After dinner, two small dishes were washed below. Zhou Hui continued to go to work, while Zhou Tian lay on the lounge chair to rest. The hot sunlight outside shone on the ground, and the air was filled with a hint of heat. She sat for a while and was sweating profusely.

I miss the air conditioner so much!

Zhou Tian was fanning the wind with a broken palm fan, while sighing in her heart.

I fell asleep in a daze, and when I woke up, I was covered in sweat.

After taking a shower, he continued to sell cakes. However, before leaving, Shao Yian asked, "Can I just stay in the shop?"

Zhou Tian didn't think he was really helping, but after hearing what he said, he waved his hand and said, "Okay." Then he went out by himself.

When he came back from darkness in the evening, he heard Zhou Meng excitedly say to her: "Second sister, all the cakes are sold out!"

"Hmm?" Zhou Tian looked at the sieve and it was indeed empty. "Business is so good today?" In the past, it was only ten or ten yuan a day.

"It's all Xiao An's credit." Zhou Meng didn't take the credit either. "As soon as he sat there, many people came over. Not long after you left, we sold out."

Zhou Tian: "..." It was my family who came out for a cake cowherd?

However, Shao Yian said: "I sold a total of 38 yuan this evening. According to the wages you gave me, it is 70 cents. However, I will eat and live in your house next, so you can deduct these fees and give me the remaining money."

When Zhou Tian heard this, she laughed, "The little guy is quite smart." She asked her to deduct the money by herself instead of asking how much money by herself. According to her personality, would she really be able to deduct all of it? "Half, half of the income will be handed over in the future, and the remaining half will be kept by herself."

Shao Yian said seriously as if she didn't know her kindness, "Okay."

When he was calculating the money at night, Zhou Tian recorded the income and expenditure one by one, and then calculated the remaining money in her hand. She couldn't help but sigh again.

I have actually made a small profit in the past half month, but now I am facing another crisis.

In fact, it is the same as the situation at the station. Now some people are starting to follow the trend to make cakes and go shopping in the streets and alleys like her.

Today she went home much later than before. The reason why the things were sold was because old customers who had an impression of her were waiting for her.

Despite this, her business space was squeezed. If she wanted to sell the cake in the future, the competition would definitely be greater.

It's really not easy to make money.

After putting away the account book, Zhou Tian lay on the bed, thinking about what to do next.

The next morning, Zhou Tian went to buy red beans, soybeans and mung beans. The soybeans were ready to sprout and eat bean sprouts; boil mung beans to soybeans to relieve the heat; red beans were the new way she thought of all night.

In the business world, if you want to have an advantage in competition, you have to innovate.

Hongdou is her innovation.

Soak the fresh red beans in water for a day and night, then add rock sugar and boil them in water, stirring them constantly until the red beans are crushed as soon as they are pressed. Put the cooked red beans dry and sprinkle them in when making the cake to make a red bean cake.

The red beans on a piece of cake are limited, so the cost is a little higher and can be ignored, so there is no need to raise the price. I believe that in front of a bunch of competitors who are still white cakes, her red bean cake should be more popular at the same price.

Sure enough, the newly released red bean cake is much more popular than before, especially some of Zhou Tian’s old customers, who bought several pieces in one go. Zhou Tian rarely sold it in a hurry and then went home to restock a basket.

When I came back, I felt that it was impossible to say that it was unhappy. The sweat I paid was rewarded, and this sense of accomplishment was indescribable.

Just as I went home with the setting sun, my long shadow dragged onto the ground. The sunset was everywhere in the sky, and it seemed that tomorrow would be another good weather.

At this time, Zhou Tian saw a black sedan driving by not far from her. She watched the car gradually move away, and she was not sure if the person sitting inside was the one she had met before.

But... I don't know when she can drive her car to pass the market.

The business was good and Zhou Tian was in a particularly good mood. On the way, she encountered the last three melons left for selling watermelons, so she bought them all.

After dinner, the family cooked and ate iced watermelon in the yard, blew the cool evening breeze, and the stars were everywhere on their heads. The most comfortable time of the day was probably this moment.

After a few days of getting along, Shao Yian and the two younger ones below quickly became familiar with each other. The three of them were about the same age and were carrying ancient poems there.

"What is the next sentence for a dangerous building a hundred feet high?" Shao Yian asked.

"You can pick the stars with your hands." The siblings and brothers answered together.

"What about the previous sentence of a dragonfly standing on top?" Shao Yian asked again.

This time, Zhou Meng took the lead in answering: "Xiaohe has just revealed her sharp corners."

"What about the next sentence when the night is as cool as water in the sky?"

This time, the siblings were a little confused, "Have we learned this?"

"I know everything, that must have been learned." Shao Yian was serious.

It was Zhou Tian who chewed the melon, "The next sentence is to sit and watch the Alpine Weaver Star."

This time it was Shao Yian's turn to be surprised. Under the half-hazy moonlight, he looked at Zhou Tian and said, "The bright moon night of the Twenty-Four Bridges."

"Where can the jade man teach the flute to play?"

"Think about the red medicine by the bridge,"

"I know who I have been born every year."

...

Shao Yian didn't expect that what he said was Zhou Tian, ​​a village girl, could take it. Then he said more than a dozen words in one breath, and Zhou Tian could take it every sentence.

Just kidding, she is a seed contestant of 300 Tang poetry and Song lyrics.

Now let alone Shao Yian, even Zhou Hui and the two young people below stopped talking.

After a long time, Zhou Hui said in a trembling voice: "Tiantian, how do you know this?" He remembered that Tiantian did not study.

"I know how to recognize words." Zhou Tian didn't intend to hide the fact that she knew words. "It's no big deal to know, then it's okay to read a few stories."

"Oh——" The two younger sisters below have improved a lot about their sister. What else can I do not know about this?

Zhou Hui still felt that it was wrong, but Zhou Tian had interrupted his thoughts at this moment, "You just took the test of me, so I will also give you a test." Zhou Tian threw the watermelon peel into the wooden basin. The melon peel can be cooked tomorrow. "Which one pound of iron or one pound of cotton is the weight?"

Zhou Zhe quickly answered: "I know, Iron!"

However, the anticipated praise did not come, but instead he burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha!" The whole family laughed in a panic, and even Shao Yian, who had always paid attention to his demeanor, leaned against the bamboo chair and smiled with his face up.

Zhou Zhe looked at everyone laughing in a daze. After checking himself, he immediately howled "ah ah ah ah" and threw himself into his elder brother's arms to pretend to be an ostrich.

It's so embarrassing! He's still saying so loudly!

The night ended with laughter. When the door closed and went to bed at night, Shao Yian looked at Zhou Tian, ​​and suddenly said with great sincerity: "Good   night!"

"What did you say?" Zhou Tian asked with an unknown expression.

"Oh, it's okay." Shao Yian smiled at her, "Good night." He said, and entered the room.
Chapter completed!
