The rain on the second day was indeed a lot less, but it was still raining non-stop. Yi Ren didn't cook, but he still went to the restaurant in the county to deliver mountain products. By the way, how are the roasted seeds and nuts sold?

In the morning, Aunt Li came over with an umbrella and picked up Xiaotuanzi, mainly because she was worried that Yiren didn't have a good umbrella here, and Xiaotuanzi would get sick if she got wet.

Yiren followed Uncle Qing's bullock cart into the city, and as soon as he arrived at Hongwu Street, he saw Chef Zhang and Chef Zhou standing at the entrance of Desheng Restaurant. I don't know what Chef Zhang said, but Chef Zhou flung his sleeves and left .

But he didn't go back to the restaurant, but stood on the other side of the restaurant.

Yi Ren looked at the two of them, one of them was standing on the side of the restaurant, like a doorman in a modern five-star hotel.They all blew their beards and stared, and couldn't help laughing.

Hearing the sound of laughter, the two turned their heads together, and found that Yi Ren was coming, and they both came forward to meet him.

"Yi Ren, did you bring the mountain goods?"

"Yiren, is there still stock for the roasted seeds and nuts?"

The two spoke together.

"I asked first!" Shopkeeper Zhou said first.

"Then I introduced this girl to you! You can't thank me for this friendship!" Chef Zhang said not to be outdone.

"Two chefs, you are standing at the door... are you waiting for me?" Yi Ren asked belatedly.

"Isn't it!" The two said in unison.

Yi Ren didn't understand what the two of them were doing, so they got angry with each other early in the morning, and said cautiously: "You two chefs, what...what do you want from me?"

"I want roasted seeds and nuts. They sold very well yesterday. From now on, every time Jin Bao comes home, that is, every seventh day, each kind of roasted seeds and nuts will cost [-] catties. If it's not convenient for you, just ask Jin Bao to bring them back!" Chef Zhang glanced at Yi Ren's face. belly, said.

Thirty catties of each kind of roasted seeds and nuts, which is about the same as Yiren's estimate!
"Mountain products are needed every day, and thirty catties cannot be less! You can't have his roasted seeds and mine, and I'll tell you, the quality must not be poor!" Chef Zhou said angrily.

Yi Ren understood now, these two were afraid that she would be too busy and would send one less product or lower the quality!
"You can rest assured about the quality and quantity! There is no ambiguity!" Yi Ren took a step forward and stood under the eaves of the restaurant, saving himself from the rain. "You two, let's unload this mountain first, and let my uncle come in and sit down?"

"Jinbao!" Chef Zhang turned his head and shouted into the restaurant. "Call someone to unload the goods!"

Jin Bao came over with a few mistresses, and moved Shan Huo into the restaurant in one trip.

Because he was not sure whether it would rain tomorrow, Yiren didn't buy meat. If it rained and couldn't sell the meat, the meat would be spoiled.

So after paying the bill, getting 150 Wen in hand, and drinking another cup of tea, I got into the bullock cart with Uncle Qing, and returned to the village in an oilcloth.

Until noon, the rain gradually weakened and stopped after a while.Aunt Li led the three children to the door, and Yi Ren was saying that she would go with them today, when she heard a voice from the gate of the courtyard: "Sister Yi Ren!"

They are Qiu's two younger brothers, Sanmao and Simao.The two children went home with a couple of pennies yesterday, but they only brought some flour, feeling uneasy.It was raining again today, and finally the rain stopped, so I ran over quickly.

"It's just in time for you two to come. Let's go to the back mountain together so that I can tell you about the selection of mountain products and what to pay attention to!"

"Yiren, don't go, you are too heavy, it has just rained, and the back mountain is muddy, don't slide any more! I'll just teach you about the mountain stuff, haven't you taught me before! You take these two little ones to my house , with your sister-in-law Sujuan, I will take Cuixi and the Qiu family to the back mountain!"

Unable to resist Aunt Li, Yi Ren took Erniu and Xiaotuanzi, carried a basket, took a lot of flour and eggs, and went to Aunt Li's house.

"Sister-in-law Sujuan! Auntie helped me go up the back mountain, and I'll make dinner!" Yiren said to Aunt Li's eldest daughter-in-law Sujuan who came out to welcome her.

"I can do it!" Sujuan's sister-in-law looks ordinary, but she has a gentle personality, and she always gives people a shy and kind feeling on her face. "Mother, I'm bothering you to run!"

Su Juan knew that her mother-in-law could earn more than ten or twenty copper coins from Yi Ren every day, and she was very happy. It was too late to thank Yi Ren. How could she think that her mother-in-law left herself to help Yi Ren!

"You play a lot more than I do every month! You should rest!" Yi Ren let the two children play, put down the flour eggs, and followed Sujuan's sister-in-law into the house. "Ah! Sister-in-law, you embroidered this? It's so beautiful!"

From the memory Yi Ren inherited from the original owner, she knew that her childhood playmate Qiu Guifen and Su Juan's sister-in-law were both good at embroidery, but as a modern person, she rarely saw machine embroidery, let alone hand embroidery.

The only machine embroidery I’ve ever seen was when Yiren University had a female classmate who loved wearing Hanfu, so she only knew a thing or two.

At this time, I saw the embroidery on the kang table. Although it was an ordinary pattern of flowers and birds, the flowers were brightly colored and the petals were clearly patterned. The feathers of the birds were lifelike, and their wings seemed to fly at any time.The details are very meticulous, and the color matching is also very coordinated.

"What is this?" Su Juan blushed, a little embarrassed by Yi Ren's compliment. "Gui Fen's craftsmanship is so much better than mine! No one in ten miles or eight villages can find another one with her skills!"

"It's all good! I really can't learn your skills! This is a handicraft job!" Yi Ren admired those craftsmen who inherited intangible cultural heritage before wearing books.

"Sister-in-law Sujuan, are you embroidering a quilt?" Yi Ren took the embroidery support and flipped through it repeatedly, fearing that her rough hands would scratch it, so she didn't touch the embroidered surface.

"Yes, this is the magpie's good news. The big family in the county wants to marry their daughter, and they will send the embroidery work to the embroidery workshop. I will take over the embroidery workshop's work!" Seeing that Yiren didn't touch the embroidery surface, Su Juan felt relieved.

Yi Ren thought of all kinds of bags in modern times. If such beautiful patterns were embroidered on bags, it would really be a "cure for all diseases"!But I don't know if women of this era will like it
Yi Ren flipped through it for a while, then handed it back to Su Juan, and went to cook.When it was almost time for dinner, Aunt Li also came back with Cuixi and Qiu's two boys.

"Sister Yiren, can you come and see me and the three of you!" Simao shouted at Yiren, who was only seven years old and still a child at heart.

Yi Ren's food was almost ready, so he followed him and walked over to look at the mountain goods in the basket.I saw that the mountain goods were not only divided according to the type, but had even been cleaned and cleaned.Looking at the size and skin, it is obviously also selected.

"San Mao Si Mao and Cui Xi are both amazing!" Yi Ren praised. "Quick, wash your hands and let's eat!"

Sanmao and Simao hesitated, Aunt Li hurriedly greeted: "This is brought by your Yiren sister, it's not my wife who wants to keep you eating! Come here quickly!"

The two children just sat down, and today Yiren made a large pot of pimple soup, using lard and eggs, and even stroked a handful of small cabbage in Aunt Li's small vegetable patch, which was green and floating, making people watch Very appetizing.

There are also garlic eggplant and loofah egg soup.The steamed eggplant is covered with a thick layer of mashed garlic and shallots, and the lard is heated and poured, and the aroma is tangy.The loofah egg soup is thick, white and mellow, salty and delicious.

"Yiren, how do you make this noodle soup? It's so delicious!" Sister-in-law Sujuan couldn't help asking curiously after taking a sip of the hot, soft glutinous pimple soup.

"The lump soup is white noodles, lard and some small side dishes. If my sister-in-law wants to learn it, I will teach you another day!" Yi Ren said without any secrecy.

"No, no, I'm just asking casually!" Sujuan knew that many of Yiren's meals were unique and could earn money, so how could she ask for the recipe!

Yiren understood Sujuan's sister-in-law's worries, and explained: "It's okay, sister-in-law, this pimple soup won't taste good after a long time, so it's delicious when it's freshly made, and it can't be sold at a stall." Yes, it’s okay to teach you!”

After a meal, Yiren gave Aunt Li fifteen copper coins as usual, and Cuixi an additional four copper coins. After some evasion, Aunt Li and Sister-in-law Sujuan let Cuixi accept it, and by the way, they also gave three cents and four cents to Cuixi. The salary was given.Then, with Xiaotuanzi and San Mao Si Mao, several of them either carried or carried baskets, they went to the Yiren's house at the entrance of the village.

When the two boys from Qiu's family left, Yiren warned: "Don't talk to anyone about working in my house, and don't mention anything! This way my business can last for a long time, and you can get more money, understand. What!"

San Mao nodded heavily: "Sister and mother have already told us, if we say it, we will tear our mouths apart!" San Mao made a gesture of tearing his mouth, making Yi Ren laugh.

After Sanmao and Simao were sent away, Yiren took Xiaotuanzi and fell into a deep sleep. Before going to bed, she was still praying that tomorrow would be a sunny day so that she would not delay leaving the stall.
