Little Yuan selling dim sum



On East Market Street.

Yuan, carrying a basket, asked passers-by on the road:

"Would you like some snacks? Auntie, can you buy some?"

"Would you like some snacks? Would you like some snacks, sister?"

"Anyone want to buy some snacks? They're still hot!"

"Wait...not hot anymore?!"

"Anyone want to buy some snacks? These snacks are just getting cold!"

"It smells good! It's sweet! It tastes good! It's worth having one! But you have to pay for it!"

A Yuan ran around with a basket on his shoulder, and whenever he saw someone, he would hold up the basket and recommend something.

Dalang followed behind Yuan silently, accepting the gazes of every passerby. He somewhat missed his second cousin who used to be timid when talking to strangers.

But I still can't help but admire my uncle.

Afraid that Yuan wouldn't be able to sell all of her pack of snacks, Dalang suggested that she open the packs and sell them one cent at a time. Dalang thought that no one would buy them at such a high price, but they actually sold out very quickly.

Especially the children, they are happy to spend a penny to buy a snack!

It didn't take long for Yuan to sell most of the basket of dim sum.

Excluding the cost of paying back the money, I have earned dozens of cents!

If she could resist the urge to sneak a few pieces to eat, there would probably be more, and with the addition of apricots, there would be even more.

This made Dalang want to make some snacks to sell, but he was afraid that it would not work. Sister Li was willing to make an extra pot and sell it to her two younger sisters at a low price because she had a good relationship with Yuan and the others.

They can't take advantage of this.

What's more, if more people sell it, this thing will become worthless.

Besides, they had to be watched. It was a good plan, but they forgot about the appointment with Xiao Shitou and the others yesterday. When they came back from getting snacks, they found that all the children had left.

Uncle and his family had left early with Wulang and Liulang, so there was no choice but for him and Erlang to bring them here. Otherwise, it would be so hot and the snacks would not be fresh tomorrow and would not be able to be sold.

After deducting the wages that were deducted for the time he and Erlang wasted, it was not a profit today, but fortunately it was not a loss either. If they can get up tomorrow, then it will be a real profit.

When Dalang saw that she had sold almost all the goods, he called her over and lifted the cloth covering the basket to take a look:

"That's it. Leave a few pieces for yourself. Big brother has to go to the wine shop. I talked to the shopkeeper this morning. You'll be waiting in the kitchen.

Can I take you home tonight after my aunt and I finish our work?"

Yuan handed him a piece, then picked up another piece for himself and chewed it while saying:

"Okay, what about Kyoko?"

"Xingzi is with Jiro. You'll see her when you go back in the evening."

Dalang touched her head, took the basket, put the snacks back into the basket, and walked forward taking Yuan with him.

Ah Yuan followed him obediently, but said unwillingly:

"Brother, eat it! Don't put it back. The snacks made by Sister Li are delicious!"

Dalang smiled and said to her gently:

"Brother doesn't like sweet food, it will cause toothache. Yuan, you can eat it yourself. If it's not enough, there's more here."

There are very few snacks at home. Adults and my brothers usually don’t like to eat such things. They always say that they feel uncomfortable after eating those things. Only dad and grandpa can eat more.

Every time Yuan heard this, he felt sad for them because they couldn’t eat so many delicious foods.

These people have good memories and always use similar reasons, so Yuan didn't think much about it and said:

"I will stop eating after I finish this, and share the rest with everyone when I get back!"

"Okay! But if Yuan wants to eat more, he can have some more."

After meeting Fubao, Dalang began to cherish his normal brothers and sisters at home even more and was always gentle and kind to them.

He is Yuan's favorite brother. He is very well behaved and obedient no matter what he says.

So Dalang talked more to A Yuan.

After sending Yuan to his aunt in the kitchen of the wine shop, Dalang was still thinking about visiting his sister.

The owner of Tang's Wine Shop couldn't help laughing when he saw him coming out of the kitchen empty-handed again:

"Da Lang loves his sister so much. He becomes much more energetic when his sister comes home!

That child is very well behaved. In the future, you can ask him to come and play more often when he has time, so that you can have some youthful spirit!"

Shopkeeper Tang likes the young man Dalang very much. He is diligent, good-looking, has a good memory, has a lively eye, and can speak well.

The only thing I am dissatisfied with is that this child is so young, but he looks so old, as if he is full of worries. When he is resting, he just sits there in a daze.

When talking to Aunt Li, I always feel a little insecure.

He asked several times but couldn't get anything out of him. He only heard that his mother had run away and his father had become stupid. He thought that their family had bad relations and that this was the reason why he had to make a living under his aunt.

But looking at his relationship with his sister, it doesn’t seem to be the case!

Seems like a very good relationship!

Shopkeeper Tang had no intention of prying into other people's family affairs, but he sincerely hoped that Dalang would be happy.

Dalang knew that he meant well, so he smiled shyly and gently and said:

"She wanted to make some money selling snacks on the street, but she didn't make an appointment with her friends. If she has an appointment tomorrow, she might not be able to come. Thank you very much today, and it's not good to bother you all the time."

Shopkeeper Tang had no choice but to nod, and then asked:

"Do you still make snacks and sell them at home?"

"They don't have that skill. They know a girl who can do it and is willing to sell them at a lower price. That's how they can make some money."

The two men exchanged a few words and then went about their own business. The chef in Manager Tang's shop only knew how to make snacks and had no interest in this. Besides, since they were a wine shop, snacks to go with wine would be a good selling point.

Dalang worked for a while, thought for a while, and when he went to see his sister again, he took a few pieces of snacks and embarrassedly gave them to the shopkeeper and others, asking them to have a taste.

Although there weren't many things, everyone in the store was very happy and treated Dalang better.

Shopkeeper Tang smiled secretly, winked at Dalang and gave him a thumbs up.

Very smart!

After all, Dalang came later and did a good job, but he didn't like to talk much when he was free and he wasn't very close to everyone. On the contrary, Li was carefree and outspoken and got along better with everyone. Things would be better with this.

When they got off work in the evening, Dalang divided the leftovers better than usual. In the past, Dalang's division would have been a little worse.

Yuan watched them divide the food and jumped for joy on his way home:

"There's roast chicken to eat! Such a big piece!"

The big piece that Yuan was talking about was actually half of the skeleton with the head. The chicken legs and other parts had already been eaten or divided up.

Li and Dalang felt a little jealous when they saw Yuan was so happy to see some meat.

But they are also very happy, because now they can have meat from time to time!

Things are finally starting to get better!
