Chapter 138 Little Fubao Eats Meat
At this time, little Fubao was so busy that his hands were almost overwhelmed.
I saw that one of her tender white hands was stuffed with a piece of mutton, and the other hand was holding a skewer of meat.
The white and tender little face was already covered with mutton fat.
There was a piece of meat stuffed in the baby's mouth, bulging the two little cheeks, and the little milk teeth in the mouth were fighting hard with the piece of meat.
Her chewing movements seemed a little clumsy, but her expression of concentration and satisfaction made people laugh.
The aroma of mutton filled little Fubao's mouth, and her big watery eyes gradually narrowed into slits, as if she was enjoying the most delicious food in the world.
After some effort, little Fubao finally swallowed the piece of mutton in her mouth, and immediately stuffed the piece of mutton in her right hand, along with her little hand, into her mouth. Her already small mouth had been stretched to the extreme.
After Wan Ersao distributed the lamb skewers to the children, she turned around and saw her daughter in this state. She was a little amused and helpless.
She also glared at Wan Laoer in reproach.
"Your daughter's mouth is about to be torn apart by your hand, and you don't do anything about it?"
Mrs. Wan Er quickly took Xiao Fubao over and pulled her little hand out of her mouth. The little guy immediately became anxious and tried to put it back into her mouth.
While coaxing little Fubao, Wan Ersao pried open the little guy's fingers one by one, dug out the piece of mutton inside, and tore it into small pieces to feed little Fubao.
Little Fubao finally got to eat the delicious meat again. He nestled in Wan Ersao's arms and enjoyed it. He also handed the rest in his hand to Wan Ersao and asked her to help tear it into small pieces.
Wan Ersao took the skewers lovingly and fed her daughter patiently with a smile on her face.
There were only five small pieces of mutton in a skewer. Little Fubao was still not full after finishing it and kept asking for more.
Mrs. Wan was afraid that Xiao Fubao would have trouble digesting the food if she ate too much, so she wiped her face and mouth carefully while coaxing her to eat something else.
Although children are smart, they are always curious about new things, and soon little Fubao's eyes were attracted by other things.
In addition to the stalls selling grilled lamb skewers on the street, there are various other foods, such as yogurt, pilaf, ramen, knife-cut noodles, pulled noodles, mutton soup with steamed buns, small dumplings, and big buns, but most of them are pasta. The northwest of Cangyu Country is dry and windy all year round, and there is no fertile land. The main economic crops here are barley and wheat.
The group finally found a place to sit in a shop.
The family sat down at three tables. Wan Laoer ordered a portion of pulled noodles for each person. The soup was made from mutton with a rich base. Drinking a bowl of it in this chilly winter weather warmed the body and was very refreshing.
Little Fubao had a bowl of wontons. Mrs. Wan Er discovered that the little guy especially loved eating meat.
Everyone else had a bowl of pulled noodles, but Xiao Fubao had a bowl of wontons.
Everyone had just eaten two pieces of mutton, which had already aroused their appetite. When they saw a bowl of fragrant pulled noodles, everyone couldn't help swallowing.
Mrs. Wan couldn't wait to pick up a piece of pulled noodles with chopsticks. The rich aroma of mutton soup mixed with the aroma of wheat wafted to her face.
The dough has a rough texture when you put it in your mouth. This is the unique mark left by the flour and hands after kneading. It also makes the dough chewier and more flavorful.
The softness and chewiness inside the noodles are intertwined in the mouth, and you can clearly feel the distinct layers of taste. The deliciousness of the soup and the chewiness of the noodles blend together, giving it a delicious taste.
Everyone in the Wan family was eating hard and sweating profusely. At the tables, the only sounds were the slurping and gurgling of soup.
At the border, noodles are eaten in large coarse porcelain bowls, which are both delicious and affordable. This large bowl of noodles with mutton soup only costs eight cents, and is much more filling than the mutton skewers just now. After eating a large bowl, an adult man like Boss Wan feels very satisfied.
After finishing the meal, Mrs. Wan San was a little thoughtful. Would the taste be richer if some side dishes were added to the soup?
A group of people had just finished their meal and walked out of the shop when little Fubao was attracted by the red candied haws.
Mrs. Wan Er's eyes were already narrowed with smile. The little guy had no interest in anything else and only stared at the food.
Mrs. Wan Er has already determined that her little daughter is definitely a foodie.
However, if her daughter wanted to eat candied haws, she would not be reluctant to give it to her. It happened that she had just eaten too much meat, so eating a string of candied haws would help digestion and prevent indigestion.
Wan Ersao took out a few coins from her purse and gave them to Wan Laoer.
"Go buy some candied haws for your daughter."
Wan Laoer smiled and touched Xiao Fubao's fair face, "My daughter wants to eat candied haws. Daddy will pick a big one for you."
A string of candied haws cost three cents, and there were ten in each string. Wan Laoer bought two strings and gave one to each of the other children.
Little Fubao was favored by everyone and she owned a whole bunch of them.
After eating and drinking, I can finally go to see the shop.
There are basically no idle or sublet shops on both sides of the main street.
As they walked along just now, Mrs. Wan San and Mrs. Qiu had already noticed all this.
At this time, everyone walked along the main street to the end, but did not see any shops for rent.
So Wan Sansao had to settle for the next best thing and came to the next street. Although the next street was not as prosperous as the main street, it was also lined with shops.
The streets are winding and not as straight as those inside the Great Wall. The shops on both sides are low earthen structures with thick thatched roofs.
Between the houses, there are a few tall poplar trees that can be seen occasionally, but now they are bare and look a bit desolate.
The shops on this street include blacksmith shops, teahouses, taverns, snack shops, cloth shops, fur shops and so on. Although the variety is not as complete as that on the main street, the flow of people is not small either.
The group walked through the streets, but they didn't see any suitable shops until they reached the end. There were a few shops for rent, but they were all large shops consisting of two or three rooms connected together. The Wan family just wanted to find a smaller shop to sell a few snacks, with space for four or five tables.
The Wan family became more and more anxious as they walked. The shops at this border were even more crowded than those inside the border. When they were inside the border, they occasionally found signs of shops for rent when they went to the town to do some shopping. However, shops at this border were much harder to find than those inside the border.
Just when everyone was feeling disappointed, a shop with a sign saying "Shop for Sale" appeared in front of everyone.
However, the location of this shop is too remote, and if you walk further in, you will basically reach the end of the road. There is a large piece of wasteland over there, and feces can be seen everywhere. The environment is very dirty.
They are in the food business, and this kind of environment is definitely not suitable for them.
Qiu's face was not looking very good at this time, with a hint of anxiety on her face. During the time she stayed in the Cheetah Sect, she inquired about a lot of business matters at the border. She knew that although the land at this border seemed barren and the people were poor, business was actually easier to do than at the border, especially the sale of goods and food business, which had considerable profits. This was why she wanted to invest immediately when she heard Old Lady Wan talking about opening a food shop.
