Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

"Brother, when your sauerkraut is ready, cook us two bowls of sauerkraut noodles, and uncle will prepare it for you!"

Uncle Li smelled the enticing fragrance that grew bigger and bigger at the end of his nose, and his stomach began to sing an empty plan.

Liu Yu nodded with a smile, picked up a piece of dough, picked up the rolling pin, and started rolling it.

When the water boils in the pot, Liu Yu deftly throws down the rolled thin and even noodles, boils the water twice, then uses a bamboo colander to scoop it into a soup bowl, scoops two full spoonfuls of the soy sauce and oily sauce, and finally scoops the soup on top.

A bowl of delicious and meaty noodles is ready.

Pilgrims rushing to burn incense sticks occasionally pass by, and if they inadvertently raise their noses when passing by, they will take a second look.

I secretly decided to come down the mountain later and have a bowl of it.

Uncle Li sat in front of his stall, enjoying a bite of noodles and a bite of meat with his husband.

The noodles are chewy and the stir-fried pork belly is rich and caramelized, and the sauce is full of flavor.

The soup is very delicious, and you can drink it in one sip, not to mention it will warm you up.

Uncle Li and his husband were like living signs. After finishing a bowl of noodles, their foreheads were slightly wet.

“This noodle soup is really enjoyable to eat!”

Uncle Li brought two empty bowls over and asked Liu Yu how much silver they had.

"A bowl of meat-and-soy noodles costs eight cents, and a bowl of vegetarian noodles costs five cents. This is your first business, so let's count them as vegetarian. Just give us ten cents."

Liu Yu took the bowl and said with a smile.

"That's not possible. I said I would open it for you. How could it be like this?"

Uncle Li took out sixteen cents of money and put it on the table. Other people's meat dumplings can hold half of the vegetarian food.

This young couple is sincere and they actually use meat and vegetables, and they also put a lot of spices in. A bowl of eight coins is not expensive at all.

Liu Yu was not as polite as Uncle Li, so she sent Uncle Li away, put the coins into a jar designed for copper coins, and looked at Chang Sheng who was warming himself in front of the fire, feeling very happy in her heart.

This can be considered a good start!

"Boss, how do you sell eggs?"

Liu Yu and Chang Sheng were staring at the money jar happily, but suddenly a cold and tired voice sounded.

"Two and one!"

Raw eggs cost a penny a piece. I originally thought of pricing them at a penny and a half, but it was difficult to pay for them in silver.

They collected it for a penny a piece, but they couldn't sell it at the original price, so why bother? They just paid a penny a piece. If they could sell it, they would sell it, and if they couldn't sell it, they would keep it for themselves to eat!

"Can it be cheaper?"

"You are the first customer to buy eggs today, so you are opening for us. More than two can be cheaper. I don't know how many customers want it!"

Liu Yu put the money jar into Changsheng's hand and went to greet the guests.

"Yeah, it's you!"

The light from the fire was dim, and when Liu Yu walked closer, she saw the unclear facial outline of the person in front of her. It was Chang Xi's husband, Huang Ying.

Although they are in the same village, the two families do not live close to each other, and there is a matter of immortality between them. Although they have seen each other in the village, they have never said a word to each other.

Huang Ying also saw Liu Yu at this moment, looked at where Changsheng was sitting, and nodded slightly as a greeting.

He came all the way, carrying nothing but a few pennies that Chang Xi secretly gave him, a pack of incense in a basket and a knife of yellow paper.

Thinking that besides being lazy, Chang Xi was treating himself well, so I wanted to burn a lucky egg for Chang Xi when I was burning incense.

The eggs at home were locked up by his mother-in-law, and no matter what he did, he could not steal them openly. He walked past many stalls, but only eggs were sold in front of him, but he didn't expect it to be a stall set up by a fellow villager.

If other families could rest, it was these two who had heard about immortality before they got married. He always felt very embarrassed every time they met.

"I want an egg!"

Huang Ying's voice was as cold as her eyebrows, but she never mentioned anything cheaper.

"One is two cents, if you want two, it will be three cents!"

Liu Yu filled a bowl of noodle soup, handed it over and said.

"Thank you!"

Huang Ying did not refuse, took the noodle soup, drank it slowly, ordered two eggs, took out three pennies, and continued to move forward with the pilgrims who were burning incense sticks.

About two-quarters of an hour later, a rich bell sounded from the top of the mountain, and everyone knew that it was midnight.

Pilgrims traveling together carried joss sticks on their backs and went up the mountain one after another. When they saw an egg seller here, most of them would buy a few.

Liu Yu was guarding the bamboo basket with eggs, and was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the best-selling item was the eggs.

Another two-quarters of an hour later, the pilgrims came down from the mountain in twos and threes. Most of the pilgrims from nearby villages went home directly.

Some of them had traveled a long way and were hungry and cold, but they chose a restaurant to get some food.

The fire was strong, the water in the pot was boiling, the aroma of the squid was spreading, and a neatly dressed man was rolling out noodles.

The noodles are floating in the boiling water, and the steam is curling up, giving it a warm feeling.

Liu Yu rolled out the noodles and put them into the pot.

Changsheng was holding the bowl and a bamboo colander beside him. When the noodles floated for a few breaths, he hurriedly took them out, added the sauteed seeds, and scooped out the noodle soup in an orderly manner.

When the noodles are brought to the table, all the guests first drink a bowl of hot and fragrant noodle soup mixed with sour seeds.

As the noodle soup reaches my stomach, the chill in my body is driven away, and my hands and feet become warm again.

Pick the noodles mixed with the soybean seeds with your chopsticks, and eat them in big mouthfuls. The noodles are smooth and fragrant with the soy sauce and the soybean seeds, and the soup is also shiny. It is really the best taste in the world!

There was enough noodles and plenty of sauerkraut. At the end of the meal, when I took the last sip of the noodle soup, there were even tiny bits of meat.

The guests were satisfied with their food, and no one complained about the high price when paying.

The two of them were busy rolling and cooking noodles around the boiler. On a spring night that was suddenly warm but still cold, a thin layer of sweat broke out on their foreheads.

"Thank you all for the compliments. We will have dumplings and tea tomorrow. Come and listen to the show tomorrow and come and support me!"

The guests nodded in greeting, and before leaving, they usually bought a few rice dumplings and took them home to the elderly and children to eat.

It was early to see off the guests, and the number of people was gradually decreasing.

The two of them looked at how little meat was left. They were happy, but also anxious. Tomorrow was the day of the temple fair, so if there was no meat left, where would they go to buy meat in the meantime?

"Brother Liu, you put too much sauerkraut. Just fill up your spoon and add some other vegetables. Just one spoonful is enough."

Uncle Li's incense paper is also selling very well. At this moment, there are almost no people going up the mountain, and they have no time. Seeing this, I can't help but say a few words.

Liu Yu thanked Uncle Li for his kindness, but said that vegetables should be paired with vegetarian noodles, but meat noodles would not reduce the sourness.

Eight cents for a bowl of meat-soaked noodles is not very cheap. If we don't provide enough meat, we will definitely not be able to do business.

Looking at the money jar with abundant harvest, Liu Yu had an idea in her mind.

Fortunately, Uncle Li also informed the two of them that a butcher would come over tomorrow to sell meat, so just get up early and pick out the meat.

It was still about an hour before dawn, and there was no need to close the stall. The two of them sealed the air outlet of the tandoor and left the tent curtain open, so they could still take a nap.

Closing his eyes, Liu Yu suddenly thought that he didn't seem to see Huang Ying, and he didn't know whether this person had gone down the mountain early in the morning or was still on the mountain.
