I married a playboy at the beginning, and I changed my fate by eating delicious food
Chapter 58 Cold Drinks
An extra income is naturally a good thing for them.
Although it is not as much as what they earn from business, a mosquito leg is still meat.
The next day, the couple delivered the lemons on time.
"I wonder if you can take all of these." The man was a little reserved. Xu Si only bought half a basket yesterday, but he brought a whole basket today.
The woman was also a little nervous, not showing any signs of having quarreled the day before. "We picked the best ones from the trees. For the sake of freshness, we picked them this morning."
Xu Si took a look and found that each lemon was quite big, with no rotten parts and some dew drops on the surface.
"Okay, I'll take them all. You guys weigh them."
As she checked, the couple's eyes followed her movements closely, their hearts full of anticipation.
After hearing her answer, smiles immediately appeared on their faces.
"Okay," the man quickly took out the scale and showed it to Xu Si, "It's a little over 30 kilograms. I'll calculate it as 30 kilograms for you."
Xu Qi nodded, took out 30 cents and handed them to them, poured the lemons into his own basket, and was about to carry them into the house.
The woman asked carefully, "Girl, do you need this kind of fruit tomorrow?"
"It probably won't be needed tomorrow."
Only a little of the half basket yesterday was used, let alone the whole basket today.
Hearing Xu Si's answer, the woman felt a little disappointed, but she still tried to smile a little, "I see. If you still need it, come find us at the market. We usually sell vegetables there."
Xu Si nodded, feeling very uncomfortable. Although she wanted to help them, she really couldn't use that much money.
"Ah Si, why did you buy so many lemons? Won't they go bad?"
While Lou Yuexin was busy, she saw another basket on the ground and asked curiously.
"It's okay. This can be kept for at least half a month. Besides, I plan to make a drink out of it."
"What kind of drink?"
As Lou Yuexin asked the question, everyone stopped for a moment and looked towards Xu Si.
"It's just simple lemonade, sour and sweet."
It’s a pity there is no ice, otherwise it would be more cooling.
"Then you just do the cooking, and we'll take care of the food."
Xu Si thought that making lemonade was not difficult and there would be enough time to help with other things after he was done, so he nodded.
I picked 6 lemons at random, rubbed them with salt, washed them clean, discarded the heads and tails, cut them into thin slices and removed the seeds.
Since the iron pots were all in use, Xu Si added rock sugar and water to the casserole and simmered it over low heat. When white bubbles began to emerge, the syrup was ready.
Pour the hot syrup into a bowl with lemon slices, cover and let soak for a while.
He put a bucket of boiled water into the well to cool it down for later use, and then went on to do other things.
It is said that drinking more lemon water can make your skin whiter, but I don’t know if it’s true or not.
The bronze mirror was yellow and I couldn't tell what skin color my face was.
She stretched out her hand and turned it up and down. Hey, the back of her hand seemed to be a little white?
If you are not sure, just ask people, "Mom, have I become whiter?"
Hearing this, Lou Yuexin stared at her for a long time, "It seems so, but mother is with you every day, and I always feel that you have always been the same as now."
Well, Xu Si turned his gaze to Su Jinyue again.
"Well, he's indeed whiter than when he was selling things at the stall before." She has a physique that doesn't easily get tanned. She was quite surprised to see Xu Si tanned at first, but she didn't say anything because she was afraid of making Xu Si sad. Now at least he looks normal.
Xu Si couldn't help but touch his face. It was really good news.
Seeing how happy she was, Lou Yuexin also smiled, "Now we don't have to go out, we won't be exposed to the sun, and our skin will become even whiter."
“I think there must be another reason.”
"What is it?"
Xu Si pointed at the iron pot and said, "It's the steam in the pot."
"Steam can also make people white?"
Lou Yuexin was a little suspicious. She felt so hot that she felt as if she was put in a steamer and had to go out for some fresh air from time to time.
"Yes, do you feel that your skin has become smoother and softer recently?"
"It seems so," Su Jinyue said hesitantly. Some images came to her mind and her face turned red. She lowered her head quickly.
Shen Jingchuan, who was kneading noodles nearby, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when he saw this.
He had said last night that her face was as tender as a peeled egg, and he couldn't help but peck it a few times, but that was not something he could tell outsiders.
Lou Xinyue thought about it carefully and it seemed to be true. "It's similar to taking a hot spring bath. I remember that every time I took a bath, I would feel this way."
That’s right, they both use hot steam to raise the temperature of the skin, accelerate blood circulation, enhance metabolism, and help hydrate the skin.
However, Xu Si has never soaked in a hot spring. When she makes a lot of money, she will definitely try it.
After the lemon slices had been soaked for about an hour and a half, Xu Si took out eight cups that he had used to sell sour plum soup from the corner.
Put two slices of fresh lemon in each cup, add some syrup, and finally pour in cool water and stir with chopsticks.
"Everyone, have a cup each. If it's not enough, you can make more yourself."
Xu Si took a sip and found that it had the same flavor except without the ice.
The refreshing lemon water can help us wake up from our busy schedules.
While the customers were just starting to grab the cold dishes and were not in a hurry to get the cold noodles, Xu Si was thinking about the dog and came out in advance with the steamed buns and waited.
After standing there for a while, it ran over, and left again after eating and drinking. Only then did Xu Si feel at ease to go back to the kitchen.
With the movement of her fingers, a portion of cold noodles was cut, which was much more flexible than her previous attempt at embroidery.
Cut it with a snap and put it in different bowls. Once you’ve determined the taste, pour it into a bowl and start mixing. It won’t be so rushed.
Seeing that nothing was wrong for the time being, Xu Si went out with a glass of lemonade to see what was happening outside.
A customer called her, "Hey, Miss Xu, what are you drinking? I smell a nice fragrance."
Xu Si shook the cup gently, "What about this? This is the lemonade I made."
As she moved, the scent of lemon spread out, and people around her could also smell the faint scent.
“Do you sell this lemonade?”
Originally, she was only planning to make it for her family. Now that someone asked, she thought for a moment and replied, "I sell it, but it's not cheap, 3 cents a cup."
The price scared off some people, but the customer who just stopped her said directly, "Give me a cup. I've drunk a lot of teas, but I've never smelled anything like this."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Just when Xu Si was about to get it, a few other people decided to order a cup.
"I believe in Miss Xu's craftsmanship. The three cents are definitely worth it."
After the shop had been open for so long, everyone knew that Xu Sicai was the chef. Although they did not trust her at first because of her young age, they were conquered by the cold dishes she made.
"That's right. I have to order it quickly. I don't want it to be like a cold dish that will be gone if I'm late."
