After rebirth, I win people's hearts by being cute

Su's mother made him a bowl of noodles and told him to eat it and wait for Shitou to come back.

He finished eating carefully and took the dishes to wash them.

When Shitou came back, Su's mother called him into the room and said, "Look at you. You didn't even say hello to us, but just let someone come to our house and said you wanted to be a servant. Your father and I were scared to death."

Su's mother spoke like pouring beans, seemingly complaining, but actually trying to help.

Shitou patiently explained: "Mom, that day I saw him about to jump into the river, and I thought it was a life after all. My family happened to be in need of a worker, so I asked him to come, but I didn't know that he brought a death contract with him."

Father Su moved his legs and refused to give in. "Tell him to go back. My leg is healed now. I will do the work from now on. It's not right for farmers to use servants."

Su's mother also meant this: "Your father is right. We are a farming family and are poor to begin with. Don't delay them."

Shitou knew that it would be difficult to change their minds in a short time, so he could only say firmly:

"Dad, Mom. I've already thought about this matter. I'll just say he's a distant cousin who came to live with us."

"As for the monthly salary, it's 500 coins per month. Aren't you afraid that the recipe will be leaked? He has signed a death contract and will never tell anyone about it in his lifetime."

After saying that, he went out, and Father Su was so angry that his whole body was shaking, "What did he say? What does he mean? What I say as a father doesn't count?"

Su's mother said to him, "Dad, calm down. We will accept this for the sake of our family."

"Shitou is a man of his own ideas. He knows what to do. His teacher also said that day that he is the best student in the academy, so we should just follow his lead."

Father Su complained helplessly: "You, a loving mother spoils her son!"

Su's mother acquiesced when she heard his tone, "Okay, the child just wants everyone to relax a little, I'll go out and take a look."

She looked at the thin boy and asked, "Kid, what's your name?"

The young man answered timidly, "My name is Changsheng, a name my mother gave me."

When Su's mother thought of his plight, she felt pity for him: "Good boy, Shitou, take Changsheng to buy some clothes. I'll cook at home."

Shitou did not refuse: "Well, let's go."

Changsheng followed behind Shitou, and he remembered what the boy, who was a few years younger than him, said that day.

"If you are not afraid of death, why should you be afraid of living?"

"If you believe me, I will avenge you later."

Maybe his eyes were too sincere.

Or maybe his temperament is different from others.

Changsheng believed him for some unknown reason, created the illusion of jumping into the river, followed him to the post station, and waited for the right time to come to the Su family.

Changsheng believed that his choice would not be wrong.

From then on, Changsheng settled down at home.

Liu Huan and Su's mother were much more relaxed. He rushed to work every day but ate very little.

Later, Liu Huan changed his bowl to the largest one and filled it up for him. Only then did he say that a small bowl would be fine for him.

Su's mother looked at his skinny body and said, "You are eating me out of money, little boy. It's not enough for you to eat so little. You still have to work. How can you work like this?"

Seeing that the Su family was sincere, he ate as much as he could, and it was the first full meal he had since his mother's death.

In the bowl was the meat picked up by Su's mother, and next to it was Liu Huansheng's soup. It was the most delicious meal he had ever eaten. Even later when he was allowed to choose from delicacies from land and sea, he often said that they were not as delicious as before.

With his help in making tofu, Liu Huan completely ignored everything and focused on making cold dishes.

That day I made braised large intestines and pig ears and sent them to Doctor Fang, and Doctor Fang came the next day.

There was only one purpose, and that was to urge Liu Huan to quickly get some to sell. "Look at you, you hid such delicious food."

Looking at Changsheng next to him, he said, "This guy has confessed, so hurry up and sell all the cold dishes. I'm worried about you. Your family is just having trouble with money."

Liu Huan perfunctorily said, "Yes, yes, you are right. Remember to come and support us tomorrow."

So Liu Huan started the business of brine again.

Many people buy it at 18 cents per pound.

There was a famous heavy-flavor lover in the town who passed by here and looked at the long line with disdain.

"It's just the offal that no one wants, but it's sold at such a high price. How delicious can it be? Can it be better than braised pork?"

The aunt who often bought tofu recognized him at a glance: "Aren't you the famous tofu lover? Why haven't you tried her braised food?"

The old man smiled proudly: "I went to the county town. This town hasn't produced food that satisfied me for a long time."

My aunt smiled meaningfully and said, "Don't say it so early. You won't know until you try it."

"Big sister, give me half a pound of pig intestines and a pig ear."

Su's mother praised the aunt and turned to ask the old man, "Old man, would you like to try some?"

The customer behind him was not happy, "Boss, we are waiting in line, you can't give it to him in advance."

"No, no, I still know the rules."

The man was naturally not convinced after hearing that, so he ran to the back to queue up. He wanted to see how delicious it was. If it was not, he would just throw his food at her stall.

There were only a few cold-mixed pig ears and dry-pot pork intestines warmed over charcoal fire left.

He waved his hand and took them all.

He took out the chopsticks from his pocket and started eating right next to the stall. He wanted to slap them hard in the face.

He took a bite and then froze. When the onlookers thought he was going to vomit, they saw him just run away.

Following his gaze, I saw that he had bought two taels of wine from the grocery store and was squatting on the ground, drinking it in small sips.

After he finished eating everything, he quickly stepped forward and said, "I want whatever is left."

Mother Su looked apologetic and said, "I'm sorry, we only have two taels of cold pig intestines. If you want to eat the cooked ones, you can only come tomorrow."

"Pack it up for me." He left without saying anything else.

Needless to say, this is free advertising.

Those who had been watching thought that even someone as picky as him thought it was good, so they decided to buy some to try tomorrow.

When the old man came the next day, the line was longer, but when it was his turn, there were only a few vacancies left.

After he took all the money, he said dissatisfiedly, "Can't you do more? This is not enough."

At this point, the Su family's braised pork became famous, and even the students in the academy asked their families to buy it and send it to them.

"Did you buy it today? I didn't buy it at home."

"Don't mention it. When I went there, there were only pig ears. The pig intestines I had been craving for were gone."

Chu Xuan said proudly: "Hahahahaha, my family bought it, and there are new varieties today, braised chicken feet and chicken wings, I didn't know these two things could be made this way."

A group of young boys gathered around and only after all the sweet talk they had put in place did they each get a share.

"Hey Su Yi, do you want to try it? It's delicious."

Shitou still shook his head. If he wanted to eat, he could go back and eat.

"Forget it, I don't have enough to share. I guess I have to go earlier tomorrow."
