A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

"Yes, yes, that's really generous. But don't worry, boss. We will definitely do a good job and will not let you down."

"Yes, yes, yes, ever since my employer gave me a chance to work in the factory, I used the money I earned to buy medicine for my mother, and her illness has improved a lot.

Now that the boss has given me so much meat, it can help my mother replenish her body. I believe she will get better faster. I am so grateful to the boss.

The workers were all talking to each other with gratitude. Two pounds of pork was not a lot, but it was something they would not be able to afford even if they lived frugally.

Therefore, all the workers who carried the meat home had smiles on their faces.

After Leng Yan and Leng Su finished dealing with the matters at the soap factory, they walked towards the big locust tree in the village, ready to help Grandpa Leng and the others harvest vegetables.

Before the two of them got closer, they could hear from afar the villagers under the locust tree excitedly discussing something.

"It's so refreshing, so refreshing. You are indeed a lady from a wealthy family. Even though you are down and out, your demeanor is unmatched by ordinary people."

"Yes, yes, did you see the expressions on Sun Tongsheng and his mother Han's faces? When Wang Shiliu said that he wanted to take over the women in our Lengzhan village, both mother and son's faces turned green."

"Yes, yes, yes. Especially when Village Chief Lan told Wang Shiliu to let him know if he needed anything in the future, the mother and son looked as ugly as if they had eaten a fly."

"I really want to tell you, they deserve it. Who would stand by them after doing such a wicked thing?"

Leng Yan and his companion listened to the villagers' gossip along the way, and couldn't help but become curious about the progress of the Sun family's divorce, so they asked.

"Oh, what's the point of divorcing? How dare the Sun family get such nerve?"

"That's right. Wang Shiliu didn't violate any of the seven grounds for divorce. Since the Sun family is so heartless, Wang Shiliu should just file for divorce."

It turned out that Leng Yan's guess was almost right, divorce was Wang Shiliu's ultimate goal.

Moreover, it was the Sun family who first proposed the divorce. When they were not in the right at all, they wanted to seize Wang Shiliu's dowry, which made them the target of public criticism.

No one knew what others were thinking, but Village Chief Lan, who was asked to judge the case, would never do such a shameless thing, so he told the Sun family not to even think about the dowry.

But Wang Shiliu is very polite and filial, and his arguments are well-reasoned.

She said that since the Sun family wanted to divorce her, she could no longer stay in the Sun family, so it would be better to part ways amicably. She also intended to give out 10% of her dowry to support her mother-in-law, Han, in her old age.

Wang Shiliu burst into tears as she spoke, saying that she didn't want Sun Tongsheng's path to the imperial examination to be affected by his mother's family affairs.

When the onlookers saw this, they all accused the Sun family of being ungrateful and taking advantage of their friend's misfortune, and praised Wang Shiliu for being kind, filial, and magnanimous.

But the Sun family only heard about the 10% of the dowry. It was impossible to take all of it now, but any they could get was good, so the Sun family agreed to the divorce immediately.

Village chief Lan was so angry that he kept scolding them for being short-sighted, but then he began to feel pity for the sensible Wang Shiliu.

Wang Shiliu knew what he wanted, so he took advantage of his current advantage and his newly gained reputation and proposed to take advantage of the women in the Lengzhan village.

After all, the Wang family has fallen and she has nowhere to go, so she might as well stay in the village where she has lived for a while. She still likes the customs of the people in the Cold War Village.

But when the Sun family heard this, their expressions changed slightly. They said they were unwilling to let Wang Shiliu settle in Lengzhan Village no matter what. They said that she was a member of the Wang family and would definitely implicate the villagers in the future.

But what the Sun family did was not right in the first place, so Village Chief Lan naturally would not listen to their nonsense and immediately agreed to let Wang Shiliu settle down.

"I heard that Wang Shiliu has already bought the land and is looking for someone to build a house."

"Yes, yes, it looks like that will be quite a scene. When the house is built, the mother and son of the Sun family will be so angry that they will be fuming."

The villagers were talking about it, and Leng Yan also understood the general situation.

I have to say that Wang Shiliu is quite sober and capable.

"Sister Su, girl Yan, come and help us, we will almost finish harvesting these vegetables."

Seeing them approaching from afar, Old Man Leng couldn't help but wave and speak.

The weather is good and there is plenty of rain in the summer, so all kinds of vegetables grow rapidly. Villagers can harvest a lot from the vegetable garden every day. The Leng family purchases so many varieties every day that sometimes they cannot even use them all up for cooking in the shop.

Therefore, when they collect vegetables from the village now, they only collect a fixed amount every day and will not collect any more.

There is nothing that can be done about this. The villagers expressed their understanding, but they could not hide their disappointment and regret.

After all, if so many vegetables cannot be sold, the family will not be able to eat them all. They will either be dried or go bad.

Seeing this, Leng Yan thought about it, looked at the baskets of beans and green leafy vegetables, and then came up with an idea.

Ever since they bought the shop from Sheng Yuxing, Lengji Snack Shop has been busy renovating the shop and moving into the new shop.

After the shop moved to a new address and reopened, we were so busy that we didn’t have time to put new products on the market. Now that everything has been settled, we have time to prepare new products.

She immediately told her grandfather and collected all the vegetables from the remaining villagers.

Based on his trust in his granddaughter, Mr. Leng did not raise any questions and nodded in agreement immediately.

When the villagers heard this, they were instantly delighted, but they were also worried that the Leng family would be left with nothing if they collected so many vegetables.

After all, they knew roughly how much the Leng family usually purchased. Today, the amount increased so much. What if the shop couldn’t sell all of it?

Seeing their doubts, Leng Yan immediately told them not to worry, as they were doing business and would naturally not allow themselves to lose money.

Things are different now. The villagers make a living by working in the Leng family's soap factory and selling vegetables. They treat the Leng family with a grateful attitude and naturally want the best for them.

After hearing this, the villagers felt relieved and thanked the Leng family again and again for a long time.

After buying all the vegetables and driving the ox cart back home, Leng Su couldn't help but feel curious.

"Yan girl, we have harvested so many vegetables. Have you come up with any new ideas for cooking them?"

"My aunt still understands me."

Leng Yan smiled and nodded, then asked the family to start getting busy.

Looking at the baskets of harvested vegetables, Leng Yan was preparing to dry some first, such as dried beans, dried eggplants, etc.

Then pickle some dishes, such as sauerkraut, sour beans, and Sichuan pickles.

After these are made, not only can they be stored for a long time, but most importantly, they can be used for cooking in the future. They are great for frying, stir-frying, and deep-frying.

After she expressed her idea, the family naturally trusted her. After asking her about the steps in detail, they started to work and divided the work.
