"Xiao Zhang, wait for me". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The boy of the Zhang family looked back, but saw that Ning Shaofeng was also trotting after him, he quickly stopped and said happily: "It's Engong, I saw you talking to Master Yu just now, and I didn't dare to disturb, so I left first, I don't know what Engong is looking for me?" β
"Oh, it's okay, I just want to talk to you, oh, this money is for you."
Ning Shaofeng said, and then put the copper coin he had just gotten from everyone in Xiao Zhang's hand.
"This~~~ Engong, how did you help me recover the stolen money, I would never dare to collect this money again", Xiao Zhang said with a worried face.
Ning Shaofeng was secretly funny, the people in this year are really simple, only a few dollars, which made this kid so frightened, and then he smiled and said: "Okay, you just take it, I can't use these little money, don't call me Engong in the future, my surname is Ning, you can call me Brother Ning."
After listening to his words, Xiao Zhang was secretly happy in his heart, not only did he recover the stolen money today, but also got some more, he was really lucky, he turned his head to look at Ning Shaofeng, but saw that he was dignified, dressed extraordinarily, and had outstanding intelligence, he must not be an ordinary person, he was a small ordinary person, if he could make friends with a character like Ning Shaofeng, it would be a great honor.
How did he know that just yesterday Ning Shaofeng was still a little flower in tattered clothes, but Ning Shaofeng also had great luck and befriended Yu Wei.
"Brother Ning, thank you for today's incident", Zhang Xiaofan said sincerely.
Ning Shaofeng smiled slightly, looking at this Xiao Fan's happy appearance, he was also happy in his heart, "Brother Xiao Fan doesn't have to be polite, by the way, your family is doing this glutinous business?" β
Listening to his words, Zhang Xiaofan sighed, "My family originally sold steamed buns, but our family of three was unable to make a living by selling steamed buns, so my father remembered to sell some glutinous rice cakes on the street, and my mother continued to sell steamed buns at home."
Ning Shaofeng was overjoyed, wouldn't it be better to sell steamed buns? It's just such a big Chang'an City, even if the business is not good, it won't be able to go on, is it because the buns are not doing well?
Then he said with a smile: "Brother Xiaofan, I'm afraid I'm joking, isn't the family ready to marry you a daughter-in-law, so I want to sell glutinous rice cakes to make more dowry money?" β
Hearing his words, Zhang Xiaofan scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Brother Ning, you are really smart, in fact, in fact, my family is really ready to marry my daughter-in-law."
Ning Shaofeng smiled, this Zhang Xiaofan looks eighteen or nineteen years old, and he has indeed reached the age of marriage in this year, if he was born in a rich family, I am afraid he would get married earlier.
The two chatted while walking, and unconsciously came to the door of Zhang Xiaofan's house, and Ning Shaofeng also walked in.
"Mother, mother, a guest has come to the house."
Zhang Xiaofan's mother is a woman who looks to be in her forties, and there are traces of white hair on her head, but logically speaking, she should not be so old, I am afraid that her family is poor and tired, so she is a little old.
"Who is it, Xiaofan".
The woman approached and took a look, and found that Ning Shaofeng looked very extraordinary, where was it that they could make friends with such people, so she hurriedly pulled Zhang Xiaofan aside and asked, and Zhang Xiaofan told her mother what had just happened.
Taking advantage of this gap, Ning Shaofeng looked around carefully, although Zhang Xiaofan's family is not rich, the house is not small, in addition to a faΓ§ade at the door, there is a small yard behind, at this moment there is a large steamer in front of the door steaming, and it is naturally steamed buns.
"Mother, Brother Ning is very good, don't worry."
Zhang Xiaofan's mother was afraid that Ning Shaofeng was born noble, for fear of accidentally offending him, and she had been trembling since he entered the house and did not dare to talk to him.
Ning Shaofeng's heart was sour, thinking of his mother, he was also born poor since he was a child, why didn't his mother live so carefully, alas, pity the hearts of parents in the world.
"Aunt Zhang, don't be afraid, in fact, I am also from an ordinary family, and now I come to Chang'an City just to visit relatives, come, you sit down and talk first."
Helped Aunt Zhang to sit down on the stool, in order to ease the atmosphere, Ning Shaofeng said with a smile: "By the way, Aunt Zhang, I'm a little hungry, can you give me your buns?" β
Aunt Zhang didn't have a reason not to give it, so she quickly stood up, took out a hot bun from the steamer and handed it to Ning Shaofeng, and then she was afraid that Ning Shaofeng would dislike her hands for dirty, so she hurriedly put the bun down, and didn't know how to open her mouth for a while.
Ning Shaofeng smiled, picked up the bun that Aunt Zhang put down again, and took a bite gently.
After this mouthful, Ning Shaofeng's eyes lit up, this is a meat bun, not only has a soft and smooth taste, but also tastes very good, how can this kind of bun not make money?
"Auntie, your buns are so delicious."
Aunt Zhang was flattered, and hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Childe said that he laughed, if you like to eat, then eat more, I won't charge your money."
Ning Shaofeng's old face flushed, and then he said embarrassedly: "Eh~~~ Aunt Zhang, I won't tell you, in fact, I didn't bring any money when I went out, you just want to collect my money, and I don't have the money to pay you."
"Haha, Brother Ning, you can eat with confidence, how can I ask for your money." Zhang Xiaofan said with a smile on the side.
Aunt Zhang couldn't help laughing when she heard his words, and then said: "Yes, Ning Gongzi, you can eat as much as you want, you have helped our family Xiaofan so much today, we don't know how to thank you."
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room eased down, and Aunt Zhang was no longer so restrained, a few people chatted a few words from time to time, and before they knew it, it was early in the afternoon, Zhang Xiaofan and his father also sold out of glutinous rice cakes, and pushed a small stall and walked back slowly.
"Father, you're back, this is Brother Ning, I just made my friend", seeing his father coming back, Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly ran out with a smile and took over the stall in his hand and said.
Ning Shaofeng also got up and said, "Uncle Zhang is good."
When Uncle Zhang heard his words, he looked at him carefully, and he was also shocked, his appearance was quite similar to Aunt Zhang.
It was Zhang Xiaofan, who saw his father's appearance, smiled proudly, and then told him about the noon incident.
After all, Uncle Zhang is a man, and his bearing is much bigger than that of Aunt Zhang, after listening to Zhang Xiaofan's words, he was not too restrained, he thanked Ning Shaofeng with a smile, and then told Aunt Zhang to cook, and he had to stay with Ning Shaofeng for dinner at home.
Being able to get acquainted with this family, Ning Shaofeng felt very cordial in his heart, and he had some ideas in his heart, so he didn't shirk and stayed at Zhang Xiaofan's house.
"Uncle Zhang, I see that your buns are doing well, but the business is not very good, why is this?". Ning Shaofeng said the doubts in his heart.
"Hahahaha, Ning Gongzi laughed, no matter how delicious it is, it's just a bun, and others can still eat it as a meal because it's delicious?" Listening to Ning Shaofeng's words, Uncle Zhang burst out laughing.
The so-called business is not good, in fact, it is just Ning Shaofeng's own opinion, for Uncle Zhang, their steamed bun business is not bad, compared to other steamed buns in the city, I don't know how much better, but this steamed bun is small and naturally profitable, how can it be possible to make a fortune with this?
Ning Shaofeng disagreed, and then said: "Why can't you eat it as a meal, isn't it best to eat steamed buns early?" β
"No, no, it's the most convenient to eat flatbread early, the flatbread can be prepared the night before, and it doesn't hurt to eat it cold the next day, but this bun is to be eaten while it's hot, who would go out early in the morning to buy a few buns? Isn't that a toss-up?"
Ning Shaofeng was happy in his heart, this was exactly what he thought, if he could eat hot buns, who would go to nibble on that cold flatbread?
Then he smiled and said to Uncle Zhang: "Uncle Zhang, I have a way to make your bun sales soar, I wonder if you are interested?" β
