The eldest sister-in-law became rich by farming in the mountains

"Who said no? I'll go back and pack my things tonight!"

If she refuses this rare opportunity, she would be mentally ill.

What to do with the two kids?

easy to do!

If she doesn't want to come to town, she can help with work in the village. If she wants to come to town, she can help wash dishes in the shop. No one will treat her child badly.

What to do during the busy farming season at home?

That would be easier to do.

Anyway, the business is only done half a day, so I can go back to help in the second half. If I really can't get away, I can ask someone to do it. Now that the family has a stable income, there is no pressure to hire a few people to help with farming.

As for how to explain to my parents-in-law?

There is no need to worry about this at all. Being able to help Xu Yingtao and bring income to her own family will make her parents-in-law so happy.

In short, Zhao quickly thought through all aspects and then made a firm decision.

She wants to come to the town to look after the shop, and no one can stop her.

Zheng Wu hadn't fully digested this matter yet, but he vaguely felt that this was definitely not a bad thing, so when his wife said yes, he nodded as well.

Xu Yingtao is also very happy. Now that her family has a shop in the town, she will no longer have to worry about having no place to display various new products when they come on the market.

You can also set aside a room as a warehouse.

As long as they set up a few shelves in the store and arranged the food into categories, Zhao and Zheng Wu could handle the job completely.

This way she doesn't have to go to town every day.

Xu Yingtao is a person of action. She does whatever she thinks of immediately.

So, she immediately found the carpenter in the town, told him her needs, and then found Wang Hu and asked him to repaint the areas in the shop that needed whitewashing.

After all this busy work, it was already time for dinner, so Xu Yingtao simply took a few people, including the old couple from the bun shop, to Hongbinlou.

It was both a celebration of owning a shop and a farewell party for the old couple.

The old couple didn't expect to receive such treatment before leaving. They were so happy that they didn't know what to say.

In order to let the old couple make room for Xu Yingtao as soon as possible, Shopkeeper Ding specially chartered an ox cart for them to return home. At noon, the ox cart was waiting at the door of the bun shop.

Xu Yingtao helped the two elderly people move their luggage into the car, then watched them leave before she began to count the items in the shop.

In order to prevent the Jiang and Zheng families from worrying if they did not see them return home, Xu Yingtao sent the two brothers from the eldest house back to the village to report the news as soon as they finished their meal.

The old couple from the bun shop took away some light and valuable items, and left all the pots, pans, tables, chairs and benches behind. The old people took good care of the utensils and many of them could still be used, so Xu Yingtao had very little to buy.

After taking inventory and making a list of what she wanted to buy in her mind, Xu Yingtao gave the key to Zhao.

Today was a busy day, so the shopping had to be put on hold, but she still had to go to Jishidiang to ask whether the lotus seeds had arrived.

If it arrives, I must buy it back quickly to make up the gift for Xie Bai to become his apprentice.

The most important thing is that in the past few days, she asked Xie Bai to deliver food to the Yan family every day, and they have formed a tacit understanding and habit.

However, due to being busy with shop affairs today, Xie Bai was unable to go as scheduled at noon, which may have disrupted the dining arrangements of Aunt Xue's family.

That was Xie Bai's future master and mistress, she would never dare to offend them. After that dinner, she had to go to their house in person to apologize.

At the same time, Xue Qingqiu was eating the meal he had cooked with a tasteless taste.

Xie Bai did not come today, so she had to cook by herself. As it turned out, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. The family of three was not very happy with the meal.

At this moment, she missed Xu Yingtao's craftsmanship so much that she even worried about how she would be able to survive without her.

Yan Heng was more worried about Xie Bai's safety.

He could see that the child was eager to study, and if it wasn't for an accident, he would definitely not miss the show for no reason.

Yan Yunlan had no idea of his parents' thoughts. After eating half his fill, he secretly hid in the house, took out the red tasseled spear that he had hidden under the bed, and touched it again and again reluctantly.

It’s a pity that I am a girl, otherwise I would definitely go to the battlefield to avenge my brother.

Each family member had his own thoughts until Xie Cai came to their door.

"Uncle and aunt, I am Xie Bai's second cousin. His eldest sister-in-law bought a shop in town and didn't make it back in time at noon. My cousin's wife asked me to come back and give you a message, telling you not to worry."

It turned out to be the case.

The couple's hearts fell back into their stomachs.

Xue Qingqiu asked him to go into the house and drink some water, but Xie Cai quickly waved his hand to refuse.

He still has to rush home to help plant the wheat.

In the afternoon, when Jiang saw Xu Yingtao, she immediately asked excitedly, "Yingtao, Xiao Zhao said you bought a shop, is it true?"

Xu Yingtao smiled and nodded, then told Jiang the whole story of how she took over the shop. The latter was amazed.

It's true, when luck comes, it can't be stopped.

Xu Yingtao put away the six gifts and went into the kitchen to prepare food.

First up is the braised chicken. This dish is not difficult to make. Just clean the chicken and throw it into the old marinade and braise it.

Next came the sauerkraut buns.

She made the sauerkraut the day before. She rolled the washed mustard greens in boiling water, quickly scooped them out and arranged them piece by piece in a ceramic pot. She then poured the water used to scald the leaves into the pot, just enough to cover the mustard greens. There was no need to add a grain of salt. Just let it sit for two or three days and you would get salt-free sauerkraut with a fragrant sour taste.

Of course, there must not be any oil on the dish during the whole process, otherwise the sauerkraut will not be made.

She prepared two kinds of bun fillings, one with sauerkraut tofu and the other with sauerkraut pork. They were seasoned by her, and each one had a thin skin and large filling, and was extremely fragrant.

Finally, he stewed two bowls of Sichuan Fritillary and Pear Soup, one for his family and one to be sent to Beixi Village.

Yesterday, Xie Bai told her that Yan Heng had a slight cough, so she kept it in mind and bought some Fritillaria cirrhosa at Jishidiang today.

After finishing all this, it was almost time for feeding. Xu Yingtao picked up the braised chicken, filled a large basket with buns, and took the bowl of pear soup. She asked Xie Bai to carry the six gifts himself. Before leaving, she did not forget to feed the golden eagle and change into new clothes.

In this way, the family of four set off for Beixi Village.

Xue Qingqiu thought that Xie Bai would not come again today, and was worrying about the dishes for dinner.

Suddenly, Xie Bai's voice was heard outside the courtyard.

"Aunt Xue, Uncle Yan, Sister Yunlan, are you home?"

Xue Qingqiu was delighted and quickly responded, "Yes, Xiaobai, just push the door and come in."

Yan Heng was immersed in painting the landscape of Beixi Village in the house. When he heard Xie Bai's voice, he couldn't help but put down the brush in his hand and looked out the window with a smile on his face.

However, when his eyes swept past Xie Bai and noticed the two women, one big and one small, a hint of doubt flashed across his brows.

At this time, Xue Qingqiu had already come out of the door. When he saw Jiang and Xu Yingtao, he said in surprise, "You are here too."

Jiang seemed a little at a loss for a moment, but Xue Qingqiu had already seen the celery and jerky in Xie Bai's backpack, and his smile deepened.

"Did you prepare it?" She looked at Xu Yingtao.

Xu Yingtao smiled and nodded, then called someone in a friendly manner.

At this time, Yan Heng also went out to greet the guests.

Before meeting Yan Heng, Xu Yingtao thought he was just an educated businessman. Now, seeing him with her own eyes, she was secretly amazed and even stunned for a moment.
