Chapter 409 Change of plan
Seeing that she wanted to say something, Gu Qingqing didn't give her a chance to refute. "It's useless for you to tell me this now. If your uncle and aunt and Yuzhu agree that you can go to the town, then you can go. Also, don't worry about the dividends from the shop. You will get what you deserve."
Luo Meihua was reluctant to give up the town's dividends, and now when she heard that Qingqing would give her money even if she didn't go to work, she became even more anxious, "Sister-in-law, how can I ask for money if I don't go? Besides, we farmers don't care about the first three months. Don't talk about the village who doesn't work after getting pregnant? Even when I was pregnant with Xiaoyang and Xiaoguang, I still had to cook and wash clothes."
As Luo Meihua said, pregnancy is a very common thing for them. Families with better conditions would just eat a few eggs to supplement their diet and do less work.
Gu Qingqing stopped glaring at her and put on a proud expression, "How could I not? I am one."
Seeing Luo Meihua choked up at what her elder sister said, Lu Xiaocao couldn't help laughing and advised, "Sister Meihua, if I say anything, just listen to me. I'll be busy during this period, and you stay at home and take good care of yourself. If you think I'm having a hard time, you can just bring your man to help me when I come back from town."
Seeing that Gu Qingqing and Xiaocao both insisted, Luo Meihua stopped insisting and nodded, "Sister-in-law, since I won't be going to town for a while, I don't want the dividends for this period. You decide whether to give it to Xiaocao or find someone to replace me."
"That's nonsense. Who in the village is worthy of such a high price? Forget it. Don't worry about anything. I will arrange everything." Gu Qingqing didn't listen to her at all.
Seeing that she was going to give all the dividends to herself, Lu Xiaocao, who was standing next to her, also jumped up and down anxiously, "I don't want your share, I just want my share."
"You don't have to worry about this. Go back and talk to your uncle and aunt about this. I'll make arrangements for the shop." Gu Qingqing urged her to leave.
Isn’t it true that happy events should be shared with family members as soon as possible?
Luo Meihua left. Gu Qingqing saw Lu Xiaocao rushing to the backyard alone. She hurriedly asked, "Have you taken everything off the car?"
"Sister, I met Brother Dong when I came back just now, and he helped me carry it down. Oh, by the way, sister, the owner of the grain shop came today and asked if we could put some preserved eggs in his shop, saying that we can put them with him at the original price, and he wants to attract business." Lu Xiaocao stopped halfway through her run and said to Gu Qingqing.
The grain shop had helped her process a lot of chicken and duck eggs some time ago. Maybe they saw that the business of preserved eggs and preserved eggs was good, so they wanted to put some of them in the shop, which would also increase the flow of people in the shop.
With the flow of people, wouldn't the food business also be better?
Gu Qingqing understood the other party's intention almost instantly. Since they already had a cooperative relationship, the profit from selling preserved eggs and preserved eggs would be much higher than that from fresh chicken and duck eggs.
"You promised him that you would give him seven preserved eggs at ten cents each and six preserved eggs at ten cents each. The difference in price will be his."
Lu Xiaocao nodded and said, "I understand, sister. I will tell the other party tomorrow."
"If anyone from other shops comes to ask about the price, you can tell them the same price, but agree with them that the minimum order is fifty pieces per item, and then that's the price." Gu Qingqing didn't know if there would be other shops that wanted to sell the items, so she just explained it to Xiaocao so that Xiaocao would have a clear idea.
"I understand, sister. Is there anything else? I'll be busy in the backyard." Lu Xiaocao said.
"Okay then, you go and do your work first. I'll find a way to deal with Meihua's absence." After Gu Qingqing said this, she went back to the room first.
Meihua is pregnant, Gu Qingqing is really happy for her, but her own plans are indeed disrupted. Meihua and Xiaocao are her right-hand men!
Gu Qingqing thought about it for a while and came up with an idea. She walked towards the front yard and found Wen Xin who was with Xiao Wen Nuan and Gu Qi at the gate. "I'll look after my sister and Gu Qi. You go to the hillside and call Aunt Wu Fang and Aunt Zhao Qin. Tell them that I have something to talk to them about."
Wen Xin hurriedly put Gu Qi back on the crib where her sister had slept when she was little, and then said to Gu Qingqing, "Mom, don't hug cousin Gu Qi. He's very heavy now."
"I know. You can go quickly." Gu Qingqing had just finished speaking when a pendant appeared on one of her legs. Xiao Wen Nuan hugged her legs with both hands and looked up at Gu Qingqing with bright eyes, and a "hug, hug" sound came from her little mouth.
"Yes, mommy will hold you." Gu Qingqing said "hold" but she was actually sitting on the bench, holding little Wen Nuan in her arms and teasing her.
Soon the giggling of two children could be heard at the gate.
......
After Wu Fang and Zhao Qin arrived, Gu Qingqing got straight to the point and said to them, "There's something going on at Meihua's place, so she can't come to deal with the sewage during this period. I asked you to come mainly to ask if you have the intention to do so. Basically, you can help clean up the sewage chickens and ducks when the donkey cart comes back every afternoon. Under the condition that your original wages remain unchanged, I will give you an extra 200 coins per person every month until Meihua comes back. It doesn't matter if you don't want to, I can find two people from the village. And..."
Gu Qingqing paused for a moment as she spoke, interrupting the two men as they waited for her to speak. "Don't say you're just helping me out. I'm going to spend the money. If I don't give it to you, I'll give it to the woman I found in the village."
"Qingqing, you're speaking before us? What else do you want us to say?" Wu Fang and Zhao Qin said with a helpless look.
Gu Qingqing grinned, "Just tell me if you can handle the water without affecting the other side."
Don’t underestimate those little creatures raised on the hillside. They still require a lot of labor, and the pigs’ food has to be chopped up and cooked every day.
Some chickens and ducks don’t like to lay eggs in the nests built for them. They are simply like people with no control over their butts, and will just lie down wherever they feel like.
It's just like being a hooligan.
This resulted in the three adults and the children in the family searching for eggs on the hillside all day long, and helping her make hundreds of preserved eggs and preserved eggs every two days.
They had a lot of small things to deal with, so Gu Qingqing said she would help deal with the water as long as it wouldn't affect them.
When Wu Fang and Zhao Qin heard her say this, they naturally agreed. Who wouldn’t like to make money?
......
That evening, after Geng Chunhua and Xiaoxiu came home, Gu Qingqing had to discuss with Wang Xiaoxiu, "Originally, I was planning to have you help out in my workshop. Now there's one less person in the town shop. Are you willing to go to the town shop every day? If you're willing to go to the town, then you'll go there early in the morning with Xiaocao on the donkey cart. You'll have lunch in the town, and the shop will take care of it. When you come back from the town, you don't have to do anything, you can just go home and stop working."
