Chapter 54
Xie Xiuwen called the third child, and then went to the county with the two children.

Xie Xiuwen went to Liu's restaurant first, making sure that their business was good and that they seemed to have enough manpower, so he went to buy a boxing gift for his husband in the county.

Xie Xiuwen has been studying so far, naturally there are several teachers who have taught him.

The first one should be Liu Ruolan's father.

After Xie Xiuwen finished his business, the children were also hungry, so they happened to take them to Liu's restaurant for dinner.

In the previous summer, the business was affected a bit, but Xie Rongzhao reminded them that the hot and sour noodles can be boiled and then cooled, so that they will not be so hot after eating.

And Liu Lao Er is also active in his mind. In the hottest two months of summer, they simply sell cold noodles: cold noodles with fried sauce or cold noodles with scallion oil.

This kind of pasta is very common in Gaoyang County, so the price of Liu's restaurant is not high, and the profit is obviously not as high as that of hot and sour noodles and chicken soup rice noodles.

But you can’t let your family earn all the money.

When business is booming, there must be an off-season, so that other buyers and sellers will not be jealous.

After Xie Xiuwen finished eating, he was called to the backyard by Liu's second child to talk.

"Look at the ledger first. This shop has been open for more than four months, and the business is worse in the hottest two months. It is usually good. The monthly profit is also recorded on it. You He didn’t come back, so we kept the money first, no points.”

Xie Xiuwen glanced roughly, and after hearing what he said, he quickly turned to the last page.

It is marked on it that the restaurant currently has a cash balance of 270 taels and a profit of 210 taels.

This number is already quite impressive.

After all, such an unremarkable small restaurant can earn more than 210 taels in four months, which is still a very good profit.

"Brother-in-law, we're just looking forward to your coming back. It just so happens that the festival is coming up, and we're also thinking about buying some things. How do we divide the money?"

Xie Xiuwen only wanted [-]% of the shares at the beginning, so based on this calculation, he and the three uncles would share the same amount.

"How does father-in-law plan?"

Liu Laoer laughed: "My father said that the money in this account can be divided, and the balance is 270 eight taels. My father said that the split is 200 taels, and the remaining 70 taels will be kept for emergencies. need."

Xie Xiuwen nodded, just as he wanted.

"I don't have any opinion, why don't we divide according to father-in-law's wishes."

"That's daring!"

Liu Laoer slapped his thigh, and if the points are divided, then the brothers can each get 40 taels of silver, which is not a small amount of money!

And by the end of the year, it should be possible to divide it again.

"By the way, second brother, how many of you are getting paid for your hard work in this restaurant?"

Liu Laoer said indifferently: "It's all my own business, what kind of work do you want!"

"inappropriate."

Xie Xiuwen frowned and said, "It's just that you have no disagreement with the third uncle, but there are still a few juniors. Tomorrow I will take Ruolan and Guaibao to pay my respects to my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I will discuss this matter with my father-in-law."

Liu Er Er thought it was no big deal.

This time, it doesn't matter if you can share 40 taels of silver, whether you get paid or not!
When he went back, Xie Xiuwen had two more bank notes and a small silver ingot in his arms.

Xie Xiuwen showed Liu Ruolan both the bank notes and the silver ingots. The bank notes cost ten taels each, and the silver ingots cost ten taels each.

"How many households do you have there?"

Liu Ruolan immediately hugged the money box she had hidden before. There were more than [-] copper plates on it, and there was a small partition at the bottom. She opened it cleverly, revealing the banknotes and coins inside.

"Back then Mei Lan and Hu San paid me a total of 30 taels of silver, and they are all here."

Xie Xiuwen glanced at it and nodded slightly: "If you find it inconvenient to keep it, I can exchange it for a bank note."

"It's not inconvenient, anyway, there is no place to spend money at home."

What Liu Ruolan didn't say directly was, even if she had money, would she dare to spend it in the Xie family's house?

"I bought [-] eggs this time, and I just said that it was given by a few brothers. You can use these to make custard later."

Xie Xiuwen did this because he wanted to make Auntie less scold Liu Ruolan.

"This time, the third brother helped a lot, and Laifu and his nephew also contributed. It happened to be in time for the holiday, so I bought a lot of things. Later, you will go with me to the village chief and patriarch Home."

"it is good."

Liu Ruolan's heart was warm, and the husband was willing to take her out to meet the elders, which showed that he respected her as a lady in his heart.

Xie Xiuwen came to the door with his wife to thank him. Both the village head and the patriarch were very happy.

They are all from the same clan, and they don't want to do anything, but Xie Xiuwen knows how to behave.

Xie Xiuwen handed a purse to the elder grandson of the village chief, thanking him for being willing to dress up as a woman to clean up Liu Ruolan's stigma.

The young man opened it and saw that it was a few silver melon seeds.

Xie Laifu on the side saw it, and his heart tightened: "Brother, this is impossible! They are all from our own family, why do you need to be so out of touch?"

Xie Xiuwen smiled and stopped them from returning the things.

"Brother Laifu is right, we are all family members, so what's wrong with me giving something to my eldest nephew?"

I can't take this!
In the end, the village head smiled and nodded.

Xie Xiuwen sat for a while, then took his wife to the patriarch's house.

Xie Laifu sent people outside the gate, and when he came back, he saw his village chief father sitting there foolishly.

"Father, are you okay?"

The village chief's good mood was interrupted, and he gave him a look: "You little rascal, what are you talking about!"

Xie Laifu rubbed his hands and came over: "Father, why do you think my cousin is so generous? In the past, he didn't have much money in his hand. Could it be that Auntie figured it out?"

The village head glared at him: "What do you know? Don't say that there is 30 taels of compensation from the Liu family, but that the business of the Liu family restaurant is booming. Do you think they can not take care of the only brother-in-law?"

Xie Laifu thought so too, they went to Liu's restaurant to eat that day, and it was indeed quite lively.

"I think Xiuwen is very different from the past when he comes back this time. Let's see, this child will have great fortune in the future!"

Xie Laifu twitched his mouth, returning the child!He is the father of the child!
To celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, the brothers all have to go to Yue's house, so naturally this etiquette must be uniformly prepared.

Auntie Xie was somewhat reluctant at first, but for two nights in a row, the old man warned her not to do anything else, so no matter how unwilling she was, she could only prepare the same thing for her three sons.

But in private, he took another three catties of mutton for Xie Xiuran alone.

Xie Laosan cheerfully accompanied Wang back to her mother's house, and he still had five taels of silver from his second brother in his arms!
