He Mai arrives at the store in the morning and is ready to open the door. Li Chang'an yawns and comes over from the West intersection.

"You smelly boy, why did you leave without saying a word yesterday?" He Mai stares at Li Chang'an, "I've been looking for you with brother Yang for a long time! Why did you run away? "

Li Chang'an's mouth tilted two times, "I I have diarrhea. I'm afraid I'll stink your cottage, so I'll leave... "

"What nonsense He Mai patted Li Chang'an on the head and said, "I made a big table of rice. As a result, there were two less people to eat, and there was a lot left!"

Li Chang'an rubbed his head and said, "if you can't eat one meal, just eat two! But I'm sorry I didn't go alone with granny Lin

"Come on, just go next time." Seeing that Li Chang'an was like this, he Mai was not angry. After thinking about it, he said, "I haven't put your lantern yet. We agreed to put it, but you ran away!"

Li Chang'an spat out his tongue, took a bucket from the shop and went to fetch water from the opposite side.

After the Mid Autumn Festival, there are many guests today. In the middle of the festival, he Mai takes advantage of Fried Bun to greet the guests. Wang also comes to help, but he is still in a hurry.

Put the last two steamed buns in the drawer into the greased pot. He Mai wiped the sweat on his forehead and took a long breath.

"A drawer of fried buns." Here comes an old man, trembling with a crutch.

"Sir, there are only two left." He Mai said with a smile, "come early tomorrow. There are so many people eating steamed stuffed buns these days. The bags are not enough to sell."

"Then pack more," the old man's crutch poked on the ground, looking a little unhappy, "then two, and then two bowls of sweet porridge."

"Oh, good!" He Mai quickly wrapped the two steamed buns in oil paper, took the bowl handed over by my uncle, and made two bowls of sweet porridge.

"Slow down, sir!" He Mai waved enthusiastically to the back of uncle.

Li Chang'an jumped to the front of the table, Ding Lingling poured more than a dozen copper coins on the table, "have all the steamed buns been sold out?"

"Well." He Mai was a little tired and sat on the stool in the shop. Before he could have a word with Li Chang'an, he saw some customers coming to buy steamed buns.

Seeing this, Li Chang'an muttered, "what's the matter? After the Mid Autumn Festival, how is the business so good?"

He glanced at the wheat and said, "why don't we set up a plaque tomorrow to say that the limited supply of steamed stuffed buns is first come first served?"

His proposal made him shake his head. "Who has to get up early to eat a bun? How can business be like this? No, we'd better supply more. "

"I've heard from brother Yang that you are very tired when you are alone, and you are making dough and rolling skin." Li Chang'an frowned, very painful to the wheat out of the idea, "or you hire a help to help you baozi Bai?"

He Mai really pondered.

Li Chang'an took the opportunity to encourage: "really, anyway, I'll hire a helper who can make steamed buns. Two yuan a month is enough. Although we are small, we can't hold on to many guests. You are so thoughtful. If you think it's OK, you can find a helper as soon as possible to save you so tired. "

"I said to Xia Hua that day," he Mai knew that Li Chang'an didn't know about it. "It was the girl in red that day. I'm going to let her come to our shop to help."

"Why didn't she come?" Li Chang'an asked with his head tilted.

"She may not be able to get away from the busy farming these days. She hasn't answered my letter yet." Homado.

"If she doesn't come, you'll be too tired to stand up all day?" Li Chang'an muttered, "just find one as soon as possible. Isn't it easy to find a helper who gives wages?"

He Mai's eyes fell on Li Chang'an and he laughed, "why do you care so much about me all of a sudden? What's the idea? "

Li Chang'an flat mouth, muttered: "good as donkey liver and lung!"

When LIULANG came back from town to pick up Hemai, Li Chang'an took the opportunity to tell him to find a steamed bun helper for the shop, and LIULANG immediately agreed.

"Ask for a helper. You'll be tired out if you work so hard every day." LIULANG said.

"That is, brother Yang has given you orders, but you still don't listen?" Li Chang'an broke in behind LIULANG.

He Mai felt funny, pinched his waist and looked at Li Chang'an, "aren't you afraid of brother Yang? Why don't you go to the bamboo grove to see the bamboo mice? "

Li Chang'an blushed, straightened his neck and said, "I, before me, that was respect!"

"That's all," he Mai waved, "I know I should find a helper, but didn't I make an agreement with Xia Hua before? Find a helper again. What's the matter with Xia Hua? When she answers my letter, is that all right? "

When she said that, Liu Lang and Li Chang'an did not continue to persuade her.

Back in Xiaoqing village, when passing by Qin's Maoyuan, he Mai jumped from the donkey cart and went straight to the inner room.

In the room, the Qin family was staring at a dress. When he Mai saw the pattern of the dress, he knew that it was the one Lin hemiao had left behind.

"Milk, I'm back!" He Mai pretended to be relaxed and went in. He raised his oil paper bag with a smile. "I just bought some cooked beef in Qinglu village. What would you like to eat at noon?"Qin slowly raised his head, "you and LIULANG get something to eat, I'm not hungry."

"You have to eat, too." Regardless of Qin's words, he Mai went into the kitchen and made some simple meals.

Cucumber and egg noodles, white steamed bread, fried shredded pork with gourd, and a plate of sauced beef.

He Mai just gave Qin family a lift from the Kang and half coaxed and half persuaded Qin family to eat.

"Milk, I'm too busy these days. I think if summer flowers can't come to my shop, I'll find another helper." He Mai had a word with the Qin family.

She just wanted to distract Qin and stop thinking about what happened last night.

The words he Miao said before he left the house made Qin's family sad. Looking at his granddaughter, he said that he hated her one day and broke with her. If he never came back, it would be hard for him to accept.

What's more, the Qin family is getting older. He Mai is really afraid that the Qin family will have something good or bad.

Qin was stunned and said slowly, "when do you have time to go to Hongzao village to see what happened to Xiahua's family? It's not easy for your Aunt Li and her family. According to me, if you can wait, just wait more? "

After a pause, she said, "your shop is busy enough. What will you cook for me when you come home? I'll go to your place tonight and help you make buns, so you can't have a good rest. "

"That's all right," he Mai began to reply. He was a little happy and refused, "I'm not tired. I'll be energetic after a sleep. While business is booming now, how can you earn two more dollars to buy a house in a big place in the future? Do you think so? "

Qin's face showed a little smile, "like your father, they are willing to work hard for money!"
