Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

Zhang Sheng also arrived early today, lined up at the front, and received a wooden plaque with the clock number written on the back and the number three written on the front.

My second brother spent some extra money to have a carpenter and his son rush to make this sign. Each sign has a serial number written on it, and whoever has the earlier number can buy it first.

After the wooden signs were distributed, everyone dispersed and came back to buy at the appointed time.

After the wooden signs were distributed, the second sister-in-law got up. She said embarrassedly, "I don't know why I've been getting sleepier these days. I was fine yesterday, but today I can't even get up."

Seeing that her younger sister had already prepared several buckets of pig offal, she felt even more embarrassed. She went to catch a chicken in the yard and prepared to kill it for stewing. She took a knife and cut open the chicken's throat.

Unexpectedly, she felt a little uncomfortable when she smelled the blood, but because she got up late today and let her younger sister do all the work, she felt embarrassed and had to force herself to kill the chicken.

Zhong Ruyi quickly asked her second sister-in-law to get up. She was a little suspicious and couldn't help but ask, "Second sister-in-law, you are not pregnant, are you?"

The love of sour food, the drowsiness and the discomfort caused by the smell of blood are indeed very similar to the symptoms of pregnancy.

The second sister-in-law was also stunned and almost dropped the chicken in her hand, but she felt that it was unlikely. She was injured when she gave birth to Xiaohe, and the doctor said it would be difficult for her to get pregnant again.

But, but what if she is really pregnant? She was suddenly panicked. Zhong Ruyi took the chicken from her hand and asked her to sit for a while. When she recovered, she could go to the clinic to check.

The second brother came in with the wooden sign and saw his wife sitting on a stool with a bad look on her face. The younger sister was holding a cup of tea for her. "What's wrong?"

He walked closer and saw that his wife's face was pale and she was speechless. He turned to ask his younger sister, "Little sister, what happened to your second sister-in-law? Why does she look so bad all of a sudden?"

Zhong Ruyi said, "My second sister-in-law was killing a chicken just now, and she felt uncomfortable when she smelled the blood. I asked her to sit down and rest first, and then we can go to the clinic to see a doctor when it opens."

The second brother was also very anxious when he heard this. Fortunately, the pig offal had been processed. Zhong Ruyi asked her second brother to go and see if the clinic was open. If it was open, he should take the second sister-in-law there first, as she would still be in charge of the store's affairs.

The second brother nodded and walked out quickly. Zhong Ruyi squatted down to prepare the chicken and put it in the pot to stew. The second brother just came back and said, "The clinic is open, let's go over there."

"Yes, your health is the most important thing. Let's go to the clinic and ask the doctor what he says. Maybe you are too tired these days. I will take care of the store. These two pots of stewed food will not be ready so quickly. They may not be ready when you come back. Go first."

After the two of them left, Zhong Ruyi went back to the kitchen to watch the fire. The door panels had been removed, and the fragrance in the kitchen was blown away by the wind.

Zhongji's braised food has been sold for more than half a month. Normally, it would sell out early and close the shop for a break. Passersby could not even smell the smell. They could only look at the long queue in front of the Zhongji shop. Those who did not like to watch the hustle and bustle would just take a look and leave.

Some people asked and found out that they were selling braised offal. Although they felt uncomfortable, they couldn't buy it and were still tempted.

Today the door was wide open, and the big pot in the kitchen was bubbling with steam. The rich aroma went right under people's noses. Especially when Zhong Ruyi added a handful of firewood, he would open the lid of the pot to take a look, or stir it to see how the fire was.

The aroma of the braised food was already very strong, and now with the door wide open, the aroma was everywhere, attracting passers-by to stop walking. They stood straight at the door of Zhongji, shouting if the boss was there.

Zhong Ruyi heard some noise outside, put down the firewood in his hand and went out.

When passers-by saw someone coming out, they hurriedly asked: "Little girl, what are you selling? Why does it smell so good?"

"We have braised offal, braised chicken and braised tofu." Zhong Ruyi said, "This is our family's secret recipe. We are the only one in town that has it. A spoonful of braised offal costs ten cents, a spoonful of braised chicken costs twenty cents, a spoonful of braised tofu costs six cents, and a braised egg costs two cents."

"Then please give me two spoonfuls of braising liquid to try." The passerby said greedily.

"Sorry sir, it's not ready yet."

Passersby smacked their lips. It smelled so good, but it still hadn't healed yet? Or it had healed. It would have made people faint from the fragrance.

The passerby was about to ask when it would be ready when he heard the pretty girl in front of him say, "And we are now selling it with brand names. People with brand names can get it first, and after those with brand names have bought it, the rest will be available for those without brand names."

"We have braised three pots of offal today. After the customers with wooden signs have sold out, there should be some left. You can come back then. Just wait until after noon and these pots of offal will be almost done. You can come back then. You don't have to wait here."

Passerby: ...

But he was reluctant to leave. After thinking about it, he found a nearby shop selling sesame cakes and went in to eat sesame cakes while waiting. While waiting, he casually asked the owner of the sesame cake shop, "Have you tried the braised food from the shop next door? It doesn't smell good but tastes good, right?"

The proprietress of the pancake shop glanced at the passerby, who looked quite young, and said, "Those of us who live nearby have eaten it before. Even if we don't eat it every day, we go to buy it every two days. Fortunately, we live nearby and it is convenient to buy it. Look, we got a wooden sign this morning, so we can go and buy it at noon." The proprietress showed the wooden sign in her hand.

"In fact, I knew a new food shop had opened in town a long time ago, but I heard that it was selling pig offal, and I thought that such pickled things would be sold, so I never thought of going here. It was not until today that they suddenly opened the store, and when the fragrance came out, I knew why Zhongji's business was so good every day."

The passerby started chatting with the proprietress of the sesame seed bun shop, otherwise his mind would be full of the aroma of the braised food. Let me tell you, just with this aroma, the sesame seed bun in his hand became delicious!

Passersby felt that the longer they waited, the more delicious the smell became. More and more people came into the sesame cake shop and sat down to eat a sesame cake. The couple who owned the sesame cake shop were very happy: ever since Zhong Ji next door started selling braised food, their business has also improved.

Before the braised food in the pot was ready, my second brother and his wife came back with a few packets of medicine in their hands. My second brother's face was beaming with joy, and my second sister-in-law also looked shy and happy.

Aunt Chen happened to come out after sending a customer who was buying tea. Seeing the two people coming back from outside at this time, she couldn't help but ask what happened.

The second brother bared his teeth and was extremely happy: "Yu Niang is pregnant. The doctor said she is two months pregnant!"

What! ?

The second sister-in-law is pregnant. Zhong Ruyi heard this when she came out of the kitchen and was so happy.

The second sister-in-law suppressed her smile, her cheeks reddened, "I thought I was tired during this period, but I didn't expect that I was pregnant."

She thought about the fact that her period had not come last month. At that time, she was worried about the poor business in the store and thought it was normal to postpone it for a month. Just now, when the doctor asked her about this month's period in the clinic, she remembered that her period had not come yet.

After taking her pulse, the doctor told her that she was two months pregnant. She almost cried with joy!

Xiao He is already six years old and will be seven after the Chinese New Year. She has always thought that she can't have any more children. Her mother-in-law and sister-in-law comforted her and said that it was good to have Xiao He alone, and they would not be afraid of being partial to him in the future.

But she thought that if she could give Xiaohe another brother or sister, Xiaohe would not be left alone without brothers or sisters to help her when she and her husband were old. Unexpectedly, she became pregnant again after many years. It must be that God had mercy on her.
