Chapter 149 First Snow



The taste is unquestionable. To be honest, the mashed potato noodles are served with meat sauce. The chewy noodles taste a little spicy, but not strong, because peppercorns and a series of spices to enhance the flavor are used when frying the meat sauce.

The fragrant and soft mashed potatoes, the fresh and tender fat of the meat sauce, these flavors are combined together in the mouth, creating an unprecedented feeling.

People with little culture cannot come up with fancy words, and everyone's unanimous response is:

Delicious...so delicious!

Speaking of fried dumplings, they are unheard of in the whole of Jeju. Dumplings are called flatbreads in Daqing. They can be steamed or boiled, but not fried. Just like Jiang Sui cooked it, the bottom is crispy, and the filling and the skin are soft and fragrant. It can be eaten not only as a main meal, but also as a daily snack.

Jiang Sui thought, since everyone can accept and love fried dumplings, she can definitely develop pan-fried buns in the future.

With these fresh ways of eating that she has come up with, once they are on the market, there is no doubt that they will surpass the West Street snack street.

Moreover, there is no need to worry about them copying, as they cannot copy the essence. In this world, whether it is food or drink, the first one to develop it will always be a classic.

Moreover, snack markets cannot arbitrarily disrupt prices, which is tantamount to disrupting market order and is not allowed in Jeju.

At that time, if you spend the same money to eat the same thing, even a fool would know to eat the most classic one.

"Fourth sister-in-law, this is so delicious. Tell me how many weird and delicious ways of eating it you have hidden away?"

Xiao Lanlan's cat stomach finished a whole bowl of mashed potato noodles and eight fried dumplings, which shows how good it tastes.

Jiang Sui looked up proudly when he heard this:

"That's a lot. How about we have wonton and braised noodles for lunch tomorrow?"

"How do you eat braised noodles?"

This was also the first time that Xiao's mother heard about it.

"You'll know tomorrow. Sister Song will come over to pick up Xuxu later. I'll fry her another plate of dumplings and let her take them home to eat."

As the sky was getting dark, it was almost time for Madam Song to come and pick up Xuxu.

Speak of the devil, and here he appears. As soon as Jiang Sui finished speaking, Madam Song came over. It was drizzling outside with a cold wind. Madam Song had worked hard all day, and her neat bun was blown into a mess.

Jiang Sui fried a dozen hot dumplings for her. Xuxu had already eaten some. Her dumplings were big, so Madam Song should be able to eat enough.

After cleaning for others for so many days in a row, her hands had been soaked in cold water for a long time. Her originally fair and slender hands had become red and swollen from the cold, and some parts of them had already been broken and cracked.

Xiao Qin saw it all, felt pain in his heart, and silently kept this in mind.

Madam Song was very grateful as she took the hot fried dumplings that Jiang Sui gave her.

She had to hold the umbrella, hold her daughter, and get food at the same time, so she really didn't have any extra hands. She was also tired after a whole day and had no strength left.

Xiao Qin took the initiative to pick up Xuxu and prepared to send the mother and daughter home.

Mrs. Song did not refuse, but helped to hold the umbrella.

Xiao's mother and the others noticed all these details. It was not that they didn't care about Madam Song, but they wanted to leave this opportunity to show off to their silly son.

Xiao Qin sent his mother and daughter home. When he came back, his mother stuffed a small porcelain box into his hand.

"Mom, what is this?" The straight man didn't recognize these girly things.

Mother Xiao sighed and explained:

"This is frostbite cream. Look at what has become of Madam Song's hand? You are such a blockhead. Since you like her, you should show your sincerity and let her see your feelings. Find an opportunity tomorrow and give this frostbite cream to Madam Song and say that you bought it. Do you hear me?"

Xiao's mother thought, she had helped her silly son so much, if he still didn't wake up, then she would be helpless.

"You do so many things behind the scenes, but people don't know about it. How can they understand your kindness and your intentions? You have to let people see it, right?"

Xiao Qin thought his mother didn't know about this and that he had hidden his thoughts very well, but it turned out that everyone knew about it.

He scratched the back of his head embarrassedly:

"Mom, have you seen all this?"

"Can't you see? It's so obvious. I'm not a fool. I'm very smart!"

In fact, Xiao Qin already had an idea in his mind. He planned to use the money he had saved to buy some hand ointment for Madam Song, but he wanted to buy it at the drugstore. Now the frostbite ointment his mother gave him was different. It was packaged in such a beautiful small porcelain bottle, and it smelled fragrant after opening it. It turned out that women really understand women better.

After a night, it snowed in Jeju Prefecture. When I woke up in the morning, I saw a thin layer of white on the eaves, tiles, and yard.

The air smells of first snow.

Good news came from outside the city. The relief grain issued by the court has arrived in succession, and the disaster relief silver has also been sent to various disaster-stricken areas under the escort of special personnel. Reconstruction will begin from now on.

There were already tens of thousands of disaster victims stranded outside the city. The people from above organized low-level officials to gather these refugees together, register them one by one, and ask them clearly where they had fled from.

Afterwards, the imperial court would arrange troops to divide them into several groups and send them back to their hometowns to participate in paid reconstruction.

In other words, the refugees can return to their hometowns, have food and shelter temporarily, and rebuild their homes through their own labor together with the imperial militia, and they can get paid for it.

Women can cook and men can work, and after their homes are rebuilt, the disaster-stricken areas can be exempted from taxes for two years to restore the vitality of the people and the local economy.

Years ago, all the stranded refugees at the gate of Jeju City were sent away in just a few days. It is said that some kind-hearted people even paid out of their own pockets to customize a lot of winter cotton-padded clothes for these refugees so that they would not suffer from the cold on their way back home.

The refugee camps have also begun to be demolished, and Jeju will be able to return to its former state before the end of the year.

Xiao Hechuan went out to buy groceries with Jiang Sui early in the morning and heard about it on the way. He knew that these were all the work of Helian Jing. He always did things in this way, quickly and decisively, without any mistakes. He could not only complete the task perfectly, but also take care of all aspects of the people. His face was cold, but his heart was hot.

As for the kind-hearted person who paid out of his own pocket, it was probably Xia Wanning. After all, her mother's family was the richest in Jiangnan, and she was the only daughter in the family. She could easily spend tens of thousands of cotton-padded clothes, and only she had the courage to do so.
