Chapter 21: Xiying Lou sells game
After dinner, Su Wangqin woke up the two children and let them have a bowl of porridge each before taking them to Su's house.
When Mrs. Su saw the two children, she raised her sparse eyebrows and scolded impatiently, I brought a bowl of braised pork from me yesterday and wanted me to take care of the children. I don't care, why should I look after the children for you, I'm very busy at home, so I don't have time.
Mother, I have never missed your filial piety, so you can help me watch this time. Su Wangqin lowered his tone.
After watching this time, there will be another time. I will show them all in the future. Do I still have to do my own life? Besides, such a big child in the village is all about the big ones and the young ones. Why are you two? A loser who eats my braised pork is expensive. Old Madam Su rambled and spat out.
Gu Chunzhu's brows twitched, and Mrs. Su couldn't get around the braised pork.
She stopped Su Wangqin, who was still talking, and said with a smile, Mother, show us, we'll come back and bring you a white-flavoured steamed bun. You also mentioned such an old child. You won't delay your work if you watch it for a while.
Humph! Madam Su let out a dissatisfied tone from the tip of her nose, and raised two rough knuckles, At least two white-faced steamed buns, you are two children.
Okay. Gu Chunzhu gritted his teeth and responded.
As long as you go to the county town to sell the game, how can you earn dozens of dollars more than selling it in the town? It’s not bad for these two white flour buns. The safety of the children is the most important thing.
Father, mother, you have to come back early. An An chased out and ran to the courtyard gate, with tears in his black eyes, Xiao Cheng stood on the side and wanted to pull her in.
Madam Su's scolding voice came from behind, Why are you crying, I'm not dead yet! Your parents are here to make money, not for anything.
Gu Chunzhu and Su Wangqin tacitly accelerated their pace.
When he got home, he put the prey in a broken basket. Originally, Su Wangqin wanted to keep a litter of rabbits to raise, but he couldn't sell it for a few dollars.
Gu Chunzhu thought that there were not many weeds in winter, and every household was rushing to cut hog grass to feed the pigs, so he put a few rabbits in together, and the shrimp she caught yesterday was also packed in another basket to prepare together. Sell it.
The two went to the town on foot first, and before the sun came out in the early morning, the fog was so cold that the snot came out.
When they arrived in the town, Su Wangqin led the way and found an ox cart that went to the county seat. Two pennies per person, Gu Chunzhu felt a lot of pain, thinking to himself, this rabbit is really a big loss if it sells dozens of pennies more than the town.
After the bullock cart bumped for two hours, it arrived at the county seat. When Gu Chunzhu got off the car, his legs were weak and he almost fell. Su Wangqin supported her and asked anxiously, Are you alright?
I'm not used to this bullock cart. She exhaled weakly, leaning on Su Wangqin's body as if she was falling apart. Where is the restaurant going?
There! Su Wangqin pointed in a direction.
Gu Chunzhu pointed his toes in that direction and was about to set off. Su Wangqin offered to help her carry the basket, but she was rejected, and it took him a whole stick of incense to reach the restaurant.
Several plaques with gilded characters Xiyinglou hang high at the entrance of the restaurant.
Su Wangqin actually wanted to go in with his head down, without the slightest timidity, Gu Chunzhu grabbed him, he looked at Gu Chunzhu blankly, Don't you want to sell game to this big restaurant?
If we go in like this, we'll be kicked out as troublemakers, she said nervously.
Looking down at the clothes of himself and Su Wangqin, and then looking at the clothes of the guests who came in and out of the restaurant, the difference between clouds and mud. Even if he came to sell something, delaying the business ahead of him would make people unhappy.
Then... Su Wangqin didn't understand.
Come with me. Gu Chunzhu grabbed his wrist and took him around a long time before he found the back door of Xiying Building. There was an aunt who was sitting and washing vegetables. She peeled off the leaves of the rotten vegetables with insect eyes. Throw it aside and work very seriously.
This eldest sister, do you accept game here? Gu Chunzhu raised a smiling face and said that she would not hit the smiling face when she reached out her hand. She approached and called out to the young man.
When the aunt raised her head, she pulled down the back basket behind Su Wangqin. She didn't expect it to be so heavy and almost touched her hand, but fortunately Su Wangqin stretched out his hand to hold it.
Gu Chunzhu grabbed the rabbit's ears and pulled it out of the broken basket.
Little sister-in-law, there are hunters who specialize in supply in our restaurant, so maybe they won't accept you. The aunt said apologetically, looked at Gu Chunzhu and Su Wangqin's outfits, and guessed that they might have come from the village.
Now that she said no, Su Wangqin was going to pull Gu Chunzhu away, but she didn't expect her to come in again and say, It's almost winter now, and the game animals sent by the hunters are also less. Besides, you guys from the big restaurant seem to be here. , I think you must still be out of stock, why don't you buy my rabbit and keep it, and you can supply it to the guests when there is no prey in the winter.
This... The aunt pondered that the hunter really did not come here this month, but her face was also troubled, I'm just a chores, and this is under the responsibility of Chef Zhang.
Seeing that the aunt was kind and easy to talk, Gu Chunzhu threw the hare back into the crate and approached the aunt's side, took two pennies from her arms and quietly stuffed it, Eldest sister, please help me spread the word.
Chef Zhang can't come out
Come on, I can't be the master. The aunt's hands are shaking, it must be the first time to do this.
Even if you don't accept me, thank you eldest sister, you can help me and say something, it won't delay your errand. Gu Chunzhu knew that the doubts in her heart were added to the fire.
It's not good for the aunt to go after she has received the money. It's a matter of a sentence.
Standing behind Gu Chunzhu, Su Wangqin saw the money she put in and the words she said. His eyes widened a bit, and he held his breath and worried that the chef would not come.
As a result, this chef really came out with his aunt.
Shy of the cook's typical big belly, he shouted in a broken gong-like voice, I generally don't accept retail investors. I just came to see the lively and plump rabbit you mentioned, Sister-in-law Gui.
Unexpectedly, this aunt also helped to say good things. Gu Chunzhu just gave it a try. After all, it has been a human society since ancient times, and this test really came true.
Chef Zhang, you are number one in our Ping'an County culinary arts, and no one dares to be number two. You can see at a glance that my rabbit is very fresh, and this golden pheasant has died not long ago. And this badger and river prawns, you can't hide the ingredients from you.
Gu Chunzhu took the game out and slapped the horse with one mouth.
