Chapter 506: Evil Mother-in-law 52
Ma Xiangdong also felt that the house was too big and that renting a small yard would be enough.

Yuanchun took out the property certificate and handed it to Ma Xiangdong, saying with a smile, "Boss, actually I bought this house for 1,800 yuan, using the allowance you sent back over the years."

"I have already thought about these four shops in front. If we rent out three shops, one shop can be rented for ten yuan a month, and the three shops will be rented for thirty yuan, which is enough for our family to eat and drink."

"Leave one shop and we'll open a braised meat shop. This place is close to the market and department stores, so we won't have to worry about running out of business."

Yuanchun was too lazy to think about other businesses and just focused on her old business.

She has run a braised meat shop for two lifetimes and is very experienced. Moreover, the business is very profitable and not hard work, making it very suitable for the couple to run.

Qian Hongmei was surprised that her family had bought a house, but when she heard her mother-in-law said she wanted to start a business, she rubbed her hands nervously, "Mom, I've never done business before, I'm... I'm afraid I won't be able to sell it. How do you make braised meat? I've never braised it before, and I've never eaten it before. I'm afraid it won't taste good and I'll lose money."

Daya said happily, "Mom, just listen to grandma. If grandma says you want to sell braised meat, then I will definitely know how to make it. Then Erya and I will help you sell it together."

Erya nodded heavily, "Mom, I will help you sell it. I will definitely not let you lose money. If you can't sell it in the store, then we can go to the street stalls. There are many people setting up stalls in front of our school, and now everyone has been arrested."

"Yes, yes, yes. I see those stalls selling stationery, clothes and shoes, and snacks. There are a lot of people surrounding them to buy things after school. They must be able to make a lot of money. Mom, why don't we give it a try? How can we know if we can make money if we don't give it a try?"

Yuanchun glared at Qian Hongmei in frustration, "Look at you, you're not even as brave as the two kids. Okay, don't expect you to become a strong woman right away. Let me take care of you first."

After the family cleaned the house inside and out, Ma Xiangdong took Daya and Erya to report to the new school.

Yuanchun took Qian Hongmei to the market, firstly to familiarize her with the surrounding environment, and secondly to teach her how to bargain with vegetable vendors, how to reserve meat, and how to judge the quality of meat... In the evening, when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came back, their hands were full of vegetables.

Qian Hongmei said with some pain, "The vegetables in the city are too expensive. Chili peppers are ten cents per pound. If I had known that vegetables in the city were so expensive, I would have just picked some from our backyard and brought them here."

The backyard of my hometown is full of vegetables, all of which Qian Hongmei grew with hard work and watered them every day. Now that they have moved to the provincial capital, those vegetables are now available for the second room to eat.

Yuanchun said, "There is also a vegetable patch in the backyard of the new house. You can dig it up tomorrow and plant some vegetables. You will be able to eat them soon."

Qian Hongmei nodded, "Luckily, when we moved, I brought a set of farm tools with me, thinking of reclaiming a piece of wasteland outside the city."

Two days later, the family settled down, and Yuanchun took Ma Xiangdong to the provincial hospital to get a prosthesis installed.

With the prosthesis, Ma Xiangdong threw away his crutches and walked like a normal person from then on.

When Ma Xiangdong was walking back, Qian Hongmei saw him and her eyes immediately turned red. Tears streamed down her cheeks and she hugged Ma Xiangdong and cried for a long time.

Those were tears of joy.

After Ma Xiangdong got used to the prosthesis, Yuanchun pulled a cart and took the couple to a newly established vegetable market, where they bought a pig's head, a set of pig offal, and a lot of seasonings.

Yuanchun taught Qian Hongmei and Ma Xiangdong how to wash pig offal, how to braise pig head, how to braise pig offal...
