The little cook in the book has fallen asleep
Chapter 56 Discovering New Business Opportunities
When Cheng Yu heard these words, he replied with a smile: "Yes, I will ask my aunt to make them and sell them to everyone in the future. Hehehe, then our family can also make private orders!"
Cheng Yu is wearing a pink jade bracelet and beautiful clothes. Her face is rosy from the sun, and she looks very cute.
"Hey, little Chengyu, can you tell us what custom-made products are?" Mrs. Wei hugged her gently and couldn't help teasing her.
She heard from her husband that little Cheng Yu was not even two years old yet, and now he was talking about business in a serious manner, which was very rare.
"That's right. We customize it specifically for you and design clothes for you according to your body shape. Each person's style is different and unique!" Cheng Yu didn't explain it in a complicated way; it was simple and easy to understand.
"What's so great about that, bumpkin? Which of our clothes isn't made by someone at home? Which of them isn't tailor-made for us?" Lin Jing couldn't bear to see Cheng Yu, a bumpkin, steal her limelight.
When Cheng Yu heard this, he immediately stood up, walked to her side, pointed at the fat on her belly and said, "This is it, you see everyone's styles are similar, and look at yourself!
You don't look prettier in this dress, it only highlights the fat around your waist. Look at me, I don't have any fat at all!"
Seeing that there were no men around, Cheng Yu immediately lifted up the hem of her skirt, revealing her bulging belly hidden by the hem for everyone to see, and then quickly put the hem down, instantly covering her belly.
The hem was added intentionally by Lin Pan'er. After she sewed the skirt, she thought of her daughter who was still young and had a small belly, and girls all love beauty, so she folded the remaining pink cloth into pleats and sewed them to the hem piece by piece, so that it just covered Cheng Yu's small belly.
Originally, Cheng Yu didn't want to compare her with Lin Jing, but Lin Jing insisted on provoking her. She was courting death, so she just let Lin Jing satisfy her!
"Oh, the clothes made in this way are really beautiful. Little sister, can I touch it?" said a noble lady, and then stepped forward to touch Cheng Yu's clothes.
"Of course!" Cheng Yu generously put her hands on both sides, showing her clothes and allowing the lady to touch them.
Then everyone saw the lady showing off the peculiarity of the dress again with great interest, and they were all moved. If it was such a custom-made one, they would also want it!
"Country bumpkin! That's nothing! Don't you understand that this is Shu brocade! Only what the public likes is good. You have no taste! It's obvious that the fabric of your clothes is not good fabric!" Lin Jing was very angry when Cheng Yu pointed at her belly and said that she had fat. Now that Cheng Yu stole the limelight, she immediately said something without thinking.
"But it looks good! And sisters can choose the fabric they like! We...our farmers are suitable for wearing this kind of fabric!" Cheng Yu immediately retorted.
Mrs. Wei saw that Cheng Yu seemed to be irritated, and many noble ladies changed their faces. What do you mean by popular? There is a unique one, who wants the same one!
This Miss Lin said that Cheng Yu has no taste. Doesn't that mean she is also saying that those who like Cheng Yu's clothing style have no taste either?
"Someone come! Miss Lin is being disrespectful in public. Send her to Aunt Lin's room!" Lord Wei just sent a maid over and asked Madam Wei to take Lin Jing down.
Madam Wei wanted to ask the maid to take Lin Jing away at that time, but Lin Jing had done nothing wrong, and taking her away casually would have been considered a lack of courtesy on the part of their master!
Isn't this an opportunity?
The Wei family has no daughters, and neither does Mrs. Wei's family, so Lord Wei originally wanted to ask a few nieces from his concubines to come and meet the Cheng family's sons. But the stupid Lin siblings offended them directly.
But for her, it was a good thing. When Lin Wei came into the family, she was nearly 20 years younger than the other old people. If the master had not been so lustful, Lin Wei might have already turned the back house of the county government upside down.
After Lin Jing was "taken away" by the servants, everyone pretended that this little episode had not happened and continued to talk and laugh.
"Oh, this pastry is delicious, but it contains too much sugar! I've gained weight!" said a young lady.
"Yes, we have been staying at home during the winter. When summer comes, many skirts will not be wearable anymore!" said another lady.
"It would be great if there was any recipe to help me lose weight!" Mrs. Wei also said with a smile.
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. So, Cheng Yu heard these words.
Whether in ancient times or modern times, it is women’s nature to love beauty, and this is also a new business opportunity!
Also, no matter how the poor live, the rich have endless money. While the poor are still worrying about food and clothing, the rich are already thinking about losing weight!
Meanwhile, at the men's table, Cheng Zhiwen and his two brothers were playing the game of Feihualing with other scholars, and they were just playing the word "fei"!
"In February, when the grass is lush and the orioles are flying, the willows on the bank are swaying in the wind, intoxicated by the spring smoke." A scholar was reciting Gao Ding's poem aloud.
"The waterfall drops three thousand feet straight down, as if the Milky Way falls from the sky." Another student also recited aloud.
……
"I wish to be a pair of swans, spreading their wings and flying high." Cheng Yiyu recited a very strange poem, but it also represented his ambition at the moment!
"We all have lofty aspirations and want to fly, to embrace the bright moon in the sky!" Cheng Zhiwen also recited a poem that made it possible to understand his ambition at the first listen.
When Cheng Liyao heard the word "fly", he only thought of the border where the war was still going on, so he immediately said this sentence: "As long as the flying general is in Longcheng, the Hu horse will not be allowed to cross Yinshan!"
(Please don’t worry about the source and age of the poem. I really can’t write good poems. I can only let these talented people recite our modern poems!)
In fact, between literature and martial arts, Cheng Liyao prefers martial arts. He has been learning martial arts with his elder brother. If the imperial court had not held a military examination, he would not have thought of taking the autumn examination.
"Okay, that's right, a good idea to not let the Hu horse cross Yinshan Mountain! Boy, I see you have extraordinary talents, do you want to learn martial arts from me?" General Yuan walked out of the crowd happily and walked quickly towards Cheng Liyao.
"Brother, why are you back?" County Magistrate Wei asked in surprise.
Although his wife and elder brother-in-law were wealthy, their parents had both passed away, and the two depended on each other for survival. It was not until Yuan Yin married him that Yuan Heng joined the army.
Yuan Heng started out as a commoner and is now a third-rank general. The only regret is that he is a martial arts fanatic. He has never married and has no children. All he wants in his life is to take in a disciple to inherit his legacy.
"Oh, I came back to see you and my sister. By the way, I heard that my eldest nephew Wei Wei is a little unruly?" Yuan Heng said happily.
Yuan Heng was still very satisfied with County Magistrate Wei. Although he had taken in several concubines over the years, the Wei family only had three legitimate sons, and the rest of the concubines had no children.
"Yes, Yin'er is waiting for you to come back and deal with him!" County Magistrate Wei came forward with a smile.
After the banquet, Cheng Yu and the others said goodbye to Mrs. Wei. Sun Xiaoxiao and Zheng Rong admired Cheng Yu very much.
Cheng Yu was really good at coaxing people. When he coaxed those noble ladies away, they all said that when the Cheng family opened a store, they must let Madam Wei notify them.
Cheng Yu naturally agreed happily. As expected! The identity for socializing is given to oneself!
For example, as soon as she said that she was the sister of Jieyuan and Yayuan, these noble ladies would have to be polite and would have to accept it even if they were unwilling!
After all, her three brothers are among the most influential people in the county!
"Hey, hey, hey, boy Cheng, you should think about it carefully. What's wrong with being my apprentice?" As soon as Cheng Yu arrived at the door, he heard a middle-aged man pulling his fourth brother.
"Look, you have amazing talents and are a good candidate for learning martial arts. It would be a waste if you don't learn martial arts from me!" Yuan Heng continued.
Cheng Yu suddenly thought of Stephen Chow’s movies and laughed. Why does this guy look so much like a liar!
Just as Yuan Heng was about to continue lobbying Cheng Liyao, he keenly noticed that his trouser leg was being pulled by something!
When he looked down, he was instantly moved to tears. Whose little white girl is this?
With two pigtails tied up in the air, she was so cute! He wanted to steal her back, and he did so. He squatted down and picked up Cheng Yu.
"Uncle, are you better than my big brother?" The little girl was not afraid of him. She looked at him straight and asked.
Cheng Yu remembered that his elder brother was also very good at kung fu.
Cheng Yu knew that his fourth brother did not like studying, because he was always in high spirits when learning sword skills with his eldest brother, and he read military books more seriously than the Four Books and Five Classics.
"I don't know who your elder brother is. I can fight with him!" Yuan Heng's voice dropped eighty degrees unconsciously and began to become clamped.
"Brother, are you okay?" Cheng Yu asked. His brother had just recovered from a serious injury, so he was still afraid of hurting him.
"Of course..." Cheng Lixiao was about to say yes, but was interrupted by Cheng Liyao.
"Of course not, I'll do it!" Cheng Liyao said, his elder brother is still injured!
"Come on, boy, let's practice. If you lose, you will be my apprentice!" Yuan Heng stuffed Cheng Yu in his arms into Cheng Lixiao's arms, and pulled Cheng Lixiao to an open place.
Mrs. Wei Yuan Yin, who had just seen off the guests, came in and saw her eldest brother pulling the fourth son of the Cheng family past her, calling her "old man" all the time!
Who has ever seen a 45-year-old man? Only her unreliable elder brother could call him that.
Yuan Heng had crawled out of a pile of dead bodies. Although he held back, he still beat Cheng Liyao until his nose and eyes were swollen. Even so, Cheng Liyao would never kneel down.
The more Yuan Heng looked at Cheng Liyao, the more he liked him. He wished that Cheng Liyao would recognize him as his master right there and then.
As a result, Cheng Liyao said he wanted to go back and ask his family, and then left with the Cheng family.
"Why doesn't he want to learn martial arts from me?" Yuan Heng asked puzzledly.
"Brother, Cheng Liyao is the fifth runner-up in this spring's imperial examination!" Lord Wei explained.
"I see!" Yuan Heng shook his head. It was a pity that his family would definitely not agree. Otherwise, he would be a good talent as he was brave, resourceful, strong in martial arts, and knowledgeable and cultured.
He rubbed his arm. How come this guy is so strong? What a good seedling!
After returning home, Cheng Yu expressed his idea and put forward his own opinions. Braised pork and spicy hot pot can also be arranged.
The first thing she planned was the five-story restaurant given to her by the Bai family. She planned to sell some fashionable food on the first floor, such as corn cakes and porridge. Later, she would take some new things out of the space and teach her grandmother to make a variety of buns and snacks.
She plans to turn the second and third floors into a restaurant, specializing in selling cold noodles, spicy hot pot and braised pork. She also wants to have a set menu that includes risotto and stir-fried dishes. The specific dishes will depend on the chef's mood on the day.
Then add a door between the third floor and the fourth and fifth floors, open a door and add a spiral staircase from the left side of the restaurant, leading directly to the fourth floor.
The fourth and fifth floors are for private customization. The fourth floor is responsible for food and fat loss; the fifth floor is managed by Lin Paner, who does private customization of clothing.
When the Cheng family heard her idea, they all thought it was a good one, but they all thought that they should harvest the corn, move to a new house and then do business.
Lin Pan'er also asked Cheng Yiyu and his two brothers to calculate this month's income. After deducting the cost of various materials, there were actually 15 taels. This was not a small amount of money. It could buy three acres of good farmland!
Cheng Lixiao looked at his fourth brother with complicated eyes. Didn't he plan to tell his family about his plans?
Forget it, let’s wait until he figures it out!
But Cheng Liyao didn’t have the chance to figure it out on his own!
(The author has something to say: I have never raised a daughter. I have only raised boys from my brothers and sisters. I don’t know how to write about Cheng Yu in a way that can reflect her cuteness. Everyone is welcome to share the interesting stories of your own daughters.)
