Nongmen Xiaofu's Reborn Wife
Chapter 103 Zhong Cuilan
"Daughter of a scholar named Zhong?" Mrs. Zou frowned, and said discontentedly, "Aren't you telling me to look for some girls from poor families? Why did you find the daughter of a scholar? They entered the mansion to sign and sell themselves. "Akta, a scholar has fame and fame, and she is considered a scholar, so that she can let her daughter enter the mansion to become a servant girl?" Or the servant girl who serves her master
. .
“Bu, don't worry, the girl is not Zhong Xiucai's own daughter, but the adopted daughter who was picked up on the road.” Mother Hong explained with a smile: “The Zhong Xiucai family came here to escape from hunger, and their family wealth is not as good as it used to be. Her family loved it, so in order not to embarrass Zhong Xiucai, the girl sold herself and came to our house to be a maid." In fact, Madam
Hong also kept a secret on some matters. .
Zhong Cuilan was ambiguous with second son Zhong Xiucai, second son-in-law the learned and forced Zhong Cuilan to be driven out with death. Zhong Cuilan had no choice but to sell himself as a slave.
After hearing this, Madam Zou felt relieved: "That's good. Remember, we should let them sell themselves willingly, and you cannot force them, so as not to cause us trouble. " Said Ying, the next day
, eight girls were brought to Zou's house, divided into study and main hall, to serve Zou Xiancheng.
And the Zhong Cuilan they were talking about was Ma Cuilan who was on his way to escape from the desert.
Ma Cuilan originally wanted to use the name Zhong Xiucai to marry into a good family. But when he came to Tianfu County, he realized that Zhong Xiucai was absolutely nothing. Although they had a reputation as scholars, they came from starvation, and they were still looked down upon by the locals. Those who can get married are farmers with better conditions. .
Ma Cuilan knew the hard work of farming, and he would never plan to eat on the ground even if he died in this life, so she heard that Madam Hong sold herself to be a maid after she found someone to enter the county magistrate's house.
She had heard that many aunts started out as servants, and her goal was to become an aunt.
When she becomes an aunt, she will become a family member of the officials, the host, the master, who can trample all the farmers who are digging in the fields, he said, and no one dared to look down on him from now on.
...
Qin Gu Luotian and his family had no idea that Ma Cuilan had changed his name to Zhong Cuilan, and he had even entered the Zou residence as a servant.
They were busy selling stalls to make money.
After Jiang Xianwei caught Lu Laosan, the stall knew they were becoming more famous, and his business was as good as on the day of the Lantern Festival.Chen was so busy that he and Yan were frying tofu and bean dregs cakes.
Seeing they were too busy, Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang went to Xuanhufang to borrow a clay stove and fried tofu in an iron skillet.
"Six tofu fried seasoning and ten golden bean cakes, take it." Gu Dagui wrapped the tofu five fries and bean dregs cake with yellow paper and handed it to the guests.
"Boss, these three tofu five fries and six golden bean cakes." Right after one customer was evicted, a new customer came to buy tofu and peanut cake.
“Hey, wait a minute, I'll make it for you soon.”
“Bos, this there are 30 white tofu catties and 60 packs of seasoning spices.” Three customers stood in front of their stall with baskets and said.
These three guests were village farmers who came to the city to go to the market, it was not easy for them to come to the city just once, so they bought a lot of items every time they bought.
When the third grandfather heard this, he said to them: "Know can be kept for at most five days. You have to finish it in five days, or it'll rot. "This is the fifth day of February. Lord
"Don't worry, old man, we bought it for the villagers. If we can spend it, it's still not enough. "Whether it's fried or boiled, as long as some seasoning is added to Gu tofu, it's tasty. Everyone loves to eat. And only their families sold them in the city, and if they arrived late, they still could not afford them, so every time someone from the village came to the city, they bought them for tens of catties.
After hearing this, the third grandfather smiled and asked Qin Sanlang to bring them to know.
Qin Sanlang brought them 30 catties of white tofu and 60 packs of seasoning herbs, collected 450 Wen, and gave them to the third grandfather.
Seeing that she had made a lot of money, Madam Chen was very happy, the act of frying tofu and bean dregs became faster, and she was full of energy.
After a while, another customer carrying a load came to the stall and shouted: "Boss, bring us twenty catties of white tofu and twenty packs of seasonings."
Qin Sanlang went to pick up the tofu for them again, and bought five fried herbs The customer knew it saw it and hurriedly said: "Sister, can you sell all the white tofu? If you sell white tofu, where can we go to buy tofu five fried condiments?" made of white tofu
If white tofu has been sold out, know five sauteed spices are no longer there.
“No, give me six more tofu five fries and ten golden bean cakes.” “
I will also add three tofu five fried condiments.”
“I will add six more golden bean cakes.
” said the guests who waited one after another, I was worried I would not be able to buy it if it was too late.
"Hey, I'm here, I'm here, I'm doing it for you." Madam Chen was so happy that she almost floated. His business was so good that he could wake up with a smile in his dream .
Gu Jinli and the others had been busy for an hour, and they sold all the tofu dumplings and beans before noon. The customers who did not buy it felt very sorry and complained to them: "My family, why don't you prepare more know? I haven't bought anything yet. "
Chen's face was full of smiles, and he chewed on the bean dregs cake and replied, "Don't worry, we'll prepare more tofu tomorrow, so you can all buy it."
A middle-aged man with a vegetable basket The woman looked at Chen with dissatisfaction: "You said the same thing last time, what happened? Didn't my family buy it today? No, you leave six spiced fried tofu for my family tomorrow, plus ten golden bean cakes, my kids love to eat peanut cake.”
Gold bean cakes are more in demand than tofu, and often there is still tofu, but gold bean cakes have been sold out.
Chen said: "OK, okay, brother-in-law Xu, don't worry, I will definitely keep it for you tomorrow." When
other customers who did not buy them heard this, they started making reservations one by one. 1. One gold bean cake, dozens of sauteed tofu five seasonings and hundreds of bean dregs cakes were ordered in no time.
After meeting the scheduled guests, they packed up their belongings and left them at Xuanhufang, then rushed to the grocery store, bought two catties of wine, two packs of caramel and some groceries, and then go to the grain store to buy five catties of wine.white rice and white noodles, and go to the meat stall to buy some meat catties, eggs, live chickens, and, and some cabbage and radishes, then rushed back to Dafeng Village.
They bought these items because Shang Xiucai sent a greeting card to their family, saying that he would take his wife and daughter to Gu's house for a visit tomorrow.
Shang Xiucai did so very formally, and they did not dare to ignore him, so they bought things and prepared to make noodles tomorrow to comfort Shang Xiucai's family well.
