Early the next morning, before dawn, Su Yue got up with the drowsiness and handed over the prepared cakes to the old lady Han, "Mister, I made a lot of cakes last night, and today I will give Aimin one. I guess people can’t be too busy. If you ask Brother Han or Brother Han to help out, I will give you 40% of the profit."
The old lady Han saw five big sieves of pastries, and said hurriedly: "This is too much, so many Aimin can't sell it all by one person in one day. I will ask the second and third children to help. The profit made will be made according to the original two-percent profit."
Su Yue waved her hand, "Well, madam, how can you get 20% of the benefits as long as your family members are busy, this is too bad, just follow the 40%."
Seeing that Mrs. Han still refuses, Su Yue pursed her lips, and said with a bit of enthusiasm: "Auntie, you will keep the money you make. You will treat Brother Han's legs in the future. Brother Han's legs will definitely be cured and the money will still be spent. After that, don't refuse."
If the old lady Han didn’t know about her and Han Aiguo’s affairs, she wouldn’t say this, but now that old lady Han knows it, she won’t be twitching anymore. Anyway, she and the old lady have the same purpose, that is Treating Han Aiguo's legs, so she doesn't feel bad about giving more money to the Han family.
Hearing Su Yue's words, the old lady Han was stunned for a moment, and then she looked at Su Yue's eyes indifferently moved. She held her hand tightly in her hand, her eyes were red, "Good boy, thank you , You have this heart, the aunt will always remember that the aunt will not be polite to you. When the aunt saves enough money, I will take your brother Han to the big hospital in the provincial capital to see his legs, and he will be cured. Don't worry, even if the patriotic legs cannot be cured, the aunt can do it."
I'm not worried, madam, I'm not worried at all.
Su Yue heard the old lady's voice-over, and it seemed that the old lady was also very upset about Han Aiguo's legs. She was also afraid that she would dislike Han Aiguo's legs and leave, so she wanted to try her best to calm her heart.
Su Yue comforted the old lady and said, "Auntie, Brother Han's leg will definitely be cured. Let's save more money and take Brother Han to see the leg. If a hospital doesn't work, change one. There will always be a cure."
"Yes, yes, there is always something that can be cured." The old lady Han was not so confident about Han Aiguo's treatment of his legs, but after listening to Su Yue's words, her heart became firmer in an instant. She is confident. With the motivation to make money, I hurried to order Han Laosan and Han Laosi to sell cakes, and confessed them in detail, for fear that they might make mistakes.
Han Lao Er and Han Lao San are also very positive about selling cakes to make money. They promised Mrs. Han that they would sell them well, then put the cakes in the back basket, and cover the back basket tightly with waterproof tarpaulin. He promised that he would not get caught in the rain, so he put on the clothes and went to town with Han Aimin behind.
Su Yue guessed that the pastries should be sold out today, so she went into the kitchen and continued to make the pastries that will be sold tomorrow. It was still Han Aiguo who helped to burn the fire. In addition to making the same pastries as today, Su Yue also made extra A few new foods: donkey roll, dorayaki and egg yolk crisp.
By the time Su Yue was ready, it was already evening, and the sky was getting dark, but the three Han brothers did not come back.
The old lady was a little worried. Standing at the gate and looking towards the entrance of the village, the second daughter-in-law of Han and the third daughter-in-law were also upset, for fear that something might happen, she would worry about whether the cakes could not be sold for a while. I also worry about being caught and speculating.
Fortunately, the three Han brothers finally came back before the sky was completely dark.
The daughter-in-law of Han Lao San was the first to rush to take the basket on Han Lao San's back, and couldn't wait to ask: "How is it going? Is it sold out?"
The second wife of Han also went forward to pick up her man's back basket, "Did something happen? Aimin never came back so late in the past."
Han Lao Er drank saliva from the porcelain jar. Han Lao San couldn’t wait to drink without drinking any water.
It’s all sold out. The three of us went to three places to sell them. All of them are sold well. We have one cake in the basket. Nothing left. We were able to come back when the sun went down, but Comrade Jiang from Midway Textile Factory asked us to talk about something, so it was delayed."
The old lady Han had already brought the hot food to the table from the kitchen, "Eat first, let's be hungry, and say as you eat."
After a busy day, I bought two steamed buns in the town at noon. At this time, I was so hungry that my chest was on my back. When I sat down, I grabbed my chopsticks and snored and ate until my stomach was half full. The topic just now: "Comrade Jiang said that she has a relative in the city who wants to buy cakes from you. She didn't say anything about it. We only let us bring you a message for Su Zhiqing. I want to see you tomorrow and talk to you in person. Say."
Su Yue nodded thoughtfully.
A few people quickly finished their dinner, and then they couldn’t wait to take out the money they earned today and report it to Su Yue. The second Han said: "Educated youth Su, all the money earned today is here, and it’s not all money. Many people are willing to exchange tickets, as long as the tickets are sold at the market price."
There is a lot of money on the table, and there are many tickets. At a glance, there are food tickets, meat tickets, non-staple food tickets, and many cloth tickets.
Su Yue's eyes brightened when she saw the cloth ticket, she looked down at her ugly clothes, as if she had seen hope.
Others didn’t notice Su Yue’s excitement. Second Han was still saying:
When we came back, we went to the Grain Management Office and bought the flour, oil and other things that Su Zhiqing asked for. After we bought it, we counted and left fifty-two yuan. Money, five catties of food stamps, two catties of meat tickets, one catty of sugar tickets, one catty of oil tickets, and two feet of cloth tickets. Educated youth Su, are you right?"
"Thanks for your hard work." Su Yue did not count, and directly divided 40% of the money and handed it to them, "This is the money you deserve."
The two daughters-in-law of the Han family started to look at the money, but the three brothers said to the old lady Han: "Mother, you take it."
Old lady Han took a look at the two wives and took the money.
Su Yue pretended not to see the subtle atmosphere between the old lady and the two daughters-in-law, and then divided the votes he got. The other votes were all divided by 40%, but the votes were not divided, "Mother, I think If I make a dress, I will not share it with you, but I will pay you more for the food stamp."
The old lady said very simply: "Okay, you have all the cloth tickets. You are a young, light and beautiful girl who wants to make more beautiful clothes. In the future, if you have cloth tickets, you will keep it and let’s not wait until you have enough cloth. , Madam makes clothes for you, not madam blowing, my aunty is good at making clothes."
Su Yue was eager to hear it. It happened that she didn't know anything about needlework and she was worried about what to do if she had cloth. Now Aunt Han is willing to make it for her, that's really great.
I couldn't help holding the old lady's arm and rubbing affectionately, "Thank you, madam."
The old lady Han squinted her eyes, "Thank you, don't be polite with the auntie." Anyway, it's her eldest daughter-in-law, what a dress is.
Han Aiguo glanced at Su Yue holding his mother's arm, his eyes flashed with envy that no one noticed.
After dividing the money and the ticket, Su Yue filled her share, and the old lady also took the 40% of her own home into her pocket.
Seeing that the old lady took all the money and didn't give the brother a few points, the third wife of Han couldn't sit still, and asked Ai Ai, "Mother, have you taken all the money you got?"
The old lady Han took the money and looked up at her, "What do you want to say?"
Han Laosan saw that his wife was about to speak, and he knew what she was trying to say. He quickly pulled her arm under the table to beckon her to stop talking, but she was ignorant, and said courageously, "Mother, my family loves the party. The fourth brother has been running hard for a day outside, and his legs ran a thin circle. Shouldn't they get some hard money? Anyway, give them two yuan to spend."
The old lady Han did not answer her, but looked at the second wife of Han and asked: "The second wife, what do you mean?"
The second daughter-in-law of Han was named and felt a little at a loss. Seeing that everyone was watching her, she hesitated, then lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Mother, we three children, we can't pay for anything if we want to buy something for them."
This is what it means to want to divide money.
Old lady Han sank, "We haven't separated yet, the fourth child hasn't gotten married, and your elder brother hasn't gotten married. Isn't it possible that you want to divide money regardless of your family? How can such a good thing happen?"
The third wife of Han said, "Mother, we didn't mean to divide the money, but the pocket money. We didn't have much money in our hands since we got married."
Mrs. Han patted the table, "Do you eat less or wear less in our house? You have a worse life than other daughter-in-laws? You can't start a family by yourself and ignore this family. Your elder brother and younger brother have not yet started a family. Besides, the most important thing in our family right now is your eldest brother’s leg injury. Your elder brother’s leg has to be treated at a big hospital. All of these have to cost money. After the money is distributed to you, where can I go to see the leg?"
When the third wife of Han heard it, she looked at Han Aiguo's legs, and muttered unhappily: "Didn't the doctor at the eldest brother's leg hospital say that it can't be cured?" Is it necessary for a family to earn money to make money?
The latter sentence, the third wife of Han, didn't dare to say it, but it was enough to make the old lady angry. The old lady scolded: "What do you mean? Don't want to waste money to treat your eldest brother's legs?"
Without waiting for the third wife to speak, the old lady stared at Han and Han and said: "At the beginning, your eldest brother worked hard in the army, and he was not willing to spend the money he earned. They are all sent home. Without your eldest brother, would you be able to marry a daughter-in-law now? You are all bachelors! Now that you have a family, you don’t want to care about your eldest brother? Are your hearts black!"
Han Lao San hurriedly gave his mother a favor, "Mother, don't be angry, don't listen to Fangzi's nonsense, we don't mean this, elder brother's leg needs to be treated, we earn money to treat him, mother, don't worry."
The second Han also echoed: "Mother, the third child is right, how can we ignore the big brother, you take all the money, we don't want it."
Hearing the current Han Aiguo raising his head, he finally said: "Mother, my leg is going slowly, but I can't spend all my money on my leg injury. My nephews and nieces are big and need Expenses, you will keep the money earned by the second and third in the future—"
"What nonsense?" The old lady Han interrupted. "At the beginning, you made money to raise your brothers and this family. You can't let them get married now and don't care about your eldest brother. This matter is useless, as long as there is no difference for a day. Family, the money earned by the family is from this family, and no one should try to put it in their own pockets."
Seeing his stubborn mother, Han Aiguo sighed, thinking about persuading her in private, not wanting to be so unpleasant, he said to Han Lao Er Han Lao San: "You have been tired all day, go wash and sleep."
Han Lao Er and Han Lao San hurriedly nodded, and took their respective daughter-in-laws back to the room. As for the noisy or noisy return to the room, outsiders don't know.
Su Yue was embarrassed at this time. She was an outsider, but she didn't want to hear about the family conflicts in the audience, which was caused by her indirectly.
It is better to know that she should return to the house after all the money is allocated than to sit here and listen to family conflicts.
Old lady Han saw Su Yue's uncomfortableness, and patted her hand unashamedly and said, "I asked you to watch a joke."
"No, no." Su Yue didn't know what to say, so she stood up and said, "Mother, I will go to town tomorrow to meet Comrade Jiang. I will go to bed early tonight."
Old lady Han waved her hand, "Go and go, there is hot water in the pot, so you can wash directly."
Su Yue hurriedly left, leaving the old lady and Han Aiguo in the hall.
As soon as Han Aiguo wanted to speak, Mrs. Han intercepted his words, "Boss, don’t persuade me, my mother is not an old fool, nor is she a wicked mother-in-law. My mother thinks that all four of your brothers have a good life. Close to the second and third. Now they are settled. Now the mother has to consider you and the fourth. The fourth is not anxious. Now the most important thing is you. Your legs must be cured, and the money mother must be prepared. Yes, don't say anything, just listen to your mother."
Han Aiguo knew that his mother was stubborn, and once a decision was made, no one could get it back, and he didn't know how to persuade him at the moment.
Early the next morning, Su Yue cleaned up early. She will go to town with the three Han brothers today. After all, Sister Jiang will not look for her for no reason.
Who knew that when he was going out, he saw Han Aiguo standing at the gate with a walking stick, as if about to go out.
"Are you going out?" Su Yue was puzzled.
Han Aiguo took what she was carrying, "I will go with you."
Su Yue twisted her eyebrows, "What are you going to do? Your legs can't run back and forth, don't go, I'll be back soon."
Han Aiguo shook his head, "I'm going to town to send a telegram to a friend in the city, asking him to inquire about the prescription for treating the legs, and if I find the prescription soon, I hope that my legs will get better sooner."
Su Yue was shocked, she didn't expect that he was going to inquire about the prescription, but there was no prescription in the city, this was simply made up by her to deceive him, how could it be possible to find out.
Su Yue had no choice but to say: "The prescription is rather biased, and there should be few people who know it. After all, the old Chinese doctor does not stay in a fixed place, but I have asked people I know to inquire, and I will tell me the news. , Don’t go, you can take a trip back and forth."
Han Aiguo was stubborn to go, "If you ask if you ask, I hope you can find that prescription sooner and heal your legs sooner."
His eyes were too serious, Su Yue knew that he couldn't persuade him, so she had to let him go, but she was sorry to him because he was destined to be unable to find out any news.
Because Han Aiguo's legs can't walk too much, Han Aimin went to the brigade to borrow a mule cart early in the morning, and several people took the mule cart to town.
Su Yue left two baskets of pastries and said to others: "Yesterday Aimin said that some people in the textile factory belonged to the yard who wanted to buy pastries but did not buy them. I will take these and continue selling them. You will take the remaining pastries to other places. Sell, we will gather here when it's sold out, and then go back together."
Everyone has no objections, and now they go to their favorite places to sell cakes.
Su Yue went straight to Sister Jiang's house.
Sister Jiang knew that Su Yue would be coming today, and she specially adjusted a day shift with her colleagues, and stayed at home today waiting for Su Yue.
Su Yue put the cakes on the table, straight to the point, "Sister Jiang, what's the matter with you looking for me?"
