Chapter 137 Controlling Costs
In the evening, I smoked one of the rice cakes I made with Mrs. Fu before, and the whole family ate hot fried rice cakes.
Although it is a fried rice cake, it comes with soup, and the boiled rice cake with a piece of tofu is even more soft and smooth. There are shredded pork and eggs, thinly sliced and shredded on top.
"Mother, it's so delicious." An An's little head was buried in the pottery bowl.
Xiao Cheng also ate his head down and didn't have time to speak.
Gu Chunzhu took a piece of tofu in his mouth and ate it, and wiped his mouth with An An who was licking his mouth, "This bowl will be gone, if you eat too much rice cakes, you will have to accumulate food."
"I know what food accumulation is. Last time, Da Zhuang Niang said that Xiaolai has accumulated food. He is even more greedy than An An." The little girl muttered and saw that there was only some soup in her bowl, her eyes couldn't stop He glanced at Su Wangqin's bowl.
"It's fine to eat a few more." Su Wangqin was about to put the rice cake over there, when Gu Chunzhu glared at him, and the rice cake fell back into the bowl as soon as his hand trembled.
He glanced at the little girl helplessly. It's not that your father doesn't love you, but your mother doesn't let you eat it.
"An An has a good memory. You didn't forget that when Xiao Lai ate too many glutinous rice balls and rolled around with stomach pain, you even asked the doctor to drink bitter medicine." Gu Chunzhu lowered his head and said to the little girl with a shriveled mouth.
"I don't want to drink bitter medicine." An An covered her mouth.
Her eyes looked in Xiaocheng's bowl again, and seeing that her brother had eaten and didn't add any more, she held the bowl obediently, and said to herself, "An An is obedient and sensible, no more rice cakes, drink soup soup."
Saying that, he tilted his neck and poured the soup into the "gulugulu".
"Chunzhu, the rice cakes are usually sliced and steamed as a staple food. Where did you learn this?" Su Wangqin also ate a pottery bowl upside down, and said contentedly, touching his warm body, this soup is watery. The whole person is warm.
Gu Chunzhu's eyelashes trembled, and her eyes sparkled: "I used to learn from my aunt who lived next door to my mother's house. She married a little further south."
According to the fact that there is no snow in Xiaohetou Village in winter, Gu Chunzhu estimated that the location here should be in the south-central part.
As for this fried rice cake, it was the Shengzhou fried rice cake that was sold on the snack street where she lived in her previous life. It was her favorite in winter. If she ate too much and the method was not complicated, she would steal it from her.
After the winter, he can give him the whole Shaxian snacks by himself.
The family of four was full and went to bed early after taking a shower. Su Wangqin still hit the bed with the oil lamp on.
In a daze, Gu Chunzhu felt his hands hug her tightly and swam around her.
"Brother Wang!" Gu Chunzhu opened his eyes and saw those eyes in the night that were brighter than those of cats.
"It didn't work out in the morning." Su Wangqin said in her ear.
Originally, he slept on the outermost side, Gu Chunzhu slept on the innermost side, and the two children slept in the middle. In order to do something sneakily, Su Wangqin also squeezed to the innermost side.
When he touched his hand, he pinched a soft little hand. Su Wangqin moved An An's little hand from Gu Chunzhu's stomach. Unexpectedly, this movement would wake up the little girl.
"Father is bad, don't rob my mother with me..." An An opened her big eyes and closed her eyes again when she saw that it was Su Wangqin under the bright moonlight that came in from the cattail mat in the window.
Su Wangqin was like being caught for doing something bad, and his whole body was tensed up.
"Let's wait for the big bed to come out." Gu Chunzhu was also embarrassed, and it was really inappropriate in front of the child.
She pointed to the outside of the bed, and Xiaocheng was about to fall out after squeezing it out.
"It's done!" Su Wangqin reluctantly restrained his impulse, got up from Gu Chunzhuxiang's soft side and burned to the outermost side, and glanced at An An jealously.
The little guy was in a daze and hung his hands around Gu Chunzhu's neck.
Gu Chunzhu was tired and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, she heard the sound of water sounding outside the kitchen. Who is taking a shower in the middle of the night? It's sick, she complained in her heart.
Early the next morning, Gu Chunzhu got up early.
Seeing her high-spirited appearance, as if she would be anxious not to let her go to town, Su Wangqin let her eat porridge before letting her go. No time to make waves.
Gu Chunzhu went straight to the cloth village in the town.
The owner of the cloth shop, Tu, is also Gu Chunzhu's old business. She asked for a hard, impermeable tarpaulin, and a piece of absorbent gauze, and a lot of cotton.
Boss Tu asked the guys to go to the warehouse and found them for Gu Chunzhu.
"Little sister-in-law, look at this oilcloth, it's light, thin and impermeable." Boss Tu held a piece of oilcloth in his left hand and a piece of gauze in his right, "This gauze is also very good, and soft, your home If there is a little baby who urinates and feces, just wipe it with this gauze and it won't hurt the skin."
"What's the price?" Gu Chunzhu asked, not knowing whether the menstrual towels would sell well or not, we had to control the cost first.
"The oilcloth is a little more expensive, it costs ten cents a foot, and the gauze is six cents cheaper."
"Is there a cheaper cloth?" Gu Chunzhu believed that the price offered by Boss Tu was also fair, but if she made disposable menstrual towels, it would have to be cheaper.
"This price is not cheap." Boss Tu widened his eyes, blowing his beard angrily and said, "There is nothing better than me in this whole Mulian town.
It sells the cheaper second floor, or you can go to the county town and ask. "
"No, no, of course, it's better to apply the boss's cloth. Even if I'm short of money, I just want to ask if there is such a cheap cloth. It can be used for a long time, or it can be eaten by worms. "Gu Chunzhu thought that it was a one-time event anyway, and whether it was secure was second.
After saying this, Boss Tu felt more comfortable. He also remembered that a few batches of cloth had been transported, and the color was mottled after the carriage leaked and got wet.
The young man moved the batch of cloth to Gu Chunzhu's eyes.
"This is a muslin cloth. It doesn't look good when it gets wet. I'll sell it to you for five cents a foot." Boss Tu shook his head and sighed. If there was a problem with the delivery of the goods, it would be folded in the warehouse. It's better to be cheap. sold.
Seeing Gu Chunzhu holding the cloth and shaking his head, Boss Tu took the cloth back in dissatisfaction, "If you think it's too expensive, go to another place."
"No, no, no, it doesn't matter if there's one that's broken in a single tear, it doesn't matter if you put it away for a few more years." Gu Chunzhu also sacrificed his face in order to calculate the cost.
"Clothes made of this kind of cloth can't be worn a few times. It's immoral to sell such cloth." Boss Tu shook his head, he was an honest businessman.
"Either wear it or use it, and throw it away after one use. If there is a problem, I will never call you!" Gu Chunzhu swears.
Seeing how serious she was, Boss Tu felt that she was not here to entertain herself, so he asked the little guy to go to the warehouse and take out the fabrics that had been sitting for several years. The fabrics were covered with thick dust.
"If you really want to buy it, give me half a dollar and take it here!" Boss Tu waved his hand generously.
In the past, those fabrics that had been stored for a long time and could not be made into clothes were all thrown away as garbage when cleaning the warehouse. Since Gu Chunzhu wanted it, he gave it to her.
