Chapter 84 I want to build a tofu shop
Suddenly I remembered that when Liu Haoran died, there were rumors in the village that Wang was a jinx and that Liu Sihan was a disaster.
The original owner had troubled Wang a lot because of these rumors, and he was not very kind to the young Liu Sihan.
Liu Siyu suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Although she didn't do this, she occupied the original owner's body.
Comparing the two, Wang is actually a pretty good stepmother.
He coughed lightly and pulled himself back to his thoughts.
"Is this why you came to Willow Grove Village?"
Boss Li still felt upset when he thought about the slanders against his daughter.
"I don't want my daughter to be criticized for her whole life. What's wrong with her when she's so young?"
"When we were driven out, we were penniless and wandered around with our child. When we arrived at Liulin Village, the baby's mother was about to give birth."
"The village chief took us in out of pity and introduced us to a house owned by the host. That's how we finally found a place to stay."
Liu Siyu couldn't help but sigh.
“Although life is not satisfactory and there are malicious gossipers everywhere, there are also many good people and warmth can still be found everywhere.”
Boss Li quite agreed with this statement.
"You said something that really hits the nail on the head. If it weren't for the kind people like you along the way, our family would have long since turned into a pile of bones."
Liu Siyu smiled.
"How much rent do you collect from this landlord every year?"
"The owner is a good person. He felt sorry for us and let us stay. He didn't ask for much money. He just said we just need to help take care of the house for them."
Liu Siyu blinked.
How lucky I am to meet such a landlord?
Boss Li seemed to understand Liu Siyu's doubts.
Explained: "The owner is good, but there is a reason why this house fell into my hands."
Liu Sihan looked curious, "What's the reason?"
"Alas," Boss Li sighed.
"The old boss had no sons, so he married a live-in son-in-law. But the boss's generation also had five daughters. Everyone thought that the feng shui of this house was bad and that it would not give birth to a son."
"The village chief explained the reason at the time. I think my children are all flesh and blood, so it doesn't matter what kind of child they are."
Liu Siyu smiled. Boss Li was a rare person who could see things clearly.
"Uncle Li, what are your plans for the future?"
Boss Li straightened his expression and said seriously, "I'll listen to you. I'll do whatever you say. Just give me a meal."
Liu Siyu didn't dare to answer it. There was a patient in the house, and it would be a bottomless pit.
In today's situation, saving lives was already the limit. She was not a savior and could not control the rest of this family's life.
"Uncle Li, I don't have the ability to manage so many people right now!"
As soon as Boss Li heard it, he knew that Liu Siyu had misunderstood.
She said hurriedly, "What I mean is, if you have anything to say, just let me know. I'll go to the dock to do some odd jobs when I'm free. Yun Duo and Yun Cai can also do some embroidery. Our family's life won't be a problem."
"Several doctors said my disease was incurable, but I refused to give up, so I was fooled by others. This time, I almost killed my daughter."
"Oh," Boss Li said and couldn't help but sigh.
"This is fate, I have to accept it."
"It's just... it's just that I'm afraid it will take a long time for you to pay me back."
Liu Siyu waved her hands guiltily, "There's no rush, you can pay it back slowly."
She thought that Boss Li was going to rely on her, but she didn't expect that he was just doing labor for her and was paid interest.
"Uncle Li, since we have come to this point, I will tell you the truth. I have a business deal for you to consider. If you think it is feasible, we can cooperate. If not, you can refuse it."
Just as Boss Li was about to speak, Liu Siyu waved his hand to stop him.
"Listen to me first. This money today is a loan from me. As for the interest, it will be used as rent for two houses."
"Sihan will go to school here after the New Year, and I also want to start a fermented bean curd business here."
"You've worked in the tofu shop for so long, you should know how to make tofu, right?"
Boss Li nodded.
"No problem. I'm basically the only one running Mrs. Zhou's tofu shop. I can do all the work."
"That's good. I want to build a tofu workshop in your yard. You just need to buy beans and make tofu. When there are orders for my fermented bean curd, you just need to deliver it to the customers according to the rules. I will give you three cents for every pound. What do you think?"
Boss Li stood up excitedly, "Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course, if you want."
Boss Li's eyes turned red with excitement and he kept rubbing his hands.
"Yes, of course I will. I will make the tofu beautifully and deliver all the orders on time without missing a beat."
Liu Siyu took out another three taels of silver.
"Take this. Go and inquire about the millstones in the next two days. If you find a suitable one, pay the deposit first."
"Well, I'll go check it out today."
I didn't expect to encounter so many things when I went into town.
But except for the scarface, the rest are all good things.
Qingfenglou needs 30 kilograms of fermented bean curd and sweet rice wine every month. The specific amount has not been determined yet, but Manager Han said that he can take whatever he has.
Sihan's admission to school has been basically confirmed, and we can rest assured that he will live with the Li family in the future.
The tofu shop was also on track, even though he had to pay Boss Li three cents.
But it also costs two cents to buy tofu from Mrs. Zhou. So all in all, Li Lao Da only got one cent as errand fee.
I can also help her take care of Furu and Sihan.
This deal is still quite a good deal.
It was not bad for Boss Li, as he made a profit of two cents from Mrs. Zhou, but he did the whole process himself and had more left.
On the way back, Liu Siyu thought of Sihan's resentment towards those sorcerers, and couldn't help wondering if Liu Sihan also cared about the original owner's past.
"Sihan, do you still mind going there?"
Liu Sihan shook his head.
"I just hate those fortune tellers and those gossipy women in the village."
Liu Siyu understood that Sihan could forgive her as a sister, but he still hated the sorcerer who caused them and their son to suffer, and those gossipy women who made them sad.
Patted Sihan’s shoulder.
"I also know that those people are liars. We just won't listen to them anymore. By the way, we will start school in a few days. Are you nervous?"
Liu Sihan raised her little face and said, "I'm not nervous. I'm actually looking forward to it."
As he spoke, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes again.
"You will be married the day after tomorrow. Will you come to see me often in the future?"
Liu Siyu tapped him on the forehead.
"Silly boy, I'm going to marry in Xinghua Village. It's just a few steps away. I'm not going to marry someone thousands of miles away."
"Besides, we still have business to run. I have to go to town every now and then, so I can supervise you. If you don't study hard, I'll spank you."
Liu Sihan smiled.
"I'm not afraid, but if we all leave, my mother will be left alone in the village. I'm afraid she won't be used to it."
Liu Siyu's eyes rolled.
"That's easy. You can invite her to Liulin Village and tell her that she needs someone to take care of you while you go to school and that she needs someone to make fermented bean curd. She will definitely not refuse."
But surprisingly, Wang refused to live in Liulin Village.
She said she would make fermented bean curd every now and then, so Sihan wouldn't be delayed if she watched over her.
Liu Siyu smiled cunningly.
"The fermented bean curd makes seven cents per pound. Boss Li makes one cent for delivering the food, and I'm responsible for sales and get three cents. The remaining three cents is for your hard work in making the fermented bean curd."
"And the sweet rice wine also needs someone to look after it. I'll give you five cents for every pound you sell."
"If these are done, it will be much better than you staying in the village and cultivating those few acres of land."
