The happy little days of the Ye family

Father Ye feels that it is easier to accumulate regular customers with a fixed stall.

Unfortunately, the stalls on North Street cannot be rented for a long time, so Father Ye has to establish a good relationship with the person responsible for managing the rental of the stalls, and rent the stall for tomorrow in advance before going home every day.

Father Ye came to the place where the stall was set up every day and quickly placed the various things he brought. The water chestnut cake made by Wang Chunyu was placed in the most conspicuous place.

Wang Chunyu plans to sell the recipe for water chestnut cake. This should be the last time Father Ye sells water chestnut cake on North Street.

Yesterday, Father Ye specially asked Wang Chunyu to make more water chestnut cakes. Today he brought two large baskets of water chestnut cakes.

Father Ye has been setting up a stall on North Street for some time. Everyone knows that Father Ye will come here to set up a stall in the afternoon.

As soon as Father Ye finished tidying up the stall, a boy and a maid came to the stall.

The boy was an old acquaintance. He came here every day to buy pastries and roast duck. Today, if there was no roast duck, I had to order half a roast chicken and two pieces of water chestnut cake.

Another maid, the maid of Li Yuanwai's eldest daughter, immediately ordered 4 pieces of water chestnut cakes and 4 pieces of red date cakes, and 2 pieces each of other pastries.

So many pastries were sold at once, and Father Ye was beaming with joy.

After a while, someone else came to the stall to buy roast duck. The stallholders were a little disappointed when they found out that Father Ye’s stall would no longer sell roast duck.

However, Father Ye was very eloquent. People who came to buy roast duck ended up leaving with the roast chicken, and some even brought other items from the stall.

The gold silk handkerchiefs made by Ye Qingqing are somewhat famous in the neighborhood, and occasionally people ask if they have embroidered pictures.

Father Ye was packing up things that had been messed up, when a woman dressed in rich clothes came up from the stall.

It turns out that in the woman's family, an elder will have a birthday next month, and the woman wants a birthday painting.

Even a small embroidery pattern can take at least 20 days to complete. It's too late for Ye's mother and Ye Qingqing to do anything now, and Ye's father can only watch the money slip away from his hands.

After the woman left, Father Ye had an idea and planned to collect a batch of embroidery products from the village and sell them at a stall.

There are many people in the village who can do embroidery, such as Wang Duoduo, her mother Chen Xiaoyun, and the village chief's eldest daughter-in-law. Although the embroidery made by these people is not as good as Ye Mu and Ye Qingqing, it is still good.

He can buy cheap handkerchiefs and small embroidered pictures directly, and large embroidered items can be put on consignment at the stall like Ye Qingqing.

Although the money earned from consignment is not as much as direct buyout, there is no cost for consignment and the risk is much smaller.

And Ye Mu is embroidering a large picture of Guanyin sending her son off, but it will take about half a month to embroider it.

This time, Ye’s mother planned to put this embroidery pattern on Father Ye’s stall to try it out. She wanted to see if anyone in the town would be willing to buy such a large embroidery pattern.

If the big pictures can be sold in the town, all the embroidery that Ye's mother plans to make in the future will be sold at Ye's father's side.

Instead of letting the embroidery shop make money away, it is better to sell the embroidery products at your own stall.

Father Ye was lucky today. A young woman came to the stall. The woman planned to go back to her parents' home tomorrow and bought half of the pastries from Father Ye's stall.

The stall has a dazzling array of things, almost everything, and most people passing by will take a second look, so the business at the stall is pretty good.

By the time the sun set halfway up the mountain, all the pastries and roast chickens had been sold out, and several other sundries on the stall had been sold one after another.

Father Ye waited and waited but did not see Baishi coming to buy the son. He thought he regretted not wanting the recipe for the horseshoe cake.

When Father Ye was preparing to pack up the stall and go home, Bai Shi finally came over.

The two of them didn't say much. They handed over the money in one hand and the prescription in the other.

Just like yesterday, Shiraishi also wrote a special letter of guarantee.

After the Ye family sold the recipe for the water chestnut cake to the Bai family restaurant, they could no longer set up a stall selling water chestnut cake on North Street.

After putting away the water chestnut cake recipe and the letter of guarantee, Shiraishi left in a hurry.

The ovens could not be passed around, so early in the morning Baishi took his son himself and built several ovens in the back kitchen of the Bai family restaurant.

The oven cannot be used today, but Shiraishi is not idle either. He specially adjusted the spices for marinating the roast duck in the afternoon.

In addition, Shiraishi also studied several oven-baked dishes with the restaurant's two chefs.

Shiraishi is gearing up. Tomorrow, when the oven is completely dry, he can cook roast duck, roast chicken and roast ribs.

Baishi felt that the Ye family's horseshoe cake was too rough and not refined enough. At noon, he took time to find a carpenter and made several beautiful molds for the horseshoe cake.

Baishi was so busy today that he finally found time to come see Father Ye.

After the nearby aunts and ladies informed each other, people in several nearby alleys knew that the Ye family's braised pork shop was about to close, and they were also planning to rent out the braised pork shop.

Although the Ye family's shop is not at the end of the alley and is only the third room, it is very close to the academy and the shop is newly built, so it is still very good.

Early the next morning, someone came to look at the shop.

The person who came to see the shop was named Deng. He was an old scholar in the town. He looked to be about the same age as Mr. Ye.

Deng Xiucai is also considered a celebrity in the town. He was admitted as a scholar at the age of 13, but in the decades after he was admitted as a scholar, he has not been able to pass the examination.

The Deng family, which was originally relatively wealthy, was depleted by supporting Deng Xiucai.

Now that Deng Xiucai is getting older, he finally understands that he is not the material for the scientific examination, and plans to open a bookstore to make a living.

Deng Xiucai took a fancy to the fact that this shop was near the academy, and there were many scholars living in Juren Lane, so he planned to rent the Ye family's shop to open a bookstore.

Father Ye considered that the grocery store had used books for rent and various reading supplies. If he opened a bookstore next door, it would definitely have an impact on the grocery store's business, so he refused immediately.

Deng Xiucai persuaded Ye's father for a long time, but Ye's father firmly disagreed.

Just as Deng Xiucai left, a middle-aged man came behind him.

The man planned to open a small cloth shop. He heard that there was a shop for rent here, so he came over to take a look.

The Ye family's shop is very spacious and well-lit, so it is good in itself. But the shop is not at the end of the alley, and there are not many people living in the nearby alleys, so the location is a bit bad.

It is definitely better to open a Buzhuang in a crowded and lively place.

After a brief stroll around, the man shook his head and left without asking about the rent.

Because it is estimated that many of Ye Donglin's grocery stores will not be able to open, the father and son would be most satisfied if they rented it to others and opened a small restaurant.

In this way, it will not affect the business of the grocery store, but it can also compete with Yan's braised meat shop, killing two birds with one stone.

It was difficult to find a tenant to open a small restaurant, so the shop went around and around and finally rented to Bai Yaowen, the eldest son of shopkeeper Bai.

Bai Yaowen was planning to open a small restaurant. Seeing that the Ye family's shop was near the academy, and there were masters and students coming to eat at noon on weekdays, he rented the shop.

Father Ye was very happy that Bai Yaowen rented a shop and opened a small restaurant. Yan Dafu was probably going to be angry to death.

It depends on how long you can be proud of it. This Yan's Braised Meat Shop will be closed sooner or later.
