We have separated, what does it have to do with me if my husband's family eats bran?

After Chen An finished speaking, he thought of a problem. There are many men at the dock! Looking at Cheng Yue again, although she was dressed in rags and had a thin figure, she was full of energy and her beauty was hard to hide.

"Ayue, let's forget about the dock. It will be messy if there are too many people. I..."

"It's better to have more people! Thank you for reminding me." Cheng Yue has made up her mind to go and take a look tomorrow.

As for food that is large, filling and affordable, she already has some ideas.

Chen An opened his mouth and closed it again. Ah Yue was so happy, he should not spoil her fun.

"From now on, you can take the money from our family and buy whatever you need."

Is this handing over financial power?

Cheng Yue thought that she did have important things to do, and Chen An couldn't go out, so it wasn't a big deal to give her the money, and she wouldn't spend it recklessly anyway.

Besides, she has a space, and she is not at ease putting the money anywhere, so throwing it in the space is the safest.

I have to say, but it does feel good to be trusted and supported by others.

After dinner, Da Ni and Er Ni took on the task of washing the dishes, Chen Lin went to the spring to wash the floor, and Cheng Yue cleaned the bedroom.

Together with the bed board that he moved from Chen's house, he had just enough to make two beds. There were also two quilts. Although they were made of coarse linen stuffed with willow catkins, they were still clean. He could just take them out to bask in the sun.

I'll replace the quilt in the space while I go shopping tomorrow.

At night, Cheng Yue found an excuse to sleep with her two daughters and asked Chen Lin to sleep with Chen An.

There was only one bed last night, so it wasn't so awkward for the whole family to squeeze together. Now there are two beds, so men and women naturally have to be separated.

We can't let Chen Lin live with his two younger sisters. Children of this age must be kept away from each other.

Of course, it was because Cheng Yue didn't want to sleep alone with Chen An. For the time being, she really found it a little difficult to accept sleeping in the same bed with a man she had only known for two days.

The whole family slept soundly, especially Chen Lin and Dani and Erni. They were not woken up by hunger in the middle of the night, nor did they have to worry about Zhao's scolding at any time. They slept soundly until dawn under the soft and fragrant quilts.

Only Chen An slept uneasy. He had only one thought in his mind: the bed for the other bedroom must be made immediately.

The next day.

Cheng Yue got up early, made a pot of corn grits porridge, also called corn grits porridge here, and fried two egg pancakes.

After breakfast, Cheng Yue took Chen Lin to the town, while Da Ni and Er Ni stayed at home to accompany Chen An.

Cheng Yue couldn't take care of all three children. If one of them was not careful and one of them was kidnapped by a beggar, it would be a disaster.

There are no ox carts in Houshui Village, which is understandable if you think about it.

The villagers all make a living from working in the fields. Although it was not a year of famine, after paying taxes, they were lucky enough to have enough left to feed their family. How could they get the money to buy an ox cart?

Cheng Yue could only look up to the sky and sigh. Even if the time-traveling girl went to the remote mountains, she had means of transportation, but she could only rely on her two feet.

But thinking about it again, at least I have a lot of money, and fortunately I didn't wear the clothes of a really poor family who couldn't even have food to eat, so I can be considered lucky.

Moreover, Qiu'an Town is only ten miles away from Houshui Village, so walking is not a big deal.

I've had enough food these past two days, so my body isn't so weak that I can't walk five kilometers.

It was still early, Cheng Yue and Chen Lin each carried a basket and walked slowly towards the town.

Qiu'an Town is not big, but it has a good location. It is located right in the middle of the thirty or so villages under its jurisdiction. It is a piece of flat land surrounded by mountains.

Because it is the center, it is particularly lively.

Qiu'an Town belongs to the Tang River Basin. The Tang River runs from north to south and has a wide basin, which is suitable for transporting goods. Therefore, a wharf was set up in Qiu'an Town.

When they arrived in the town, Cheng Yue asked someone and took Chen Lin straight to the dock.

Cheng Yue looked into the distance. Although it was still early, the porters had already started working, carrying goods back and forth.

There were two people occupying positions nearby with stones, but no one had arrived yet. I didn't know what business they were doing. There was only a middle-aged couple at a stall selling steamed buns and wontons.

Cheng Yue wanted to ask around and find out the price, so she went over and ordered a bowl of wontons and two steamed buns. The wontons were five cents a bowl and the steamed buns were three cents for two, so she spent a total of eight cents.

The buns are big and the wontons are plentiful, but the price is well worth it.

Cheng Yue was not hungry, but Chen Lin was a grown-up boy, so there was no need to worry that he would not be able to eat.

Chen Lin scratched his head. Didn’t he just have breakfast before going out? Why did he need to eat again?

Maybe his mother felt sorry for him and was afraid that he would be hungry, so thinking of this, Chen Lin ate a wonton in one bite.

Although it wasn’t as delicious as the ones his mother made, he had never eaten wontons before, so he found it quite novel and enjoyed it very much.

The bun and wonton wrappers are a bit yellow and black, but they are much better than coarse flour. It goes without saying that the cost of refined white flour is too high.

Cheng Yue took a bite and found the filling had no meaty taste, it was just average.

The woman selling wontons nearby glanced at Cheng Yue and asked, "Sister, are you planning to set up a stall here?"

Cheng Yue looked up in surprise. The woman smiled and said, "This is the dock. You can't be here to carry heavy bags. This is your son. He is so thin, so he must not be looking for a job."

The woman looked kind and didn't mean any harm in her words. Cheng Yue smiled and said, "I did want to sell food here, so I'd like to ask Big Sister about the situation here."

The woman pointed in the direction of the dock and said, "The stall business is under the management of Mr. Chen San at the dock. You can do whatever you want, but you have to pay a stall fee of five cents a day."

"I have to pay a stall fee?" Cheng Yue has read so many novels, why can others set up a stall whenever they want, but she has to pay a stall fee of five cents? This is unreasonable.

"Oh! Sister, you don't understand. The docks are full of grown men. If they start to cause trouble, it will be a disaster. We pay the money just to do business steadily. Mr. Chen San is a practical person and a good person."

After hearing this, Cheng Yue understood. After thinking about it, it made sense. It was best not to fail to make money but get hurt. Safety was the most important thing.

"Sister, what kind of business is this place doing?"

"Besides ours, there's one that makes dumplings, steamed bread, and pancakes, one that sells big pot dishes, and one that makes noodles. The taste isn't that good, so I guess they won't come anymore."

The woman asked again, "Sister, what do you want to do? I tell you, there are many people here, but they are all hard laborers. This business is neither easy nor difficult to do.

The food you make has to be tasty and filling. They only make 30 cents a day. If it’s more expensive, no one will eat it. You see, my business is not going to be easy. Alas! "

The elder sister had good intentions. Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Thank you for reminding me. I will think about it carefully when I get home."

The woman waved her hand and said, "Don't be polite. Anyone who comes will have company. If you want to come, just go to the wooden house at the dock and pay Mr. Chen San."

Cheng Yue thought to herself, this elder sister is such a down-to-earth person, open-minded and enthusiastic.

After thanking him again, he took Chen Lin out of the dock.

She already had an idea in her mind, but setting up a stall was not something she could do just like that. She didn't have any tools or materials. It wouldn't be too late to prepare them when she got back.
