Gu Rao didn't expect Bie Ye's action. He couldn't hold the hammer firmly in his hand and dropped it halfway, but was caught by Bie Ye quickly with his eyes and hands.

Bieye also took the boards and nails from her hand.

"Nailed where?"

Gu Rao pointed to a high place, "It's better to be higher and more conspicuous, but not too high. If it is too high, short people may not be able to see it."

Bieye raised his hand to indicate his position, then turned around and asked, "Is this height enough?"

Gu Rao's eyes were full of envy.

"If I were as tall as you, I wouldn't need to move the stool just now."

Bieye said, "In the future, there is no need to move a stool to places that are out of reach, just let me come."

Gu Rao nodded obediently.

"it is good."

"Just nail it there."

As soon as Bieye hammered the nails into the wall, Feng Dafu came pulling a cart. Behind him, there was a young man carrying two buckets of water.

Feng Dafu parked the trolley in front of another house.

"Here come ten little stoves."

Gu Rao gave him two hundred coins.

Feng Dafu asked his nephew to come over. He first introduced Gu Rao and Bie Ye to his nephew, and then introduced his nephew to Gu Rao and Bie Ye. Then he moved the stove down and pulled the cart back.

Fengdonggua was all smiles.

"No boss, boss Gu, how much water do you want to buy?"

Gu Rao asked, "How do you sell your water?"

Fengdong Gua smiled and said, "The water in the entire Yezhu Town costs two cents per load. I am strong, and every load of water will be full. You will not suffer any loss."

"The well in my family is inherited from our ancestors. We have made a living by selling water for generations. We are famous in Yezhu Town. Everyone knows that the water we sell comes from the well in our own yard and never from the Liusha River. The water confuses the guests.”

"People wash clothes and feet in the Liusha River every day, and there are also people who drink and bathe in it. It's very dirty. Drinking the water in it will cause stomach upset."

Gu Rao glanced at the bucket he placed on the ground. It was indeed full. As he walked along, little was spilled on the ground.

"From now on, please bring a load of water to our family every day."

Fengdong Gua’s eyes lit up.

"Okay!"

He pointed to the water he picked up and asked, "Do you want to buy this load of water? If you want, I will pick it up for you and pour it into the water tank."

Gu Rao nodded.

"want."

"The water consumption should be very large today. Please make a few more trips and pick up a few more loads of water until the water tanks at my house are filled. We will pay the bill together later."

Fengdong Gua was overjoyed.

"it is good!"

He first picked up this load of water, poured it into someone else's water tank, and then went home to fetch water full of energy.

Gu Rao asked Bieye to bring out two large tables and place them side by side. Then he arranged ten small stoves in a row of five and placed them side by side on the table.

Take out some of the rice noodles that were dried yesterday and put them into a big basin. Pour cold water into the big basin. Soak the rice noodles in the cold water. Place the big basin next to the path.

Bie Ye also washed the casseroles and took out twenty casseroles, ten each of large and small casseroles, and placed them in wooden basins for later use.

At this hour, there are still very few people on the streets.

But the vendors have already set up their stalls.

Gu Rao said to Bieye, "Wait for me at home while I go out to buy some ingredients. By the way, set up the table and stools in the yard. There are also green onions, coriander, garlic, and ginger. You can cut more of these and use a big bowl. Put it on the table outside and use it when cooking casserole rice noodles."

Bieye nodded yes.

"come back earlier."

After Gu Rao went out, she bought fresh pea sprouts, tofu, fungus, and mushrooms on the street. She negotiated a long-term order with the vendors and asked them to deliver them to her home early every morning.

The quantity ordered is very small at the moment. If business is good in the future, we will increase the quantity.

After returning home, Gu Rao placed the ingredients in the kitchen on the table, cut the pea shoots, tofu, fungus, and mushrooms he bought and put them in basins for later use.

At this time, the sun came out completely, and there were gradually more and more people on the street.

Zhen Qianduo came to town to buy a drink and stopped by Bieye's house to take a look. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he saw the couple setting up a stall in front of the door, apparently wanting to sell food.

After hesitating for a moment, he came over.

"Bie Ye, how have you been in town recently? Are you still used to it?"

"If you are not used to living in the town, you can always go back to our Taohua Village. There are vacant houses in Taohua Village, and it doesn't cost much to buy them."

Bieye smiled and said, "Thank you to the village chief for your kindness. However, I don't want to get involved with Liu Guihua for the time being. Living in the village and being close to her will inevitably lead to unpleasantness again."

Zhen Qianduo expressed his understanding.

After looking at the simple stall, he asked with interest, "What do you plan to sell? I haven't had breakfast yet, so I want to take care of your business."

Bieye pointed to the signboard and said, "We sell clay pot rice noodles. The varieties are written on it. The village chief can see what flavor he wants."

Zhen Qian is mostly literate.

When he saw the charcoal calligraphy on the wooden board, a flash of admiration flashed through his eyes, and he exclaimed, "This calligraphy is really beautiful. Was it written by your wife?"

There used to be private schools in Peach Blossom Village, and even the most talented people were initiated in private schools in Peach Blossom Village. However, later, the master of the private school died of old age and illness, and the private school in Peach Blossom Village disappeared.

Bieye was smart since he was a child. When Bieye was still alive, when Da Zhuang was still alive, he sent Bieye to a private school when he was three years old. Bieye also became a talented person and became the most valued student of the Master at a young age.

Unfortunately, the good times are not long.

After Bie Chengcai was born, Liu Guihua stopped letting Bie Ye continue studying.

Bieye has been busy making money for so many years and has neglected his studies. Although he still remembers the knowledge he learned in those three years and can recognize and write, his writing is not very good.

He happened to see the calligraphy written by Bieye.

"Learn more from your wife, even though she's not like your brother..." Thinking that the two families had distanced themselves from each other, he changed his tune and said, "Although you don't have to take the imperial examination to become a talented person, it is still a good thing to know a few more words. It will always be useful. The place where it’s stuck.”

Beyeye nodded.

"it is good."

Zhen Qianduo then asked, "What are casserole rice noodles? I have never heard of them. There are so many flavors. I don't know which ones are delicious. You can make me any one."

Gu Rao asked, "Can the village chief eat spicy food?"

Zhen Qianduo smiled and said, "I like spicy food, please put more chili pepper in it."

Gu Rao said, "My favorite is spicy and sour casserole rice noodles. Since you said whatever you want, I will cook you my favorite spicy and sour casserole rice noodles."

"We are from the same village, and the village chief has helped us a lot before. I will cook a big pot for you and calculate the cost of the small pot."

Zhen Qianduo felt comfortable.

"Then I won't be polite."

Bieye has already burned two stoves. Gu Rao will take out a large casserole from the wooden basin and place it on the stove with charcoal fire. First, pour water into it and add chopped mushrooms and fungus.

After the water boils, add chopped sauerkraut, tofu, minced ginger and garlic, etc., then add a little salt and chicken essence, cover the casserole, and simmer over low heat for half a cup of tea.

Add the soaked rice noodles, cook for a while, add pepper, red pepper powder, pickled pepper powder, vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, tomato sauce, stir evenly, add pea sprouts, a little chopped green onion and coriander.

After cooking, wrap the ears on both sides of the casserole with cloth, pick up the casserole, and place it on a table covered with a round straw mat that is larger than the casserole.

While she was cooking the casserole, the distant fragrance attracted many passers-by.

"Boss, how do you eat here?"

"How come I've never seen it before?"

"It looks similar to noodles, so why is it so much more expensive than noodles?"

"Eight cents for a small pot and ten cents for a big pot. It's too expensive!"
