The little wife is pretty
He was going to town the next day, so Cheng Huai called Jiang Miao up very early.
The younger daughter-in-law still held him to sleep, but fortunately she didn't move much when she slept at night. As long as he was held by her, he felt peaceful.
Seeing that she was awake, Cheng Huai went out to wash up and pack things.
Jiang Miao dug out the new clothes Yu Ying made for her. She hadn't worn them the past two days, but she could just wear them to go to town today.
The door was still closed, and Yu Ying was making breakfast behind.
After changing her clothes, Jiang Miao went to the back yard. Cheng Huai had already finished washing and was eating steamed buns.
There was a bright color at the door, and Cheng Huai subconsciously looked up, his eyes paused.
Yu Ying came out with the porridge and couldn't help but praise: "Oh, my Miao girl looks really good today!"
Jiang Miao was a little shy and said, "Mom, you praised me last time."
"Why, I praised you last time but I can't praise you today? It seems that you don't want me to praise you, but you want others to praise me." Yu Ying pointed out something and looked at Cheng Huai who was eating steamed buns.
Jiang Miao didn't mean this in her heart, but when Yu Ying made such a joke, she couldn't help but look at Cheng Huai.
Cheng Huai immediately looked away, lowered his head and ate the buns expressionlessly, but his chewing speed was obviously different.
Jiang Miao couldn't help but chuckle to herself, the rough man was indeed a boring gourd.
Yu Ying glanced at his son with disgust, then quickly stopped looking at him and asked Jiang Miao to go over and drink porridge.
After breakfast, Yu Ying put all the steamed buns into a basket, put courgettes, cowpeas and other vegetables into another, and put all the red dates dried in the past two days together.
After talking to Jiang Miao about what she wanted to buy today, she urged the two of them to go out.
Naturally, Cheng Huai carried all the things, so Jiang Miao took two straw hats and followed him with her own money bag.
Today I need to buy meat and chickens. I have run out of flour for making steamed buns at home, so I need to buy some too.
Jiang Miao also wanted to see if there was any fish for sale. After eating tofu yesterday, she was a little craving for fish stewed with tofu.
I can't even think about it, my mouth is watering just thinking about it.
When we arrived at the entrance of the village, most of the people on the bullock cart were already sitting in the cart, chatting animatedly.
Cheng Huai gave the money and put the things on the empty space on the bullock cart. Seeing that Jiang Miao did not climb on the cart by herself today, he was a little confused.
I saw her pulling at the hem of her clothes again. I guess she was afraid of getting her new clothes dirty, so she didn't climb into the car by herself like before.
The crowd was almost full, and Uncle Li in front was shouting to get ready to leave, so Cheng Huai bent down to pick up the ginger seedlings, and after a while put them on the bullock cart.
Holding the rough man's arm and sitting firmly, Jiang Miao looked at him and thanked him.
She was wearing a blue dress today, which made her cheeks fair and pretty, and her long eyelashes were fluttering and she looked particularly good-looking.
Cheng Huai walked slowly beside her, glancing at her from time to time.
Jiang Miao didn't notice this, and her ears were all focused on the voices of the women chatting behind her.
Aunt Zhang took the lead, first scolding the chicken thief, and then started discussing Wang Dagui's marriage. When they were about to get off the oxcart in town, Aunt Zhang cursed the chicken thief again.
Jiang Miao finally understood why Yu Ying asked her to go around Aunt Zhang's house. After listening to it all the way, Aunt Zhang didn't use the same curse words, and she learned a lot.
Aiming at the same position as last time, Jiang Miao ran faster than Aunt Zhang this time. Cheng Huai also walked over quickly and looked at Aunt Zhang who was walking over with a cold look.
With such a strong man standing here with a fierce look on his face, Aunt Zhang naturally did not dare to bump into Jiang Miao like she did last time.
She curled her lips, took the dishes and went to find another place.
After setting up the steamed buns and vegetable baskets, Jiang Miao started shouting as usual when he saw that there were more people, and soon many people came over.
"Big sister, I've been waiting for you!"
"Are there any spicy buns from last time today? Make five for me. My mother-in-law loves them!"
"Three spicy ones, and then three others."
Jiang Miao looked up and saw that these were all regular customers. She immediately answered with a smile: "Yes, there is an extra kind of stuffed cabbage vermicelli today. Do you want to buy one and try it?"
"Then pickled vegetables, please change it to cabbage vermicelli. I'll taste it first."
"Okay, I'll install it for you right away." Jiang Miao installed it for them one by one.
After giving the money to Cheng Huai, one of them became curious: "Which one is the cabbage vermicelli?"
Jiang Miao looked up and pointed at one of them, "It should be this one."
The man immediately broke the bun into two halves and saw that there was plenty of cabbage vermicelli inside, so he took a bite with satisfaction and anticipation.
The entrance is filled with the fragrance of cabbage, mixed with the unique taste of vermicelli, with a fresh and sweet taste and a long aftertaste.
Jiang Miao was also looking forward to the other person's reaction after tasting it, "Uncle, how does it taste?"
"It's delicious, fresh and sweet." The other person finished the rest in a few mouthfuls and took out another two cents, "Pack two more for me."
Seeing that the other party liked him, Jiang Miao instantly smiled and frowned, "Okay!"
It seems that I can make more of this stuffing next time.
The steamed buns sold out as fast as ever, but for the courgettes and cowpeas, only a few people asked about them, and they only bought a pound or two.
After selling out the steamed buns, Jiang Miao didn't hold on any longer, and she and Cheng Huai carried the baskets to the nearby restaurant and inn.
Seeing Jiang Miao and the strong man behind her, the waiter came up to her with a rag and said with a smile: "Miss Jiang is here!"
The business on the first floor looks good. Almost every table has cold dishes, which Jiang Miao taught them last time.
"Well, I'm here to deliver some food." Jiang Miao pointed to the things in the basket, "Brother, can you see what can be collected?"
The waiter stepped forward and took a look, then nodded quickly: "Miss Jiang, come with me to the kitchen. Our shopkeeper Xiao has specially told us that we can accept any dishes from you in the future."
The stone hanging in Jiang Miao's heart fell to the ground, and she followed behind and asked gently: "What kind of dishes are usually available in restaurants?"
The waiter turned his head and instantly understood what Jiang Miao meant, and quickly replied: "Usually it's just ordinary vegetables, such as eggplant, melon, and cowpeas, which are eaten every day. After the season, there are other vegetables, such as tofu and leeks.
, fish, and when the weather gets cold, I need more pork.”
He paused for a moment, glanced at Jiang Miao and Cheng Huai, and said in a high tone: "But Miss Jiang's family probably doesn't raise pigs, otherwise she would have become fat."
"Not for the time being." Jiang Miao couldn't help but laugh. What this little second brother said was quite interesting.
Cheng Huai's eyes fell on Jiang Miao who was chatting in front of him, then he looked at the waiter and raised the basket in front of the waiter with one hand, "I'd like to thank you, brother."
The man's eyes were sharp. The waiter stopped smiling and looked serious. After checking whether the dishes were all fresh, he came over with a scale to weigh them.
Thirty kilograms of courgettes, twenty kilograms of cowpeas and eggplants, three kilograms of two kilograms, sixty kilograms, plus courgettes, it is ninety kilograms.
The waiter gave the money and when he saw Cheng Huai looking at the wooden cage next to him, he said more: "Chickens and ducks are also needed. If there are wild products, the price will be almost twice as high."
