Of course, Mrs. Jiang also had her own private thoughts and didn’t really want to bring such a person ho.
Who would have thought, unable to get on the bullock cart, the silly girl just kept following behind it, clinging to them no matter what, and couldn’t be driven away.
Seeing Mrs. Jiang’s sullen face, Gu Nian sighed and spoke, "Mom, although this girl is a bit silly, she’s indeed very strong. Just think about the land we just bought; bringing this girl ho could really help with all the work. Otherwise, with just you and dad working all day in the field, we as children feel sorry for you."
It was true that the silly girl was strong, and thinking of this, Mrs. Jiang’s expression improved slightly.
"Ah!" Mrs. Jiang sighed, saying, "Fine, fine, considering her strength, let’s let her stay at our ho temporarily. After all, we did spend ten pieces of silver, and driving her away like that would really be a loss."
Moreover, she observed that the girl was just a bit dull, and not too foolish. If she were so silly as to be unable to take care of herself, they definitely couldn’t keep her either.
Gu Nian smacked a kiss on Mrs. Jiang’s face, happily praising, "Mom, you are so good. I always knew my mom is the kindest..."
Complints don’t cost anything and could coax Mrs. Jiang into smiling from ear to ear.
"Big brother, stop up ahead for a mont; I still need to buy sothing," only after coaxing Mrs. Jiang did Gu Nian dare to speak freely.
"There’s a big pile at ho. We haven’t finished using what we bought last ti, so what do you still need to buy?" Mrs. Jiang asked her.
"Mom, I’ve already talked about the smoked sausage business with the restaurant. Although they don’t need much for now, we’ll have to prepare for later. I’m going to buy so seasonings, and then when we get back, let dad find and buy a fat pig to kill and make smoked sausages. If this dish really becos popular at the restaurant, we won’t be caught unprepared."
The last batch of smoked sausages was made with wild boar at, which had a strong gay taste, and due to insufficient seasonings, the taste was quite lacking.
But even so, the flavor was still fairly good.
If they used dostic pork and had enough seasoning, the taste would be even better. Gu Nian really wasn’t worried about not being able to sell them.
"Alright, let your big brother go with you to help carry things." As soon as making money was ntioned, Mrs. Jiang truly felt that Gu Nian was a treasure heaven had bestowed upon their family.
Initially, they adopted the child just to have a daughter, but didn’t expect this child could bring them such great surprises.
"No need for big brother, there’s already..."
Saying this, Gu Nian realized she had defined the girl as the silly girl in her mind, yet still didn’t know the girl’s actual na.
"Hey, what’s your na?" Gu Nian got off the cart to ask her.
The silly girl smiled foolishly, "My na is Cuihua."
Gu Nian turned back to Mrs. Jiang and said, "Mom, I’ll just have Cuihua go with to carry the stuff."
"Alright, be careful; if there’s any issue, just call for soone." The bullock cart was parked right at the store’s door, so Mrs. Jiang wasn’t worried about the child being bullied.
When Gu Nian ca out with Cuihua carrying big bags and small bags, placing them on the bullock cart, she then pulled her directly towards the street vendor selling pancakes.
Standing in front of the pancake stall, Gu Nian asked Cuihua, "How many can you eat?"
Cuihua stretched out 10 fingers, fumbling for a long ti, first putting two down, then hesitantly putting another two down, "I can eat... four." After saying this, two more fingers quietly went down.
