Chapter 58
"Anyway, you really need to discuss this matter with Aunt Liu and Uncle Wang. Sometimes, what you see in the game is too one-sided. "Your parents will definitely not agree." Wang Xiaofeng muttered in a low voice.
"Then think carefully about why they disagree!" Shi Xiaoai couldn't help but reply firmly. The room fell silent again.
Shi Xiaoai didn't want to talk anymore. She put the baked cakes into the basket and wrapped them in gauze. Just as she was about to tell Wang Xiaofeng to bake the rest herself, she noticed that the corners of the girl's eyes were a little moist.
She immediately regretted it.
What are you doing?
This little girl stayed up early in the morning and came over to help with the work, and she even made her cry?
"Hey, Xiaofeng, don't overthink. I was a little anxious just now. Don't take it to heart when I say something unpleasant." She apologized quickly.
"No, sister, it has nothing to do with you. I know you are doing it for my own good."
Wang Xiaofeng shook her head vigorously, but the tears still did not stop and fell down.
She wiped her tears and said hoarsely: "I also know it is better to stay home, but I can't stay under the current conditions! I am already twenty-two this year, and I don't want to live alone at home, and I don't want my parents to Keep feeding me. Their money is not brought by strong winds. Especially my father, who is several decades old, still pulls a truck to deliver coal to people daily. When he comes home daily, he is so tired that he doesn't even want to say anything.
Every time I asked them for money, I felt very uncomfortable, and I would think I should go back.
My mother always said that the people in the village cared for me for their elders' sake. I admit that this is true. There are many reasons, but they are not entirely correct.
Sister, I am very good at work, no worse than the people in the village! I am not afraid of hardship and must surpass the March 8th Red Flag Bearers in the township! There are only five people in total in the township!"
The little girl's eyes sparkled when she talked about her previous achievement. It can be seen that she misses that time very much, and that time is also something she is very proud of.
But even so, Shi Xiaoai was still not optimistic about her decision.
She thought about it and asked: "Xiaofeng, do you want to return to the country just because you don't have a job? If you had a job, would you still want to return?" "
Of course not."
Wang Xiaofeng shook her head decisively: "My brother, If he has a job, he will definitely stay at home to take care of my parents."
"Then come and help me." Shi Xiaoai decided immediately.
She pointed to the basket of steamed buns beside her: "Come and help me bake the steamed buns, and I can also teach you how to make the stone steamed buns. I won't give you a basic salary anymore, whether it's the steamed buns or the stone steamed buns. I will give you a penny commission. The more you work,
the more you will get. Don't underestimate this penny. You have seen how many pieces I can sell every day. As long as we work hard together, I believe your income will not be lower than a few workers in the factory."
"How can this be done?" Wang Xiaofeng's face immediately turned red.
She waved her hands repeatedly: "Sister, I can't charge you for helping you. Your grandfather saved our family's lives back then. It's unclear whether my brother, sister and I would have survived without his help during the most challenging time.
I can't charge you for helping you; that's definitely not possible. If my mother knew, she would kill me!"
Her attitude was unyielding.
After hearing this, Xiao Ai was relieved and felt she had not misjudged the person.
She smiled and said, "If you don't help me, I must find someone else. If I find someone else, don't I have to give money? And who can I find who can have a tacit understanding between us and the two sisters? I feel more at ease with your help." She said and patted Wang Xiaofeng on the shoulder: "I'm serious. If you come to help me, I can put Mingrui and Mingxi at home so they can sleep a little longer in the morning. Are you willing to let them suffer with it so early in such cold weather? Aren't they freezing?" Although Wang Xiaofeng had not been in contact with the two children for a long time, these words still made her hesitate.
She knew everything that had happened in the Shi family before, and she also saw that whenever they went out now, Miss Ai and his husband would like to tie the two children to their belts and not allow them to leave at all.
Apart from letting it go to their own home, they felt more at ease because they were unwilling to hand it over to anyone.
If you help yourself, you can let the two children sleep a little longer.
Seeing Wang Xiaofeng's hesitation, Shi Xiaoai added: "If Aunt Liu disagrees, I'll tell her. Don't worry; I'm happy to have you help me. You've helped me a lot by coming." Xiao Ai has already talked about this, and Wang Xiaofeng really can't refuse anymore.
Only then did she begin to reflect on what she had just heard.
One piece of cake is one cent, ten pieces is one cent, and one hundred pieces is one dollar!
But in just a short period yesterday, they sold more than a hundred buns, more than one yuan!
What if we add stone buns?
The more Wang Xiaofeng thought about it, the more excited she became, and her heart could not help but beat rapidly.
If he earns two yuan a day, that's sixty yuan a month, more than his father's salary!
Moreover, according to the selling speed of Sister Ai and the others, they will sell more than 200 pieces daily!
As she thought about it, Wang Xiaofeng's face slowly turned red due to excitement, and her eyes became bright again.
"Then let me try?" Her expression became eager to try.
"Okay! Then you go ahead and bake, and I'll go over first. You bake another hundred and bring Mingxi to send them over to us. Don't be in a hurry. Eat first, don't work on an empty stomach!" With
Wang Xiaofeng's help, Shi Xiaoai's workload was significantly reduced in an instant.
The main thing is that she is swift and does her work quickly and satisfactorily.
When Shi Xiaoai rushed to the stall, it was yet to be the morning rush hour, and there were only three or two people drinking tea and eating eggs at the stall.
And when people started to serve one after another, Wang Xiaofeng had already rushed over with the baked cakes, and there really was no delay at all.
Not only that, she also made Mingxi tidy and gave her two lovely pigtails. Even made breakfast for Mingxi.
When she arrived at the stall, Wang Xiaofeng put down the cake and started working.
I don't know why she sees so much work in her eyes. Even when there were more customers, she kept the tables, and there was no garbage on the ground.
At the same time, the dirty teacups she saved were also washed and polished so that the big basin to put used cups became useless.
Seeing this scene, even Cheng Yang had to admit that the helper his wife hired was perfect; at least she could beat him in terms of work.
With Wang Xiaofeng here, Cheng Yang was freed up.
So that he didn't have to wait for the afternoon, he went to the state-owned hotel after the rush hour at around 10 o'clock and met with Director Guo, the top boss of their hotel, on the recommendation of Master Liu.
Because people from the Military Support Office and the police station had also gone to the hotel to understand the situation, Director Guo took Cheng Yang very seriously. He gave him the green light to go all the way.
Therefore, Cheng Yang successfully completed the task assigned by his wife and bought all the supplies on the shopping list at once.
In the evening, when Wang Xiaofeng and her husband finished packing up the stall and were about to leave, they were stopped by Shi Xiaoai.
Shi Xiaoai pulled her to sit on the bench and said with a smile: "Don't leave in a hurry, Xiaofeng; sit here, and I will calculate today's commission for you."
Wang Xiaofeng's face turned red again, and He immediately stood up, waved his hands vigorously, and said repeatedly: "Sister, no need, no need, I don't want today." "
That's not possible." Shi Xiaoai growled: "What about the things we agreed to do? Can you change your mind? Xiaofeng, are you going to let me go?"
Although Wang Xiaofeng couldn't figure out what letting go meant, she still shook her head decisively: "No!"
At this time, Xiao Ai had already taken the bag out of her school bag. Counted out a few bills and placed them in her hand.
