Chapter Twenty-Four: The Smell Is Amazing
On the Xie family's stall.
Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Zhang were busy.
They didn't expect that the popularity of cold noodles and lo mei was even greater than that of cold noodles and ice powder.
The jelly was only tasted today, but none of the people who had eaten it said anything bad.
I asked when I would buy it.
At first, everyone saw that it was made by pigs, and they were a little disdainful, but according to what the red beans said in advance, they also cut a part of it and tasted it.
Indeed, whoever has entered his mouth will not go back empty-handed.
For a while, even the ice powder fell out of favor.
"Don't worry, you can't buy it today, it's still there tomorrow."
"This is a jelly, and it hasn't been sold yet, but you can try a piece for free."
"This is your lo-mei, a ten-penny portion, you can take it."
In less than half an hour, the jelly and lo-mei brought over today were all swept away.
I can finally take a break.
"Aunt Li, I'm really embarrassed today, and I'm bothering you to help."
Zhang said to Aunt Li with a grateful face.
Aunt Li came to buy ice powder with a few neighbors today, and when everyone saw something new, they immediately tasted it.
As a result, this time I tried it, and I was captured by the taste of lo-mei and jelly.
Standing in front of the stall at the moment, they started talking, and it attracted a lot of customers.
Aunt Li saw that there were only Mrs. Xie and Zhang's family, Brother Tuan'er, and she was really busy, so she simply stayed to help.
"You're welcome, I just ate two more bites of this new thing than others."
"How did you say your red bean's brain grows, and why did she come up with this strange thing?"
Aunt Li is really envious of the Zhang family having such a capable daughter.
compared a lot of male babies.
I don't know who will have this blessing in the future?
It's a pity that her grandson is about the same age as Brother Tuan'er, so he doesn't have a chance.
When Zhang heard Aunt Li say this, he was also a little proud in his heart.
Who doesn't like to hear compliments on their children?
But you still have to be modest.
"Where, where. It's a little stronger than the average. ”
The smug expression on his face was not hidden at all.
Mrs. Xie came over with something at this time and interrupted the idle conversation between the two:
"Aunt her, this is a piece of cold powder specially reserved for you, go back and mix it with seasonings to eat."
"If you don't want to eat cold salad, just cut the cold powder into small pieces and fry it to eat."
Aunt Li didn't expect this unexpected joy in the end.
Although I was full of joy in my heart, I was a little embarrassed in the end, so I pushed the cold powder back.
"Old sister, I can't take this, how can I take things for nothing."
said so, but Aunt Li was really reluctant, she had never eaten this thing before.
But I can't do cheap things myself.
"Look at your kindness, take it quickly." Mrs. Xie knew that the other party was thin-skinned.
What's so embarrassing about this, if she was herself, Ma Yu took it.
Only with thick skin can you eat well.
When Hongdou and Xiaoya came back, they saw this scene on the stall.
Grandma took the cold powder and handed it to Aunt Li's hand, and Aunt Li pushed it back with Grandma's hand.
One insists on giving, and the other does not receive.
Brother Tuan looked at the two old men with a confused face on the side.
Zhang smiled and cleaned up the table on the side.
It's like a sketch.
"Grandma, mother, brother Tuan'er, we're back."
Red Bean stepped forward pretending not to know.
"Aunt Li, it's so nice to see you, thank you for coming to take care of my family's business again."
Aunt Li heard the words of Hongdou's welcome, and her heart was comfortable, look at this girl, she speaks so well,
"I bought a bowl of ice noodles for my grandson, and this lo-mei, I saw that it was good, and I bought one. That's it. ”
After speaking, Aunt Li was about to leave, but was stopped by Hongdou.
"Aunt Li, you forgot something." Hongdou took the jelly in her grandmother's hand and stuffed it to Aunt Li.
"Outsiders can try the new food at home for free. You are so familiar with our family, no one will be missing you. ”
When Aunt Li heard this, she really didn't want to refuse, but people took herself as an acquaintance, and her feelings were naturally different.
"That... You're welcome? ”
"No matter how polite you are, I won't be able to go to your house in the future."
Hongdou went to Xie's house before to get a trap and a kitchen knife.
I may have to continue to buy pots in the future.
"How did you eat grandma?"
Aunt Li responded happily: "I know, I know." Hehe. ”
"You just go back with it, and when it's empty, you can send the bowl back."
Walking back all the way, I saw more people on the road, and I could help with more publicity.
Ahem, of course, she also sincerely gave it to Aunt Li.
What else can Aunt Li say, she naturally responded, happily walked briskly, and went back with her things.
When she got home, Aunt Li's daughter-in-law had already cooked the meal for a while, and the family was waiting for her.
"Grandma, you're finally back, and I'm hungry."
When the little grandson saw his grandmother, he ran over with his little short legs and hugged Aunt Li's calves, and said coquettishly.
"Milk's good grandson, don't you dare to starve you, see what delicious food grandma has brought you?"
Aunt Li put things on the table and hugged her grandson to look at them.
"Mother, didn't you buy ice powder, what is this?" The daughter-in-law, Li, is the niece of Aunt Li.
The two get along well on weekdays, and when they have doubts, they ask directly.
The sons on the side, Zhang Dazhuang and Old Man Zhang, looked at the things on the table with the same curiosity.
"Look at the few of you who don't know what to see." Aunt Li proudly glanced at several large and small families in the family.
In the end, it was the grandson who asked ironly, and Aunt Li looked at her grandson's face before she said compassionately:
"This is lo-mei, and the taste is better than that of restaurants."
"It's called jelly. Haven't heard of it, have you? The Xie family hasn't started selling new things yet, so they just looked at my face and gave a piece. ”
"It can be eaten mixed or fried."
I've never seen the old man live so big, but this lo-mei...
"What kind of lo-mei is this, isn't it just pig water? What's the matter, the family has no money? Eat this stinky thing? ”
If it was usual, Aunt Li would have gone back a long time ago when she heard Lao Zhang's words like this, but today she really didn't want to deal with this unfortunate plan.
"Iron plate mother, you go and get the bowl and take things out, this is the Xie family's bowl, and it has to be returned when it is empty."
Xiao Li snorted.
Quickly packed up the new dishes brought back by her mother-in-law, she didn't care about the lawsuit of the two old people, she wanted to eat now.
"Good grandson, come and grandma to feed you a mouthful of cold noodles, and then take a bite of this pig's head meat."
The iron plate is the age of the tiger's head, eating delicious things, and looking at it with a smile in his eyes, not to mention how cute it is.
With that satisfied look, Xiao Li and Zhang Dazhuang couldn't help but stretch out their chopsticks and put them in their mouths.
Well, the smell is absolute.
Old man Zhang watched the family eating fragrantly, and couldn't help but wonder, is the pig in the water so delicious?
He tasted a bite of cold noodles first, and it tasted really comfortable, and it tasted good.
The food sold by the Xie family is really seductive, and the mouths of the family are about to grow to his house.
Just when he wanted to taste the lo-mei again, he was stopped by his wife, son and daughter-in-law.
"Dad, don't eat this pig when it goes into the water, you eat your own dishes."
"Yes, old man, you have worked hard, how can you let you eat pigs and go into the water?"
Old man Zhang: ...
Old man Zhang saw that everyone was sincere, so he changed the direction of the chopsticks, but why did he always feel that something was wrong?
When Aunt Li saw it, she couldn't hold back her laughter, this dead old man, let him be stubborn, he deserved it.
But today, in the end, the Xie family's love has to be returned.
After a while, she took her daughter-in-law to visit the neighbors' houses.
Good things can't be tucked away.
