Chapter 39 Chapter 39 The delicious and crispy scallion pancake must be...

The next morning, everyone split up into several groups:

Su Tianli asked her neighbor Aunt Liu for help. She spent fifty cents to hire a neighbor with a tricycle to take her, Cheng Yu, and Old Lady Su to the provincial hospital for treatment.

Mao Li and A Juan went to buy ingredients for setting up a stall at the night market tonight;

Zhang Wei went to the police station to report the incident - mainly to the police about Wang Aiqin abandoning her sick son Cheng Yu.

In this way, Su Tianli was busy in the Provincial Hospital for the whole morning.

Finally, Cheng Yu was admitted to the hospital again.

However, the doctor at the Provincial Hospital told Su Tianli, "Given Cheng Yu's condition, let's arrange for him to stay in the hospital for three days. As long as his condition stabilizes, he can be discharged and go home to recuperate. After all, while he's in the hospital, we're actually just letting him rest and take his medicine on time."

Su Tianli nodded repeatedly.

After she settled Cheng Yu in the inpatient department, Su Tianli took Old Lady Su to see the oncology department.

After reading Mrs. Su's medical records and test reports, and looking at the medicine prescribed by the municipal doctor for her, the doctor from the Provincial Hospital's Oncology Department thought for a long time and proposed changing the medicine.

Su Tianli couldn't help but discuss a few words with the doctor.

The doctor was a little surprised, "You also know medicine?"

Su Tianli said shyly: "I am an educated youth who returned to the city. I used to work as a nurse on a farm."

The doctor shook his head, "Nurses and doctors cannot be confused. Since you are a nurse, you should understand this even more."

Su Tianli then said, "I want to take the college entrance examination and become a medical student... After my grandmother fell ill, I studied her medical records for a long time... I also read the medicine prescribed by the municipal doctor."

The doctor was very happy to hear this. "It's great that you still have such ambitions!"

Next, the old doctor discussed Mrs. Su’s condition seriously with Su Tianli…

After finishing all these, it was already noon.

Su Tianli first took Old Lady Su to Cheng Yu's ward. She originally wanted to let Grandma rest for a while on the chair in the ward, but she didn't expect that Zhang Wei and two policemen were staying in the ward and asking questions about Cheng Yu.

Public Security, "Cheng Yu, can you hear me?"

Cheng Yu: “Yes.”

Public Security Bureau: "Your friend Zhang Wei said that you want to call the police, right?"

Cheng Yu: "Yes."

Police: "Why do you want to call the police?"

Cheng Yu, "...my mother abandoned me."

Public Security, "Who is your mother? Where does she work?"

Cheng Yu, "Wang...Aiqin, City, City People's Hospital."

Public Security, "Is she your biological mother?"

Cheng Yu paused for a long time and said "yes".

The police officer asked again, "Cheng Yu, how old are you this year?"

Cheng Yu: "Twenty-two years old."

Police: "Cheng Yu, are you sure you want to call the police now?"

Cheng Yu: "Sure."

The police officer hesitated, "Cheng Yu, your current condition... is a concussion, right? Let's not talk about whether you can understand what we say... Even if you can understand, and you insist on calling the police, logically speaking, we... agree with your attitude."

Then he sighed, "But there is a problem now - you are already an adult, so your claim of 'abandonment' is actually untenable."

Cheng Yu fell silent.

After a while, the police officer said softly, "Cheng Yu, we are in a difficult situation too. If you were still a minor, we could go to your mother and talk to her about this. If you were a girl... even if you were an adult, we could go to the Women's Federation and ask them to come forward and talk to your mother about this."

"But--"

Cheng Yu finally spoke, "I...have a concussion. I am...sick. It doesn't mean...I'm a fool. I, I can...think."

He must be very tired and weak, and his voice is becoming increasingly unclear, but his tone is very persistent:

"I demand... to call the police! I demand... that the police conduct a thorough investigation into my life story with... He, He Wanqian."

The public security officer thought for a moment and said, "Cheng Yu, do you think this is okay? Your body has not fully recovered yet. How about we talk about the situation you just mentioned when you are better?"

Su Tianli interrupted, "Okay, I think this is a good idea."

——She asked Zhang Wei to call the police, claiming that Wang Aiqin abandoned Cheng Yu in order to leave a report.

However, the specific investigation must wait until Cheng Yu's condition improves, and he, the person involved, reports the case and follows up himself.

Otherwise, neither Su Tianli nor Zhang Wei would be able to replace Cheng Yu to do this.

Cheng Yu called out "Lizhi" softly, and then there was no more sound.

Su Tianli walked over, took out a handkerchief, folded it and covered his eyes with it.

Public Security: ???

Su Tianli said: "Don't worry, Public Security Comrade, Cheng Yu is asleep."

"He was kicked out of the hospital by his mother yesterday and was transferred here early this morning. He is still sick... and not in good spirits." Su Tianli explained.

"Then he also called the police?" the police officer couldn't help but say.

Su Tianli nodded. "To put it more recently, the first time he was injured in the head because he was trying to help his biological father. But his biological father just ignored him..."

"The second time, he was beaten by Fu Yan again. Isn't Fu Yan still in your police station now? Fu Yan didn't give Cheng Yu any compensation!"

"Then tell me, what should Cheng Yu do now?"

"Of course Zhang Wei and I will help Cheng Yu, but we are just Cheng Yu's friends, not his relatives..."

"He's at his wit's end now, how can he not be anxious?" Su Tianli asked back.

After hearing Su Tianli's words, the police fell silent.

Su Tianli added: "Thank you for your help today. When he gets better in a few days, we will accompany him to the police station to report the crime."

The police nodded repeatedly, "Yes! Come find me when the time comes! Zhang Wei knows that my last name is Li! I was also handling the case of Fu Yan attacking Cheng Yu at night. When Cheng Yu gets better, let him come find me. If he wants to report the child-swap case, I will follow up."

Su Tianli quickly thanked him, "Thank you then."

Since Li Gongan mentioned Fu Yan, Zhang Wei asked, "Li Gongan, how is Fu Yan doing now?"

Li Gongan replied: "We are currently going through the process. Fu Yan has already pleaded guilty, and Cheng Yu's injury report is also available. Now we just need to submit it and see what it says. After the case is successfully reviewed, we will talk to Fu Yan about compensation."

As he spoke, Li Gongan looked at Cheng Yu, who was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face, and showed pity on his face.

He then said to Zhang Wei: "Cheng Yu's situation... is indeed very worrying, but I still have to give you a heads-up - Fu Yan will most likely not be sentenced. At most, he can only be considered to have provoked trouble and be detained for a few days."

Zhang Wei was stunned.

Li Gongan continued, "Because Cheng Yu's injury report...is considered to be a minor injury at most, so you can ask for a little more civil compensation."

Zhang Wei subconsciously looked at Su Tianli.

Yes, Su Tianli had already told Zhang Wei and Mao Li about this matter in advance. And her analysis was similar to what Li Gongan said.

Zhang Wei looked at Su Tianli with a shocked expression as if to say, "Wow, you can even guess this."

Su Tianli pursed her lips.

—because she’d dealt with similar things on the farm before.

So she had already told Zhang Wei that it was unrealistic to fight back against Fu Yan for attacking Cheng Yu. The best thing was to make a big fuss and use public opinion to force Fu Yan to increase the compensation and get more compensation for Cheng Yu...

After Li Gongan left, Su Tianli asked Zhang Wei to buy food, while she went to the nurses' station to ask a nurse to come and take care of Cheng Yu.

However, considering that the Provincial Hospital is not far from where she lives now, and that Old Mrs. Su also eats hospital meals at home every day, Su Tianli hired a male nurse this time. The nurse is only responsible for three time periods: morning, afternoon, and evening. Each time, he takes care of Cheng Yu for one hour, mainly taking care of things like going to the toilet, wiping his body, and feeding him medicine.

Of course, only half of the money was spent.

As for three meals a day, Su Tianli decided that everyone would take turns to deliver and feed Cheng Yu.

After settling these things, Su Tianli returned to the ward to have dinner with Old Lady Su and Zhang Wei.

Cheng Yu slept for a while and then woke up.

Su Tianli urged Zhang Wei to feed Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu was very obedient, eating every bite he was fed;

But Zhang Wei...

Not as careful as girls.

He fed Cheng Yu with a spoon, and just used the spoon to scoop out the food in the lunch box. He fed him rice when he scooped up rice, and fed him vegetables when he scooped up vegetables, without caring about the combination of rice and vegetables.

Moreover, each spoonful of rice or vegetables was piled so high that Cheng Yu couldn't open his mouth that wide.

After feeding him a few mouthfuls, the front of Cheng Yu's clothes was stained with oil.

Su Tianli held her forehead and called on Old Lady Su to feed Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu was still very well behaved and ate whatever was given to him.

But Old Lady Su was old, and her hands were shaking badly. Every time she scooped a spoonful of food and brought it to Cheng Yu's mouth, Cheng Yu just opened his mouth wide...

Old Mrs. Su's hand shook and the food in the spoon fell out!

Su Tianli closed her eyes, snatched the lunch box and spoon, and fed Cheng Yu herself.

Each spoonful should be served with 80% rice and 20% vegetables.

Cheng Yu eats fast and well-behaved.

Feed him four or five spoonfuls of rice, and a mouthful of steamed egg to moisten his stomach...

Cheng Yu had been hospitalized for a few days, and now he could speak relatively coherent short sentences. But he still couldn't speak more complex sentences, and he was not in good spirits, and he felt sleepy and tired easily.

However, his complexion had improved a lot, and although his eyes were still unable to focus, they were no longer as lifeless as before.

His eyes were clear and bright, and although he couldn't close them completely, he could blink slightly.

He kept blinking, blinking, and blinking again...

The thick and long eyelashes opened and closed gently and slowly like a fan.

Old Lady Su couldn't help but ask him, "Cheng Yu, why do you always blink? Are your eyes uncomfortable?"

Cheng Yu swallowed all the food in his mouth before answering, "Grandma, I... am practicing closing my eyes."

Old Mrs. Su felt distressed. "It's terrible. He can't close his eyes at such a young age..."

Su Tianli couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Cheng Yu also laughed.

Then two shallow dimples appeared at the corners of his mouth.

I have to say, this thing is really beautiful.

He smiled like this,

Su Tianli suddenly felt her heart beating like a drum.

It took a long time for Su Tianli to suppress the throbbing in her heart.

Pretending nothing happened, he continued to feed Cheng Yu.

However, she felt it was very strange - she had been in Farm 109 for five years. The ratio of men to women in Farm 109 was 9:1, and she had seen many different kinds of young men, including muscular men, elegant men, etc.

Su Tianli even thought at one point that she might have become immune to the young man's appearance.

But I didn't expect that

Cheng Yu was still ill, but he could make her heart flutter just by his face? !

Su Tianli sighed.

Before I knew it, both boxes of rice were finished.

Su Tianli carefully fed Cheng Yu some water to rinse his mouth, and at the end she did not forget to wipe his mouth with a towel...

When Su Tianli and Zhang Wei brought Old Mrs. Su back home.

Mao Li and A Juan are already very busy.

Since yesterday's mission went smoothly,

Ajuan is much braver today!

Plus, Su Tianli gave me a lot of money for buying groceries today.

So Ajuan bought a lot of things today.

I bought five pounds of kelp and mushrooms, and some radish, lotus root, and tofu.

Then I also bought a bag of glutinous rice, a bag of flour, a bag of soybeans, ten pounds of sweet potatoes and two pounds of peanuts, and some miscellaneous items.

Ajuan even weighed back two pounds of pork belly!

At this moment, kelp and mushrooms are being stewed on the stove.

Ajuan was cutting bamboo sticks in the yard.

Mao Li was busy in the living room.

Su Tianli asked Mao Li curiously, "Ali, what are you doing?"

Mao Li smiled and said, "I'm making scallion pancakes!"

As soon as she finished speaking——

Zhang Wei was excited. "Scallion pancake? That's great! I haven't eaten it for a long time... But we don't have a pan that big, right?"

Mao Li smiled and said, "Then make a small scallion pancake!"

"Let me help you!" As he said that, Zhang Wei ran to wash his hands.

Su Tianli watched the young couple working together in perfect harmony:

Zhang Wei and the dough,

Mao Li sprinkled salt on a large bowl of chopped green onions. After letting it sit for a while, she squeezed out the moisture from the chopped green onions with both hands. She then poured the chopped green onions into the half-kneaded dough by Zhang Wei, and added a little oil and five-spice powder.

Zhang Wei finally kneaded the dough. After kneading it into long strips, the young couple discussed and cut the long strips into suitable pieces, which they then rolled into pancakes with a rolling pin.

Their kangbing is also quite interesting.

——Ajuan bought a piece of pork belly, and Mao Li cut off the fattiest piece and threw it into the iron pan first. When the fat began to ooze out a little bit of oil, she immediately pierced the fat with chopsticks, rubbed the inner wall of the iron pan with the fat, and then threw the small pancake into the pan.

Use medium heat throughout the process. One pot can hold about seven pancakes, and they will be ready in about twenty minutes.

Of course, all seven pancakes from the first pot fell into everyone's mouth.

Su Tianli also ate the fragrant scallion pancake and thought it was so delicious!

——The pancake is very thin, and the best taste is crispy! It is just as crispy as a biscuit. The salt content of scallion pancake is not high, but it is precisely because it is not too salty that it perfectly highlights the rich and refreshing scallion fragrance and the strong wheat aroma.

The lard content is lower, and the five-spice powder is not much, but it adds just the right amount of flavor to the pancake!

Mao Li looked at Su Tianli expectantly and asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Su Tianli nodded repeatedly and laughed, "Who would dare to believe that two Guangzhou natives made scallion pancakes like this!"

——Cantonese scallion pancakes require leavening, and are lightly sweet, lightly salted, and slightly burnt on the surface.

But the scallion pancakes made by Mao Li and Zhang Wei have a very distinctive Jiangxi flavor.

Hearing this, Mao Li and Zhang Wei smiled helplessly.

Mao Li sighed, "I can't help it. After working on the farm for a few years, I can hardly speak Mandarin anymore! My eating habits have also completely changed!"

Zhang Wei smiled and said, "It doesn't matter."

Su Tianli's feelings must be even deeper than theirs.

You know, in such a huge Farm 109, she is the only Cantonese person.

There were a few Cantonese people in the nearby farms and the nearby border garrison, but their total number was less than the size of a hand. Moreover, one of them was a Chaoshan boy, one was a Hakka girl, and one was a young man from western Guangdong, and they could not speak the same language as Su Tianli.

Every year during the Spring Festival Gala, May 1st and May 4th Party, and New Year's Day Gala,

The friends on the farm all strongly requested Su Tianli to go on stage and perform for everyone - they just wanted to hear Su Tianli sing a Cantonese nursery rhyme. After she finished singing, everyone asked Su Tianli to write the lyrics on a big character poster and insisted that she teach them to sing...

Therefore, after Su Tianli arrived in the Northwest, she lived alone for a long time. Not only did her eating habits completely change, but she had also forgotten many of Guangdong's local customs.

A Juan happily finished a scallion pancake, took another one, and asked Su Tianli, "Second sister, how much is this scallion pancake?"

Su Tianli came back to her senses, thought for a moment, and said, "Eight cents each, 15 cents for two...what do you think?"

Mao Li asked in surprise: "Lizhi, do you really want to set such a high price? This pound of flour is 15 cents with a ticket, and 20 cents without a ticket. I don't have a ticket, so I bought 50 pounds and spent 10 yuan. Here are 10 pounds of flour... Let me count it."

After counting for a while, she said happily: "There are nearly 200 cakes here... two cakes are 15 cents, if we can sell them all, then..."

Zhang Wei took over the topic, "...That's thirty yuan!"

Mao Li said happily: "My one bag of flour only costs ten yuan! This is only one-fifth of the flour!"

A Juan said, "Sister Ali, you can't calculate it this way! The onions cost money! The pork, salt, five-spice powder, and even the cost of the coal briquettes... all these costs must be taken into account! Also, we may not be able to sell all of them today... these are all costs!"

Mao Li got anxious when she heard this. "I accept the cost you mentioned! But why did you say I might not be able to sell it? This scallion pancake is obviously delicious!"

Zhang Wei was also unhappy, "Yeah, this scallion pancake is obviously delicious."

A Juan said: "But Guangzhou people eat everything except food that makes you angry!"

Zhang Wei: …

Mao Li was instantly deflated. "I am a Guangzhou native myself! How could I have forgotten this!"

Su Tianli smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a way!"

When everyone heard this, they immediately asked, "What's the solution?"

"Buy two scallion pancakes and get a spoonful of mung bean syrup for free!" said Su Tianli.

Zhang Wei nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes! Mung bean soup is refreshing and can reduce internal heat!"

After a while, Mao Li chuckled, "To eat something that makes you get angry, and then eat something that helps you get rid of it!"

Old Mrs. Su was a little worried. "Is it a loss? Mung beans are not expensive. Even if you boil a bucket of mung bean water, at most two kilograms of mung beans are enough... The key is that it costs sugar!"

Ah Juan was also worried. "I want to take the mung bean water with me... but it's difficult! Unless I take the pot with me, there's nothing to put it in!"

Su Tianli smiled and said, "It's okay!"

"It is only after practice that we know the shortcomings, and then we can gradually improve it!"

"Juan, didn't I take out a notebook specifically for this? Please write it down. We need a bucket with a lid..."

"Grandma, don't be reluctant to give up the sugar! You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb! We can still sell mung bean water separately, two cents a spoonful. If you buy two scallion pancakes, you can get a spoonful of mung bean water for free."

Mao Li thought about it carefully and said, "Hey, I think Lizhi's trick is really good! Think about it, one scallion pancake costs 8 cents, and two are only 1.5 cents with a spoonful of mung bean water, which is about 3 cents cheaper!"

Zhang Wei also said: "Besides, you can spend 1.5 cents to buy two cakes and a spoonful of mung bean water, and you can eat your fill."

After hearing what Su Tianli said, Ajuan took a pen and wrote in her notebook:

[A bucket with a lid is needed to make mung bean syrup]

After thinking about it, Ajuan added another line: [It would be better to have an extra bicycle, because one bicycle cannot accommodate four people. ]

At this time, Su Tianli was already explaining to Grandma Su, "Grandma, don't feel bad about spending money on candy. Who knows, this most inconspicuous mung bean soup might be the most popular one!"

Old Mrs. Su was still worried, "But we don't have cups to put it in..."

Anyway, everyone got busy.

Mao Li and Zhang Wei cooperated with each other, one rolled the pancakes and the other baked them on the stove;

Ajuan continued to cut bamboo sticks. Because there were not enough bamboos, she ran out to cut a few bamboos and brought them back. She even sawed off the bamboo stems and made them into bamboo cups to serve as containers for the mung bean soup at the night market tonight.

Grandma was busy in the kitchen sorting out the braised food and cutting kelp, radish, lotus root, etc. into appropriate sizes.

Su Tianli ran out to buy white sugar and mung beans.

As a result, as soon as she walked out of the yard, she met Yao Meiyu who was pushing a bicycle into the gate!

"Ayu, you're here?"

Yao Meiyu stared at Su Tianli with eyes wide open, "Where are you going? Why did you leave as soon as I arrived?"

Su Tianli, "Come on, come on! Go shopping with me!"

Upon hearing this, Yao Meiyu immediately turned her bicycle around and asked, "What do you want to buy?"

“Buy mung beans and white sugar, and make mung bean soup!”

Yao Meiyu is actually a very simple-minded person.

So Su Tianli quickly realized that Yao Meiyu seemed a little unhappy.

"Ayu, what's wrong with you?" Su Tianli asked.

Yao Meiyu snorted with red eyes, twisted her neck to the side, raised her head stubbornly, and said with a sob: "I never, ever, ever want to talk to my brother again!"

"Did you have a fight with your brother? Why did you fight?" Su Tianli asked.

Yao Meiyu spoke angrily.

To put it bluntly, the story is cliché.

It's a story about a beautiful, rich woman who falls in love with a gangster, but their families break up the couple.

Yes, it’s about Yao Meiyu’s boyfriend Du Junheng.

Du Junheng's home is in Tongya Village, not far from the health center.

Yao Meiyu's father is the head of the financial department of a chemical plant. His administrative level is deputy director, which is on par with the director of the chemical plant.

Her mother works in the Health Bureau and is also a section chief;

Her brother is also a technical backbone of the chemical plant, and her sister-in-law is her mother's subordinate and also works in the Health Bureau.

Look at this family!

In the eyes of local people, Yao Meiyu is a typical fair, wealthy and beautiful woman.

But what about Du Junheng?

In the words of Yao Meiyu's brother, he is a street urchin who didn't even finish elementary school!

Yao Meiyu and Du Junheng met in the health center.

——Du Junheng got into a fight with villagers from the same village and was injured. After he was sent to the hospital, his family members never took care of him.

At that time, Yao Meiyu had just transferred from the Municipal People's Hospital to the Health Center. Because she was in the probation period, she worked very hard. The nurse Du Junheng was also very attentive.

In addition, Du Junheng is quite handsome and sweet-mouthed, calling Yao Meiyu "sister" all the time...

The girl soon fell.

but!

Director Tang of the health center is Yao Ma's best friend.

As soon as he realized that Yao Meiyu had secretly run out to play with Du Junheng under the pretext of working overtime,

There was an earthquake in the Yao family!

Yao Meiyu is well-behaved and docile, and is the favorite of the whole family. Her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law all love her very much.

No matter how much Yao's father and mother disagreed, they just tried to reason with Yao Meiyu earnestly;

But Yao Meiyu's brother was different. He directly forced Yao Meiyu to break up with Du Junheng. Yao Meiyu disagreed and even argued with her brother...

Just half an hour ago, her brother was so mad at her that he beat Yao Meiyu with a feather duster.

Yao Meiyu was so angry that she ran away from home.

At this point, Yao Meiyu stretched out her arm with tears in her eyes for Su Tianli to see, "Here, right here - Lizhi, look! My arm has been beaten red!"

Su Tianli took a look.

Um?

The girl's arms are white and clean, with nothing on them?

Yao Meiyu was also stunned and quickly explained, "Ah? Where's the mark? Hey, the mark... is gone! Lizhi, you have to believe me, he hit me so hard that time!"

Su Tianli held back her laughter and nodded quickly to show her understanding.

Su Tianli saw how the Yao family spoiled their daughter and was envious.

So she knew that even if Brother Yao was angry, he would definitely not be able to bear to beat up his sister...

However, you must give face to your best friend.

"Yes, why is your brother like this!" Su Tianli shared the same hatred for the enemy.

As they were talking, the two of them walked to the supply and marketing cooperative.

Shaou Street is currently a well-managed and high-end area.

Want to find the black market here?

That's impossible.

But mung beans and white sugar were needed urgently, so Su Tianli had to find a scalper to buy five kilograms of sugar coupons and five kilograms of miscellaneous grain coupons before entering the supply and marketing cooperative.

After buying the white sugar and mung beans, Su Tianli felt so heartbroken.

Next, Su Tianli carried the white sugar and mung beans, sat on the back of Yao Meiyu's bicycle, and went home.

As soon as they entered the yard, Su Tianli urged Yao Meiyu, "Go to the reception room and borrow a phone to call your dad! Tell your dad that you are safe and that you are not going home tonight... Sleep with me and come home tomorrow!"

Yao Meiyu nodded and asked her, "Lychee, are we going to Dadadi to buy green beans and sugar tonight? But I was in a hurry to leave today and I don't have any money with me."

Su Tianli pursed her lips and smiled, "We are indeed going to Dadadi tonight, but we are not going to buy things, we are going to set up a stall to make money."

When Yao Meiyu heard this, her eyes lit up, "I want to go too!"

"Call now!"

"good!"

Yao Meiyu went to the message room to check her face.

She is well-behaved, well-dressed, and sweet-spoken. She always says hello, "Uncle." "I want to borrow the phone to call my father. My father is the head of the finance department of the chemical plant. Is it okay?"

It was hard for the security guard to refuse.

However, after Yao Meiyu told the truth on the phone, Yao Xingang on the other end of the phone was probably afraid that his daughter was lying about going on a date with that street urchin again, so he insisted that he had something to talk to Su Tianli about and asked his daughter to pass the phone to Su Tianli.

Yao Meiyu was not a fool, so how could she not understand what her father meant? She stamped her feet in anger and handed the microphone to Su Tianli with a pout.

Su Tianli answered the phone and greeted him generously, "Hello, Uncle Yao. Don't worry, A-Yu is with me. We are going to set up a stall to sell snacks tonight, so it's a good opportunity to take A-Yu with us to relax for a while." What? Safe? Oh, don't worry, it's not just A-Yu and me, there are also our other classmates Mao Li and Zhang Wei, we are quite a lot, don't worry! Yes, A-Yu will go back tomorrow.

After finishing the phone call, Su Tianli took Yao Meiyu back home.

As soon as Yao Meiyu saw the various braised dishes on display at home and the scallion pancakes cooked by Mao Li and Zhang Wei, she was so happy... She had already thrown the idea of ​​whether she had a boyfriend or not out of the window.

She tried the braised food, tried the scallion pancakes, helped Ajuan cook the skewers, and helped Grandma skewer the skewers...

Su Tianli smiled.

Yesterday, Su Tianli and A Juan arrived at Qiandadi at around nine o'clock in the evening.

Today we decided to go out early.

Su Tianli originally wanted to send Yao Meiyu to the Provincial Hospital to deliver food to Cheng Yu, but Yao Meiyu refused to go and insisted on staying to play... Oh no, not to play, but to work.

Su Tianli had no choice but to ride her bike to the Provincial Hospital to feed Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu is still the same.

He is very quiet and very well behaved...

No matter what Su Tianli fed him, he ate it with relish.

In addition, his face gave Su Tianli an unspeakable temptation.

Therefore, Su Tianli felt that feeding him was also a pleasure.

but!

No matter how handsome a man is,

It’s not as important as making money!

After Su Tianli fed Cheng Yu, she washed the towel as usual, wiped Cheng Yu's face and hands, said something to him, and left in a hurry.

By the time Su Tianli returned home riding Yao Meiyu's bicycle, Zhang Wei, Mao Li and A Juan had already set off with some food!

Su Tianli was surprised. "Three of them riding on one bike, and carrying such heavy things?"

Yao Meiyu explained, "Zhang Wei rode the bike, Ali sat on the front bar, and your sister sat on the back seat. There was a shoulder pole hanging on the back seat, with a basket on each end of the pole, and your sister carried a big bag on her back..."

Su Tianli held her forehead with her hand.

Yao Meiyu urged her, "Hurry up! Let's hurry up, Litchi."

In this way, Su Tianli rode the bike, Yao Meiyu sat on the back seat holding a pot of mung bean soup, and a bamboo basket on her arm, and the two of them drove quickly towards the Dadadi night market.

Su Yao and his friend arrived at their destination before five in the afternoon.

Sure enough, at the night market which was about to fall in the evening, there were not too many people, but there were definitely not too few people either.

Ajuan and her friends arrived earlier and had already occupied their seats.

Su Tianli and Yao Meiyu struggled to carry down the pot of mung bean soup.

Mao Li took the bamboo basket, spread a piece of white cloth in it, and then took one of each of the food on the stall and put it in the basket. There were various skewers, scallion pancakes, and a bowl of mung bean water...

It looks quite rich.

It just so happened that the brother who was selling wontons yesterday had his stall next to Su Tianli's skewers stall.

His cart was a table, with eight or nine small stools placed around it, and a coal stove and a pot on the front...

However, he was setting up the stall alone.

Ajuan recognized him and had been chatting with him for a while.

When Su Tianli heard Ajuan calling him Brother Wang, she also called him Brother Wang and took out a scallion pancake for Brother Wang to eat.

Then Su Tianli cleared her throat and took the lead in shouting, "Braised skewers! Braised tofu and braised kelp for 2 cents a skewer! Cheap and delicious! Economical and affordable!"

"Scallion pancakes! Crispy and fragrant scallion pancakes! 8 cents each! Two scallion pancakes for only 15 cents! And a cup of sweet and fragrant kelp and mung bean soup is also included!"

"Mung bean soup is 2 cents a cup!"

As soon as Su Tianli shouted, Yao Meiyu also started shouting, and even Ajuan, Mao Li and Zhang Wei followed suit.

Most of the people setting up stalls at the scene were alone, or couples, mother and son, or father and daughter, and they had no time to shout. There was no small stall like Su Tianli's, which had five young men and women, and everyone was shouting and hawking their goods.

As the noise became so loud, it quickly attracted many curious diners to come and look around.

The same thing.

The snacks at Su Tianli’s stall win by their prices.

In a market where people can eat a full meal for 20 cents and a good meal for 30 cents,

There are no snacks in her stall that cost more than ten cents each!

It is something that everyone can consume.

Another thing: Dadadi Night Market is aimed at local people in Guangzhou. The food and snacks sold in the night market are basically traditional snacks from Guangzhou. But the skewers and scallion pancakes made by Su Tianli and her friends are food from other provinces. The locals are still very curious, and soon some people come to ask questions and are eager to try.

After hearing Su Tianli speaking fluent local dialect, everyone was even more puzzled: Why are you, a local, so good at making scallion pancakes that are popular with people from other provinces?

Su Tianli did not shy away from telling everyone directly that she and her friends were educated youth who had returned to the city. As it was difficult to find a job and they had to make a living, they had no choice but to set up a stall here to tide them over temporarily.

Everyone felt empathy immediately.

Eat these skewers again...

The taste is very good!

Scallion pancakes are very irritating, but if you buy two pancakes, you can get a spoonful of mung bean soup for free... It's okay to eat something that makes you irritated once in a while! What's more, mung bean soup is refreshing and can reduce internal heat!

In this way, the business of the stall became better and better.

Ajuan, Mao Li and Zhang Wei were responsible for selling things, Su Tianli was responsible for collecting money and giving change, and Yao Meiyu was responsible for hawking.

Everyone performs their duties and cooperates better and better.

Among them, Yao Meiyu was the happiest.

She had nothing to be embarrassed about and was shouting loudly.

Sudden--

Su Tianli saw an acquaintance.

The people who came were Yao Meiyu's parents, brother and sister-in-law!

I think it was because her brother beat her during the day, and the whole family was a little worried, so they rushed to Dadadi. One reason was that they were worried about their daughter's safety, and the other was that they wanted to repair their relationship.

Su Tianli waved to the Yao family.

Yao's father and mother smiled awkwardly at Su Tianli and walked over here;

Brother Yao was standing far away, and Mrs. Yao reached out to pull him, trying to pull him over to the stall... Brother Yao stared at Yao Meiyu with an angry face for a while, then turned his head away.

But in the end, he was pushed over by his wife.

Su Tianli was quite envious of Yao Meiyu.

She nudged Yao Meiyu with her elbow and whispered, "Your family is here."

Yao Meiyu paused, and looked in the direction Su Tianli pointed, and saw her parents at a glance.

But before she could react,

Someone suddenly shouted, "Sister, be careful!"

Su Tianli turned around and saw that it was Brother Wang from the wonton stall next door.

Because there was only Brother Wang at the wonton stall, he was the one who collected and gave change, cooked the wontons, and washed the dishes.

So Su Tianli will help him.

When diners walked by and looked at the wontons, Su Tianli would help Brother Wang to attract customers;

While Brother Wang was busy cooking wontons, Su Tianli helped him collect money and make change;

While Brother Wang was busy washing dishes, Su Tianli helped him greet the guests...

Brother Wang always had a smile on his face.

Until this moment, Brother Wang could no longer laugh.

He said to Su Tianli, "Sister, the people who collect protection fees are here... They are all street urchins around here, and they have been collecting protection fees here."

"You are strangers, so you will definitely be charged protection fees. Each stall charges 50 cents a night as protection fee. Don't argue with them. Harmony brings wealth, you know?" Brother Wang said anxiously.

Su Tianli thought: This is really happening!

Just like that, a few ruffian-looking young men came over.

Brother Wang didn't say much, he just took out fifty cents and handed it over.

The other party accepted it.

Then these young men walked to Su Tianli's skewer stall.

The leading young man took a look at Su Tianli, was stunned, looked her up and down, and asked in plastic Mandarin: "You...are you new here? I haven't seen you before!"

Su Tianli said loudly in pure Cantonese: "I am from Guangzhou just like you."

The young man has not come to answer yet.

Su Tianli heard Yao Meiyu beside her yell, "Du Junheng!"

The young man shuddered with fear.
