The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Shopkeeper Miao looked at her and said, "I have indeed eaten roast duck before, but I wonder what is so different about Miss Song's roast duck?"

"Don't worry, Shopkeeper. I'll roast it tomorrow and send it to Feicui Xuan for Shopkeeper Miao to try. Then you can do what I did this morning and get some for tasting outside. However, roast duck takes a long time to make, so Shopkeeper, it would be best if you limit the supply."

"Miss Song, can't you sell me the roast duck recipe?" Shopkeeper Miao asked in a negotiating tone.

Song Yuntang thought about it and decided that it would be okay to just sell the recipe. He could keep the oven and do other things. Otherwise, he would have no free time.

But she still needs to test out the recipe for roast duck before she can sell it.

For her, she has only eaten it and has never baked it herself.

"It's fine to sell the recipe to Shopkeeper Miao. Then we can discuss it after he tastes it tomorrow."

"Okay." Shopkeeper Miao drank the sour plum soup in his cup and nodded. "In that case, I'll go back first. I still have to look after the Jade Pavilion."

Song Yuntang stood up and walked him downstairs.

"Treasurer Miao, take care."

It was only noon, and it was still early for the academy to finish classes at noon. There was not much that needed his help in the backyard. Fang Tianci, Tao and Chen were all ready.

He ran to Song Yuntang.

"Sister-in-law, is there anything I can do?"

Song Yuntang looked at the shop. By then, Tao Xia and Chen Xier would have to take care of the kitchen and serve the dishes. Fang Tianci might not be able to handle it all by running up and down the stairs alone, and someone would have to collect the money.

It seems that the shop needs two more people.

One is a waiter and the other washes dishes in the kitchen.

It is quite appropriate for Fang Tianci to be responsible for collecting the money.

After all, his indenture contract is in his own hands, so it is more reliable than finding someone outside.

"You can follow Brother Fang and be a waiter today. The shop is short-staffed, so I need to write a notice and post it at the door to recruit two more people."

Xu Wencheng suggested, "Sister-in-law, instead of hiring outsiders to do the work, why not consider our own family? My aunt and mother can do this kind of work."

Song Yuntang shook his head and said, "Washing dishes is not an easy job. In winter, if you soak your hands in water for too long, you'll get frostbite."

Xu Wencheng thought about it and said, "That's right."

Song Yuntang suddenly remembered to come alone.

"Do you think my cousin Liang Ping from my uncle's family can do the job of a waiter?"

Xu Wencheng's face was full of hurt. "Sister-in-law, I'm such a big living person standing in front of you, don't you even consider me?"

Song Yuntang smiled lightly, took out a piece of paper and began to write.

"Your eldest brother is going to the county town soon. You can't let the things in town hold you back. Otherwise, if you need help at home, you won't be able to find anyone."

Xu Wencheng is smart, efficient and willing to help.

He is very familiar with grinding medicinal herbs or helping to find medicine in the mountains.

If he wasn't at home, she couldn't ask her father-in-law for help. After all, he was her elder, and she couldn't bring herself to ask for that.

Xu Wencheng sighed, "Okay, cousin Liangping is actually not bad, he's quite smart."

"Okay, let's go back tonight and ask him if he wants to do it. I'll hire a dishwasher first."

Song Yuntang wrote a notice and posted it in a conspicuous place next to the door.

……

As soon as the school was over, several people who had tried the fried chicken in the morning came in at once.

"I want one serving of crispy chicken and two bowls of noodles."

"I want a bowl of sour plum soup and half a crispy chicken."

"Half a crispy chicken and a serving of rice dumplings with fermented rice wine."

"A pot of aged wine, a crispy chicken, a serving of fried peanuts, four braised chicken feet, two bowls of noodles, and we'd like a private room."

……

A crispy chicken costs 45 cents, and half a chicken costs 25 cents.

In a short while, seven or eight crispy chickens were sold.

At this moment, another group of people rushed in at the door, "Waiter, are there any private rooms left?"

"some."

The shop was very busy at the moment. Song Yuntang was helping out in the kitchen. Xu Wencheng hurried over and looked surprised when he saw the newcomer.

"Hey! Brother Zhuang, why are you here?"

Zhuang Ziang led a few friends into the shop.

"When your eldest brother and his wife got married, we made an appointment to meet here when the tavern reopened. Naturally, we have to keep our word." He looked the place up and down. "You know what, after all this preparation, it looks quite elegant. It's much more comfortable than before."

Turning to look at him again.

"Why is Wencheng here too? Could this tavern be owned by your family?"

Xu Wencheng said hurriedly, "This tavern was bought by my eldest sister-in-law before she married my eldest brother. It was under renovation before it opened."

Zhuang Ziang had a look of surprise on his face.

"I see."

When she left the Song family, she had nothing. What happened? How did she manage to open a tavern in such a short time?

Another person said, "No wonder Brother Xu kept us in suspense before. It turns out this is his wife's shop."

Seeing a few familiar faces, Song Yuntang also came to the front hall. After greeting them, he looked at Xu Wencheng and said, "Wencheng, take them upstairs to find your eldest brother. He's reading in the private room at the back."

"Hey."

Xu Wencheng responded, made a gesture to invite people upstairs, and hurriedly led a few people upstairs.

Song Yuntang continued to go to the backyard to help Tao and Chen.

Fang Tianci was busy going in and out carrying a tray, sweating profusely.

"Are we not late? Is the crispy chicken we had yesterday still available?" Another person entered the shop.

Fang Tianci took a look and saw that they were the seven people who came to the shop to try the food yesterday. He led them to their seats.

"Also, besides the crispy chicken, what else would you like to eat?"

After they sat down, they began to order. "Give us three crispy chickens, seven bowls of noodles, a pot of sake, and some braised dishes to try."

When they came to try the food yesterday, they saw the bowl of noodles.

It smelled delicious at the time.

Fang Tianci wrote down their orders, brought them a pot of tea, and then went to the backyard. Chen and Tao each reported an amount, and then brought a pot of wine to the front hall.

After a while, Xu Wencheng also came down from the stairs.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Zhuang and his friends ordered three crispy chickens, two spring rolls, two fried peanuts, and two bottles of aged wine."

Song Yuntang nodded.

"Okay, I got it. First, bring them a pot of sour plum soup and some braised food. Just say it's my treat."

"Hey, good."

Xu Wencheng responded quickly and went upstairs with a tray filled with a pot of cold sour plum soup, a few cups and a portion of braised food.

Seeing Xu Wencheng leave, Song Yuntang hurried to Chen's side.

"I'll blow it up with you."

Chen was not distressed by being busy, but was very happy instead.

"Miss Song, business is really good today."

Song Yuntang raised the corner of his lips, "It's like this at the beginning, but you have to hold on."

Chen seemed very confident about the business in the shop.

"What we make is delicious, so it will definitely continue to be good."
