Chapter 10: Yes, I ...... How do you make caramel candy?
Didn't you come to trouble them?
Lin Huan'er raised her head, and the person sitting on the tall horse was wearing a crimson official robe, and his hair was tied into a high ponytail. He looked like he was in his thirties, with a tall nose, sharp eyes, and a faint scar on the corner of his left eyebrow.
Intuitively, Lin Huan'er felt that this should be an upright person, and she said boldly, "Lord Hui, we sell braised plum water, which is sweet and sour, and can be supplemented ......."
"How do you sell it?" The man didn't listen to her.
"Six cents for a cup, three cups filled with a water bladder."
The man waved his hand to the officers and soldiers who were following him, "Take out all the water bladders and let the little girl fill them." ”
"Hey!" Lin Huan'er responded happily, and without waiting for anyone to order, she ran to the horses of the officers one by one and took their water bladders one by one.
Seeing this, Zeng hurriedly took a spoon and divided plum velvet and water into the water bladder.
Counting the leading man, there are a total of sixteen people in this group, which is 48 cups of braised plum water. After Lin Huan'er filled everyone's water bladder, she scraped the bottom of the can, and there were only two cups left, she scooped out a spoonful of water from it, and walked towards the leading man, "Official, this is for you, you drink a glass of water to quench your thirst." ”
The man laughed, "Aren't all things that other people taste before they buy them?" You little girl will settle accounts and give you a cup to taste after you buy it. After saying that, he took the cup and drank it all, "Cool!" ”
Lin Huan'er's face was slightly red by what she said, and she gave the water bladders to the officers one by one, pretending to be calm and said, "The plum velvet is frozen in the well in advance, and the water is also cooled after the well water is boiled. ”
The leading man laughed again, "Little girl, you should tell me before you buy it." After speaking, he took out three silver ingots, threw them into the cup, and handed the cup back, "Three coins, don't look for it." ”
Lin Huan'er was a little depressed, "The one you bought is called a direct, and you didn't ask me." After complaining and complaining, Lin Huan'er couldn't help but smile happily, "Thank you, official." ”
The high-headed horse quickly galloped away, and Lin Huan'er scraped out the last spoonful of plum velvet and scooped some water from the wooden barrel to wash it away, which was to be left for Li Yuan.
Soon, Li Yuan rushed back with two paper bags, and he glanced at the group of people who had left, "Are you okay?" I just bought steamed buns in Dongtou, and I saw the smoke and dust billowing here. ”
"It's okay, Grandpa Li." Lin Huan'er raised the jar with the mouth facing down, and smiled crookedly, "It's all sold out." ”
Li Yuan's expression immediately relaxed, "It's sold out, come, let's go home after eating the buns." ”
Zeng gave Li Yuan the money for the bun, handed Lin Huan'er a meat bun, bit a vegetarian bun himself, and carried another meat bun into his arms.
Lin Huan'er looked at Zeng's actions and sighed silently, it must have been Zeng's for her to eat tomorrow. She didn't want to quarrel with the Zeng family over a meat bun in front of Li Yuan, so she only quietly remembered this scene in her heart.
Today, she earned 660 copper coins, and she went out and promised to give Li Zheng 66 Wen, and she and Zeng's could keep 594 Wen.
Although the process of pushing water is a little harder, it is much more profitable than selling vegetables and selling light bamboo leaves, and sure enough, the more advanced and exquisite things are, the easier it is to make money.
She thought that Zeng would be very happy to see that she had made so much money, but after arriving home, Zeng became more and more distracted.
At night, Lin Huan'er was about to fall asleep, and Zeng suddenly turned over and sat up, waking Lin Huan'er up.
She propped herself up, "Grandma, what are you doing?" ”
"I'll go to the vegetable garden to pull some vegetables and send them back to Lao Li's family."
"Big night?" Lin Huan'er was shocked.
"Yes," Tsang nodded thoughtfully, "I will wilt tomorrow if I pull the vegetables now, and I should bring the dew tomorrow morning." ”
"It's a pity that our chickens haven't grown up yet, otherwise it's better to give other people's chickens, and the gift is too light."
Lin Huan'er stared at her sleepy eyes, and she still wanted to send chickens?
"Why, grandma? Why do you want to send something to the Li family? ”
"You kid," Tsang reproached, "and we must not express that they have given us such a good livelihood?" ”
"So Grandma was thinking about it this afternoon?" Lin Huan'er exclaimed.
The old lady sat back on the bamboo couch and sighed, "Otherwise, our family doesn't have anything to get their hands on now, and we can't do hard work, so I don't know where to thank you." ”
"Earn more than 500 copper coins a day, two temple fairs a month, then we can earn a tael of silver a month." Grandma has saved money for a lifetime, and she only saved three taels of silver, such a good job, how can they let us take the lion's share? ”
Lin Huan'er fell heavily on the bamboo couch and covered her head with a quilt, what happened to Guan Li's family, the idea was obviously what she thought, but she couldn't say it.
What it tastes like to lie...... It's really uncomfortable.
"Huan'er," Zeng patted the quilt outside, "You said that nine-system Huamei, will it sell for more money?" ”
"Grandma, I'm going to sleep." Huan'er said vaguely under the quilt.
Zeng didn't care about his granddaughter's feelings at all, and babbled, "When we make more money, we will definitely buy something for the Li family and send it." ”
"Tomorrow there is a market in the town, I will carry the light bamboo leaves you dried out to sell, and by the way, I will carry a jar of plum wool, what if someone in the town buys it?"
Lin Huan'er pulled down the quilt with her head covered, revealing a pair of big black eyes, "Grandma, I want to go to the town too." ”
Zeng glanced at Lin Huan'er. I feel that after the little granddaughter moved out of the eldest child's house, it has really changed, she used to be always timid and afraid to look at people, and she spoke softly, and she had to be nervous for a long time if she wanted to drink more saliva. Although the current granddaughter also speaks less, she speaks more and more directly and simply, and she can express her demands very clearly.
This made her particularly happy that she moved out with Huan'er, and when she saw that the child was getting more and more generous, she felt that her hard work was not in vain. At this time, the little granddaughter has just learned to make demands on herself, and she can't beat her.
Thinking of this, Zeng nodded and said, "Okay, but you have to get up early and accompany Grandma to feed the chickens and water the vegetables like today." ”
Lin Huan'er blinked, "Grandma, I still want some money...... Can you share a part of the money you earn in the future? I'm going to do two things. ”
"What do you want money for?" Can't hit the little granddaughter, can't hit the little granddaughter, Zeng secretly reminded herself in her heart, she took a breath and changed to a more kind tone, "If it was in the uncle's house before, the grandmother would definitely give it to you after making money, so as not to worry about your uncle, but now that we have moved out, grandma's money will be yours in the future, what do you want money for?" ”
"I want to buy more ingredients, and with them, I can make more things to sell in the future." Lin Huan'er said seriously, "But the money we earn still has to be kept for living expenses, and we can't spend it indiscriminately, so I just want to take out 20% of the money to buy materials, so that the money can make money, and our life will be better and better." ”
The little granddaughter's words are sensible and considerate, and everything is reasonable, but ......, "What else do you want to do?" ”
"Didn't Grandma buy the caramel that day, isn't it four pennies a tael? It's not cheap, I'll make caramel candy. Lin Huan'er was interested, and folded her fingers to Zeng's number, "Will you ......"
"But how do you know how to make caramel candy?" Tsang's question.
Lin Huan'er: ............
"yes, I...... How do you make caramel candy? ”
