Chapter 299 Ready to open!



Xiao Lingling didn't know what to say for a moment, but she still didn't accept the change.

"Fourth brother, keep it. I left it with you. If you come across anything delicious in the future, just use this money to buy it for me."

Lin Wu was a little hesitant. He could actually buy it for his younger sister himself, but then he thought about the few coins left in his pocket.

Forget it, just keep it. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if you can’t afford it.

So after thinking for a while, Lin Wu finally put it away.

Xiao Lingdang also felt that the water in the spirit pool was almost enough, so she rinsed her hands and went upstairs, holding a string of candied haws that Lin Wu handed to her.

Hmm~~It tastes really good, sour and slightly sweet, quite appetizing.

"Fourth brother, why don't you eat?"

Lin Wu pointed embarrassedly at the string of smiles that was obviously missing a pill.

"I, I have some too, but I don't feel like eating right now. It's okay, you can eat it. There's a lot more here if you like."

Little Bell didn't think much about it, nodded and walked happily towards the treasure chest.

Only Lin Wu, who was following behind her, looked depressed.

What's going on? Today's candied haws are obviously very sour, but why is my little sister still eating them with such relish? Is it possible that only the one he just took is sour?

While Xiao Lingling wasn't paying attention, Lin Wu picked another bunch and took a tentative bite. The familiar sour taste instantly spread in his mouth, making him frown subconsciously, shrink his neck, and his teeth were so sour that they were about to ache.

He finally understood why the old man made less today, and seeing that he bought a lot, he gave him a few cents off. It must be because the old man knew that the food today was not tasty.

What a loss! He should have bought a bunch to try first!

Lin Wu turned the bitten candied haws in his hand, turned the bitten part to the back and inserted it back on the pole, pretending nothing had happened.

When I pushed the door open, Lin Feng had already returned, and there were several cold dishes on the table.

Little Bell was quite excited, "Come, come, fourth brother bought a lot of candied haws, big brother, second brother, sister Tong, sister Qiaomei, come, have one each and eat them all.

It’s just that the meal hasn’t started yet, so I’ll eat one first to whet my appetite so I can eat more later.”

The children all liked to eat this kind of snack and rushed to it. Soon there was not much left on the pole in Lin Wu's hand.

Seeing that there were too many candied haws, Fang and the others were worried that the children would eat too much, so they also took two.

However, no one knew who started it, but everyone immediately started making noise.

"Wow! My teeth are so sour, Lao Si, have you been cheated again?"

"Hiss~~~Ah, I can't take it anymore, it's so sour, my tongue seems to be numb, I can't feel it at all, I don't want to eat anymore, whoever wants to eat it can eat it!"

"I'm not going to eat it anymore. I only took a small bite and it was so sour that I shivered. I've never eaten such a sour candied haws in my life!"

Several boys threw the candied haws into the bowl and drank water quickly.

Wu Tongtong and Qiaomei felt a little embarrassed. They couldn't finish the food, but it would be a pity to throw it away.

Just when everyone was complaining that the candied haws were not tasty, there were still people eating them with gusto.

One is Xiao Lingling, and the other is the pregnant Xia Yan.

Everyone can understand Xia Yan, but what about Xiao Lingling? How can she be so sour?

Zhao pulled her closer with some concern, "My dear, doesn't it taste sour to you? If it does, let's not eat it. Be careful not to upset your stomach!"

Little Bell looked at her with a confused look on her face. "Grandma, it's not sour. It's delicious, sour and sweet. I like it. Look, I'm almost finished."

Zhao looked at her right hand, and it was true. She had already eaten eight out of the ten in a string.

As she spoke, she took a bite of one and put it in her mouth, and her cheeks bulged.

Xia Yan smiled and said, "It's a little sour, but it's acceptable. Besides, it tastes quite good and is very appetizing!"

After saying that, the mother and daughter smiled at each other as if they sympathized with each other. Little Lingling jumped up, picked another string from the pole, and ran over to hand it to Xia Yan.

"Godmother, here you go. I told you it was delicious, but they couldn't tell."

Xia Yan expressed her understanding. She knew her appetite and usually liked sweet and sour tastes. Since she became pregnant, she liked sour food even more.

Sometimes, when I feel so horny, I just want to drink a bowl of vinegar. The sour dried apricots I used to love don’t seem to be strong enough.

Today's candied haws are really to her liking. I guess it's normal for ordinary people to think they are sour.

Seeing that they were enjoying their meal, everyone stopped talking and left the remaining skewers untouched, leaving them aside for them to eat.

As for those that Xia Yan had taken away but couldn't eat, she was reluctant to waste them.

She asked someone to bring clean bowls and chopsticks, picked out the bitten parts, and put the rest into a clean bowl so that she could eat them later.

However, the people were so upset that they obviously lacked the fighting spirit to finish the meal. After the meal, most of the food was still left on the table.

It's not that the food wasn't tasty, but every single one of them had teeth so sore from the sourness that they couldn't chew anything. I barely managed to eat a little bit of food, but then I couldn't eat anymore...

Because of this incident, everyone's interest waned a bit. After packing up early, they agreed on a time to go home.

Just waiting for the grand opening ceremony the next day.

For this day, Lin Feng and Fang stayed in the carpentry workshop for one night.

The next morning, Lin Feng's brothers and sisters-in-law came to the store together. All the children had changed into clothes of the same color and style, looking clean and tidy.

The shop door was opened and all the tables, chairs and benches inside were wiped.

The firecrackers are ready and tied to one end of a long pole. Just wait for the auspicious time to arrive and then you can go to the door to set off the firecrackers.

The kitchen was already busy with preparations at this time. All the vegetables and meat had been taken out and cleaned. As long as a customer placed an order, the kitchen would immediately start cooking.

There is also soup that needs to be stewed in advance, which has already been stewed in the pot early.

In fact, all soups and dishes should be limited in quantity, but there is no limit in quantity during the last three days of opening, so two large pots of soup have been stewed.

Now turn on a low heat. As long as someone orders it, you can serve it separately, put it in a small ceramic pot, simmer it on high heat for a quarter of an hour, and then serve it on the table.

The cold dishes have already been prepared. All you need to do is pour the special sauce on them and mix them well before serving. It’s quick and easy.

The kitchen is also very spacious, with four rows of stoves, each row with four burners, one small, three large, and three large, which is more than enough.
