Ye Xinyan was very disdainful of her grandfather's statement, she secretly rolled her eyes, and complained: "Regarding the matter of grandpa's return to his old business, what my uncle and grandfather said is not bad at all. How old are you to think you're a young lad? ”

Qi Younian smiled, "Even if I'm old and don't have physical strength, my skills are still there." I can take two apprentices and teach them to do the work while earning the money. By the time they learn, your dowry will be almost enough. ”

"Marry, dowry?" Ye Xinyan heard this word here for the first time in Qi Younian, and was stunned, "What dowry?" What do I want to dowry? ”

Mama Jin was secretly smiling on the side, but the old man was thoughtful.

Qi Younian was surprised: "Of course, you have to pay a dowry when you get married." The dowry is good, and when we look for someone, we will have the confidence to pick the in-law's family, and some people are willing to marry us. ”

"I ...... I've been married, who else are I looking for? Ye Xinyan swallowed the rice in her mouth, otherwise she might have sprayed.

Before Qi Younian could speak, Mama Jin was anxious, "You child, you have just turned nineteen years old, of course you have to find your in-laws to marry." This time, let's find someone who does our duty, and we will be able to find a hearty husband who is literate and knowledgeable, and looks handsome. ”

Mama Jin really thought about this, the eldest lady just turned nineteen years old this year, and it was when she was young. Although the eldest lady has been married once, she doesn't have a son and a half daughter by her side, so if she lives alone, how can she do it? Now there is an old man and she by the side of the eldest lady, and when they are gone, the eldest lady is old and old, what can I do if she is lonely?

Although her eldest lady is not outstanding among the ladies in the capital, in this countryside, the conditions of the eldest lady cannot be found in ten miles and eight towns. is young, beautiful, and knows poetry and books, although the female red is a little bit, but the eldest lady has now begun to study seriously, and the two bedding at home, the eldest lady has taken the initiative to help sew.

Judging from all kinds of conditions, the eldest lady is worthy of a solid family in the county seat and the countryside.

Qi Younian also helped on the side, and said very solemnly: "Yezi, what Mama Jin said is right. You are a woman, and you are young, and you will have a long time to come, so you must have someone to rely on. Marrying someone must be considered. ”

"Well, that, eat, eat first." Ye Xinyan looked at the downward formation on this side, and immediately made a decision, deciding that it would be better to leave this topic away first. Not only do you throw it away now, but it's better not to mention it again in the future.

Nima, didn't the ancient times pay attention to the second marriage of women? Isn't it about temperance or something? Why did everything change as soon as she arrived here, and before she could do anything, she began to plan for her next home.

The family was almost busy, and the three of them began to plan to set up a stall to sell rice tofu.

The folding tables and chairs are all ready, and the small charcoal stove is ready. All that's left is to prepare broken rice, spices, and buy bowls, chopsticks, and spoons.

In addition, there is another staple food that goes with rice tofu. Of course, the best is the baked cakes sold in the county, but they are just starting out now, and it is harder to make their own staple food, but the family can have an extra income.

A few days ago, when Qi Younian was repairing the table and stool, Ye Xinyan and Mama Jin made two staple foods.

One is made of cornmeal, which Ye Xinyan once ate in the countryside in the north, called Tanhua. It is to mix the cornmeal into a thin paste, then ferment, add edible alkali to mix, scoop it out with a spoon and pour it on the pan. The corn paste is naturally spread out on the pan, cover the pot, and it will be cooked in a few minutes.

This kind of tortilla, when eaten hot, has a soft texture and does not have the coarse feeling of coarse grains at all.

The other is a half-baked cake. After the dough is mixed with edible alkali to make it neutral, add the soft dough and knead it repeatedly until the dough is smooth and tough. After that, it is divided into small pieces, wrapped in a small amount of puff pastry, rolled out and folded several times to make a triangular cake, and then baked and matured.

These two foods, the two of them tried to make them twice, and they were quite successful, and they began to plan the stall intensively.

At the beginning of April, the three people in the second room of the Qi family got up early, Jin Mama and Ye Xinyan, one baked triangular biscuits, and the other boiled the rice milk ground the night before into rice tofu. Then they were put on the car with the baked cakes, fermented corn batter, and the prepared rice tofu, as well as seasonings and dipping water.

As soon as the sky was bright, the family of three locked the door, set up a donkey cart, and went to the county seat.

When he bought things for his home and stalls, Ye Xinyan took a good look at the place in the county, Qi Younian inquired about the relevant matters of setting up stalls, and paid money to the officials in the Yamen Management Fang City, which was regarded as completing the procedures, which was equivalent to having a business license.

With a fixed stall, this time they brought all the belongings of the stall and went directly to the place where they were optimistic.

Ye Xinyan chose the stall on the street with a lot of people, and the three of them put out rice tofu, dipping toppings, triangular baked cakes, etc. one by one.

In addition, the charcoal stove and pan were set up, and Mama Jin began to spread the corn flowers.

Qi Younian and Ye Xinyan propped up the two tables and put stools respectively.

Everything stopped, Ye Xinyan shouted in a voice that Qi Younian and Mama Jin had ever seen, shouting and selling: "Delicious and cheap fresh food, salty and refreshing rice tofu, crispy and crispy triangle pancakes, soft and fragrant corn stall flowers." Those who didn't eat breakfast came to try it, cheap and affordable breakfast. ”

When they set up their stalls, some people watched from afar, and then listened to this young daughter-in-law with a dark face shouting, well, Ye Xinyan, as the eldest lady who is used to being pampered in the Guogong Mansion, is still a little eye-catching in this small place, everyone is grease and powder, but she can only tan herself and make some ugliness......

Hearing Ye Xinyan's shouting, someone asked, "What are you selling?" …… Rice tofu? I've never heard of such a meal. ”

Ye Xinyan hurriedly answered, "It's rice tofu, it's a fresh food, delicious and cheap, three dollars is a big bowl, and our toppings are also fragrant and delicious, do you want to try it?" Our stall also has a staple dish with rice tofu, which is cheap, so you can choose between two types. ”

Some people shook their heads and walked away, and some people looked to see how big the big bowl Ye Xinyan said, and at a glance, it was indeed not a small bowl.

Since people came to see it, they were hesitating whether to eat it or not.

Ye Xinyan persuaded: "We are opening a business today, why don't you sit down and try it?" We give you a preferential price, a bowl of rice tofu for two yuan, what do you think? ”

The price reduction was discussed by Ye Xinyan and them, rice tofu is a fresh food, and people must always taste what it tastes on the first day, so that more people can eat it.

The man was a little moved, "How do you sell your staple food?" ”

Ye Xinyan replied briskly: "Two triangular baked cakes and one tortilla, if you eat, we will accept you according to one penny, do you think it's okay?" ”
