Rebirth: Don't Be the Best

The bone soup was boiled at home yesterday, and it was packed in two large earthen pots. It is impossible to make this hot and sour vermicelli without soup.

Today, in addition to the wooden boards they put on the cart to make the table, they also brought a table by themselves, supported by four poles at the bottom, and put it away when not in use, which is convenient and does not take up space. Take a cloth strip and tie it.

Li Muzhen placed the bowls containing chopped green onion, coriander, sauerkraut powder and peanut chili on top, and placed slices of Chinese cabbage on top in small pots, then took out the dried vermicelli soaked in the morning from the bucket, and put them in a bowl put at the forefront.

They brought two stoves, one for soup and one for hot water.When someone wants to order it, just pour a bowl into the strainer and boil it with hot water, then pour the seasoning and eat it.

They ate this at noon and night yesterday. It tastes sour, spicy and fragrant. It tastes smooth and chewy. The soup tastes delicious. After eating, they feel warm all over their bodies. Dense beads of sweat dissipated the air-conditioning.

Zhang Shu stirred the soup with a long-handled spoon, and the fresh and fragrant taste soon spread out.

Only then did people notice this newly opened breakfast shop. Someone followed the scent and looked at the things on the small table curiously. The color looked green, red and white, which made people more appetizing.

Hu Caiwang was a businessman, and he looked rich in his clothes.He often does business on this road, and has long been tired of eating the food at the stalls here. Today, a new stall came, so he came to join in the fun.

"Brother, what do you sell here?" He pointed to the translucent vermicelli and asked Zhang Shu with great interest. Although Li Mujin was standing right in front of him, her husband was here. Lang didn't speak very well.

"Brother, my house sells hot and sour vermicelli, would you like to try a bowl?"

"Hot and sour vermicelli?" It looks like noodles, but it's not as soft and white as noodles. "How much is a bowl?" It's not a disadvantage to ask the price first, or you will run into a blackmailer.

"...five cents a bowl!" Zhang Shu decided to quote this price, and lower the price if he couldn't sell it.

"Five cents! Isn't this too expensive for you? There are several large pieces of meat for a bowl of meat noodles for five cents. You haven't even seen any meat stars, and you still have to sell it for five cents a bowl?" Hu Caiwang thought , Fortunately, I asked the price first, otherwise I would be cheated.

Zhang Shu frowned, and opened his mouth to say, "Our... this..." He is not good at arguing with others, and he doesn't know which sentence to say first, he has to make a draft in his heart before he can say it.

"Brother, look at what you said. Although we don't have big meat here, our soup is also made from meat and bones. You can smell it. Does the general soup have the same fragrance as ours? Besides, this stuff is not good. Fresh food, you can’t eat the first portion anywhere, so it’s not worth spending a little money to try something new?” Li Muqin saw Zhang Shu’s faltering, knowing that he didn’t argue much with others, so he took over the conversation. I said it myself.

Hu Caiwang saw that Zhang Shu didn't refute Li Mujin's words, and didn't react to his random interruption. Instead, he looked normal, so he knew that this little husband could call the shots at home.

"You can talk, it's so delicious according to what you said, is it worth the five cents?"

"Whether it's worth it or not is up to you, but I guarantee that this food in my family will never disappoint you. How about this, since you are the first customer, we will give you another bun. If you don't like it after eating How about that, how about we not charge you money?" Li Mujin thought that this person looked very rich, so he should not renege on his debts, so he said that, if he is a bastard, it is not good to say that he will definitely cook delicious food He wouldn't say that about eating!

Everyone was talking about this, so Hu Caiwang was naturally embarrassed to say anything, no matter what he could afford to eat this five cents, and he really wanted to try this new thing.

"Bring me a bowl."

"Okay." Li Mujin agreed, and then pushed Zhang Shu, telling him to go to the next bowl quickly.

Zhang Shu poured a bowl into the strainer, put in three slices of cabbage, soaked them in hot water, covered the pot, and it was ready after a while.Li Mujin took the big bowl and asked Hu Caiwang, "How do you like spicy food?"

"I have a heavy mouth, so I put more of the sour and spicy ones, as well as coriander and green onion."

"Okay." Li Muzhen put a large spoonful of hot pepper and pickled cabbage into the bowl, and put some coriander and chopped green onion into it. Finally, he picked up the large spoon and scooped a spoonful of soup into the earthen jar. The spicy aroma came out immediately.

Hu Caiwang sat beside the table on the scooter and swallowed secretly. The sour taste was just appetizing, and the smell made him hungry.

Li Mujin put a pair of chopsticks on it, and took a steamed bun from the wrapped steamer and put it in another bowl. He put it on a tray and put it in front of Hu Caiwang, and said "Brother, please use it slowly" before returning it to the back.

Zhang Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and took Li Mujin's hand from below, "Fortunately, you are here."

Li Mujin smiled secretly, "You don't think I'll save face for you." My brother is like a girl, married and obedient to her husband, and it's not easy to stand out in front of outsiders, otherwise others will definitely talk about it.

"You're not trying to save me, you're obviously helping me save face. When people see that I married such a powerful husband, they can't envy me to death." Zhang Shu spoke in front of Li Mujin, so he could say what he wanted to say. What.

Li Mujin knew that Zhang Shu had always been kind to him, but his heart was changeable, and suddenly he was living in an unfamiliar environment, and he was inevitably a little worried about gains and losses.Now Zhang Shu still treats him the same as before, and doesn't care about his appearance as the master of the house, so he can finally feel relieved.

Hu Caiwang took a bite of the vermicelli and kept putting it into the chopsticks, it must be quite chewy.He put the vermicelli into his mouth, and in an instant, the hot and sour feeling exploded in his mouth, rushing upwards, and with just one bite, there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

He quickly took a bite of the steamed bun, and after the taste subsided a bit, he took another bite into his mouth, and he was still sneered by the spicy food.

Li Mujin was a little worried, "Did I put too much on him? It won't be hot, right?"

"No way, it's almost finished. I even drank the soup." Zhang Shu observed this person and found that he should like to eat.

Hu Caiwang hadn't eaten so happily for a long time. The sourness and hotness made people feel unsatisfied, and he sweated all over. The boredom of sitting in the cabin all day was swept away, and his whole body felt comfortable.

He took out a cloth towel from his pocket and wiped the sweat from his brow, "Brother, this one from yours is delicious, and it's worth the five cents."

"Hey, old Hu, what is worth it or not? Why does it look like it was just fished out of the water?" Hu Caiwang's voice was loud, and what he said could be heard from a long distance away.

These few people are also merchants, they always take the same boat, and they basically know each other.

"I said the food at this stall is delicious! Have you eaten it? Why don't you have a bowl if you don't?" Hu Caiwang chatted with them and helped Zhang Shu get some business by the way.

"Your Hu's mouth is so tricky. You said it was delicious, so naturally we have to try it." The person who spoke first said, "Hey, I still don't know what to eat. Brother, give me a bowl too." .”

"Okay," Li Mujin replied, and then asked about the tastes of these people, and sent them according to their tastes.

A group of elders, each with a steamed bun and a bowl of hot and sour vermicelli, eating without looking up, only the sound of hot panting can be heard between each other.

After eating, all of them wiped their sweat with cloth towels, and one who didn't like spicy food even wiped away his tears and snot.

But everyone said it was delicious. When eating, a gust of hot air rushed straight to Tianling Gai. After eating, I was sweating all over the body and wiped off all the moisture on my body.

People on their commercial ships basically stay on board all year round. Summer and autumn are fine, at least they can come out to get some fresh air, but in spring and winter, the constant rain and strong winds can only make people stay. in the cabin.How big can the cabin be?In a place with big tofu blocks, a big man stays in it all day long, and he will get sick even if he is not sick.

This year is the same, hiding in the cabin, covered with a damp quilt, the damp and cold breath goes straight to the bones, and I don't even want to eat after staying for a long time.

The thing I ate today, I ate it sour to appetize, and I ate it spicy to sweat. Although my body was a bit sticky, it was a hundred times more comfortable than when I first came down.

They are still lamenting that Lao Hu has a tricky mouth and knows how to find food, so here Lao Hu comes to pay the bill.

There were six of them, each with a bowl of hot and sour vermicelli, and each with a steamed bun. Hu Caiwang counted out 36 Wen and handed it to Li Mujin, beckoning him to accept it.

"Hey, we have money, how can we let you spend money."

"That's right, I'll go out by myself."

Hu Caiwang waved his hand, "Usually I don't eat less of your food, but today I'll just do something and just accept it."

Li Mujin counted the copper coins, took out another penny from it and returned it to Hu Caiwang.

"This is?"

"You counted correctly, but I said before that your steamed bun was given away. How can you go back on what you said? Do you think so?" Li Mujin said with a smile.

Hu Caiwang looked at him for a while, and then said to Zhang Shu, "Little brother, you are a well-married husband, and he is capable of great things." The most important thing for their businessmen is to keep their promises, and doing business with such people can be at ease. .

Zhang Shu rubbed his head and laughed, obviously thinking that what he said was right.

After Hu Caiwang's group left, another group came after a while, saying that they were recommended by Lao Hu and that the food was delicious.

Zhang Shu was in charge of ironing, and Li Mujin was in charge of seasoning. The two of them were very busy greeting these people.

Taking advantage of the break, Li Mujin soaked some dried vermicelli in the bucket again. The ones soaked in the morning were all sold out by now.

There are also other people, seeing how lively the food is here, they also want to join in.Some people left after hearing the price, and some hesitated to order a bowl.But after eating, everyone said it was delicious.There are really those who don't like spicy food at all, and they leave when they see the fire in the guest's bowl, so no one says it's too spicy.

Zhang Shu and Li Mujin were worried that no one would eat this before, but now they are completely relieved.
