Chapter 44

Although pork now costs one yuan a pound, if you buy it for seven or eight taels, you can still make thirty cents. Wouldn't it be better to keep this money and save it as private money?

This Tian You family is usually good at everything, but she is stingy, which makes it even more difficult for her two daughters-in-law to make some private money. There are not many opportunities like this to make money openly.

But what’s better about her than Li Manman is that her husband will secretly leave one or two yuan every time when he pays his salary, so after accumulating for so long, he still has a private house with dozens of yuan in his hand.

Liu Xiaozhen carried her son back to the room, and soon changed into clothes that looked slightly better.

"Mom, I'll go pick up Yunyun first."

"Well, let's go."

Miao Xiaomiao was a guest, and Li Manman was Miao Xiaomiao's mother-in-law. It would be a bit bad if her mother-in-law's family came and sent Li Manman away, so she could only instruct Liu Xiaozhen to go.

When Tian Xiaoyun came back, Miao Xiaomiao and Li Manman were busy in the kitchen.

"Mom, cousin, I'm back."

As soon as Tian Xiaoyun came in, she hurriedly walked towards Li Manman.

“Mom, Second Auntie said I don’t have to go to the clothing store anymore?”

"Well, your cousin said she would take you to make wine together later."

As Li Manman spoke, he blinked at Tian Xiaoyun.

Making wine is an excuse, but finding a way for Li Manman and her daughter to escape from here is the real thing.

"Sister-in-law, Mom told me that your relatives are here, please stir-fry some meat."

Liu Xiaozhen also came back with meat at this time, but the money Tian You gave could buy one catty of meat, and the meat Liu Xiaozhen brought back was only half a catty at most.

Miao Xiaomiao looked at the meat left by Liu Xiaozhen, and the smile on her face froze instantly.

This Liu Xiaozhen got a good deal of kickbacks.

But now that the meat has come in, she will make clear arrangements for it.

Miao Xiaomiao first asked Tian Xiaoyun to cut some green onions and ginger, and then she cut the meat into thin slices.

When the rice was cooked, Miao Xiaomiao put the meat in and stir-fried.

Tian Xiaoyun, who hadn't eaten meat for a long time, couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Miao Xiaomiao smiled, shoveled a chopstick of meat from the pot and put it into Yunyun's mouth.

"Try it first."

Although there was no seasoning yet, the aroma of the meat made Tian Xiaoyun unable to help but lick her lips.

Halfway through the frying, Miao Xiaomiao realized that there was no salt and soy sauce on hand, so she asked Tian Xiaoyun:
"Yunyun, where are your salt and soy sauce?"

After hearing this, Tian Xiaoyun immediately ran outside. After a while, Tian You walked in slowly. When she saw the meat in the pot, she couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Miaomiao, why do you fry so much meat?"

Miao Xiaomiao responded and said:

"There are a lot of people at home. Besides, I didn't buy much meat. Even if I fry it all, it won't be enough for the afternoon."

Tian Youshi found out the locked salt and soy sauce, and immediately screamed when he heard that there was not enough for the afternoon.

"How can it not be enough for the afternoon? This can buy a pound of meat. Who eats meat and eats so much at once?"

Miao Xiaomiao took the seasoning, scooped some with a spoon and put it into the pot, then pointed at the pot and said:
"Grandma, this is just half a catty of meat in the pot." Tian You didn't know anything else at this time.

It's really shameful for the second son's family to take half of the kickback. ,

She didn't care about Miao Xiaomiao adding too much seasoning, she rushed out and shouted to Liu Xiaozhen:
"Younger's family, I think you're feeling itchy. You dare to take kickbacks on the money in the public account. I think you want to take over this family, right?"

When Liu Xiaozhen heard her mother-in-law yelling, her whole body trembled for a moment, and then she walked out with a flattering smile on her face.

"Mom, this is not a rebate. I don't want to get some pork to feed our family. Besides, pork is expensive now, so we can't be so extravagant just because we have two more Miao and Xiaomiao siblings."

As Liu Xiaozhen said this, she quickly took out thirty cents from her trouser pocket and handed it to Tian Youshi's hand.

Tian Youshi looked at Liu Xiaozhen, and then at Miao Xiaomiao's luxurious appearance in the kitchen.

Although Miao Xiaomiao was given 100 yuan today, who can bear such a loss, so it is better to save some money.

Besides, since these two siblings have moved in, there is no need for money for food, accommodation, or anything else. Even if I charge less, five yuan a day, that will be enough for more than 20 days.

I don’t know if they will give it back at that time.

Thinking of this, Tian You felt that what her second daughter-in-law said was good, and it would be better to save some money.

Miao Xiaomiao and others were busy in the kitchen, unaware of Tian You's plan.

When the rice was cooked, Tian Xiaoyun quickly called a few people over to eat.

As soon as Tian You saw the plate of meat on the table, he felt a sudden pain in his body.

This was meat for Miao Xiaomiao and her sister. Even if it was today's meal, she felt it was a waste.

But Miao Xiaomiao didn't seem to have the eyesight to see it. There were clearly several plates of vegetables on the table, but this girl actually chose meat to eat them all.

Tian You couldn't help but wrinkle her forehead as she looked at it, and finally shouted to Liu Xiaozhen:
"From the second child's house, your father and the eldest brother and the second child only come back for dinner in the evening. We all stay at home and do nothing. We have to leave something good for them."

When Liu Xiaozhen heard Tian Youshi's words, she immediately went to the cupboard and took out a plate. Tian Youshi immediately pulled half of the plate of steak onto another plate.

Seeing that there was only half of the meat left, Tian Youshi felt that it was a bit wasted, so he plucked it on the plate again. In the end, there was only a handful of meat left in the bowl.

Miao Xiaomiao looked at Tian Youshi's movements and looked at the dishes in front of her, her eyes couldn't help but twitch.

Li Muyun only gave them 100 yuan, and this old woman was going to deduct their food.

"Grandma, maybe you don't know, but my brother and I are growing taller, so we need to eat better."

"Well, you have to eat better."

Tian Youshi responded, then put a chopstick of radish into Miao Xiaomiao's bowl.

"Here, eat a piece of local ginseng, this is a supplement."

Miao Xiaomiao looked at Tian Youshi pretending to be stupid, put the chopsticks directly on the table, and then said to Tian Youshi with a serious face:,

"Grandma, if you think I am at a disadvantage by living in your house, then I can take my brother home now, but before I go home, please pay back the living expenses Li Muyun gave me."

Tian You paused for a moment while picking up the rice, then raised his head and looked at Miao Xiaomiao.

"Girl, if you stay here well, why don't you leave? Just live here. Grandma has no intention of driving you away."

Tian Youshi became anxious as soon as she heard that Miao Xiaomiao was leaving.

With the money in her hand, there is no reason to return it.
