A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

In this era, one penny can buy a steamed bun, and two penny can buy a meat bun. Unexpectedly, this ordinary tofu brain in front of me would dare to ask for three pennies.

"Sister-in-law, what kind of tofu buns are you talking about? How come they are more expensive than steamed buns?" someone couldn't help but ask.

At this time, a woman holding a little boy happened to pass by. Seeing a group of people surrounding the boy, he couldn't help but want to come forward and join in the fun.

The little boy got into the crowd and saw that food was being sold inside, so he clamored for food. The woman couldn't bear it, so she stepped forward to ask the price.

Chen Changsheng knew from the look of the mother and son in front of him that they were well-dressed and did not look like people who were short of money.

Before Chen Changsheng could speak, the onlookers answered for her first, "This bowl of tofu puffs costs three cents, which is one cent more expensive than the meat buns."

The woman frowned slightly, with some surprise on her face.

Sure enough, it's not cheap.

The woman thought that although her family was relatively wealthy and could not afford three pennies, it was just that this tofu brain was just a food to amuse the children, and it cost three pennies, so it was not worth it.

For three cents, she bought a meat bun and a steamed bun. The meat bun was taken back for her man to eat, and the steamed bun was for the children. Isn't it delicious?

After thinking for a while, the woman took the child and wanted to turn around and leave, but the little boy started crying instead.

The woman bent down and coaxed the child softly, "Bao'er, be good, we won't eat. Mom will buy you a big meat bun to eat, okay?"

The little boy named Bao'er stood in front of Chen Changsheng's table, holding on to the table tightly and refusing to leave, "No, no, mother, I just want to eat this tofu cake."

The boy swayed and acted coquettishly, his eyes fixed on the tofu brain in front of him, and he swallowed.

The woman looked embarrassed and was about to reprimand the child when Chen Changsheng said, "Madam, although my tofu bread sells for three cents, the portion is full. One bowl can't be eaten by a child, not even an adult." People can also eat half full.”

A few people took a look, and the portion of the bowl was indeed not small.

Seeing that the woman was still hesitant, Chen Changsheng increased the heat. She pointed to the brown sugar and hawthorn chips on the table, "Three pennies for a bowl, and added brown sugar and hawthorn chips. It's cold, sweet, nutritious and silky. Even if you buy this brown sugar alone in the store, it costs fifteen cents, and the hawthorn costs twenty cents per pound."

Then, she opened the lid of the marinade and said, "If you don't like sweet food, we also have salty marinade. It's salty and delicious, and it costs three pennies a bowl."

Chen Changsheng smiled again and said, "If the guest doesn't like sweet or salty food, you can also try our classic original flavor, which is mellow and delicate and only costs two cents a bowl."

After hearing what Chen Changsheng said, several people added brown sugar and chopped hawthorn. A bowl of three pennies seemed not to be that expensive.

The little boy shook the woman's hand and pouted, "Mom, Bao'er wants to eat something sweet. Eat something sweet."

The woman couldn't live without it. Three cents could not only coax Bao'er from crying, but also make her full. She could also taste the extra leftovers.

After thinking about it, the woman took out three coins and handed them to Chen Changsheng, "Okay, then give me a bowl."

Chen Changsheng turned his head and called to Sixi, "Sixi, collect the money!"

Chen Sixi took the three coins, put them into the cloth bag on his chest, and pressed the openings carefully.

Chen Changsheng asked again, "Guest, do you want it iced or at room temperature?"

The woman had just gotten off the boat and it was very hot. She said without thinking, "I want some ice."

Chen Changsheng thought for a moment, raised his head, smiled at the woman, and said with concern, "Madam, I see that you have just got off the boat. You and the young master have been on the boat all night, and your stomachs are probably empty."

The woman nodded, indeed. She took her child on a boat ride for a day and a night. Bao'er was young and a little seasick, so the two of them only ate some pastries.

"Children's stomachs are not as good as those of adults. I'm afraid that the young master will feel uncomfortable if he drinks ice. Why don't I give you a bowl with less ice? It can relieve the heat and won't hurt your stomach. What do you think?"

Children's intestines and stomachs are relatively fragile. If they eat ice on an empty stomach early in the morning, they may suffer from diarrhea, gastrointestinal cramps and other discomforts.

Now this is ancient times, and the medical level is underdeveloped. If something goes wrong because of eating her iced tofu brain, she will have a hard time with her conscience.

The woman thought that the woman selling tofu bread was quite attentive and considerate, and she nodded and agreed that Chen Changsheng would give her a bowl of Shaobing.

Chen Changsheng took out the bowl of tofu that had just been chilled in the mountain spring water for a while, and touched the edge of the bowl. The heat had receded, and it had a slight cold feeling, which was just right.

She scooped out half a spoonful of brown sugar and another half a spoonful of chopped hawthorn, spread them evenly on the surface of the tofu, and prepared to pass them over.

After thinking about it again, Chen Changsheng said with a smile, "This guest, you are the first customer of my tofu noodle business. In this way, I will give you another spoonful of chopped hawthorn. After drinking it, your appetite will be worked up. Wait a moment." It’s time for lunch at noon.”

The woman who bought the tofu puff was also very happy when she heard it. Unexpectedly, the boss even offered her an extra spoonful of ingredients, "Okay, thank you very much."

The little boy had already sat obediently on the stool. As soon as the bowl was pushed over, his chubby little hands immediately scooped up a spoonful of tofu and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Mom, this tastes delicious, sweet and a little sour." The little boy grinned.

"As long as it tastes good, baby, eat it." The woman just thought that the child was greedy and liked to eat.

The little boy scooped another spoonful of tofu puffs and raised the spoon high, "Mom, come and try it too. Ah."

The woman looked at her little son's filial behavior, smiled tenderly, leaned down and took a sip obediently. She felt a cool and refreshing feeling in her mouth, her chest suddenly felt much smoother, and most of the nausea from the boat ride was gone.

"This, this is so delicious."

She thought it was just something to tease her children, so the woman didn't expect much from the tofu, but she didn't expect it to taste so delicious.

It's sweet and sour, which immediately whets your appetite. It's also icy and cold. After one sip, you feel your whole body cool down.

These three cents are indeed worth it!

The little boy looked at the woman's expression, took another spoonful and raised it obediently, "Mom, eat again."

The woman touched the child's head lovingly and said, "Bao'er loves to eat, please eat more."

Chen Changsheng looked at the loving mother and filial son in front of him. At first he thought the little boy was a spoiled brat, but unexpectedly he turned out to be a filial child.

She thought for a moment, opened her mouth and said, "This guest, how about a bowl for you? You can try our salty tofu puffs, which are also very delicious, so you can taste both flavors."

The woman hesitated for a moment, then thought about it, three pennies was actually not that expensive. She nodded and took out another three cents, and ordered a bowl of iced mushroom-flavored tofu puffs.

Chen Si happily put the money into the cloth bag neatly, and San Shou quickly brought out a portion of tofu puffs that had been chilled for a long time.

Chen Changsheng scooped up a spoonful of salty mushroom marinade and pushed the tofu to the woman.

The woman lowered her head and took a sip, and couldn't help but praise, "It's so fresh! There seems to be mushrooms and something else, but I can't taste it. I didn't expect that the salty tofu puffs also have a unique flavor."
