Su Li put away the stir-fried hot pot ingredients and made a mushroom chicken soup.
In the evening, Su Li set up two tables of food, using charcoal copper stove hot pot. The children's table had mushroom chicken soup, and the adults' table had two pots, one spicy and one chicken soup.
Put the condiments aside and anyone can add whatever they want.
Xie Zhenghe's family, Xie Zhengyang's family, and Su Hai and his wife all came. When serving the dishes, no one else did much. Xie Zhengyang took the lead and served one batch after another.
Although he had never eaten this kind of hotpot, he knew it must be delicious just by smelling it, with butter and chicken soup. However, when he saw the table was full of lettuce, raw meat, duck intestines, tripe, braised pig intestines, etc., he felt a little hesitant to eat it.
Looking at the duck intestines piled up one by one, he felt a little scared.
Su Li helped the children prepare the dipping sauce, which was slightly spicy and added with sesame paste.
However, Li Dan and Tie Dan both like spicy food. These two boys can eat spicy food better. Su Li made a dipping sauce and picked up her own bowl and said, "Look, second brother, after the hot soup in the pot boils, make a dipping sauce yourself and add whatever you want to the dishes on the table. Also, the meat is cut into thin slices, so it will cook easily when put into the pot."
He picked up a beef roll and put it into the spicy pot. After a while, he took it out, dipped it in the dipping sauce bowl, and then put it into his mouth and ate it. Su Li chewed the beef in his mouth, the taste was so delicious that he ate it with great pleasure.
The others watched Su Li teaching while eating, and saw her eating like a kitten, feeling extremely comfortable.
They also started eating.
Xie Zhengyang couldn't help it first, so he picked up a few pieces of what he wanted to eat and put them in. He waited for the dishes in front of him to slowly cook, then hurriedly picked them up and put them in his bowl. After cooking, he quickly put them in his mouth, chewed a bite, and his eyes suddenly widened.
"Tai Tu, eat this. Oh, hurry up, hurry up, add more vegetables, oh, put more meat, wife, try it quickly, don't worry about Ping An for now, hurry up."
Xia Xiuzi held Ping'an tightly and refused to let go. Now Ping'an was ready to eat, but his body was unstable and he was addicted to food. Xia Xiuzhi couldn't catch him and couldn't eat at all.
Xie's mother looked at her son eating and felt disgusted. She put down her chopsticks and went to pull Ping An.
"Second brother, you eat first. When you're done, I'll take over. I'll take care of Ping An."
Xia Xiuzhi watched as Xie's mother bent over and pulled Ping An to play nearby. "Mom, no need. You eat first. I'm not hungry. This kid is very naughty. It's tiring for you to bend over and pull him."
"No, eat quickly. I'm kissing my grandson."
As she said this, Ping An was taken away to play. Xia Xiuzhi felt very sweet looking at her mother-in-law. But when she turned around and saw her husband waving his chopsticks with his mouth full, she rolled her eyes at him.
After Xia Xiuzhi sat down, Xie Zhengyang put the boiled meat dishes in front of her, "Eat quickly, wife. I'm almost done. I'm going to go see the kids first. Let me eat instead. You guys eat slowly. Hehehe, after you guys finish eating, I'll come and clean up. Hehehe..."
As he spoke, he stood up and stuffed another piece of meat into his mouth. After putting down his chopsticks, he walked towards Xie's mother.
Su Hai and Guo Rumei were also eating enthusiastically.
"Taitung ate this, if he opened a shop, he would definitely make money!"
"Yes, Dahai, you have to follow me and learn how to stir-fry the ingredients."
"Well, don't worry!"
Su Li took a sip of water and said, "Second brother, what do you think about opening a store?"
Su Hai put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "You can eat hot pot if you want. If it sells well, it will definitely be popular. But it will be troublesome to serve the dishes one by one. It will require a lot of plates. When customers order, they have to take the dishes separately. It will be very troublesome. At the beginning, I don't want to hire so many people. The cost is too high."
Su Li nodded and said, "Second brother, you can hire two maids to wash and cut the vegetables, and then make some bamboo sticks to string the vegetables together. Set up a display stand to put the vegetables and meat. Customers can take whatever they want to eat, and just count the bamboo sticks when they pay. Different dishes can have different prices. For example, vegetables can be one cent each, which is the color of the bamboo stick. If fried meatballs are two cents or three cents, add a color to the bamboo sticks. If it's meat, change the color to something else."
Su Hai's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Yes, little sister, you are really smart. Just do it this way. I can help do it myself."
Guo Rumei looked at Su Li with gratitude in her heart. The shop in the county town was bought by her sister-in-law. Although she and Su Hai did not accept her sister-in-law's suggestion to transfer the house to their name, the shop was given to them for use without rent, and the shop would be sold directly to them when they were able to buy a house.
Guo Rumei and Su Hai thought that if they had the ability, they would make a name for themselves, but if they didn't, they would squander it all even if they were given mountains of gold and silver.
The children were enjoying the hotpot with their mouths full of oil. Lai Fu was eating while picking up dishes for Xiaogang, Xiangzhi and Xianglan, and also taking care of Xiaoqin and Xiaofang who were nearby.
Li Dan and Tie Dan also followed suit and took care of Hu Zi, Shi Tou and Bao Ya in the same way.
Everyone was happy and relaxed during the hotpot meal.
The days passed slowly.
The cannery in the county town is basically ready, but there is something stuck in the industrial and commercial procedures. Without these procedures, they cannot officially start production.
It has been delayed for almost a week. Fortunately, the water Su Li transported there before was not much, otherwise it would have been spoiled even in the cold weather.
Suzhou and Su Lie almost broke their legs because of this.
I don’t know how Wu Yanhong found out about this, but she later told Old Lady Wu.
"Why, I was right, wasn't it? It's not that easy to do. Fortunately, you listened to me and didn't follow my lead, otherwise you would be so out of your luck that you wouldn't even have a place to live. Your sister-in-law is selfish and nosy. People in the city are so rude. I would say they are not as lucky as my daughter."
Wu Yanhong also breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know why. Although she called Suzhou and Su Lie "brother", this was not something her husband would do. Her sister-in-law turned to her third and fourth brothers. If they did it, wouldn't it prove that they were incompetent?
They are now city dwellers, and she and Su Huai both have jobs, which are different from before. She heard people in the factory talking about the possibility of a promotion tomorrow. This is a stable job, and fortunately she did not quit, otherwise such a good opportunity for promotion would have been lost.
She was envious of her sister-in-law who made a lot of money every month, but business is not that easy to do. Look, the third and fourth brothers want to start a cannery, but this procedure will hold them back.
Still thinking about making money, how is that possible?
If you ask her, her sisters-in-law have earned a lot of money working in the factory, so why do they have to make such a fuss?
The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and then Wu Yanhong stood up, humming a little tune and started cooking.
She bought some meat today, thinking of making some chicken soup to nourish the bodies of everyone in her family.
