After more than half a month, the rainy Qingyan Town finally ushered in a sunny day, and the market on this day looked more lively than usual.

After so long of mold, everyone seems to want to go out and get a dip in the long-lost sunshine.

When it came to lunch, there was an endless stream of customers from major restaurants.

In a magnificent restaurant, the shopkeeper was very busy, the master on the left ordered food, and the girl on the right was urging the food, running around, and even the shopkeeper ran out to appease the customers.

"I'm sorry for a few, I've been waiting for a long time, there are more customers today than usual, and there happens to be a guy who has a happy family, and he is on leave, and there is a shortage of manpower.

The shopkeeper's name is Zhang Hongsheng, he looks less than forty, with a simple and honest face, he will feel very friendly at first glance, but there is an imperceptible shrewdness in his eyes, he clasped his hands into fists, and his face showed an apologetic look.

Seeing that the shopkeeper was apologizing and giving things, the faces of those impatient customers finally looked better, and it was not easy to urge them anymore.

Xiao Er wiped the sweat from the corner of his forehead, and couldn't help but admire, or his own shopkeeper was calm and round, but he was noisy by this group of people, and he didn't know who to listen to.

I saw that the shopkeeper comforted the guests, and immediately handed Xiao Er a look, and the two walked quickly to the kitchen.

Only then did he lower his voice and said, "Zhao Si, hurry up and pack some braised edamame and serve them, let them eat slowly, and then go to urge the vegetables." ”

Xiao Er, who called Zhao Si, nodded, and hurriedly turned around and went in to get the plate.

Zhang Hongsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly wondered if he was going to recruit some new guys recently.

By the time Zhao Si was so tired that he sat down to rest like a dead dog, an hour had passed, and the guests had almost left, so the chef served a few dishes and called a few guys to eat.

He stepped forward to see that there was meat, vegetables and soup, and the shopkeeper had always been stingy, and the food for them had been good, but he was so tired today that he really didn't have much appetite.

He walked to the door of the restaurant and looked again and again, and finally saw the figure of an acquaintance.

"Fourth Brother Zhao, I've been waiting for a long time, today's Sun Niangzi's side is also crowded, but I have been queuing for a long time." A woman in yellow handed him an oiled paper bag.

"Thank you, girl! Next time, I will change my brother and go to the queue to invite you to eat. Zhao Sihan took the thing with a smile and thanked him.

The two of them were polite, and Zhao Sicai hurriedly entered the door to get the dishes and chopsticks, and said that he was so bad that he heard the little girl in the rice shop next door say that she was going to buy tofu fruit in the morning, and she helped buy some on her behalf, otherwise it would be enough to queue up.

As soon as I opened the oiled paper, the smell of tofu and chili peppers came to my nose.

"Wow! It's so fragrant, it's Sun Niangzi's tofu again, right? I said, why do you wait outside the door for a long time and don't come to eat, this is to eat alone! A fellow came up and put his nose to the oiled paper and sniffed and sniffed.

"Go, go," Zhao Si immediately stepped sideways, hid the oiled paper bag in his arms, and said disgustedly: "If you want to eat and buy it yourself, it's hard to queue up."

"Cut, stingy! I'll buy it myself! The man pursed his lips, grabbed the rice and turned and walked away.

Now you can eat it steadily, Zhao Si poured the tofu fruit into the bowl, and just picked up the chopsticks and was about to put them into his mouth, when a face came over in front of him.

"Hehe, shopkeeper, I'll go to eat after I eat these two pieces, it won't be wasted, don't worry." Zhao Si snorted haha, and said cautiously, although this shopkeeper is not stingy, he hates wasting food the most.

"What did you just say about Sun Niangzi's tofu, is it famous?" Zhang Hongsheng stared at the tofu in the bowl, and it seemed to be unremarkable.

"The shopkeeper doesn't know, recently you have been going to the capital intermittently these days, and a new hot food stall has opened in the west market, which is to make this tofu fruit, and the daily business is called a boom." Zhao Si said as he took a bite of the tofu fruit.

Seeing the spicy sauce flowing out of the tofu slices, Zhang Hongsheng's eyes showed surprise, so it was.

"Zhao Si, can I try a piece?"

Zhao Si raised his head aggrievedly, the corners of his mouth were still stained with spicy juice, and he said with a sad face: "Shopkeeper, this is so difficult to queue......

Zhang Hongsheng couldn't cry or laugh, this gluttonous guy... He immediately turned around and went to the counter, and when he came back, he had more copper coins in his hand.

Spread out his palms and said, "How about these." ”

Zhao Si glanced at it and quickly took the money, swooped and ran to the kitchen, shouting, "I'll take the bowl with you!" "Ten yuan, I can buy two more pieces of tofu fruit tomorrow.

Zhang Hongsheng touched the mustache on his lips, shook his head and smiled.

On the other side, under the scorching sun, Sun Yunniang, who had just finished her work, found a shady corner and was sitting on a small wooden bench to rest, her flushed cheeks were the masterpiece of sunbathing all day.

took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat beads on his sideburns, but the sweat on the vest couldn't be wiped off, and he couldn't help frowning.

In ancient times, it was really troublesome to have no weather forecast, and in the feudal era, you could not take off your coat at will like in modern times.

was so hot that she was impetuous, and a cool fan came to her body, which was really comfortable.

"Lady, is it cooler?"

As soon as Sun Yunniang looked up, she saw a little brother holding a fan.

It turned out to be an old customer, and she smiled slightly: "It's Brother Zhao, are you here to buy tofu fruit?" It's sold out today, so come back tomorrow. ”

Zhao Si grinned, and instantly laughed out of eight big teeth, "Hehe, Sun Niangzi, I don't buy food, I just look at this point and come to find you on behalf of our shopkeeper." ”

"Your shopkeeper? Looking for me? Sun Yunniang was puzzled, she only heard someone call this little brother Zhao Si, so she remembered him, after all, this name was an existence that wanted to laugh when she heard it in her previous life.

It's just that I don't know who the shopkeeper of his family is.

Zhao Si hurriedly explained: "Mrs. Sun doesn't know, my shopkeeper runs a restaurant, saying that he wants to talk to you about some business, so let me invite you." ”

Sun Yunniang's face was even more puzzled, "Talking about business? What kind of business can you negotiate with a stall like mine? ”

"I don't know the specifics, I just said that I ate your tofu fruit, I am very interested in the ingredients, invite the lady to come over and talk in detail, if the lady does not agree, it doesn't matter, just drink a cup of tea and make friends."

Hearing him say politely, Sun Yunniang also slowly put away her guard, thought about it for a while, and then had a plan with a turn of her eyes.

She actually has some new ideas in her heart recently, and it's okay to go and see it.

Seeing that the other party did not object, Zhao Si happily helped her collect the stall.

***

When Sun Yunniang was led into the door of the restaurant by Xiao Er, she subconsciously looked up, "Fumanlou?" ”

How can it be so familiar?

After glancing at the counter of the restaurant again, she remembered, wasn't this the first restaurant she had been to when she first came to Qingyan Town?

It is said to be the largest restaurant in the entire Qingyan Town.

She is quite impressed with this store, at least the service attitude is quite good.

"Dare to ask if this is Mrs. Sun." A middle-aged man walked out head-on.

This woman was very different from what he imagined the village girl to look like.

Although a blue-gray cloth skirt is no different from an ordinary peasant woman, it can be seen closely that the skin is beautiful and the facial features are beautiful.

Moreover, the wise and slightly cold temperament in her eyes is also far from the identity of the village girl.

In just a moment, Zhang Hongsheng withdrew his gaze and arched his hand towards her with a smile.

Sun Yunniang smiled at the corner of her mouth and saluted the other party back, "Good shopkeeper Zhang." ”

On the way here, the broken-mouthed Zhao Si almost told her the location of the ancestral grave of Zhang Hongsheng's family, and the basic information was also a rough idea.

The shopkeeper of this chapter is also a self-made business, and it took nearly forty years to stabilize this restaurant, and it can be regarded as a young man in the era of hard work and progress in ancient times.

But at this age, the man is not as fat and deformed as his peers, he is thin but does not look weak, but the whole person looks energetic.

In addition to the two mustaches on her mouth, it makes people a little dramatic, which reminds her of the four-eyebrow Lu Xiaofeng in the Gu Long novel she read as a child.

Zhang Hongsheng didn't know Sun Yunniang's out-of-the-box thoughts, he only stared curiously at the stall in her hand, and exclaimed: "This is Sun Niangzi's hot food stall, it's really as exquisite as the legend, I am often not in Qingyan Town for a while, and when I come back, the stalls on the street have changed, and then I heard Zhao Si say that everyone is imitating the lady's doing." ”

In fact, every time she was praised for the car, Sun Yunniang was a little embarrassed, and secretly opened the plug-in, others thought it was smart, and she was really a little embarrassed, "The shopkeeper has won the award, this is not my own creation, but also a chance to meet the guidance of a master." ”

He nodded, but secretly admired the sincerity of this girl, and immediately led the other party into a private room.

Zhao Si quickly served a pot of tea with his hands and feet and poured it for the two.

The fresh fragrance of tea gradually overflowed, Sun Yunniang couldn't help but pick up the tea cup, blew it, took a sip, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hehe, yes, Sun Niangzi, this is the best hair tip in the capital that the shopkeeper usually only uses to entertain distinguished guests, it's precious!" Zhao Si grinned and grinned his eight-petal teeth again.

"It's really superb, although I don't know anything about tea, but I also taste unusual, and the shopkeeper is really polite." She clenched her fists and thanked the shopkeeper.

"Dude, you're talking a little exaggerated, don't worry about it, lady." Zhang Hongsheng gave Zhao Si a look, closed the door of the private room with a clear understanding, and retreated.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, then I'll get straight to the point first, I heard that you want to talk about business, but I wonder what kind of business I can talk about as a street vendor." Sun Yunniang was neither humble nor arrogant, and said with a smile.

Zhang Hongsheng raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, he didn't expect this woman to speak so simply and straightforwardly, and nodded appreciatively in an instant: "If the lady is really a cheerful person, then I won't beat around the bush, in the water of your tofu fruit, there are two ingredients that I have never eaten in Nanchu, one seems to be a spice, and the other is an ingredient, I don't know if it is." ”

Sun Yunniang nodded: "Not bad." ”

Zhang Hongsheng continued to ask in a tentative tone: "So, can the ingredients and ingredients of the two flavors be sold to me?" Maybe... If the lady is willing, I am also interested in the method of making tofu fruit and the secret recipe for dipping water. ”
