Chapter 11 Discovering Business Opportunities
When the restless Aunt Niu was finally sent away, Chen Anan finally had time to cook delicious food.

"Mother, will it be a waste of oil if it is deep-fried?" Ning Bao had seen fried pancakes on the street when he was going to the market. Although he was young, he was always worried.

"Baby, you don't have to worry, mother will make money." Chen An'an was spinning around the stove very quickly.She dug out a spoonful of black noodles from the small vat, beat an egg in it to make it alive, and wrapped the pickled Chinese toon sprouts in the noodles, and then started frying.

The eight-point hot oil was put into the pot, and soon the unique smell of toon sprouts came out. Ning Bao was squatting in the yard washing shepherd's purse, and ran in after smelling the smell, and Xiao Hei was naturally not behind , wagging her little tail and wandering around Chen An'an's feet.

"Mother, it smells so good!" Ning Bao sniffed his little nose and looked into the pot with his feet on his feet.

Chen Anan was afraid that the hot oil would splash on him, so he took the little guy back, and while poking it with chopsticks, he said with a smile: "Baby, mother has done a lot today, and I will give it to you tomorrow morning." How about frying it, so you can take some as snacks on the way to the market? You eat first, and when Mother gets the money for the handkerchief tomorrow, she will take you to the shopkeeper to buy some delicious food Snacks, huh?"

The quiet farmyard, the warm farm life, and this sensible and well-behaved son, the more Chen Anan thinks about it, the more he feels complete.

Unexpectedly, the little guy suddenly stuck to his body, rubbed his little head against his body, and then Chen Anan heard him whine twice, and said in a childish voice: "Mother, you are so kind!" .”

"Silly treasure." Chen Anan laughed.

That night, if Chen An'an hadn't stopped him, Ning Bao would have almost eaten all the fried toon sprouts on the plate.

"Baby, come to mother." Chen An'an waved to Ning Bao after clearing away the dishes.

Ning Bao walked over slowly like a little old man, and wrapped his arms around her neck automatically.

This time, Chen An'an pulled him out of his arms, reached out and touched his swollen belly, frowned, then twisted Ning Bao's little nose and said: "Look, the little belly is full like this, you If you want to eat it, mother will make it for you every day, these Chinese toon sprouts are the best when they are tender in spring."

"Mother, Ning Bao doesn't want you to be too tired. Ning Bao wants to grow up and take care of mother." The little guy's eyes like black grapes looked straight at Chen An'an, and his little hands tightly grasped the skirt in front of her, Although the voice was soft, Chen Anan knew that the child was not joking.

Chen An'an lowered her eyes, and hugged the child tightly in her arms. In this world, she has no memories of the past, so it can be said that the family relationship is weak, and the most important thing is this child.

"Silly baby, mother is not very tired. Doesn't Ning Bao help mother every day? Help mother feed the chicks, help mother dig wild vegetables, our life will always get better and better, right?" As Chen Anan said, she lowered her head and rubbed Ning Bao's face.

Ning Bao pursed his mouth and nodded heavily, then smacked Chen An'an's face.

She has been boiling goat milk for Ning Bao these days, and the little guy's complexion has improved a little.

……

The next day, it was time to go to the market again.

Chen An'an boiled two bowls of cornmeal, and fried the Chinese toon sprouts. He went to the hillside and picked two clean large leaves, wrapped the Chinese toon sprouts, and put them in Ning Bao's small bag.

"The road is a bit long, eat when you're hungry, understand?" After explaining, the mother and son went out.

As usual, when she arrived at the fair, she went to Granny Hua first and handed over the ten handkerchiefs.

"Miss Chen, your craftsmanship is getting better and better." Granny Hua checked it out, and handed some copper coins to Chen An'an.

Chen Anan smiled: "The craftsmanship is exquisite, and I don't see my mother-in-law giving me a raise?"

"Hehe, this..." Granny Hua obviously didn't expect Chen Anan to make such a witty remark, so she just smiled and covered it up.

When the adults were talking, Ning Bao followed Chen An'an, eating the fragrant toon buds in small bites.

He had just finished eating the first one, when he suddenly felt a stare staring at him, raised his little head quickly and vigilantly, and then saw a little doll in a brocade robe standing beside the pavement, taller than himself Stronger, staring at the fragrant toon buds in his hand with wide eyes.

"Do you want to eat?" Ning Bao handed him the big leaf, the little boy was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect Ning Bao to be so generous, then he grinned, took out a leaf from it, and looked at Ning Bao again , and then creaked and bit.

Here, Chen Anan didn't see the interaction between the two children at all. After receiving the money, he took Xiaobao and left. The hot light coming.

I bought all the seeds that should be bought last time. Apart from buying some snacks for Ning Bao this time, Chen Anan mainly came to visit the people who do business in these big fairs. What kind of work will be delayed? If a business opportunity can be found, it must be something that can be paid for.

She took Ning Bao to buy some big bones first, and then weighed a catty of pastries, and then dragged him to watch the fun.

"Don't be crowded. The construction of our Xiping Reservoir will take at least a month. There are a lot of people needed. You all line up honestly. If anyone disturbs you, get out immediately." When Chen Anan walked to Dongxi Street, he suddenly saw the people in front A long line was formed, and a man with the appearance of an officer and soldier stood on a high place, and said loudly to the people around him.

"We need to build a reservoir!" Chen An'an stood where he was and muttered to himself.

"Yes, the reservoir is going to be built. I heard that the higher-ups pay special attention to it, so my man signed up. Anyway, the family doesn't have much land, so I can earn some subsidies by working for a month." An older sister who was watching the situation heard Chen Anan Said it very enthusiastically.

"A big reservoir, wouldn't that require a lot of people?" A thought gradually came to her mind.

The eldest sister nodded excitedly and said: "Yes, I heard that it will take 600 people. Sister, have you heard that our reservoir was built by corrupt officials and cut corners when it was built, and it collapsed directly in the flood the year before last. The matter is very big, so this time the higher-ups are determined to rectify it. This time, I don’t know how much money is, but it will definitely not be in arrears." The older sister became more and more happy as she talked, and Chen Anan was also very happy in her heart.

"Good boy, let's go with mother." Excited, Chen Anan hugged Ning Bao with one hand and rushed out of the crowd.
