Chapter 20 Braised Food Stall
That morning,
Suddenly, a braised food stall appeared in Yunlai Town, right next to Chen the butcher who sold meat.
Chen stood there nervously, watching the people coming and going on the street. She suddenly regretted that she had just volunteered to her sister-in-law to send a batch over to sell first.
She turned and looked down at her daughter:
"Girl, can I do this?"
Zhou Lingling nodded affirmatively!
"Mom, you can definitely do it."
Her mother is a woman of great foresight and courage!
It’s just selling braised food, no big deal!
Butcher Chen, who was sitting behind the butcher stall, raised his eyelids and glanced at his daughter: "When you were little, you were so brave when you stood there and scolded me. But now you're scared?"
Zhou Lingling's face was filled with shock: "Mom, you also scolded my grandfather?"
Oh my god, she got to know her mother again?
Chen: “…” The memory of death suddenly attacked me.
Who hasn’t been young and reckless once?
At that time, there was a widow named Bai who went to the meat stall every day to pester her father, and made her mother cry several times.
Chen couldn't stand it any longer, so one day when the widow came again, she stood there with her hands on her hips, cursing her father as a "heartless man" and a "ungrateful wolf"...
The price... was that her father chased her and beat her all over the street.
She used to be a tough kid, and had endured just as many beatings as her brother. But these years of living under Old Madam Zhou's thumb, enduring day after day, had made her a lot more timid...
Thinking of this, Chen's courage suddenly came back!
She put her hands on her hips and glanced at her father. He was really talking about something that was irrelevant to the topic!
Looking at the passing crowd again, Chen coughed twice and started shouting.
"Freshly baked braised food, made with an exclusive secret recipe, I guarantee you'll want more. Don't miss it if you pass by..."
Butcher Chen glanced at her, then looked away, hiding the emotions in his eyes.
Zhou Lingling's eyes flickered between her grandfather and her mother, thinking that she would have to ask her mother why she cursed her grandfather in the street...
But now, of course, the most important thing is to open the stall!
Zhou Lingling turned around and smiled brightly at the person hesitating in front of the stall:
"Sir, you can try our braised food. If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay!"
It was almost noon, and the aroma of their braised food was overpowering. Chen's shout attracted a lot of people to watch.
"Wow! It's really not delicious and you don't have to pay?"
The middle-aged man with a big belly who was closest asked.
Zhou Lingling nodded affirmatively, picked up a plate that had been prepared long ago, on which were various braised dishes that had been cut, with a handful of small bamboo skewers placed in one corner, and walked towards the crowd.
"Come on, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, have a try. If it tastes good, you can buy it. If it doesn't taste good, we won't suffer any loss!"
Seeing that she was smart, cute, and spoke lively, everyone present laughed.
"We won't suffer any loss, but will you, little boss, suffer any loss?"
Zhou Lingling hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "I don't really want to suffer a loss...so each uncle, aunt, brother, and sister only has one chance to try it!"
Her troubled little expression made everyone laugh.
Zhou Lingling: It doesn’t matter, as long as you are happy!
He walked around with the plates, letting everyone in front of the stall taste their braised food, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Chen wiped the sweat off her face with a look of heartache, secretly cursing herself for being so stupid.
"Daughter, why don't you go and call your second brother over!"
It’s such a waste for my son to stay at home and make fire with my little nephew. It’s so hot outside, how can I let my daughter go out and suffer!
It was a hot day and Zhou Yun, who was adding firewood to the fire at home with his cousin, was sweating profusely when he sneezed violently.
"Huh? This smell..."
"It's delicious. I want another piece."
"This tastes amazing, Boss, how much are these pig ears?"
The pot-bellied middle-aged man asked, smacking his lips as if he was savoring the taste.
Chen followed her daughter's instructions and replied, "Pork heads and pig ears are sixteen cents a pound, and everything else is ten cents a pound."
"Sixteen coins? Fatty meat is only ten coins a pound! Why is it so expensive?"
Zhou Lingling explained at the right moment: "Uncle, I can tell you're a connoisseur!"
"You've tasted it, too. Our stewed food is definitely unique. We use nearly a hundred kinds of Chinese medicinal herbs, and the bone broth is simmered for a whole day and night. The cost of the marinade, firewood, and other things all cost money. I'm still selling this delicious stew to you at a low price. Can you rest assured?"
Middle-aged man: “…” It seems that it really can’t be done!
"Okay, then give me half a pound of pig's head and half a pound of pig's ears!"
Zhou Lingling smiled and quickly praised him: "Okay, uncle, do you want me to cut it for you?"
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows: "Can you cut it well?"
Zhou Lingling: "Of course not! I can even make you a cold dish!"
"Okay! Then cut it up and mix it in for me."
The middle-aged man was in high spirits, thinking that he had come across a novel braised food stall today.
Zhou Lingling gave the weighed pig ears and pig head meat to her mother, then turned around to greet several other customers who wanted to buy things.
Chen felt that she had finally found a place to use her talents, but her place was taken away by Chen the Butcher.
"Go help Lingling."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen the butcher picked up the kitchen knife on the chopping board and started cutting.
All these years of slaughtering pigs were not in vain. The slices cut by Butcher Chen were very thin. Zhou Lingling silently gave a thumbs up to her grandfather in her heart.
"Uncle, you are our first customer today. I will charge you half price. Please give me eleven cents!"
"Auntie, since you're the second person, I'll give you a 40% discount. I'll charge you six cents for half a pound of large intestine. Would you like me to cut it for you?"
"..."
Soon,
The pot of braised food on the stall was sold out.
Chen told the sweaty Zhou Lingling to go back quickly: "Tell your aunt to bring the things over, and then you don't have to come. Mother knows how to do it!"
You have to learn even if you don’t know how!
As a mother, she has already fed the food to her mouth. If she still can't eat it, she might as well find a piece of tofu and kill herself!
Before the sun sets, the food on the braised food stall is sold out.
Both Mrs. Chen and Aunt Chen held their waists when they returned home. The pots and pans on the stall were brought back by brothers Zhou Yun and Chen Jiakang.
Butcher Chen also came back leisurely with his hands behind his back, and Uncle Chen followed behind him carrying a box of knives.
Thanks to this braised food stall today, the father and son’s meat were sold out early.
When Zhou Lingling saw that everyone had returned, she quickly put down the seeds her grandmother had just found for her and ran over.
"Mom, aunt, you're back!"
"Hurry up and sit down. I'll get you some water..."
She moved two bamboo chairs to the yard, then ran to the kitchen and quickly brought out two bowls of water and handed them to the two of them.
Then he looked at them eagerly——
An old and breathy voice suddenly sighed.
"Alas, we old guys are no longer respected now, and there will be no hope for us when we get old..."
Another voice echoed: "That's right! Now I can't even drink water, ah..."
Zhou Lingling: “…” Drama Grandpa! Drama Uncle!
Despite her inner complaints, Zhou Lingling still put on a smile:
"How could I forget you two? I'll go get some water for Grandpa and Uncle!"
