Rebirth and farming: the prosperous days of the eldest sister of Nongmen

Chapter 20 Lin's Work
After finally finding a way to make money, Mrs. Lin tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep, guessing that the time was coming, so she tiptoed out of bed.

"Mom, you're up too. We'll be the first to enter the city when we walk faster." Dazhu would go to work in Fucheng when he was slack, and he was used to getting up early and rushing in the dark.

"Okay, I'll wash up quickly."

At five o'clock, most people were still sleeping soundly at home, and the road was pitch black, only the rustling of the leaves could be heard in the wind.When Mrs. Lin gathered her clothes and could finally see Fucheng, Da Zhu blew out the small torch quickly, and finally arrived before the fifth watch.

As soon as the clapper sounded at the fifth watch, Da Zhu took Mrs. Lin straight to Ye Xing's shop, just as Ye Xing came out to open the door.

"Brother Da Zhu, Aunt Lin, you guys are really timely." Ye Xing said while letting them into the yard, "It must be hard work to drive in the dark, come in quickly to keep warm."

Da Zhu was going to the dock to grab a job, but if he was late, it would be in vain, "No, no, I still have to go to the dock, and my mother will leave it to you."

"Then be careful yourself. Don't force yourself when you're tired. You also said that you can make more money if you lose money."

Seeing Da Zhu disappear into the night, Lin followed Ye Xing in, "Xiao Xing, what shall I do first, my aunt has never worked in the shop, if you can't do it well, please bear with me."

"Sister-in-law Lin, don't be afraid, you can cook with me later, and I will teach you." Mrs. Wang came out of the kitchen, took Lin's hand and comforted her, "Come on, let's make stuffing first."

Mrs. Lin is indeed a good cook. Her speed of cutting vegetables is no less than that of Mrs. Wang, and the vegetables she cuts are uniform in thickness. With her help, she can finally open for business together with other breakfast shops this time.

"Auntie, we will be selling cooking cakes and steamed buns later, are you selling with me or are you preparing for lunch later?"

"No, no, I, I'm afraid..." Mrs. Lin was still a little scared. Yesterday, she heard Da Zhu say that the business of this shop is very good. If she received the wrong money and said the wrong words, then she would not be able to pay [-] Wen a day. of.

"Well, Auntie, you can prepare it later, and we'll go eat breakfast together when it's sold out." Ye Xing added, fearing Lin's discomfort, "Don't worry about it later, we can make breakfast together after we eat breakfast." Not long."

Outside the door, people who didn't buy biscuits and steamed buns yesterday have already started queuing up, and some people said impatiently: "Little lady, are you ready? I got up early to buy your biscuits and steamed buns in cold weather."

"You insist on getting up so early, isn't she still selling it at noon!" Someone choked, thinking that people who don't have to get up early to work also come to join in the fun, so they have to queue before dawn.

"You think I love getting up so early, isn't it because my children must eat breakfast when they say it. Besides, there are more people at noon. You didn't see what it looked like yesterday!"

"Sorry for keeping everyone waiting for so long." Ye Xing immediately came out to smooth things over when she heard the voices of the dispute, "We will start selling it right away, and today we specially made a lot more to ensure that everyone can buy it!"

Ye Xing's reassurance calmed down the anger of those who lined up. After all, they woke up so early to see if the biscuits and steamed buns at Ye Niangzi's restaurant were really so good-looking and delicious.Therefore, the selling speed of the biscuits and steamed buns in this shop is two or three times that of other shops. They can only look at the hot business over there and envy them: "Oh, what kind of world is this? They are rushing to ask for a biscuit for three pennies, but they are selling for one penny." Can't sell it."

However, Ye Xing was not fascinated by the temporary bustle. After selling chrysanthemum-style biscuits and steamed buns for three days, she decided to change to new ones.

"Isn't this selling well, why do you need to change the pattern?" Lin didn't understand why the business was so good.

"Auntie, no matter how beautiful things are, they will get tired after looking at them for a long time. We can't wait until the guests are gone before changing them. We need to take advantage of the limelight to add fuel to the fire. When the time comes, the guests will think of Miss Ye when they buy pancakes and steamed buns." The restaurants are here, so you can try other dim sum."

"Doesn't that mean you have to think of new tricks every day? It seems that the business of flower-shaped cakes and steamed buns is not easy to do."

"Sister Lin, leave this kind of thing to her. She is clever and has a lot of ideas. Let's just follow her." Seeing Lin is like seeing herself before, but now she treats Ye Xing It is complete trust.

Ye Xing made a bold attempt this time, abandoning the shape of ordinary pancakes and steamed buns, and she wanted to make them into the shape of a flower.The red dough is rolled into pieces the size of the palm of your hand, and then pasted one by one on the outside of the round red bean paste. After two or three layers, arrange the top of the petals, and a red rose appears. up.In order to be more delicate, Ye Xing pasted two or three green ones as leaves.

Meat stuffing and tofu and other fillings cannot be wrapped in this way. Ye Xing first wraps the filling with yellow dough and twists it into an oval shape, and then uses a white oval dough to stick to the bottom of the filling. The petals cover the yellow filling, and a small piece of green dough is added to the root. At first glance, it looks like a shy gardenia waiting to be released.

Lin and Wang learned while watching. They were not proficient at first, but they got better and better later on. After they finished making steamed buns, they planned to make cakes like this, but Ye Xing immediately stopped them.

"There is no need to wrap the pancakes like this. If there is no filling, let's use a simpler method."

After finishing talking, Ye Xing directly stacked eight pieces of red round dough in half and arranged them in a row, and then rolled them up from the top of the dough. After rolling, use chopsticks to press in the middle, and after the left and right sides are separated, they will become It becomes a rose, and it is not inferior to the rose steamed buns that are slowly pasted. This way, one person can make ten of them with the effort of a cup of tea.

Lin Shiben had already spoken good things about Ye Xing to Da Zhu on the way home, but when he got home and saw Da Niu, he praised Ye Xing again and again.

"It's no wonder that such a cautious person in the Wang family would agree to let Xiao Xing open the shop. She even has the final say on hiring people."

"Sister Ye Xing is amazing, mother, please explain carefully!" The eldest girl's eyes lit up, and she was so excited that she couldn't even bother to eat.

"She arranged the dough in a row, then rolled it all the way to the end, and separated it in the middle, and it became two flowers. Although it sounds simple, it is almost like a real flower. Open the steamer today, good guy, People queuing up to buy pancakes thought they had steamed real flowers in them, and some even bought them and put them on their heads!"

It was rare for Mrs. Lin to talk so much, she drank her saliva and continued: "There are not many flowers at this time, and the news that our shop has directly made cooking cakes and steamed buns into real flowers spread immediately. People from the whole prefecture are queuing up."

"Brother, is it true? I really want to see with my own eyes how rich people line up to buy pancakes in Fucheng? Also, I have never seen pancakes like flowers!"

"Okay, after a while, my mother and I will take you to Fucheng. If you go to the shop, you should be smart and help with some work. Don't be naughty, you know?"

Mrs. Lin scowled at Dazhu, "How can I bring my child with me when I go to work. Be good, girl, I will make you a flower-shaped pancake at home in a few days, and keep it if you like it!""
