Chapter 180 Don’t give her even a single bun
The business was open, and gradually passers-by and people living nearby began to come and buy.
Business was good. Li Honggang's face was frozen with laughter all morning. He secretly calculated that if he gave him half, he would have made at least 60 yuan.
It is said that everything is difficult at the beginning, but this time with Chen Xiaoying as a living sign, business is very good.
Chen Xiaoying had already seen that area. On the way back, Chen Xiaoying said to Li Honggang: "If you work hard and open a breakfast shop there, the business will be good."
The fourth child, Li Honggang, was pedaling the tricycle hard and said subconsciously: "Mom, I don't have any money, and I'm not that material."
He thinks he can't do it.
Chen Xiaoying said: "When I was in the village, I didn't think I was good at doing business. Now look at me, am I not famous for my work?"
She didn't ask the fourth child to open a breakfast shop. He was shy and didn't like to talk. He was only suitable for working with his head down and was not suitable for greeting people. She just gave it a try to see if she could try to change it.
The fourth child, Li Honggang, still smiled and said nothing.
He dare not.
When Chen Xiaoying returned to the store, Hao Cailing asked with a smile: "How is the business?"
She thought it should be good, and they were all back at this time.
Chen Xiaoying smiled: "It's okay. The steamed buns and the big pot of vegetables are all sold out. It's okay as long as nothing is wasted."
Rather than making money, Chen Xiaoying, a lifelong farmer, felt more distressed when her food was spoiled in the pot. So when she finally saw that the buns were cold and there was still some food left in the pot, she gave others more. If you find it delicious, come again.
On the second, third, and fourth days, Chen Xiaoying took Li Honggang to sell steamed buns. However, on the fifth day, she discovered that there was an additional stall nearby selling steamed buns.
Chen Xiaoying has imitated it many times since she started doing business, such as the fried skewers at the beginning, and now the breakfast shop diagonally opposite the entrance of Chen Li Xiao Restaurant, which also sells steamed buns and big pot dishes.
Why is it that while her business is going on, the breakfast shop diagonally across the street is always full of kittens and looks lukewarm?
That's because her food is delicious and you won't get tired of it.
Even if they get tired of eating and eat other people's food after a while, they still want to come back and continue eating.
"Mom, what should I do?" Li Hong started to worry.
Chen Xiaoying smiled: "This street doesn't belong to us. People can sell whatever they want here."
She could see clearly, but the old woman selling steamed buns over there rolled her eyes at her with disgust.
Most people are willing to experience new things. If there is a new stall, it will also sell steamed buns, that is, people will come to buy them.
As a result, within two days, the buns there could no longer be sold.
Chen Xiaoying secretly asked someone to buy two and tasted them. The dough was not soft enough and there was too much oil in it. After one bite, it felt delicious, but after eating it, it felt boring.
Nowadays, people's lives are getting better and better, and steamed buns stuffed with cabbage and meat are no longer as rare as before. They all want more choices.
Just like her buns, there are healthy buns with mushrooms, fungus, carrots and bamboo shoots mixed together, buns with diced mushrooms and pork, buns with long beans and minced meat, and green vegetable and tofu buns without any meat or oil, which are pure meat fillings. Sauce pork buns, the secret recipe is unique.
The hot pot ingredients in the big pot dishes are now under a contract with the county government. She can only make and sell them at home, and cannot hand over the secret recipe to others, which makes it impossible to imitate.
Moreover, her family is also willing to add ingredients, unlike other families who are reluctant to add meat, but they can mix meat and fat into it.
On this day, Li Yutong was coming back, and Chen Xiaoying stopped setting up a stall with her fourth son, Li Honggang. After sending people to the place, she was ready to go back.
"Mom, I can't do it alone, can I?" This was Li Honggang's first time setting up a stall by himself, and he felt scared like a three- or four-year-old child who was about to leave his own mother.
Chen Xiaoying said: "What are you afraid of? No one will eat you."
Li Honggang was in his 20s and felt that it was quite embarrassing for him to do this. He could only watch his mother go.
After Chen Xiaoying left, Li Honggang felt a little embarrassed. Every stall he looked at, he felt like people were secretly glaring at him, and he felt as if he was robbing money from other people's pockets.
I was feeling embarrassed.
"Fourth brother, why are you setting up a stall here?"
Li Hong just turned around to look at the familiar voice and smiled: "Second sister."
It turned out to be Li Hongli. Li Hongli's home is not far or near from here, about five or six minutes away. She usually doesn't go out to eat very much. Today was just a coincidence. Her mother-in-law fried chili tomatoes again, and she couldn't eat it, so she wanted to come to the street to eat.
"What are you doing?" She walked over curiously.
"My mother gave me a job, asking me to sell steamed buns. Have you eaten yet? I'll get you what you want to eat." Li Honggang was feeling uncomfortable alone. His second sister Li Hongli came, and he was nervous. The energy is gone.
"Okay, I've long missed the big meat buns made by our mother." Li Hongli said happily. Before Li Hong could take them, she lifted up the steamer and took two big buns for herself.
Li Honggang smiled and watched her eat, then asked her: "How does your mother-in-law treat you?"
He was polite and polite, but when Li Hongli was asked about her inner feelings, she immediately began to complain about him.
He didn't eat well, and he cursed people badly, and he almost cried while talking.
At this time, people started to come to buy things one after another. Some people were embarrassed to come because they saw people crying at this stall.
Li Honggang watched helplessly as someone bought it from another stall.
In the end, there were about ten steamed buns left which was rare today. Li Hongli said: "Fourth brother, if you take it back, my mother will definitely say that you are not good at selling it. Just give them all to me. I will eat them and my mother will eat them." Don’t say anything more.”
Li Honggang is also generous. He makes all his buns for his girl.
Li Hongli left happily.
When Li Hong just returned to the store and had some time to settle accounts with his mother, Chen Xiaoying, Chen Xiaoying realized that Li Hongli had gone to take advantage.
She couldn't help but sigh: "You shouldn't let her smell it. Just watch, she will come to you tomorrow."
Li Honggang didn't know what happened between his second sister, Li Hongli, and their mother, Chen Xiaoying. Although he felt uncomfortable giving his second sister a house as a dowry, he didn't say anything after he had already given it to her.
It sounds like he has a strong opinion on the second sister.
"Mom, the second sister is not having a good life in her husband's family. If she wants to eat steamed buns, let her eat them," he said.
Chen Xiaoying glanced at him: "In the eyes of your second sister, only her man Xu Xiaodong is good to you, and that means he can take advantage of you. If you were warm to you in the past when she couldn't take advantage of you at all, Have you passed?"
Li Hong just thought about it and realized that he really didn't. Not only was he not enthusiastic, sometimes he talked about her, but she pretended not to hear him and didn't take him seriously.
"Mom, what should we do?"
"It's okay if you don't give it. Our natal family gave her a house and it's worthy of her. When she went to school, you gave her tuition and living expenses. You're worthy of her. It's like she owed you the wages she didn't pay." You, why are you embarrassed first?" Chen Xiaoying said: "Tomorrow, you don't want to give her a bun."
