Chapter 191: Washing feet well
Chapter 191: Washing feet well
It took a lot of effort for Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin to get out of bed the next day.
This business is really not easy to do.
Taoer made breakfast. The children knew how hard they worked, so they got up early and packed everything that could be packed. They even washed the dishes for the two of them for lunch.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin came over and saw that the house was tidy enough by the children. They were so moved. This might be the most heartwarming moment of raising a child.
Unable to restrain their hands, the two pinched the children's faces one by one. The children did not feel uncomfortable at all when being abused by their two mothers, but raised their little faces expectantly.
After dinner, the children went to school as usual. After the two beatings Erhe received yesterday, no one dared to say no to school today.
After finishing their meal, Master Jiang took Jiang Shui and hurried to the water mill. The two of them wanted to ask whether that family had come to cause trouble again last night.
But as he watched the two people running farther and farther away, the words he wanted to ask were stuck in his throat.
But I guess nothing happened, otherwise, given Mr. Jiang's personality, the food would have spilled out on the dinner table.
These past two days, he and Mr. Chen have felt like close friends regardless of age difference. Whenever he has time, he would go to see Mr. Chen. I wonder what these two people with such a big age gap and living environment talk about all day.
With Mr. Chen and Mr. Jiang in charge of the water mill, the two were not worried. Today their main task was to get the glycerin out.
Last night, Dashu and Hui Niang had already taken out the calcined chalk, pounded it into fine pieces and put them in their pockets.
I have to say, these two kids are really careful in doing things. Their meticulousness is impeccable.
This morning the two had to move the walnut oil out of the warehouse before the workers arrived, so no one had arrived when they went there.
After the two of them moved all the things over, people started to arrive one after another.
The two were making glycerin in the house and were also busy in the yard. The work was not heavy today, so they would go out to take a look from time to time.
Now this group of workers are very skilled and are determined to make money, so they work quickly and well.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin watched several of them and found they were doing very well, so they felt relieved.
After filtering out the glycerin, the two collected the soap and put it in the bottom of the basin to press it down. The soap they made last time had not been used yet because it did not take shape and turned into a pool of mud the next day.
If you really want to mass-produce, you have to study how to better shape and preserve it, and you also have to customize special molds.
After cleaning up, the two simply put the glycerin and soap into the room next to Mr. Jiang. That room was locked, so it would be inconvenient for the workers to go in and drink water.
After finishing all this, the two of them went straight home to prepare for lunch.
Zheng Yuan really had a headache. He used to think cooking was quite fun, but now it had turned into making a big pot of rice, which had become a task and was not so wonderful anymore.
Fortunately, the children had already done everything they could tonight, so the two of them didn't have to be so busy.
Today's meal is similar to yesterday's, except that the shredded radish is replaced with shredded kimchi.
When the children come back, we will do the same as yesterday and send the food from the water mill over, and the others will eat at home.
The weather is too hot today, so we just hold a bowl each and squat under the eaves to enjoy the cool while eating.
While they were eating, Jiang Dayou came back with Jiang Feng.
"Oh, this is really the right time to wash my feet on New Year's Eve, and I even got there." Jiang Dayou greeted everyone in the yard with a smile.
"Dad! Where is Aji?" Master Jiang put down his bowl and stood up to greet him. His first question was about Aji.
"You little brat, you didn't ask me after not seeing me for so many days, but asked Aji instead. I sent your Aji to teach the newly recruited waiter, and that kid was born to do this." Jiang Dayou slapped Master Jiang on the head.
Young Master Jiang covered his head, but he was not angry and just laughed.
"That's not the case. Mr. Jiang is really good at picking dates. It looks like we have to celebrate 30th this year the same as last year, haha."
"Master Jiang, please tell us when we should wash our feet."
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin also joked and walked forward.
"Dad, what are you doing here?" Although he still missed his father in his heart, Master Jiang spoke as if he didn't want his father to come.
"Hey! You little brat, do I need your permission to come here? I think your two aunts are so good to you that they don't even want to take care of our business, leaving your father to work hard outside and have to come and give you an explanation."
"Ouch, Dad, let go, let go! That's not what I meant." Young Master Jiang pried open Mr. Jiang's hand that was pinching his ear, and cried out in pain.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin were too lazy to get involved in the lawsuit between the two, so they went to the kitchen to bring out the food and handed it to Jiang Dayou and Jiang Feng.
They had lunch from a big pot these past two days, and since there were so many people, there weren't enough bowls, so they were not allowed to set up a table for the meal.
Jiang Dayou and Jiang Feng did not dislike it. They took it and squatted under the eaves and started eating like everyone else.
After dinner, the two of them cleaned up and the children went to bed. Carpenter Li and his family returned to their home, and the old lady and her two companions also went to the factory.
Jiang Dayou was sitting under the eaves talking with Mr. Jiang, talking about the things they had arranged outside in the past few days.
After Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin packed up and went out, Mr. Jiang called them over.
"Two girls, I won't be polite. I'm so proud to call you girls, please don't mind."
"No, no, we're not used to you calling me Madam all the time. So we'll just call you Brother Jiang." The two were very happy to change the title from Madam.
"Then the two aunts should also call me Ye'er. I feel uncomfortable always calling me Young Master Jiang." Young Master Jiang took the opportunity to express his own ideas.
"Okay, that's a lot closer. Girls, just call him Ye'er. What nonsense is Young Master Jiang or Master Jiang? Those are only used to address outsiders. We don't need to be so polite."
"Haha, okay, okay, then we can just call you Xiaoye." Zheng Yuan suggested.
Ye'er felt it was too intimate and couldn't call her that.
"It's all fine. It depends on what you're used to." Mr. Jiang didn't care.
"It's like this, ladies. I came back this time to give you a can of toothpaste."
"That's great. We were originally thinking about going to the city to buy some, but we didn't expect Mr. Jiang to be so thoughtful."
In fact, the two of them were too embarrassed to say it, and they almost forgot about it.
"The temporary purchases always fail to meet our requirements. This time I went to a familiar factory and asked them to make a batch for us."
"It's at the toothbrush factory right now. Let's go take a look. Our toothbrush factories have also officially started production. The products they make may not be exactly the same as yours, but they are about 80% to 90% the same."
"I came back this time to deliver the jars, and secondly, the toothpaste needs to be produced as soon as possible. We have all the raw materials ready, so I came to find the two girls to decide on a final recipe."
Jiang Dayou explained the purpose of his visit. This business was now the focus of Jiang's business. He did many things personally and would not tolerate any mistakes.
"Okay, we're almost ready. Let's do this. We'll dictate and you write down the recipe. You won't go wrong if you follow it."
The two of them were also straightforward. Since they had already signed the contract, they still trusted the Jiang family.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin went to the house to get paper, pen and ink. When the paper was distributed, they also got a portion. By the way, Duan Minmin took a look at the formula she wrote down last time to confirm that she remembered it correctly.
Jiang Dayou signaled to his son to start writing while he watched from the side.
