Chapter 39 Selling Dumplings



Chapter 39 Selling Dumplings

The sunshine in the early morning was very bright, very different from the rainy day when she first came here.

The steaming heat and curling smoke on the streets were the epitome of human life in Xia Yining's eyes.

He stretched comfortably, his little face full of hope, and said in a baby voice: "Boss, you can ask someone if we need to rent a stall here. If we don't charge, we can just set up a stall anywhere."

Boss He nodded, thinking that although his younger sister was young, she had a very useful brain and was even smarter than his younger brother.

He looked around the street and asked other stall owners, and they all said that the person in charge didn't come today. This made him not know what to do.

When the He family's old couple heard what they had inquired about, they were both panicked. Fortunately, Xia Yining stayed calm and directed them to the edge, which was equivalent to the turning point. She thought that this way they would not have to pay.

Old Man He put the clay stove on the ground and lit a match. Old Man He took the pot to find water, and Old Woman He went to the grocery store to buy a few bowls.

Everything was ready, but the water was boiling and no one came yet. Mrs. He felt anxious and nervous.

Xia Yining patted her back and said coquettishly, "Mom~~~ Ning'er is so hungry. I haven't had breakfast yet."

With just one sentence, she was completely controlled. She no longer remembered that the dumplings could not be sold. She only wanted to cook them quickly so as not to let her little girl starve.

Old man He and his son were not much better off. They were very nervous as it was their first time doing business. But when they saw his wife calm down, they both slowly calmed down as well.

There were ten dumplings in a bowl, cooked with white flour. They looked plump and cute in the bowl. People passing by were very curious and couldn't help but take a second look.

Then I heard a very nice little girl's voice, clear and pleasant, shouting: "Selling dumplings, delicious and beautiful dumplings, full of meat filling, one bite filled with fragrance."

"The first dozen or so people who come in can try one for free. If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay."

This kind of sound is not heard on ordinary days. People who come out for breakfast feel it is strange, both for the little girl with a strange voice and for the unknown dumplings.

Then an old man with a gray beard and silk clothes came over, smiling and fanning himself, and said jokingly, "If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay for it? Don't cry later."

Xia Yining was not angry even though she was teased. She smiled with her eyes narrowed, and the dimples at the corners of her lips were faintly visible, which made him stunned.

"Grandpa, Ning'er is a man of his word. The first ten can be tasted for free. You don't have to buy them."

The old man looked at her for a moment longer, then said, "Okay, okay, let's give the little girl some face today and try these dumplings to see if they're delicious."

Because this man was known to be picky, many curious people gathered around him when they saw him standing still.

The waiter first brought a bowl, picked up a dumpling and handed it to him. The old man with white beard took a light bite and felt the gravy spreading in his mouth.

After tasting it carefully, he was surprised by the good combination of flour and fillings. He praised them generously: "These dumplings are really delicious, salty and fragrant, making people linger."

Not bad, not bad. The little girl told the truth and didn’t lie.

How much are these dumplings? How much is a bowl? Give me two bowls, both with white flour.

On the way, He Pozi and others had already agreed that a bowl of white flour dumplings would cost thirty cents for fifteen pieces, and a bowl of coarse grain dumplings would cost twenty cents for fifteen pieces.

When many people heard that it was so expensive, they didn't dare to come forward.

Fortunately, the old man is not short of money. He has tried all the food on this street and will definitely try anything new he encounters.

Xia Yining said in a soft voice: "Okay, you are the first guest, I will give you an extra multi-grain dumpling for each bowl, please try it."

From the shouting just now to the selling of dumplings now, Mrs. He and the other two were stunned until they felt the small hand pushing them, and then they reacted.

"Please wait a moment, sir. It will be ready soon~!!"

Old man He was boiling water, old woman He was making dumplings, and Xia Yining was collecting money beside them, her little mouth still sweet.

Today is my first time setting up a stall. I didn’t bring any tables, chairs or benches. The old man and the little brother had to eat while standing. I won’t do that tomorrow.

The dumplings rolled in the pot, and after adding water three times, the fragrance became more and more intense, and the people who had been waiting near the stall couldn't help but eat them.

"White flour is expensive, it's okay to try dumplings made from whole grains."

"If one person moves, the rest will move."

At this time, the first pot of white flour dumplings came out of the pot. The old man with white beard couldn't wait to take it and put it in his mouth. The freshly-cooked dumplings tasted better~!!

The servant urged, "Eat quickly. When have I ever been stingy with you? These dumplings are really good."

After eating two more, he thought of his family and said to Mrs. He, "The remaining dumplings are all wrapped up. Please cook them for my wife at home."

It was surprising, and he asked, "Is it really so delicious, Mr. Gao? I want to take it home."

The old man with a white beard hurriedly ate a dumpling and nodded, "Delicious, delicious, extremely delicious, and the price is not expensive at all."

Everyone: "!!"

If Mr. Gao says the food is delicious, then it is truly delicious, and people keep flocking to the stall.

Mrs. He was anxious. They only wanted to sell it, but didn't expect to package it and send it away. They wanted to make money from it, and looked at Mr. Gao, who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Xia Yining: “…”

Mom, I feel embarrassed to continue eating dumplings because you are staring at Master Gao.

"(all)"

At critical moments, she still has to take action, and she is worried to death at such a young age.

In a baby voice, he said, "Grandpa Gao, I was in a hurry to go out today and didn't bring anything to pack. Please see..."

Mrs. He nodded frantically, with a hint of urgency in her eyes.

Then I heard Master Gao laugh cheerfully and say, "I thought something had happened because my sister-in-law was staring at me, but it turned out to be something that was not packed."

He looked at this simple stall and thought it was normal.

He said in a very cheerful tone: "This is a small matter. When Gao Mou eats, he always thinks of bringing some for his wife at home. There are food boxes on the carriage, and this sister-in-law just needs to cook."

After hearing this, Mrs. He breathed a sigh of relief. While cooking multi-grain dumplings for other customers, she smiled and replied, "Thank you, Mr. Gao. Please take your time eating. I will cook the dumplings while you are eating. They will taste better then."

Only Xia Yining stared at Master Gao with sparkling eyes, showing a sweet smile and said: "Master Gao is so nice, just like Ning'er's father and elder brother, he is a person who truly loves his wife."

The way he shook his head was very cute, and he continued: "As the old saying goes, men who love their wives will become rich~!"

In the future, Ning'er's family will definitely be as rich as Master Gao~!!

The children's mumbling was so adorable to everyone that they couldn't help but burst into laughter. Some of the brave ones even teased the He father and son with their eyes.
