Song Xiao’s face turned red. He didn’t dare to call her that at first. Didn’t he learn it from his sister?
Song Yao paused for a moment before continuing, “You can just find a lively place. The money that you earn will be yours. How about that?”
Song Xiao put down the steaming rougamo. “Sister, why are you so good to me? What if the things can’t be sold?”
Song Xiao smiled and said, “Silly boy! You’re my biological brother. If I don’t treat you well, who should I treat well?”
“And with your talent, how can you not sell anything?” After saying that, she patted Song Xiao’s shoulder and found that her brother had grown much taller.
In a month at most, it would be her brother’s 17th birthday. Seeing that it was almost time to talk about marriage, Song Yao smiled and teased, “Xiao, when do you want to find a wife?”
“Sister!”
Song Xiao’s face turned red. “I’m still a child!”
“What’s wrong with the child? Your sister was already talking about marriage when she was your age!”
Gu Li carried Baby Xuan down from the second floor. “Besides, our Xiao is already a big child. It’s time for him to find a wife.”
“Mom!” Hearing this, Song Xiao’s face turned even redder. “When…
when did you come down?”
Gu Li smiled. “Didn’t we run out of eggs and vegetables? I’ll get your father to go back to the village to get some.”
Ever since they moved to town, the old couple had to go back to Song
Manor every day to feed the chickens and ducks. Occasionally, they had to fertilize the vegetables in the field, afraid that Song Yao’s small restaurant would be in short supply one day.
“I asked your father to spread the news in the village about your recruitment. Now is not the time for farming. There should be many people coming to help tomorrow.”
Song Yao nodded. “If they can come, I won’t treat them badly. My salary is 12 yuan a month. I’ll provide lunch and the working hours are from eight in the morning to six in the evening.”
“You’re right.” Gu Li agreed with Song Yao. “It’s not easy for anyone. If they do a good job, we’ll give them a raise!”
Song Yao responded and continued to make rougamo.
Gu Li and Song Xiao also helped. “Yao’s rougamo is really good. If we sell it, we can earn a lot of money!”
Song Yao smiled. “So I plan to leave a portion for the shop and let Xiao sell the rest in the county.”
“Can he do it?” Gu Li couldn’t help but worry.
She had never heard Song Xiao shout. She knew her son’s personality the best. What if he was bullied outside?
“I heard that the vendors in the county are very strict now. Several vendors have been taken away!”
“Mom! They were taken away because they didn’t have a business license. My sister has completed all the necessary procedures.” Song Xiao’s tone was a little helpless. “And I can’t always hide behind my sister, right? A man has to do something big!”
When Gu Li heard her son’s words, she did not dare to refute him. She sighed and said, “I don’t know anything about you young people. It’s getting late. I’ll go back to sleep first. You guys sleep early too.”
After Gu Li left, Song Yao wrapped the rougamo and placed them in the thermos. She also put in the jar of braised meat and a few packets of instant noodles that she had made during the day. She placed them all in the back seat of the bicycle.
“See if you can still ride it?” Song Yao raised the flashlight and asked her brother.
Previously, the siblings had always been riding separately when setting up the stall. This time, Song Xiao wanted to ride from the town to the county city alone.
Song Xiao rode the bicycle out of the courtyard with some difficulty. Although it was indeed very tiring to ride, he was a man after all. He gritted his teeth and said that he could ride it.
Song Yao looked at her brother’s red face and was on the brink of tears. “If you can’t ride it, don’t show off. I won’t be busy next year and I’ll bring you to buy a new car!
Song Yao had thought about it. It would be best if it was a three-wheeled cart. That way, it would be much more convenient for Xiao to buy goods.
Song Xiao refused repeatedly. “Our house has just been renovated. How can we have money? Let’s talk after this month.”
“Why not? I earned more than a thousand yuan from collecting chestnuts yesterday. Coupled with the money I earned today, it should be enough.”
Song Yao continued, “Besides, what if something happens to you riding this old bicycle? Do you want another accident like when you were young?”
When Song Xiao was young, he got into a car accident on a tractor. If not for the old divine doctor’s timely arrival, Song Xiao would probably have to spend the rest of his life on crutches.
Therefore, Song Yao asked Song Xiao to wait until she bought a car before setting up the stall. Song Xiao did not refuse..
