Chapter 191 Going Home
It’s unknown how long we have to wait for the two of them to mix the jelly, so Zhou Mingshu did it herself. The taste she makes will only be good, not bad.
"Hey, Madam Boss, this girl stole your things!"
A fierce-looking woman grabbed Zhou Mingshu's wrist.
"Auntie, you misunderstood. This is my own stall." Zhou Mingshu explained.
The woman ignored him and looked at Liu and Zhu.
They then put down their work and came over, "What a misunderstanding, this is really my daughter, her skill in mixing cold dishes is better than ours."
Liu patted Zhou Mingshu on the shoulder.
"Oh, so that's it, I misunderstood you." The fat aunt's expression suddenly relaxed, and she apologized to Zhou Mingshu with a smile.
"Aunt, it's okay. It's rare to find someone as righteous as you. Fortunately, you reminded me. I'll give you half a bowl later."
"Hahaha, okay, thank you so much. Didn't you say that the girl's cooking skills are good? Then ask her to make one for me."
"Okay, Auntie, wait a moment, I'll go and adjust it for you."
After Zhou Mingshu got to know Aunt Pang's taste, he mixed a bowl of soup for her. It tasted really good and got her approval.
"Mom, I wanted to send some to Uncle Chen, so I brought a basin over."
"Haha, then you do it, we'll take care of other guests."
"Okay, if you're tired, I'll take over for you for a while."
Zhou Mingshu was in no hurry to leave.
"It's okay. It's not that tiring."
So Zhou Mingshu went back with a bowl of prepared jelly.
Just wait for them to finish selling the jelly and then go to the drugstore to pick her up.
"I knew you went to mix the jelly, and you asked if your uncle came."
Mr. Chen put down the abacus and walked out from behind the counter.
"Haha, Uncle Chen, it's just a bowl of jelly. I want you to taste my cooking skills. I mixed it myself. This sauce is delicious even with shoe soles."
Chen Banxia and Chen Gansong, who were standing by, both burst into laughter when they heard Zhou Mingshu praising themselves like that.
"Still laughing? Go to the backyard and get some chopsticks to try it."
Zhou Mingshu placed the vegetable bowl in the front hall, and a sour and spicy aroma immediately spread throughout the pharmacy, even the scent of medicine in the house was affected.
"Yeah, it's good, but it tastes almost the same as the one your aunt mixed. Isn't that the taste you gave me before?"
Mr. Chen laughed on the side, but what he meant was that he felt that this dish was still made by Liu.
Zhou Mingshu did not explain. As long as everyone thought it tasted good, it didn’t matter who prepared it.
"Girl, what are you eating? It smells delicious. Where did you buy it?"
Several patients asked, the taste smelled sour and spicy, and they all wanted to have a bite.
"The vegetable market is right in front of the market. You can see it as soon as you pass by."
"Okay, I got it. I'll go check it out later."
Invisibly, Zhou Mingshu attracted a few more customers to his business.
Their jelly has been so popular recently that people from the neighborhood come here to buy it.
If you set up a stall in the Jinmiao Town vegetable market, you are bound to meet acquaintances.
The first were the neighbors nearby, everyone knew each other and many of them were their elders. How could Liu ask for their money? She politely said no, but it was impossible for those neighbors not to give money, so most of them just put the money down and left.
If they don’t get one or two bowls, they won’t lose out.
Of course, they also met villagers from Lianglin Village.
We are all from the same village, so we must say hello when we meet.
Liu and Zhu waved their hands to refuse their money, but they still put it down.
The news of how they make a living in the town will probably spread as well.
But this is nothing surprising. Didn’t the Zhou family run a braised meat business before?
After the six buckets of jelly were sold out, Boss Zhou drove a donkey cart to Baicaotang to pick up Zhou Mingshu.
Mr. Chen grabbed a handful of money from the drawer and wanted to give it to Zhou Mingshu, but how could she accept it? She quickly refused.
"Uncle Chen, it would be too polite if you gave me money. Please put it away. It's just two bowls of jelly."
Seeing that she didn't want it, Mr. Chen didn't force it on her.
It's really not a good look to see such pulling and tugging, he is not the kind of person who would do that.
Mr. Chen helped her move her things onto the donkey cart, then waved goodbye.
"Sanya, did you buy all this?"
"Yeah, I bought it in the county town. How is it? Not bad, right? Let's divide it up when we get home."
"OK."
The aroma of these jars of wine could be smelled from a long distance away, and Boss Zhou was extremely happy.
"Let's go, let's go home."
With a slight flick of the donkey whip, the donkey cart started moving slowly.
Seeing her come back, the children of Old Zhou's family all ran over to warmly welcome her.
Not seeing you for a day makes me miss you so much.
They were also waiting for Zhou Mingshu to tell them about the hustle and bustle in the county town.
"Big sister, come over here and help me move the things."
Zhou Mingshu stood at the front of the car and handed it down little by little.
"I'm coming."
"Wow, what is this? It smells sweet, so nice~"
Zhou Mingqi could smell the sweet scent through the oil paper package.
"Well, I brought you some pastries. Share them with everyone. I hope they taste good~"
After moving the small things, it was time to move some heavier tables.
Zhou Mingshu jumped out of the car and asked his father and others to move the remaining things.
Because Boss Zhou had already entered the kitchen with those jars of wine...
"Si Ya, come here."
Zhou Mingshu took out a porcelain bottle from his body, which contained some fruit candies.
"Here, sister promised you, remember not to eat too much, be careful of toothache."
Zhou Mingshu rubbed Zhou Minghua's little face.
"Yes, Si Ya will be obedient."
Zhou Minghua was so happy that he poured one out and put it in his mouth.
This crystal candy is so delicious, sour and sweet.
"Sister, is there anything for me?"
Zhou Mingyuan looked expectantly at the basket on the ground.
"Hahaha, of course there is. This is it. This is a slingshot (called 'shooting' in ancient times). You have one and Xiaojie has one. You can shoot for fun."
Zhou Mingjie and Zhou Mingyuan were overjoyed; this slingshot had always been their dream.
This time, they are going to become the kings of children in Lianglin Village.
See who wouldn't envy them.
"The rest are the cakes and pastries, because the money grandma gave me is only enough to buy these, hehe."
It’s great to have so many surprises, no one cares whether there is a gift that is unique to them.
Zhou Mingzhi can also play with those two slingshots.
Zhou Laosan had already taken the slingshot from Zhou Mingyuan and was playing with it, as if there were a few birds on the wall.
Seeing Zhou Mingshu surrounded by a group of people, Old Mrs. Zhou smiled happily but did not come over, concentrating on cooking.
After drinking some tea, Zhou Mingshu recounted his experiences in the county town in detail, and everyone was envious and yearning for it.
When Zhou Mingshu said that the food in that restaurant was not as delicious as his grandmother's, they showed disgusted expressions again.
