TRANSMIGRATED TO THE 80S TO BECOME STEPMOTHERS FOR FIVE HIGHER-UPS

Chapter 26: Shao Xi Shot

Mushrooms and pickled vegetables have all been fried and are very fragrant. Although the bread was not meat bread, it was larger and cheaper than meat bread.

When everyone heard Mu Jingzhe calling the customer and saw that the bread looked very delicious, they bought one to try it on.

Even Tang Moling thought the bread was delicious, so the bread was naturally quite tasty. Unless one strongly dislikes the pickled taste of vegetables or mushrooms, they will find this bread delicious.

If one finds steamed bread bland, one can add some fermented tofu blossoms.

They taste better with homemade fermented tofu blossoms.

The people who came to sell things all came from different villages. Everyone knew each other, but they could not bear to eat food from other stalls. Still, they came to buy bread after hearing that it was delicious.

The sales that day were pretty good. They finished selling all the bread they had prepared.

Apart from the original bakery owner, who rolled his eyes at them, everyone was quite kind.

Li Zhaodi did not expect that the bread would sell well. She was so excited that she did not want to bother nagging Mu Jingzhe about not getting married.

“If the bread is selling well every time we come to the market, we can make a lot of money in a year.”

“Ya, we can also sell it near here on market day.”

They can also go to the nearest city market, but the distance is further and they have to travel an hour longer.

However, this distance meant nothing to the diligent farmer. Li Zhaodi waved her hand.

"Then let's go there to sell it!"

The hard journey of waking up early and working late into the night to sell the bakpao began. They would push their homemade tricycle, leaving the house before dawn and returning only when the sky was already dark.

It's not too bad now, because the weather is still warm. If it was winter, they would probably freeze to death.

In addition, they have to make preparations. During these two days, they could not sleep for more than a few hours.

However, Li Zhaodi did not complain. He is not afraid of hard work. “Nobody doesn't need hard work. Planting plants is even more difficult. Selling steamed bread is much better. When you sell it, you can sit down and earn some money. It beats working in the fields. ”

Seeing them working hard, Mu Teng came to help. Even Mu Han wanted to help them.

After selling bread for a month, Mu Jingzhe counted and gave half of his income to Li Zhaodi. Li Zhaodi initially did not want it and was forced by Mu Jingzhe to take the money.

“Bu, you and Dad should come whenever I'm busy. Just save.”

Now that he had the capital, Mu Jingzhe found time to go to the city to buy supplies.

He bought some cloth and prepared to make a new set of clothes for the children. They each only had one set, and there was not much they could change.

Also, their shoes are too small or worn out.

This time, Mu Jingzhe had not forgotten to make the set for Li Zhaodi, Mu Teng, and Mu Han as well.

Previously, Li Zhaodi praised the children's clothes with an envious tone. However, Mu Jingzhe had taken heart and felt a little guilty for not making a set for them.

The trip to this city cost him money he earned by selling bread, but it was a rewarding trip.

Mu Jingzhe went into town and negotiated a business deal using some examples of new designs. He handed over the hair ornament he made this time and got back the money he spent.

While making hair ornaments, he went with Li Zhaodi to sell bread twice. Afterwards, Mu Jingzhe decided not to sell the bread for now.

“Bu, from now on, you and Dad will be the only ones selling bread. You guys must be familiar with how to sell it now. You make most of the bread anyway. I really don't have any energy anymore.”

Selling bread was a more suitable business idea for Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng.

“If you are not free, I will help. This business is worth it. You have to continue it.” Mu Teng had considered a long-term plan.

“Dad, if the business is good, then you and Mom should keep working hard.” He didn't want them to have to put up with Old Madam Mu choosing them.

“I have a lot of things to do. Besides, with me going all the time, no one takes care of the children's food. I can't keep leaving them bread to steam. ”

Shao Dong and the others did not mind. Eating bread is good, because the bread is good.

However, Mu Jingzhe did not think it was a good idea.

During this period of time, Mu Jingzhe had gotten along well with them. Little Bei was close to him, Shao Dong's attitude had changed, and Shao Nan smiled widely again.

The only person who did not change much was Shao Xi. He had been watching coldly, feeling that Mu Jingzhe's thoughts were sincere and he was trying to win people's hearts.

He really wanted to have the ability to win people over.

"Xiao? Wu 1, be careful not to fall."

After Mu Jingzhe finished preparing lunch, he saw Shao Zhong chasing the little chicks in their house and quickly warned him.

Now that they had gotten more familiar with each other, Shao Zhong finally did not push Mu Jingzhe too much and quickly nodded.

During this period, Shao Zhong became more lively and bolder, but he still could not speak.

Mu Jingzhe had talked a little with her and tried to get her to speak, but to no avail.

Mu Jingzhe knew that he could neither rush nor put too much pressure on Shao Zhong. All he could do was tease her from time to time.

"Xiao Wu, count the little chicks."

The little yellow and tender chicks had just hatched not long ago. In the future, as they grow bigger, it would be better for the family to eat them. Li Zhaodi specifically made her female chickens hatch these chicks.

These were Xiao Wu's favorite playmates, and he would chase after them every day. He would struggle to feed the chicks twice a day, in the morning and evening. He knew that Mu Jingzhe did not like chicken manure, so he rarely let chickens into the yard or the house. He would clean up when he saw that they had dirtyed the place.

Mu Jingzhe had given him the task of keeping an eye on the little chicks, so he started to count seriously.

He knew how to count and quickly ran over to Mu Jingzhe. He stretched out his hand and raised two fingers, indicating that there were twelve chicks and not a single one was missing.

“Xiao Wu, you are amazing. Oh, your brothers have returned. Let's eat first.”

Then, Mu Jingzhe learned that Shao Xi had not returned with them.

“Where is Shao Xi? Is he on duty?”

"No. Teacher made him stay behind. ”

"Why?" Mu Jingzhe frowned. "Maybe it's a Chinese teacher again?"

He remembered that the last time Shao Xi misspelled a word, he had been punished for copying it 100 times.

“Mm.”

“What's the reason this time?”

"I don't know. The teacher just made him stay behind. ” Shao Dong shook his head.

"Auntie, teacher has asked Second Brother to stay behind a few times," Little Bei added.

“How many times? I think it's the only time. ”

Mu Jingzhe could tell from their expressions that it was something that happened when he went to sell bread, but they hid it from him.

"Second Brother forbid me from telling you." Little Bei glanced at Shao Dong and spoke softly.

"I'll go see."

When he got to school, all the students had already left, leaving only teachers who did not miss.

Mu Jingzhe found Shao Xi's classroom. As he approached, he heard a slap. It was the sound of the teacher slapping Shao Xi's palm.

“Are you going to write it? Do you know how to write it? ”

Mu Jingzhe knew the teacher. His name was Zhang Fei, and he taught Chinese. He was the only young male teacher in the school and he had a good relationship with the only young female teacher, Mu Xue.

When they met before, he thought he was cultured. Why is he so scary in person?

Upon seeing Shao Xi's reddened face, Mu Jingzhe hurriedly ran over.

"Stop!"

Zhang Fei turned around and frowned. "What?"

Mu Jingzhe stepped forward to inspect Shao Xi's swollen palm. "Why did he hit you so badly?"

The moment Shao Xi saw him, her expression changed. He felt embarrassed and did not want her to see him, but how could she escape?

His hands were already trembling with pain, and he was almost crying from anxiety due to his inability to break free.
