It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, the street lights were dim, and occasionally vendors pushing carts passed by.
Yao Jingping thought about it all the way. Although the current policy is more relaxed than in previous years, business is really not easy to do.
The street in front of the hospital should be considered a relatively prosperous area in Lianhua County. It was just past eight o'clock in the evening, and there were not many pedestrians on the road. Even the small restaurants on both sides of the road had closed early.
It may be a bit difficult to make money in business.
Zhou Zhiyuan raised his head several times to look at the petite figure in front of him but hesitated to speak.
It was very cold, and it was past meal time, so it was not easy to find a place to eat.
The two walked quietly for a while in tandem, and the sound of crunching snow could be heard clearly.
Suddenly Yao Jingping's stomach gurgled uncontrollably.
I haven't eaten at this point, so I can't bear it any longer, and my stomach has already begun to protest.
"There's a restaurant next door, that's it."
Meng Hulu behind him suddenly made a sound, walked quickly in front of her, blocked her way, and pointed in the direction to the right.
This store is slightly larger than the store where I ate steamed buns last time. There is a plaque hanging on the store, Sun Family Restaurant.
She must be hungry. When she was walking just now, she couldn't help but raise her hands to cover her stomach.
It doesn’t matter what kind of buns or dumplings they are, let’s fill our stomachs first.
I walked in and sat down at an empty table. I saw the boss leaning on the counter chatting happily with a customer who was eating.
The guest was sitting at the dining table with his back to the door. He was wearing a large black cotton-padded jacket with red flowers, dark blue sleeves with green vertical stripes on his arms, and a red scarf on the table.
The two big braids hanging down to her waist are very conspicuous.
Judging from her figure, she should be a young girl.
No wonder the boss smiles like a dog.
"I will send another ten kilograms of tofu tomorrow. Today's Mapo tofu is in short supply."
"Boss Sun is really good at what he does. Which dish in the store can't be sold? This business belongs to Boss Sun."
The voice was delicate and soft, and it sounded familiar.
Yao Jingping felt that there were so many girls selling tofu in Lianhua County. Is the tofu business so easy to do?
She rubbed her hands, which were red from the cold, and sat down on an empty table, looking up and looking around.
The store is about twenty square meters, with more than a dozen tables placed in the lobby, and two long benches next to each table.
There were four or five tables of customers eating in the store, all dressed like city dwellers.
"Here, let's drink some tea to warm ourselves up. We have all kinds of stir-fried vegetables, rice, dumplings, steamed buns and noodles. By the way, do you want some mapo tofu? It's spicy and fragrant. Eat it in your stomach on a cold day, and it will keep you warm all night. "
The fat boss came over with a smile on his face, poured two cups of tea with quick hands and feet, and greeted them both warmly.
"Is there any rice?"
Listening to the boss's words, Yao Jingping asked hurriedly.
She suddenly missed the taste of rice very much.
In her previous life, she was busy at work, so she often made do with lunch boxes with her colleagues. When Zhou Zhiyuan found out, he thought she liked rice, so he often simmered rice with braised pork and other side dishes and sent it to the hospital.
The braised pork is stewed until it is soft and glutinous, fragrant and sweet, and melts in your mouth.
Stir the richly fragrant gravy into the rice, and it's a perfect addition to the meal.
She tilted her head and glanced at Zhou Zhiyuan, then smiled.
"Yes, yes, yes..."
The boss looked at the pair of young men in front of him with a smile, and happily put the menu in his hand on the table.
"What to order with it? We have both meat and vegetables..."
"Two portions of rice, two steamed buns, home-cooked cabbage, braised pork, Zhou Zhiyuan, don't you want a drink?"
Yao Jingping ordered the dishes skillfully and silently calculated the consumption in his mind.
A portion of rice costs 2 cents, two steamed buns cost 10 cents, a portion of cabbage costs 50 cents, and two pieces of braised pork cost only 2 yuan and 80 cents for a meal. It can also be mixed with meat and vegetables, which is really a good deal.
She had to eat well and be nutritious. Both she and Zhou Zhiyuan were a little thin.
Anyway, she must find a way to make money. She will just think of a way after she is full.
He doesn't like to eat rice, and his favorite food is soft and fluffy steamed buns.
"Xiaoyuan?"
The braided man who had been eating with his back to the gate suddenly turned around and shouted in surprise at Zhou Zhiyuan.
Yao Jingping looked at it and frowned.
Enemies really met on a narrow road, and they met the bitchy Bai Yulian again.
At this moment, he was looking at Zhou Zhiyuan with a look of surprise.
Perhaps because he was too excited, his face was a little blushing, but he looked very delicate.
Her eyes were so sweet that if she hadn't been worried about her, the real wife, standing next to him, she would have rushed over and got into Zhou Zhiyuan's arms!
"Xiaoyuan, brothers and sisters, it's really you, Boss Sun, this is my friend, the portion of the food should be more generous..."
Bai Yulian smiled sweetly at the boss, who looked like freshly baked steamed buns.
The boss was a middle-aged fat man in his early forties, with a face as plump as a steamed bun that had just been baked. He smiled and nodded at Bai Yulian, chatting with her.
"For Yulian's sake, I have to entertain the guests well, and I'm still counting on your tofu to make money..."
hehe……
Yao Jingping couldn't help but sneer twice, and she ate it all over the world with one move. She really relied on tofu to conquer the world. She might even have won the big steamed buns.
"I just came here. I ordered some noodles to eat here. How about we eat together..."
Bai Yulian stood up with a big bowl and was about to move it to their table.
"Need not……"
Before Yao Jingping could speak, Zhou Zhiyuan suddenly refused in a harsh voice.
He didn't even raise his head.
Not only was she not at all happy to see Bai Yulian, she even rejected her thousands of miles away.
"That's right, that's right, I can eat it quickly with just one serving of noodles."
This is a bit embarrassing, it's slapped directly in the face, let's see how she continues to kneel and lick.
"Xiao Yuan, I asked the boss to add mapo tofu, which is the signature dish of this store."
Yao Jingping grinned crookedly and waved to her to come over.
Bai Yulian looked flattered, and came over with noodles with a shy smile and a sweet smile. She didn't know if she was too excited, and the chopsticks in her hand slipped to the ground.
"I'm going to get a pair of chopsticks and I'll be back in a minute..."
Bai Yulian smiled sarcastically and ran towards the kitchen.
"I'm not familiar with her."
Zhou Zhiyuan had a strong desire to survive. Without waiting for Yao Jingping to ask, he explained to Yao Jingping seriously.
"Pfft...I didn't say you were familiar with her."
She put her hands over her mouth and approached Zhou Zhiyuan, lowering her voice and speaking in a low voice.
"When I was in the village, I heard Wang Guihua mention that it seemed that Bai Yulian was not allowed to have an abortion. I had to see what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd."
Pregnancy out of wedlock is not a glorious thing at any time, let alone the backward and backward 1970s.
For Wang Guihua to disregard her daughter's reputation and take the risk of giving birth to a child, there must be an ulterior secret.
She couldn't think of any other reason besides money.
Naturally, there is absolutely no way to find out the reason for this matter, so we have to make insidious remarks about it.
Seeing Bai Yulian coming out of the back kitchen, throwing her arms with dark blue sleeves and walking quickly towards this side with a look of joy, Yao Jingping frowned, his face darkened, and he kept sighing with a sad look on his face.
"You said everything was fine, why did this happen? How old is Chang'e? She suddenly had a child, and then the child suddenly disappeared..."
While talking, Yao Jingping calmly observed Bai Yulian who walked up to him.
The smile quickly solidified on her face, and a trace of panic flashed across her face. She walked to the table and was about to sit down on the long bench in despair.
Bangdang...
The long bench beneath her suddenly moved, and she suddenly became empty. She fell heavily to the ground, and her face changed color in pain.
"What happened? What happened? Why did such a big man fall?"
Yao Jingping stood up and stared at Bai Yulian, who was lying on the ground with her eyes closed and moaning softly, with a look of shock on her face and asked.
Zhou Zhiyuan raised his eyes and glanced at his little wife thoughtfully.
