Quick Wear: The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 186: Transformed into the Best Brother-in-Law (5)

But at that time, the husband was the most important thing and women had to listen to men. Since Ning Shou did not allow her to copy books to make money, she had to give up the idea.

Forget it, if she doesn't want to copy, then don't copy. Anyway, if she can make money by copying books, she won't be able to explain when others ask her why she suddenly knows how to write.

In the original plot, Ning Ning did not slap them in the face. The couple "shared a common hatred and a common enemy" and got rid of the two elders of the Ning family and their original body.

After the separation, Ning Shou felt that Ma Cui'er was his closest person in the future. He would listen to Ma Cui'er's words and do whatever she said. No matter what Ma Cui'er wanted to do, he would only support her.

But now Ma Cui'er was very embarrassed. Ning Shou didn't say anything, but he even regretted it secretly in his heart. He felt that he shouldn't have divided the family, so he was not happy with her. Whatever she said, Ning Shou wanted to refute her.

Ma Cui'er sensitively realized that if her idea was to be implemented, she had to appease Ning Shoumosuo first.

So, she deliberately showed her kindness by getting up early every day to cook, keeping the house spotless inside and out, greeting Ning Shou with a smile, and even trying to please him many times on the couch, finally making Ning Shou's attitude change for the better.

She then tactfully suggested that she would like to try making pastries to earn more money.

"I heard that Ning Ning makes a lot of money. After we split up the family, we can't be worse off than them, otherwise we will be laughed at."

“Can you make pastries?”

Ning Shou looked at her suspiciously, and she quickly spoke out the words she had prepared.

"My aunt was a maid in a wealthy family. I learned this from her. But before the family was divided, your mother controlled me and I was very restricted. It's no use saying it out. Just let me make cakes and try to sell them. Since we want to have a child, we have to save more money."

After she had said all the nice things she could, Ning Shou finally agreed to let her buy less sugar and red dates and make some to try.

After saying that, he turned over and fell asleep, and farted a lot.

Ma Cui'er was so angry that she really wanted to kick him!

The person in the future that Ma Cui'er traveled to was the owner of a private restaurant. She was very skilled in cooking and making snacks. Ma Cui'er learned a lot from her.

After so many years, people's tastes have certainly changed. Ma Cui'er picked out the pastries that were most acceptable to people of her time, made a few of them, and gave them to Ning Shou to try first.

As soon as he took a sip, Ning Shou felt that the taste was amazing, but he maintained the dignity of the head of the family and nodded with a straight face, "It's okay, not bad, then you can make some and try to sell it."

Ma Cui'er simply couldn't wait any longer, so she got up early the next day, made it, and carried it in a basket to the town to sell.

They were sold out in a short while. There was even a wealthy man in the town who specially ordered some from her. He was so happy that he almost jumped for joy when he returned home.

From then on, she made cakes and sold them every day. Ning Shou saw that she was making money, so he allowed her to make more. He even helped her occasionally when the farm work was not busy, so that she could do more. Ning Shou lent her a small cart and helped her push the cakes out to sell.

After all this, she really made a lot of money.

Some people in the village looked at her in surprise and asked Ning's mother, "Ma Cui'er can make cakes? Why haven't I heard her mention it before?"

Mother Ning snorted coldly, "You have to ask her about this. I don't know. She never told me. Instead, she said that her cooking skills were not good and no one liked the food she cooked. So during the time she got married, I cooked and she helped me."

Everyone's eyes suddenly became meaningful.

Even if the family is divided, it doesn't mean that we should stop being filial to our parents.

They still lived in the same courtyard. Ma Cui'er's cakes sold so well, but she didn't give two pieces to Ning's father and mother to try. It was really unacceptable.

But whether Ma Cui'er intentionally ignored it or was too busy to remember, she hardly even spoke to the Ning family's elders, let alone sent any cakes over.

Ma Cui'er was in high spirits and planned to continue making pastries for a while, save more money, and then move to the town to stay away from these useless peasants.

But at this time, she heard bad news that Ning Ning actually wrote a play script and sold it to a passing opera troupe, and it was said that she made a lot of money.

"How ridiculous! A scholar actually writes a play script. How shameful! Shame on you!"

Ma Cui'er pulled the handkerchief and muttered to herself, wishing she could treat the handkerchief as Ning Ning's flesh!

She had watched the troupe when it came to perform, and she had heard the troupe owner complain that there were no new plays nowadays, as they were always performing the same old plays over and over again, and everyone was tired of them, but good scripts were hard to find.

Ma Cui'er forgot what she heard. What did the opera troupe's affairs have to do with her? She still had her cake and cakes to make.

Unexpectedly, Ning Ning heard this. Within two days, she wrote a script and sent it to the class owner. After reading it, the class owner was so happy that he said it was a rare and good script. He gave the script a price that was 30% higher than the market price.

Moreover, the money Ning Ning received, plus the money he had saved before, was enough to buy a house in the town, so he decided to move to the town with his parents.

The town has a larger population, so it is more convenient for him to take on more work such as copying books and writing letters. The land at home can be rented out to others for farming, so it will be much easier for Ning's parents to find a job.

It is also more convenient to go to the city from the town. The imperial examination is only two months away. I heard that Ning Ning will take the exam again this time.

In short, life in the town is more comfortable, and it is a matter of honor for any family in the village to move to the town.

This made Ma Cui'er even more embarrassed. Everyone knew that she instigated the division of the family because she felt that Ning Ning's academic performance was not good enough and had become a burden. But after the division, Ning Ning became motivated, her problems disappeared, she was willing to work hard to make money, and she did not give up her studies.

It seems like who is dragging whom down?

"Damn it, if I had known earlier, if I had known he was writing a book, I would..."

I must make him write it!

But I had to keep these words to myself. Even if I wanted to vent my anger, I couldn't say them out loud.

Ma Cui'er was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she had to do it for the sake of her reputation, otherwise the rumors in the village would only become more unpleasant.

So on the day Ning Ning and the others moved, they went to help. Even Ma Cui'er stopped selling cakes for a day, forced a smile, helped them pack their things, and followed the car they hired to town.

Ning Ning had limited money, so she only bought a small courtyard with only one main room, one side room, and a kitchen next to it. The back was for storing sundries and a place for convenience.

It wasn't very spacious, but it was enough for the three of them.

Ning Ning's classmate helped to find the house. The house is very tidy and not old.

The original owner went to live with his son in another place not long after building the house, so he was in a hurry to sell it.

Ma Cui'er couldn't find any major faults and could only force a smile.

There were a few villagers who went to help, but Ma Cui'er felt that there was something else in their eyes. She suddenly felt uncomfortable all over. She wanted to point at their noses and curse them, only then would she feel better.
