Chapter 26

Hearing the truth from her husband, the woman was completely dumbfounded.

"This...what to do! We...we still have a way to survive!!"

The woman began to cry, and although the man was impatient, he still held back his anger, pulled her up from the ground, and calmed down to persuade her.

"Now I have a note, but you have to listen to me."

The woman stopped crying for a moment, and looked at her husband expectantly.

"how do you want to do it?!"

"Didn't I ask you to inquire about the situation in the nearby village?"

"Yes, I went to Sanhe Village and Xiashan Village today."

"Well, go to the other two villages tomorrow to inquire about it. We've got the target right, this time we'll make a big deal!!"

The woman was startled, "You still want to do it!? You are not afraid..."

The man interrupted her, "Listen to me first, this time we will leave Fuyuan County with the 'goods'."

"Leave? But this house was only built last year?!"

"What kind of house do you want? I will buy the house and the several acres of land. Our family of three will leave Qin Province and go to the south."

The woman opened her mouth wide in surprise, "South!? But..."

"Brother Fei and those people can do anything, and if they catch them, can we still live a good life? Not to mention the money we earn in the future, even the new house we built will fall into their pockets sooner or later! The only one now The only way is to leave with money, and I heard from my friends that the south is very profitable, we might live better there than now! Think about our son, because of our son, we can’t stay here and wait to die.”

Thinking of her son in elementary school, the woman's eyes became firm.

"Okay! Let's go to the south, what do you say next!?"

Seeing the change in his wife's expression, the man smiled.He walked to the door in two or three steps, looked around, and then closed the door.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Heping rushed to the school gate to pick up a few children from school.

As soon as the get out of class bell rang, the children rushed out of the school like birds released into the forest.The school gate, which was still silent before, suddenly boiled up, and the clear laughter of children was everywhere.

Zhang Heping immediately recognized her daughter in a red sweater among the crowd, and a group of little girls came chattering towards the school gate.

"Huimin!!" Zhang Heping called out.

Ning Huimin saw her mother, greeted her classmates, and ran towards her with a smile.

"Mom, are you here to pick me up?"

"Yes, where are your brothers?"

"I don't know, probably in the back?"

As Ning Huimin said, her eyes fell on the stalls at the school gate.

After school in the afternoon, many small stalls like this will appear near Fuyuan County Primary School.There are everything for sale, food and play.Children, they have no resistance to these at all.

Scallions came from the tip of her nose, and Ning Huimin smelled it, and took her mother to a stall that bought pancakes.

"Mom, I want to eat this."

Zhang Heping is not a stingy person, and today is her daughter's first day of school, so she will still meet this requirement.

"Okay, wait for your brothers to come later, and mother will buy together."

Just as he was talking, he saw his youngest son walking towards the school gate in the crowd.

Zhang Heping yelled, Zhang Wei's eyes lit up, and he squeezed over.

After waiting for a while, I picked up the eldest son and the second son, and then bought four pancakes for the children. After thinking about it, I bought a bag of maltose and put it in my pocket.

As soon as I got home, my husband and father-in-law also came back from the field.

The children washed their hands and went to the main room for dinner.A large bowl of fried golden and crispy pancakes was brought to the table, and the eyes of several children were wide open.

"Grandma, what is this? Did sister Qiu do it again?" Ning Qiang asked.

Coincidentally, Ning Qiu also brought a small pot over, and said with a smile. "I made it with my grandma."

Ning Jian turned around and asked, "Sister, what is this?"

"You'll know after a while," Ning Qiu said.

The children were eager to move, and finally waited for the elders to sit down, and immediately stretched out their chopsticks to pick them up.

Ning Qiang took the first bite, "This...is a white radish?"

Ning Qiu smiled, "Yes, this is shredded radish pancake."

In fact, this is a southern snack called Youdunzi, which needs to be made with abrasive tools.But Ning Qiu didn't have any grinding tools at hand, so he could only make cakes, but the taste was the same.

Ning Cheng also praised after eating, "I didn't expect white radish and white noodles to be so delicious."

Ning Jian took a bite of the shredded radish cake and drank the polenta, his mouth was vague. "That's right, this taste is even more delicious than the pancakes eaten at the school gate!"

"Is there a lot of food in front of the school?" Ning Qiu asked.

"Yes, there are sugar cakes, oil cakes, hemp sticks and baked sweet potatoes."

Ning Wei interjected, "There are also notebooks, pencil erasers, and plastic figurines."

"Is it so lively at the gate of the school?" Ning Cheng was also surprised.

It was Zhang Heping who spoke, "The primary school and the junior high school are next to each other. After school in the afternoon, the area is very lively. There are small street stalls from one end of the street to the other, selling underpants."

Ning Qiu blinked and asked, "Fried pancakes? Isn't it the kind of pancakes fried in oil?"

Ning Qiang raised his head, "Yes, it's delicious."

"The elder brother thinks this radish cake is delicious, or oil cake?"

Ning Qiang said without thinking, "Of course this is delicious!"

Ning Qiu asked Zhang Heping again, "Auntie, how much is a pancake?"

"Five cents, sugar cakes and hemp sticks are ten cents."

"Then if our radish cake is sold, will anyone buy it for a dime?"

Zhu Ximei's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Yes, we can sell this too! White radishes are worthless, every household has them, and we can't finish them all."

Zhang Heping's eyes brightened, "One dime, even if you can only sell ten pieces a day, you will still earn 30 yuan in one month, which is more than a worker's salary!"

Ning Cheng was also moved. You must know that their family's annual income is only more than [-] points, and this is still a good year.

And it doesn't cost much to do this, pots and oils, I usually use them at home.Not to mention white radish, there is a piece of it in the backyard.

"I think you can try it. When the wheat is planted, there will be no work in the field, and I can help out then."

Ning Qiu was moved when he saw several people, and proposed again. "If you really want to do this business, you need to make some grinding tools, and you need to get a small stove to stand on the cart."

"Qiu, how do you know so much!?" Ning Cheng looked at his little niece in disbelief.

"When I was in Haishi before, I saw someone selling it, and the business was good."

"What kind of grinding tool is that?"

"Well... I can't tell clearly, I'll draw a picture for uncle later."

The family discussed this matter at night, and Ning Qiu gave Ning Cheng the painted mold.

Ning Hongfu hugged Qiu and stroked her head with a smile on his face.

"Don't worry about this, just get things ready first."

"Yeah, after the mold is made, let's practice our hands first, and then we can sell it when we are done."

"The pot in our house is too big, I can make it smaller."

"Well, it doesn't need to be too big to make a clay stove compared to a pot, and it's not convenient to carry it if it's too big."

Everyone chatted vigorously with each other, everyone had a smile on their faces and a longing for the future.
