"Grandma, mother, let's just add another bucket of cold noodles to sell, and the rest will be the same."

Seeing that Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Zhang wanted to refute it out loud, Hongdou didn't plan to give them a chance to speak:

"The daily things have to be freshly made to be fresh, and the materials have to be replenished when they are sold out, which is a lot of things."

"We have to make money on the premise of ensuring good health."

Hongdou thought about it carefully, their small business has just begun, and everyone will inevitably want to eat something fresh.

After a while, fewer people will buy.

After all, there are still many ordinary people in the town, and their purchasing power is not so strong.

Although Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Zhang were distressed that they would make a lot less money, they were more willing to listen to Hongdou's words.

"Okay, listen to my granddaughter."

"By the way, Bean, we'll have to buy stone and flour later."

"Confirm with your mother what is missing at home, and we will buy it back all at once."

After Mrs. Xie finished speaking, she turned her gaze to the little girl, and then continued:

"And this little girl, I have to go to Lizheng to help ask who it is."

"This girl has helped us a lot today, we have to arrange it properly."

Hongdou looked out at the sky, the time was indeed not early, and as soon as he did it, it was almost dark.

"Then let's eat first, I've been tired for so long, I can't do things hungry."

There is no opinion on this.

Thinking that the little girl should not stay long, Zhang decided to cook some hearty meals.

Your own cold noodles must be indispensable, stir-fry a few more dishes, and add the ice powder left at noon, and it's almost the same.

However, considering the girl's good appetite, Zhang quickly pasted a few pieces of dough as a staple food.

At the dinner table, everyone stuffed food with great interest, and even their appetites, which had deteriorated due to the summer, suddenly improved.

Only the little girl looked preoccupied, although she was eating a lot, her face was lonely.

However, everyone else was fighting with food at the moment, and with her head down, no one noticed it for a while.

After the meal, Hongdou and Xie Pozi packed two large bowls of ice powder and took the little girl out.

------------

Li Zheng's surname is Li, and he lives on the biggest street in the town, and because of the convenience of his identity, he has lived a good life over the years.

Although he took care of his own family a little, he was generally fair, and the position of Li Zheng was successfully held for many years.

When Hongdou and Xie Pozi came to the door with people, Li happened to be resting under the vegetable shelf in the yard.

His children are now married, and even have grandchildren, and the children are filial piety on weekdays, and life is really comfortable.

Hearing someone knocking on the door outside the door, Jinbao, the little grandson who was playing in the yard, consciously ran to open the door without his grandfather's instructions.

"Are you looking for my grandfather?" Jinbao is six years old this year, and his family is also preparing to send him to school this year.

He looked at the women outside the door, and knew that most of them had come to find his grandfather, after all, his grandfather was honest.

It's the biggest official in town.

"Little brother, hello, my name is Hongdou, and my home is in the town."

"You're so cute, can you tell me your name?"

Red Bean spoke to Jinbao with a friendly face.

A child at this age already understands a lot of things, and he doesn't like to be ignored by others.

Sure enough, when Jinbao heard Hongdou praise him for being cute, he scratched his head a little embarrassed:

"Hello Sister Hongdou, my name is Jinbao, is there anything wrong with you coming to my house?"

"Campbell, Campbell, what a good name."

"Sister, this is an important matter, I have to ask your grandfather to pay attention, can you help us go in and say something?"

Jin Bao agreed, and directly took the three of them into the courtyard, and Li Zheng also tidied up his clothes at this time, so as not to be rude.

"Brother Lizheng, don't be surprised to come to the door rashly."

Xie Pozi greeted with a smile on her face, and as she spoke, she took out a bowl of ice powder from the red bean basket and put it on the small table.

"This is a new food made by home, called ice powder, you can try it."

Li Zheng was a little curious when he saw the ice powder in the bowl, he really hadn't seen this thing before.

It's shiny, and there are toppings on it, so it looks good.

Not to mention the old man Li Zheng, Jinbao on the side had his eyes lit up the moment he saw the ice powder.

He secretly tugged at the hem of his grandfather's clothes, suggesting that he wanted to eat.

The little grandson wants to eat, and Li Zheng naturally won't refuse, but now that the guests are still there, he has to see what is going on first.

"I really haven't seen this thing before, so I'm welcome? Ha ha. ”

Xie Pozi hurriedly claimed that there was no need to be polite, and then explained her intentions:

"Li Zheng, I'm here today for this little girl."

Mrs. Xie took advantage of the situation and pulled the little girl and took her two steps forward.

"This is what I picked up when I was picking wild vegetables, can you show it, do you look familiar?"

"If someone gets lost, the family will have to be anxious."

When Li Zheng heard Xie Pozi's intention, he couldn't help but straighten his face;

This little girl looks like she's in her early teens.,It shouldn't be lost.,Could it be.。。。

"Little girl, do you remember where your house is?"

Li Zheng tried to make herself look kind, but the little girl shook her head and lowered her head, as if she didn't want to say more.

What does this mean?

"Grandpa Lizheng, she can't speak, and she hasn't squeaked since she came to my house yesterday."

Red Bean felt that there was some trouble in this matter today.

It's also that they want to go wrong, Li Zheng is not only in charge of the town, but he is also helping to take care of the villages under the town.

Even if it was someone in a village, he couldn't know everything.

"Grandpa Lizheng, you are tired to help ask, who has lost a child recently?"

This is a trivial matter for him, and he naturally has nothing to do.

In addition, he was also a little worried, afraid that the little girl would be trafficked;

If it happened in the radius under his management, it would also affect him.

"No problem, if it's really embarrassing, it's a big deal."

"I've been inquiring around for the past two days, and I've been looking for you for news."

However, it is also possible that it was deliberately sold by a ruthless family.

After all, in poor families, it is not uncommon for daughters to be sold.

"Then she's..."

When Mrs. Xie heard this, she was a little anxious.

She is also pitiful, and even grateful to this child, but it is really difficult to raise an extra mouth at home.

Hongdou understands grandma's worries, but they can't put people here.

They brought it back, and they helped us a lot today.

Don't look at Li Zheng's position, he is not even a petty official, but in this area, the power is not small.

Nor can they be offended.

"Thank you, Grandpa Lizheng, then let's bring people back first, if you inquire about the news, just let us know."

"We're selling snacks on the street these days, and you and Jinbao are welcome to come over."

Hongdou also specially ordered Jinbao, the old people feel sorry for their grandson, and it is always right to mention it more.
