Ai Qiaoqiao and Zhang Wu entered Huai'an City.

The two went to Feng Yirun's boss's grocery store first.

Boss Feng was talking to a rich-looking middle-aged man, and when he saw Ai Qiaoqiao and them coming, he smiled and said, "Just talking about you, you have arrived." ”

She pointed to the middle-aged man beside her and said, "This is the shopkeeper of Luo, last time you gave me two pieces of smoked vole jerky I gave to the shopkeeper Luo, when he asked the back kitchen in the store to make it, as a result of a regular customer curiously tasted it, saying that the taste is much better than ordinary bacon, recently many diners have inquired about it, want to order the smoked vole fried jerky." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao and Zhang Wu took the jerky off the flatbed.

"We've made so much in total."

Shopkeeper Luo looked at those vole jerky and seemed to have some regret, "This is too little." ”

"We've only caught so much." Zhang Wu grabbed the back of his head embarrassedly.

"Scarcity is precious." Ai Qiaoqiao smiled and counted the jerky.

When Shopkeeper Luo heard this, he couldn't help but look at Ai Qiaoqiao twice.

"This girl is the Ai Qiaoqiao I talked about." Boss Feng introduced to Shopkeeper Luo, "Good cooking skills. ”

Shopkeeper Luo couldn't help but look Ai Qiaoqiao up and down, he watched Ai Qiaoqiao count the jerky, pile up thirty-five pieces of vole meat in one place, and throw out four pieces separately outside.

"What do you mean by that?" Shopkeeper Luo asked.

Ai Qiaoqiao was unhurried, "How much does Shopkeeper Luo plan to charge for our vole jerky?" ”

Shopkeeper Luo smiled, "I'm familiar with Boss Feng, we have negotiated the price, thirty yuan for a vole jerky, I want all of you." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Wu bit his tongue directly excitedly.

A pound of eggs costs 12 yuan, and they can sell a vole jerky for 30 yuan......

Zhang Wu pinched himself in disbelief, and he grinned in pain.

Ai Qiaoqiao was very calm, "I can only sell you thirty-five, and I will give the other four to Boss Feng, she will help us sell them, we can't be too greedy." ”

Shopkeeper Luo laughed, "Okay, good, that's right, Boss Feng really didn't see the wrong person, your girl's temper is just what I want." ”

Seeing that Ai Qiaoqiao was so persistent, Boss Feng did not shirk again and accepted the last four vole jerky.

Shopkeeper Luo asked his subordinates to count the money, "Thirty-five vole jerky, a total of consistent money, plus fifty wen." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao accepted the money and thanked Boss Feng and Shopkeeper Luo.

"If there is such a rarity in the future, you will come directly to the full building." Shopkeeper Luo was satisfied and went back with vole jerky.

Zhang Wu watched Ai Qiaoqiao carefully put away the money and put it in the cloth pocket.

"Qiaoqiao, you can slap me." Zhang Wu whispered.

Ai Qiaoqiao smiled and really raised her hand to slap him.

Zhang Wu grinned, "It hurts, it seems that I'm not dreaming, we have to catch more voles next year." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao did not agree with his proposal, "In addition to vole meat, we can also sell other things, besides, if vole meat is sold well in the full house, there will be others who also want to catch voles, and then we can buy voles directly from them." ”

"Won't they make their own bacon, how can they sell it to us?" Zhang Wu asked puzzled.

Ai Qiaoqiao smiled mysteriously, "Because they can't make our taste, and the vole meat in their hands won't be able to sell at that time, they will naturally think of other ways to sell the live voles directly to us." ”

The more Zhang Wu listened, the more amazing he felt, "Qiaoqiao, you know so much." ”

"My dad taught me that." Speaking of her father, Ai Qiaoqiao was quite proud, "My father knows a lot, but it's a pity that you haven't met him." ”

The two collected the money, thanked Boss Feng and went to the market.

"Let's eat in the city at noon today." Ai Qiaoqiao proposed.

Zhang Wu was a little nervous, he had never been in a restaurant in the city.

"What do we eat?"

Ai Qiaoqiao asked Lan in the car, "Mother, let's go eat oily noodles." ”

Lan nodded.

Ai Qiaoqiao went to a small noodle restaurant with Zhang Wu, ordered three bowls of oily noodles, and asked for a small plate of spiced peanuts.

The noodles are piled with chili flakes and chopped green onions, and boiling oil is poured into the bowl, and the noodles are mixed with leek flowers and bean sprouts and other green vegetables.

The noodles are eaten with the sour hemp taste of rice vinegar and pepper oil.

Zhang Wu was sweating all over his food, and he was addicted.

"I finally know why the rich people keep going to the restaurant." Zhang Wudao.

"Why?" Ai Qiaoqiao asked.

"Because the noodles in the restaurant are so delicious!"

Ai Qiaoqiao couldn't laugh, "Do you think that rich people come to eat noodles every day, they order delicacies from the mountains and seas, chicken, duck and fish, and they also have high-quality wine." ”

"How do you know?"

"Because my family used to run a tavern." Ai Qiaoqiao said, "I have helped in the tavern since I was a child, sometimes as a running hall, and when I was older, I helped my father cook in the back kitchen. ”

"It would be nice when we could live like this." Zhang Wu drank all the soup in the bowl.

"Sooner or later, there will be such a day." Ai Qiaoqiao reassured.

"But my family still owes usury, and the house and land are gone, so I just pointed to my father to go into the mountains to hunt...... When will we pay off the debt. ”

"Brother Wu, don't worry, there will always be a way, my father used to say that there is no endless road." Ai Qiaoqiao said.

After lunch, the two pulled the flatbed cart to Yicaotang.

Ai Qiaoqiao and the Lan clan knelt down after seeing the shopkeeper Xu.

Shopkeeper Xu hurriedly stepped forward to support the Lan family, "Madame, I just accepted the order of the owner to go, and I can't afford to accept Madame's gift." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao got up with the Lan clan and said, "Childe is here, I still want to thank him." ”

Shopkeeper Xu was embarrassed, "Childe has not seen a guest recently, but I can pass it on for you." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao thanked him again, "There is a shopkeeper of Lao Xu." ”

Shopkeeper Xu went to the backyard, and came back after a short time and said, "Childe said, if you want to kowtow, you won't be spared, it's better to cook him a few specialty dishes." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao smiled, "This is easy to do, please take the shopkeeper to the kitchen." ”

Shopkeeper Xu arranged Lan and Zhang Wu first, and then took Ai Qiaoqiao to the kitchen in the backyard.

Hearing that the rain was burning the fire there, she was very happy to see Ai Qiaoqiao come in, "Miss Qiaoqiao, I heard that you are coming to cook for your son?" ”

"It's a thank you gift." Ai Qiaoqiao smiled and said, "Childe refuses to accept my big gift, and the only thing I can do is cooking." ”

She walked around the kitchen and looked at what ingredients were available.

Listening to the rain reminded her in a low voice, "Childe has been in a bad mood recently, he eats very little at every meal, and sometimes the meals we send in will be returned intact, what is the way for Miss Qiaoqiao to let our son-in-law eat more?" ”

Ai Qiaoqiao recalled the day and night when she was gone.

At that time, she was in a hurry to go back to save the Lan family, so she didn't pay too much attention to Ye Li's face, and now that she thinks about it, Ye Li's face at that time was a bit like she was recovering from a serious illness.

"I wonder what injuries your son has suffered?" Ai Qiaoqiao lowered her voice and asked about the rain.

Listening to the rain, he pursed his lips in embarrassment.

"You can only use the right materials if you tell me the truth, don't worry, Gongzi has a great kindness to me, and I won't say it." Ai Qiaoqiao said solemnly.

Tingyu looked out of the door, leaned into Ai Qiaoqiao's ear and whispered, "The tendons and veins of Childe's wrist have been broken, even if the trauma is healed, there is no way to recover the tendons, and Childe's wrist is now weak and he can't hold a needle...... Otherwise, he can heal himself by his own ideas......"

Ai Qiaoqiao was secretly frightened.

Those who pursued and killed him did not want his life, but they singled out and severed his tendons...... Legend has it that the three-shot life-saving miracle doctor had no way to heal himself, and he must have been very annoyed in his heart.

It's a really vicious way.

Ai Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and thought for a moment, "In this way, the ingredients you have here are not suitable, and I want to go out and buy something else." ”

Listening to the rain said, "If Miss Qiaoqiao needs anything, just mention it, I'll buy it now." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao made a list.

Tingyu looked at the list and was confused: "Mustard seeds...... What does Miss Qiaoqiao want to do with seeds? "Didn't you say you wanted to cook, why didn't you want vegetables, but asked him to go to the seed store.

Ai Qiaoqiao grinned, "You can just go and buy it back." ”
