Blissful Days After Widowhood
Chapter 14:
Gu Yintian got up before dawn.
Wang was earlier than her, and when Gu Yin got up, she had already set the stove on fire.
Seeing the blue shadow in her eyes, Gu Yin couldn't help but persuade: "It's still early, you'll stare for a while, I'll come here by myself. I'll call you again."
How can she sleep? She was stunned that she didn't dare to close her eyes all night - when there were only seven taels left in the whole family yesterday, she felt so distressed. Later, I bought the ingredients and bought the utensils for the stall. It cost a total of three or two and a half, so I went to half.
At that time, I was driven by the words of my mother's niece and nephew, but I was afraid when I calmed down. If this transaction can't be done, I really don't know what will happen in the back of the family!
At this time, there were no boats docked at the pier, but the small vendors came one after another.
Wang has come to inquire the day before. There are no rules for doing business here. Only at the end of the month, the yamen will come to collect the booth fee.
transfer fee.
A mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law like Gu Yin have no foundation and cannot afford the transfer fee, so naturally they can only choose a location that is not very cheap.
The pots and pans, the low tables and benches are all open, and the small wonton stand is open for business.
When the sky was bright, the pier was crowded with people, and the nearby shouts drowned out, and Gu Yin added firewood and started to heat the pot.
Of course, there are many people who ask the price of Gu Yin’s ravioli, but Gu Yin’s wontons are not particularly cheap—a bowl of wontons is four cents, while other wontons are not cheap. There are only three texts on the stall.
It was a penny more expensive, and they were a little hesitant. Only two people bought a bowl of money.
Gu Yin asked Wang Shi to buy an extra jar of vinegar and a few heads of garlic yesterday.
The garlic was chopped into minced garlic by Gu Yin and placed in a small wooden bowl. Like vinegar, you can add it according to the taste of the guests.
One of the two guests put minced garlic and the other put a few spoonfuls of vinegar, and they both finished the bowl quickly. Before leaving, they praised Gu Yin's fish ravioli.
Gu Yin's heart is calm.
In fact, food is a matter of taste, and each flower appeals to each eye, just like the sweet dishes in the south cannot reach the mouth of Sichuan people who love spicy food, she is not sure about her own Will the craftsmanship be recognized by people other than Wang's and Xiao Wu'an?
But when the tastes of the two guests were obviously different, and they both praised her wontons for being delicious, she knew that her worries were unnecessary.
But she is not in a hurry, the Wang Shi next to her is in a hurry.
Only two bowls were sold in the past half-morning, how much money can I make in the end of the day? !
"Mother sit down and rest first." Gu Yin saw that Wang Shi's throat was smoking, poured a bowl of hot water and handed it to her, "We can't be in a hurry when we first arrive, take it slow. The land will get better and better.”
Just like she took over the family porridge shop in her last life, old customers saw her young and tender face, and they doubted her craftsmanship. At that time, the business in the shop was also reduced by nearly half.
But over time, those who have tasted her craftsmanship have become repeat customers, not only the old customers have returned, but also many new customers have gradually added, and the business has become more and more prosperous.
"I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry." Mrs. Wang muttered to herself, not knowing whether she was comforting Gu Yin or comforting herself.
After drinking a sip of water, Mrs. Wang was still unwilling to rest.
Gu Yin looked at her and knew she was in a hurry.
Yesterday, my mother-in-law didn't sleep well all night, and if she has a bad mood today, I'm afraid she will not be able to sleep again at night.
Even if Wang is in good health, how many days can she endure so anxiously? I'm afraid that she will fall ill first.
Gu Yin pondered for a while, then thought: "Actually, I have a way, but I want to wrong my mother."
"Hey, you child has a way not to say it sooner!" Mrs Wang put down the water bowl and slapped her and said, "As long as I can open the way earlier, I have no grievances!"
…
Old Liutou, who sells fried ghosts, has been doing business on the wharf for two years.
His family was originally in Yuanshan County next door, and his ancestors have been doing this all the time, and it is the third generation that has been passed down to his generation.
Three generations made a fortune by craftsmanship, bought a house in the town, begged a wife, and saw that life was getting better and better.
Old Liutou ran all night with his wife and children, and went to this Hanshan Town to settle down again.
I thought life would be the same, but Lao Liutou didn't expect it to be so difficult to start from scratch - the stalls at the wharf are poorly positioned, the passenger flow is low, and the old customers accumulated over the years are gone. The business can be described as It's plummeted.
It has been two years until now, and Lao Liutou's business has not been able to return to the past.
But Lao Liutou was very satisfied. The vendors on the pier kept changing, and only a few households including him with really good craftsmanship were able to do business for a long time.
Old Liutou waited to save enough transfer fees, and moved his stall forward.
Today is also rare, Lao Liutou found a new wonton stand next to it.
The stall owner is also a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
It is also pitiful, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law only sold two bowls of wontons in the morning.
Old Liutou was thinking about whether to send two words of advice when he suddenly heard a shout from the side.
The young and thin little daughter-in-law next to her knelt down with a thud, and a crisp, crying voice spread out—
"Mother, give me another chance!"
What's wrong?
Old Liutou fryed fritters and looked aside.
Not to mention the people nearby, as long as there is no work in hand, just look here, and passers-by stop one after another.
"Opportunity? Didn't I give you a chance? The poor family can't open the pot, you have to say that you can make a living by doing small business. But look, only two bowls of wontons were sold in the first half of the morning, it's up to you Our whole family will starve to death!"
He frowned when he heard this old Liutou. He has been a foodie for half his life, and it took half a year to gain a firm foothold in another place.
This mother-in-law is too vicious!
"Mother, please allow me two more days. You have tasted my craft, and you praised me yesterday."
"Fuck! I don't care about your craftsmanship or not, I only accept money. The family can't open the pot. If you can't earn money, see how my mother will deal with you!" Humph, "I bought you back and raised you to such an age, you should repay your gratitude! My son is gone, and it is a great gift to keep a widow like you at home, why not marry you to an old man? Outside the staff to fill in the room…”
"I...I don't want to be a concubine."
"Is it your turn to call the shots?!"
Wang's big slap was about to slap Gu Yin's face.
How can this little daughter-in-law with fine skin and tender meat stand up to this slap!
It's not your daughter-in-law's fault. She is still thinking of subsidizing her family at a young age. It's a good thing to have that kind of heart. And I just heard that the customers at your stall were full of praise for your daughter-in-law's craftsmanship. It can be seen that she She's really capable! How can you say something like asking her to be a concubine for others?!"
Old Liutou became more and more angry, and his voice became louder and louder.
But strangely, the woman in front of him was not displeased by his interjection, but a faint smile appeared on her lips.
Why are you so happy?
Old Liutou didn't have time to think about it, and listened to Wang Shi again: "What's the use of delicious food? This stall is set up to make money for a day and lose money for a day, our family is not rich, can How long will it last? What's wrong with marrying a concubine? My family will get a sum of money to change the family right away!"
"You, you..." Old Liutou was so **** off by her strong words that he hesitated for a long time and didn't know what to say.
In the end, seeing Gu Yin's pitiful appearance in tears, Old Liu's heart softened, and he took out a few pennies, "I just didn't eat Chaoshi, my daughter-in-law made me a bowl. "
Wang turned her face away and muttered, "A bowl and a half bowl is enough for what, hum!"
Gu Yin received the money, thanked the old Liutou with red eyes, and then quickly wrapped and placed the wontons.
The wonton wrappers seemed to come alive in her hands, but in the blink of an eye, a dozen or so were wrapped.
And after the fish soup was heated again, it burst out with a strong aroma.
"Don't cry, little daughter-in-law, bring me a bowl too!"
"That is, if you smell it so good, you know it must be delicious, don't listen to your mother-in-law, let's eat by craftsmanship is not ashamed!"
Passers-by and other nearby vendors took action to fight for Gu Yinming.
Gu Yin thanked them one after another, and made a few bowls of wontons in no time.
Because of the large number of people gathered here, other people saw the queue here from a distance, and moved towards it unconsciously.
The little ravioli stall that nobody cares about just now is full of people.
While eating delicious wontons, everyone condemned Wang with their eyes—
Skilled little daughter-in-law, she is still beaten, scolded and scolded, but she is born into the hands of this evil mother-in-law, and her life is bitter!
Wang shouted angrily: "I see what you can sell, hum!"
Then pushed the crowd away.
The steam was steaming by the side of the pot, and Gu Yin stood there pretty, her eyes blushing like a bunny, and a shy blush rose on her face.
It makes people even more unbearable to blame.
Everyone said a pity for her again in their hearts, and after listening to more and more people's praise, more and more people followed suit.
Because it was a trial operation, Gu Yin only prepared about fifty bowls of wontons.
Her wontons were sold out before noon.
At this time, the people in front of her stall have changed several times, and the focus of everyone is no longer the farce-like contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but the food itself.
Gu Yin responded one by one, then packed her things and left the dock with a load.
Are you doing well?"
