299 Can You Handle It?
“That son of a b*tch!” Wang Sufen started to curse after catching her breath.
However, no one paid her any attention. Instead, that person said to another person, “I heard that the rich family is going to build a workshop. They’ve already told Qingshu and the others that they’ll build it the day after tomorrow. Have you heard of it?”
“I’ve heard about it. It’s going to be built on that mountain. Didn’t you see that the rich family is already clearing that area?”
“Why are they going to build it on the mountain?”
“How would I know? But where did the money come from? Forget it, only they would know.” He had asked it so many times that he was too lazy to guess how much money they had.
The others were the same.
Only when Wang Sufen heard this, she became even angrier. She was so angry that she felt like her heart was being torn apart, and she felt even more uncomfortable.
Although Jiang Yue didn’t see Wang Sufen’s expression, she could guess what was going on. However, she didn’t try to guess as she wouldn’t waste time on something she didn’t care about. She just sat on the ox cart and returned home with Xue Yan and Xue Sifu.
When the family saw them coming back, they all asked anxiously, “How was it? How did it go?”
When they heard that it was all sold out and that it was sold out very quickly, everyone was delighted.
When they heard that it was the result of her and Xue Yan’s promotion, Liu Guixia and the others laughed without Xue Sifu saying anything, “Then you should let Xue Yan and Jiang Yue follow you in the future.”
“Alright.” Xue Sifu immediately agreed, and after agreeing, he smiled at her and Xue Yan like a fox, looking overjoyed.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other in defeat.
After a while, Liu Guixia smiled and said, “Since it’s selling so well, we can start making rice noodles with the early rice we still have at home.”
“It’s ready. We’ll start making it at home tomorrow. Otherwise, I’m afraid we won’t be able to feed everyone.” Xue Sifu laughed.
“Then tomorrow, you will still take Xue Yan and Jiang Yue to the town to sell rice noodles. Hehua and I will make rice noodles at home. By the way, your brother has made two more tables. Do you want to bring them?”
Xue Sifu replied, “Of course, we have to! There were so many people lining up today. There were not enough seats for everyone. However, mother, can you and Hehua handle it all if you make rice noodles?”
“Don’t we still have Yifu? He’s almost done with everything. If he’s free, he can help me and Hehua grind the soaked rice into powder. If he’s really too busy, he can ask Wufu to help at home. He’ll be an extra helper. As for your father and Erfu, let them busy themselves with the workshop. It wasn’t easy for them to figure out the layout of the workshop that Xue Yan drew. However, Xue Yan still needs to be present when installing things like the grain and the wheel. We don’t want them to install it wrongly. That would be troublesome.”
Xue Sifu laughed, “If you need to install it, we should just let Xue Yan stay at home. It will take quite a few days to build this workshop. By then, my business will be stable and I won’t need Xue Yan and Jiang Yue to help me sell my goods.”
“That’ll be perfect for everyone.” Liu Guixia said with a smile.
Xue Dafu, Xue Erfu, and Xue Wufu were busy with the workshop on the mountain, so they weren’t home. When they returned after sunset and learned that all the rice noodles had been sold out and that business was booming, they were all jumping for joy.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he had something to do at home, Xue Wufu would’ve followed them to town the next day to see the prosperous business.
During dinner, Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, and the others were all very happy. They kept laughing and joking around.
Jiang Yue continued to eat the food in her small bowl. After she was done, she took a thin branch and started drawing on the ground.
