people of Zhang Village, who had been looking forward to it all day, grumble for a long time, causing Wenxiu to have no choice but to explain with a smiling face. However, she didn't say that her husband's second brother was the bandit. She only said that there was a thief in the family.
The people of the manor were all simple and honest. After listening to Wenxiu's explanation, they no longer complained. Instead, they were concerned about whether her family had lost anything or not, and whether the thieves had caught them. While shopping, he chatted with Wenxiu.
Wenxiu was also a good talker. While thanking those who cared for her, she was also shouting out to advertise her potato powder. Two buckets of potato powder, about sixty to seventy catties in weight, were sold out in less than an hour.
The Zhang Family Village was a huge village. Sixty to seventy catties of potato powder was not even enough to fill the gaps in their teeth. Many people had not been able to buy it. The last time he ate, he came a little later, and it was even more painful than not being able to buy meat when he had already made up his mind.
"Li family's daughter-in-law, when will you come again?" Wenxiu had not left today, and the people of Zhang Village were all hoping that she would come again.
The villagers all trusted and liked her, so when they asked her for her husband's surname, she said it was' Li 'with a bit of embarrassment. Therefore, many women called her "Li family's daughter-in-law".
The old society of feudal decadence had always regarded men as the supreme authority. After a woman married into the husband's family, her maiden name would be given to the husband before she married into the family. For example, if Wenxiu married Li Jun, she would be called "Li Wen", and her ancestral tablets would be the same in the future. However, they would usually avoid trouble and save their husband's family name.
As Wen Xiu was cleaning up the barrels, she answered, "It should be in two days. If everyone really wants to eat it, you can think about it for yourselves. It's actually very simple. "
The potato powder business was not long to begin with. Its production techniques were simple and easy to learn. It was only natural for Wenxiu to encourage everyone to make a move on their own. So as to make a good impression on everyone when they sell other things in the future. However, she was kind enough to make everyone shake their heads.
Some people in the Zhang village also started their own cooking after eating the potato powder, but their techniques were not good, and they didn't pick up the flour properly. They all did the same thing as when they ordered the bean powder, boiling the milk and adding the gypsum powder. Several families had tried it, but none of them were able to do so and had no choice but to give up.
"Li family's daughter-in-law, do you want to teach everyone how to be a wife?" Someone in the crowd said, as the 20 + pairs of eyes surrounding Wenxiu all landed on her body at the same time.
So awkward!
Wenxiu really wanted to slap herself. She was really nosy!
"Hehe, I came up with this method myself. The three of us will be relying on this to eat right now. If you trust me, I'll give you my way when I find another way to make a living, okay? "
"This …"
"Alright, we trust you!"
If the first person believes it, there will be a second, and then a third... The more they spoke, the happier they became. Those who could not get their hands on the potato powder were also overjoyed.
Wenxiu and Song Xiaoyue said their goodbyes. After they left the village, Song Xiaoyue said, "Xiu Niang, are you really going to tell everyone about this method of making money? What about you and the treetops? "
Song Xiaoyue wasn't jealous that Wenxiu had announced this method to the public. What she was worried about was that if Wenxiu told them this method, how were the three of them supposed to survive?
Wen Xiu walked while carrying the wooden bucket. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. When we reach the end of the bridge, we won't need to sell any more potato powder."
In other words, by the time she found a way to make more money, the amount of money she earned from the potato powder would no longer satisfy her ever-swelling pursuit. In her entire life, she wasn't willing to sell potato powder in this shitty village.
"That's good, that's good!"
"Don't worry, I won't be that stupid!"
"I was really afraid you'd be stupid!"
"Hehehe …"
At the end of his words, the two of them burst out laughing.
After the two of them returned to Xitang Village, each returned home to make lunch. After hurriedly finishing their meal, they began to pour out the potato powder that they needed the next day. The Zhang Clan arrived rather early. The three women sat together in the courtyard, peeling potatoes. After chatting about yesterday's incident, the Zhang Clan started to talk about the Li Clan.
The Li family members had been making a ruckus yesterday, crying and making a ruckus, especially Li Taohua, who stood in the courtyard and shouted about wanting to marry Wang Yanqing, as if Song Xiaoyue didn't exist. As for Lady Wang and Lady Zhou, they seemed to have started fighting as well. However, she was not a nosy person, so she didn't really hear much even from hiding in her own house.
When Song Xiaoyue heard the Zhang family's description of Li Tao Hua crying and wanting to marry her family's Yan Qing, her big eyes almost popped out. She was stunned for a long time before saying, "Sister-in-law, you …" Is that true? "
Previously, the Zhang family only talked about the liveliness and had completely forgotten that Song Xiaoyue was Wang Yanqing's wife. Now that Song Xiaoyue smelled it, she felt a little regretful. Her face was full of awkwardness as she did not know what to say. Women were afraid that other women would miss their men, but they were more afraid that their men would miss the women outside. He really didn't dare to respond to Song Xiaoyue who didn't have a girl by her side.
On the other hand, it was Wenxiu who responded on behalf of Mrs Zhang. She then said, "We all know, but you have never thought about that. "However, your family's Yan Qing isn't that kind of person. No matter what she does with her plum blossom, he won't marry her to his home."
"Really?" Song Xiaoyue was obviously in disbelief. After all, she hadn't appeared in five years!
Wen Xiu stopped what she was doing and looked at her seriously. She said word by word, "Un, it's true. You and Yan Qing are very close, and he treats you very well, so he definitely won't agree. "Moreover, I've heard Old Lady Li and Lady Wang speak before. They've privately approached Yan Qingniang, but she didn't agree."
"My mother didn't agree?" Song Xiaoyue almost cried out in excitement, but when she thought about it again, she felt that something was wrong and shook her head vigorously: "How could my mother not agree? She used to nag that I didn't give Yan Qing a daughter! "
When Wenxiu heard her words, she shook her head. He didn't know what the Ceng family was thinking. However, Li Tao Hua can forget about marrying Wang Yanqing.
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Zhang Shi herself said that she had caused a ruckus. She also quickly stood up to clean up the stall, "Your mother might only have some complaints, but she also understands the hardships of being a woman. Don't think too much into it, or you'll misunderstand Yan Qing and hurt your relationship. "
"That's right, sister-in-law is right!"
Song Xiaoyue nodded with a stiff face and then lowered her head to continue peeling the potatoes. But in the afternoon, she had clearly spoken less!
