A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

The next morning, Aunt Liu arrived at the Leng family early and helped load the prepared ingredients onto the car. Then the group sat on the ox cart and headed towards the town.

When they arrived at the shop, in addition to the usual food, Leng Yan looked at the half basket of leeks and prepared to bake some leek boxes to sell.

When Leng Yan thought of the golden and crispy fried chive dumplings, with the crispy crust and the tender and crispy chive filling, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

She started working right away. She first cut the leeks into small pieces, added some soybean oil to lock in the moisture, then fried the eggs, mixed them together to make the filling, rolled out the dough to wrap the filling, and put it in the pan to fry, all in one smooth move.

In just a short while, the fragrant chive dumplings will be ready for serving.

He didn't care whether it was hot or cold and served one to each of his family members, including Aunt Liu.

"Let's taste it and eat something to fill our stomachs. We'll be busy when the guests come."

After Leng Yan finished speaking, he took the first bite of the leek pie and found it to be crispy and fresh. It was absolutely delicious.

After the others took a bite, they all ate in silence, it was so delicious!

Just as they finished eating, the aroma of the freshly-cooked leek dumplings was still wafting from the pot. Seeing this, the diners who came for breakfast asked what new product was available.

After Leng Yan explained with a smile, some diners bought some out of curiosity to try it. After taking a bite, they felt that the taste was so crispy, fresh and delicious, and it was a flavor that they would fall in love with instantly after tasting it.

"Hey, boss, you have a new product. Please pack two for me to try. Also pack two of each of the pan-fried buns, sauce-flavored pancakes, and vegetable dragons."

The person who was speaking was Boss Tang, the first customer of Lengji Snack Shop and also a repeat customer who came almost every day.

"Uncle Tang, why did you buy so much today? Did you pack some for your family as well?"

Leng Yan saw that it was Boss Tang, and seeing that he bought a lot, she greeted him with a smile.

Boss Tang chuckled, "Eat it all, eat it all. To be honest with you, little boss, part of this breakfast is for me, and part is for the nobles on the ship."

It turned out that Boss Tang had some connections at the dock, and he knew people among several merchants who frequently went out on ships, so he got a job as an errand runner.

Frequently delivering messages, buying things, and running errands are not very complicated jobs, but they do require connections and a versatile personality.

Leng Yan understood and responded, thinking that this was similar to running errands for someone in his previous life.

After seeing off Boss Tang, business in the shop continued.

The chive dumplings in the morning were very popular, so Leng Yan wanted to serve a few new dishes for lunch.

After all, she didn't have time to buy a rabbit from the space yesterday because she was saving someone, so there would be one less dish of stir-fried rabbit for lunch today.

So she took advantage of her break to go to the vegetable market.

Seeing this, Leng Huai and Leng Cang didn't want their niece (sister) to work too hard, so they carried the baskets and went with her to help carry things.

The three of them walked and strolled along the way. There were more spring vegetables. Leng Yan looked here and there and unexpectedly saw a stall selling yam.

Leng Yan was surprised and immediately went forward to ask about the price.

"Boss, how much do you sell yam for?"

Seeing that there is business coming, the boss smiled enthusiastically

"This yam is three cents per pound. How much do you want? We dig these wild yams in the mountains in the autumn and winter before the New Year.

The ones we planted ourselves haven't grown up yet.

We dug this wild yam and stored it in the cellar all winter, just to sell it now. Look, it’s still fresh and delicious.”

The vendor boasted that eating more yam is good for the body and asked them to buy some to try.

"Okay, then weigh thirty kilograms for me first. If it tastes good, I will come back to buy from you in the future."

Leng Yan wanted to buy yam when she saw it, and after hearing his introduction, she wanted to buy it even more.

She spoke lightly, but the vendor was so startled that he slipped.

"How much?"

As he spoke, he looked behind them, "Where are your parents?"

After all, thirty kilograms at once is not a small amount of money, and he didn't dare to sell it without an adult present.

"Don't worry, uncle. We are not trying to make fun of you. Just weigh thirty kilograms for us and we will pay you whatever you want."

Seeing this, Leng Huai spoke up from the side.

He was already 14 years old just after the Chinese New Year. In addition, he had eaten well and grown taller during this period, looking like a little adult.

Seeing this, the merchant weighed the goods for them skeptically. Even after Leng Yan paid ninety copper coins, he still felt it was a little unreal.

After all, the items sold at the vegetable market stall are small orders, but he just opened today, so even if he sells a large order, how can he not be happy.

So he quickly grabbed two more yams from the stall and put them into Leng Yan's basket.

He said with a smile: "You bought a lot, this is for you, remember to come and buy more often after you finish eating."

After Leng Yan and the others expressed their gratitude, they carried their baskets and went to the pork stall.

It was from his house that I bought the pig's head and offal yesterday. Leng Yan saw that there were still some today, so he asked for them as well, and waited to take them home in the evening to clean them and braise them.

Thinking about the yam he bought today, Leng Yan thought the spare ribs were good, so he weighed ten pounds of spare ribs and prepared to go back and make some steamed spare ribs with yam.

In fact, steamed pork ribs with taro would taste better, but the taro in the ground has not grown yet, so let's use yam for now.

After buying most of the things, several people carried their things back to the shop.

Seeing that it was getting late and there was no time to rest, Leng Yan started to prepare dishes without stopping.

With the help of Zhang Cuiniang, Leng Su and Aunt Liu, the meal was cooked quickly.

For a simpler dish, like scrambled eggs with leeks, which will be served today, Leng Yan asked her mother to try to cook it.

When Leng Yan was cooking last night, Zhang Cuiniang was watching from the side and secretly took note of the key points.

Now, with the encouragement of his daughter, he cooked it in one go.

Seeing this, Leng Yan took some food with chopsticks and found it tasted very good. She kept praising her mother for her skill.

While Zhang Cuiniang breathed a sigh of relief, Leng Yan took her mother to make steamed pork ribs with yam.

The ribs have been marinated with seasonings in advance, and now you just need to put them on a plate and steam them.

Taking advantage of the break, several people began to wash and peel the yam. Special attention must be paid when peeling so as not to let the juice on the skin get on the skin, otherwise it will cause itching, redness, swelling and discomfort.

After the yam is prepared, you can change the knife and cut it into dice. Then put a layer of yam on the bottom of the plate and arrange the ribs on top.

Then put it into the boiling steamer and steam it for about a quarter of an hour, and the fragrant steamed yam spareribs will be ready.

The ribs made in this way are tender, firm, juicy and tasty, while the yam is crispy, delicious and refreshing.

When the delicious food came out of the pot, several people in the kitchen couldn't help swallowing their saliva.

Leng Yandan picked out some with chopsticks and left them for everyone to taste, and took the rest to the counter in the lobby.
