Nongmen Space: The wife of the chief assistant is busy raising a baby

Chapter 69 Strange Woman
"What is Miao Miao doing at the counter?"

Gu Yuanniang stared at the potholed small cabinet and said.

"That's for cooking oden."

"Oden?" When mentioning food, Song Weiwei suddenly became interested: "What is that, is it delicious?"

Xu Miaomiao smiled mysteriously, and locked herself in the kitchen when she got home that night.

She has to make beef balls, carrots, etc. by herself.

"Dangdangdang—"

Xu Miaomiao opened the door and saw the small figure of Xu Guo outside, holding a bowl in his hand.

"what happened?"

"Eh." Xu Guo said a little embarrassedly: "I'm hungry."

Xu Miaomiao understood that it was normal for such a big child to be hungry at night.

A burst of fragrance from the house attracted the two of them, Xu Guo looked at the contents of the pot with some embarrassment and muttered: "It smells so good."

"Try it." Xu Miaomiao scooped up a bowl and handed it to Xu Guo.

The round meatballs and sweet radish in the bowl made him salivate, and he took a bite immediately, the soft and glutinous opening spread in his mouth, the deliciousness made him speechless.

Seeing the boy's appearance, Xu Miaomiao smiled slightly, scooped it up and tasted it himself, he used to be a food critic, but the food he made now really tastes good.

Seeing that Xu Guo was finished eating, Xu Miaomiao immediately took out a wooden stick and handed it to him, teaching him to thread the meatballs into a skewer.

But it was over in a while, seeing that it was getting late, Xu Miaomiao urged Xu Guo to go to bed.

"Miaomiao, how delicious is it?"

Xu Miaomiao lit a small fire underneath, and the oden was heated on the top. After a night of soaking, it became very tasty and fragrant.

Song Weiwei took one out of it and put it in her mouth, said vaguely: "It's really delicious."

Xu Miaomiao knocked on Song Weiwei's head, and said softly: "If it's all eaten up, what will the guests eat?"

"Got it, got it, the last one!"

Song Weiwei quickly took out a bunch and ran away.

Gu Yuanniang and Xu Miaomiao looked at each other and smiled.

The fragrance diffused around and opened his mouth, and Xu Miaomiao attracted a woman just as he opened the door.

The women are gorgeously dressed, and the elegance of their gestures can be seen everywhere.

"What is this, it smells so good."

"This is oden, my lady, would you like to try it?" Xu Miaomiao said slowly.

"Come and have a taste."

As soon as the words fell, Xu Miaomiao took out a small wooden bucket and packed a few strings for the woman.

As soon as she got it, the woman couldn't wait to taste it, and she was full of praise: "It tastes good."

Seeing that there was less food in the box, the woman smiled awkwardly: "Oh, I have something to do so I won't buy it."

Said, hastily left.

"Miao Miao, you just let her go like this?" Gu Yuanniang asked in bewilderment, "She ate so much for nothing."

Xu Miaomiao shook her head: "Hey, Liu Niang, we can have a tasting."

"Try?" Gu Yuanniang asked with some doubts: "What is that?"

"It's just taking out a little for people to try, and then people who think it's delicious will naturally buy it."

"That's the way I need it." Song Weiwei came to the side and said cheerfully.

Xu Miaomiao immediately took out a few Oden dishes and put them aside and yelled to the outside: "It's free to try, come and have a taste."

With her unremitting efforts, everyone surrounded her.

"Is this really free?" An old woman asked suspiciously.

Xu Miaomiao nodded: "Try it for free, if you think it's delicious, you're buying it."

The old lady came immediately and rushed forward with interest: "I will try, I will try."

Seeing her eating, everyone also picked up a piece to taste: "Well, this thing is delicious, give me two skewers!"

"That's right." The people on the side responded, "I'll have two too."

Gu Yuanniang looked at the crowd of people and smiled from ear to ear.

The look in the eyes of the old woman in the crowd changed, and she was still standing in front of the stall after everyone had left after buying.

"Miss, do you have anything else to do?" Xu Miaomiao asked suspiciously.

"Hey." The woman laughed twice and looked at Xu Miaomiao: "Didn't you say it's a free trial? I'm not full yet, let's make some."

"Hehe." Xu Miaomiao laughed angrily: "There is a limit to this tasting, if everyone is full, what business will I do?"

"Tch." The woman clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction: "Stingy! No one will come to your house in the future!"

"This old woman Miaomiao is too much." Gu Yuanniang opened her mouth and said.

Xu Miaomiao nodded: "Then let's think of a way."

That night, Xu Miaomiao made a wooden board with the words "free tasting" written on it, and there was a line of small characters below that said, eat enough three skewers, and pay by yourself.

"Miao Miao is smart, and can effectively prevent those who take advantage of it."

Xu Miaomiao nodded.

When the tasting sign was displayed, many people were attracted, including the old woman from yesterday.

Zheng Qiang began to eat, seeing that there was nothing left, he patted his stomach in satisfaction and was about to leave but was stopped by Xu Miaomiao.

"What are you doing!" the old woman said dissatisfiedly, "Didn't you say it was free?"

"Under three strings are free, and more than three strings will have to pay." Xu Miaomiao pointed to the sign and said.

Seeing that she had to pay for it, the old woman was not happy: "You said it was free, but I won't pay, what can you do with me?"

"I wrote everything clearly in black and white. Just now, so many people have been eating, so you really don't want to give it?"

"No." The old woman raised her cheeks triumphantly: "What can you do to me!"

"Hehe, report to the officer"

As soon as Xu Miaomiao finished speaking, Song Weiwei was about to go out.

The old woman panicked and stopped her: "How much money, I'll just give you."

"Three coins."

"Three coins!" The old woman was a little shocked: "Why don't you grab it?"

"This also asks why you eat so much."

The old woman blushed and was speechless for a long time, so she gave her the money and ran away in a hurry.

As soon as Xu Miaomiao put down the money, he heard a man say, "Why do you have everything here?"

"We are a department store." Xu Miaomiao opened her mouth to respond, "I have everything for those who don't have time to eat, and those who have to travel far."

"Won't it go bad after leaving it for so long?"

"No." Xu Miaomiao said slowly: "I processed this stuff, and it won't go bad if eaten within two months."

As he said that, the man opened a lion wake cake immediately when he was interested, but it was well preserved.

"Really." The man took a sip, but the taste was serious and it didn't spoil.

"This thing is good." The woman on the side responded, took a few pieces of lion cakes and was about to pay the bill, and kept muttering: "This thing is just right for my children to go to school when there is no time to cook. eat."

"Yes, yes."

With that said, people came to the shelves and began to buy.

Some people bought a lot of beef jerky for their salty taste, while others bought some pastries for their sweet taste.

People coming and going were shopping on the shelves, and Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang were busy replenishing the goods.

When leaving, a few drops of rain fell from the sky, and several people bought some umbrellas before leaving.

"Hehe." Song Weiwei counted the copper coins and laughed: "Today's income is not bad, this is only the first day."

"Okay." Gu Yuanniang teased Song Weiwei, looking at the rain in the sky, it was just pattering, but suddenly it became heavier.

"What is Miao Miao thinking?"

Xu Miaomiao stretched out her hand to catch the raindrops, but Gu Yuanniang pulled her back to her senses.

"I was just thinking, how do we go back." Xu Miaomiao looked at the rain and sighed.

There were fewer people outside the door because of the rain, and there were only those laughing and shouting on the street buying umbrellas.

"Miaomiao, here." Gu Yuanniang handed Xu Miaomiao a coir raincoat, looking at the heavy rain that didn't intend to stop, and prepared to drive home.

Xu Miaomiao was fully dressed, and was about to leave when there was a "Dang Dang Dang" knock on the door.

The voice changed from gentle to urgent.

Song Weiwei couldn't bear it anymore, and opened the door dissatisfied: "Knock what, can't you see the door is closed?"

As soon as the door was opened, there was a woman standing in the rain, drenched to the ground, just about to step in, but saw that her wet feet were still retracted.

After a long time, Song Weiwei saw that she had been silent and asked impatiently: "What are you doing, shopping? Or looking for someone?"

"I, I'm shopping." The woman stammered, and then said, "I'm looking for someone."

"Who are you looking for?" Song Weiwei was a little annoyed, this woman not only had a low voice but also a slow tone.

"Weiwei, don't be rude." Seeing this scene, Xu Miaomiao immediately stopped her and drove Song Weiwei aside.

"My lady, it's raining outside, it's better to come in and talk." Xu Miaomiao's soft voice made the woman in front of her obviously startled.

The woman stared at Xu Miaomiao's cheek, unable to move her eyes away for a long time, realizing her gaffe, she quickly lowered her head in shame: "Yes, it must be Dr. Xu."

"Well, it's me."

"Today, I just thought about how much it would cost if I wanted to buy a piece of Lion Dance Cake."

Xu Miaomiao glanced at the shelf at the back and then at the woman: "Five cents each."

The woman tremblingly took out a few copper coins from her chest and put them in her hands, counting with her head down: "One, two, three, four..."

There were only four copper coins, and the shame made the woman immediately turn around and say, "I won't buy it."

"Wait!" Xu Miaomiao took the woman's arm, but found that she was visibly agitated, and immediately let go, took the last lion wake cake on the shelf and handed it to the woman: "It's raining today. Four pennies a piece."

The woman's eyes were full of hope, and she handed the copper plate in her hand to Xu Miaomiao, and then she took the Lion Wake Crisp.

Carefully holding the pastry with both hands, reluctant to eat, turned and left.

"It's raining, take an umbrella."

Xu Miaomiao held an umbrella and handed it to the woman to cover the raindrops above her head.

"I, I have no money."

"No money, take it."

Handing the umbrella to the woman, Xu Miaomiao quickly took a step back, fearing that the woman would refuse.

"Thank you, thank you."

Saying that, the woman glanced at Xu Miaomiao gratefully, turned and left
