After a while, a few young people finally came over curiously. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

They looked at Dongmei and asked, "Sister, why did you move out of the kitchen and make dumplings in the open air?"

In which era, in this remote Loess Plateau town, everyone has never seen a restaurant selling food so closely.

Especially Dongmei, selling dumplings while being everyone's bread dumplings was a local innovation at that time.

Hearing someone ask, Dongmei hurriedly put down the dumplings she was wrapping in her hand and said, "I'm selling dumplings, do you eat dumplings, there are leek egg fillings and big meat cabbage fillings." “

Hearing Dongmei selling dumplings, one of the young people drooled and said, "Sister, how much is your dumpling?"

Dongmei rubbed the noodles on her hands and said, "The meat filling is five cents a catty, and the vegetarian filling is three cents a catty." “

Hearing that the dumplings were not expensive, several young people immediately sat down and whispered: "Sister, this dumpling looks thin and has a big filling, it should be good, let's try it first." “

"Yes, the eldest sister is not only good at this dumpling, you see the eldest sister is also very hygienic, the kitchen utensils are clean, even the tables, chairs and benches are spotless, which is much more hygienic than the canteen of the unit. “

At that time, everyone was looking for saturation and good eating, so the requirements for hygiene and taste were not strict, so ordinary restaurants and canteens were very dirty.

But Dongmei is a person who loves cleanliness very much, and she keeps her stall very clean and spotless.

After a few young people discussed, they pointed to Dongmei's freshly wrapped meat-filled dumplings and said, "Sister, just this meat-filled, you can give us a pound first." “

Hearing this, Dongmei was very happy, she didn't expect this first business to come so easily, much easier than when she sold popsicles.

While putting dumplings in the pot, Dongmei happily replied to a few young people: "Okay, you wait a minute, it'll be fine right away." ”

After a while, the hot dumplings are out of the pot.

Dongmei brought a plate full of dumplings to several people, and helped a few people mix the dipped juice one by one, and put them in front of them one by one.

Moreover, the careful Dongmei was afraid that a few people would choke on eating, so she scooped a bowl of noodle soup for one person and put it in front of her.

Before everyone ate, they were moved by Dongmei's thoughtful service.

At that time, in the remote Loess Plateau, the service industry was just emerging, so everyone had no concept that the customer was God.

Everyone's service is generally cold and stubborn, eat if you like, don't eat and get out.

However, Dongmei treats guests as thoughtfully as her own children.

Not only does she bring you the dumplings, but she also mixes the juice for you, and she also provides hot noodle soup, and most importantly, Dongmei is smiling the whole time, which is a hundred times more comfortable than the waiters in the restaurant and canteen.

A few young people kept saying thank you while eating dumplings.

They sighed that they had been eating out for so long, but here in Dongmei, they felt the warmth of home.

"These dumplings are so delicious, just like the dumplings my mom made. “

"The service of this eldest sister was so good, she took care of us like the sister next door. “

"After that, we came to this sister's place every day to eat dumplings. “

Several young people eat dumplings and constantly praise Dongmei's dumplings and service.

Dongmei was very happy to hear the guests' praise for herself and the affirmation of the dumplings.

She has a sense of accomplishment and is proud to be a family member who can serve everyone.

People passing by around saw a few young people eating dumplings, and then looked at Dongmei's dumpling stall, which was simply a family kitchen, and everyone came over to taste Dongmei's dumplings.

Once there are more guests, Dongmei is a little too busy, after all, this is the first time she sells food, Dongmei is in a hurry, very embarrassed.

At this time, Taotao and Nana happened to come back from school, and Dongmei hurriedly called them over.

Because Nana was too young, Dongmei was afraid that she would burn her, so she left Taotao to help her.

Taotao, who is already in the fifth grade, is like a little man, under the command of Dongmei, she is serving rice and washing dishes, which is very effective.

With the help of Taotao, Dongmei gradually regained her composure, and she followed the steps, ordering dumplings and mixing juices for each guest.

Soon, Dongmei sold out all the dumplings that had been wrapped before, but the number of customers continued unabated.

No way, Dongmei can only settle the guests to sit down and wait for a while, while she makes dumplings and makes dumplings at the same time, and she is very busy.

And the guests, who have a good temperament, are not in a hurry, and slowly wait for the dumplings to be made by Dongmei, and then eat the dumplings.

And those who are anxious turn their heads and leave, complaining that Dongmei's cooking speed is too slow.

In less than a noon, Dongmei sold all the dumplings she had prepared before.

At this time, diners who have not eaten dumplings even hope that Dongmei will get some dumpling wrappers and dumpling fillings to come out and continue to sell.

Dongmei reluctantly apologized to the customer and said: "I'm sorry, because it's the first time I'm selling dumplings, I can't figure out the amount of food everyone, so the dumplings prepared are a little less, and tomorrow, I will prepare more dumplings, and I will definitely meet everyone's requirements." “

Hearing this, the diners reluctantly left.

After selling the dumplings, he sent away the diners, and helped Dongmei with a hungry stomach that was busy at noon.

He looked at Dongmei with expectant eyes and said, "Mom, the guests are gone, it's our turn to eat dumplings." “

Hearing that the child wanted to eat dumplings, Dongmei felt very guilty, she really shouldn't have sold the last few dumplings, but should have left some for the child.

She said to Taotao apologetically: "Mom sold out all the dumplings, shall we eat noodles at noon?"

Hearing this, Tao Tao said disappointedly: "Yesterday I heard you say that you want to sell dumplings, Nana and I thought we could eat dumplings today, but I didn't expect to eat noodles today?"

Dongmei smiled awkwardly, cut the remaining dumpling wrappers into small pieces, and then put them in the pot and made noodles for the children to eat.

Compared with the past, after Dongmei made the noodles for the children, she mixed a bowl of juice for each of the two children, which was called "dipping the water".

The two children were already very hungry, and they dipped the juice in the face of Dongmei's dough made from the leftover dumpling wrappers, and ate very deliciously and happily.

When Dongmei and the two children finished eating and began to pack up their things, it was already half past one, and it was about to be time for the children to go to school.

Dongmei told the two children not to help them clean up their things, but to go back to the house to take a nap and concentrate on their studies in the afternoon.

Tao Tao rejected his mother's suggestion, he felt that he was not sleepy at all, and if he let himself take a nap at noon, it would be torture for himself.

Nana, on the other hand, yawned and went home to sleep.

Tao Tao is a child who doesn't like to sleep, and almost every day at noon, he spends his nap time lying in bed with his eyes open.

And today he doesn't have to be stuck in bed to take a nap, he feels very happy.

Seeing that Dongmei and Taotao were about to finish packing up their things, Jia Yuqi's mother and Ding Jian's mother, who got up to work, happened to pass by Dongmei's stall.

They looked at Dongmei's slumped body and said, "This woman must not have sold a single dumpling, otherwise how could she toss until this time to close the stall." “

Ding Jian's mother nodded and said, "I really don't know what these family members have to do all day, what are they tossing?"

Hearing this, Dongmei turned around, looked at the two women with a smile and said, "May I ask you two, do you want to eat dumplings, I'm sorry, my dumplings have all been sold, if you want to eat, come back tomorrow." “

After saying that, Dongmei turned around and continued to clean up her stall.

Hearing this, Jia Yuqi's mother and Ding Jian's mother were stunned, you look at me, I look at you, and then said, "No, this family's dumplings are all sold out?"

Gong Peng's mother, who was pushing the freezer and selling cold drinks not far away, happened to pass by, she stopped, helped Dongmei and said: "No problem, Dongmei's dumplings have all been sold out in less than an hour, and many people haven't eaten them yet." “

Hearing this, Jia Yuqi's mother and Ding Jian's mother left in disgrace.

Seeing the two women leaving, Gong Peng's mother angrily snorted at their backs and said, "Isn't it just a formal job, what's the big deal, and I look down on our family." “

Dongmei finished packing up her things, held her head high and said to Gong Peng's mother: "Our good women don't fight with their rotten women, they workers, they don't know how to be motivated, they mess around all day long, eat big pot meals, and sooner or later they will be surpassed by our hard-working family members." “

Gong Peng's mother nodded unconvinced and said: "That's it, what's wrong with them having a job, isn't it just a dozen yuan a day, not as much money as me as a popsicle seller, let alone compared to you, a dumpling seller." “

Dongmei touched the bulging money bag and said: "Yes, so we, women who have no jobs, must not be inferior when we are looked down upon and despised by these women who have jobs, we must hold our chests up, hold our heads high, look at their eyes proudly, and tell them that although we do not have formal jobs, we are working hard, contributing to society, and becoming rich through hard work." “

Gong Peng's mother clenched her fists and said, "That's it, you and I, let's work together to fight for the thousands of family members in the yard who have no jobs, so that they dare to despise us again." “

When Dongmei got home, she opened the purse on her apron and counted the money, and she was surprised to find that she had earned twenty yuan in just one hour selling dumplings at noon.

This is more than selling popsicles for two days and selling medicine all day.

Moreover, compared to selling popsicles and medicines, I am a little better at selling food.

Although Dongmei was tired, she was smiling and lying on the bed, looking forward to her future business and thinking about how to expand it step by step.

Having learned the lesson of selling dumplings at noon, Dongmei was ready to wrap all the dumplings a day in advance, and when she went out at noon the next day, she just sold dumplings, otherwise it would be too late.

However, how can you keep the dumplings wrapped today fresh?

In that era when there were no quick-frozen dumplings on the Loess Plateau, Dongmei racked her brains and finally came up with a way.

That is to go out and buy a refrigerator and come back, freeze all the dumplings wrapped today, and when you sell them the next day, you can go directly to the pot, which not only saves time, but also fresh.

Dongmei said that she would do it, ran to the bank and withdrew a thousand yuan, rushed to the county's electrical city, bought a cheap refrigerator and shipped it back home.

Due to the cramped kitchen of Brocade, Dongmei simply put the refrigerator in the living room.

Now, the living room is really occupied.

Dongmei looked at the TV, refrigerator, sofa, and coffee table in the living room, and couldn't help but sigh, unconsciously, so many furniture and electrical appliances were added to the home, which I couldn't think of in the past.

Now it seems that there is no shortage of household appliances in this home, and the days of Ben Xiaokang are just around the corner.
