Chapter 6 Wild vegetables are on sale
My brothers and sisters-in-law are all good at farm work.
After lunch, it took a group of people just over an hour to dig 1,560 kilograms of wild vegetables.
Among them, shepherd's purse and gray vegetables are the most common. In fact, bitter vegetables are the most common on the mountain, but bitter vegetables have a special taste, so the consumption is smaller.
Throughout the afternoon, Zhao Wenmu and Zhao Jing stayed in the yard cleaning wild vegetables. Zhao Wenmu also learned how to take care of the little girl.
For example, just at this moment, the little girl suddenly started crying.
The young couple hurriedly stepped forward to check and found out that it was pulled.
Zhao Jing took a clean diaper and picked up the little girl to put it on, but Zhao Wenmu opened his hands:
"Sister, let me do it."
Although he was not very skilled yet, he followed the instructions and successfully took off the diaper of the little girl.
However, looking at his daughter's pink and tender butt, he had a problem.
How to wipe? What to use?
Zhao Jing reached out and handed over a warm and soft towel.
"Use a towel dipped in hot water and wipe it gently. The water temperature should not be too hot, otherwise it will burn the baby."
"The towel should be wiped from front to back like this, and these areas should be wiped twice."
"After wiping once, you need to wash it first and don't wipe it again."
"Don't rub it back and forth, it will hurt the baby."
"Don't push the baby's butt too high, she will feel uncomfortable..."
Zhao Jing speaks softly and delicately, and it turns out that there is so much to pay attention to when wiping a baby's butt.
Following the movements of Zhao Wenmu's hands, the little guy seemed to feel comfortable, and his crying gradually became quieter.
Then there was a small "poof", and a small lump of golden poop fell on Zhao Wenmu's hand.
The little guy also chuckled, completely unaware that he had done something bad.
Zhao Jing's expression suddenly changed.
She was afraid that Zhao Wenmu would be angry and lose his temper again.
Zhao Wenmu was also stunned.
After being stunned for a while, he suddenly laughed:
"Daughter, are you thanking Dad for giving him so many golden beans?"
He was really happy to have relived his life. In his heart, his precious daughter smelled delicious all over her body, even her daddy.
Every scene of taking care of a baby is the best memory in the future.
You can tease your daughter about this in the future, it will make you happy just thinking about it!
Zhao Jing looked at Zhao Wenmu in surprise. That young and handsome face was filled with the most sincere happiness. Is this really the young man with no fingers on his face?
"I forgot to tell you. When babies poop, they usually poop intermittently two or three times. It's all my fault."
She reached out and hugged the little girl, signaling Zhao Wenmu to wash his hands.
The little guy kept giggling in his mother's arms.
After laughing, he put his hand in his mouth and sucked it happily.
Not only is my little brother not angry, he also knows how to make jokes to adjust the atmosphere. I really hope that my little brother can be like this in the future! Zhao Jing thought silently in her heart.
Zhao Wenmu came back after washing his hands, smiled and tapped Zhao Jing's forehead lightly.
"This is your punishment for not being good at teaching."
Zhao Wenmu naturally took over the task of taking care of the little one at night, although Zhao Jing was still a little worried. Whenever Zhao Wenmu got up to feed the little girl or change her diaper, she would watch nervously.
Zhao Wenmu did not force it. He believed that in a few days, Zhao Jing would trust him even more.
After all, this was only the second night, and he was indeed not very skilled yet.
Early the next morning, Zhao Wenmu and his second brother Zhao Wenguang drove an ox cart into the city.
The ox cart was slightly faster than Zhao Wenmu carrying a large basket on his back, and the two of them arrived at the family area of the sugar factory in almost an hour.
The big ox pulled 1,560 kilograms of wild vegetables with two men, and it was not strenuous at all.
Even so, the two of them walked together. The big yellow ox is used to plow the land and pull grain, and it is very useful. Rural people cherish it very much.
Zhao Wenguang took out a cloth bag containing flour, spread it on the ground, and placed piles of wild vegetables on it.
Green and tender wild vegetables, clean and without any impurities.
I arrived a little early today and there weren't many people on the street.
After a few minutes, the number of people gradually increased, and people came around one after another.
"Young man, I mixed the sauce according to the method you told me, and the cold shepherd's purse is really delicious!"
"Yes, yes, I made shepherd's purse steamed buns yesterday, and my father-in-law praised me for not having such delicious shepherd's purse steamed buns in years!"
It turned out that it was the two eldest ladies who brought me my first order yesterday. They thought it was delicious and came to buy it early in the morning.
Zhao Wenmu had already predicted that the wild vegetables were delicious, inexpensive, and had various health benefits. It was surprising that there were not many repeat customers.
This time the two eldest sisters each asked for two kilograms of wild vegetables, and Zhao Wenmu happily weighed them in and collected the money.
Others have also started buying. Most of the employees' families are familiar with each other. The wild vegetables are delicious and good for health. The word spread here yesterday.
Some of the rumors are even vague, such as "Lao Li said that after eating bitter vegetables with dipping sauce, he felt that his high blood pressure has indeed been reduced", "Sister Liu and his son have grown a lot taller after eating bitter vegetables", "Xiao Zhang
My face looks better after eating gray vegetables”…
Some words become more and more exaggerated as soon as they are spread to ten or hundreds of people.
In this era, the people's spiritual entertainment is still poor, otherwise they wouldn't be so hotly debated over eating wild vegetables.
But this is a great thing for Zhao Wenmu!
He originally thought that it would take some time for the wild vegetable business to expand. As more and more people buy it, his reputation gradually increases, and his daily sales will also increase.
But I didn’t expect that I would reach my peak right after my debut.
Zhao Wenguang was stunned!
He has always been kind-hearted and eloquent, but he has never seen so many people rushing to buy. He can't speak anymore and just weighs the dishes and collects the money.
He still doesn't believe that wild vegetables are so popular.
Although after the whole family had the shepherd's purse feast yesterday, they no longer doubted that shepherd's purse could be sold for money, but they never expected that sales would be so hot!
In less than half an hour, all the wild vegetables on the oxcart were sold out, leaving only two baskets specially reserved for them.
That's for delivery to a state-owned hotel.
As a result, more people did not buy it today than yesterday!
"Young man, aren't there two baskets left in the car? Why not sell them!"
"Yes, yes!"
Some people didn't buy anything for two days in a row and were a little unhappy.
"Sister, those are reserved for state-owned hotels. They paid for them in advance yesterday. I will deliver them to them later!"
Zhao Wenmu hurriedly explained loudly.
You must explain the matter clearly, otherwise it will be a small matter if you make a few customers angry and refuse to buy. If they report it to the factory or the police, it will be a big deal if you are not allowed to sell vegetables here!
"I'll come back at five o'clock tonight. You can come back then!"
"Then can I pay you first, and you can keep it for me when the time comes, but don't let it go without you again!"
Hearing Zhao Wenmu say that he would come to sell wild vegetables in the evening, the elder sisters quickly wanted to pay for the vegetables in advance. After all, the elderly and children at home were waiting to eat.
Zhao Wenmu didn't refuse. He collected the money, borrowed pen and paper, and wrote down all the kilograms and vegetables that so and so wanted.
Everyone was satisfied, and the brothers breathed a sigh of relief.
Coming out of the family area of the sugar factory, Zhao Wenguang was still dazed:
"Brother, all the wild vegetables are really sold!"
Zhao Wenmu smiled, patted the bulging little cloth bag in his arms, and said in a low voice:
"Second brother, do you believe it now? Do you want to follow my younger brother?"
"I believe it! I believe it! Go home and dig wild vegetables!"
The two brothers did not go directly to the state-owned hotel, but first went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
