Chapter 119: I promise you will be happy after reading it
"I've made up my mind. I'm going to sell soup dumplings! This is not included in the contract between me and Wei Bo Niang.
In the morning, Lanxia County sells steamed buns, pancakes, wontons, glutinous rice balls, noodles, etc.
Instead of selling the same things as everyone else, it’s better to sell some fresh food.
If business can be good, then of course it is good.
It’s okay for a few days, so forget it, at worst we can bring it back and eat it ourselves.”
Su Rongrong thought about it and added, "It might be a bit boring to just sell soup dumplings. I'll see what else I can make and sell when the time comes."
Shaomai, or sesame balls?
The former is more troublesome, while the latter wastes sugar.
In ancient times, sugar was relatively expensive, and no one knew whether people liked it or not.
As they were talking, they arrived at the kang room.
Su Rongrong first looked at the growth of the vegetables, then separated from her and returned to the kang room where the three sisters originally lived.
Qi Jianing was sober at this time. Seeing Su Rongrong coming back, she felt greatly relieved.
Maybe it was because of her baby complex, but she felt very relieved when she saw her niece who saved her from dire straits.
"Rong Rong!"
"Aunt, are you feeling better?"
Qi Jianing nodded: "Yeah, I feel much better now, but I'm still a little weak. I should be fine after this month of confinement."
Su Rongrong nodded and said, "Aunt, I just heard from Qiaoqiao that Zhiming and Zhiyuan don't seem very comfortable at home."
Qi Jianing was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "The two of them are actually scared by their father and grandmother.
That beast Li Dabiao didn't treat them as children at all.
After losing money gambling outside, he took his anger out on his two children when he got home.
Sometimes he would deliberately pick up food with chopsticks for his children. When the children were happy to eat, he would be afraid of the chopsticks and say that they were eating alone and were unfilial.
Then they were asked to spit it out, and if they couldn’t, they were beaten until they vomited.”
When saying this, Qi Jianing closed his eyes, turned his head away and didn't look at Su Rongrong.
But her body was trembling slightly, as if she was enduring something.
When Su Rongrong was getting the divorce papers, she said again: "Li Dabiao's mother is even more hateful.
She was a bad-mouthed woman who always quarreled with others. When she lost the argument, she would go home and take it out on her children.
Every time we cook at home, she has to share the food.
Then she deliberately scooped more rice for the children, and when the children finished eating, she said that they were the reincarnation of starving ghosts.
The family is so poor because of them.
Since I have already eaten two days’ worth of food, I will be hungry for the next two days.”
When Qi Jianing talked about this now, although his expression was blank, he still felt a lot of hatred in his heart.
This is also one of the reasons why she was always struggling and wanted to kill the mother and son.
If she wasn't afraid that the two men would die, she would have to pay with her life.
Then the two children would become orphans and would be bullied in that village. She would really do that.
Fortunately, fortunately, when she was in despair, Rongrong came and she also waited for the opportunity to change her child's fate.
"Aunt, it's not worth getting angry over a dead person like that.
Come, don't be angry, I'll show you something good, I guarantee you'll be happy after watching it."
As she spoke, she handed over the divorce papers.
Qi Jianing was a little confused, but still reached out to take it.
When she spread it out and took a look, she suddenly sat up as if she had been injected with chicken blood.
"He Lishu?"
As she spoke, she quickly read the contents of the document, then looked at the name carefully, and finally glanced at the date.
Then he looked up at Su Rongrong, and when she nodded, he read it again.
Finally, while putting away the divorce papers, she burst into laughter and said, "Rongrong, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but in fact, my aunt and he don't have a marriage certificate at all."
Su Rongrong knew that many people might not have a marriage certificate, and might not go to the government office to register it.
Even when everyone recognizes de facto marriages, they only look at the number of people registered in the household registration book.
No matter whether you have a marriage certificate or not, people will only recognize what it looks like in the household registration book.
Now that she has given the divorce papers, I think my aunt knows how to do it.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be put away so carefully.
Thinking of this, she said, "Aunt, I rented a house in the county town.
How about, I ask someone to find you a wife, and then you can live in the county town with Zhiming and Zhiyuan?
Zhiming and Zhiyuan are already grown up, they can’t just be blind, they need enlightenment.
In the surrounding villages, there was only one private school run by a student.
But Tongsheng himself has limited knowledge, so how good can his prescription be?
I thought I could find a good one in the county town.
As for my aunt, you can do whatever you want. My family will pay for Zhiming and Zhiyuan's tuition before they are ten years old.
After I turn ten, if I am able, I will help out."
Qi Jianing listened to Su Rongrong's arrangements and agreed without any hesitation.
"Then let's set up a female household and live in the county town! Rongrong, my embroidery is OK, but my hands are rough and I can't do delicate work.
I'll take some time to raise it, and when I've grown some, I can show off some big items.
Zhiming and Zhiyuan are both good kids, and my aunt was forced to support the whole family.
There are fewer people now, so it doesn’t make sense that we can’t support them.
I don't need your help. I will help you when I make some money and have more money on hand."
Su Rongrong knew that what was not said next was to help you raise your younger brothers and sisters.
Hearing this, she smiled and said, “Aunt, you don’t have to worry about me, I actually think I’m okay.
The family has land and some savings. Although the land cannot be used to grow crops, it can be rented out.
Although the money is not much, it can still be used to deal with emergencies at home.
Also, this time I went to the county town to do business with Madam Baili, the wife of the county magistrate.
From now on, even if I don’t do anything, my family will still have income.
What's more, I got some seeds from Brother Zheng, the son of the county magistrate.
I plan to plant one and see what I can grow.
If you are lucky, you may even make a fortune.
Another thing is that I now use the kang to grow vegetables at home.
The weather is very cold nowadays, and even rich people who want to eat something fresh have to pay a high price.
I had sold more than ten kilograms of those at home before, but I got more than two taels of silver.
Also, my aunt, I have to go to the county town to set up a stall in a couple of days.
Although Manman is at home, she is still young, so I need your help.
Right now, Liu Miao is helping, but she can’t stay at my house every day, otherwise her family will have objections.
So, auntie, please get better as soon as possible, it’s okay even if you have to stay in confinement after childbirth.
Just take charge of everything at home.
If you can teach Manman well, I can leave the housework to her and make some money out there."
Qi Jianing was suddenly entrusted with an important task by Su Rongrong and found a sense of being needed in this family.
She nodded vigorously, and her spirits had visibly improved since she received the divorce papers.
"Okay, Rongrong, you can rest assured and do your work outside. Aunt is here to take care of everything at home, so you don't have to worry about it."
