Baby brings his own shopping mall to travel through

If the family happened to be having a meal, Old Lady Yang would always rush forward and pull the village chief, inviting him into the house to have a few more bites of food. Before leaving, she would stuff two steaming hot steamed buns into his mouth for him to take home.

The village chief carefully stuffed the buns into his arms and hurried home. After returning home, he gently closed the door and took out the buns from his arms. The buns were still slightly warm and exuded a faint wheat fragrance.

The village chief divided the steamed buns into several portions, then quietly handed them to his family members, and warned them in a low voice: "Don't tell anyone that we have steamed buns to eat! If outsiders know about it, we will never have the chance to eat such delicious food again."

The adults nodded their heads to show that they understood, but the children did not have such self-control. After all, the delicious steamed buns were too tempting for them, and they would always feel itchy if they could not share them with their friends.

The village chief also knew that children were not good at keeping secrets, so when he brought the steamed buns home for the second time, he said to his wife: "Why don't we give them to the children at night, and let them eat the steamed buns in the dark. This way, the children won't know what they are eating, and they won't be able to tell anyone outside." The village chief's aunt actually agreed with his idea.

Nowadays, life is so tight that it is a great favor if someone can spare two steamed buns for you.

If this matter spreads, what if other villagers come to the Dashan family to borrow food? You know, although the Dashan family can eat white flour buns occasionally, they are not well off.

If I refuse to lend it to the villagers, I will definitely get gossiped about; but if I really lend it to them, my life will probably be affected. So, this is really a dilemma.

Speaking of Uncle Li, Xiao Cao'er's maternal grandfather, I have to say that their family business has been rather dull in recent years. The business is still the same old business, with no innovation at all.

You know, our ancients were not short of people who studied hard. Once a new business that was profitable and could make a lot of money was discovered, everyone would flock to it, trying to get a piece of the pie. As a result, there would naturally be people who would rack their brains to figure it out.

Because of this, the business run by Uncle Li has been thoroughly studied by others over the years. Moreover, the Li family is a large family with a large population. The children gradually grew up and started their own families. The monthly expenses increased day by day, but the income did not increase.

Now, this big family can only hold on to the one and a half mu of thin land at home. Although their life is not bad, in comparison, their living conditions are not even as good as those of Goudan and Tietou's families!

Speaking of Goudan and Tietou, they have been doing very well since they started making salted eggs and preserved eggs.

Their Yue family was also very supportive and took the initiative to help purchase chicken and duck eggs and send them to Qingshan Village, while Goudan and Tietou were responsible for the production of the products.

Since the materials needed for production are extremely simple, in order to prevent others from learning it, the two of them have always done it themselves and have not invited any outsiders to participate.

As the demand for duck eggs increases, more and more families start raising ducks.

Xiao Caoer even provided Goudan with a unique secret recipe for making cured duck. However, Xiao Caoer had never tried this recipe herself, so Goudan and Tietou had to figure it out slowly.

Hey! Guess what? After some painstaking research, they actually succeeded in making this cured duck!

Therefore, it is often said that the ancients had no shortage of people who wanted to study, but only lacked opportunities.

Just today, Xiaocao'er's family received a special surprise - Goudan and Shopkeeper Wu, who was holding an auspicious wine glass with his iron head, brought New Year gifts together.

Among these New Year gifts, the fragrant cured duck is naturally indispensable, and there are quite a lot of them, several of them.

You know, this New Year gift is not just for the Yang family. Qi Xingyun, who has a close relationship with the Yang family, also received one. After all, it was thanks to the connections of Shopkeeper Wu that it was sent here.

This was also the New Year gift that the Yang family received from Qingshan Village in their first year in the capital.

Xiao Cao was happily sorting out the New Year gifts sent by Goudan and the others. Suddenly, her eyes lit up as if she had thought of something, and she shouted excitedly, "Oh my, it would be great if we could have some taro right now! Taro paired with our delicious cured duck, wow, the taste is simply amazing!"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but sip her saliva, as if the wonderful taste was already lingering on the tip of her tongue.

Seeing this, Li, who was standing by, quickly scolded her, "You crazy girl, you are already engaged now, you should pay more attention to your words and actions, and learn to be more dignified like a lady!"

"Is taro cured duck really that delicious?" Looking at her granddaughter's saliva drooling at the mere thought of it, Old Lady Yang couldn't help but swallow her saliva as well.
