Chapter 82 Student Meals
In fact, Zhang Xiuyu didn't need to shout too hard, many students went straight to their small stall following the smell of food. A young boy in his teens, Fang Dongbao was at the age of high school in his previous life, and he was hungry before noon. The chest is attached to the back, otherwise I would not have come out to buy snacks to satisfy my hunger.

Soon, Dongbao's business opened, and the ten bowls she brought from the tofu stall were not enough at all. Many students waited anxiously for the people in front of them to finish eating, and planned to buy vegetables with bowls.

"What kind of dish is this?" A student asked after eating it, feeling delicious.

Dong Bao smiled and said, "It's tofu. If my brother thinks it's delicious, come and eat it at our place tomorrow at noon!"

"Tofu? Can tofu be so delicious?" The students who came to eat were all amazed. That is to say, people who are poor and have no food at home order tofu with coarse salt, but the tofu they order is salty and astringent, which is not delicious. .

One of the older students said: "It's not that the tofu in all places is not good. My second uncle traveled all over the world to do business, and I heard from him that the tofu in some places is delicious. Our tofu is not good. Said it was because of bad water."

Dong Bao pursed his lips and smiled. The reason why the water is not good is that the people in Anzhou haven’t mastered the craft of tofu. Someone else has already figured it out. Those who have mastered the technology I kept a close eye on this craft of my own, and didn't make it public.

Seeing that there are still many people waiting for the bowl to eat, Dong Bao turned his head and said quickly: "Brothers, do you have bowls in the academy, and it's the same for using them."

A few students suddenly realized that they slapped their heads and hurried back to get the bowls. When they came back, there were not only these people who came. It turned out that these people told the students who were queuing up to cook that someone was selling rice. The food was quite delicious, and those people didn't want to cook anymore, so they rushed over with their bowls.

In a short time, the whole pot of vegetables and pancakes was sold out, and many people who heard the news did not catch up. Dong Bao quickly promised that he would come tomorrow and cook more than today.Many people stopped by Li Lifeng's shop after finishing their dishes to buy pastries.

Before starting to sell rice, Dong Bao had reserved two spoonfuls of vegetables for Li Lifeng in advance. Her family's spoons are big, and one spoonful of vegetables is enough for one person.

When closing the stall, Zhang Xiuyu felt that Dongbao was young, so she refused to let her help clean up the stove, so she turned off the stove by herself and brought it to the backyard of the shop.When he came back, he pursed his lips tightly, and dragged Dong Bao away with a burden.Li Lifeng was busy in the shop and called them loudly to eat here at noon, but Zhang Xiuyu suddenly didn't hear it, and dragged Dong Bao away dully.

Dong Bao had no choice but to turn around and shout to his uncle, "No, uncle, we're going home!"

Along the way, Zhang Xiuyu's face was not very good-looking, Dong Bao took her hand, and asked with a smile: "Sister, what's the matter with you? Who made you angry?"

Zhang Xiuyu pouted, "Who else but her! When I went to return the stove in the backyard, she kept babbling, saying that firewood is expensive, coal is expensive, and that we blocked her business, and students would buy it." After eating our dishes and pancakes, I won’t buy her snacks anymore!”

Dong Bao sighed, Gao Shi is a stingy person, her little firewood and coal are worthless at all, and the tofu and vegetables they send to the uncle's house every day far exceed this amount. There is no such thing. Students buy dim sum as snacks, so they should buy it or buy it.On the contrary, Dongbao felt that because of their stall, more students came out, and the business in the shop was better.

Of course, it's meaningless to argue with Gao Shi about these reasons, she just thinks that you took advantage of her and she lost a lot of money.

"Be patient." Dong Bao whispered, "When we have saved enough money, we will also open a shop, so we don't need to borrow someone else's roof."

Zhang Xiuyu's eyes sparkled when she heard this, "Really? We can also open a shop?" In her eyes, opening a shop is a very grand and grand event, and only those who do big business can open a shop, like her Dad, he is busy all year round, and he is just driving a carriage to do business, and he doesn't have his own shop.

"Of course, we will not only open a shop in Yuanshui, but also open a shop in Anzhou and other places." Dong Bao said with a smile, "At that time, we will just sit at home and count the money. Already!"

Zhang Xiuyu giggled, "What's the matter? The bigger the business, the more you worry about it. Counting money is the accountant's business!"

"You're pretty knowledgeable!" Dong Bao laughed.

"When my father was still there, he often told me about the big goods stores in Anzhou City, saying that those owners were very busy. Outsiders only saw that they made a lot of money, but didn't see them worrying about taking risks." Zhang Xiuyu smiled. road.

Dong Bao nodded. The more you get, the more you pay. It takes a lot more effort to do a big business than their small business. Moreover, doing business not only depends on skills and secret recipes, but also depends on contacts and relationships.At present, the only person she can rely on is Mrs. Li. Just a tofu stall with a good business, there are people like Ergou to grab the business.Ergou is just a village ruffian, powerless, and Dongbao is not afraid to take him on, but what if someone with some power comes and covets their tofu business?It is easy to rely on their orphans and widows to feed themselves, but it is difficult to do big business.

When they returned to Mrs. Li, Quanzi and Shuanzi had already gone home.Dong Bao was pleasantly surprised to find that the tofu was also sold out. The tofu curd was not enough to sell every day, but the tofu was sold out for the first time in a few days. This indicated that the people around Yuanshui Town had begun to accept this kind of food, and the future business The big day is just around the corner.

Before they were scattered, Dong Bao took Zhang Xiuyu to the market to buy ten catties of wheat noodles, a three catties of grass carp, a two catties of pork, and a big gourd.

When the two of them brought their things back, Li Hongqin pointed at the gourd and said with a smile, "Our gourd seedlings have just started to climb the poles, and their gourds can be sold for money."

Gourds usually mature in large quantities in June and July, and it is only May now, so it is rare to grow such a large gourd.Shredded gourds are delicious for stir-frying or making dumplings.

"Let's eat dumplings stuffed with gourds at noon." Dong Bao said with a smile, this year their vegetable fields were planted late, and next year they planted the vegetable seeds as soon as possible to keep enough for the whole family.

She really can't bear to eat sorghum noodles and cornmeal anymore. Occasionally eating a few coarse grains can be said to be a way to adjust her diet. Eating a few meals a day means that the quality of life is low. Now the life at home is much better, and improving life is the top priority.

The family rushed home with joy, Li Shi and Li Hongqin felt sorry for the two little girls, and carried all the things they brought when they came, Dongbao and Zhang Xiuyu were also happy.The wildflowers on the country road in May were just in bloom. Zhang Xiuyu was very handy, and soon she wove a wreath with small wildflowers on the side of the road and put it on Dongbao's head.

Black and shiny hair, colorful garlands, Dongbao's red lips and white teeth, and regular eyebrows.

"Look at Dongbao these days, her hair is darker than before." Li Hongqin was quite emotional. When she was in the Song family, Dongbao couldn't even eat enough, and her hair was a little yellow. It was much brighter before.

Dong Bao was afraid that the garland on his head would fall off, so he pressed the garland and raised his head to look at Li Shi and Li Hongqin, and said with a smile: "Mother and aunt have also turned white a lot!" Soy milk is the best whitening product, and I eat tofu every day , Can there be a "Tofu Xishi"?
In fact, the change of Mrs. Li is the most obvious. In the past, Mrs. Li had to work in the fields every day, going there under the sun and raining heavily. Her skin was dark yellow and rough, and her mental state was poor. Now Mrs. Li is in charge of her own business. She had no worries about food and drink, and it was only a matter of time before she paid off her debts. She was full of energy, and the soybean milk nourished her hands and face. In less than ten days, Li Shi seemed to be reborn as another person.

After the group arrived home, Li Shi and Li Hongqin started kneading noodles and chopping dumpling fillings.Dong Bao also wanted to wash her hands to help, but Mrs. Li refused to let her do it, and said, "Bao'er, you don't need to do it anymore, go to your Aunt Qiuxia's house and call Da Shi and Quan Zi to our house to eat dumplings."

Dong Bao responded and went out, but he didn't expect to be grabbed by the hand and dragged aside as soon as he went out.Dong Bao was about to blurt out a scream in fright, but now that he saw the face of the person coming, he suppressed the scream forcefully.

"I'm scared to death, Brother Da Shi!" Dong Bao said, patting his chest.

Lin Shi lowered his head and looked at Dong Bao, his usually warm and warm eyes were now full of anger, and his lips were tightly pursed, as if he was very angry with Dong Bao.

"What's the matter with you?" Dong Bao noticed something was wrong, pulled Lin Shi's sleeve, and asked cautiously.

Lin Shiqi's head was dizzy for a while, and the little girl was still as if nothing had happened. After a while, she calmed down the anger in her heart and said, "What's the matter with you in the morning? You ran to smash Ergou's stall by yourself? I lost you, what should I do?" Thinking that the little girl he was protecting wholeheartedly might be beaten by that bastard Ergou, Lin Shi's anger that had been calmed down surged again.

"Who's alone..." Dong Bao smiled embarrassingly, "Isn't there Quanzi and Shuanzi following him?"

Seeing that Lin Shi just ignored her with a sullen face, Dong Bao also felt that his defense was not very successful. In Lin Shi's eyes, both Quanzi and Shuanzi together could not be considered an adult.

"He didn't dare to hit me." Dong Bao took Lin Shi's hand and said seriously, "He pretended to be our tofu, so he was already guilty, and besides, there were so many people watching on the street, including Quanzi and Shuanzi. Now, he can't move this hand."

Lin Shi stretched out his hand and rubbed Dongbao's head. Quanzi and Shuanzi, two idiots, returned home and told him excitedly how powerful Sister Dongbao was, how dare she compete with Ergou, the most scumbag in the village. Come on, as expected of a tigress...
