After the gourmet up dressed as a spoiled man

Chapter 31 Sour Plum Soup with Ginger and Milk Fried Tofu

Lin Shiyou drooped his eyes and lowered his voice: "Huh? Xiaoyu say it again?"

Li Yu's voice, which seemed to be a smile but not a smile, suddenly cheered up, and smiled flatteringly: "I mean, let's eat some barbecue to replenish our body, we are too tired today!"

With a sloppy eye, he refused to admit what he said just now. Li Yu leaned against Lin Shiyou's hard chest, and secretly slandered: "I was confused just now, I don't know it yet, my husband is too good!"

Just now, Lin Shi saw Li Yu closed his eyes and deliberately let him take a nap. Now that he understood what he said, he didn't intend to let him go, so he pinched his chin and pecked, "Let's try again when we go back tonight." Use it or not!"

Li Yu was about to say something nice to coax him, when Mrs. Sanfang walked over from the back kitchen rubbing her shoulders, "There are so many guests today, let's settle the score from time to time, let Brother Yu rest first, and we will take a carriage back to the village later."

Lin Shiyou stood up and went to the counter, opened Li Yu's small box and carefully selected the cash register. It looked like he really made a lot of money!

How could Li Yu miss counting the money, so he rushed over immediately, "Today, Mr. Xiang, a man ate more than 40 skewers by himself, and another child also chose more than 50 skewers to take away! It seems that the people in the town are pretty good. I love BBQ."

"The taste is good and the style is fresh. Isn't this all attractive!" Mrs. Sanfang is happy even when she is tired. This is more than earning in the canteen in the village.

After a while, Lin Shiyou settled the accounts. On the first day of opening, he earned one tael or six renminbi. This was the income after the discounted price, and after deducting the cost, he could make a net profit of more than one tael.

"Sir, the people in the town are more willing to spend money on food than the people in the village. Let's sell barbecue for another day tomorrow, and then change the taste."

Li Yu was thinking about the cost of decorating the store and buying kitchen utensils. According to this turnover, it can be recovered in a few days. The freshness of the same food is not long for the big guys, but the barbecue is enduring, and no one can refuse. barbecue!

At that time, some other snacks will be sold interspersed, and they should also be very popular. Li Yu is not worried about this.

Lin Shiyou collected the account books and money, and said in a warm voice: "Xiaoyu's craftsmanship is good, and today there is Liu Yuanwai to support the scene. I think he was the last to leave. Many people also lined up together. The first day With a good start, the business will definitely flourish.”

"Don't worry, you young couple, mothers, take your time and don't worry!" Mrs. Sanfang urged: "Xiao Yu is the hardest one. Let's go back to the village for dinner."

Li Yu was so excited that he forgot to eat, and now he felt his stomach was empty. At noon, most of the people ate two eggs, thinking that there would be no guests before cooking, but unexpectedly, all the ingredients were sold out. I'm already hungry now.

Lin Shiyou locked the door of the store, went to a dim sum shop not far away to buy some of Li Yu's favorite pastries for him to rest his stomach on the road, and they boarded the carriage and returned to the village.

Sanfang Lin Fu was in poor health and did not go to the town to help. He cooked porridge and steamed egg custard at home. These two simple dishes were taught to him by his wife after he came to the village.

"The child's father!" Mrs. Sanfang called Lin Fu as soon as she entered the door, "Guess how much money the children earned when the shop opened today?"

Lin Fu laid out the bowls and chopsticks, and from his wife's expression, he knew that the business was going well, so he tentatively asked, "Five coins?"

Li Yu and Lin Shiyou looked at each other with a smile, and Mrs. Sanfang said triumphantly, "You underestimated it, you made a lot of money!"

Lin Fu was also happy for them, it was a good sign that the opening went so smoothly!

After eating, I prepared the grilled skewers for tomorrow, packed everything up and it was already late at night, so I went back to my room to rest.

In the early morning of the second day, someone came to wait at the door of the shop. It was not time for dinner, Li Yu was not in a hurry to bake, but seeing everyone queuing here, he simply opened the door early.

There are more customers today than yesterday, and many of them are repeat customers. "After eating this skewer during the day, I will still miss it at night. I will eat more later!"

Li Yulang said: "No problem, you can choose whatever you want! Free sour juice!"

With yesterday's experience, today's production is smoother, and I specially prepared more ingredients and sold out.After calculating in the afternoon, the income was one or two taels more than yesterday.

Li Yu propped his head and held a bowl of sour juice while quietly watching Lin Shiyou fiddling with his abacus, "Let's go to Mr. Liu's pharmacy later, and I'll grab some herbs to make another drink, which is better than sour juice." drink."

"What good idea did Xiaoyu come up with?" Lin Shi kept moving.

Li Yu stared at his slender and well-proportioned fingers, and unconsciously lost his mind, "Sanggong's hand can be used as a hand model!"

Just as he was thinking about it, he felt warm fingertips gently touch the end of his eyes, Lin Shiyou called him back to his senses: "Let's go, let's go out for a stroll."

Their shop was closed at night, and they were only busy at noon, when the vendors in the night market on the street were setting up their stalls.

Li Yu passed by a shop selling cloth heads and suddenly remembered, "Sir, let's buy two quilts, the ones at home are thin and old, and won't keep you warm."

Lin Shiyou had already made arrangements, "When I went to buy the shop's door curtains that day, I had already ordered two beds. They were in the shop where we made clothes, and they could be picked up in a few days."

Li Yu tilted his head and looked at his profile with a smile. Xianggong was more thoughtful and thoughtful than himself, and he had considered this aspect in advance.He couldn't help joking: "Sanggong has been the roundworm in my stomach again!"

Lin Shiyou pinched his fingertips and thought to himself, the quilts were old and the material was not good. There were a few times when the quilts were torn by Xiao Yu during the tossing at night, so it was necessary to change a few beds quickly new!

The two of them whispered to each other and arrived at Liu Yuanwai's shop in a short while. Only the clerk was in the shop and saw them greet them warmly: "What medicinal materials do you two need?"

"Brother, please get me dried hawthorn slices, tangerine peel, licorice and black plum. Take half a catty each of these, and bring me three taels of sweet-scented osmanthus." Li Yu confessed that these kinds of medicinal materials are common, and the assistant will give them immediately Wrapped up, "You put it away, there are 35 documents in total."

Lin Shiyou asked curiously when he came out of the pharmacy: "This is the medicinal material for making drinks? I'm really looking forward to trying it!"

Li Yu raised his eyebrows: "You can do the same thing, let's go buy some ginger, and then go to the alley of the butcher shop to buy some milk!"

The few kinds of ingredients he bought are common to everyone, but the things he makes are novel. Tomorrow, he will not sell barbecues, but desserts and drinks!

This back alley is full of butcher shops. Li Yu chose a clean one. A woman in an apron was sitting at the door, chopping meat. He asked loudly, "Sister, is this a beef shop? This shop Is there any milk in it?"

The woman looked up and saw two handsome men, and she immediately replied with a smile: "My brother, you have found the right place. My house has milk on the whole street! Our house has a cowshed, and there are many cow sheds. All the big families drink our milk!"

Li Yu was overjoyed, it took no effort to get it!

"Sister, we want to order two barrels of milk, and deliver them to Li Linji on Zhongxin Street tomorrow morning, do you think they can be delivered?"

"Don't worry, my family's business is sure to be successful! First pay the deposit and then pay the rest of the money." The woman is also a businessman, and she is also shrewd in her words. "From now on, you will drink my milk and keep it for the best price. The cheapest!"

Li Yu's deal was finalized, and he tugged on Lin Shiyou's sleeve and said cheerfully: "Sir, pay the money!"

Lin Shiyou went to several shops with Li Yu and ordered a lot of things, but Li Yu kept telling him what he was going to do, it was useless for Lin Shiyou to coax him.He didn't explain until before going to bed: "Tomorrow, Mr. Xiang, we will have sour plum soup with ginger milk and fried tofu!"

When I went to Shop Zilin in the morning, I wrote a menu and hung it at the door, and Li Yu was busy in the back kitchen.

Soak the purchased medicinal materials in water and clean them first, add water to the cauldron and add the medicinal materials to boil together, then turn off the stove and add rock sugar to simmer for a quarter of an hour, the kitchen smells sour and sweet.

Li Yu filtered the raw materials in the pot with gauze and saved them for secondary use. He put the boiled sour plum soup in a large porcelain pot to cool, and then sipped it with cold well water at noon. It tasted even better!

Lin Shiyou cleaned up the lobby and brought the milk to the back kitchen, and saw a bowl of sour plum soup that Li Yu had left for him, "Xiao Yu, this tastes better than that sour juice, taste carefully and have the fragrance of medicinal materials, I think you can drink more of this drink."

Li Yu was pounding ginger, and accidentally rubbed his finger against the corner of his eye, his red eyes were choked up with tears, Lin Shiyou hurriedly took a wet handkerchief to wipe him, and said warmly: "Come on, the milk has been delivered, Xiaoyu, let's boil milk."

"Sir, I need to squeeze it with gauze for a while." Li Yu half-closed his eyes and ordered: "Pour the ginger juice into this big bowl."

Ginger milk is easy to make. Add sugar to hot milk, pour it into a bowl with ginger juice, cover it with a plate, and wait for it to solidify.

The tofu has been cut into pieces, and Li Yu cut the coriander and chili, and added soy sauce, salt, sesame oil, and chili oil to make a cold sauce. The crispy fried tofu still tastes juicy inside. Dip this sauce to relieve the spicy taste. Tired and hungry!

As noon approached, there were more and more people on the street. Li Yu's shop was the busiest these days, and people passing by the shop had to take a look at today's menu, "I haven't tried these three items! Sure enough, there are new dishes. "

"Quickly, go in and have a look, I have to taste it."

Li Yu's shop has a large facade and a bright interior. The booth at the entrance has all these three food items on display. The ginger milk bowl is decorated with sweet-scented osmanthus, and the fried tofu is served with red and spicy dipping sauce. Just looking at it will make you want to eat.

"Brother Yu, is the white one delicious? What is that soup?" A woman asked curiously.

"Sister, it doesn't cost money if it's not good, you'll know it after you try it! This bowl is ginger milk, and that bowl is sour plum soup. It contains licorice and tangerine peel. They are all caught by the pharmacy. It is good for the stomach to clear away heat and relieve summer heat. , everyone, rest assured to drink!"

An old man gritted his teeth and made up his mind, "Brother Yu, give me a bowl of everything, and I'll try it too!"

Li Yu took out the tray and packed it, "Master, take it easy, it's 12 Wen in total."

"It's really not expensive, I'll have these three too!"

"Brother Yu's sour plum soup is delicious, I'll buy another pot to take away later."

Many people bought these three and couldn't help boasting: "The barbecue was delicious a few days ago. I didn't expect the taste of these few to be more unique. It seems that Brother Yu has two skills and is good at everything!"

Lin Shiyou was selling food, and Li Yu was keeping accounts. The two cooperated methodically. They were both ready and not as busy as selling barbecue. They were clearing the tables when an old man came to the counter and said, "I want to buy a bowl of sour plum soup."

Li Yu and Lin Shi met their eyes, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes. Isn't this the old gentleman who sent the letter on the day of the calligraphy competition?

The author says:

small theater:

Brother Yu: "Sanggong bought me a new quilt!"

Lin Shiyou: "It's not because the old one was torn apart by you."

Brother Yu: "Oh? Then don't do sports at night, save the quilt."

Lin Shiyou: "Xiao Yu, I was wrong!"
