The cold noodles sold out quickly. Gu Lin handed the last bowl to an aunt, "Have a good meal and come again."
The man can now say a few words for the occasion, and the aunt burst out laughing when she saw the last bowl of cold noodles.
"Oh, I come here often. My little grandson loves this one."
Gu Lin nodded, and after watching the aunt leave, he began to clean up the garbage thrown by the guests around him.
Zhao Liang was guarding the cold shrimps, and there were still a few bowls that had not been sold. He was not in a hurry. If he couldn't sell them, he would probably eat them himself. If he hadn't been afraid that he wouldn't be able to eat too much dinner when he went back, he would have finished the remaining bowls in one go.
Gu Lin snorted coldly, "Zhu Bajie, eat the ginseng fruit. It would be a pity to end up with a few bowls of cold shrimp in your stomach."
Zhao Liang was unhappy, "Brother, you can't bear to part with several bowls of cold shrimp now."
"You don't have a wife or children, so of course you don't understand."
After finishing the hygiene, Gu Lin took the bag and went to throw away the garbage. "Keep the stall safe while I go shopping."
The wolf tooth potatoes tasted good, and the man didn't want to disappoint Muning. He took the drawing and started looking for the mold. If possible, he should be able to make it tonight.
This thing was a bit hard to find. He looked at several canteens and grocery stores but couldn't find it. Finally, he found a similar mold in Brother Wang's store.
Brother Wang was very happy to see Gu Lin, "Hey, boss, I just said that only my store has it."
Gu Lin didn't expect this thing to be so difficult to buy, "Brother Wang will come over tonight and give you a new food as a gift. If you like it, tell everyone about it."
Brother Wang is really excited now. He doesn't care about money, but if he can eat for free, it shows that he has the ability.
"Oh, then I have to come. What exactly is the new food?"
Gu Lin gave the money, walked to the door with the mold knife, and replied from afar.
"Spike potatoes!"
"Potatoes..." Brother Wang muttered, and his wife joined in, "What's so delicious about these potatoes? We used to have them everywhere in the village. Anyway, I don't want to eat potatoes anymore in my life."
Brother Wang didn't expect that the new food would be potatoes. He frowned and said, "This boss can make mediocre cold noodles so delicious. Potatoes should be... right? We'll find out if we go and have a look tonight."
"I won't eat it anyway." Brother Wang's wife curled her lips and said.

When Gu Lin and Zhao Liang came back, Muning had almost prepared the cold noodles and shrimps.
"You can wait until I come back to do it." Gu Lin put the things down and moved close to Muning.
"Are you tired?"
Muning is not a squeamish person, but he will not refuse a man's care. "It's okay, it's all tasks within his ability."
If I don't do anything for such a long time in the afternoon, I feel like my head is going to fall asleep.
At this moment, Gu Lin also discovered that the house lacked a TV, something that could at least allow Muning to pass the time.
Men have always done more and said less. He won't talk about things that haven't been done yet, and he won't talk about it until he goes to the electrical appliance store one day.
"I bought the mold knife."
"Is it true?" Muning stood up happily, smiling happily, and his voice became much gentler, "Then let's bring twenty portions of wolf-toothed potatoes to try the water tonight."
Muning planned to fry it and take it there, otherwise it would be too troublesome to carry the pot and stove.
"OK."
Lunch was cooked by Gu Lin. After this period of training from Muning, his skills became very good.
Zhao Liang ate without raising his head, sweating on the top of his head, and when his mouth was on fire, he had to take a bite of cold shrimp to calm his anger.
This day was so enjoyable that he thought he was eating pig food.
While he was wiping his sweat, he accidentally saw Gu Lin removing the fish bones from the fish, and then he sent it to Muning's bowl after he thought it was fine.
Muning gave a big smile, and the man worked harder.
Tsk tsk tsk, Zhao Liang quickly lowered his head and took a few mouthfuls of rice, feeling envious in his heart.
In the past, when his parents were still alive, his family was the happiest among his brothers. Although he lived a simple life, his life would definitely be different if he had a mother without her.
Later, his parents went to the mountains to pick mushrooms to sell. They fell off the mountain and were sent to the hospital for treatment for several days. The family was depleted of money, but they still left, and grandma cried her eyes out.
If Gu Lin hadn't paid for him to organize the funeral for his parents, he might have been an unfilial son. He couldn't afford a coffin, so he buried his parents with just two mats.
His parents were gone, and the family still owed money to relatives and friends. His grandmother was so old and couldn't make money, so Zhao Liang had no choice but to drop out of school and follow Gu Lin to the factory to carry big bags and unload goods.
Gu Lin was very capable and fierce in fights. After he learned to drive, the factory still asked him to deliver goods. In the 1980s, there was a lot of chaos outside. There were many people on the street with knives, cutting off their hands. I picked it up to see if I could pick it up at the hospital.
When they got out of the car, they often encountered robbers centered in one village. Several times, goods were lost and people were injured.
Think about it, I made a lot of money and lost a lot of money at that time, hey.
Zhao Liang cautiously raised his head and glanced at Gu Lin and Muning. He had never imagined that his eldest brother would become like this after getting married.
The tenderness gave him goosebumps.
Setting up a stall now is tiring, and it's easy for people to look down on him, but he really feels that his life is better than before.
"Ryoko, is the spicy fish so spicy? Are you crying?"
Thinking about the past, Zhao Liang couldn't hold back his tears, which made him so embarrassed that he wiped them away with his hands.
"Sister-in-law, the chili that my eldest brother bought is so delicious. I haven't eaten something so spicy for a long time, and I can't stand it."
Muning's mouth was also swollen because of the spicy food, which made Gu Lin next to him have wild thoughts. He coughed twice and explained, "I bought it from an old farmer. I should have grown it for myself. I don't know how to sell it." "
"The old farmer saw that the elder brother bought more and gave him a few yuan less. The elder brother didn't agree and gave him all."
Zhao Liang's words were met with a knife in Gu Lin's eyes, but Muning tilted her head and glanced at the man, "It's pretty good. This pepper is worth the price."
She just felt that it tasted familiar, as if she had eaten this type of chili before.
It's not spicy, and your stomach won't hurt when you eat it. On the contrary, it tastes very fragrant. If you're not afraid of spicy food, it will taste delicious if you sprinkle some cumin and salt on it and chew it dry.
"I can't stop your mouth even if I eat." Gu Lin said gloomily.
Zhao Liang started to giggle. Anyway, his sister-in-law was here and his elder brother couldn't do anything to her.

Mu Tiande returned to Shanhe Village with the medicine. He was hunched over and his face was full of sorrow. Thinking of his bedridden wife, there were even more wrinkles on his face.
As he slowly returned to the village, he would inevitably meet a few people returning from the market.
"Uncle, are you back from the market?"
Mu Tiande smiled a little and replied, "Well, I'm back."
There are people in a village who have good relationships, and there are people who have bad relationships. For example, I met an old man of the same age who smoked a pipe and said, "Old Mu Tou, tell me, what's the use of raising children in your life?"
"Raising a son is promising, but if you marry a wife and forget about your parents, you won't come back for decades."
"Raising a granddaughter is just like being a meat bun and beating a dog. Once you leave, you won't look back. Now that I'm sick, I won't have the younger generation to serve me. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, old Mu Tou, I'm afraid you did something immoral in your last life."
These words were so mean that anyone else would be furious to hear them. Only Mu Tiande glanced at him and walked towards the door of his house without saying anything.
How could he have the energy to deal with this now? He might as well take care of the crops and earn some medicine money for the old woman.
Daliu Shuyuan——
After Muning had dinner, she just wanted to go back to the bedroom and lie down to sleep for a while, but suddenly a feeling of nausea came over her, and she vomited out her lunch meal into the trash can for the first time.
I didn't necessarily feel any better after vomiting, but my heart was pounding, making me even more uncomfortable.
