He rode the ox-cart and delivered the tables, chairs, and other furniture that Uncle Sun made to the shop in town.
Uncle Wang was also in town, helping Li Xiao place the furniture and clean the place.
Lin Xiaoyue, on the other hand, brought Wang Erya and Aunt Wang home to make cold cakes.
He was going to deliver the goods to the Ruyi Restaurant and set up a stall in front of Qingyun Academy.
She had no intention of stopping the business at the entrance of the Qingyun Academy in the last two days.
Because she was really short of money now.
“The shop is opening the day after tomorrow. I have to go to the shop tomorrow afternoon to take a look. I’ll mix the lime water in advance. Since I’m not here, you and your mother will make the cold cakes tomorrow afternoon.” Lin Xiaoyue started the fire and told Wang Erya.
She had already taught Wang Erya how to make the cold cakes.
Wang Erya did a good job and could already take over her job.
“Yue’er…” Wang Erya looked slightly flustered.
The reason why she was confident in making the cold cakes these two days was because Lin Xiaoyue was watching over her.
“You won’t be here tomorrow. What if something happens and I ruin the rice paste?”
A pot of rice paste could make 4 buckets of cold cakes, which was a lot of money!
“Don’t worry, 1 trust you!” Lin Xiaoyue gave Wang Erya a look of trust.
Seeing that Wang Erya was still nervous, she said, “it’s fine even if you messed it up. Just see it as practice.”
“If you don’t take over, 1 can’t deliver to Ruyi Restaurant and set up the stall, which would make us earn 2 taels less. And your brother…”
Wang Erya’s expression changed.
“1’11 do it!” Wang Erya said hurriedly.
Yue’er had been taking care of their family. She couldn’t let her down. Two taels of silver was not a small amount.
The corners of Lin Xiaoyue’s lips curled up.
“Great!”
Then, when Aunt Wang came back, she told her about the arrangement.
When she heard it, she let Lin Xiaoyue do her work in peace, saying that she would definitely make the cold cakes with Wang Erya tomorrow afternoon.
After making the cold cakes, Aunt Wang and Wang Erya went back. Lin Xiaoyue rested under the big tree in the courtyard.
Someone came.
It was none other than Zhang Shi, the wife of Li Gengtian, the village chief. Not only did Zhang Shi come, a young woman in her early twenties also followed behind her.
“Yue’er! 1 knew you were here!” Zhang Shi saw Lin Xiaoyue and walked over with a smile.
“Mrs. Li!” Lin Xiaoyue smiled and replied.
She got up from the swing and walked over to Zhang Shi and the young woman with a smile.
“My mother went to the restroom, she’ll be back in a while.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
She thought that Zhang Shi was here to see her mother, Liu Shi. After all, she didn’t have much contact with Zhang Shi.
“I’m looking for you, not you mother!” Zhang Shi said with a smile.
Lin Xiaoyue was puzzled.
“What is it? Please sit!” She invited Zhang Shi to sit.
Zhang Shi glanced at the young woman behind her and pulled her over.
“Who is this?” Lin Xiaoyue thought that she looked familiar, but she could not remember where she had seen her before.
“You don’t recognize her?” Zhang Shi glanced at Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue paused. Only then did she remember the identity of the young woman.
It turned out that she was actually the younger sister of the village chief and Zhang Shi’s sister-in-law, Li Juanzi.
She rarely came out. About six years ago, she married into a family who lived in town..
