Chapter 19: Rough Thoughts
It's night, and it's silent.
Su Wanyu couldn't sleep, so she got up and walked to the window.
The night was low and the stars were shining. It's just that I don't know if this eternal starry sky is the same as what Su Wanyu saw in her previous life.
During the day, all kinds of encounters with Mrs. Su reminded Su Wanyu of missing her family in her previous life. This kind of longing tightly wrapped Su Wanyu and made her unavoidable.
She remembered when she was a child, when her father dropped her off at school, and softly watched her walk into the school yard and waved goodbye to her.
She remembered her mother's slightly rough hands, tied her pigtails, and then looked at her carefully, saying that it was so beautiful.
There is also a big-eyed little brother, who called her sister for the first time.
Relatives are the most fundamental support for a person's life and the world.
Parents are the warmest harbor, no matter where she is, she knows in her heart that there are always two people there, watching her, caring for her, tolerating her, anytime, anywhere, waiting for her to come back.
As if forever and ever, she could throw herself into this warm embrace as long as she wanted.
All this is a thing of the past.
"Mom and Dad, you have to take care of your health and live a good life." Su Wanyu said in her heart: "I will also be fine." β

"Ding~~, whoa~~" A blue-glazed porcelain cup turned over on the table, and the dark purple juice mixed with crushed ice poured out.
"Ahh Su Wanyu exclaimed lightly.
Chun Tao on the side immediately picked up the large pieces of crushed ice by hand and put them back into the porcelain cup. But some of the ice slag melted immediately, and some of the ice slag was too small to pick up.
Chun Tao whispered, "It's a pity", while wiping the table clean with a cloth.
Su Wanyu saw Chun Tao's painful look on her face, and said with a smile: "Sister Chun Tao, it's okay, don't feel distressed." β
Yesterday, Su Wanyu successfully experimented with the method of ice making. When I got up today, I came to the stove and tried to make the ice drink and cold food of the Great Qi Dynasty with great interest.
When it comes to cold drinks, the easiest thing to do is the fruit juice and sorbet that Wu's mother mentioned yesterday.
The cup that I just turned over was Su Wanyu's homemade grape sorbet.
Grape sorbet is made by peeling the grapes, pressing out the juice, and then mixing the juice with crushed ice. It's very simple.
Su Wanyu put the finished grape sorbet on the table, turned around, and overturned the newly made sorbet on the table, which made Chun Tao feel distressed for a while.
"This ice is homemade, there are a lot of them, and this grape is not expensive, Aunt Wu said that there are a lot of grapes this year, and they are sold cheaply." Su Wanyu said.
Chun Tao smiled when she thought about it, and she said, "Well, yes, Miss." Miss, you're so good that you can even make ice. β
"Not really." Mother Wu was wiping the stove, and when she heard the words, she stopped what she was doing, turned back to Su Wanyu and Chun Tao at the table and said: "Miss is like a fairy daughter from the sky, all of a sudden, in these dog days, making ice, I have lived a lifetime, and I didn't open my eyes until yesterday." β
Su Wanyu was a little embarrassed by Mother Wu and Chun Tao's praise, and hurriedly said, "I just happen to know this method." β
Isn't that the reason? She traveled through with the memories of her previous life, and only because she needed to study for exams that she knew this method of ice making.
This ice-making method was discovered by the ancestors of the world where she lived in her previous life, and it had nothing to do with her Su Wanyu.
Because she thought of the ice-making method before, she had a little sense of complacency and superiority in her heart, but Su Wanyu was no longer a girl in the fourteenth or fifteenth five-year years after all, not to mention that she had always been relatively calm, which calmed her down.
She still has a lot to do to survive in this Great Qi Dynasty.
"Miss, yesterday, you said that we were going to open an ice drink and cold food restaurant, is it true?" Chun Tao asked.
"Well, yes, we have to pay off our debts and live, so naturally we have to find a livelihood that can make money." Su Wanyu said, she saw Chun Tao's puzzled face, so she asked, "What's the matter, Sister Chun Tao." β
"Miss, although Chun Tao doesn't know how to open a store, whatever Miss says, I will definitely do it. Miss, do you have any statutes now? "Spring Peach Road.
"I don't have a detailed charter yet, but I have some rough ideas, this ice drink and cold food restaurant is open in the faΓ§ade of our house.
The price of cold drinks and cold food is so expensive, and our store must be very beautiful. There are several sets of tables and chairs for guests to sit comfortably while drinking cold drinks.
Under the large window, there is a large counter. For those who don't want to enter the store, they can take it home by buying a cold drink at the window. Su Wanyu said.
She remembered the high-end dessert shop in her previous life, which was luxurious and comfortable, and it was hard to find one in the summer. Outside the counter, people who buy cold drinks often form long queues.
"En" Chun Tao nodded and said, "I think our cold food restaurant must be very good, but if you want to build such a store, I'm afraid you will have to use a lot of silver to buy any ornaments."
"yes." Su Wanyu said.
She only has a little bit of the price of the Great Qi Dynasty, and she has not calculated how much silver it costs to open such a store, and she is not sure about it, but it will not be very cheap.
She still has a dozen taels of silver on hand, and she doesn't know if it's enough.
If all the money left is spent, this ice drink shop will be a successful business, and it will be really stressful.
But after thinking about it, three months later, they were already facing the problem of 800 taels of debt due. Not opening a store is just a three-month probation, and there is still a chance to survive when it opens. Thinking of this, she was also relieved.
She said, "I still have some silver here, let's try to make it better." Sister Chun Tao, when the time comes, you can go with me to Dingjia?"
"yes, okay." Spring Peach Road.
"On the west side of the city, there is a carpenter's shop, and I heard that the carpenter's shop was made by a master who has been a carpenter for decades, and everyone called him a wood master.
I heard that his carpenter did a good job. In the west of the city, all the important carpenter jobs were asked to do it. Mother Wu said, "Miss, you can go there and have a look." β
"Okay, Aunt Wu is really a jack of all trades in our family." Su Wanyu said with a smile.
"Miss, make fun of me." Mother Wu said angrily.
After a pause, Mother Wu said again: "Speaking of which, our western alley boundary is remote, unlike the Guiyun Pavilion and the Drunken Night Building, which are all in the lively realm at the top of the roof." Guests are not easy to find here. β
Su Wanyu's west alley is located in a residential area in the west of the city, and it is quiet and convenient to live here on weekdays. But opening a cold food restaurant is a different story.
Su Wanyu knows that for the catering industry, the market is very important. If the location of the store is good, business will naturally come. Otherwise, business will be greatly affected.
She has ice, a scarce resource of the Great Qi Dynasty. It's hot now, and it's the hottest season for cold drinks. But the aroma of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, how can this small shop in the west alley attract people?
