Chapter 48 Making things difficult
Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou went to the grain shop near the market.
On the way, Su Ergou excitedly asked his sister, “Sister, how many days are we going to sell?”
“Three days at most.” Su Xiaoxiao.
The New Year is approaching, there are fewer and fewer guests in the town, and their business seems to be unaffected. There are many repeat customers, and everyone is thinking about making New Year’s goods. Once the small year is over, almost no one comes out to buy.
“It’s only three days.” Su Ergou was disappointed.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him funny: “Do you like selling cakes so much?”
“Yes.” Su Ergou nodded.
Su Xiaoxiao said: “It’s cold and freezing, and people are pointing fingers at you. Don’t you feel tired and annoyed? In summer, it’s hot and sunny, and you may have heatstroke. Don’t you think it’s better to lie at home?”
Su Ergou shook his head like a rattle: “But lying at home, you will be hungry.”
Su Xiaoxin sighed with emotion, raised his hand and touched the back of his head: “I won’t make you hungry again in the future.”
With the launch of new products, they need more and more kinds of ingredients. Yesterday, she ordered 20 catties of glutinous rice flour, 30 catties of white sugar, 50 catties of flour and 100 duck eggs in the shop.
The salted egg yolk used in the egg yolk cake was pickled by herself. She didn’t know if there were any salted duck eggs in Beijing, but there were none in the town anyway.
As soon as the egg yolk crisp came out, it immediately became the new favorite of the big guys.
However, due to the high cost of egg yolk crisps, the price was also sold for twenty-five cents a piece, and the student’s reservation was twenty-three cents.
The price is still cheaper than Kam Kee’s dim sum, so it sells very well.
The two came to the grain store and unexpectedly met their aunt Huang.
Since the last time she touched a sullen nose at Xiao Su’s house, the Huang family has hated Su Fatya. She has been thinking about how to get back to the scene, but by chance, this dead fat man was delivered to the door!
“Yo, who am I, isn’t this the unfamiliar little white-eyed wolf?”
Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help laughing when she heard Huang’s strange words.
“What are you laughing at?” Huang said with a sullen face.
Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile: “I laugh at my aunt if she can’t speak, so don’t say it, so as not to lose the face of the scholar’s son.”
Huang threw his head in anger: “You—”
Su Xiaoxiao said rudely: “What am I? My aunt didn’t give birth to me and didn’t raise me, why did I become an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf? I really want to say a white-eyed wolf, sucking the blood, sweat and silver of the deceased aunt, and treating me harshly. A pair of children of the deceased sister-in-law… don’t you look more like your aunt?”
Huang has already learned this girl’s eloquence, but if you learn it again, it is still called a popular lung tube!
She pointed at Su Xiaoxiao’s nose: “You, you, you…don’t be too arrogant! Your cousin is going to study in Fucheng soon! When he is admitted to Master Juren, you will look good!”
You don’t need to kneel to the county magistrate if you are admitted to a scholar, and it will only be more beautiful if you are admitted to the juren master!
Thinking of this, Huang’s mood finally calmed down.
She straightened her back and said, “Damn girl, just wait and see! The first thing your cousin mentioned was to kick you out of town!”
Drive out of town, what a big breath!
However, Master Juren is indeed very rare in this dynasty, especially in such a remote town, it is rare to exist, and it is not an exaggeration to say that a carp is a dragon.
Chen Haoyuan won’t really be able to do it, right?
Su Xiaoxiao’s contemplative look fell into Huang’s eyes, which undoubtedly became a guilty conscience and fear.
The Huang family is very proud!
Let you offend me, now you know how powerful I am!
“Girl! It’s too late to regret it now! Even if you kneel and beg me, I can’t promise you and Erlang’s marriage!”
Who is going to be your daughter-in-law!
Is Wei Ting not handsome? Or is Wei Ting’s waist bad?
However, there is one thing the Huang family said rightly. After Chen Haoyuan was promoted, the life of Xiao Su’s family will not be easy.
Huang said to the shop owner, “You, don’t do her business. In the future, my son will become a master of Juren, and he will come to your house to buy it!”
Having said that, she walked away triumphantly.
Su Ergou snorted: “I haven’t passed the exam yet, but I’ll be called first. Boss, here it is!”
He handed the purse to the boss.
The boss didn’t answer.
“What’s wrong?” Su Ergou asked.
The boss’s eyes flashed, and he hesitated: “You, you take the money back, there is no flour, it’s sold out.”
“Why not?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
The boss said: “Sold out this morning!”
Su Xiaoxiao said: “I ordered it yesterday, you should sell it to me first.”
“I…” The boss was panicked by Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes. He turned around to sort out the grain bags, “Anyway, you can buy it elsewhere, I just don’t have it here!”
Su Ergou said angrily: “Hey! Do business with integrity! You don’t want to sell the flour you said, what do you want us to make pancakes with? Don’t you really believe her words? Her son is just a scholar, with eight characters. Not a single stroke – who knows if you can hit it?”
The boss wondered: “I can’t help it either, girl, go buy it elsewhere!”
“you–”
“Forget it, Ergou, let’s go.”
Su Xiaoxiao took Su Ergou out of the shop.
Su Ergou complained: “Sister, why are you stopping me? He is a big man, how can he be fooled by a mother-in-law?”
“It’s not the Huang family.” Su Xiao’s novel.
For the change in Su Xiaoxiao’s title, Su Ergou adapted very quickly and felt extremely comfortable.
Su Ergou wondered: “It’s not her, what’s the matter? Why did the boss go back on his word and not sell it to us?”
Su Xiaoxiao had a guess in her heart, she thought about it, and said, “Let’s go, go to another store and ask.”
There used to be quite a few stalls selling flour in the market. They were all villagers. It was almost New Year’s Eve, and they didn’t leave the stalls until Su Xiaoxiao came to the shop to buy them.
Su Xiaoxiao remembered that there were two more nearby.
However, when they came to buy, they all said they were sold out.
“Isn’t that bag of white flour?” Su Ergou asked, pointing to a bag of flour in front of the counter.
The owner of this shop smirked and said, “That… it was ordered by someone else, and the money was given.”
“What about this?” Su Ergou found another bag of white noodles behind the rice vat, “What are you hiding for?”
The boss smiled stiffly: “I, I eat at home, it’s almost New Year’s Eve.”
The two came out of the third shop.
Su Ergou finally couldn’t bear it any longer: “Sister, what’s going on? In the past Chinese New Year, flour was not so difficult to buy.”
Yes, it is not a disaster year and a famine year, the price of food is stable, there should be no shortage of materials, not to mention the rice and wheat are not out of stock, and the sole flour is gone.
is really weird.
Su Ergou said: “I remember, there is also a rice noodle shop in the west end, but it’s a bit far. Sister, wait for me here, I’ll buy it!”
he said, he was about to leave.
Su Xiaoxiao shook his head: “No need, no one will sell it to us.”
Su Ergou was taken aback: “Why?”
Su Xiaoxiao looked ahead and said indifferently: “The business is so good that it’s in the way of some people.”
Good morning
