Chapter 239： soup dumplings

Chapter 239

In front is a long chair.

The bench was used as a table, with a row of small stools in front of it.

If guests eat duck blood vermicelli and soup dumplings, they can sit in front of the benches and eat them.

This takes up no space.

"The shopkeeper, come with a big bowl of duck blood fans."

"By the way, add a cage of soup dumplings."

Feng Sisi smiled and said, "It'll be fine right away."

Then Liu Chengwen put the vermicelli and duck blood into the bowl, Feng Sisi put the condiments and brought them to the guests.

Mother Liu also handed the steamed soup dumpling to Feng Sisi, who gave it to the guests.

"The shopkeeper, your soup dumplings are really delicious, with sweetness in them, I don't know how to make them."

Mother Liu said with a smile: "The guest officer thinks it's delicious, but the method is a bit complicated. This is taught by my daughter-in-law's sister-in-law."

"Then your daughter is married to a good family."

Mother Liu said with a smile, "No, there is such a craftsmanship that is hidden, how can it be taught to us, so I will let my daughter go back to live a good life."

"Your soup dumpling is really delicious, but it's a bit expensive. Can you make it cheaper?"

Duck blood fans cost five cents per bowl, but soup dumplings cost fifteen cents per cage, which is a bit expensive for ordinary people.

So many people come to eat, all for duck blood fans.

Occasionally order a soup dumpling to try it out.

Liu's mother explained: "It's really cheap. There are eight soup dumplings in a cage, made of white noodles, and there is a lot of meat in them. These are expensive. We really don't want to lie, they are all honest prices."

The guests listened to Liu Mu and felt that it was indeed not expensive.

After all, pork now costs twenty or thirty cents a pound.

There are also white noodles, which are not cheap.

"The shopkeeper, give me a soup dumpling too."

"Wait a minute, guest, I'll be ready soon."

Feng Sisi placed the soup dumplings for the guests. When she got up, she saw Su Binglan not far away.

Feng Sisi thought it was a hallucination.

"Sister Su?"

Su Binglan came over and said, "Sister Feng."

Liu Mu and Liu Chengwen both saw Su Binglan.

Mother Liu didn't even bother to steam the soup dumplings, so she hurried over to grab Su Binglan's hand and said, "We're so busy, we haven't even seen Lanlan come."

"It's cold, and your hands are a little cold. You haven't eaten yet. I'll serve you duck blood vermicelli and soup dumplings, and eat here."

Su Binglan hurriedly stopped Mother Liu and said, "Aunt Liu, don't be too busy, I came here after lunch."

"I'm just here to see, is business all right?"

Mother Liu smiled happily and said, "It's very good."

"Thanks to you."

"I just wanted Yinyin to help me ask, what staple food goes well with duck blood fans, and whether they can eat dumplings, but I didn't expect you to teach Yinyin how to make soup dumplings and ask her to come back and teach us, auntie me. I don't even know how to thank you."

Mother Liu sincerely thanked Su Binglan.

Actually, from the beginning, Mother Liu brought Liu Chengwen and the others to town to sell duck blood fans.

But the amount of duck blood fans is limited, and no matter how many guests eat, they will be hungry in the afternoon.

It is still necessary to have some staple food to padded the stomach.

So she asked Yinyin to ask.

I didn’t expect to learn how to make soup dumplings.

Su Binglan waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, duck blood fans are delicious when eaten together with soup dumplings."

"By the way, what about Uncle Liu?"

Liu Mu explained: "There is still work in the fields, and all the work in the fields will be abandoned. The rice is about to be harvested, so he is busy working in the fields at home, and I will come to the town to help."

"In other words, if you come occasionally, Chengwen and Sisi can keep busy."

Su Binglan looked at the things on display and asked, "Do you bring these things back and forth every day?"

Mother Liu said: "There is a small cart, it is convenient to push these things."

Su Binglan said: "Otherwise, Aunt Liu, you can put these things in the backyard of my shop, and come and pick them up when the stall is set up, so that you can save the transportation back and forth."

Liu Mu hurriedly said: "No way, we can't be tired, the peasants are not so squeamish, they are already very troublesome for you, how can I trouble you again."

Su Binglan also knew that Mother Liu didn't want to cause further trouble.

After all, he is not from the Su family.

Just like the third uncle, you can put the stalls at the back of the store.

Mother Liu still felt inappropriate.

Su Binglan thought for a while and said, "Aunt Liu, you can save some money and rent a shop in the west."

"The shop I rented costs one or two silver a month, but the price of the shop over there is starting to rise now. It's better to rent it early."

It was mainly barbecue and lamb offal soup that brought fire to the shops in the west. There was a lot of traffic there, and people were renting shops there one after another.

Mother Liu nodded and said, "Auntie, I understand, save more money and make more money. If it's convenient, you can set up a shop."

Liu Mu also thought about it, the weather is cold in winter, and there are probably fewer guests.

The weather is cold, and no one wants to eat in the cold wind.

It's still warmer in the store.

So you still have to make more money while the weather is not so cold.

Mother Liu calculated it in her heart. After the rice is collected, the child's father will be able to relax too, and he can come to the town to help together at that time.

Make more duck blood vermicelli and soup dumplings, and you can also sell more money.

She plans to rent a cheap shop.

Su Binglan's shop is big, and the rent is one tael per month.

If she rents a small one, maybe two and a half silver a month, she can make money selling duck blood vermicelli and soup dumplings.

Don't worry too much.

But if you rent a shop, you have to pay half a year's rent all at once.

And the family can't use all the money to pay the rent, and they have to spare some.

I have some good emergency spares, so I don’t panic.

Mother Liu thought for a while and said, "The weather is cold, so I really need to rent a shop in winter."

Su Binglan nodded and said, "If Aunt Liu needs help, let me know."

Mother Liu said with a smile, "Auntie is here now to thank you."

Mother Liu sighed in her heart that the Su family was really a good family.

If it was someone else, who could help so selflessly.

Su Binglan gave a few greetings and went shopping.

Mother Liu said to Liu Chengwen: "Your sister is at Su's house, we can rest assured."

Liu Chengwen said: "I also think my sister's sister-in-law is really nice."

"Yeah, she really helped us, but then again, if it weren't for your sister, why would anyone help us, right?" Mother Liu actually understood everything in her heart.

Feng Sisi said: "Mother is right. Sister Su treats our Liu family as a family for Yinyin's sake."

Mother Liu said, "That's it. In the future, you should walk with your sister more during the festivals, and go to Su's house more often."

Feng Sisi nodded seriously and said, "Mother, Chengwen and I both know, so don't worry."

…

Su Binglan then bought some meat and flour at the stall, and then bought some other things, and was ready to go home.

Just when Su Binglan was about to go back, Su Wenxiu ran over, "Sister, I finally found you."

Su Wenxiu ran in a hurry and was out of breath.
