Chapter 349 The Second Son Dashan
Chapter 349 The Second Son Dashan
Su He ordered a bowl of pickled vegetable and shredded pork noodles and started eating.
"Hehua, give us some of your noodles too."
"Hey, old lady, can you finish this?"
Su He turned around and called out, and someone brought the food to the table.
"It's okay. We still have Tiedan. We can give him whatever we can't finish."
Mother Zhang said nonchalantly. Su He looked at Zhang Xu with sympathy. No wonder Mother Zhang didn't order for him when Zhang Xu wanted to order food just now. It turned out that she was waiting here.
Fortunately, Chen ordered a lot, so Zhang Xu didn't have to worry about not having enough.
Chen ordered the dishes and looked around curiously. When she arrived yesterday, there were many people there and they went directly to the private room. She had never taken a proper look at this tea stall.
The room I stayed in yesterday was not as bad as I imagined. The tea stall was also surprisingly clean, with bluestone slabs on the floor. The waiters who came and went in the tea stall were neatly dressed and patient and enthusiastic when they met customers. Even if I only bought two steamed buns, their attitude did not change.
Chen looked at him with a smile and asked Su He.
"Didn't you say before that you would settle in Qingshan Village, but later your village broke away from it?"
Su He had just finished her noodles. She took a sip of tea and started her story from the beginning about the group of people who embezzled the disaster relief grain.
Su He had actually talked about this before, but this time when I went to the scene and listened to it again, it felt more real.
Su He was tired of talking, so she sent her grandmother over. She already knew that the old lady in the ordinary blue dress was the old lady of the Zhao family. Yesterday, her granddaughter assigned her a task to chat with her. This was not easy, because she was the best at chatting. She also asked her sister-in-law Zheng to accompany her.
Including Mother Zhang, the four old people ate snacks and chatted together. Grandma had been at the tea stall for a few months and had gained a lot of gossip. She knew something about every young servant and villager who came to line up. The four of them were talking excitedly at the moment.
Seeing that she was no longer needed, Su He went home and took a nap.
I went to a tea stall for lunch at noon and started helping to skewer the meat.
We have to skewer more meat today. Fortunately, it’s past dinner time and there are fewer customers, so everyone can help.
Su He decided to prepare some more tricks.
Roasted eggplant, chopped pepper pork brain, roasted chicken feet, roasted pork belly, roasted sausage, cabbage skewers, mushroom skewers, and her homemade stinky tofu skewers.
Chop up the cilantro, minced garlic and green onions and fill a large bowl with them, ready to be sprinkled with the ingredients later.
In addition to this, Su He also specially instructed Su Yuzhi to make two grilled fish. After cooking in the pot, they were directly placed on a special iron plate. Modern induction cookers are used, but here a charcoal brazier was used instead.
The first batch of grilled fish was enjoyed by people at the tea stall, and the new grilled fish received unanimous praise, with some even complaining that it was not spicy enough.
"This chili powder is too little. This garlic is really delicious. Lotus, I think we can add more. It's not enough."
"I think one of the cilantro and the green onion is enough."
"You have to turn the fish over from time to time to prevent it from getting burnt. The waiter has to check on it from time to time."
Everyone gave their suggestions and Yanzhi was responsible for recording them, organizing them, and informing everyone how to take care of the guests eating grilled fish.
Su He thought about it for a while, and asked someone to go to Wuyu Village to order 10 big fish. The Chen group would eat four of them later, so 10 would definitely not be too many.
By the time Chen and his friends arrived at the tea stall, Su He had been grilling skewers for an hour.
Before Chen was about to come to the tea stall, she asked someone to notify Su He, so when she arrived, their skewers were already grilled.
"Cousin, take the old lady to the box."
It was almost dinner time and the tea stall was doing very busy business. For Chen's safety, Su He arranged a private room for them.
When Chen went in, she saw the long square table piled high with food.
In addition to skewers, there are also grilled fish, and fried and spicy chicken feet.
The colors are bright and the fragrance is tempting.
Yanzhi and her friends served plum juice and lemon juice.
"Madam, these grilled skewers have two flavors, the same as yesterday. This one is grilled fish, a new product from our tea stall. It's slightly spicy, with vermicelli, garlic, coriander, and celery. Be careful of the fish bones when you eat it."
"Haha, you guys are thoughtful."
Chen sat dignifiedly, smiling and nodding. Yanzhi left after she finished speaking. There were so many maids here that she was not needed.
As soon as the door was closed, Chen asked her maid to remove the fish bones for her. The red and green things sprinkled on the fish made people drool just by looking at them. Coupled with the overbearing aroma, Chen swallowed her saliva several times while eating the fish.
"Yingying, you're moving too slowly. Please speed up."
Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Zhang started eating eagerly.
Zhang Xu and others outside also sat at a table. They ate the same food, and they also had rice wine given by Su He. The alcohol content was very low, so it was okay to drink a little.
Compared to the private room, there is definitely a more lively atmosphere outside. This is the busiest time for the tea stall. The sky is still bright and the regular customers from the nearby villages have all come. When they heard that there would be new varieties this time, everyone placed an order without thinking. The remaining six fish did not last for half an hour.
But this time, Su He didn't go to restock the stock.
A caravan was coming from afar, and everyone was too busy to spare any manpower.
By the time Chen left the box, 80% of the goods in the tea stall had been sold.
Only Su He was still grilling. As for Li Si, he had already gone home to rest. Su He gave him a day off, so he could rest tomorrow too.
Chen didn't leave even after eating. She took Zhang's mother to stand aside and watch Suhe BBQ. They could watch for half an hour. It was so interesting.
Finally, accompanied by her maid, Chen walked back to the house to rest.
Before leaving, he did not forget to tell Su He, "We will continue tomorrow."
Su He laughed. It seemed that the old lady didn't want to leave.
Chen stayed at the tea stall for a total of five days before setting off for the city.
It wasn't that she wanted to leave. It was only when Zhao Qingli came to pick her up personally that she reluctantly packed up her things and left.
She had indeed been eating to her heart's content these past few days, and the several mouth ulcers in her mouth were proof of that.
Yanzhi touched the one thousand two taels of silver in her arms, her heart pounding. This, this was too much money.
She decided to wait for Su He to come next time and then ask her what to do with the money.
What to do? Of course, deposit it into the account.
Su He left on the morning of the third day after Chen came to Tianyuan Village. She still had to visit the government office every two days, hang around in front of the leaders for a while, and make her presence felt.
Two days after Chen returned to the Zhao Mansion, she returned to the village again, brought with her two midwives introduced by Chen.
Yanzhi happily put the one thousand taels into her account. Everyone at the tea stall knew that Chen had given a large sum of money, and everyone had a share of it.
Now, it was like New Year’s Day in the tea stall, and everyone had a smile on their face.
Three days later, on the night before Su He was due to return to the city, Wen Niang took action.
Since it was her second baby and she was still young, Wen Niang was not that nervous.
The three midwives were busy in the delivery room. Yanzhi also followed up to explain the precautions. The three midwives were very cooperative. Su He also took out the delivery bag she had prepared.
An hour later, Wen Niang's second son, Dashan, came out.
