392 River Mussels

Xue Sifu smiled, “It’s fine, I’ll pass by the place. I’ll let the aunt who set up the stall near my stall know. If anyone comes to my stall, she can tell them that I’ll be setting up my stall the day after. Besides, I’ve already made Xue Yan and Jiang Yue pay for that stall for two months. Even if I don’t set up a stall now, no one can occupy it.”

“Alright, alright.” Liu Guixia laughed and was relieved. “Since the ice will only be sold the day after tomorrow, we can make more rice noodles tomorrow. With more dry rice noodles in stock, we can help make ice the day after.”

“That’s good, that’s good.” Xue Dafu laughed so hard that his teeth could be seen. “Tomorrow, the workshop’s fence will be sealed with a gate. With the gate secured, the workshop will be complete.”

“Selling ice isn’t something that can be compared to selling rice noodles. As long as the weather is hot, we can sell ice all day long,” Yu Hongyan said with a smile.

“Sifu always talks about expanding his business. Father, mother, if this goes on, our family might really have a shop in town this year.” Xue Erfu smiled.

“If that’s the case, we’ll just have to work hard towards our goal!” Liu Guixia immediately smiled.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xue Wufu’s chuckling voice could be heard. Liu Guixia’s tone immediately changed. “That should be Sanfu and Wufu!” As she spoke, she quickly put down the bowl and chopsticks, got up, and went to the stove to get two big bowls of rice for her two sons.

Just as she was scooping up the rice, the courtyard door was pushed open. Xue Wufu and Xue Sanfu walked in one after the other. Xue Wufu was very happy and even turned around to joke with Xue Sanfu, but Xue Sanfu was still very cold and aloof. Even when he responded, he was very insipid.

Xue Wufu didn’t have anything in his hands. Everything was in Xue Sanfu’s. On one hand, Xue Sanfu carried the dirty clothes and towels that he and Xue Wufu had changed out of, all wrapped together like a bundle. In his other hand, he was carrying something that looked like a hat. It looked like the hat that Xue Sanfu had worn during the day. The hat seemed to be wrapped in something, it seemed to be quite heavy.

Without waiting for anyone at home to ask, Xue Wufu jumped into his seat and said excitedly, “Sanfu went into the water and caught a lot of mussels. We can eat mussels tomorrow!”

In the past, Xue Sanfu would go to the river behind the house and bring back some mussels from time to time. Liu Guixia and the others were used to it, but they were still quite happy with the news.

It’ll be great to have more dishes at home.

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll cook it tomorrow.” Liu Guixia smiled. “You guys should hurry up and eat. We’re almost done.”

Xue Wufu immediately took a big bowl of rice to the table and took a lot of food. Then, he squatted down and ate.

Xue Sanfu put down the things in his hands before entering the shed. He took some food and sat on a long bench in front of the dining table. Without saying a word, he began to eat.

After dinner, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went to the only desk in their house.

Xue Yan sat in front of the desk with a brush in his hand. He drew on the paper according to his understanding and showed it to Jiang Yue.

“Does the small wooden cart you were talking about look something like this?

“There are four small wooden wheels under a wooden board, two in the front and two at the back. When placed on the ground, the wooden board will maintain its balance with the four wheels.”
