We have separated, what does it have to do with me if my husband's family eats bran?
Chapter 64 Spend a small amount of money to accomplish big things
As soon as Cheng Yue and Chen Lin drove the ox cart through the gate, sisters Chen Tong and Chen Ning rushed over like little butterflies, "Mom, brother, why did you come back at this time?"
Cheng Yue jumped out of the car and pinched her two daughters' faces. Just as she was about to speak, Chen Lin interrupted her and said excitedly, "After Mom finished her business at the shop, she went to Wangshan Village to buy chickens and ducks. She bought 500 of them!"
Chen Lin opened his palm and put it in front of the two sisters. Cheng Yue looked over and thought, this kid can answer questions quickly!
Chen Ning covered her mouth and stared in shock, "Mom, did you really buy 500 chickens and ducks?"
Cheng Yue nodded and smiled: "Yes, then Xiao Ning won't have to worry about eating eggs and meat."
Chen Tong knew that Cheng Yue didn't raise so many chickens and ducks for her own consumption. After all, there were already seventeen chickens at home, which was more than enough for the whole family.
We are going to open a braised food shop, and my mother must be raising chickens and ducks for business. But how to raise so many chickens and ducks, and where to raise them?
Chen An was sitting in the yard with a wooden stick in his hand, doing something unknown. When he saw Cheng Yue coming in, he put his hands behind his back and smiled gently.
He also thought of the same problem that Chen Tong was thinking of, and immediately expressed his thoughts.
"Ayue, there is plenty of space around our house. It is not a problem to raise 500 chickens and ducks. Why don't we ask the villagers to help build nests in the next two days?"
Cheng Yue found a stool and sat down, smiling, "I thought so too. The shop said that construction will start in three days, and the opening date will depend on the date. I don't know how long it will take. I happen to be free these few days, so I'll get this done first."
To be honest, she quite likes this about Chen An. He can immediately provide solutions to problems instead of asking a bunch of long-winded questions.
Chen An said softly, "Now the men in the village are free, so we can hire a few more and it will be done in two days. Ah Yue, have you decided who to hire to raise the chickens and ducks?"
It is impossible to raise so many chickens and ducks at home. The only possibility is to find someone to do it. A Yue has a plan in mind and must have thought it through before deciding to raise them.
Chen Tong thought of this, frowned and said in a depressed tone, "It's all because we are too young to raise it, otherwise we wouldn't have to find someone."
You have to pay the hirer. It’s not easy for my mother to earn money, and she still has to throw money away. It makes me sad just thinking about it.
Cheng Yue joked: "What a little money-grubber!"
Having said that, she also knew that the children were worried about the money, so she had to say, "Even if you are older and can support him, I won't let you.
Our family is doing business now, and it may become bigger and bigger, and there will be more and more things to do. If we want to do everything ourselves, we will only be able to take care of the beginning and not the end, and end up doing nothing well.
Hiring someone is equivalent to reducing our burden. Although it costs money, we also save more time.
With time, you can do more important things and make more money, do you understand? "
To accomplish great things with little money, you must learn to delegate power, leave unimportant tasks to others, and just be the leader at the helm.
I understand the truth, but I had nothing in my previous life, so I will be a social animal until I die, and an "optimized" social animal at that.
Now that she has one more life left, she strives to become the head of the family!
Chen Ning's eyes were confused, and he seemed to understand but not quite. Chen Tong was a little older and smarter, so he understood immediately.
"Mom, I get it. You mean we shouldn't worry too much about trivial matters and should focus on more important things, right?"
Cheng Yue nodded. It’s good that the child is smart and understands things quickly.
Chen Ning seemed to understand and asked, "Mom, who are you looking for?"
Cheng Yue watched Chen Lin tie up the cow and walk over, and smiled, "Go find your sister Cuicui and Aunt Xiangxiu. Your eldest brother said that he knows Cuicui's abilities and will take good care of her!"
Chen An shook his head and laughed. He had never seen a mother teasing her son from time to time. He was just like a child.
Chen Tong and Chen Ning also looked at Chen Lin and laughed gossipingly, "No wonder big brother was so happy just now, it turns out that Sister Cuicui is coming!"
Chen Lin's face turned red, but he pretended to be serious and said, "Sister, don't say anything nonsense. Cuicui is a girl. If it gets out, it will ruin her reputation."
Before, everyone said he was stupid and called him a fool, but Cuicui didn't do that. Cuicui said he was kind and honest. He was happy in his heart, but he didn't dare to get too close to her. He knew that girls valued their reputation the most.
Chen Tong and Chen Ning immediately straightened up and assured, "Brother, we know about it and we won't spread it around."
They are all girls, so they naturally know the importance of this matter.
If they weren't the only family living on the mountain now, without even a neighbor, they wouldn't have told anyone even at home.
After getting the sisters' assurance, Chen Lin looked at Cheng Yue again, who also repeatedly assured him: "It was mother's fault. I won't say it again. To express my apology, I'll go cook!"
Chen Lin eats well now and is as strong as a calf. Although he is not as big as Cheng Yang, he inherited Chen An's genes for well-developed limbs.
Standing there with a stern face, he really looks a bit intimidating.
After saying that, Cheng Yue ran to the kitchen. If you didn’t know, you would think that she had a burn on her butt.
Chen An gave Chen Lin a cold look and said, "Then why are you watching your mother? If you have nothing else to do, go cut some grass for the cows."
He's already protecting her before he even gets married. What will happen in the future?
Chen Lin scratched the back of his head with a puzzled look on his face. He didn't even look at his mother, so why was his father angry?
Forget it, he should just go and mow the lawn!
.
After breakfast the next day, Cheng Yue went to the headman's house carrying a small basket of eggs.
Chen An couldn't show up to gather the men in the village to build chicken and duck coops, and it was not easy for her to do so.
She was not familiar with many families in the village, and she couldn't just go to their homes rashly.
Feng was feeding the chickens. When she saw Cheng Yue coming in, she rubbed her hands on her clothes and said enthusiastically, "Cheng Yue girl, come in quickly!"
It’s not Chen An’s wife, it’s Cheng Yue. Does she have a name now?
Cheng Yue put the eggs on the table and said with a smile, "Aunt Feng, I'm here to talk to the head of the village about something."
Feng saw Bai Baihua's basket of eggs and said quickly, "Oh, what are you doing? If you need anything, just let me know. You can't bring anything every time you come. Take it back and feed the children."
If anyone has eggs and is willing to eat them, they will save them to exchange for salt and food in the town. Cheng Yue took so many at once, so don't be too scared.
"Aunt Feng, just accept it. I'm here to ask the village head for help. Isn't he at home?"
Cheng Yue didn't continue to argue with Feng about the eggs. Anyway, they were all taken out from the space. She could eat as much as she could and she would never be able to finish them.
Feng sighed and said, "Your uncle is always busy. This idiot in the village beat up his wife, and now her parents are making trouble, and they insist that your uncle go to seek justice.
He has to deal with all the gossips in the village. Just sit and wait for a while. He will probably be back soon."
