Ji Huai finished cooking the bowl of soy sauce chicken vermicelli, packed it up, collected the money, and came to sit next to Cheng Yunyu.
"Eat." She pushed the fan in front of her towards him.
"You haven't had a few bites at all." Ji Huai looked at the bowl full of fans and frowned.
"I can't eat any more. I've already finished the egg drop soup." She ate the last sushi in the second box of sushi and said vaguely, "I still have skewers."
"Give me the chopsticks." Ji Huai stretched out his hand, preparing to use the chopsticks she used to eat sushi.
"Here." She didn't use them anymore. After giving him the chopsticks, she also gave him the spoon from the egg drop soup to avoid tearing another one. "I'm going to buy a bowl tomorrow. I always use disposable chopsticks." good."
"Yeah." Ji Huai had been busy for a long time and was hungry. He didn't mind that it was something she had used. One hand is holding a spoon, and the other hand is picking up the vermicelli, putting it into the spoon, and reaching towards her, "Take another bite?"
"I'm full." She leaned back, still holding her small paper bucket in her hand, and holding the skewers in her other hand, preparing to eat.
Ji Huai laughed and scolded: "While saying I'm full, I stuffed skewers into my mouth."
"My stomach is full after eating vermicelli, but I still have some left after eating skewers." She looked at him with eyes as clear and bright as autumn water and said seriously.
"You have a poor mouth." He also wanted to preach, "Eat less snacks."
"Your tone is just like that mother teaching her son just after school." Cheng Yunyu suppressed a laugh, recalling the scene at that time.
Ji Huai paused for a moment and had a picture in his mind.
At that time, the little boy was going to buy fried chicken burgers. His mother suddenly turned black and cursed in a calm voice: "Eat, eat, eat, you know you will eat this junk food when you get home! Don't buy it! Don't go back until you get in the car." . ”
The other party's voice was loud, and everyone around looked at it.
"Am I so fierce?" Ji Huai raised his eyebrows and looked up at her.
"Yeah!" She nodded vigorously and ate the skewers, "You must also want to say the same. No snacks! No skipping meals! Children who don't eat well will eat these junk foods."
"Child?" The smile on Ji Huai's lips suddenly deepened, and he rolled these three words between his lips and teeth, and then spoke slowly.
Cheng Yunyu continued: "You are a child, only one year older than me."
"Cheng is three years old." He said with the corner of his mouth raised.
"Don't listen, don't listen, you are Ji Yisui." She refused to admit defeat and quickly retorted.
Ji Huai was not annoyed, nor did he argue with her. His dark eyes were full of smiles as he slowly drank his pink soup.
While he was eating the noodle soup, she got up and cleaned up the countertop, then came over and sat down to play with him. The two chatted and occasionally bickered.
They and the Oden couple were the only ones left at the stall. The couple often quarreled. As long as they were not selling things, you would hear Chen Juan complaining about Liang Dong, or the two of them scolding each other.
One has a sharp and sarcastic tone, and the other is angry and swearing constantly. It can be seen that the relationship is not very good.
Cheng Yunyu saw that they had been quarreling several times in the past few days, and couldn't help but ask Ji Huai in a low voice: "We have been married for a long time, are we always like this? We are impatient to listen to each other."
"Both of them talk a little bit, so it's normal for them to quarrel. Husband and wife should also communicate well." Ji Huai looked at the clock and saw that it was already 8:55. He was going to cook vermicelli, but the little boy just asked him to advance. It's cooked and will be picked up later.
He filled the soup and put it on the stove to cook. Cheng Yunyu put on a mask and Pidianpidian came to him again. Without asking any more questions, she reached out to hold his arm and looked at the school gate, "I don't know. How much can we sell? It would be great if we could sell more, there is still a lot of soup in the pot."
Ji Huai didn't break away his hand and let her hold him. He used his other hand to put kelp and green vegetables into the small pot. "It should be fine at night. It's better to sell at nine o'clock. It's better to sell today than yesterday. It's better than yesterday." Better than expected.”
The soup in the small pot continued to boil. As soon as it was finished, the school bell rang. Cheng Yunyu let go of his arm and leaned over to get the packing box. He also took a small plate and put shredded radish in it, and put them together in the bag. Set aside.
Students began to leave school. Ji Huai felt that the sales were good after school in the afternoon, and he would sell another twenty or thirty copies in the evening, so that the day would not be in vain.
He never expected that this time it would be even busier than in the afternoon. The stall was packed with people in an instant. Everyone was chatting and the three stoves started cooking again.
Cooking and cooking, one pot after another, Cheng Yunyu was also busy packing and receiving money and looking for money. He kept busy until the number of students in front of the stall continued to decrease, and only three of them kept cooking on the stove.
Ji Huai cooked another bowl and poured it into the packaging box. Cheng Yunyu did not close the lid, but took it to the other side and placed it on the table. She said in an apologetic tone: "Sorry, I've been waiting for a long time."
"It's okay." The student sitting in front of the table smiled and didn't care.
Both tables were occupied, and Cheng Yunyu said to the two boys at the other table: "Now start cooking your two bowls of soy sauce chicken rice noodles. They will be ready soon."
The two nodded and continued chatting.
After cooking these two bowls, there was no one in the stall for the time being. Ji Huai took out his cell phone and was a little startled when he looked at the time on it.
He thought it was only nine-thirty. Generally speaking, the first half hour is relatively busy, selling more than ten or twenty bowls, but then it becomes so-so. Now it is actually nine-fifty.
At this time, the senior students were about to get out of school, which meant that he had been busy non-stop for fifty minutes.
"I feel like we can all sell out today." Cheng Yunyu looked at the sauced chicken and minced meat that was mostly gone, then opened the lid and looked at the soup, "Most of it is gone."
She knew the sales were good and should be no worse than yesterday, but she had no idea how much they sold, as long as they sold well. Ji Huai said that if he maintained yesterday's income, she would be able to help.
The two of them had not been chatting for a few minutes when the bell rang for the end of the third period evening self-study get out of class: "Ring, ring, ring~"
It was late, and the students who had attended three classes were also hungry. Not only were they hungry, but the parents who came to wait for the students also came here to take a look when they smelled the fragrance.
The items sold next to the school are cheap, look quite hygienic, and are packaged with great care. Not only students queue up to buy, but parents also come to buy, especially parents who have heard their children say it is delicious and are more willing to try it.
In the past, only the oden couple were setting up stalls at this time, and they could only eat hot noodles or oden. However, their food was not very good and their attitude was bad, so parents rarely bought it.
If you want to eat late-night snacks at this time, you have to go to a store to eat. The distance is quite far. If you don't have a way, you won't go there specifically. Now the noodle soup stall next to the school can meet your requirements. You have to buy one.
“A bowl of sauce chicken vermicelli.”
"Have a bowl of chicken rice noodles with soy sauce and add chili."
"Can you clear the table? We want to sit here and eat."
… .
"Okay." Cheng Yunyu quickly packed the two portions of rice noodles on hand, took the rag and walked aside. She was very skilled in packing things. She stacked the lunch boxes and quickly wiped the table, wiping it twice more.
The sales at this time in the past two days were not very good, but today they seem to be selling well. Ji Huai has no time to spare, and all three stoves are burning, all with high flames.
"A bowl of sauce chicken noodles." As soon as a student finished speaking, Ji Huai answered, "Classmate, there is no sauce chicken anymore, only non-spicy minced pork and slightly spicy minced pork."
"I want slightly spicy minced pork." The other party changed his mind.
Ji Huai: "Okay."
He cooked several more bowls, and the spoon continued to pour soup at the bottom. Soon, the soup was almost at the bottom. When the spoon was put down, it could touch the bottom of the bucket. He put the last portion of minced meat with red oil on it. In the small pot, he said to the students who were still queuing: "There is no spicy minced pork anymore, only light minced pork."
There are not many people who like to eat light food, and they like to add more or less chili pepper. He also made less, but still had some left.
After hearing this, three students stopped eating and turned around to leave. The other two were waiting and expressed their acceptance.
Ji Huai cooked two more bowls, and the soup bucket gradually reached the bottom. Cheng Yunyu stood on tiptoe to take a look, and tilted the soup bucket for him to fill it. It seemed that he could still get it together.
Two female students came over arm in arm, looked at the countertop, and asked him, "Is this the only minced meat?"
Ji Huai responded: "Yes, we can only cook two bowls of soup. If you want it, all the minced meat will be put in for you."
It looked like there were four servings of minced meat left, but the soup was gone.
One of the female students said: "We want two portions of vermicelli soup."
Ji Huai nodded, and Cheng Yunyu tilted the soup bucket again, looked inside, and said to the two of them: "The soup may be a little short, I don't know if it will be enough."
After she finished speaking, Ji Huai looked at the two of them and said proactively: "It's a little short. Can I put some more vegetables and kelp for you?"
The two nodded: "Okay."
While he was cooking, he also put in a lot of the remaining green vegetables and kelp, took the small pot with the minced meat, divided the remaining minced meat into two parts, and placed them in two small pots.
The soup in the small pot was boiling, and the fragrance spread in the air, attracting the little girl passing by. She had just stopped the donkey and was looking up at the menu above. Cheng Yunyu said apologetically: "Sorry, we have sold out today. It’s over.”
"Oh, okay." The other party smiled and drove away.
Ji Huai cooked the last two portions, packed them and handed them to the two little girls separately, and took back the two portions worth five yuan.
The soup bucket was empty, the three small pots filled with ingredients were also empty, and there was only a little food left. Ji Huai turned to look at her, Cheng Yunyu smiled brightly: "The sales are not bad, can I follow you? Are you setting up a street stall together?"
He said yesterday that it might not be easy to sell on Wednesday and the students might not have money, but if it was good for three consecutive days, she could come and join him.
Ji Huai didn't hesitate this time. He seemed to be relieved. He lowered his eyes and nodded with a smile: "It's a little easier to sell than I thought."
"That's because your cooking is delicious." She said as she was cleaning up, another student came to ask, and she repeated apologetically, "Classmate, we sold out today."
By the time they finished cleaning up, which was only 10:20, five or six students had already come to ask, and a few didn't come over when they saw them closing the stall.
In the past, the oden couple would have left at this time, but today they did not leave. Half of the hot rice noodles in their buckets were left, and there was also a lot of skewers left.
When students buy hot noodles, they will go with a few skewers. In fact, it is just enough to eat. After all, they have no choice. They make a lot of money every day and make money easily.
Chen Juan counted the money she received today over and over again. She made half less than before. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Looking at the tricycle that was about to drive away, she wanted to poke holes in the two people on the car. The bite made a clicking sound.
in the car.
Ji Huai did not drive the car forward, but turned to Cheng Yunyu and said, "Put on your coat."
"Put it on too." She took the coat she had put aside and saw that he wasn't wearing it, so she put it on him and then put it on herself.
"Going home." Ji Huai drove forward for a while, then turned around.
The oden cook couple stared at the two of them, and Chen Juan muttered: "I think they added something to it, otherwise there would be so many people buying it?"
Maybe it's harmful to health, or something unclean.
Liang Dong also agreed very much, and the two of them murmured for a while.
After eleven o'clock, more students came out of the school gate one after another. They were still very disappointed when they didn't see the white three-wheeler.
The oden couple are still there, waiting for them to go over and buy them, but after eating the noodle soup from that restaurant, they know that eating oden is not cost-effective.
The kelp in the five-yuan noodle soup costs one yuan to buy at Oden. They also have green vegetables and shredded radish, which contains more noodles than two servings at Oden. They also have meat, and the soup is delicious and well packaged. Careful and good attitude.
I thought that I was no longer interested in oden, so I just went home.
The Oden couple thought they could sell more if they waited a little longer, but by 11:30, they had only sold a few bunches in total. The students didn't buy much and went back after leaving school.
Chen Juan was very upset and had a quarrel with Liang Dong.
The other end.
After Ji Huai and Cheng Yunyu went home and packed up, they sat on the ground. He took the money bucket over and poured out all the money in it.
She looked at the money on the ground and guessed: "I think it should be about the same as yesterday."
Although it seems like a lot, yesterday there were fifty yuan, and today it was all change, five yuan being the most.
Ji Huai said truthfully: "It should be better than yesterday because I did more."
"Wouldn't that make more than a hundred yuan?" Cheng Yunyu looked like a money-lover and continued to organize.
Ji Huai took the money, folded them one by one, and put them in his hand.
"Ninety-five, one hundred and five, two hundred and six..." After Cheng Yunyu sorted it out, she counted quickly. The total money in her hand was two hundred and ninety-three.
Ji Huai also handed over the money in his hand: "I have exactly two hundred and sixty here, and I put in the change of forty yuan."
"That adds up to...five hundred and fifty-three!" She raised her voice, took a breath, grabbed the money, leaned over and put her arms around his neck, and crawled into his arms, her excitement and excitement could not be concealed, "Then We only sold about a hundred bowls? We made two hundred and fifty!"
Ten days is two thousand and five, so what if there are Saturdays and Sundays? As long as they work at the stall for twenty days, they can earn enough to work as waiters.
Ji Huai hugged her: "I'm very busy today, and the time for students to buy is so short. I guess it will be enough to sell dozens more copies, and I won't be able to cook it."
"If you add a little more, you can sell for 300 yuan three days a week, and you can earn at least 1,000 yuan a week, which is 4,000 yuan a month. That's good." She nodded in his arms, "How wonderful and free. , just sell it like this, I will buy more ingredients and prepare it tomorrow, and we will buy another table."
Ji Huai lowered his head and pecked her delicate pink lips: "We will go shopping tomorrow."
"I'll work the morning shift tomorrow too. When I get back from get off work, I'll set up a stall with you!" She looked at the money in her hand and felt full of energy.
"Um."
"I'm thinking about resigning. You're so busy and no one can help you." She felt very distressed when she thought that he had been working alone for the past two days and must have been in a hurry.
Ji Huai also put his other hand around her, holding her in his arms. He looked at her and said softly: "You should think about resigning. Besides, we can't live here anymore, it will disturb others. I found a bungalow. Tomorrow We can sell for one more day. Students have holidays on Friday and Saturday, so we can go later. Then we have to move. After moving, we will be far away from the food stalls, and it will be more troublesome to go to work."
Cheng Yunyu thought for a while and said cruelly: "I'll pick it up tomorrow. I have to work overtime on the evening shift recently. If I work overtime, you won't be able to take care of me."
He let go of his hand, put it through the hollow of her knees, stood up, carried her princess to the bed, and continued: "Yes, I am too busy, and I need a boss lady to take care of the accounts."
There was a smile all over her shiny baby face, and her laughter was extremely joyful. She also said: "What kind of boss lady are you? I want to be the boss lady of the store, a rich boss lady."
"Don't you have money in your hand? Isn't it enough?" Ji Huai asked her.
Cheng Yunyu looked at the more than five hundred yuan in his hand and hid the money in the cabinet when he put it on the bed: "It's not enough, we need more."
"Then there's nothing we can do. We can only sell so much noodle soup." Ji Huai was helpless.
"What do you mean there is no way?" She turned over, crossed her legs, sat on him, leaned forward, pressed him, and stood in front of his eyes, a little unreasonable: "I don't care, find a way! Think of it!" Method!"
Ji Huai showed a submissive smile: "Okay, I will think of a way."
He was so obedient, Cheng Yunyu laughed so hard that his shoulders shook slightly. She lay on top of him, put her hands around his neck, listened to his strong heartbeat, and rubbed her arms in his arms. After a while, she said softly :"very good already."
She didn't ask for much, and she knew he was working hard. The two of them were down to earth and everything was getting better, so she was already satisfied.
The person beneath her put his big hand on the back of her head and his thin lips on her ear: "It's just the beginning. There will be a lot of time in the future and I can make a lot of money."
He originally wanted to save enough money to open a store and sell in the store, so that he wouldn't have to work hard, but she took the lead: "Yes! Money is earned slowly. When we make money, we will buy a windshield." , so that you won’t get caught when it rains, and you also have to buy an electric car, which is too much trouble when buying ingredients.”
"A few thousand yuan is too expensive. I wonder if I can buy a second-hand one for 1,500 yuan. If I can buy it, when I quit my job and collect my salary, I will use that money to buy it. Then we will have an electric car. How convenient it is. ah?"
Although they made more than two hundred today, the total money was more than five hundred. That was all Ji Huai's money. He still had to rent a house and buy a table and ingredients tomorrow. The soup bucket was not enough, so they had to buy a soup. Buckets, money is needed everywhere.
Ji Huai hugged her into his arms again, kissed her, and said in a slower voice: "I can buy it soon."
soon.
