Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 10955

"Really? Let me try it!"

Yang Huaming reached out and wanted to nibble on this piece, but Yang Huazhong stopped him, "It's inconvenient for you to hold something in your hand, so I'll break it for you."

"Crack!"

With a crisp sound, Yang Huazhong broke off a section of sugar cane as long as a child's arm and handed it to Yang Huaming.

Yang Huaming also took advantage of the situation and put the gift in his hand on the carriage. He tilted his mouth and began to use his sharp teeth to tear off the hard outer skin of the sugar cane.

It was a battle of strength and resilience, and Yang Huaming's teeth won.

"Fourth uncle, your teeth are really good. You have to stand aside when a lion or tiger comes!" Yang Ruoqing also came over, carrying a basket in both hands.

The basket on the left contains tangerines, and the basket on the right contains apples, pears and bananas.

The prices of the first three fruits are ordinary and ordinary people can afford them, but bananas are very expensive fruits.

Because bananas are difficult to store, there were no refrigerators in this era, and transportation conditions were not as good as in later generations, so fruit sellers on the street tried not to buy bananas.

Because it is winter now, the fruit spoils much slower, so a vendor tried to bring in some bananas, but the quantity was limited.

Therefore, the price of bananas has been very high, several times more expensive than pork, and the price is almost the same as the high-quality durians of later generations...

Yang Ruoqing, on the other hand, directly bought four bananas from the fruit seller's previous stock. Then the merchant was afraid that this big customer would not have anything to put the fruits, so he gave her two bamboo baskets to carry back...

"Oh my god, Qing'er, this is such a big deal. Are these all bought for the children to eat?" Yang Huaming stared at the four hanging bananas in the basket, his eyes getting wider and wider.

Yang Ruoqing said: "I will give one to Dabai Zhuangzhuang later."

Although Mrs. Sun only ate one pan-fried bun with beef vermicelli today, the rest went into Mrs. Liu’s stomach.

However, in the morning, Dabai sent these new breakfast products specifically for Sun.

Although Yang Ruoqing still can't recognize Dabai's character, especially in the previous years...

But talking about the matter, Yang Ruoqing will not take advantage of him in vain for his behavior this morning. You give us pan-fried buns and other breakfasts, and we give you snacks, pastries and various fruits. Hello, me, everyone, everyone is happy.

The carriage passed by the entrance of Baimeizhai. It was after noon. Although Baimeizhai also provided lunch dishes during the day, the business was obviously not as good as in the morning.

There were a few customers sitting behind a few tables in the lobby, ordering food and eating slowly.

A clerk stood in the corner ready to be dispatched.

Behind the counter, Hongmei stood there with her head buried in her head as she calculated her accounts, gently fiddling with the abacus at hand from time to time.

When Yang Ruoqing and the others came in, the first thing they noticed was the guy in the corner.

"Guest officers, please come in. How many are there?"

Not all tables in the lobby are the same size. Small tables can seat two people facing each other, and large tables can seat twelve people.

The guy came up to us and asked about the number of people, hoping to arrange the table according to the number of people.

This was the first time Yang Ruoqing walked into Baimeizhai in the past year and a half. When she saw the tables and chairs in the lobby, she was once again impressed by Dabai.

This kind of setting is very common in many hotels and restaurants in later generations, but that is the result of later generations. In these ancient times, especially in small towns like this, everyone lived a leisurely life. Except for a few big families in the town, most of the others were ordinary people who struggled with food and clothing every day. A family could go to a restaurant every ten and a half days. All good!

Although there is competition among wine shops and restaurants, it is not as fierce.

Even Yang Ruoqing's Tianxiang Tower did not adopt the table and chair design of later generations.

But Dabai thought of this level, which shows that Dabai's head is indeed talented in business.

"This is a relative of the owner. I will receive you while you continue to entertain other customers."

Before Yang Ruoqing and the others responded to the waiter, Hongmei had already come over from behind the counter. She dismissed the waiter first, and then greeted everyone one by one with a smile, using all the proper honorifics.

"Uncle, aunt, please sit here for a moment. Dabai is sleeping upstairs with the two children. I'll go and get him down."

"Ah? There are still guests eating at this hour. Why did he go to sleep?"

After Yang Huaming sat down, he took a sip of the barley tea poured by Hongmei, grabbed two melon seeds and ate them, and asked in surprise.

Hongmei explained: "He gets up every night to make noodles and prepare various semi-finished ingredients for breakfast. He opens at dawn and is busy until noon, when he can take a breather."

"So every day after lunch, I would let him go upstairs and relax for a while, and I would greet the guests downstairs."

Closed to the constant flow of business in the morning, the business at noon was much lighter.

Normally, it would be considered good if you could entertain four or five waves of customers at lunch every day. Sometimes no one would show up for lunch at all. The main income of a shop depends on the rush of business in the morning.

So whenever she was free, Hongmei sent Dabai upstairs to sleep for a while to replenish her experience. She slept well during the day and kneaded dough at night so that she would not feel sleepy.

Everyone was deeply touched when they heard Hongmei's words.

Sun murmured: "It's really hard for Dabai. Working day and night, it's only because of his young body that he can bear it."

Yang Huazhong also nodded repeatedly: "If it were old bones like us, we would definitely not be able to handle it."

Seeing that Hongmei had finished saying all this and was about to go upstairs to call Dabai down, Yang Ruoqing pushed a basket filled with several kinds of fruits in front of her.

"I brought some fruit to the children, please accept it!"

Hongmei glanced at the bananas in the basket...

"Cousin, this is too expensive. We don't want it. You can take it back and feed it to the children at home..."

"The children at home also bought it. This is specially for Zhuangzhuang and them."

As for why they were added, I'm sorry, Yang Ruoqing only remembers Zhuang Zhuang's name.

That's because Zhuang Zhuang has been living with Yang Huamei in Changping Village, and Yang Huamei always talks about Zhuang Zhuang's name no matter what. In addition, Zhuang Zhuang is a child born deaf and mute, so he is like a special child. , Yang Ruoqing couldn't even remember his name.

Hongmei looked at the fruits in the basket with a complicated expression. She had taken Zhuang Zhuang to the Wa Market to buy fruits to eat, but Zhuang Zhuang pointed at the bananas and refused to leave.

She asked about the price, and the price immediately persuaded her to leave.

When I came back and talked about it with Dabai, Dabai was not happy at the time. He scolded her that no matter how expensive it was, the children would point out that she would buy one or two sticks to satisfy their craving and give them a taste.

Later that day, Dabai took the money and went to Wa Market, but he couldn't find anyone selling bananas, so he could only buy some other things to comfort his children.
