We have separated, what does it have to do with me if my husband's family eats bran?
Chapter 13: Doing some business
Seeing the elder brother in a daze, Dani said mysteriously, "Brother, this is what mom touched from her breasts, don't tell anyone."
The three siblings looked at each other and didn't think their mother had done anything wrong.
Instead, Cheng Yue deliberately put on a stern face and said, "Your grandma is withholding food. This originally belongs to us, but you can't take other people's things. Taking it is stealing."
"Mom, we know. Dad said that if you steal something you will be sent to jail and beaten with a stick!" Dani said solemnly.
Cheng Yue laughed. Chen An taught her a lot. She pushed the three children out and said, "Okay, go out and drink some sugar water. I have to make lunch."
When Da Ni and Er Ni heard that lunch was going to be prepared, they insisted on helping, and Cheng Yue had to persuade the two girls to leave.
In fact, at this time, except for the busy farming season, most families only ate two meals a day. However, Zhao Shi was greedy and needed a meal, so the Chen family always cooked three meals a day.
In the yard, Chen Lin and Da Ni and Er Ni were drinking sugar water in small sips, feeling happy in their hearts. It turned out that sugar was so sweet!
Only Chen An’s doubts grew bigger and bigger. Damn, are there really so many good things?
However, if my mother didn't hide it secretly, it couldn't be that Cheng Yue appeared out of thin air.
Chen An took a sip of the sugar water. It was so sweet that it directly diluted the bitterness of the herbs.
When I saw the three children happily holding their bowls, I felt guilty.
He had bought candies for the children once when he came home from working part-time, but when Cheng Yue saw it, she hurriedly gave the candies to her mother, saying that she was giving her mother something good so that her life at home would be better.
As a result, he was scolded by his mother and the children didn't get to eat either.
Later, every time I went home, my mother would search through my belongings first, so I never bought anything and could only secretly hide some copper coins in my trousers.
No matter what was bought, it was not the child's turn to eat it. Cheng Yue gave it all to his mother.
Therefore, the children had never eaten candy, and he couldn't hold a grudge against the person who gave birth to his children for such a small matter.
Fortunately, Cheng Yue has changed a lot now and knows how to think about her own family.
Cheng Yue didn't know that Chen An was thinking so much. He was only thinking about what to make for lunch.
There are too few ingredients on hand, and we can't take anything out of the space to arouse suspicion, especially from the cunning Chen An.
It's really hard for her! A good cook cannot cook without rice!
Cheng Yue sighed, and continued to make a large pancake made of a mixture of white flour and coarse flour as the staple food. She also made a big bowl of shepherd's purse and egg soup, blanched dandelions, added various seasonings, and poured hot oil on it, making it delicious.
The family had just drunk sweet soup and were now eating the delicious meal, with a look of satisfaction on everyone's face.
They didn't know that wild vegetables could be so delicious.
However, after eating so many bread and eggs on the first day, how will we get through the rest of the days?
Dani frowned and said, "Mom, we've already eaten two meals of bread and several eggs today. Why don't you take the eggs and exchange them for some wheat bran and mix them with wild vegetables for Erni and I to eat."
Anyway, this is how they ate before. Although it was hard to swallow, at least they didn't starve to death.
I only gave him this little bit of food. If he keeps eating like this, I'm afraid it will be gone soon.
After hearing what Dani said, Chen Lin and Erni also became worried and suddenly couldn't eat the food in their hands.
Cheng Yue put down the bowl and chopsticks and said softly, "No one in this family will have to eat bran from now on. I said that after we divide the family, I will let you eat meat every meal.
Although it is not possible for the time being, I will definitely find a way to make money. Eating some bread and eggs every day is nothing, so you can just eat your meals in peace.
Besides, we still have money in our hands, so you don’t have to worry about it. Children worry about not growing taller.”
If you mix a small amount of wheat bran into flour and eat it, it is considered to be healthy, but if you mix it with wild vegetables, it can be used to feed pigs.
How can people tolerate rough things? Moreover, children have weak stomachs and feel uncomfortable just thinking about it.
The three children didn't want to eat meat every meal, nor did they take this seriously. The best thing they could do was to have a dry meal every day.
Dani sighed and said, "But mother, the money will eventually run out, and my eldest brother will be looking for a wife in a few years..."
Cheng Yue: “…” At such a young age, she is already worrying about her elder brother’s marriage.
Chen Linteng's face suddenly turned red, not knowing how this person was mentioned.
Chen An put down the bowl and coughed lightly, "I can make money when my leg heals. I have a plan for your eldest brother's marriage, so don't think too much about it, kids."
Then he said to Cheng Yue very embarrassedly: "Well, Ah Yue, I actually saved some money. It's in the hole in the wall behind the bedroom door. You can go and get it."
In the past, Cheng Yue would give everything he had to his mother, which led to him never telling her that he was secretly saving money.
As far as she could remember, every time Chen An returned home, he would obediently hand over his wages to Zhao. Cheng Yue never expected that this man would keep something back.
Cheng Yue went into the house and took out the purse. He weighed it in his hand and saw that it was full of copper coins. He poured it onto the dining table, and there were also two silver pieces, which was quite a spectacular sight.
Chen Lin, Dani and Erni were all stunned.
Chen An said, "Here is three taels and two cents in total. Ah Yue, take it and see if there is anything you need to buy at home."
At that time, two cents could buy three pounds of sweet potato flour, and three taels of silver was enough to feed the whole family for a year.
Cheng Yue nodded and said, "Okay, we need to find someone to repair the roof, and also buy some cloth to make some clothes for the family. I'll take care of the rest of the daily necessities."
Then he took out the silver in his hand and said, "Here are more than seven taels. After you finish the medicine in your hand, you still need to see a doctor for your leg.
But Doctor Xu said it's not serious, and I think another two taels will be enough. I also want to use some to do some small business, and put the rest together with the ten taels to help Xiaolin find a wife in the future."
The three children blinked in disbelief. How could their family have so much money?
Chen An looked at the tattered clothes of the family, which were barely enough to cover their bodies. He did not object to buying cloth, after all, he had money.
But what about doing business?
"Ayue, what kind of business are you going to start? If you have an idea, I will support you."
He can't be of much help for now, just hope he doesn't get in the way.
"I want to sell food, but I don't know what to do yet. I'll see what to do when I go to town to buy things tomorrow."
Cheng Yue grew up in the countryside and was used to cooking. After she started working, she rarely ordered takeout. Her cooking skills were not that good, but the food was much better than that of ordinary people.
Moreover, you have your own space and all the seasonings, so any food you cook will taste better than the food you cook at this time.
But she had never been out, so she didn't know what she could do.
After hearing Cheng Yue talking about the food business, Chen An had an idea. He had carried large bags at the dock and worked as a laborer for a construction team, so he knew where was suitable for selling food.
Moreover, the two meals made by Cheng Yue are much more delicious than before, so they are definitely good enough.
He immediately said, "Ayue, there is a dock in our town, and there are many people working there. There are people selling food near the dock, but their wages are not high, unless they make a lot of food and are full."
Cheng Yue's eyes lit up. The pier! There were many customers and the customer base was stable. It was perfect.
