Chapter 18 Beef Noodles
The old lady reached out and touched the mushrooms, which was very good and complete, "Weigh me ten catties, your little girl is quite good at business" My daughter is also in this town, send her some when the time comes, and keep it for myself to eat.
This one weighs five catties, that one weighs two catties, and after a while, a large basket of mushrooms will be sold out.
The basket was vacated, and began to buy piglets, in the selection of piglets, the first thing to observe is that healthy piglets are lively and active, the eyes are bright, and the cry is also crisp, in addition, the pig's fur is smooth and oily, the skin is pink, the physique is good, and the pig grows slowly.
Lin Jianguo was selling piglets in a family, picked the biggest, the most fierce and asked the price of twelve yuan a piece, talked about the price for a long time, the person refused to let go, and it was time for the second girl to go out again, she blinked her eyes and shouted: "Uncle, can you give us a cheaper, just a little, please."
"Look at you kid, then give you eleven yuan, but you can't be less, you see my pig, it will grow into a big pig in less than two months, and I can't lose you."
"Thank you, uncle, you are so good, uncle, you will definitely make a fortune today".
"Hahaha, if I want to make a fortune, if I see you again, I'll buy you a pound of candy to eat." The person who bought the piglet didn't think so, helped put the pig in the basket, and was busy greeting other people who bought the piglet.
Who knew that after a while, a big family came, and all of a sudden he fell in love with his piglets, and bought his piglets at a high price, so happy that he didn't know what to say, hey, hey, was really said by the little girl, so god, goodbye to the little girl, I have to thank her.
After buying the piglet, I was about to go to see the chicks, when Erya suddenly pulled Lin Jianguo's sleeve: "Dad, look at that little pig, it's so pitiful, it can't eat, and other piglets are bullying it, Dad, let's buy another pig."
Lin Jianguo looked at the pig, his voice was shrill and hoarse, his breath was short, he was wheezing and his nose was fanning, he saw that it was a sick pig, and said to Erya: "This pig is not good, it can't be raised, and when I see that the leg is lame, let's not buy this pig."
Erya had an idea in her heart, she wanted to buy the piglet, and said to Lin Jianguo coquettishly: "No, Dad, is it good to buy it, I will cut pigweed for it every day in the future."
Lin Jianguo looked at Jiang's mother in embarrassment, and the family said that they had sold ginseng, but there was less than a hundred yuan left after buying a house.
Mother Jiang saw that Erya insisted on this piglet, and suddenly thought of what happened to Erya, she has always been very lucky, she is a blessed one, maybe she can really feed this piglet.
Let Lin Jianguo step forward to ask the price, the pig seller heard that Lin Jianguo was in the picture of the sick pig, glanced at Lin Jianguo, the person in front of him, wearing a large patch and a small patch, is not a rich family, he can't fool this farmer with a conscience, shouting:
"Big brother, we don't lie to the croppers, I don't hide it from you, this sow is a little wrong, I'm afraid I can't keep it, if you want a piglet, I'll choose a fat and strong piglet for you, and it's not a problem to ensure that you grow to 200 pounds."
Seeing that Lin Jianguo still insisted on the sick pig, the pig seller said: "Then if you really want the pig, six yuan, you can arrest it." It's not that he's deceiving people, it's that this person is stupid, so he can't help it.
Bought the favorite piglet, Er Ya was very happy, pulled her father and mother to pick nine hens, a rooster, you can also hold the nest when you turn around, chickens lay eggs, eggs lay chickens, chickens regenerate eggs, eggs regenerate chickens...... If the cycle continues like this, there will be endless chickens!
By noon, Erya was also a little hungry, and when she saw a state-run restaurant in front of her, she didn't know what the restaurant food tasted like in this era, so she shook Jiang's mother's hand: "Mother, let's eat here at noon today, I want to eat the food inside."
Mother Jiang looked at the restaurant in front of her, she had eaten with Lin Jianguo once when she was married, and she never came again, if her daughter wanted to eat, she would take her to eat it once, and she earned more than ten yuan selling mushrooms today.
glanced at Lin Jianguo, he didn't have any opinion, it turned out that he had no money in his hand, so he owed his wife and daughter, so now that he has money in his hand, he can't treat them badly.
The three of them walked in, and it would be time for dinner, and several round tables were full of people, and they were eating happily.
I found a vacant seat, took down the basket and put it away, and began to see what dishes were served today, at this time the restaurant is not like modern times, giving you a menu, you can order whatever you want, but what dishes are available today, write on a small blackboard, and order what dishes according to your needs.
In this era, the state-run restaurants were all run by the state, from the cooks to the waiters, all of them ate public meals, iron rice bowls, and you couldn't get in if it wasn't for that person. also
Seeing that there is beef noodles on the small blackboard, a bowl for a dollar, at this time the cow is not allowed to be killed at will, it is a precious product, if you want to eat beef, you have to wait until the cow dies of natural old age, you can kill to eat meat, there is no way to eat it.
The second girl drooled greedily, she hadn't eaten beef for a long time, and shouted: "Dad, I want to eat that beef noodle, I heard them say in the village, it's delicious."
Three people have to pay three yuan, enough to buy how much cornmeal, even Jiang Mu is a little reluctant, "Erya wants to eat it, just buy her a bowl, I'll just eat that somen noodles."
Erya was not happy to hear it: "Mother, you eat beef noodles, you usually can't eat what you want to eat, I heard that eating this beef noodles is good for the little brother, maybe the little brother also wants to eat beef noodles."
After discussing for a long time, Lin Jianguo gritted his teeth and ordered two bowls of beef noodles, and went to pay the money first, at this time the waiters were impatient, poor ghosts, grinding and chirping when eating, and brought a basket to get some pigs and chickens, stinky and baked, and the tone was impatient:
"Comrade, can you hurry up, there are still so many people waiting, if you can't afford to eat, go to the small stall, a mud leg, don't pretend to be arrogant here."
Lin Jianguo's face turned red all of a sudden, and he felt that the people behind him were pointing fingers, why did this person speak so ugly.
As soon as Erya heard this person treat her father like this, she suddenly got up, "Auntie, why do you talk so ugly, your mouth stinks, Erya can smell it when she stands so far away, and the restaurant is not opened by your family, order us three bowls of beef noodles, and add meat, hurry up, we still have something."
When the waiter heard this, the girl who was only in her early twenties, this child called herself aunt, and she was angry, and she was about to slap the second girl in the face.
"Stop"
