The jelly business at the dock has kept Xiaocao really busy for a few days. In the past few days, she got up at dawn every day, drove the donkey cart with Xiaolian, and went out with the first pot of cold noodles made with Liu's help. Take a nap on the donkey cart, and when you arrive at the dock, you will boil chili oil and make seasonings non-stop, and then mix, roll, and cook noodles...... Then the first guests arrived.

In the summer, other shops selling food have ushered in the off-season. And the Yu family's little sister's jelly shop, the business is as prosperous as this summer. It's not that no one has come to explore the practice of cold powder, and it's hard to find materials for cold powder.

Therefore, the grass sisters held the basket of seaweed tightly tight. It is also specially separated in the noodle stall shed as a storage room. You can come to the shop to eat cold powder! You can't go to someone's storeroom! The pot in which the seaweed is boiled is covered with a thick covering, which prevents someone from stealing it and speeds up the boiling speed.

This summer, for some unknown reason, the sea cabbage has been pouring to the shore every day after the tide goes out. Xiaocao couldn't help but wonder: Is there a shock on the bottom of the sea, and these sea hairy vegetables growing on the bottom of the sea are broken from the earthquake, so that they will float to the shore along the tide. Those who want to explore the recipe for jelly, never expected that the seaweed floating everywhere on the beach is the recipe for making jelly.

After a few days, the business finally stabilized. However, in this business, it has to be cooked, seasoned and served to the guests, and Xiaolian will definitely not be busy alone. And Xiaocao's godfather has looked for her in private more than once, so that she can take time to take care of her godmother.

The last time I went to the town, after it was diagnosed that Mrs. Fang was pregnant, the house town treated it like a phoenix egg, holding the offering, and I couldn't wait to be with my daughter-in-law for twelve hours a day, for fear that she would stumble. Recently, a big man from the port came to inspect, and he couldn't get out, so he had to beg his daughter for help. The girl's medical skills are good, and she is good at recuperating medicinal diets, so she can rest assured that she can follow him.

Xiaocao entrusted her uncle, who was working on the dock, to send a letter to her aunt who was idle at home, asking her to partner with Xiaolian in this business. Although Liangfen cold noodles are a small business, after removing the cost in one day, the two families can at least share one tael of silver, which is thirty taels in a month. There is hardly anyone who does business on the docks who can surpass their family.

The eldest aunt came over the next day with her little daughter. Her eldest daughter, Liu Feifeng, is almost 17 years old, has been married for two years, and is ready to marry at the end of this year, so she has to prepare for marriage at home! The Han family is going to give all the fifty taels of silver that Xiaocao has to pay for the store to the eldest daughter. After all, the eldest daughter also went to help.

The second daughter Liu Feiying is 14 years old, and she just said a family matter, and Han heard Xiaocao say that it may not be a good thing for a girl to marry early, so he told his future in-laws that he would keep his daughter until she was 16 or 7 years old and then marry her.

The in-laws also agreed, but if they don't agree, the brothers of the Liu family followed their brother-in-law to sell watermelons and made a lot of money, and there is nothing in the entire Xishan Village that they don't know. The eldest of the Liu family had no son, and the money he earned bought a shop for his daughters in the newly built port as a dowry. The eldest daughter prepared fifty taels of silver for the dowry alone, such a generous amount, not to mention Xishan Village, even the nearby Shili Eight Villages, and I have never seen anyone so willing to marry her daughter. So, the person who came to say that he was close almost stepped on the threshold of the Liu family.

Picking and choosing, the Han family chose a family on the outskirts of the town for the second daughter, and it can be regarded as a rare rich family in Xishan Village. There are more than 30 acres of fertile land at home, the population is relatively simple, the old couple is well-known for their good temper, an elder brother has married a wife and has children, and when the youngest son becomes a parent, the old couple is ready to let them divide the family alone, the field and the family property are equally divided, the old couple follows the boss, and the old two months give some rice grain for the elderly. It is precisely for this reason that even though the family's family resources are not the most among the proposed, the Han family chose this family for the second daughter.

The Liu family's market has been rising, not only Han's second daughter, but even the youngest daughter, who is just 12 years old, has also come to the door to say goodbye. Han Shi felt that her little girl was young and wanted her to play happily for two more years, and secondly, she felt that as long as her family worked with her sister-in-law's family for another two years, the family background would never be like this, and there might be more opportunities to choose in the future.

The boss of the Liu family and the Han family were idle, and as soon as the watermelon was off the market, Liu Pei ran to the dock to carry the coolies again. The sixth brother once approached him and asked him if he would like to become a regular employee. Liu Pei was worried about selling watermelons at the end of spring every year, so he politely refused the kindness of the sixth brother. Temporary workers at the dock don't wait for life every day. However, the sixth brother saw Xiaocao's face and assigned work every day, and even the salary was paid according to the standard of regular workers.

Han has been idle at home for a few days, and he has long been thinking about what kind of business to do to make some small money to spend. Before she could make a decision, her own man brought her good news.

"Xiaocao, your uncle said that you made a new food? Say you two are too busy, let me help. What needs to be done by my aunt, just say! "Han has never doubted the skill of this little niece in making food.

Han is used to cooking at home, and making noodles and rolling noodles can't stop her at all. Xiaocao handed her the piece of making cold noodles. As for the little cousin Liu Feiyan, like her mother, she is a quick hand and foot and works carefully. Xiaocao asked her to help serve cold noodles and noodles to the guests. In this way, Xiaolian only needs to take care of making the cold powder, and seasoning the cold powder and cold noodles!

Han and Liu Feiyan are both good at work, and after experiencing the initial rush, they quickly got started.

"Hey! What do you think? You two didn't help, did you? Liu Pei, who finished loading a shipload of goods, took his eldest nephew Liu Zhiwei and came over in strides while wiping his sweat with his coat. Liu Zhiwei is now also an employee under Sixth Brother.

Han Shi scooped the boiled noodles into the ice water, did not forget to roll his eyes, and said with a smile: "You usually eat for nothing when we are the two of us?" Can you still stump me when you make noodles? ”

Liu Feiyan quickly poured two bowls of chilled boiling water, gave a bowl to her father and cousin, and smiled mysteriously: "Dad, drink a bowl of water to quench your thirst!" ”

Liu Pei was already so thirsty that his throat was smoking, so he took it and took a big sip. A cool feeling goes straight to the heart, and it is more enjoyable than drinking a well of cold water in Dafutian.

After drinking the ice water in one go, Liu Pei let out a long breath, called out a refreshing sound, and said, "Yan'er girl, bring another bowl to Dad!" Xiaocao, where did you get such cool well water? ”

Liu Feiyan filled another bowl and hurriedly said, "Dad, my cousin is amazing." In the summer, you can actually make ice. This ice water has been chilled with ice cubes! ”

"Where's the ice in the summer? Could it be that the little grass girl is a little fairy and can turn water into ice? Lao Hao sat under the pergola with a body of heat, picked up the fan in the store, and fanned the wind vigorously. Hearing this, he interjected jokingly.

Xiaocao also poured him a bowl of ice water, and there were two ice cubes floating on it. The vat on the noodle stall has become her special tool for making ice. Both cold noodles and cold noodles are chilled with ice water with ice cubes for a cooler taste.

Lao Hao's bull's eyes widened, staring at the ice cube the size of a pigeon's egg, then scooped it up with his hands, looked at it for a while, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it "click", and he was addicted!

Other people who came to wait for the meal saw it and asked for a bowl of ice water. Xiaolian said with a smile while adjusting the cold powder: "We only have a bucket of ice in total, if we give it to you to eat, the cold powder and cold noodles will not be iced cold." Do the uncles want to eat warm cold noodles and cold noodles? ”

Hearing this, the simple dock workers all laughed and dispelled this thought. Some of them were more active, and said loudly: "Xiaolian, I know that this ice water is not easy to come by, and we won't drink you in vain, what do you think of a bowl of ice water for a penny?" ”

Someone sends money to the door, so naturally it is impossible to push it out. Xiao Cao, who was making ice inside, heard this, and hurriedly said: "Since the uncles have said this, if we push it back, it will be too unpleasant!" Well, in the future, we will add one more deal - selling ice water! ”

Xiaolian asked with some concern: "Little sister, it's not easy to make ice, we have few people, can we be busy?" What she meant was, could the ice be supplied in just one jar?

Xiaocao smiled and said loudly: "If it can be convenient for everyone, let's be busy!" Don't worry, just make more ice every day! ”

Xiaocao means that Ming'er asked her father to expand the noodle stall, make a proper storeroom, and make two large tanks in it, as long as the ratio of saltpeter and water is well adjusted, and the water is filled with an iron bucket and placed in it, there is no trouble.

However, the consumption of water will definitely increase dramatically in the future, and the water must be pulled to nearby villages, which is very inconvenient. However, money can make the devil grind, and they can hire someone to help carry water! A few pennies and a cart of water, there are still people who are willing to do this business!

After adding the service of selling ice water, the Yu sisters' business became more prosperous. On a hot day, after sweating, drink a bowl of cold ice water, absolutely quench your thirst and quench the heat! When the heat is relieved, the appetite will come up, come up with a bowl of cold noodles or cold noodles, not to mention how refreshing!

With the eldest aunt and little cousin as helpers, Xiaocao will naturally be able to free up her hands to take care of her pregnant godmother. There are many trees on the mountain, and the living environment is quite cool. Mrs. Fang is not squeamish when she is pregnant, and every morning and evening, she still walks in the forest as usual, enjoying the beautiful scenery or something.

Mrs. Fang sat firmly in this child, and Xiaocao checked her pulse every day, feeling that as long as she didn't do any physical labor in the first three months, appropriate activities were still necessary. In terms of nutrition, Xiaocao changes tricks every day to make food for the godmother. Facing the natural scenery of Xishan every day, and accompanied by her filial goddaughter, in addition to not smelling the fishy smell of seafood, Mrs. Fang, who is in a good mood, is not harmful.

Xiaocao joked: "The little brother must be a filial and well-behaved person, knowing that the godmother is pregnant hard, and he is reluctant to toss you." ”

Mrs. Fang pointed at the little girl's head with her index finger, touched her belly, and revealed the brilliance of motherhood.
