Marrying a village tyrant husband with space, being spoiled by the in-laws

As expected of a century-old shop, Yikousu occupies three large storefronts. The overall decoration is also quite nice. You can smell the sweet aroma as soon as you enter the door.

"What would you like, sir?"

The waiter saw someone coming in, raised his eyelids and asked weakly.

"Do you have mooncakes here?"

Yu Suihuan was not very interested in other pastries, she just wanted to see what mooncakes of this era looked like.

"Of course we have mooncakes, freshly baked five-nut mooncakes, small ones cost 100 wen each, and large ones cost 200 wen each."

Seeing the mooncakes on the counter, she frowned slightly. They had no special shape and were average in size, with a word "Fu" printed on them in red.

“It’s quite expensive.”

Yu Suihuan muttered subconsciously, but when he thought about it, it should be so expensive. In ancient times, flour, eggs, sugar, walnuts, and peanuts were not cheap.

The waiter couldn't help but let out a sarcastic smile when he heard this.

The two of them didn't look like they were short of money, but who would have known that they were two poor fellows who complained that mooncakes worth only a few hundred coins were too expensive.

Yu Suihuan turned around and looked at other cakes. There were not many styles, only a few traditional ones, nothing new.

But even if it is of this kind, in this era only dignitaries and wealthy people can afford it. Ordinary people really can't afford it.

"Little Second Brother, the red bean and mung bean mooncakes that my wife ordered are ready."

A little girl with two buns on her head walked in carrying an exquisite food box.

"It has been prepared early this morning. It is made with the best beans and the skins have been carefully peeled. Miss Lianxiang, please wait a moment while I go get it."

The waiter smiled obsequiously, ran to the inner room, and soon brought out two plates.

There are ten mooncakes on each plate. There is nothing fancy about them, except for a red pattern printed on them, which is not much different from the five-nut mooncakes.

The waiter wrapped the mooncake in oil paper and put it in the food box.

"I'll give you some silver."

The little girl threw down a piece of silver and turned to walk out.

"Miss Lianxiang, take care. Just tell me what you need. I will definitely use the best ingredients."

The waiter just stood there with his head tilted, and even after the customer had gone a long way, he was still standing at the door to see them off.

Yu Suihuan and others turned around and asked again.

"Little Brother, how much is the mooncake that girl bought just now?"

"That's a custom-made red bean paste and green bean paste mooncake. One piece costs four hundred coins. We don't have it in stock. The minimum order is ten coins."

His tone was full of impatience. The two men didn't buy anything and kept asking the price. It was obvious that they couldn't afford it.

She saw all of this. The pastries in this shop were unoriginal and unappetizing. Even mooncakes of that quality had to be custom-made.

The pastries were not very good, and the waiter was bullying the customers, acting as if they couldn't afford it and speaking in a sarcastic manner.

She pointed to a type of osmanthus cake and asked again.

"How did you sell this?"

The waiter hurried forward with a look of disgust.

"You can't touch this cake with your hands. How can I sell it if it gets dirty? This sweet-scented osmanthus cake costs fifty coins a piece. How many do you want?"

His tone was full of impatience.

"Pack all of these for me, I want them all!"

She was so angry that she almost laughed. She was so far away from the pastries, and with a waiter like this in the shop, the shop would be closed sooner or later.

Yu Suihuan took out a five-liang silver ingot from his sleeve and slapped it on the counter.

The waiter's eyes widened instantly. He thought he was a poor guy, but he turned out to be a wealthy customer.

He immediately took out a piece of oil paper from the counter with a smile on his face.

"I'll pack them all for you right away."

The waiter reached out to take the osmanthus cake.

"Hey...wait a minute, you can't touch this sweet-scented osmanthus cake with your hands. How can I eat it if you make it dirty? Forget it, I don't want it!"

After saying that, she put the silver away again and pulled Li Chengjin to leave the store.

This series of actions completely confused the waiter.

But on second thought, he couldn't refute it, it seemed to be true.

But he sold so many New Year cakes by hand!

Seeing that the person was stunned, Yu Suihuan continued speaking.

"I heard that Daoxiangzhai's cakes are delicious. It seems we have come to the wrong place. Husband, let's go!"

The two of them walked out of the store without looking back. With such a waiter, the store would go bankrupt sooner or later.

When the waiter realized what was happening, everyone had left and he was very angry.

Who is this person? Are you trying to play tricks on him?

No one has ever said so directly in their store that they are not as good as Daoxiangzhai.

Pooh!

They are two poor fellows and can't even afford any expensive pastries, so why are they pretending?

Maybe the two of them only had five taels of silver on them.

Yu Suihuan walked out of Yikousu's shop, feeling much better, with a smile on his face that never faded.

Haha, the waiter must have been very pissed off by her just now, and now he’s probably jumping up and down and cursing her in his heart.

The two drove the carriage to Daoxiangzhai again. This store was a little smaller than Yikousu's, but it was obvious that there were more varieties of pastries here, and they were beautifully displayed, which was pleasing to the eye.

The girl selling cakes was about thirteen or fourteen years old. She was neatly dressed and moved skillfully, giving off a capable vibe.

As soon as she saw the two people's carriage parked in front of the door, the girl immediately walked out from the counter with a smile on her face.

"Young lady, what would you like to eat? Come into the store and have a look. We have newly brewed osmanthus honey and white sugar glutinous rice cakes. Horse hoof pastry, open-mouthed, sweet and soft.

When the girl smiled, she had a pair of dimples on her face, which was very pleasing.

Just from this first impression, Daoxiangzhai gives people a much better feeling than Yikousu.

"Girl, do you have mooncakes here?"

"Yes, we have five-nut mooncakes, red bean paste mooncakes, mung bean paste mooncakes, and this year my mother developed a new mooncake with jujube paste filling. The filling is sweet and soft, and it's delicious."

The little girl warmly invited the two to go inside and patiently introduced each kind of pastry.

The mooncakes from Daoxiangzhai are about the same size as those from Yikousu.

The five-nut mooncake also has a red word "Fu" on it, and the others have a red pattern on them.

“How are these mooncakes sold?”

Yu Suihuan found that there were no patterns on any of the pastries.

"A small mooncake with five nuts costs 100 wen, and a large one costs 200 wen. A small mooncake with green bean paste, red bean paste, or jujube paste costs 300 wen, and a large one costs 400 wen."

"But if you buy any four mooncakes in our store, you can get a piece of white sugar glutinous rice cake for free. This sweet-scented osmanthus cake is also OK. As long as they are cakes of the same price, you can pick any one you want. I can get you any one you want."

The little girl has a good potential for business.

Although the prices are the same, Daoxiangzhai is much better than Yikousu. Not only is their attitude warm, they also give you an extra small piece of cake.

People who can afford to eat pastries every day may not mind this small piece of pastry, but the service attitude alone makes people feel comfortable.

This little girl has a future!
