Chapter 324: Response to Abnormal Weather 3
荷庄
After Su He finished the internal meeting, grandpa and others did not leave. They followed him to He Zhuang to have lunch.
Fortunately, Su He brought a lot of cold noodles, which was enough for everyone to eat until they were 70% full.
Wang Fugui finished his portion in just a few bites. While serving the soup, he praised Su He's cold noodles for being delicious.
"Lotus, this noodle is good. It's very comfortable to eat in summer. Do you want to go to our tea stall?"
Of course there is no problem with Suhe. In addition to cold noodles, there is also cold skin, and barbecue in summer.
Barbecue tools require iron, which was a concern in Huaihe Suhe before. But now Suhe has the support of the county magistrate and is full of confidence.
"Yes, summer is coming, and I have a lot of fresh food that I haven't prepared yet. We also need to raise more pigs, and we can feed them with sweet potato leaves. In the future, every household will make some bacon and sausage, and there is no need to worry about not being able to eat them all. As long as there is no landslide, the tea stall will continue to operate, and the meat will definitely sell well."
Grandma spoke for the first time.
"Hehua, do you think we should find two midwives? Although we have doctors in our village, it is better to have a midwife for women to give birth."
"Okay, I'll look for it this month. Aunt He has a wide network of contacts, so ask her to help find it."
But when grandma heard it was He Huiru, she immediately became unhappy.
"Don't let her look for it, Lotus, find someone else."
Su He was slightly startled and subconsciously looked at her grandfather, who frowned and tried to reconcile them.
"Hehua doesn't know, so you should at least explain it to me."
Grandma snorted coldly and walked over to hold Su He's hand.
"Hehua, He Huiru is going too far. She actually wants Chuchu's child to have the surname He. Don't you think this is a clear way to make us marry into the family? How can we, Binzi, put our dignity aside?"
Su He frowned slightly. He didn't mention it when they were dating, but now that they were married, it was clearly a case of acting without first reporting the matter to the authorities later.
"What grandma said makes sense. If you had intended to do this before, you should have made it clear when we met. Now it's obvious that you are bullying us to make things easier for us."
Grandma slapped her thigh excitedly, "That's right, I said that Hehua and I are of the same mind, and it was He Huiru who took the initiative in this marriage. Why should our Binzi suffer such a big loss? I firmly disagree."
Su He looked at her grandmother who was extremely angry, and she didn't understand why He Huiru did this. Originally, her grandmother's family took good care of He Chuchu, but now with such a commotion, they must be feeling upset.
Even in modern times, it is rare for a man to take the woman's surname.
"What did my cousin say?"
Grandma was also very pleased when she talked about her eldest grandson.
"Binzi said, listen to me, either don't give birth, or give birth to a child with the surname Wang."
Wang Bin is quite tough.
"Where's Chuchu?"
"Alas, she neither opposes nor supports. Now I think she has a bad temper. It's fine when nothing goes wrong, but when something serious happens, she still relies on us old people. I still like your aunt's straightforward personality."
There was no one else in the room at this time, so grandma spoke more bluntly.
Su He could hear a bit more disdain towards He Chuchu in her grandma's words.
"Grandma, do you need me to talk to Aunt He?"
"No need. You are a man who does great things. You don't need to worry about these little things. I have already told Chuchu that we can either get a divorce or not have a child. If we have a child, the surname must be Wang."
Sun has always been a gentle person and very kind to her family.
But once you touch her weak spot, she won't give you a good face.
Su He looked at his grandfather and uncles, who were silent, and it was obvious that they had reached an agreement.
If that's the case, she won't worry about it anymore.
"Okay, I'll go ask about the midwife. I'll go to the city after the sweet potatoes are harvested. Grandma, grandpa, and three uncles, I'll leave this place to you."
Grandpa and the others nodded seriously. After lunch, they did not leave, but went to the vicinity of Hezhuang to check and discuss the selection of a site to build a house.
An hour later, everyone returned to Tianyuan Village in a mighty procession.
After Su He returned home, she had been preparing materials in the house, first the precautions for growing potatoes and peanuts, and then the new food for the tea stall. This time, she gave all of them to Yanzhi. Yanzhi could just ask Tiantian if she didn't know any words.
"I'll find someone to make the barbecue tools when I get back to the city. When they're done, I'll come back and show you how good I am."
Suhe kebabs are quite good. If there is no beer here, we use rice wine instead. Add fried chicken and it is a standard summer dish.
By the way, there are also watermelons. We missed planting them in the spring, so let’s replant them in the summer.
The watermelon varieties in her space are particularly sweet and seedless, and can be sold at a higher price.
After finishing all this, Su He hurriedly finished his dinner and went back to his room to rest.
She got up early today and had a busy day. She was physically and mentally exhausted and fell asleep before dark.
Three days later, everyone started digging sweet potatoes.
Su He visited every household and added 200 kilograms of sweet potatoes to each one while no one was paying attention. She added even more to her own household, adding 300 kilograms.
These extra sweet potatoes were secretly hidden under Su He's intentional or unintentional suggestion. In addition to the 8 kilograms of sweet potatoes reserved, the people from the government took away kilograms of sweet potatoes.
Su He felt relaxed as he watched the grain transport team slowly move away.
Okay, now they just have to take good care of their own land.
On the evening of the day the grain was shipped away, Suhe held a brief meeting.
This time everyone was in the newly built meeting hall.
You still have to bring your own bench, but it's sheltered from the wind and rain, so everyone listened quietly. Su He found that she didn't have to speak loudly.
"The first thing is to change the food in the tea stall. We have been open for nearly a month. Some food is very popular, but some food sells less than one serving every day. We will remove these small quantities of food first. In addition, we will add some new food. For the new food we will release next, we will try to choose low-cost ones. I have written a few recipes myself, and I will make them and sell them one by one."
Then there are the personnel changes at the tea stall. From now on, the general managers will be Wang Qingshan and Su Yumin. The female family members will be managed by Ma Yuzhen and Jin Guihua. Wang Yanzhi and Su Yuwen will still be in charge of the accounting. The other waiters and servants are performing well at the moment, so there will be no changes for the time being. I will discuss the specific details with the managers. "
Wang Laowu listened for a long time and wondered why he was kicked out of the team and why his elder brother took over.
Wang Laoliu skillfully worked with Wang Laosi to control Wang Laowu.
Su He smiled and continued.
"Everyone knows about our sweet potato submission. I have never thought of asking for silver. This year's grain production has decreased and we need to eat every day, so I have discussed with the county magistrate and will exchange it for old grain after the autumn harvest. This will be cost-effective for everyone. If anyone wants silver, you can come and tell me first. We can settle the silver according to the current price of rice, and the old grain will belong to me."
Su He intentionally paused for a few seconds, wanting to see if anyone wanted to exchange, but no one was willing. No one was a fool. The price of grain would get higher and higher in the future. Every household had silver, but no one thought grain was too much.
Su He looked at the fact that no one was exchanging silver and nodded with satisfaction. The people of Tianyuan Village had been screened countless times, and those who remained were all smart people.
