The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

"Boss..." Zhou Daniu stood in front of Lin Zhi, rubbing his hands hesitantly. He struggled for a long time before he finally made up his mind and walked up to Lin Zhi.

"Is there something?" Lin Zhi looked at him with some confusion, not understanding why this honest employee suddenly came to him.

"Boss... it's like this..." Zhou Daniu stuttered, it seemed difficult for him to speak, but when he thought of his wife at home, he still plucked up the courage and said shamelessly: "Well, boss, I want my wife to live in the dormitory, is it okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at Lin Zhi, his eyes just fixed on his feet.

Lin Zhi frowned slightly, thought for a moment and nodded, "There are not many female employees now, so they can live in temporarily, but they will have to move out when there are more employees in the future."

Hearing this, Zhou Daniu couldn't believe his ears.

He originally thought that Lin Zhi would reject his request without hesitation. After all, the wages of employees living in the dormitory were much lower than those who did not live there. His wages were high, and his working hours were the lowest among all the others...

He didn't expect Lin Zhi to agree so readily, which made him burst into tears of gratitude.

"Thank you, boss. Thank you!" Zhou Daniu was so excited that his voice trembled.

Lin Zhi smiled and waved his hand, signaling Zhou Daniu to get to work quickly.

Zhou Daniu's working hours seem short, but he does not take a break at noon, so in comparison, his working hours are not short.

Moreover, his wife's stay did not include food, so apart from taking up the lower bed, she did not lose anything.

Zhou Daniu nodded, returned to his post with light steps, his heart full of gratitude towards Lin Zhi.

But no one noticed that when he turned around, Zhou Daniu's eyes had already turned red...

Their family's life is getting better and better.

He and his son work hard here and can earn more than 600 coins a month, and they can also enjoy a delicious meal here. In this way, the family's food consumption is greatly reduced.

With more meat available for lunch, my wife's health condition has improved significantly.

However, the only drawback is that they have few family members and are still in a situation of being bullied.

The people in the village are like a pack of vicious dogs. As soon as they smell the slightest bit of benefit, they will pounce on you immediately.

They didn't dare take their wages home because they would be snatched away within a day.

He didn't even dare to bring his work meals home, so he had to ask his wife to walk a long way every day, eat hurriedly on the way and then walk home.

Even though their family was so careful, they were still being targeted.

There are clearly two people in the family who earn money, but there is no money left at home. Who would believe that they really have no money?

Recently, his wife and son told him that the villagers had been following him, trying to find out where they had hidden their treasure, and asked Zhou Daniu not to bring lunch home in the near future.

The white grains of rice are crystal clear and exude an enticing aroma; and the fragrant pieces of meat are bright in color and make people salivate.

However, once these delicious dishes are discovered, they will no longer be eaten by our family.

Instead of wasting it like this, it would be better to leave it all for Zhou Daniu to eat.

Zhou Daniu was full of worries.

This lunch is really good, with meat, vegetables and rice. Since his wife started eating it, her health condition has improved significantly, and he hopes she can keep eating it.

But he didn't dare to take the risk of taking the lunch back, because if he was discovered by the villagers once, all his lunches would belong to those families from then on.

Zhou Daniu fell into deep sorrow. Just when he was at a loss, he saw the carpenter coming to install the furniture and suddenly thought of his wife.

If I let my wife move into the dormitory...

Once this idea came to mind, it surged into Zhou Daniu's mind like a tide, and he could no longer hold it back.

So, there was the scene where he went to find Lin Zhi.

When Zhou Sheng brought the firewood, as per custom, he originally planned to say hello to his father and then go home.

He thought he could just leave after a few simple instructions, but his father actually called him.

"Sheng'er, bring your mother with you next time you come. I'll ask the owner to let her stay in the dormitory."

Zhou Sheng's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this, and he asked anxiously, "Did the boss agree?"

Zhou Daniu smiled naively, nodded and said, "Of course I agree. If I didn't agree, I wouldn't dare to tell you."

Zhou Sheng was very excited. He knew the situation at home very well. He and his father were basically busy outside during the day and could not take care of his mother all the time.

And they knew very well the character of those people in the village.

His mother was alone at home, and she would probably be bullied. His mother was the kind of person who only reported good news and not bad news, so she would not tell them if she was bullied.

"It's a good idea to move here! Let mom live here permanently from now on. Give her the money to keep in the dormitory to prevent those people from rummaging through our house every day." The more Zhou Sheng talked about it, the more he thought this was a good idea.

In this way, his mother lives here, and he can give her money to eat here, ensuring her nutritional intake of three meals a day. He believes that his mother's weak body will gradually recover.

Thinking of this, Zhou Sheng's heart was filled with enthusiasm and anticipation.

However, when Zhou Sheng returned home, he did not bring his mother with him, but instead brought back a heavy bag.

Before Zhou Daniu could ask, Zhou Sheng took the lead to explain: "My mother asked me to bring the luggage here first, and then come here with you tomorrow morning."

After hearing this, Zhou Daniu finally felt relieved.

His biggest worry was his wife's stubborn temper, fearing that she would refuse to leave the house.

Seeing that she was willing to come, Zhou Daniu smiled brightly: "As long as she is willing to come, it will be great. Even if it is delayed for a day or half a day, it doesn't matter."

Afterwards, Mr. Zhou went to find Mrs. Zhou and told her, "My mother is planning to move into the dormitory and is currently preparing to put away her luggage, so I came here specifically to tell you."

Originally, his primary target was Lin Zhi, but unfortunately, Lin Zhi happened to be out at the time. In desperation, he could only turn to Madam Zhou to explain the situation.

After all, Madam Zhou is the only one living in the girls' dormitory now, so you must get her consent before entering.

"Go, go! Auntie is busy now and can't help you, so go by yourself." Madam Zhou was very happy to have a new member joining.

There are many people in the dormitory, so it’s a good thing that you have someone to talk to before going to bed at night.
