Otherworldly Days

"Dinner is ready, you two boys come over to eat quickly." Sun Bailian brought out a large plate of soup, smelling it made her want to move, seeing his two boys still playing with rabbits over there, she yelled.

The two brats from his family ran over, and when they wanted to yell for food, their daddy glanced at him, and he became more honest, sat down in a well-behaved position, stared at the food on the table. Badly drooling.

Stewed radish soup with bones, simmered on low heat for about two hours, boiled out the essence of the bones, and the radishes were transparent and exuded a strong fragrance.A large pot of pork offal stewed with spices is even more fragrant, and there is also a large portion of rice noodles, which is their staple food tonight.

At dusk and sunset, the two of them sat down around a small table.

"What's this?" Sun Bailian asked, looking at the food on the table, a large plate of long, white things.

"This is called rice noodles, and it's our staple food tonight. It's flour made from rice and mung beans, mixed with water in a certain ratio to make a slurry, and steamed in a pot." Cao Xiangnan explained, "We can go to You can put soup in it and eat it with sauce.”

Qi Wanfeng had heard his husband tell how to make it earlier, and used chopsticks to put river noodles into each bowl, made a bowl of soup noodles and a bowl of mix, and spooned a small spoonful of pig offal on top. , put it on the table, and said, "This bowl is for soup, and this bowl is for mixing."

Sun Bailian looked over and immediately understood.

"Em, I want to eat, I want to eat."

"Em, I want that bowl."

The two boys asked for a bowl each, and Qi Wanfeng moved the prepared pho to the two children of Sun Bailian's family, looked at Sun Bailian and asked, "Do you want soup or mixed it?"

"Whatever, it's fine." Sun Bailian glared at the two impolite boys in her family, and she had already swallowed her saliva several times, the smell was really delicious.

An An smelled the fragrance, and grabbed his mother's hand, "An An wants to eat" was written all over her face, and she was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.Qi Wanfeng made a bowl for his own child, and it was his and Fu Lang's in the end.

The big pot of bone soup gradually bottomed out, and there was nothing in the offal except a little soup.Fortunately, Cao Xiangnan thought that people in this era were hungry, so he made more. Fortunately, there was enough in the end, and everyone ate until their stomachs were round, and they sat there unwilling to move.

"Tell me, what do you want to say." The eyes of the man who was full were not as sharp as before. Cao Gang asked Cao Xiangnan and smiled confidently. He asked, "I don't know what you think How does the one I ate just now taste like?" "It's delicious, it's delicious." Sun Bailian answered first, it was really delicious, and I kind of felt that this was the best thing he had ever eaten in his life.

Cao Gang nodded calmly, not at all recognizable of the ferocity and hard work just now.The two boys next to it yelled, meaning it was delicious, but unfortunately their stomachs were about to burst and they couldn't eat any more.

"I came to you today to discuss something with you. I plan to go to Fenshui Town to open a food stall and sell what we ate just now." Then Cao Xiangnan took the materials they needed, the cost price, and what they could afford. The profits earned are displayed one by one.The price of pig offal is much cheaper than that of pork. After all, it is considered meat. The most important thing is that the taste he made smells delicious, and it tastes delicious. I am willing to spend money to buy a portion next time. .

Cao Xiangnan also told Sun Bailian and Cao Gang very clearly, "You also know the situation in our family. I can't do it with Wanfeng now, so I want to ask you to do it together. I can do these things, and I will be responsible for teaching you Do it, if we earn money, our two families will split the account fifty-fifty, what do you think? Are you interested in doing it together?"

According to the current price of rice, about three catties of rice noodles can be made from one catty of rice, and [-]% of them are soaked in mung beans.Mung beans are so cheap that no one wants them here, regardless of the quantity at this level, if the quantity is large, the cost will be lowered a lot, and the profit can be increased by [-]%.Then there are some other things, and you can earn more in total.

If two families do it together, the money that can be shared evenly should be quite considerable.

"Husband?" Sun Bailian's face was eager to move, and she really wanted to answer immediately.

Of course, he would be more willing if he could make money in another way. Their family relied on their husband to go hunting in the mountains to sell some money, and the family still had a few acres of thin land, although the family of four lived well.But every time Fulang went hunting on Mount Fulang, he was terrified. There were wild beasts in the mountains, who knows if they would encounter them one day, and there were hunters in the village who died in that mountain. Live by hunting.

"The way to make money is what you think. If you lose five or five cents, we can't take advantage of you. How about it, four or six cents, we make [-]% and you [-]%." Cao Gang sat there and listened silently. Said aloud.

"No, just five or five." Cao Xiangnan disagreed and insisted on his original opinion, "Without you, we would not be able to do anything, and there is no loss or loss. What's more, without you, Wanfeng and I would not be able to do anything today. Can't be here like it is now."

Regardless of whether it is out of gratitude or what, in short, they can have today, and even better days in the future, they cannot do without the help of Cao Gang and Sun Bailian.He believed in Qi Wanfeng's eyesight and his own judgment, so when he came up with the idea of ​​starting a catering business, he thought of looking for Cao Gang and Sun Bailian to do it together.

The eyes of the two met, the silent man looked away and looked at Sun Bailian who was beside him.Sun Bailian didn't say anything, but looked at his husband with hope in his eyes. No matter what the share was, he hoped that he would agree.

Cao Gang looked at Cao Xiangnan, said "Yes", and said, "Okay, it's done!"

Sun Bailian almost jumped up happily, the joy was hard to hide on her face.

A few children didn't understand what the adults were saying. After sitting in the seat for a while, their little buttocks ran down unsteadily. One ran away, then the second, and the third, they all ran away.

The four adults who were still sitting around the table continued to discuss business matters. The idea was from Cao Xiangnan, so naturally he already had an idea in his heart.Now the two families are working together, and they have to discuss what is the best way to do it. Cao Gang is a man who listens quietly most of the time, occasionally interjecting a sentence, and every time he puts forward opinions and ideas is very effective.

It was getting late, and the road outside was difficult to walk after dark, so Sun Bailian and the others had to take the children home.

"Happy cooperation." Standing up, Cao Xiangnan held out his hand to Cao Gang, and the two men held hands with smiles on each other's faces.

The guests who came were sent away, and the gate of the yard was closed.

The sunset in the sky has faded, leaving only the last light.Gradually, the last light disappeared on the horizon, and it was dark.
