In the morning, the Wang brothers followed Wen Yu's instructions and came to their house after there was smoke from the chimney.
At this time, Wen Wen was making breakfast, including preserved egg and lean meat porridge, steamed Erhe noodle buns, salted duck eggs and small pickles. The portion was also quite sufficient, so the breakfast was quite good.
The Wang brothers wanted to step forward to help, but the Wen family already had enough people, so they could only watch anxiously from the sidelines.
Wen Yu looked at it and said: "Originally I wanted to call you over after breakfast, but I was still afraid that you would come over too early. Our family has breakfast at this time every day, so you can just come over at the same time.
It doesn't matter if it's later. The two houses are so close that you can hear us shouting. It'll be the same if we come over then, which will save you the fact that breakfast hasn't been prepared yet and you still have to wait."
Wang Zhenglai said: "Originally, we were embarrassed that you were providing meals. Otherwise, let us two brothers do the work of chopping firewood in the morning."
This was really not Wen Yu's modesty. He said: "Brother, that's not really the case, but this job is quite tiring. Anyway, let's get used to it for a few days before we talk."
Wang Zhenglai and Wang Xinglai didn't know what they were going to do. After Wen Hou said this, they naturally didn't refute it. If it was really a waste of physical energy and they didn't have enough physical strength to do the job well, it would be more than worth the gain.
Breakfast was ready in a short while. It was actually because the breakfast was so delicious. Not only the Wang brothers, but also the Wen family also cooked two bowls. Of course, they also cooked so much, otherwise it would not be enough for a group of people.
of.
For the time being, Wen Yu and Wen Xin will be the candidates to set up the stall for the first time after the New Year, but this time the driver is changed from Wen Jin to Jing Chen.
After opening the new year, Jingchen once again thought about building a house. He originally wanted to build it years ago, but it rained heavily the year before. The ground is almost dry now. In a few months,
It was possible to build a new house, but the Wen family did not allow it, because privately Wen Yu had already recognized Jing Chen as his teacher. This private meaning meant that only the Wen and Jing families knew about it, but not the people in the village.
This request was made by Jingchen himself, and the Wen family didn't understand it at first, but everyone has their own secrets, and Jingchen didn't want to tell them, so naturally they wouldn't force it, and naturally they wouldn't say anything to the outside world.
Therefore, Jingchen was Wen Xin's savior and Wen Yu's teacher, so he naturally stayed there.
Now that they are all living in the Wen family, Jingchen naturally hopes to get along better with the Wen family, so when they want to set up a stall again, they propose such a task. It is a bit heavier, but not so tiring, and the Wen family will agree to it.
Work, and then became the Wen family's coachman.
Of course, little Jingbo must follow Jingchen. After all, the child cannot live without his father, so it is actually the four of them going to the market.
After Wenxin and the other four left, Wenhou and his party also started to get busy. The glutinous rice in the kitchen had been steamed during breakfast. After resting for a while, they started frying the soybeans. After the soybeans were fried, the glutinous rice was cooked.
The sides have also been steamed, and the next step is to make the glutinous rice cakes.
Their big pot can steam up to 10 kilograms at a time. Because they need to fry soybeans, they only steamed 10 kilograms. The 10 kilograms of glutinous rice was poured into the stone mortar. Wen Hou and Wen Jin gave a demonstration first, and then the Wang brothers took over.
I got busy after passing the time.
At this time, the Wen brothers were not idle. They first took a look at the 20 kilograms of glutinous rice that had been soaked in advance for use in the afternoon. After confirming that it was nothing, they washed the 20 kilograms of rice and put it aside to soak, and then put it aside.
The soybeans and sugar that were fried in the morning were ground into powder. Although a small stone mortar was used, the force required was no less than that of the glutinous rice cake. After an hour and a half, the glutinous rice cake was ready.
At this time, both the Wang family and the Wen family were sweating, but for the Wang family, this work was not particularly tiring.
Wang Zhenglai said: "I'm okay, I feel fine."
Wang Xinglai also said: "I am a little tired, but not particularly tired."
The Wang brothers are several years older than the Wen family, so it is reasonable for them to have better physical strength. In addition, the brothers have also worked as coolies, so it is normal for them to feel okay now.
The two Wen brothers on the side were obviously tired and sweating. They had finished the work at hand, so they naturally wanted to take a good rest.
It was still early at this time, so Wenhou first made some glutinous rice cakes, fried them in oil for 10 times, sprinkled some soybean flour, handed the bowl to the Wang brothers, and said: "This glutinous rice is still good, soak it for another hour."
, you guys can come back in an hour, take this fried glutinous rice cake back to eat, and take a rest on the way, we can take a rest too."
The Wang brothers didn't expect such a good thing. They were given money and food for the work. They hurriedly said: "We are not tired. Besides, we are here to work. You have already paid for your meal. How can we still get your food?"
Eat."
"Take it, don't be polite, it's better to fry it than to eat it directly. You can take it back and taste it. It's really okay now. We just opened the stall, so we don't know the specific amount.
Maybe I'll be busy after that, Brother Wang, Brother Wang, you don't have to feel embarrassed."
The two of them thought about it. This was just the first day of setting up the stall. It would be better if they worked harder in the future. "Then we brothers are welcome. We will be here in an hour."
"Um."
Wen Hou also breathed a sigh of relief after seeing off the Wang brothers.
Wen Houyuan was not such a tactful person. He also knew that on the first day of work, he would give Kong some food to try to win over him. But wasn’t it because of Wen Yu’s teachings? Wen Yu had made these words in advance, and Wen Hou had a good example.
Nothing went wrong.
Unlike the situation at home, the glutinous rice cakes at the market are selling like crazy.
Wen Yu and Wen Wen were originally the living signs in the market. Whenever you see these two faces, no matter what you eat, it will definitely be delicious. Not only that, because the food is just that, and I have never seen any new food before. Everyone looks at it.
Naturally, you will want to taste it.
But what is different from before is that those people who had never tasted it before were afraid to try it easily, but it is different now. As long as they see these two faces coming over, they will definitely come and line up to buy it and try it.
Whether it's sweet or salty, there's nothing bad about it.
Because today is the first day of setting up the stall, they did not bring stoves and pots, so they only sell soybean flour glutinous rice cakes. Soybean flour costs 1 penny for 2 pieces, and for 10 penny a bowl, you get 2 pieces for free. These two are just a penny, so warm and cozy
Because of everyone's desire to take advantage of small things, they were happy to sell bowls one after another, and they were merciless in collecting money.
They brought out a total of 30 kilograms of glutinous rice cakes, and they sold them all in two hours. Wen Wen was very tired, but when she sat on the stove and counted the money, her face started to bloom again.
