Chapter 46: Meat Buns

"Mom is right. Since we want to open a shop, we can't just sell the same few things as before. Although Roujiamo and braised eggs are good, you will get tired of eating them every day. This ice powder and pancake fruit are just the best.

It’s different.”

Su Xiaomu handed the bowl of ice powder in front of Mrs. Li as if she were offering a treasure: "This soup is so ice-cold and refreshing to eat. I also poured brown sugar ginger on it. It's sweet and ice-cold. I don't think anyone can."

Deny its wonderful taste."

Hand-kneaded ice powder, if it were placed in modern times, it would be a great killer in the cool summer!

Mrs. Li took it and took a sip. Sure enough, after taking such a sip of ice powder, the heat of the whole day disappeared.

After drinking the ice powder, she took another bite of the pancake fruit. After biting into the yellow noodles inside, she curiously asked Su Xiaomu: "What is this long yellow thing in here?"

It tastes like it's been kneaded into flour and deep-fried. Not to mention, it's quite delicious.

"It's called fried dough sticks."

Su Xiaomu raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that there wasn't even the most basic breakfast like fried dough sticks here.

But it makes sense if you think about it carefully.

After all, fried dough sticks consume oil, and some people here can't even see a trace of meat all year round, let alone eating this kind of waste oil.

After eating, Su Xiaomu was not in a hurry to pack things.

She looked at Mr. Chen who was sitting under the tree, picking up the soles of her shoes, and with a smile on her face, she leaned over to talk to her.

"I didn't expect that my second sister-in-law is so good at craftsmanship and can embroider and tie shoe soles. My second brother is really lucky."

Su Xiaomu conveniently picked up a packed shoe sole that Chen put in the basket.

She did not hesitate to praise Chen's craftsmanship: "Such exquisite skills are everywhere in the village. If the second sister-in-law is ranked second, I am afraid no one will dare to say that she is the first."

"No wonder Xiaomu, you are always able to please your mother. You are so good at talking at such a young age. Who wouldn't like it after seeing it?"

Mrs. Chen was originally in a bad mood, but now she looked at the smile on Su Xiaomu's face and couldn't say a single unpleasant word.

She sneered coldly.

"Come on, let's not talk secretly. If you come to me like this, you might want me to do something."

She would go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, and she knew something about this sister-in-law.

"I just have a business that I want to trouble my second sister-in-law.

I’m not going to make ice powder here, but the most important ice powder seeds have to be found by someone to help collect them, and the eggs are also an important input."

Su Xiaomu knew that Mrs. Chen loved money, so she did not play charades with her: "Although we are a family, we must settle the accounts clearly. Two kilograms of ice powder seeds cost two cents. As for eggs..."

"I won't ask you for extra money for eggs. After all, they are food for the whole family. If you divide them so clearly, I'm afraid my mother will blame you. But if you want more eggs, I have to go to the village chief's wife to collect them..."

Seeing that she spoke so clearly, Mrs. Chen was also keen to settle accounts with her: "One penny and one egg, if you think it's okay, then I will take care of these two things from now on."

"Okay, then these two things will trouble Second Sister-in-law."

Su Xiaomu knew that the market price of eggs was three cents per egg.

But it doesn’t matter anymore.

Money needs to be earned by the whole family together, so Chen is willing to pay for the extra cost if she wants.

At night, while the whole family was asleep, Su Xiaomu quietly got up and put the chili sauce she was going to sell tomorrow into a basket.

She counted them carefully and checked them one by one to make sure there were no quality problems before she felt relieved.

After selling this batch of chili sauce, she would have more money.

The next day, Su Xiaomu and Mr. Yin went into the city after breakfast. This time, they even called several children at home to go with them.

The shop and yard needed to be cleaned, and it would be easier for her and Mrs. Yin to have a few more people.

They worked in the shop until noon.

There were too many things, and Su Xiaomu didn't have room to make lunch. She thought that it would be difficult to bring the children out, but it would be too miserable to just treat them to a meal, so she thought of taking them to eat something delicious.

"Sister-in-law, stop being busy now, let's go buy some meat buns to eat."

Su Xiaomu took the tablecloth from Yin's hand, and she winked mischievously.

"The children finally made it to the city, so we can't ask them to eat glutinous rice bran with us."

After she finished speaking, she specifically turned her body to the side, revealing the longing eyes of several children.

"But...but we don't have much money with us."

Mrs. Yin felt a little embarrassed and touched her pocket. She thought she was just cleaning today, so she didn't carry the money bag on her back at all.

but……

The eyes of the two daughters were too eager to eat meat.

Especially Ruotong, she has always been a sensible girl, but this was the first time she looked at herself with such eyes.

"It doesn't matter, I have money with me."

Su Xiaomu wants to eat meat buns.

Mrs. Yin thought about it, a few meat buns wouldn't cost much.

After discussing it, Su Xiaomu locked the shop and took a few children to the market to eat meat buns.

Two big meat buns per person.

She was greedy and bought a meat pie in addition to the meat buns.

Just as she was happily eating meatloaf and taking her children to a pastry shop, she saw a face that she had never wanted to see recently.

"Third uncle!"

Gu Ruochen was the first to see Gu Jingcheng, and he was so excited that he immediately wanted to rush forward and hug Gu Jingcheng's legs.

Embarrassing, embarrassing...

Why did you meet him here?

At this moment, Gu Jingcheng looked at Su Xiaomu and was stunned for a while.

When he went out today, he didn't see her and her sister-in-law setting up a stall, thinking that she really listened to his words and stopped coming to the city to do business.

Gu Jingcheng's heart was still a little warm at that time.

After all, it is inconvenient for the two of them to do business in the city as they are women.

But now I met her again at the market, and she went into the city with several of her children.

Gu Jingcheng's eyes darkened, just when he was about to ask.

"Third uncle, third uncle, you haven't been home for a long time. Don't you miss Ruochen at all?"

Gu Ruochen and Guo Ruochuan kept chatting around Gu Jingcheng's little mouth.

Su Xiaomu just took advantage of this gap to add another sentence: "I have nothing to do at home today. My sister-in-law and I discussed taking a few children to go to the city for a stroll. Ruotong and Ruonan have grown up, but they haven't even been to the city once.

Have been in."

"It's okay to go to the city and take a look. If you want to buy something, buy it. The opportunity is rare, so don't wrong yourself."

When Gu Jingcheng heard this, he glanced at his two nieces and saw that they looked at him with a little fear.

He didn't force it, but he still took out some money from his money bag and handed it to Su Xiaomu.

"I didn't know you were coming, but you don't have much money with you. Just take it and buy them whatever they want to eat."

Gu Jingcheng put the money into Su Xiaomu's hand. His usually frowning eyebrows relaxed a little abnormally when he saw the children.
