Chapter 24: Timely Rain Zhang Tieniu
"Because donkeys have a stubborn temper, they are called stubborn donkeys." Li Qingyou patiently explained: "In this way, it will think that it is moving forward, instead of turning in circles." ”
Later, Li Laohan told her that the stubborn donkey's temper was played by Li Qingyou himself.
"But why didn't my sister blindfold it?" Ah Di pointed to the carrot hanging in front of the donkey's head, his big eyes full of curiosity.
Li Qingyou was also helpless in this regard.
If the donkey is blindfolded, it will have to be driven with a whip to pull the grind, it was injured before, and it is an old donkey, Li Qingyou really can't bear it.
And today the donkey didn't know what kind of stubbornness he had committed, even if he was beaten with a whip, he refused to leave, and she racked her brains to come up with such a solution.
"My sister told you that in many cases, inducements are more effective than threats." Li Qingyou has a lot of words.
Ah Di nodded in agreement, and looked at Li Qingyou with little stars in his eyes, "Sister is amazing." ”
"Of course, if I'm your sister." Li Qing is bubbling beautifully.
Although the donkey is old, it is also quite powerful, and it quickly grinds the soy milk.
Li Qingyou cleaned up the soy milk, wiped the grinding plate clean, put the soy milk in the pot to boil, then scooped it into the mold, ordered the brine, and waited for a while for the tofu to be formed.
In order to reward the donkeys who worked hard all morning, Li Qingyou also deliberately added some more bean cakes to the forage, and the rest was divided equally between the pigs and chickens.
Li Qingyou milked the donkey milk again, mixed it with soy milk, and the two had a beautiful breakfast with sugar vegetable buns.
With the lessons learned last time, Ah Di deliberately marked the jar of sugar this time, and he put the sugar himself, so the salty milk tea incident did not happen again.
After making the tofu, the next thing is to push it to the street to sell, Li Qingyou told his brother not to go out before going out, "Sister will be back soon, you have to be good." ”
Brother nodded obediently.
The Li family has a wheelbarrow, which was used by Li Laohan to sell tofu in the past, because he felt sorry for the donkey and was reluctant to pull the cart after working all morning.
However, the seemingly light wheelbarrow is not the same thing in Li Qingyou's hands, it is heavier, and it is difficult to grasp the balance, the empty car is barely enough, and it is very difficult to stack a few plates of tofu on it.
I saw the wheelbarrow swaying from side to side, and I almost dropped the tofu to the ground.
Just when Li Qingyou was worried, Zhang Tieniu came in time, and without saying a word, he took the wheelbarrow and pushed it forward.
"In the future, this job will be handed over to me, and you can't push it from a little girl's house." Zhang Tieniu cracked a mouthful of big white teeth, and smiled without seeing his eyebrows.
He got up early in the morning and stayed nearby, just so that he could catch a glimpse of her in the morning, and it would be better if he could say a few words.
Li Qingyou hesitated, glanced in the direction of Zhang's house, a little worried about being seen by Tie Niu Niang, until Zhang Tieniu's urging voice came from behind him, and he shook his head and had to follow quickly.
Zhang Tieniu kept sending Li Qingyou to the place where Li Laohan used to sell tofu before leaving, "I'll go to the yamen first, don't be in a hurry to leave after selling out, I'll come over at noon to help you push the car back." ”
After saying that, he ran away quickly.
The old man and his wife have been selling tofu in Qingshan County for more than ten years, and they have long made a reputation, and the tofu of the Li family is big and tender, and it is sold all the time before noon.
Li Qingyou also thought that this would be the case, however, it backfired.
A piece of tofu was not sold in the morning, and many people took a detour to see her here, and even the sellers of fried cakes and roasted sweet potatoes on the left and right were not in their original positions, far away from her.
Looking at the people around her pointing at her, Li Qing was angry and didn't come anywhere, but she couldn't do anything, and people didn't bother her.
At noon, Zhang Tieniu came, looking at the full plates of tofu and being stunned, and then looking at the people around him, what else did he not understand?
"Sister Qingyou, don't worry, eat something first, and I'll help you sell it later." Zhang Tieniu looked at the chaos stall next to him and pulled Li Qingyou over.
The tofu truck was still here, Li Qingyou refused to go, and was pulled away by Zhang Tieniu, "Just a few steps away, just stare at the point." ”
Li Qingyou was really tired after standing all morning, and followed Zhang Tieniu over, "Say okay first, I'll invite you to eat." ”
It's been a morning trouble for him, and you can't take advantage of him anymore.
Zhang Tieniu didn't insist, as soon as the two walked to the chaos stall, they listened to a group of children behind them fighting, and the moment they turned around, they saw these children throwing sand on the tofu.
"Stop, little bastard, get out of here." Zhang Tieniu ran back quickly and drove away a group of children, but unfortunately the two plates of tofu on it still couldn't be sold.
Li Qingyou almost cried angrily, and he was busy all morning.
At this point, I finally felt the damage caused by ruining my reputation, but there was nothing I could do, and the children had already run away.
Then she looked at the pastry sellers opposite, and the stalls on the left and right, all looking at her with gloating eyes, because she was still called by her uncle and uncle.
With the previous lesson, Li Qingyou didn't dare to leave easily, Zhang Tieniu ran to buy a few buns and came back, and the two of them ate in the tofu cart.
Looking at Li Qingyou's lonely eyes, Zhang Tieniu was distressed, and thought about it: "Sister Qingyou, don't worry, I'll keep it and help you sell the rest later." ”
Li Qingyou looked at him in amazement, and shook his head again, "Don't bother you, maybe it will be sold in the afternoon." ”
Although she didn't believe it herself.
Zhang Tieniu didn't say anything more, he had already made up his mind in his heart, and when he finished eating, he asked Li Qingyou to wait here, and he pushed the rest of the tofu and left.
After a while, he came back with an empty cart and gave her the money from selling tofu.
"How did you do that?" Li Qingyou was surprised and delighted, this efficiency was higher than that of Li Laohan before.
Zhang Tieniu scratched his head and smiled innocently, "I sent it to the Shengji Restaurant at the corner of the street." ”
Anyway, he is also a person from the yamen, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant does not dare to offend easily.
Li Qing took it easy and thanked him again.
Zhang Tieniu helped push the tofu cart back to Li's house, looking at the two plates of dirty tofu, he also felt sorry for Li Qingyou, and he was even more afraid that she would get angry, "Sister Qingyou, you will sell it on the street tomorrow, and I will send it directly to Shengji, and it will save trouble." ”
Li Qingyou smiled, "That's what kind of business, it's not easy for people to do business, if you can't sell it, you will lose money." ”
It is impossible for all the guests to eat tofu.
Besides, he was anxious and sued the yamen, but he made trouble for Zhang Tieniu.
"Then send a few more, and one can be sold out after all." Zhang Tieniu didn't care, and kept sending Li Qingyou home before leaving.
Although the dirty tofu can't be eaten, it can still be fed to the livestock, Li Qingyou was also slightly relieved, and mixed the tofu into the feed, which can be regarded as adding vegetables to the chickens, donkeys and pigs at home......
