After dressing as a widow

Some Malatang diehards also went to Zhenyouwei Snacks to support Lin Zhen. They ate the newly released Malatang noodles and cold noodles, and drank the free sour plum soup. .

Some got a discount card, some got another drink, but most of them were thank you for your patronage.

Anyway, it’s all free draws, and it’s interesting to get a good card. Well, it’s okay to get a thank you for your patronage.

After a busy day, Lin Zhen led Lin Xiaoyao, Gu Shuanzi, and the others to clean the tables, chairs and benches, put away the ingredients that could be used tomorrow and eat them by themselves, and then took out the silver box and shook it.

The copper plates and broken silver in "Clattering" collide, which sounds delightful.

"Count how much you have earned today, Shuanzi, go get my bookkeeping book and see if it's right." It was really busy at three or four o'clock today, and there were a lot of people eating cold noodles and sour plum soup. Lin Zhen was too busy, so he asked Gu Shuanzi to keep the accounts by the side, using charcoal pen, although the handwriting was not pretty, but Lin Zhen went to see it, and the numbers were all right.

So later on, he simply let Gu Shuanzi be his little accountant at the counter, freeing up his hands to work with Lin Xiaoyao.

Gu Shuanzi got up to get the ledger, Lin Zhen poured the copper plates and broken silver in the box on the dustpan, separated the two first, and then counted them one by one.

When Gu Shuanzi returned to the backyard with the account book, he saw him muttering, threading a copper plate into the twine.

Gu Shuanzi put the account book in front of him, picked up another piece of twine, and counted it. In the end, there were five strings of copper coins, and there were five strings in total, that is, two and five taels of silver, and the remaining scattered were 41 pieces.

And the broken silver was weighed with a small scale, and it was seven taels of money.

Today, I sold 41 taels and [-] cents in one day, which is more than half more than selling mala tang with a small cart in a single day. Excluding various costs, today's net profit is [-] taels.

Lin Zhen leaned on the chair, feeling that his hard work during this time was worth it. From a monthly income of more than 200 taels to about [-] taels a month if all goes well, whoever is satisfied if he is not satisfied!

Gu Shuanzi kept the accounts, and he already knew how much money he had earned today, so he was already surprised.

Lin Xiaoyao, who had been busy in the backyard, was stunned. He watched everything come out of his hand, and knew that the business was good, but he still didn't expect there to be so many.

He even felt as if he didn't know Yinzi anymore.

Lin Zhen put the copper plate and broken silver back into the box and patted it on: "Eat something and go to sleep, maybe tomorrow will be even more busy."

When Lin Zhen was checking things, he found that the best sellers today were cold noodles and sour plum soup. The weather is hot, and people still prefer these cold things that can relieve heat and appetize.

Followed by Malatang and Malatang noodles, and finally milk tea.

However, it cannot stand the high unit price of milk tea, which accounts for half of the total revenue.

He estimated that the profit of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow should be similar to today's, because there are a total of three days in a month's big market, and the profit will drop a little after three days.

But on the second day, Lin Zhen realized that he had miscalculated, and there was a queue outside Zhenyouwei Snacks. Some dressed in normal clothes came to eat cold noodles and drink sour plum soup, and some dressed better asked to buy milk tea by name.

Moreover, he found that most of the people who bought milk tea were girls and younger brothers, and he also ordered Mei Niang cups.

???

What happened that he didn't know about?

Lin Zhen, who was so busy that he didn't touch the ground, didn't have time to think about it, so he simply asked to line up in two teams, one team came to eat, and the other team bought milk tea and sour plum soup.

Then Lin Zhuzi was in charge of the food side, asked the guests what they wanted to eat, went to the backyard and asked Lin Xiaoyao to make it, and served it to the guests. Lin Shitou was in charge of buying milk tea and sour plum soup, and told him that he would process it in the back, greet the guests and keep accounts. The burden of all this fell on Gu Shuanzi.

He didn't know that in a place he didn't know, seven or eight girls and brothers were gathering together, shaking fans and passionately discussing the first episode of Meiniang's story.

The round-faced girl said: "The scholar probably didn't notice Mei Niang, you nerd, you don't even know that the tea in your cup is running low."

The girl with the oval face was the opposite: "I think I've discovered it. Didn't you hear it? In the end, it didn't mean that the scholar was staring at the teacup in a daze."

"Ah, why haven't I bought it yet? These maids who run errands don't come here after drinking milk tea first. I heard that milk tea is delicious." The man who spoke was a little taller than the girl, But she looks cute and talks like a baby.

The brother next to him with a faint eyebrow said: "The restaurant is not far away, it should be coming soon."

The cute-looking brother kicked his legs, pouted and said, "Brother Sheng, this story is so beautiful, why isn't Mei Niang not Mei Geer?"

The literate brother Sheng couldn't help laughing: "Why, you still have a crush on that scholar?"

"Hey, who's falling in love with a person on a piece of paper," he said, but the expression on the face of the cute-looking brother was not like this, he whispered to Brother Sheng, "If there is such a person, Well, he is good-looking, good at reading, and has a gentle temper."

They are all acquaintances in the town, their families are not short of hundreds of taels and thousands of taels of silver, and they are all about the same age, so they get together after coming and going.

It's a good time to talk about marriage, and there are inevitably some thoughts in my heart. Since brother Sheng got a cup of novelty milk tea yesterday and shared the story of "Mei Niang" with them, everyone has been attracted.

"Mei Niang" tells the story of a scholar who went to Beijing to rush for the exam and rented a room to study his books, but he didn't know that the plum tree in the yard had become a spirit, and he opened the window day and night to read poems on the back of the plum tree. Book.

Mei Niang, the plum tree spirit, watched the scholar secretly, and from time to time while the scholar was out, she fell asleep and read his books in the room, wondering if Mei Niang's evil spirit affected him, the scholar actually had a dream, In the dream, he was the son of a noble family, and he married his fiancée who had been engaged for many years. The two played in harmony, and the wife in the dream was called Mei Niang...

The direction of the story book is clear. The relationship between Mei Shujing Mei Niang and this scholar is not simple, and the ambiguity between the two is written appropriately, transparently and captivatingly, calling these teenage girls My brother blushed when he saw it.

But that’s all for the first time, and the unfinished three words made them wish they could rush to Zhenyouwei Snacks to buy the rest of the book that night.

By the early morning of this day, several people got together and asked the maids and servants around them to buy milk tea, so they must see the following.

Brother Sheng, who was the only one who could read, looked at his little friend and said, "The milk tea with the script is delicious, you can try it later."

A few people were anxious to read the storybook, and they didn't have the heart to drink, but Brother Sheng was the most tempered among them, and he was the only one who could read, so they all nodded.

In fact, they were all thinking the same thing in their hearts, and when the servant girl came, he asked Brother Sheng to open the script book inside and read it to them.

Just as I was thinking about it, several servant girls came in with more than two cups of milk tea in their hands. The cute-looking brother rushed out like a deer first, took two cups of milk tea from his own servant, and gave a hum : "It's so cold."

He was afraid of the heat, so he immediately sat next to Brother Sheng and stuck the bamboo tube with some water droplets on his face, and gave a comfortable shudder. He was about to remove the oily paper underneath, but his hand opened it as if it had its own consciousness. The lid of the bamboo tube cup.

I saw a layer of ice cubes spread inside, which was faintly soaked by the light yellow juice below, and he couldn't help but put his mouth on it due to the rising air.

The ordinary-looking boy neatly inserted the bamboo straw into it: "The boss said to use this."

"Oh," the cute-looking brother took a sip with a straw in his mouth. The sweet milk, the QQ bouncing chewy thing between his lips and teeth, held the bamboo cup in both hands, and looked at him with bright eyes. Brother Sheng, "Drink well!"

Brother Sheng drank his drink yesterday, and told him: "Your name is pearl milk tea, and you got "Mei Niang" yesterday."

"Let me see what your cup is?" The cute-looking brother came over to have a look.

Brother Sheng used a bamboo straw to push aside some ice cubes, and saw that underneath were cherries with thick flesh and pits removed, set off by some powdery milk and crystal clear ice, which was extraordinarily beautiful.

The maid next to Brother Sheng said with great insight: "The boss said, brother, your cup is called a full cup of cherries."

……

It's really delicious. Xiaoshizhai has suddenly gained a reputation in the town. There is sour plum soup with ice. It costs four yuan a cup in the store. If you take it away, it costs five yuan a cup.

There are also Malatang and Malatang noodles, which are so fragrant that people's noses drop. They make people want to eat the second bowl after eating the first bowl.

The most discussed one is the [-] cents a cup of milk tea. I heard that the process of making the milk tea is first-class and complicated.

Lin Zhen didn't know that he suddenly had a strange deed of obtaining cooking skills from his dreams. After the three-day event, the business of Xiaoshizhai went from a pure profit of seven taels on the first day to a net profit of ten taels on the second day. On the third day, the net profit of [-] taels fell back to the net profit of [-] taels to [-] taels.

This has made him very satisfied!

It's really delicious. The business of Snacks has stabilized. Lin Zhen took Lin Xiaoyao, Lin Zhuzi, Lin Shitou, and Lin Shitou was busy from morning to night. Carpenter Ma, Brother Lin, and Brother Lin also delivered bamboo tubes and other needs in the shop every few days. materials come.

Seeing that the weather was getting hotter and the sour plum soup in the shop was getting better and better, Gu Shuanzi finally memorized the thousand-character prose by heart.

Lin Zhen looked at Gu Shuanzi who was standing in front of him, feeling like my son could finally study, he said to Gu Shuanzi: "Tomorrow morning I will take you to Mr. Chengdong's and see what he has to say. "

Because the milk tea is selling well, I wrote it twice this month, and Zhong Yan and Mrs. Chen have more time to come to the shop. Sometimes Lin Zhen simply discusses the plot of the story with Zhong Yan, so he knows Zhong Yan well. Deeper, knowing that the boy is definitely not a thing in the pool.

He said to Gu Shuanzi: "Your elder brother Zhong also goes to school with Mr. Chengdong. In the future, you can ask him if you don't understand anything. He is very knowledgeable, so it won't hurt to ask more."

The author has something to say:

Gu Shoufu looked at someone Zhong: "Brother Zhong."

Zhong Yan: "..."

Gu Shoufu is famous for holding grudges, especially when those grudges are related to his husband.
