Chapter 90: What to Do? (2 chapters combined)
Ye Ning looked at the box handed to him, his face full of question marks.
She and he are not related, and they are not even acquaintances, so why did he give her something?
She pushed the box in front of Lu Cheng and shook her head, "Thank you Dr. Lu for your kindness, I don't lack anything at home." ”
She didn't ask what the box contained.
Whatever it was, she wouldn't want it.
After saying that, she was going to close the courtyard door.
Lu Cheng forcibly stuffed the box into her arms, and said stiffly, "My meal expenses." ”
Then, he turned and strode away.
Ye Ning looked down at the box in his hand, and then looked up at the figure that he had arrived at the door of Grandma Xu's house, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
What did he mean by that stiff and awkward tone?
It's like she's forcing him to deliver something.
This person is really inexplicable today.
It was too late, and she didn't want to chase after him and pull attention to him, so she took the box for the time being.
When she returned to the house, she opened the box and took a look at it.
See what's in the end.
It's so hot, if there's something that needs to be refrigerated, it's a waste of food to be left outside.
After the box was opened and the contents of the machine were clearly seen, Ye Ning raised his eyebrows in surprise.
It turned out to be a dual-card tape recorder and about 20 unopened tapes.
The tapes are pop music, but also operas.
It's a pretty expensive thing in this day and age.
Ye Ning hurriedly closed the box, tied the box with a strap again, and prepared to give it directly to Grandma Xu tomorrow.
Not to mention that the things are quite valuable, even if there is a pair of chopsticks inside, she will not accept them.
Hey, what about the food bill?
Could it be that he still wants to eat at her house for a long time?
Ye Ning thought of this possibility, and even more dared not accept this tape recorder.
Putting her things aside, she went to boil water to wash her hair and take a shower.
Early the next morning, Ye Ning got up half an hour earlier than usual.
Yesterday, I agreed with Ye Yang that he would go to the field at five o'clock in the morning to collect the cages and then sell them to Fang Hui.
After washing, Ye Ning coiled his hair high and began to prepare things for the stall.
She first washed the soybean sprouts, mung bean sprouts and small green vegetables with water, put them in a basket and drained them, peeled the garlic, washed the green onions, cut the red peppers, and shredded the carrots, cucumbers, and thousands of sheets for later use.
Make a fire and boil hot water, blanch the mung bean sprouts and carrots successively, put them into a large stainless steel basin that is washed and detoxified with boiling water, add condiments and mix evenly.
After mixing the mung bean sprouts cold, stir-fry the soybean sprouts with garlic and red peppers.
Ye Ning tasted the taste and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
Today, we not only sell fried noodles, but also mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts, these two dishes are for customers to try.
Let everyone understand that her bean sprouts are different from the bean sprouts sold in the vegetable market outside.
It was still early, Ye Ning took out the fried noodles that had been half-cooked with oil last night, and put them in a disposable lunch box according to the appropriate amount.
If the ingredients are prepared first, the speed of stir-frying will be increased a lot, and if there are many people, there will be no rush.
To do business early, it's all about speed.
At this time, Ye Yang came.
According to Ye Ning's instructions, he also left some yellow eels and loaches to eat by himself, and sold them for three hundred and fifty yuan today.
He happily handed the money to Ye Ning, his eyes shining, "Third sister, money." ”
Ye Ning smiled and asked, "Are you tired?" ”
"Not tired! Not tired at all! Ye Yang shook his head vigorously, "What do you need me to do?" When are we going to come out? ”
There is a sense of accomplishment in earning money, he wants to help the third sister with more money, let the third sister live a good life, and make the parents regret it, the eldest sister and the second sister are jealous!
He believes that one day, they will all regret bullying the third sister!
Ye Ning asked Ye Yang to help pack the fried noodles.
Grandma Xu came back from practicing her voice in the small park, and she didn't go home, so she also came to help.
When it was almost six o'clock, Grandma Xu helped the siblings load all the things they needed onto the tricycle and start to go out of the stall.
Grandma Xu went home and said hello to Lu Cheng, saying that she was going to help Ye Ning out of the stall.
Today is Ye Ning's first day of setting up a stall, she has no experience, she is young, and she will be bullied, she is only down-to-earth when she watches from the sidelines.
Ye Ning and Ye Yang came to the stall that had been selected a long time ago, and someone came earlier than them and had already set up a stall.
This street is at a four-way intersection, and the surrounding communities are lined with great pedestrian flow.
There are many stalls in the early morning and evening, and in the morning they sell vegetables for breakfast, and in the evening they sell groceries, fruits, and pickled vegetables.
Although it is not a serious store or a market, I don't know when someone has managed the charges.
The stall charges one yuan for one time.
Maybe it's because Ye Ning is a new face, and when she and Ye Yang were setting things, the couple who were making flatbread fritters next to them looked at them several times.
The wife asked Ye Ning, "Little girl, do you also sell breakfast?" What to sell? ”
"We sell fried noodles." Ye Ning responded with a smile.
Knowing that it was different from what they were selling, the couple was secretly relieved.
Soon, the stall was set up.
Two repurposed wooden tables, one with a single-head stove and condiments, the other with cold mung bean sprouts and stir-fried soybean sprouts, as well as disposable chopsticks and small cups to use for tasting.
The bean sprouts sold are placed in two bamboo baskets, and they are cute and raw.
In addition, a small square table and four small stools were set up for customers who did not want to pack.
Ye Yang leaned over a sign with the word fried noodles written on it with a red pen to the table, clapped his hands, and was done, just waiting for the customer to come to the door.
Grandma Xu also came over.
Seeing that she began to tie her apron as soon as she came over, Ye Ning hurriedly stopped, "Grandma Xu, you hurry home and rest, you don't need your help, Xiaoyang and I can do it." ”
"What, do you think I'm old?" Grandma Xu glared at her fiercely.
"Grandma Xu, you know I didn't mean that." Ye Ning hurriedly waved his hand.
"Hmph, if you don't let me help, you just dislike me." Grandma Xu gave her another blank look.
Ye Ning had no choice but to agree.
In addition to being moved, I was still moved.
Grandma Xu said to Ye Ning while wearing sleeves, "Ning girl, you are responsible for frying, I am responsible for helping you pack the bowls, and Xiaoyang is responsible for selling bean sprouts and collecting money." ”
Ye Ning nodded and said yes.
It just so happened that the three of them hadn't eaten breakfast yet, and there weren't many pedestrians on the road, so Ye Ning first opened the pot of fried noodles for Grandma Xu and Ye Yang to eat.
Turn on the stove and light the fire, heat the oil in the pan, and when the oil is hot, add the small greens and mung bean sprouts and stir-fry quickly.
The green vegetables and bean sprouts that have been improved by Ye Ning's ability to improve the quality of his hands are fried in oil, and the aroma of the vegetables is immediately overflowing.
Add fried noodles, soy sauce, salt, home-ground chili powder and chopped green onions, and the aroma is even stronger, filling the air and overshadowing the aroma of fried fritters.
Smelling the fragrance, the couple who fried the fritters couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and looked over to Ye Ning.
Isn't it just fried noodles, why is it so fragrant?
What condiments are put in it, it smells delicious, and I really want to buy a bowl and try it.
Over there, Grandma Xu had already buried her head in eating, and Ye Yang was waiting for the second bowl to come out of the pot.
People passing by who were also tempted by the fragrance looked over here, and just when someone was hesitating to stop and buy a bowl, Lu Cheng's figure suddenly appeared in front of Ye Ning again, "Let's have a bowl." ”
The voice was as cold as ever.
Grandma Xu looked at him and asked him puzzled, "Xiaocheng, didn't you scrambled eggs and rice for breakfast?" ”
Lu Cheng replied, "It's too dry to eat." ”
He was depressed.
Since I ate the food cooked by the poisonous girl, I can no longer eat the food cooked by my grandmother.
What to do?
Is he too unfilial?
"Ho!" Grandma Xu glared at him coldly.
Too dry to eat?
Didn't you eat well before?
Now I just think that what she makes is not delicious, so I don't dare to say it directly.
It seems that she will have to make the food more unpalatable in the future, so that she will force the stinky boy to go to Ning Yatou's house to eat.
Grandma Xu didn't know about Lu Cheng's gift, and Ye Ning hadn't had time to say it yet.
While the grandfather and grandson were talking, Ye Ning had already fried the noodles and packed them.
However, it's two!
Considering the amount of food he ate, she thought that one serving would definitely not be enough for him.
When she was about to hand the noodles to Lu Cheng, two young girls came over with bicycles and said, "Boss, bring us two bowls and put a little chili." ”
Ye Ning smiled and nodded, "Okay, please wait." ”
Lu Cheng looked at the two copies of noodles handed over, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching.
He obviously said one bowl, why did she fry two bowls for him, was it an insinuation that he ate too much?
But he still took it, sat down at the small square table, and opened the lunch box directly to eat.
Of course, the fried noodles should be eaten hot, and the taste will change after a long time.
Lu Cheng, who is tall and has long legs and a handsome appearance, sits at a small square table and eats fried noodles, which is really eye-catching, and attracts passers-by to look sideways.
Then, Ye Ning found that there were more and more young girls who came to buy fried noodles in front of the stall.
When they were waiting for the fried noodles, they would all subconsciously look at Lu Cheng, and some would simply stand at the square table and wait.
After Ye Ning noticed this abnormal scene, he looked at the girls' eyes and immediately understood what was going on.
She couldn't help but purse her lips and smile secretly.
It seems that this person made a sign for her to attract customers for free.
Good looks are advantages.
The taste of the fried noodles is so fragrant that more and more people come to buy them.
Soon someone noticed two pots of vegetables on the other table and asked, "Girl, is this dish also for sale?" ”
Ye Ning smiled and responded, "This is a tasting, the mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts are my own hair, you can taste them, if you think they are delicious, you can buy some back." ”
Ye Yang was very flexible, and when Ye Ning spoke, he used clean chopsticks to pick up the dishes he tasted and put them into disposable small cups and handed them to several customers.
Several people took the cup, tasted it, and their eyes lit up suddenly.
"It's delicious, crispy, and sweet, unlike the ones you buy in the market, which either don't taste at all, or just smell like beany."
"Xian, girl, how do you make this cold salad, do you put MSG?"
"Nope." Ye Ning shook his head and told the truth.
Knowing that she only put salt and sesame oil in her condiments, everyone was a little unconvinced.
Is salt and trouble fresh, too?
Ye Ning explained, "That's the umami of the bean sprouts themselves. ”
Grandma Xu confirmed from the side, "It is true that only these are placed, and there is no MSG in the kitchen of Ning Yatou's house, which shows that the bean sprouts are good." ”
The taste is so good, and it is cheap, several people bought a catty each.
They thought about buying a pound first and going back to eat and see, and if it was delicious, they would buy it again.
The flow of people is getting louder and louder, the roadside stalls are almost full, the bargaining is coming and going, and the air is full of the aroma of food.
Only a smoky, noisy and noisy city can be full of vitality and symbolize prosperity.
Business was even better than Ye Ning expected, and all the bean sprouts were sold out.
The two pots of bean sprouts were originally for tasting, but after eating them, several customers didn't want to make them themselves, so they bought the finished ones directly.
Several uncles and aunts who set up stalls selling vegetables next to them didn't have breakfast, and they were attracted by the aroma of fried noodles, and each of them fried a portion.
Ye Ning deliberately added portions to them all to ensure that they could eat enough.
Several people saw the amount of fried noodles from other customers, and when they saw the amount in their bowls, they all counted it in their hearts, and they praised Ye Ning for being good and doing business.
Hearing these praises, Grandma Xu squinted happily, as if she was being praised.
At half past eight, the fried noodles and bean sprouts were sold out, and Ye Ning and the others closed their stalls and went home.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Ye Yang patted his bulging wallet, "Grandma Xu, third sister, let's count how much money we earned today." ”
Today all the money was collected by his hands, and he thought about it to see how much it was.
Grandma Xu smiled and stretched out her hand to touch him, "I'm also a little money fan." ”
The three of them entered the living room, Ye Yang carefully poured the money on the table and piled it up in a small pile, but most of them were one cent and five cents and one yuan, and the maximum face value was five yuan.
After counting, a total of 191 yuan was collected, not counting labor, excluding costs, about 80 yuan was earned.
Although the money is less than selling yellow eels in the morning, Ye Yang has a greater sense of accomplishment.
You must know that this money is slowly saved up by a bowl of noodles and a pound of bean sprouts, which is stronger than the feeling of directly doing a business.
Grandma Xu was also surprised and sighed, "I really didn't expect that selling fried noodles could make money like this." ”
Even if it is calculated at fifty a day, it is much better than those who go to work and get paid.
After moving the things off the tricycle, Ye Ning asked Grandma Xu and Ye Yang to rest, and she was going to the market to buy lobsters.
In the afternoon, she has to set up a stall to sell crayfish.
It's the season to eat crayfish and drink beer.
After the lobster was bought, she was also going to take Ye Yang to the river to net fish.
Wild money in the river, you can sell it, you can eat it.
The whole day was filled with her schedule.
Before going out, Ye Ning said to Ye Yang again, "Xiaoyang, take advantage of this time to read a book, I will go to high school soon, and my studies will be more intense." ”
"Oh, got it." When it came to reading, Ye Yang was stunned, and his answer was weak.
Ye Ning glared at him with a smile and stepped on the tricycle and went out.
No, you also need to buy a bicycle or motorcycle, so that it is more convenient to go out in the future.
……
Enze Hospital.
After Lu Cheng went to the operating room for surgery, Han Wenyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurried to find Ye Meimei.
He is really afraid of Lu Cheng now, and he is careful in everything he does, for fear of being grabbed by Lu Cheng's pigtails and scolded him.
Ye Meimei had just come from home and was talking to Ye Yuan, "Yuanyuan, you go home and rest, I'll take care of Dad." ”
She stayed at home for a day yesterday, because Qiu Yuhua was not at home, not only did no one cook for her, but she also had to feed the chickens and pigs to do housework.
Where would she do these things, after thinking about it carefully, it is better to come to the hospital to take care of Ye Jingui, anyway, there are nurses, and she doesn't need to do anything, but she can still have a good reputation of filial piety.
Ye Yuan shook her head, "No, eldest sister, you're not in good health, it's better for you to go home and rest, I'll take care of Dad." ”
If she goes home, she won't be able to see Dr. Lu.
He was my father's attending doctor, and she had to ask him about his condition.
Thinking of Lu Cheng's handsome jade-like face, Ye Yuan's heart jumped.
Seeing that the two sisters were rushing to take care of Ye Jingui, the family members of the patients on the hospital bed next to them boasted, "You two sisters are really filial, and your father is really blessed." ”
Ye Meimei and Ye Yuan were praised for their beauty, and Ye Jingui also smiled proudly.
Han Wenyu came in, first asked Ye Jingui about his situation, and then called Ye Meimei out of the ward.
