[Comprehensive] The number one cannon fodder
Chapter 489
Su Xueyun nodded to the proprietress, "It's all done, I don't know if it suits your liking, you can take a look first, I'll make changes if there's anything inappropriate."
The proprietress smiled with satisfaction: "You are always so polite, just call me Sister Fang. Come on, sit and drink some tea first, and let me see how the flowers look."
Su Xueyun sat down at the small wooden table as she said, glanced at Li Xiner, and asked with a smile: "Sister Fang, do you have guests here? Don't greet me, it's not my first time here."
The proprietress looked at Li Xiner, and suddenly thought that what Li Xiner said just now was from Yunshui Village, isn't that Su Xueyun's fellow villager?Then he glanced at Su Xueyun with some hesitation, and said tentatively: "This girl has a few flower patterns, let's see if it suits, but I think the pattern is a bit weird, I don't know if it is good or not, why don't Xiu'er help me?" palm eye?"
Su Xueyun knew that it was because the proprietress valued her, and she was afraid that she would offend someone she knew unintentionally, and make her have some bad thoughts.Normally, Su Xueyun would of course say that she had nothing to do with it, but she glanced at Li Xiner's embarrassed face, slightly raised the corners of her mouth, and said with a smile: "Since Sister Fang trusts me, I'll ask you to help me take a look."
The proprietress saw that something was coming, she enthusiastically dragged Su Xueyun to the counter and showed her some paintings on the counter.
Li Xin'er's face was flushed, she grabbed her own painting, and said forcefully: "No need, I know whether my flowers look good or not. Since I don't know the goods here, I'll go to another place."
The proprietress's complexion suddenly turned ugly, she twitched her mouth, and said sarcastically: "This business, business, has always been your wish, why do I not know what I don't like about you? Our family is a town The largest embroidery shop, I dare not say anything else, I still have a bit of eyesight, otherwise I would not have dug up the treasure of Xiu'er. What kind of good thing do you think is yours, and the zodiac? Let me show you The twelve zodiac signs drawn by Xiu'er also let you know the difference."
The proprietress hadn't seen Su Xueyun's painting yet, so she opened it and placed it on the counter. It was obvious that she had great trust in Su Xueyun's skill, which made Su Xueyun smile, and made Li Xiner's expression even uglier.
The proprietress and Li Xiner went to look at the paintings on the counter at the same time. The twelve zodiac signs were painted by Su Xueyun full of classical charm, and the feeling of traditional characteristics rushed to the face, making people stare at them at a glance and reluctant to look away.The majestic tiger in the forest, although it roared with its mouth open and showed its sharp teeth, did not make people feel vicious. Instead, it was full of the power of the king of the forest, making people willing to submit.The steed with a long mane and flying, reveals endless pride, and its sturdy body is full of strength, as if a good horse with a thousand li is waiting for its bole.
There are also other dragons like gods, simple and reliable bulls, cute and lifelike white rabbits, etc., which really show the characteristics of each animal, which makes people feel endless love in their hearts.
The landlady's eyes were shocked, and her face was full of admiration, "Wonderful! It's so wonderful! Xiu'er, you drew this all yourself? Your drawing skills have improved again!"
Su Xueyun nodded with a faint smile, and said modestly: "Sister Fang, don't praise me, I don't care about it, I just like this aspect a little bit."
"Xiu'er, Sister Fang is not lying to you, you were born to eat this bowl of rice! Since the first time you came here, every time you have brought paintings, you have improved, especially this time. This set of twelve zodiac signs You are really my lucky star." The proprietress showed joy, and carefully stacked the patterns one by one, her joy was beyond words, and she wished she could use all the words of praise on Su Xueyun.
"Sister Fang is awesome. Thanks to Sister Fang for letting me study in Xiuzhuang, I have the opportunity to learn so many things. Otherwise, how can a girl in my village have the opportunity to learn these things?" Su Xueyun helped her tidy up the counter, The attitude is humble and does not appear to be indifferent.
A look of jealousy flashed in Li Xiner's eyes, she suddenly became suspicious, she stared at Su Xueyun and questioned, "You still know that you are a village girl? If you have this ability, how could you be so poor before? You didn't draw this by yourself at all, did you? Lady boss, you appreciate her so much, trust her, and slap me in the face because of her, but I can guarantee that my paintings are drawn by myself, can she? Maybe she is looking for a ghostwriter?"
Su Xueyun looked at her leisurely, and smiled faintly, "Li Xin'er, are you stupid? Or are you just pretending to be someone else? Someone drew this painting instead of selling it, and gave it to someone else instead? Would you like it?"
Li Xiner choked, and said angrily, "Don't force your words, how could you, a village girl, draw such a picture?"
Su Xueyun asked back: "What's wrong with the village girl? Aren't you a village girl? Don't you also think that you draw pretty well?"
The proprietress chuckled, looked sideways at Li Xiner and sneered, "Maybe she thinks of herself as a phoenix in the ravine. Let me tell you, it's better to be down-to-earth. Don't aim too high, and don't be jealous, otherwise... , I am the only one who is embarrassed. Alright, I have all the twelve signs of the zodiac here, girl, please recommend yourself to the boss who knows the goods for your masterpiece."
Li Xin'er was so angry that her face turned green and white, and she couldn't help but choked up: "Do you think I can't find it? I'll let you see how popular my paintings are. You have no vision at all. You'll regret it sooner or later!"
Li Xiner turned her head and left. Su Xueyun said behind her: "Although your painting is somewhat interesting, it's just for fun. It's hard to be elegant. Besides, you can't draw a good painting if you don't have a calm mind. Your paintings have no intention, and the expressions of the animals in the paintings are also very stiff, which fits the saying that 'painting a tiger is not an anti-dog', so your paintings can only be regarded as inferior in terms of flowers."
Li Xiner suddenly stopped in her tracks, turned her head and shouted at her: "You don't need to judge, what are you? Are you worthy?"
"It's not a comment, but I just find it a little funny. The so-called 'Handan learning to walk' and 'Dongshi imitation', when you see others making money by selling flowers, you draw a few pictures and sell them impatiently. Have you ever thought that these paintings will be used for making? What? Have you ever thought about what they will be embroidered on? Have you ever thought about the stories of the twelve zodiac signs? If you haven't thought about it, it will only be a joke in the end." Su Xue said calmly He spoke softly, but immediately exposed Li Xiner's petty thoughts, and explained clearly that she imitated herself.
Li Xiner said angrily: "Who is learning to walk in Handan? Don't tell me you are the only one in this world who is allowed to sell flowers?"
Su Xueyun said indifferently: "Then I wish you a good price for selling these pictures, I hope you can meet someone who knows the goods, otherwise you...strangely shaped animals that don't know what the meaning is, probably will be wasted Paper and ink money."
The more she talked, the more confident Li Xiner became.Li Xiner knows that these words are just patterns that children like in modern times. Although they are very novel in ancient times, if the ancients can't accept them and can't find the fun in them, then these paintings are waste paper. They can't be sold.But just now she saw the attitude of the proprietress towards Su Xueyun. Su Xueyun has already been regarded as a guest of honor. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if she couldn't sell a single picture?How could she be inferior to an ancient village girl?
Li Xiner couldn't find a word to refute, so she glared at Su Xueyun, snorted coldly and strode away.She was extremely unwilling, and felt that the proprietress and Su Xueyun were deliberately humiliating her, it must be because Su Xueyun said bad things about her, and that was the proprietress's attitude.She secretly cheered herself up, and went to several other houses with the drawings in her pocket, but often she was kicked out as soon as she took out the paintings, and some even had a bad temper who directly scolded her for wishful thinking and mercilessly Lost a meal.
After doing this a few times, Li Xiner has changed from being proud and confident to being discouraged. When she sees the embroidery village, she dare not go in, for fear of seeing mocking and contemptuous eyes.She dawdled back to the village. She didn't even drink her saliva when she went out for a long time. She was thirsty and hungry, but there was nothing at home. She didn't feel the slightest concern at all, which made her feel sad all of a sudden. , stood in the yard and began to cry.
Liang Cheng came out of the house on crutches, and said impatiently: "Why are you crying? What's wrong with you? You don't know what to do without going home for a day, why don't you hurry up and cook? You want to starve me to death?"
Li Xiner subconsciously wanted to retort, but suddenly thought that she was trying to curry favor with the three brothers of the Liang family. It was just a stepping stone anyway, so why bother to be serious with him?Thinking of this, Li Xiner immediately held back her tears, said yes, and bowed her head into the kitchen.Seeing that she was so obedient, Liang Cheng relaxed his brows a little, and a smile appeared on his face.However, Liang Laosan in the West Room saw this scene through the window, but shook his head, closed the window and concentrated on reading.
When Li Xiner was cooking, she stuffed all the pictures she had drawn with great difficulty into the stove, as if she burned them along with the ridicule and disdain.She has always believed that she is different, and that the current suffering is the driving force for her to move forward. Sooner or later, an outstanding man will rescue her from the sea of suffering. At least she cannot live in such a poor village for the rest of her life.
Li Xiner thought of Su Xueyun's clothes that were several times better than hers, and felt jealous. She swore that she must not live better than Su Xueyun, and let Su Xueyun envy her and envy her.The pattern was not good, so she suffered for two days, and quickly made tofu, soy milk, tofu curd, bean sprouts, tofu skin, dried tofu and so on. When there were more kinds, she asked Mr. Liang to accompany her Things are sold in the town, and the location is at the location where Widow Liu had set up a stall before, which is diagonally across from Su's house.
Her grandfather in her previous life sold tofu, so she is really good at making these things, especially tofu curd and dried tofu have a unique flavor and taste very good.And she is really shameless, feeling that Su Xueyun has wronged her, she will let Su Xueyun not agree with that tone, as long as the Su family sells the staple food, she will immediately sell soy milk, bean curd, and dried tofu, which are side dishes The staple food is very good. There are really many people who are willing to stop by and buy a copy. Anyway, the location is so close, and the price is only one or two copper coins.
Mrs. Liu was so angry that the smile on her face disappeared. Seeing Su Xueyun was very helpless, she persuaded in a low voice: "Mother, what do you care about her? Anyway, she didn't affect our business."
Mrs. Liu snorted, "I just can't stand her smug look. Does your sister always look at you when she sees her? She's just here to annoy you on purpose. She's really rotten."
Su Xueyun smiled and said: "She can do something like this, mother, if you are really angry, we will not sell steamed buns and pancakes from tomorrow onwards, only sell bacon and marinated meat, these are not delicious with tofu. "
Mrs. Liu laughed, "That's good. We'll start selling lo-mei after we sell them out, and we'll sell them after the store opens in two days."
After the two of them had such a discussion, Mrs. Liu was no longer angry, and she expected that after she changed the things she wanted to sell, Li Xin'er would no longer be able to take advantage of her own family. Her mood improved all of a sudden. Enthusiasm.
On this day, the Su family still sold out quickly, and Li Xiner sold out on the first day, she didn't prepare much, and she sold out at the same time as the Su family, and made a total of [-] yuan, which was much more than what Boss Liang earned in a hard day. .Li Xin'er told Boss Liang to pack up her things, walked to the Su's booth with a smile, and said, "Thank you so much for today. I didn't expect the business here to be so good. It seems that we will do more tomorrow."
Su Xueyun said with a smile: "Actually, what's the point of working so hard? Draw two more flower patterns to set up a stall here for a few days. By the way, you've already found someone who knows the goods, right?"
The smug smile on Li Xin'er's face hadn't faded yet. Thinking of those patterns that were burned that day, her expression twisted instantly, looking rather ferocious.She gritted her teeth and said, "That kind of thing is too troublesome. How can it be as easy as making tofu? Besides, if you really want to make money like that, why are you still selling here?"
Su Xueyun smiled, "I can't help it, I wanted my parents to enjoy life at home a long time ago, but they insisted on earning more money to buy flowers for me, so of course I want to be with my parents, after all, there are such good parents But you should cherish the blessings that others can't cultivate."
Li Xiner's face darkened. She never had good parents in her two lifetimes, and she never experienced the love of her parents. Seeing the happy expression on Su Xueyun's face right now, she really hates her!She snorted softly, and said mockingly: "You really have to cherish it, you won't be able to get married anyway, so you have to curry favor with your parents? Otherwise, what if you have a sister-in-law and get kicked out? Tsk tsk tsk."
Liu stared at her and shouted, "How did you talk?"
Su Xueyun grabbed Mrs. Liu and said with a smile: "Mother, why are you angry? Some people think that a woman can't live without being married, and once married, she will marry three men. We can't insist that they are wrong, can we? After all, these days It's all about living by yourself, and it has nothing to do with other people if you live well, wouldn't you become a gossip if you talk about other people's affairs?" She smiled at Li Xin'er, "Can I marry you?" You don't need to worry about going out, after all, I can't marry someone as a wife, and we don't have much to talk about. Fortunately, I still have some talent in embroidery, so it's not difficult to support myself."
"Who do you say is a tongue-twisting person?" Li Xiner glared at Su Xueyun fiercely.
Su Xueyun smiled faintly, "I said that kind of crazy woman who likes to stare at other people's lives, are you?"
"You!" Li Xin'er was so angry that her chest heaved, but she didn't know what to reply. Being surrounded by so many people, she was completely humiliated.
Boss Liang packed up his things and came over to pull her, "Let's go, don't make a fool of yourself outside."
Li Xiner fell back angrily, "I was bullied, don't you know how to help me?"
"You don't know how to be grateful today because you rely on other people to make money? Did you say you were wrong? Stop talking and go home!" Boss Liang scolded with a frown, nodded to Su Xueyun and the others, and pulled Li Xiner Get out of the crowd quickly.
Seeing that Li Xin'er had left, people originally wanted to go to Mrs. Liu to ask about their co-wives, but when they thought about what Su Xueyun said just now, talking about other people's affairs is a crazy woman who chews her tongue, they immediately felt embarrassed to speak up, and all Let go.
Liu said with a smile: "Xiu'er is getting more and more capable now, even her parents can't get in her mouth."
Su Xueyun took her arm and said with a smile: "How can parents get involved in such a small matter? Besides, she is your junior, so you can tell her that others may think that you are bullying the junior. Anyway, she is targeting me , I will never let her bully me."
Su Dapeng sighed, "The Liang family is really defeated. They don't have a backbone at all. They rely on a woman to make money and put all the responsibility on the woman. They don't take care of anything. It's far worse than their grandfather."
"Hmph, didn't their family lose a long time ago? Their father owed so many debts, and their mother couldn't bear the blow and fell ill. Since then, they have been defeated." Liu's hatred of Liang's family is utterly disgusting. Yes, because of Liang Cheng, the relationship between her and her daughter was once very bad. If it wasn't for what happened later, her daughter might have been abducted by Liang Cheng long ago. To Liang Cheng's two brothers who don't know right from wrong, she I don't like it either.
Su Xueyun smiled and said: "Don't bother with them, anyway, our shop has already been finished, and they will move to the shop in two days, so they can't go to the door of the shop to set up a stall."
Liu smiled casually, "If they dare to go, I will dare to break their legs."
"You old woman is getting more and more powerful, can you beat me casually?" Su Dapeng joked after tying everything to the small wooden cart.
Liu said with a smile: "If you don't fight, can't you talk about it?"
The three of them went home talking and laughing, not being affected by Li Xiner at all.After arriving home, Mrs. Liu went to count the money and keep accounts, Su Xueyun prepared the bacon and braised meat to be sold the next day, and Su Dapeng went for a walk in the village with a pipe and pot.Their family now eats meat every day, and the smell wafts to the neighbors so that everyone knows it. Whenever he walks around the village, people come forward to talk. Although he doesn't like to talk very much, he is willing to build a good relationship with everyone in this way. .He can't rely on his daughter for everything, and he also wants to help the family do more things in his own way.
Li Xiner also wanted to eat meat, especially since she earned a hundred coins in one day, so what if she bought some meat?That's how the Su family started.But Boss Liang was unwilling to say anything, so he put away the one hundred coins, saying that he wanted to heal Liang Cheng's legs and buy paper and ink for Liang Lao San's health. , so not a single penny should be spent indiscriminately.Li Xin'er was so angry that she had worked so hard to earn money, but in the end she couldn't eat a bite of meat, and if she wanted to give the money to Su Xueyun, wouldn't her flaunting her power in the daytime become a joke?But she didn't want to be betrayed by the Liang family, so she could only pretend to be considerate and caring, and obediently agreed to Boss Liang's words, and her resentment grew day by day.
On the second day, the Su family stopped selling any staple food. They only sold bacon, stewed chicken, and eggs with a strong taste. The guests had tasted it before and wanted to buy it for a long time. When they saw that the Su family started selling it, they immediately snapped it up. Similarly, the small wooden cart was full of things in less than half an hour.Everyone is busy grabbing more, who has the heart to buy Li Xiner's bean products?Even if she hoarse her voice, she didn't pull a few guests over.
The most tragic thing is that Li Xiner made the same mistake as Widow Liu. She sold it on the first day and tasted the sweetness, but then doubled it on the second day.This is good, soy products are easy to spoil, she has made so much and can't sell it, so she will be sour!
Li Xin'er was so anxious that she kept cursing, saying that it must be Su Xueyun's idea to harm her on purpose.Boss Liang glanced at Su Xueyun, then at the bustling scene in front of the Su's booth, and closed his eyes weakly.It felt like a wrong step. If they had sold that wild boar back then, and worked hard to propose marriage to Su Xueyun, the rich family would be their Liang family now.But he exchanged a wild boar for Li Xin'er, the co-wife, making the family run wild and getting more and more unlucky. Well, it's getting farther and farther away from them.
After all, Boss Liang still wanted to save face, so he stopped Li Xin'er and told her not to talk too much, and concentrate on selling her own things, and don't go to the Su family to make her unhappy.Li Xin'er was not reconciled, but when she thought of the disastrous defeat with Su Xueyun several times, she felt a little apprehensive, so she stopped looking at the Su family and continued to sell.
After that, Li Xiner didn't dare to do so much anymore, and the sales were really not very good. She could only earn twenty or thirty coins a day. Not to mention that the business was getting better and better, even the one hundred coins she sold at the beginning couldn't compare. superior.After deducting the cost of two manpower and beans, the earning is even less.
At this time, the shops of the Su family were all ready.On this day, Li Xin'er went to the town to set up a stall as usual, but after waiting for a long time, she didn't see the Su family coming. Even the stall of the Su family was taken by someone else.She asked someone to inquire, and only then did she find out that Suji Snack Shop had opened!She looked at her stall with pitifully few customers, and compared it to the Su family who opened a shop after only a short period of business. She felt unbalanced, and couldn't figure out how a modern college student could not compare to an ancient ignorant village girl.She was afraid that Boss Liang wouldn't let her go, so she found an excuse to sneak away to Suji Snack Shop while Boss Liang was not paying attention.
Su Ji's location is not a good location but it's not a bad location either. It's very suitable for them who are famous for their snacks.The so-called smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. They neither went to places where the rent was too expensive, nor asked them to really go to a certain alley, so they had a good grasp of their own positioning.
Su Baizhu invited people to set off firecrackers and perform a lion dance at the entrance. There were many old and new customers watching at the entrance, and the scene was extremely lively.And there was a pot of stewed soup cooking by the door of the shop, and the mellow and attractive smell wafted out of the nostrils, making everyone want to rush in and buy it.Su Xueyun and Su Baizhu had whetted everyone's appetites, making the whole street aware of the opening before inviting them to go shopping.Seeing those people scrambling to grab it, those who didn't know it thought they were buying new year's goods.
Su Xueyun and the others were so busy that one person acted as a messenger for two, and they didn't even have a chance to speak, but the smile on their faces never faded, and it could be seen that they were happy from the inside out.
Li Xiner looked at this scene in a daze, and couldn't believe that the Su family's business would be so booming.There are so many things, so much meat, she never knew that there are so many rich people in the town, isn't this much more expensive than buying meat by herself!Looking at the smile on Su Xueyun's face, she always felt that it was a mockery of her, how naive she was before, and she ran to mock the Su family.
Looking at it any further, she was making herself guilty, Li Xiner gritted her teeth and pushed her way out of the crowd.She looked back at Su Ji, with a weird smile on her face, and then walked to the place where beggars often go.
Li Xiner's way to get revenge is very simple. Aren't those time-traveling stories that people will miss whenever they have a good recipe?Now that Su Ji's stuff is so good, naturally it should be remembered. No matter whether Su Ji can be brought down in the end, it's good to disgust them once.
Li Xin'er bought a few beggars with a few copper coins she had hidden, and asked them to go to various restaurants to yell that Su Ji had a secret recipe handed down from their ancestors.There are only three restaurants in the town, and there are also smaller restaurants and taverns. It is always a bit of a foundation to be able to do so for so long. She doesn't believe that none of them are thinking about the "ancestral secret recipe"!
I have to say that Li Xiner's method is really useful.No restaurant would think that there are too many special dishes in their own house. They searched for food recipes from all over the world, just to make their restaurant more unique.Some of this kind of "searching" are normal transactions, and some are scheming or robbery, it all depends on the character of the person in charge of the restaurant.
Among the three restaurants in the town, Yunlailou is the first one, which is named after the guest like Yunlai, and the name is indeed correct. The customers of this restaurant are really like the guest, and the business is very good.The restaurant ranked second is called Wangjiang Tower, which is located on the riverside and has a row of seats overlooking the river, which is unique and elegant.These two restaurants have been open in the town for decades, and they are considered time-honored brands in the town.
At the bottom of the list is a rising star, called Zhaocailou, which doesn't look like a restaurant, but it has become the current climate in just five years, and the boss is also a character not to be underestimated.It is said that this Zhaocai building is famous for its special dishes. There are many dishes in the building that are not available in the local area, and many customers are famous to go to the building to taste.
After Li Xiner asked the little beggar to yell out the secret recipe handed down from her family, the waiter from Zhaocai Building approached Su Baizhu who was helping in Suji, glanced up, looked down on others, and said bluntly: "The food in your shop is good, Our boss has taken a fancy to it, and I will give you two taels of silver to bring the recipe."
Su Baizhu frowned, "My family doesn't sell prescriptions, please go back."
Xiao Er then set his sights on him, looked him up and down, and laughed like he was looking at an idiot: "Not for sale? Do you know who our boss is? We are Zhaocailou! What the boss likes about you is You don't want to sell your luck? Hehe, why don't you give it a try?"
"I only know that the affairs of this town are under the management of the magistrate of the county, but not under the management of Zhaocai Building. No matter where it is, there is no reason to force people to sell things. You go, we won't sell things." This kind of thing can't be done. Withdrawing, Su Baizhu's attitude was very clear, and there was no room for negotiation.
Xiaoer was so angry that he left behind a "wait and see" and flung his sleeves away.
Su Xueyun lifted the curtain and came out, and said, "Brother, Zhaocailou has taken a fancy to our recipe?"
"It's not unusual. Don't be afraid. I'll ask someone first to find out whether it's serious or not. There are more than one restaurant in the town. Yunlaitou and Wangjianglou are more established than Zhaocailou. Selling, there are other ways." Su Baizhu comforted Su Xueyun, not wanting his sister to worry about this matter.
Su Xueyun nodded and said: "Brother, you are right, Zhaocailou is still weaker than the other two, just now I saw that person's temper was a bit anxious, I am afraid that Zhaocailou will make more moves, why don't I go to Yunlailou and Wangwang Take a look at Jianglou."
Su Baizhu said: "I'll just go, you're a girl and it's not easy to show your face."
Su Xueyun smiled and said, "How about I disguise myself as a man? I don't want to marry anyway."
"You! That's fine, you can go if you want, and don't dress up as a man. Everyone knows that our family has a daughter, and a handsome young man suddenly appears. Maybe he will be regarded as a son-in-law." Su Baizhu often listened to her If you don't want to marry, you can make fun of her now.
Su Xueyun clenched her right fist and slammed it on the palm of her left hand, and said with bright eyes, "That's okay too! Anyway, it's enough to fool those outsiders."
Su Baizhu lost his temper after being tortured by this younger sister, so he simply turned around and left, going to the restaurant to talk about things, he had to be prepared.
Su Xueyun smiled, and also made some preparations, but first she packed a little of every delicious food at home, and personally sent it to the Qiu family's mansion, which was the Qiu family where the grandparents and grandchildren who bought the corn pancakes first lived.
The porter saw a girl carrying a basket, and was a little puzzled, "Who is the girl?"
Su Xueyun smiled and said: "Master Qiu and Young Master Qiu asked me to bring something, saying that it was for the young master to change his taste, you see."
No one in the entire Qiu manor knew about the young master's poor appetite. Seeing all kinds of delicious snacks in Su Xueyun's basket, his eyes immediately brightened.The boy felt that his saliva was about to flow out. This must have been given to the young master, and his attitude immediately improved a lot, "Wait a minute, girl, I will report to the master right now."
"I'm tired."
It didn't take long for the boy to report to the master, and Su Xueyun was invited in after standing there for a while.The servant took Su Xueyun to the garden, and Su Xueyun saw Old Man Qiu sitting in the gazebo drinking tea from a distance, while Young Master Qiu was feeding fish and playing with water by the pond.
Su Xueyun walked to the gazebo, saluted the old man with a smile, and said with a smile: "Master Qiu is well, thanks to Master Qiu and the young master for taking care of the family's business, it gave us a good start, now I have thought about it a little bit more." This kind of food is specially sent to Master Qiu and the young master to taste, please don't be disgusted with it."
Only then did Master Qiu look up at her with a smile in his eyes, "Okay, come and sit."
Su Xueyun handed over the basket to the servants, and naturally sat opposite Master Qiu, glanced at Young Master Qiu, and asked, "Your Master, is your appetite better?"
"It's rare that you still remember. It's a pity that he still doesn't like to eat, especially meat. I'm afraid he won't like the food you sent today, but thank you for your kindness." Mr. Qiu has great respect for those who care about his grandson. Well-meaning, talking like chatting, and not putting on a superior posture.
Young Master Qiu heard them talking, ran over curiously, saw Su Xueyun smiled and said, "Huh? You are that cornbread sister!"
Su Xueyun was stunned for a moment, raised the corners of her mouth, and said dumbfoundedly: "Young master, what I brought you today is corned egg, so don't you want to call me elder sister corned egg?"
"Then I don't know what your name is. Of course I can only call you this. Don't you always call me 'little son'? My name is Qiu Heng. What's your name?" Qiu Heng sat down at the table with great interest. , as if asking to understand.
Su Xueyun said with a smile: "Young master Heng, my name is Su Xiu'er, you still remember cornbread, is it because you like eating it?"
Qiu Heng nodded and said: "It's delicious, but I can't get used to it every time I eat it, and it's delicious when it's hot. Every time someone buys it, it's cold, and the home-made ones are not delicious, and grandpa won't let me eat it." go out."
Qiu Heng looked at Master Qiu unhappily. Master Qiu shook his head and laughed, "Isn't it because you are sick that you are not allowed to go out? How can you go out to play when you are sick? Now that you are well, you can go out naturally."
Only then did Qiu Heng smile, and said to Su Xueyun: "Then I'll go to your stall again, and you remember to leave me two hot tortillas."
Su Xueyun agreed without thinking, "That's no problem, because now we don't set up a stall anymore, we have opened a snack shop, selling all kinds of delicious food, the corn cakes are all freshly made, Mr. Heng arrived Then you will know."
Qiu Heng became more interested, "Is there a shop? Well, I will definitely go to see it. There must be more things in the shop than in the stalls. I don't know what is delicious. By the way, what is it that smells so delicious just now? Is that what you sold?"
"Yes, I think the taste is very good, why don't you try it, Young Master Heng?"
Qiu Heng touched his stomach, nodded and said, "I'm a little hungry after smelling the aroma, take it here and taste it."
Qiu Heng took a small mouthful first, and then took another big mouthful, and then he showed a happy expression, and started to eat happily.
Mr. Qiu was a little surprised, but also a little funny, shook his head and said, "It's like this, children, the food outside is always better than the food at home." He stroked Qiu Heng's hair, his eyes were full of kindness, and said, "Girl, You don’t want to go to the Three Treasures Hall today, right? But what happened to you when you opened the shop?”
Su Xueyun said with a smile: "You can't hide anything from Mr. Qiu. I came here today to ask for something."
The proprietress smiled with satisfaction: "You are always so polite, just call me Sister Fang. Come on, sit and drink some tea first, and let me see how the flowers look."
Su Xueyun sat down at the small wooden table as she said, glanced at Li Xiner, and asked with a smile: "Sister Fang, do you have guests here? Don't greet me, it's not my first time here."
The proprietress looked at Li Xiner, and suddenly thought that what Li Xiner said just now was from Yunshui Village, isn't that Su Xueyun's fellow villager?Then he glanced at Su Xueyun with some hesitation, and said tentatively: "This girl has a few flower patterns, let's see if it suits, but I think the pattern is a bit weird, I don't know if it is good or not, why don't Xiu'er help me?" palm eye?"
Su Xueyun knew that it was because the proprietress valued her, and she was afraid that she would offend someone she knew unintentionally, and make her have some bad thoughts.Normally, Su Xueyun would of course say that she had nothing to do with it, but she glanced at Li Xiner's embarrassed face, slightly raised the corners of her mouth, and said with a smile: "Since Sister Fang trusts me, I'll ask you to help me take a look."
The proprietress saw that something was coming, she enthusiastically dragged Su Xueyun to the counter and showed her some paintings on the counter.
Li Xin'er's face was flushed, she grabbed her own painting, and said forcefully: "No need, I know whether my flowers look good or not. Since I don't know the goods here, I'll go to another place."
The proprietress's complexion suddenly turned ugly, she twitched her mouth, and said sarcastically: "This business, business, has always been your wish, why do I not know what I don't like about you? Our family is a town The largest embroidery shop, I dare not say anything else, I still have a bit of eyesight, otherwise I would not have dug up the treasure of Xiu'er. What kind of good thing do you think is yours, and the zodiac? Let me show you The twelve zodiac signs drawn by Xiu'er also let you know the difference."
The proprietress hadn't seen Su Xueyun's painting yet, so she opened it and placed it on the counter. It was obvious that she had great trust in Su Xueyun's skill, which made Su Xueyun smile, and made Li Xiner's expression even uglier.
The proprietress and Li Xiner went to look at the paintings on the counter at the same time. The twelve zodiac signs were painted by Su Xueyun full of classical charm, and the feeling of traditional characteristics rushed to the face, making people stare at them at a glance and reluctant to look away.The majestic tiger in the forest, although it roared with its mouth open and showed its sharp teeth, did not make people feel vicious. Instead, it was full of the power of the king of the forest, making people willing to submit.The steed with a long mane and flying, reveals endless pride, and its sturdy body is full of strength, as if a good horse with a thousand li is waiting for its bole.
There are also other dragons like gods, simple and reliable bulls, cute and lifelike white rabbits, etc., which really show the characteristics of each animal, which makes people feel endless love in their hearts.
The landlady's eyes were shocked, and her face was full of admiration, "Wonderful! It's so wonderful! Xiu'er, you drew this all yourself? Your drawing skills have improved again!"
Su Xueyun nodded with a faint smile, and said modestly: "Sister Fang, don't praise me, I don't care about it, I just like this aspect a little bit."
"Xiu'er, Sister Fang is not lying to you, you were born to eat this bowl of rice! Since the first time you came here, every time you have brought paintings, you have improved, especially this time. This set of twelve zodiac signs You are really my lucky star." The proprietress showed joy, and carefully stacked the patterns one by one, her joy was beyond words, and she wished she could use all the words of praise on Su Xueyun.
"Sister Fang is awesome. Thanks to Sister Fang for letting me study in Xiuzhuang, I have the opportunity to learn so many things. Otherwise, how can a girl in my village have the opportunity to learn these things?" Su Xueyun helped her tidy up the counter, The attitude is humble and does not appear to be indifferent.
A look of jealousy flashed in Li Xiner's eyes, she suddenly became suspicious, she stared at Su Xueyun and questioned, "You still know that you are a village girl? If you have this ability, how could you be so poor before? You didn't draw this by yourself at all, did you? Lady boss, you appreciate her so much, trust her, and slap me in the face because of her, but I can guarantee that my paintings are drawn by myself, can she? Maybe she is looking for a ghostwriter?"
Su Xueyun looked at her leisurely, and smiled faintly, "Li Xin'er, are you stupid? Or are you just pretending to be someone else? Someone drew this painting instead of selling it, and gave it to someone else instead? Would you like it?"
Li Xiner choked, and said angrily, "Don't force your words, how could you, a village girl, draw such a picture?"
Su Xueyun asked back: "What's wrong with the village girl? Aren't you a village girl? Don't you also think that you draw pretty well?"
The proprietress chuckled, looked sideways at Li Xiner and sneered, "Maybe she thinks of herself as a phoenix in the ravine. Let me tell you, it's better to be down-to-earth. Don't aim too high, and don't be jealous, otherwise... , I am the only one who is embarrassed. Alright, I have all the twelve signs of the zodiac here, girl, please recommend yourself to the boss who knows the goods for your masterpiece."
Li Xin'er was so angry that her face turned green and white, and she couldn't help but choked up: "Do you think I can't find it? I'll let you see how popular my paintings are. You have no vision at all. You'll regret it sooner or later!"
Li Xiner turned her head and left. Su Xueyun said behind her: "Although your painting is somewhat interesting, it's just for fun. It's hard to be elegant. Besides, you can't draw a good painting if you don't have a calm mind. Your paintings have no intention, and the expressions of the animals in the paintings are also very stiff, which fits the saying that 'painting a tiger is not an anti-dog', so your paintings can only be regarded as inferior in terms of flowers."
Li Xiner suddenly stopped in her tracks, turned her head and shouted at her: "You don't need to judge, what are you? Are you worthy?"
"It's not a comment, but I just find it a little funny. The so-called 'Handan learning to walk' and 'Dongshi imitation', when you see others making money by selling flowers, you draw a few pictures and sell them impatiently. Have you ever thought that these paintings will be used for making? What? Have you ever thought about what they will be embroidered on? Have you ever thought about the stories of the twelve zodiac signs? If you haven't thought about it, it will only be a joke in the end." Su Xue said calmly He spoke softly, but immediately exposed Li Xiner's petty thoughts, and explained clearly that she imitated herself.
Li Xiner said angrily: "Who is learning to walk in Handan? Don't tell me you are the only one in this world who is allowed to sell flowers?"
Su Xueyun said indifferently: "Then I wish you a good price for selling these pictures, I hope you can meet someone who knows the goods, otherwise you...strangely shaped animals that don't know what the meaning is, probably will be wasted Paper and ink money."
The more she talked, the more confident Li Xiner became.Li Xiner knows that these words are just patterns that children like in modern times. Although they are very novel in ancient times, if the ancients can't accept them and can't find the fun in them, then these paintings are waste paper. They can't be sold.But just now she saw the attitude of the proprietress towards Su Xueyun. Su Xueyun has already been regarded as a guest of honor. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if she couldn't sell a single picture?How could she be inferior to an ancient village girl?
Li Xiner couldn't find a word to refute, so she glared at Su Xueyun, snorted coldly and strode away.She was extremely unwilling, and felt that the proprietress and Su Xueyun were deliberately humiliating her, it must be because Su Xueyun said bad things about her, and that was the proprietress's attitude.She secretly cheered herself up, and went to several other houses with the drawings in her pocket, but often she was kicked out as soon as she took out the paintings, and some even had a bad temper who directly scolded her for wishful thinking and mercilessly Lost a meal.
After doing this a few times, Li Xiner has changed from being proud and confident to being discouraged. When she sees the embroidery village, she dare not go in, for fear of seeing mocking and contemptuous eyes.She dawdled back to the village. She didn't even drink her saliva when she went out for a long time. She was thirsty and hungry, but there was nothing at home. She didn't feel the slightest concern at all, which made her feel sad all of a sudden. , stood in the yard and began to cry.
Liang Cheng came out of the house on crutches, and said impatiently: "Why are you crying? What's wrong with you? You don't know what to do without going home for a day, why don't you hurry up and cook? You want to starve me to death?"
Li Xiner subconsciously wanted to retort, but suddenly thought that she was trying to curry favor with the three brothers of the Liang family. It was just a stepping stone anyway, so why bother to be serious with him?Thinking of this, Li Xiner immediately held back her tears, said yes, and bowed her head into the kitchen.Seeing that she was so obedient, Liang Cheng relaxed his brows a little, and a smile appeared on his face.However, Liang Laosan in the West Room saw this scene through the window, but shook his head, closed the window and concentrated on reading.
When Li Xiner was cooking, she stuffed all the pictures she had drawn with great difficulty into the stove, as if she burned them along with the ridicule and disdain.She has always believed that she is different, and that the current suffering is the driving force for her to move forward. Sooner or later, an outstanding man will rescue her from the sea of suffering. At least she cannot live in such a poor village for the rest of her life.
Li Xiner thought of Su Xueyun's clothes that were several times better than hers, and felt jealous. She swore that she must not live better than Su Xueyun, and let Su Xueyun envy her and envy her.The pattern was not good, so she suffered for two days, and quickly made tofu, soy milk, tofu curd, bean sprouts, tofu skin, dried tofu and so on. When there were more kinds, she asked Mr. Liang to accompany her Things are sold in the town, and the location is at the location where Widow Liu had set up a stall before, which is diagonally across from Su's house.
Her grandfather in her previous life sold tofu, so she is really good at making these things, especially tofu curd and dried tofu have a unique flavor and taste very good.And she is really shameless, feeling that Su Xueyun has wronged her, she will let Su Xueyun not agree with that tone, as long as the Su family sells the staple food, she will immediately sell soy milk, bean curd, and dried tofu, which are side dishes The staple food is very good. There are really many people who are willing to stop by and buy a copy. Anyway, the location is so close, and the price is only one or two copper coins.
Mrs. Liu was so angry that the smile on her face disappeared. Seeing Su Xueyun was very helpless, she persuaded in a low voice: "Mother, what do you care about her? Anyway, she didn't affect our business."
Mrs. Liu snorted, "I just can't stand her smug look. Does your sister always look at you when she sees her? She's just here to annoy you on purpose. She's really rotten."
Su Xueyun smiled and said: "She can do something like this, mother, if you are really angry, we will not sell steamed buns and pancakes from tomorrow onwards, only sell bacon and marinated meat, these are not delicious with tofu. "
Mrs. Liu laughed, "That's good. We'll start selling lo-mei after we sell them out, and we'll sell them after the store opens in two days."
After the two of them had such a discussion, Mrs. Liu was no longer angry, and she expected that after she changed the things she wanted to sell, Li Xin'er would no longer be able to take advantage of her own family. Her mood improved all of a sudden. Enthusiasm.
On this day, the Su family still sold out quickly, and Li Xiner sold out on the first day, she didn't prepare much, and she sold out at the same time as the Su family, and made a total of [-] yuan, which was much more than what Boss Liang earned in a hard day. .Li Xin'er told Boss Liang to pack up her things, walked to the Su's booth with a smile, and said, "Thank you so much for today. I didn't expect the business here to be so good. It seems that we will do more tomorrow."
Su Xueyun said with a smile: "Actually, what's the point of working so hard? Draw two more flower patterns to set up a stall here for a few days. By the way, you've already found someone who knows the goods, right?"
The smug smile on Li Xin'er's face hadn't faded yet. Thinking of those patterns that were burned that day, her expression twisted instantly, looking rather ferocious.She gritted her teeth and said, "That kind of thing is too troublesome. How can it be as easy as making tofu? Besides, if you really want to make money like that, why are you still selling here?"
Su Xueyun smiled, "I can't help it, I wanted my parents to enjoy life at home a long time ago, but they insisted on earning more money to buy flowers for me, so of course I want to be with my parents, after all, there are such good parents But you should cherish the blessings that others can't cultivate."
Li Xiner's face darkened. She never had good parents in her two lifetimes, and she never experienced the love of her parents. Seeing the happy expression on Su Xueyun's face right now, she really hates her!She snorted softly, and said mockingly: "You really have to cherish it, you won't be able to get married anyway, so you have to curry favor with your parents? Otherwise, what if you have a sister-in-law and get kicked out? Tsk tsk tsk."
Liu stared at her and shouted, "How did you talk?"
Su Xueyun grabbed Mrs. Liu and said with a smile: "Mother, why are you angry? Some people think that a woman can't live without being married, and once married, she will marry three men. We can't insist that they are wrong, can we? After all, these days It's all about living by yourself, and it has nothing to do with other people if you live well, wouldn't you become a gossip if you talk about other people's affairs?" She smiled at Li Xin'er, "Can I marry you?" You don't need to worry about going out, after all, I can't marry someone as a wife, and we don't have much to talk about. Fortunately, I still have some talent in embroidery, so it's not difficult to support myself."
"Who do you say is a tongue-twisting person?" Li Xiner glared at Su Xueyun fiercely.
Su Xueyun smiled faintly, "I said that kind of crazy woman who likes to stare at other people's lives, are you?"
"You!" Li Xin'er was so angry that her chest heaved, but she didn't know what to reply. Being surrounded by so many people, she was completely humiliated.
Boss Liang packed up his things and came over to pull her, "Let's go, don't make a fool of yourself outside."
Li Xiner fell back angrily, "I was bullied, don't you know how to help me?"
"You don't know how to be grateful today because you rely on other people to make money? Did you say you were wrong? Stop talking and go home!" Boss Liang scolded with a frown, nodded to Su Xueyun and the others, and pulled Li Xiner Get out of the crowd quickly.
Seeing that Li Xin'er had left, people originally wanted to go to Mrs. Liu to ask about their co-wives, but when they thought about what Su Xueyun said just now, talking about other people's affairs is a crazy woman who chews her tongue, they immediately felt embarrassed to speak up, and all Let go.
Liu said with a smile: "Xiu'er is getting more and more capable now, even her parents can't get in her mouth."
Su Xueyun took her arm and said with a smile: "How can parents get involved in such a small matter? Besides, she is your junior, so you can tell her that others may think that you are bullying the junior. Anyway, she is targeting me , I will never let her bully me."
Su Dapeng sighed, "The Liang family is really defeated. They don't have a backbone at all. They rely on a woman to make money and put all the responsibility on the woman. They don't take care of anything. It's far worse than their grandfather."
"Hmph, didn't their family lose a long time ago? Their father owed so many debts, and their mother couldn't bear the blow and fell ill. Since then, they have been defeated." Liu's hatred of Liang's family is utterly disgusting. Yes, because of Liang Cheng, the relationship between her and her daughter was once very bad. If it wasn't for what happened later, her daughter might have been abducted by Liang Cheng long ago. To Liang Cheng's two brothers who don't know right from wrong, she I don't like it either.
Su Xueyun smiled and said: "Don't bother with them, anyway, our shop has already been finished, and they will move to the shop in two days, so they can't go to the door of the shop to set up a stall."
Liu smiled casually, "If they dare to go, I will dare to break their legs."
"You old woman is getting more and more powerful, can you beat me casually?" Su Dapeng joked after tying everything to the small wooden cart.
Liu said with a smile: "If you don't fight, can't you talk about it?"
The three of them went home talking and laughing, not being affected by Li Xiner at all.After arriving home, Mrs. Liu went to count the money and keep accounts, Su Xueyun prepared the bacon and braised meat to be sold the next day, and Su Dapeng went for a walk in the village with a pipe and pot.Their family now eats meat every day, and the smell wafts to the neighbors so that everyone knows it. Whenever he walks around the village, people come forward to talk. Although he doesn't like to talk very much, he is willing to build a good relationship with everyone in this way. .He can't rely on his daughter for everything, and he also wants to help the family do more things in his own way.
Li Xiner also wanted to eat meat, especially since she earned a hundred coins in one day, so what if she bought some meat?That's how the Su family started.But Boss Liang was unwilling to say anything, so he put away the one hundred coins, saying that he wanted to heal Liang Cheng's legs and buy paper and ink for Liang Lao San's health. , so not a single penny should be spent indiscriminately.Li Xin'er was so angry that she had worked so hard to earn money, but in the end she couldn't eat a bite of meat, and if she wanted to give the money to Su Xueyun, wouldn't her flaunting her power in the daytime become a joke?But she didn't want to be betrayed by the Liang family, so she could only pretend to be considerate and caring, and obediently agreed to Boss Liang's words, and her resentment grew day by day.
On the second day, the Su family stopped selling any staple food. They only sold bacon, stewed chicken, and eggs with a strong taste. The guests had tasted it before and wanted to buy it for a long time. When they saw that the Su family started selling it, they immediately snapped it up. Similarly, the small wooden cart was full of things in less than half an hour.Everyone is busy grabbing more, who has the heart to buy Li Xiner's bean products?Even if she hoarse her voice, she didn't pull a few guests over.
The most tragic thing is that Li Xiner made the same mistake as Widow Liu. She sold it on the first day and tasted the sweetness, but then doubled it on the second day.This is good, soy products are easy to spoil, she has made so much and can't sell it, so she will be sour!
Li Xin'er was so anxious that she kept cursing, saying that it must be Su Xueyun's idea to harm her on purpose.Boss Liang glanced at Su Xueyun, then at the bustling scene in front of the Su's booth, and closed his eyes weakly.It felt like a wrong step. If they had sold that wild boar back then, and worked hard to propose marriage to Su Xueyun, the rich family would be their Liang family now.But he exchanged a wild boar for Li Xin'er, the co-wife, making the family run wild and getting more and more unlucky. Well, it's getting farther and farther away from them.
After all, Boss Liang still wanted to save face, so he stopped Li Xin'er and told her not to talk too much, and concentrate on selling her own things, and don't go to the Su family to make her unhappy.Li Xin'er was not reconciled, but when she thought of the disastrous defeat with Su Xueyun several times, she felt a little apprehensive, so she stopped looking at the Su family and continued to sell.
After that, Li Xiner didn't dare to do so much anymore, and the sales were really not very good. She could only earn twenty or thirty coins a day. Not to mention that the business was getting better and better, even the one hundred coins she sold at the beginning couldn't compare. superior.After deducting the cost of two manpower and beans, the earning is even less.
At this time, the shops of the Su family were all ready.On this day, Li Xin'er went to the town to set up a stall as usual, but after waiting for a long time, she didn't see the Su family coming. Even the stall of the Su family was taken by someone else.She asked someone to inquire, and only then did she find out that Suji Snack Shop had opened!She looked at her stall with pitifully few customers, and compared it to the Su family who opened a shop after only a short period of business. She felt unbalanced, and couldn't figure out how a modern college student could not compare to an ancient ignorant village girl.She was afraid that Boss Liang wouldn't let her go, so she found an excuse to sneak away to Suji Snack Shop while Boss Liang was not paying attention.
Su Ji's location is not a good location but it's not a bad location either. It's very suitable for them who are famous for their snacks.The so-called smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. They neither went to places where the rent was too expensive, nor asked them to really go to a certain alley, so they had a good grasp of their own positioning.
Su Baizhu invited people to set off firecrackers and perform a lion dance at the entrance. There were many old and new customers watching at the entrance, and the scene was extremely lively.And there was a pot of stewed soup cooking by the door of the shop, and the mellow and attractive smell wafted out of the nostrils, making everyone want to rush in and buy it.Su Xueyun and Su Baizhu had whetted everyone's appetites, making the whole street aware of the opening before inviting them to go shopping.Seeing those people scrambling to grab it, those who didn't know it thought they were buying new year's goods.
Su Xueyun and the others were so busy that one person acted as a messenger for two, and they didn't even have a chance to speak, but the smile on their faces never faded, and it could be seen that they were happy from the inside out.
Li Xiner looked at this scene in a daze, and couldn't believe that the Su family's business would be so booming.There are so many things, so much meat, she never knew that there are so many rich people in the town, isn't this much more expensive than buying meat by herself!Looking at the smile on Su Xueyun's face, she always felt that it was a mockery of her, how naive she was before, and she ran to mock the Su family.
Looking at it any further, she was making herself guilty, Li Xiner gritted her teeth and pushed her way out of the crowd.She looked back at Su Ji, with a weird smile on her face, and then walked to the place where beggars often go.
Li Xiner's way to get revenge is very simple. Aren't those time-traveling stories that people will miss whenever they have a good recipe?Now that Su Ji's stuff is so good, naturally it should be remembered. No matter whether Su Ji can be brought down in the end, it's good to disgust them once.
Li Xin'er bought a few beggars with a few copper coins she had hidden, and asked them to go to various restaurants to yell that Su Ji had a secret recipe handed down from their ancestors.There are only three restaurants in the town, and there are also smaller restaurants and taverns. It is always a bit of a foundation to be able to do so for so long. She doesn't believe that none of them are thinking about the "ancestral secret recipe"!
I have to say that Li Xiner's method is really useful.No restaurant would think that there are too many special dishes in their own house. They searched for food recipes from all over the world, just to make their restaurant more unique.Some of this kind of "searching" are normal transactions, and some are scheming or robbery, it all depends on the character of the person in charge of the restaurant.
Among the three restaurants in the town, Yunlailou is the first one, which is named after the guest like Yunlai, and the name is indeed correct. The customers of this restaurant are really like the guest, and the business is very good.The restaurant ranked second is called Wangjiang Tower, which is located on the riverside and has a row of seats overlooking the river, which is unique and elegant.These two restaurants have been open in the town for decades, and they are considered time-honored brands in the town.
At the bottom of the list is a rising star, called Zhaocailou, which doesn't look like a restaurant, but it has become the current climate in just five years, and the boss is also a character not to be underestimated.It is said that this Zhaocai building is famous for its special dishes. There are many dishes in the building that are not available in the local area, and many customers are famous to go to the building to taste.
After Li Xiner asked the little beggar to yell out the secret recipe handed down from her family, the waiter from Zhaocai Building approached Su Baizhu who was helping in Suji, glanced up, looked down on others, and said bluntly: "The food in your shop is good, Our boss has taken a fancy to it, and I will give you two taels of silver to bring the recipe."
Su Baizhu frowned, "My family doesn't sell prescriptions, please go back."
Xiao Er then set his sights on him, looked him up and down, and laughed like he was looking at an idiot: "Not for sale? Do you know who our boss is? We are Zhaocailou! What the boss likes about you is You don't want to sell your luck? Hehe, why don't you give it a try?"
"I only know that the affairs of this town are under the management of the magistrate of the county, but not under the management of Zhaocai Building. No matter where it is, there is no reason to force people to sell things. You go, we won't sell things." This kind of thing can't be done. Withdrawing, Su Baizhu's attitude was very clear, and there was no room for negotiation.
Xiaoer was so angry that he left behind a "wait and see" and flung his sleeves away.
Su Xueyun lifted the curtain and came out, and said, "Brother, Zhaocailou has taken a fancy to our recipe?"
"It's not unusual. Don't be afraid. I'll ask someone first to find out whether it's serious or not. There are more than one restaurant in the town. Yunlaitou and Wangjianglou are more established than Zhaocailou. Selling, there are other ways." Su Baizhu comforted Su Xueyun, not wanting his sister to worry about this matter.
Su Xueyun nodded and said: "Brother, you are right, Zhaocailou is still weaker than the other two, just now I saw that person's temper was a bit anxious, I am afraid that Zhaocailou will make more moves, why don't I go to Yunlailou and Wangwang Take a look at Jianglou."
Su Baizhu said: "I'll just go, you're a girl and it's not easy to show your face."
Su Xueyun smiled and said, "How about I disguise myself as a man? I don't want to marry anyway."
"You! That's fine, you can go if you want, and don't dress up as a man. Everyone knows that our family has a daughter, and a handsome young man suddenly appears. Maybe he will be regarded as a son-in-law." Su Baizhu often listened to her If you don't want to marry, you can make fun of her now.
Su Xueyun clenched her right fist and slammed it on the palm of her left hand, and said with bright eyes, "That's okay too! Anyway, it's enough to fool those outsiders."
Su Baizhu lost his temper after being tortured by this younger sister, so he simply turned around and left, going to the restaurant to talk about things, he had to be prepared.
Su Xueyun smiled, and also made some preparations, but first she packed a little of every delicious food at home, and personally sent it to the Qiu family's mansion, which was the Qiu family where the grandparents and grandchildren who bought the corn pancakes first lived.
The porter saw a girl carrying a basket, and was a little puzzled, "Who is the girl?"
Su Xueyun smiled and said: "Master Qiu and Young Master Qiu asked me to bring something, saying that it was for the young master to change his taste, you see."
No one in the entire Qiu manor knew about the young master's poor appetite. Seeing all kinds of delicious snacks in Su Xueyun's basket, his eyes immediately brightened.The boy felt that his saliva was about to flow out. This must have been given to the young master, and his attitude immediately improved a lot, "Wait a minute, girl, I will report to the master right now."
"I'm tired."
It didn't take long for the boy to report to the master, and Su Xueyun was invited in after standing there for a while.The servant took Su Xueyun to the garden, and Su Xueyun saw Old Man Qiu sitting in the gazebo drinking tea from a distance, while Young Master Qiu was feeding fish and playing with water by the pond.
Su Xueyun walked to the gazebo, saluted the old man with a smile, and said with a smile: "Master Qiu is well, thanks to Master Qiu and the young master for taking care of the family's business, it gave us a good start, now I have thought about it a little bit more." This kind of food is specially sent to Master Qiu and the young master to taste, please don't be disgusted with it."
Only then did Master Qiu look up at her with a smile in his eyes, "Okay, come and sit."
Su Xueyun handed over the basket to the servants, and naturally sat opposite Master Qiu, glanced at Young Master Qiu, and asked, "Your Master, is your appetite better?"
"It's rare that you still remember. It's a pity that he still doesn't like to eat, especially meat. I'm afraid he won't like the food you sent today, but thank you for your kindness." Mr. Qiu has great respect for those who care about his grandson. Well-meaning, talking like chatting, and not putting on a superior posture.
Young Master Qiu heard them talking, ran over curiously, saw Su Xueyun smiled and said, "Huh? You are that cornbread sister!"
Su Xueyun was stunned for a moment, raised the corners of her mouth, and said dumbfoundedly: "Young master, what I brought you today is corned egg, so don't you want to call me elder sister corned egg?"
"Then I don't know what your name is. Of course I can only call you this. Don't you always call me 'little son'? My name is Qiu Heng. What's your name?" Qiu Heng sat down at the table with great interest. , as if asking to understand.
Su Xueyun said with a smile: "Young master Heng, my name is Su Xiu'er, you still remember cornbread, is it because you like eating it?"
Qiu Heng nodded and said: "It's delicious, but I can't get used to it every time I eat it, and it's delicious when it's hot. Every time someone buys it, it's cold, and the home-made ones are not delicious, and grandpa won't let me eat it." go out."
Qiu Heng looked at Master Qiu unhappily. Master Qiu shook his head and laughed, "Isn't it because you are sick that you are not allowed to go out? How can you go out to play when you are sick? Now that you are well, you can go out naturally."
Only then did Qiu Heng smile, and said to Su Xueyun: "Then I'll go to your stall again, and you remember to leave me two hot tortillas."
Su Xueyun agreed without thinking, "That's no problem, because now we don't set up a stall anymore, we have opened a snack shop, selling all kinds of delicious food, the corn cakes are all freshly made, Mr. Heng arrived Then you will know."
Qiu Heng became more interested, "Is there a shop? Well, I will definitely go to see it. There must be more things in the shop than in the stalls. I don't know what is delicious. By the way, what is it that smells so delicious just now? Is that what you sold?"
"Yes, I think the taste is very good, why don't you try it, Young Master Heng?"
Qiu Heng touched his stomach, nodded and said, "I'm a little hungry after smelling the aroma, take it here and taste it."
Qiu Heng took a small mouthful first, and then took another big mouthful, and then he showed a happy expression, and started to eat happily.
Mr. Qiu was a little surprised, but also a little funny, shook his head and said, "It's like this, children, the food outside is always better than the food at home." He stroked Qiu Heng's hair, his eyes were full of kindness, and said, "Girl, You don’t want to go to the Three Treasures Hall today, right? But what happened to you when you opened the shop?”
Su Xueyun said with a smile: "You can't hide anything from Mr. Qiu. I came here today to ask for something."
