Li Qingling didn't expect the business to be so good. She and Liu Zhimo had just set up a stall, and the customers who didn't eat yesterday saw them coming, so they came over to buy egg pancakes.
"Uncle, please wait a moment, I'll fry it for you." Li Qingling saw a customer coming, she speeded up the stall, set up the stall, and quickly fried egg pancakes for the customer.
Because it is a semi-finished product, the frying speed is also very fast.
Li Qingling put the eggs in a small basket and handed them to the guests with both hands, "Uncle, five cents, thank you!" Fortunately, the semi-finished products were made at home. If there were no semi-finished products, the guests would have to wait for a long time.
The guest took it over, looked at the delicate little basket, and laughed, "It looks very interesting." He took out five Wen and handed it to Li Qingling, and without going far, he stood by the side, carefully holding the egg Cake, eat it.
It was the first time he had eaten this kind of omelette, and it tasted very good. After he finished eating, he nodded with satisfaction, and asked Li Qingling to fry another five omelets.
Liu Zhimo saw that Li Qingling was sweating on her face, so he gently wiped the sweat off her face, and asked her to rest next to him while he fried omelets.
Li Qingling nodded, and gave up the position to Liu Zhimo.
The guest looked at it, and his eyes flickered. He smiled and chatted with Li Qingling, "Little girl, where is your adult?" I don't know what kind of parents they are, but they have a big heart to let two children out to set up a stall. of.
Li Qingling is not a real child, of course she would not tell the truth to outsiders, she sighed and said: "My father and mother are sick, and my brother and I set up a stall to make money for the treatment of my parents." Thinking a few times in her heart Amitabha, forgive her white lies.
She also couldn't tell about her relationship with Liu Zhimo, if outsiders knew about it, they would point them out.
The guest was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo, feeling a little pity in his heart.
He smiled and changed the subject, "This egg pancake is not bad, it's the first time I've tasted this new thing." The usual egg pancakes are just mixed with eggs and flour, and spread out into sheets, not like this Yes, with an egg directly sandwiched in the middle, it also keeps the tenderness of the egg, and with some cabbage, it is delicious and not greasy.
The master's appetite has not been very good these days, take it back for the master to taste, and see if he likes it
Li Qingling smiled and scratched her head, "A secret recipe at home." Seeing that Liu Zhimo had fried the egg pancakes, she helped put them in a basket and handed them to the guests, "Uncle, if you like it, come buy it next time, let's share it." Put it here every day." He is well dressed and his family is not too bad, if he comes to buy it every day, it will be a good income.
The guest gave Li Qingling a smile and didn't say whether he would come or not. He gave Li Qingling twenty-five Wen and left with a small basket.
Li Qingling didn't care, and turned to greet other guests.
This morning's business was also good, and it was busy until noon, when there was no one left, Li Qingling let out a sigh of relief and asked Liu Zhimo to look at the stall while she went to buy something to eat.
Before Liu Zhimo could make a sound, she ran away in a flash.
Not long after, she came back with two bowls of mung bean syrup and handed Liu Zhimo a bowl, "One bowl of syrup and two egg pancakes are enough." She paused, "Brother Zhimo, what do you want to eat?" If you want, I'll go buy it." She forgot to ask Liu Zhimo, and patted her forehead in frustration.
Liu Zhimo asked her to sit down, shook his head with a smile and said, "No need, just eat these." He is not picky about food, and besides, save as much as you can, and don't spend money randomly.
Li Qingling chuckled, he gave Liu Zhimo an egg pancake, and took another one for himself, and slowly ate it with mung bean syrup.
"Little girl, how do you make this egg pancake? It smells delicious?" The lady who sold the straw sandals at the stall next door glanced at her and asked.
Looking up at the aunt, Li Qingling rolled her eyes, took an egg pancake and handed it to the aunt, "It's made of eggs, aunt, please try it." She and Liu Zhimo set up a stall here, The business is not bad, and it will definitely make other small vendors jealous. Then she will get along with the people at the next-door stall. Maybe they can help if there is something wrong.
The aunt looked at the egg pancake in Li Qingling's hand, and smelling the aroma, she swallowed hard. She wanted to eat it very much, but she shook her head when she thought that one would cost five cents.
An egg pancake cost five cents, and she had to sell five pairs of straw sandals to earn it back. It was so expensive that she couldn't afford it.
Li Qingling stuffed the omelette into the aunt's hand, "You don't need to pay, I'll treat you to eat." She said with a smile on her face: "It's also a kind of fate to meet my aunt here."
As soon as she heard that it was free of money, the aunt stopped being polite to Li Qingling. She laughed and said a few words to Li Qingling, and she couldn't wait to eat.
The lady at the stall here gave someone an egg cake, and the uncle on the other side couldn't ignore it.
Liu Zhimo also smiled and gave the uncle one, offering him to eat for free.
As the old saying goes, people are soft-handed and short-mouthed when eating people. After eating Li Qingling's egg pancakes, the aunt got closer to Li Qingling a lot and told Li Qingling a lot about things on the street.
Li Qingling also knew from her aunt that her surname is Zhang and her husband's surname is Jia. She is from Shanghe Village. There are three children in her family. In order to subsidize the family, she comes to the town every day to set up a stall to sell straw sandals.
"Hey... In this world, it's not easy to earn money! Especially if you don't have any skills, you can only earn some hard money."
Li Qingling nodded in agreement, followed by a big sigh, with a sad expression on his face, "Who says it's not? The money my brother and I earn from setting up a stall here is not enough to treat our parents. It's best to be free from disaster and pain, hey..." That tone, that expression, really sounded like that.
Liu Zhimo lowered his head, holding back the smile on his lips, afraid that others would see it, so he picked up the mung bean syrup and drank it slowly.
In the eyes of others, they thought that Liu Zhimo was also sad after hearing Li Qingling's words.
Aunt Zhang patted Li Qingling's hand sympathetically, and comforted Li Qingling.
In this world, one can't afford to be sick. If one person in the family is sick, the family's wealth will be wiped out, let alone two people get sick together. Hey... It's no wonder that these two children have to work so hard to earn money.
Li Qingling finished drinking her mung bean syrup, wiped the corners of her mouth casually, and said to the aunt with a smile: "It's okay, my brother and I will work hard to earn money to treat our parents, and we must cure them no matter what." .” Once she uttered this white lie, once she got used to it, she slid without pause.
Aunt Zhang, who didn't know it, praised Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo for their filial piety when she heard her words.
Li Qingling smiled at Aunt Zhang, changed the subject without a trace, and stopped talking about her parents.
You know, a lie needs to be covered by another lie, and if she continues, she doesn't know how many lies to cover up.
It's safer to change the subject.
Li Qingling chatted a lot with Aunt Zhang's boss, Li Jia, and didn't end the chat until a guest came.
Liu Zhimo glanced at Li Qingling with a half-smile, he didn't know that she had the ability to tell lies as if they were true.
Looking up at Liu Zhimo, Li Qingling blushed a little, she felt a little embarrassed for telling so many lies in front of him.
In fact, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Qingling lying? He would be worried if she foolishly told others the truth!
He smiled and patted Li Qingling's head lightly, and Liu Zhimo asked the guest gently, how many egg pancakes do you want
"Is this called an omelet? How is it different from what I usually eat? Is it delicious? How much is it?" A woman held a child by her hand. Come and ask.
"This is an omelette made from my family's secret recipe. It's different from the usual ones. It's delicious." Liu Zhimo said with a smile, "It's such a big one, and it only costs five cents."
Listening to Li Qingling answering guests like this, the more he listens, the more he can fool people like this.
Liu Zhimo couldn't help but laugh. It really is true that if you are close to vermilion, you will be red, and if you are close to ink, you will be black. She led him to death.
The woman's eyes widened when she heard that one penny, "An egg pancake costs five pennies, why don't you grab it?" Five pennies can buy two meat buns and one vegetable bun, and you can still eat it. Full, "Let's go, mother will buy meat buns for you to eat." After finishing speaking, she took the child and was about to leave.
But the child refused, and started crying. He must eat egg pancakes, saying that whoever has eaten egg pancakes is delicious, and he wants to eat it too.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Qingling gently cut open an egg pancake, cut the egg pancake into several small pieces, and handed a piece to the woman and child for them to taste.
"Auntie, the omelette made from my ancestral secret recipe has been developed with a lot of effort, and it is definitely worth five cents."
The woman tasted the omelette and thought it was really good. Seeing that the child was crying again, she nodded helplessly and asked Li Qingling to make one for her.
"Okay, wait a minute." Li Qingling replied crisply, raised an eyebrow at Liu Zhimo, Liu Zhimo smiled, and quickly fried an egg pancake, Li Qingling put the egg pancake into the basket, He also generously gave two small pieces to the woman.
It is human psychology to love to take advantage, and the woman saw that there was still something to give away. She smiled so hard that she handed Li Qingling five cents, and walked away happily with the child.
"Have a business mind." Liu Zhimo watched Li Qingling put the money away, and he praised her with a smile.
Li Qingling nodded without any shyness, "Of course." Did she know if she made a move
Liu Zhimo shook his head with a broken smile, turned around and went back to work.
They brought fifty omelets, and they were sold out in a short time. They were just about to pack up and go home when the uncle who had bought omelets in the morning came in a hurry.
