Chapter 95: Guan Chibei Enters the House in the Morning
After counting the money and chatting, the Guan family returned to their houses. They slept that night with excitement and satisfaction.
The next morning, Mother Rong and the rest continued to set up the stall.
The difference today was that Fifth Brother Guan stayed behind to guard the house while Father Guan left for the city.
Their carts were placed in the carriage station by the city gate.
Since Yuan City was a place for transportation and freight, there were naturally many carriages. There were also different people who needed to store their carriages temporarily, so there was a special carriage station by the city gate that was convenient for everyone who wanted to do business in the city.
This carriage station was set up by the government, so it was safe and trustworthy. They would pay according to the size of their different carriages.
Although their family’s wooden cart had a strange design that no one in Yuan City had seen before, the entire cart was huge. It cost five copper coins per night according to the slot of the big carriage.
It was not cheap, but compared to doing business, it was worth it.
Early in the morning, Guan Chibei went to the river to fish, just like yesterday. He had already calculated last night and estimated the amount of food they would be selling today, so he caught five fish.
He went to the butcher’s to buy double the amount of pork and pig intestines. Village butcher Liu’s expression was especially strange, as if he was wondering why the Guan family had bought so much pork yesterday but came to buy meat again today.
No one in the village knew that their family went to the docks to set up a stall.
Firstly, the villagers were young adults who did manual labor. Almost no one else entered the city, and even if they did, they would be doing manual labor. Secondly, there were too many people at the docks. Mother Rong’s stall wasn’t popular to the point of being sensational. Therefore, although the business was good, no one in the village had seen it.
If they wanted to do business, they naturally had to make early preparations. They set off at night and did not encounter any villagers.
For various reasons, no one had heard about the Guan family doing business yet.
They had also killed three chickens at home. The remaining white rice was taken to the docks and could be placed in a large pot to be boiled at any time. The remaining white flour was also made into three hundred dumplings. A hundred glutinous rice chickens were prepared in advance.
All the ingredients prepared on the first day had been used up.
Although Mother Rong and the rest had set off very early today, they were filled with excitement. It was different from yesterday.
When the sun seeped through the window, Ye Lulu woke up.
She woke up early in the morning and teased the babies before feeding them milk. Before long, she had to change the babies’ diapers.
Ye Lulu called Guan Chibei in to help change the diapers for the babies. Guan Chibei was opening up a chicken pen in the backyard to free up more space. After a while, he walked into the house steadily.
Ye Lulu scooped up the youngest son who had his eyes half-closed and shouted at Guan Chibei in a hurry, “Change the diaper for the second son first. I don’t know why, but these babies are especially energetic after they woke up today. They keep moving around excitedly.”
She spoke a little late. The youngest son in her hands opened his eyes unhappily. He also opened his mouth and cried a few times.
Ye Lulu quickly started. Guan Chibei was more experienced than yesterday. The two of them changed the diapers together and it was finally settled.
“Why are you so impatient? You cry if we are a little late. Look at how obedient your eldest brother is.” Ye Lulu lowered her head and kissed the youngest son, nagging at him.
After changing into clean diapers, the eldest and second sons lay on the bed comfortably. They were even more energetic and moved their little limbs vigorously.
