Yuan Laorong's wife heard it and said with a smile: "Okay, when I have time in the future, I will definitely go to my sister-in-law's house to have a taste of Sister Mei's craftsmanship."

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she quickly pushed Gu Yumei.

Gu Yumei said with a smile: "If Yuan Yuan Niang comes, Sister Mei will definitely cook a few dishes. If the cooking is not delicious, I hope Yuan Yuan Niang will not dislike it."

Yuan Laorong's wife smiled and said: "I don't mind it, Sister Mei's cooking must be delicious."

When several families heard this, they all thought the same thing: Is the Yuan family interested in Gu Yumei?

Gu Dagui took the opportunity to pat Chang Errui on the shoulder and said, "Brother Rui, come and sit at home when you have time in the future and try Sister Mei's craftsmanship."

Chang Errui's face had been red for a long time. When he heard this, his face became even redder. He nodded and said, "Thank you, uncle. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely come to your door to bother you."

"Haha, okay, then it's settled." Gu Dagui was very happy. It seems that his family will have a happy event soon.

When Gu Dafu heard what Yuan Laorong's wife said, his mental arithmetic that had been hanging around for a day came to an end. He was really afraid that the Yuan family would not look down on Sister Mei. Now it seemed that his worries were in vain.

After Yuan Laorong said goodbye to Third Grandpa and Gu Dashan, he took the return gift specially packed by Third Grandma and took his family on the mule cart to go home.

Along the way, Mrs. Yuan Xu hesitated whether she should tell her mother-in-law what she saw.

If I tell you, will my mother-in-law say that I am making a fuss out of a molehill? After all, Gu Yumei admitted her mistake and apologized at that time.

If she didn't tell her, she was worried that Gu Yumei was hiding her true nature, and when she got married and came home, she would find out that Gu Yumei was a house disturber. Then wouldn't her mother-in-law blame herself for hiding it?

The mule cart ran very fast, and the Yuan family returned home in less than half an hour.

Yuan Sanji was looking after the house at home. When he heard the sound of the mule cart, he ran out to open the door. After seeing his parents, he said happily: "Mom and dad, you are back. Is the Gu's shop fun? Their business must be very good, the things are delicious." Delicious.”

Then he raised his chubby face and asked, "The Gu family must have given us braised food as a gift in return."

He could smell the fragrance.

Yuan Laorong's wife nodded at his forehead and said, "How fat have you become, and you still think about eating?"

Yuan Laorong felt sorry for Yuan Sanji. He took the return gift from the mule cart and tore off a roast duck leg and handed it to Yuan Sanji: "Eat it."

Yuan Sanji screamed, took the roast duck leg, and started to chew on it.

Yuan Laorong's wife said dissatisfiedly: "Just spoil him. When he becomes fat in the future, he won't be able to find a wife."

Yuan Sanji said: "There's no way I won't be able to find a wife. Our family is the most kind-hearted in every village in the country. Anyone with a girl in the family would love to get married to our family."

After saying that, he looked at Chang Errui, which made Chang Errui so angry that he gave him a slap in the face: "I can't even stop your mouth with food."

Chang Errui didn't want to stay here and be laughed at. After taking out the other gifts in the mule cart, he drove the mule cart to the backyard.

Yuan Dayi smiled and said: "Second brother, you are so shy."

"After all, this is my first time meeting my wife, can you not be shy? Okay, forget about your second brother, hurry up and bring in the return gift," Yuan Laorong said, carrying two baskets of return gifts into the main room.

Yuan Dayi carried the other two baskets of return gifts and followed them into the house. Looking at the return gifts, he sighed: "Mom and Dad, the return gifts from the Gu family are really generous."

There were three roast ducks, as well as a basket of meat stew, a basket of vegetarian stew, a basket of soy products, two pots of wine, two packets of malt sugar, a jar of duck fat, and a small jar of fermented bean curd.

"There are so many things, but they are worth several taels of silver."

Yuan Laorong's wife smiled and said: "No, these return gifts were not prepared by Mrs. Chen, but by Aunt Gu and Aunt Gu. I heard that the jar of duck fat is very rare. It takes several days to roast the duck to get one." Gu Daya took it out as a gift in return without saying anything. It seems that these things are shared by several families, but the families didn't gossip. Aunt Gu and Third Aunt Gu could give us whatever they wanted. "

Yuan Laorong's wife sighed: "They are indeed fleeing the famine together. Their relationship is life-changing and they are very close. I also like them."

People have to rely on relatives and friends to survive. Her family, Errui, will continue the Chang family's fragility in the future. The daughter-in-law's natal family can't be a drag, and it can't have too few people.

When Yuan Laorong heard this, he asked: "So, you have fallen in love with the daughter of a wealthy family?"

Yuan Laorong's wife did not nod immediately, but said: "The relationship between the two families is good, Aunt Chen loves her, and the family members are reliable, but the girl looks a bit delicate."

It was because of this that she hesitated. If the girl had a sharp temper, she would ask the matchmaker to come to propose marriage tomorrow.

Yuan Laorong believed in his wife's vision. Hearing this, he said, "Then you have another look. If it doesn't work, forget it."

Their family took advantage of the shop being open to see her today. It wasn't considered a formal meeting, but even if it wasn't, it wouldn't have any impact on the girl's family's reputation.

When Yuan Xu heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief. After Yuan Laorong and Yuan Dayi went to the brick kiln, she finally told her mother-in-law about Gu Yumei knocking Gui Niu away with her foot.

Yuan Laorong's wife frowned when she heard this: "Did you see clearly?"

Yuan Xu said: "My daughter-in-law was right next to her. She could see clearly at that time that when Guiniu threw herself on her lap, there was a trace of disgust on her face... My daughter-in-law looked at her and realized that she disliked Guiniu in her heart. I don’t like Gui Niu as much as I think on the surface.”

After hearing this, Yuan Laorong's wife's expression finally changed. If this was really the case, then Gu Yumei would not be able to marry her.

She can marry a somewhat squeamish daughter-in-law and teach her slowly when she comes back later, but she can never marry a daughter-in-law who is kind on the outside but poisonous on the inside.

If such a person is married, it will be a great disaster to the family.

After Yuan Laorong and his family left, Gu Jinli and the others closed the shop door and began to settle accounts.

Gu Jinan and Gu Dexing calculated it twice together and finally figured out today's income.

"Dried fragrant tofu, fried tofu, white tofu, pan-fried five-spice tofu, bean dregs cake, fermented bean curd, and seasonings were sold for a total of forty-five taels. After deducting the cost, we made a net profit of thirty-three taels."

"Thirty-three taels!" Mrs. Chen was so happy that she covered her heart: "This is the most profitable day in the town since we set up the stall."

In the past, I could earn so much, but that would have to include the white tofu and seasonings sold by the workshop to Liang Zhuzi and He Dacang. Otherwise, I could only earn a dozen taels a day by setting up a stall in the town.

"It's good to open a shop. Not only can we make a lot of money, but we can also protect ourselves from the wind and rain. The most important thing is to sell things in the shop, and we will be proud." Mrs. Chen smiled so hard that she couldn't see her eyes: "You don't know, today How many people in the town are envious of us. Seeing such a big shop like ours, people in the town are extremely jealous. Gan Changfa’s daughter-in-law, I don’t know how many times I have looked at our place today. She is almost dying of pain. "

Mrs. Chen was very happy and said proudly.
