Chapter 239
239 What do you think of niannian?
Qin Shi had no choice but to calm Guo WAN down first and let her wait until after the new year.
Shouldn’t a married daughter return to her Maiden Home on the second day of the new year? Qin Shi was planning to have third aunt Gu bring Guo Wan along on the second day of the new year.
After Guo Wan heard this, she stopped making a fuss and went to sleep in peace.
However, she couldn’t say anything. Her mind was filled with the image of the young man. He smiled at her sister-in-law’s second brother, worked quietly on the side, and taught her sister-in-law’s nephew how to shoot birds with a slingshot.
As for the words he had used to scold her, after serious consideration, Guo Wan thought that the young man was reminding her that she was too well-rounded, the color of her clothes was too plain, and that her big eyes were not suitable for her beautiful face. The Rouge was too red, so it was better to put on some powder, and she should not put on lipstick.
Well, Guo Wan decided that she would eat less when she went back and become slimmer. Then, she would ask her mother to make new clothes for her, and they must be beautiful in color.
There were still a few days before the second day of the new year. She had to dress up and make her husband’s eyes light up. It would be best if they could settle their marriage next year.
Guo Wan thought of this wonderful result and fell asleep.
……
Early the next morning, the Gu family miraculously discovered that Guo Wan seemed to be in high spirits again.
She even greeted everyone in the Gu family very politely.
After breakfast, the Guo family left with the fresh pork that grandma Gu had given them.
As for the marriage that Zhang Shi wanted to talk about, Qin Shi didn’t want to talk to Zhang Shi at all. It was mainly because Qin Shi felt that she couldn’t afford to offend Gu Hui.
As soon as the night before the New Year’s Eve passed, the New Year’s atmosphere became even stronger.
Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian decided to make their Business 29% successful with the help of the whole family. Even Gu en, who had always loved to play, stayed at home and did what he could.
Of course, there were people in the village who knew about their New Year’s Sale. Some came directly to buy, while others came to learn their craft. Cai Xiaolian said that she was helping the drunken River Tavern make it. She was working for the drunken River Tavern, and she could not tell anyone.
Just like that, the villagers ‘thoughts were dispelled.
In the entire Gu family, only Madam Zhang did not know that the second branch was cooperating with the drunken River Restaurant. She really thought that the second branch had sold the recipe to the drunken River Restaurant, and the owner of the drunken River Restaurant had given Cai Xiaolian a job. So, at present, no one in the village knew about this.
On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Gu shouxin accompanied Cai Xiaolian to sell all the things and waited in the restaurant to settle this year’s profits.
In the afternoon, Madam Cheng came over with Cheng Rui.
“Sister Lian, second brother Gu, I’ve made you wait for a long time. I’m really busy at home.” After they arrived, Mrs. Cheng apologized first.
After exchanging pleasantries, Cheng Rui took out the account book. This was the account book that the bookkeeper recorded every day according to Cai Xiaolian’s accounting model, as well as the laundry and skincare sets that Mrs. Cheng helped Gu Nian sell.
Madam Cheng had sold a total of three hundred sets of the facial and wash set for five taels of silver each, so it was a total of one thousand and five hundred taels of silver.
The restaurant had made a net profit of 2742 taels in two months after deducting all the costs. The Gu family would get 8226 taels of silver if they took 30% of the profits.
The two items added up to a total of two thousand three hundred and twenty-two taels.
She had originally agreed to help Madam Cheng sell the suit and take a Commission, but Madam Cheng refused to accept it.
Cai Xiaolian looked at the accounts. There were no problems.
After the accounts were settled and the silver was paid, the couple left.
The mother and son walked her to the door. After watching the couple drive away, Cheng Rui said, ” “Mother, what do you think of niannian?”
