Chapter 127 Su Rongrong is not dead, she is not doing well
Things had come to this point, Liu Miao had no choice but to let her go and had to agree.
"Okay! Rongrong, don't worry, I'll help you look after the family."
No matter how you look at it, her father is also partly responsible for this matter.
As a child, she couldn't blame her father or tell anyone about it. All she could do was to make amends as much as possible.
With Liu Miao's promise, Su Rongrong went back with peace of mind.
Since she didn't have to go out to the stall the next day, she rarely went to bed early at night.
Instead, he sat next to Su Manman and watched her record every expense of this month.
She received a total of more than 13 taels of dividends from the kang, and also received some coarse grains and coarse noodles.
Not to mention the food, the silver alone is quite a lot, enough to equal what many people would earn from working in the fields for four or five years.
You can earn more by growing vegetables.
But they are not available for sale every day, and as the weather gets warmer, many people will grow their own sprouts.
So in the end there were a little more than twenty-two taels in total.
These freshly picked vegetables were transported to the county town using Liu Quan's family's horse-drawn carriage, and she found people to sell them.
It can be clearly said that every penny earned from selling vegetables passed through Su Rongrong's hands.
So she probably knows how many there are!
Apart from that, Datou is still at Su Rongrong’s stall.
At the beginning, Su Rongrong and Liu Miao only sold soup dumplings and pan-fried dumplings in the morning.
Because Wei specially brought people to support the business, the business was extremely hot.
All the things they prepared were sold out in just an hour.
Seeing this celebrity effect, Su Rongrong decisively increased the variety.
So later on, it developed into a breakfast stall that couldn't be simpler, like a buffet, with a wide variety of food.
In addition to soup dumplings and pan-fried dumplings, they also have steamed buns, fried dough sticks and brown sugar sesame balls.
Afraid that these would cause choking, Su Rongrong added rice porridge, soy milk and hot and sour noodles.
Broken rice porridge is easy to understand. It is made from broken rice.
The hot and sour noodles are made by Su Rongrong herself using sweet potato flour.
As for soy milk, the price is set by the person who sells tofu.
Since she already had porridge and soy milk, she thought about it and added some tea eggs.
It can be said that originally the small stall could be run by two people.
However, as they sold more and more things, the stall eventually had as many as five people just washing dishes, clearing tables, and taking orders.
These five people do not include Su Rongrong, Liu Miao and Xiang Yang who made these things.
Yes, ever since Su Rongrong started setting up the stall, Wei saw that she was selling more and more things, so she simply stopped Xiangyang from doing it in the house, and instead went out to buy ready-made ones.
In this way, Xiangyang didn't have to worry about breakfast, and Su Rongrong's stall was too busy, so she said something to Wei and went to the stall to help.
She wanted to continue learning skills from Su Rongrong and was willing to help.
In order to repay her kindness, Su Rongrong taught Xiangyang how to make seaweed rice rolls and rice rolls over the past twenty days.
He even gave Wei a dish for free the day before he came back.
That's Omelette Rice!
Let's go off topic. As the stall grew bigger and bigger, the profit also increased from more than 200 wen on the first day to 400 or 500 or 500 or 600 taels later on.
And this is the result when Su Rongrong only did it until the Si hour.
If she worked for a whole day, she would earn at least 60 to 80 taels of silver at the end of the day.
Because she earned a lot, when Su Rongrong came back, after deducting the money for Tao Ya and the money for buying things for everyone, she still had more than fifty taels left.
After Su Manman simply recorded the expenses, she carefully counted the money and finally looked at Su Rongrong in amazement.
After a long while, she handed the account book to Su Qiaoqiao, who was half asleep.
Considering that both of her sisters were still awake, and considering what she had overheard before, Su Qiaoqiao didn't dare to sleep even though she was extremely sleepy.
When she saw what her third sister handed over, she took a look subconsciously.
What she cared about most was the income. When she saw her elder sister bringing back more than fifty taels of silver, the sleepiness in her mind instantly disappeared.
"Big sister, how did you make this money? You and Sister Tao Ya, did you really just set up a stall and didn't do anything else?
For example, what do you sell drawings of?
Did you also add the money for the pattern you drew earlier to this silver?"
If Su Qiaoqiao hadn't mentioned the pattern, Su Rongrong would have forgotten it.
She put all those things in the space.
She has been so busy lately that she even forgot to sell the pattern to the embroidery shop.
Thinking of this, she took out a stack of drawings from her sleeve pocket and placed them on the kang table.
Su Qiaoqiao saw it at a glance, and pursed her lips and said, "If setting up stalls is so profitable, then when the new year comes, we will rent out our land to others and let everyone set up stalls!
In this way, it would be more than one hundred taels a month, wouldn’t it be over a thousand taels a year?
Even if we deduct the cost of food and drink, there will be at least 500 to 600 or 700 to 800 taels left.”
Just thinking about it, Su Qiaoqiao felt overjoyed.
No wonder the third sister always said that perhaps they could live a rich life without relying on their eldest brother.
If they had half of their elder sister's ability, they probably wouldn't have to worry about anything in their lives.
What’s the big deal about owing ten taels of silver in foreign debt?
It only takes two days to pay it back!
What’s the big deal about the one hundred taels I owe Brother Zheng? It won’t take five years. I can pay it back in two months, okay?
When Su Rongrong heard her whimsical words, she reached out and touched her forehead.
“Don’t think that this is a lot of money, it’s because of special circumstances.
For example, on the first day, Wei Bo Niang, the county magistrate's wife, came to visit.
After that, won't the wives of the county lieutenant, the chief clerk, the county magistrate, and so on all have to come and show their support?
With all these people coming, won’t the common people follow suit?
As the weather is cold, I can prepare things like tea eggs and pork skin jelly for soup dumplings in advance.
Otherwise, why don’t you try it when the weather gets hot?
Okay, don’t think about anything. I’ve already thought about what I’m going to do for a living next year.
When the time comes, we will rent out half of the land, and grow crops on the remaining half ourselves.
As for setting up a stall or something like that, I don't have any plans for the time being. I'll have to wait until your eldest brother passes the county exam before deciding on anything.
But if you want to learn cooking from me, of course you can.
Even if I don't set up a stall temporarily, I will have to do it one day, and then you can help me, right?"
The two sisters, especially Su Qiaoqiao, nodded vigorously after hearing this: "Okay, big sister, I will learn from you.
I don’t think I have a talent for needlework, but maybe I’m only suitable for cooking.
You said you were leaving the day after tomorrow, so I’ll wait for you to come back and teach me.
Sister Taoya should know how to cook it in several ways now. I will ask her to come to our house and teach me later."
Seeing her excited face, Su Rongrong did not spoil her fun, but said: "Well, I believe you can do it!
Well, it’s getting late. Tomorrow is the Little New Year, so we can’t sleep in. Let’s go to bed early!”
After she finished speaking, she lay down, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
As for checking the firewood in the kang and turning off the lights, she didn't need to worry about it since she had two younger sisters.
She has been busy in the county for so long and it’s rare for her to come back, so let her take some time off!
Unlike the harmonious atmosphere at Su Rongrong's home, Su Xiang felt that she had been unlucky since she failed to kill Su Rongrong.
It can even be said that things have reached a point where nothing is going right.
