Chapter 21 Don't be wronged

Su Xiaomu thought about his words and said.

"The wild vegetables in the mountains are getting older and older now. Our pancake business will not last long in the future. We can only sell them for another half month at most."

"So these days, my wife has been thinking about whether to change her career. Finally, there is an additional way to make money in the family. Everyone's life is easy and fast. We can't live the same as before. We always have to save money for my husband."

Just pay for the expenses in time for the exam."

Su Xiaomu's eyes were rolling: "So, Mom, I want to go to the city to see more and see what kind of career we should change next?"

"Change your career?"

Mrs. Li roughly understood what she meant. After briefly thinking about the current situation at home, she agreed to Su Xiaomu.

"Okay, later you can go to the city as you wish and have a look. Mom doesn't have anything else to say to you. You just have to pay attention to your own safety. If you encounter a situation like the last time again, you must do it as soon as possible.

Go and report to the official."

She glanced at Mrs. Yin who was washing clothes in the yard, and then at Mrs. Chen who was sitting under the tree embroidering a handkerchief.

"Your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law are both free today, so you have to go alone."

It is absolutely impossible for Mr. Li to follow her into the city.

Not to mention the long way into the city, she is too old to bear it.

Just talk about the profitable business that she doesn't understand, so she won't inconvenience Su Xiaomu.

Anyway, she has seen over the past few days that this daughter-in-law is a sensible person, and she is not worried that she will run away quietly when she goes into the city alone.

"Don't worry, I'm an adult too, and I know what I need to pay attention to."

Su Xiaomu agreed, and she now realized that Mrs. Li was trusting her more and more now. As long as things were not too outrageous, Mrs. Li would not refuse.

Moreover, with Gu Jingcheng's Shangfang Sword, it would be easier for Li to speak.

After talking to Mrs. Li, Su Xiaomu started packing again and planned to go into the city.

She wasn't going to sell pancakes this time, so there were only a few bottles of chili sauce in the basket.

But as soon as she changed her clothes and walked out, Mrs. Li suddenly stopped her.

"Xiaomu, please wait."

Mrs. Li hurriedly walked out of the house. She walked in a hurry, and when she came to Su Xiaomu, she said, "Mom, there is something else I want to tell you."

"Here is some money. Take it with you. You are going to the city after all. It would be inappropriate not to carry some money with you."

Mrs. Li handed her a purse, and Su Xiaomu didn't count it. After saying it, she thanked her and said, "Thank you, mother."

"Are Third Aunt going to the city?"

The twins were playing in the yard. When they saw Mrs. Li giving Su Xiaomu money, they came to her curiously. Their four little hands pulled her sleeves pitifully and said, "The cakes last time were delicious. Third uncle is coming back."

, is Third Aunt going to buy food?"

"Little greedy cat."

Su Xiaomu smiled and bent down to scratch Gu Ruochen's nose. She pinched his cheek and said, "Besides cakes, what do you want to eat?"

"Want some candy."

Gu Ruochuan silently raised his little paw, and his face turned red with embarrassment: "Last time when uncle came back, he bought us candies."

"Children, don't be so greedy all the time."

Mrs. Li pulled the twins behind her and didn't let them talk to Su Xiaomu about what to buy.

However, Su Xiaomu always liked twins. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mom, I didn't spend much of the money you gave me before. Besides, I just bought some food. My husband also wants to eat, so how much more can I spend."

She bent down and touched Gu Ruochuan's little head, and whispered, "When the third aunt comes back, I will buy them all for you."

She went into the city alone and did not take the mountain road.

I spent two copper coins on a bullock cart and arrived at the city gate half an hour earlier than usual.

After asking the coachman what time he would be returning, Su Xiaomu first went to a nearby restaurant to sell her chili sauce.

It wasn't just someone she found casually. She had paid attention to it when she was selling cakes before. Although the restaurant she was interested in was not the one with the highest flow of people, its daily business was very stable.

Of course, the most important thing is that she heard from the vendors in the market that the shopkeepers of this restaurant are very good and they never lower the price when doing business with retail investors like them.

"Sir, please come in. What would you like to eat today?"

The waiter in the restaurant is also very smart and has no intention of watching people order dishes. Even though Su Xiaomu is only wearing simple linen clothes, he still has an enthusiastic face.

"I want to talk to your shopkeeper. I have a business here that I want to do with him."

Su Xiaomu always smiles when she meets everyone. She looks gentle and well-behaved, and others seem to find her friendly and easy to get along with.

"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll call the shopkeeper for you."

The waiter did not treat her lightly because she was not here to eat, but treated her with enthusiasm.

"Thank you then."

Su Xiaomu thanked him.

"I wonder what the guests are doing here looking for me?"

The shopkeeper stayed in the accounting room upstairs to settle accounts. The business of the restaurant in the past two days was not as good as before.

Guests always say that their food is not as delicious as before, and they have always eaten the same food, nothing new.

He was worried that the foundation of a restaurant was not only selling wine but also selling food, and the latter was no less important than the former.

If the food in their restaurant is criticized by others, then his business will not last long.

"There was a customer who wanted to do business with the shopkeeper. Didn't the shopkeeper say that as long as he is a guest, he will accept all comers no matter what they are doing?"

The waiter scratched his head in confusion: "I saw she was carrying a basket in her hand, maybe she came to sell wild goods to us."

"Okay, then go and see if he and I have any business to discuss."

The shopkeeper is having a headache just now, so he can take this opportunity to go out and get some fresh air.

But the shopkeeper didn't expect that the things that the girl who wanted to do business with him would be so... novel?

He picked up the clay pot in the basket, pulled out the stopper and smelled the contents.

An unknown smell suddenly spread out, which made his nose itchy. He couldn't help but want to sneeze, but at this time, drool kept coming out of his mouth.

This is strange, a food I have never seen before can be so greedy?

The shopkeeper immediately became interested.

"How do you want to sell this thing, girl?"

He used his chopsticks to scoop out some sauce from the clay pot and put it on the white plate next to him. It looked like something made from chopped red fruits and then pickled.

"A clay pot weighs about a kilogram and a half, and a clay pot costs a hundred cents. What does the shopkeeper think?"

Su Xiaomu saw that he was interested in the chili sauce, so he directly stated the price in his heart: "If this deal can be completed, you can tell me the number, and you can give some to the shopkeeper in two days."

“Is there no room for price reduction?”

The shopkeeper frowned slightly.

Based on his intuition, this sauce might be an opportunity to revive the restaurant's business.
