Chapter 52: A Competent Grandson-in-law
Jiang Mingyue slept well at night.
Even if she accidentally had a nightmare, someone would always appear in time to help her and rescue her.
She was stable all night.
When she woke up the next morning, it was still dark. Subconsciously, she reached out and touched her side, and found that the quilt beside her had long been cold. She didn’t know when Gu Dongqing left?
There was a noise at the door of the room on the grandparents’ side, and she also sat up, pulled the quilt away, and got out of bed. Gu Dongqing’s voice came from the yard.
Grandpa, grandma, get up. There is hot water in the pot. I’ll get it for you to wash your faces.” This man didn’t know how early he got up. He not only boiled the water but also cooked porridge in the pot.
Jiang Mingyue left the room, brushed her teeth and washed her face, then went to the kitchen to steam the buns. Now, in their kitchen, they always have the noodles they made last night, whether they eat them themselves or sell them in the morning.
Jiang Mingyue steamed twenty large meat buns and served them with white porridge and pickles, which was enough for the whole family.
It was still a few hours before dawn, and the mournful music from the second room of the Jiang family in the village came vaguely.
Jiang Mingyue decided to have breakfast and steam the buns at home. When you go out later, you can put it on the stove of the tricycle to heat it up.
Then when you get to town, you can sell it directly to customers. There is no school today, Saturday, and Jiang Manyue also wants to go to town with her. Jiang Mingyue agreed.
Then let’s go together as a family. Manyue and grandpa will take a bicycle, and I’ll take a tricycle with grandma.” It’s hard work for Gu Dongqing, who has to carry people and goods. She thought about putting two more pieces of meat in the bowl for him, “Eat more to gain strength.”
As the only strong worker in the family, he did the hardest and most energetic work every day. It won’t work without more supplements.
Gu Dongqing smiled very happily and didn’t mind at all how much work he did. His wife cares about him so much, let alone just doing a little work, even if he does it ten times more, he won’t feel tired.
After the family has eaten, they start making buns, dumplings, and steamed buns. The noodles were made last night, and the filling inside was just prepared by Jiang Mingyue. Just ask family members to help pack it.
Although the Jiang family are all old, weak, sick, disabled, and pregnant, they may not be able to do much physical work, but with this skill, they are still very fast. Including Jiang Manyue, who is only eight years old, is also good at making dumplings.
During this period, Jiang Mingyue’s ‘training’ for his family was very effective. After they had packed hundreds of steamers and occupied all the steamers, they stopped. We’ll get the rest in town.
The footsteps could be seen in the sky outside, so the family locked the courtyard door and set off to the town.
When passing by the path next to the village, the sound of gongs and drums specially played for funerals came from time to time, which made people panic.
Gu Dongqing, perhaps feeling something from his heart, pedaled a little faster, quickly passing through the village and arriving on the road outside.
It took Gu Dongqing less than fifteen minutes to ride a tricycle along several kilometers of road.
When they came to their stall on Wuyi Street, many stalls nearby had already opened. Jiang Mingyue didn’t waste any time. Everyone did the same thing and quickly opened the stalls.
Perhaps there are so many people setting up stalls on their street that a snack street has been formed here. He is somewhat famous in town. So on days like Saturday, in addition to people who work in nearby factories who come to buy breakfast in the morning, there are also some residents of the town who also come here looking for food.
Jiang Mingyue’s stall sells raw dumplings. People who are too lazy to make lunch will buy dozens of them, which is enough for the whole family’s lunch.
Today, Gu Dongqing and Jiang Mingyue stood in front of the steamer, responsible for bringing xiaolongbao, dumplings, and meat buns to the guests. The old man helped wipe the table and wash it.
Jiang Manyue and the old lady were busy making dumplings.
There were not enough raw dumplings to sell, so the two of them were busy without leaving their buttocks. Jiang Mingyue was also so busy that her forehead was covered with sweat.
Wife, go and have a rest.” Gu Dongqing saw that there were fewer people and quickly asked Jiang Mingyue to sit on the stool behind and rest. She had been busy all morning, and she was indeed a little tired and her waist was a little sore.
“Then you watch, I’ll sit for a while.”
Go quickly.” While they were talking, several young people dressed like students arrived.
They were all children of wealthy families in the town, and each of them ordered two cages of food, plus a full bowl of soy milk, which were devoured on the table on the side.
Jiang Mingyue sat on the cushioned stool and leaned back slightly. She looked at the people on the street.
The stall on her side had the most people, but there were also people in twos and threes at the other stalls, so there was no one at all.
Everyone is selling things in a friendly manner, and no one wants to attract customers by reducing prices. It can be seen that everyone knows that it is not the price that retains customers, but the taste.
When Jiang Mingyue thought of this, she felt relieved and smiled on her face. A good business environment cannot be achieved by one person.
Only when everyone works together to maintain a harmonious environment can we have such a harmonious environment. Everyone’s business skills are booming.
Jiang Mingyue was about to close her eyes and take a rest when a gust of wind blew, bringing with it a sour smell. She frowned, thinking it was the smell of a nearby factory.
When she looked up, she didn’t see black smoke coming from the factory. Instead, she saw stalls of water behind a stall selling vermicelli soup about ten meters away from her stall. The wind blew through the water, bringing bursts of sour smell.
On the edge of Goshui, there are many flies buzzing. Now that the weather has cooled down, there are still so many flies at this time, which shows that the problem of water drainage is not a one-day problem.
Jiang Mingyue decided to wait until there were fewer people and went to chat with the owner of the vermicelli soup.
Third sister?” Jiang Manyue, who was working, had sharp eyes and immediately saw Jiang Xinyue on the street.
Jiang Xinyue is also looking for them. “Master, grandma, brother-in-law, full moon.” She saw the person, smiled and walked over to say hello.
The old man and the old lady were very happy to see their granddaughter whom they had not seen for two months.
Gu Dongqing was also very happy. After all, who doesn’t like to hear this crisp cry of brother-in-law?
Xinyue is back.” Jiang Mingyue also said hello with a smile in her voice.
Jiang Xinyue came in from the outside and saw Jiang Mingyue sitting on the chair. Her eyes fell on her slightly protruding belly. She clicked her tongue and stepped forward.
Sister, in just two months, my little nephews have grown so big?” She said and wanted to reach out to touch Jiang Mingyue’s belly.
Jiang Mingyue smiled and told her not to mess around. “Are you hungry? Go eat when you’re hungry.”
I’m hungry. I specially saved my stomach to come back to eat the Jiang’s snacks that everyone praised!” Jiang Xinyue moved a stool and sat down next to Jiang Mingyue while eating.
As she talked, she was talking about how the classmates in the class were full of praise for the food her sister cooked.
Jiang Mingyue became interested.
A classmate in your class? Also from our town?
