Xianyu's leisurely life through books

Chapter 40 Are you hungry?
Pei Xiaoxiao briefly explained the matter, and finally said: "Just treat it as an extra meal, and you can eat it until the evening. On weekdays, the children can't eat enough if they want to eat."

As he said that, he wrapped twenty more in oiled paper and took them to his mother's house later.

Song's mother was worried: "What should I do? It won't be like this in the future, right?"

"I said a long time ago that a woman can only be stable if she manages at home. If you go out and do so much, it will be nothing in the end?" Xiao Han's eyes shone with wisdom.

Pei Xiaoxiao looked at her.

This guy's speech is always so unpleasant, and she takes the opportunity to prove her self-worth.

I still want to PUA her all the time, and want to pull her to become a housewife together.

She was about to reply, but Song Yu spoke before her.

"Second sister-in-law, being mean will not allow you and your family to eat meat and live a better life."

He also made another skewer of meatballs and handed them to Song Fei: "Come on, Feifei, eat more."

Xiao Han's complexion changed.

Could the irony of the brother-in-law handing the meatballs to her daughter be more obvious?
Pei Xiaoxiao glanced at Song Yu in surprise.

The male protagonist has a poisonous tongue, but generally he doesn't fire at his family.

Especially for my sister-in-law...

Xiao Han's face was displeased: "I'm right, right? The whole pot of meatballs has been brought back. If I come a few more times, all the hard-earned money before will be posted."

Although her words were not pleasant to listen to, they made some sense.

Song's mother also sighed: "Xiaoxiao, if this business can't continue, it's okay to come back home and farm."

After a pause, she continued: "You have paid more than 60 taels to me one after another. The last time you paid seven taels of silver for the wheelchair, there are more than 50 taels left, and you can buy four or five acres of land, which is barely enough to eat. .”

Song Qi echoed: "That's right, life is a bit tough, but it's definitely better than before."

Pei Xiaoxiao said: "Business will not fail, their meatballs are not as delicious as mine."

"Brothers and sisters, self-confidence is a good thing, but your blind self-confidence will lose money."

"Yes, although the taste is very important, but Liu Ji sells it cheaply, there are many things in the store, it is convenient to order, and the location is closer than yours. No matter how you look at it, you can't compete with others."

"And they are big stores, we are just rural farmers, how can we consume them?"

Pei Xiaoxiao shut up.

She said one sentence, and each of these people said one sentence, and they drowned her directly.

Too lazy to talk.

"Shut up! Don't keep talking to Xiaoxiao with depressing words." Song Yu said, "When she started this small business, you didn't think highly of her, which shows that your judgment is not very good."

Everyone: "..."

Regardless of them, Song Yu poked a meatball with a stick and handed it to Pei Xiaoxiao's mouth, and said softly, "Didn't eat at noon? Are you hungry? Open your mouth."

"Thank you, I'll do it myself." Pei Xiaoxiao glanced at the hero, with mixed emotions in her heart.

The next day, something happened on the way to Liuyun County. When we got there, the academy was already out of school.

Pei Xiaoxiao noticed that there were quite a few people around the stall of the sauce-flavored cake boss, who seemed to be asking for something.

The boss of Maoxiangbingbing kept shaking his head, and disappointment appeared on the faces of several scholars.

Suddenly, the boss of Maoxiangbingbing pointed in her direction, and the scholars turned their heads to look, with surprise expressions on their faces, and surrounded them one after another.

"Miss Pei, you are finally here!"

"Liu Ji's meatballs are not good, but yours are better."

"Yes, your meatballs are very delicious, I want to eat two skewers today!"

"I spent four pennies, and I'm not short of this penny. Let's eat from Mrs. Pei's."

"Sure enough, there is a reason why you are expensive."

"..."

While everyone was chattering, new people came around.

Pei Xiaoxiao sat on the bullock cart and said with a smile: "Make room, everyone, I'll set up the stall first, and it will be soon."

A dozen guests left, and new ones came.

Soon...

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid it won't be sold out today, so I only made [-] skewers. Please come early tomorrow... I'm sorry..."

"Ah! This is gone? I've been waiting for a long time, and I haven't eaten any of them!"

"We will all buy from your house in the future, Mrs. Pei should make more."

"Okay, please go early tomorrow."

The sauce cake boss at the side looked at Pei Xiaoxiao, and then at Liu Ji, who obviously lost many customers, and felt refreshed.

It didn't have much to do with him, but he was just happy.

Yesterday, Liu Ji looked down on country people, which made people disgusted.

He is also from the country.

What happened to the country ones?
Are people from the countryside unworthy of doing business and should be bullied?

Yesterday was so arrogant, this is only one day, at least half of the customers are lost!
The meatballs I made today are probably going to be smashed into my hands, right?

Haha!

Just as the soy sauce biscuit vendor expected, Liu Ji and his wife were about to burst into tears.

They beat gongs and drums yesterday, and business was good.

Some people have indeed reported that the taste of the meatballs is not as good as Pei's.

But they thought that there was not much difference, and they sold it cheaply, so they didn't reduce the amount too much.

Unexpectedly, out of the [-] strings made, only [-] strings were sold!
A string of meatballs costs a little more than two pennies.

140 strings, that's close to three hundred words!

In fact, the three hundred Wen is not unbearable.

The important thing is the message behind it: customers prefer Pei Ji Meatballs!
Mrs. Liu Ji stood outside her shop, staring at Pei Xiaoxiao at the end of the street, her silver teeth almost gnawed into pieces.

Yesterday Pei Xiaoxiao closed the stall early, she went up and laughed.

She closed the stall early today, but it seemed like she was slapping her face.

Heartbroken.

Damn it, I don't know what kind of secret recipe she used, why the guests who can hook it are flocking to it.

Pei Xiaoxiao tidied up the booth quickly, and instead of leaving immediately, she went to Liu Ji.

"Uncle Big Niu, wait, I'll go to Liu Ji."

"Hey, as long as the business comes back, why are you angry in the past?"

Pei Xiaoxiao said, "I'll be back soon."

A joke is not someone who can be wronged.

Liu Ji deliberately came to disgust her, so of course she wanted to reciprocate.

"What are you doing here? Are you proud?" Mrs. Liu Ji was constipated.

"Of course I'm proud." Pei Xiaoxiao frowned, and threw back what she said yesterday, "Oh, by the way, I came here specially to take care of you because your business is not doing well today."

Mrs. Liu Ji's face was ashen.

"Well, your meatballs don't taste as good as mine, so I won't buy them." Pei Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "I heard that braised duck jaws are a signature, so let's have one."

Liu Ji's proprietress was annoyed: "Not for sale!"

Pei Xiaoxiao was surprised: "Ah, it turns out that your store still picks customers. Let me tell you, it's not okay to do business like this. You are also an old store for many years. Don't you understand the truth?"

"Go away, you are not welcome here."

"Why didn't you sell it to me?" Pei Xiaoxiao looked puzzled, then suddenly realized, "Oh, I see, you said yesterday that we country people are not worthy of doing business, so if you don't sell it to me, you must dislike my status as a country person Slightly."

As soon as the words came out, the customers in the store looked up one after another, and many of them looked unhappy.

Many of them are not from the city.

There are also grades in the academy, and country people are naturally looked down upon by city people.

Hearing their conversation now, and learning about Liu Ji's pissing nature, it's no wonder I feel happy!
If you are angry, put down your chopsticks immediately.

"Come to Liu Ji for dinner in the future, I'm a dog!"
