Chapter 109 A Pie Falling from the Sky (1/2)



Yang Yufen was worried about exhausting everyone, so she originally planned to add mutton soup and skip the cold noodles, since mutton soup noodles would be quicker. However, Gui Xiang and her husband, who weren't afraid of getting tired, added dumplings as well, making the variety even richer.

"Okay, we'll take a break at noon on the 30th, and then resume operations after the 5th of the new year. The kids will be home on holiday, so there will be plenty of opportunities to help out, and we won't get too tired."

"Why are you still open until noon on the 30th? Taking a break a couple of days earlier wouldn't make much difference."

If Yang Yufen hadn't seen the plumpness on Guixiang's face, she would have been afraid of exhausting her.

"Many families have no one to cook at home. They get busier at the end of the year, but at least they can have a meal at noon and buy some dumplings to take home so they won't go hungry on New Year's Eve."

After Gui Xiang said this, Yang Yu Fen stopped talking.

The two arrived early, and when they returned to the shop, there were still quite a few people queuing to buy breakfast.

"Aunt Yang!"

When Yang Yufen heard the voice, she looked and saw it was Xiao Zhang. However, Xiao Zhang was accompanied by another person who looked like a wealthy man.

"Little Zhang."

"Hey, I brought some people here for breakfast."

"Okay, you guys eat."

After saying goodbye, Yang Yufen went to the back with Guixiang.

"Cousin, is the money-making method you mentioned reliable?"

Xiao Zhang recently started dating someone. Because he doesn't have a job, even though he earns a lot each month, the woman's family doesn't approve of his relationship and wants to find her a job. They say that every job is essential, and nothing can be missing.

That's not the hardest part. The hardest part is that there are people with better conditions than him pursuing the person he likes, and then the woman's family also prefers that person.

But he really liked that girl. She was not only beautiful, but also very good at studying. She was fair-skinned and clean-cut. He fell in love with her at first sight. He thought about giving up, but the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became. He was so unwilling that he even forgot about the fear of being robbed when he went out.

"Of course it's reliable. You've been in one place for too long and haven't seen the outside world. Let me tell you, people with little money wouldn't even let you join. If it weren't for the fact that you have some savings, I wouldn't even bother to tell you. Without someone to guide you, you can't even join if you want to."

"You really think that if you invest everything and do nothing, you can earn this much in a month with just the principal and interest?"

"Then where do you think these came from?"

The man tugged at his collar and shook his wrist, revealing a large gold chain and a watch that was dazzlingly bright.

"Think it over early. If you're coming with me, we'll leave tomorrow. Get your money ready. If you miss this opportunity, you won't get another one. If you can bring in more money, you'll earn even more."

The man said something mysteriously, then started spitting out his breakfast while eating it in large bites.

"I'm leaving now. You can figure it out yourself."

Xiao Zhang finished eating quietly. Yang Yufen and Gui Xiang overheard it, but because they were in the back, they heard everything without even trying.

"Yufen, do you really think there's such a thing as a free lunch?"

"Of course not."

After thinking for a moment, Yang Yufen walked towards Xiao Zhang.

"There aren't that many free lunches in the world; it's better to be down-to-earth."

After Yang Yufen finished speaking, she picked up her things and left.

Looking up at Yang Yufen's back, Xiao Zhang thought of his most difficult time, closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and threw the big gold chain and watch over his head.

He still has parents to support. If they really miss each other, then it can only mean that they are not meant to be. He can't go. What if he takes all his belongings and runs so far away? What if he loses all his money and can't come back?

After thinking it through, Xiao Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, feeling less burdened. He had brought his cousin here specifically today, having hesitated for a long time, but unexpectedly, he actually met Aunt Yang. Perhaps this was a sign from heaven.

Yang Yufen didn't take it seriously and forgot about it when she got home. She kept washing, chopping, and mincing, and the cutting board never stopped.

Professor Wen took care of the child, and Aunt Wang helped out, bringing along all the food and ingredients.

Once the oil in the pan is hot, the dough pieces are dropped into the pan one by one, then scooped out and dropped back into the pan, rolled into long strips of twisted dough, and coated with sesame seeds.
