Chapter 46: I almost doubt my life!
"Don't say it!" Mingrui scolded her sister in a low voice.
After saying that, he gave Ming Xi another warning look and released his hand.
Shi Xiaoai breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as she was about to say something, Mingrui had left his sister's side and pulled her sleeves hard.
The child couldn't help but shout in a low voice while pulling: "Mom, Mom, let me tell you."
Seeing him so happy, the smile on Shi Xiaoai's lips deepened.
She bent down and put her ear close to Mingrui.
The little guy immediately came over and said softly: "Mom, We sold it for a lot of money, so...a lot!"
As he spoke, he spread his arms to the maximum limit.
Seeing her brother like this, Ming Xi rolled her eyes without concealing it, then pushed him away, leaned over, and said into Shi Xiaoai's ear: "Mom, We sold it for twelve yuan! Twelve yuan!"
This number was almost what Shi Xiaoai expected, and she was unsurprised. But her daughter's words startled Cheng Yang next to her.
"How did you know?" He came over and asked with a shocked look on his face.
"I counted them." Ming Xi's face was full of pride.
"Did you count?" Cheng Yang almost doubted his life.
You must know that people were coming and going just now, and everyone was carrying hot tea.
He feared the two children would be in danger by running around in the shed, so he especially led them to sit in the innermost corner, strictly prohibiting them from moving.
How do you count Mingxi at such a distance?
Mingxi didn't care what her father thought and proudly showed off: "I watched you when you counted the money. I know all the money, and I can count it clearly!"
In addition to counting clearly, can she also add up?
You must know that after selling so much, most people spent only 12 cents at most, and the most expensive person spent less than 50 cents.
She can remember so many and add them together to figure out the total!
Cheng Yang stared at his daughter, unable to remember how old she was for a moment. He tried to recall what he was like when he was a child, but he couldn't imagine that he had such a talent.
This is like her mother.
So, did they give birth to a child prodigy?
Seeing Cheng Yang's expression as if he had seen a ghost, Shi Xiaoai couldn't help but burst into laughter.
She patted the man on the shoulder and said jokingly: "Did you see that? Don't think about playing tricks. Someone is supervising for me!" Before Cheng Yang could reply, Mingxi had already begun to nod vigorously in agreement, and he also wanted to know if she understood what it meant.
Seeing the mother and daughter's identical arrogant expressions, Cheng Yang couldn't laugh or cry.
"Okay, let's work first. If we have anything to say, we can discuss it when we get home." Shi Xiaoai stretched out her hand and pressed on the two children's heads, indicating they should return and finish the work. Then she and Cheng Yang put the steamed buns and side dishes on the table. Put it out. As soon as it was set up, a new customer came in. The person who came in was a middle-aged woman, probably in her early forties. She was dressed but well-groomed and clean. Her family background was good.
Shi Xiaoai smiled at her and greeted her loudly: "Sister-in-law, do you want tea or something to eat? It's cold outside. Come and sit inside. There are seats inside." The sister-in-law walked to the table, a little hesitant. She looked at the fires next to them and then asked: "I heard you have white flour pancakes; how do you sell them? Give me two." "Sister-in-law, you mean stone buns, right? That one is sold out. It's coming soon." It will only be available again in the afternoon. But we have newly launched steamed buns and rolls here. Would you like to buy two and take them home to try?
Are you buying them for patients? Come and look at the dishes we have here, scrambled eggs with yellow flowers and fungus, shredded potatoes, carrots... Look at these eggs; they are fresh and big, guaranteed to be rich in nutrients!"
Shi Xiaoai said as she opened the lids of the vegetable pots one by one, and the fragrant aroma suddenly burst out.
The sour aroma of the shredded potatoes in vinegar, the sweetness of the carrots braised in oil, and the most eye-catching thing is the golden slice on top of the scrambled eggs with yellow flowers and fungus.
Several people who followed in also raised their heads and looked at it. I don't know who sighed: "Oh, there are a lot of eggs!" The
sister-in-law also looked happy when she looked at the eggs.
She immediately asked: "How do you sell this cabbage? How much does it cost per piece?"
"One tael of food stamps costs 20 cents each."
"I asked about it before I came here. Didn't it cost 1 tael of food stamps and 10 cents each? What now? Is it so expensive? Didn't you charge a high price because you thought I wanted to buy it?" The sister-in-law immediately expressed her dissatisfaction.
"The original flavored stone buns cost 10 cents each, while the milk-flavored and scallion-flavored ones cost 15 cents each." Shi Xiaoai didn't get angry and explained patiently. She pointed to a cardboard on the trolley and motioned to Cheng Yang to take it out and hang it at the door.
Then she continued: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, the price is the same for everyone, I won't lie to you." "
Only then did Cheng Yang notice a cardboard tied with a rope in the car. He removed it and hung it on a small hook beside the tent door.
The cardboard was a price list that Shi Xiaoai had just written in his spare time. , in addition to marking the prices of tea and boiled water, it also clearly states the prices of stone buns, tea eggs, and baked buns and rolls.
Although this cardboard looks simple when hung up, it saves everyone the hassle of talking.
Although the price differed from the price the sister-in-law expected, she still couldn't resist the temptation when looking at the golden eggs and several other fried vegetables. She immediately decided to buy it.
She had something in mind. She continued to bargain, but just as the two of them were talking, several people were drinking tea inside, and the people who came in after her were already attracted by the newly served steamed buns and rolls. They all asked for help from Shi Xiaoai. They also rolled in a few.
Patients who could drink tea visited the hospital to see a doctor or their accompanying family members. Either they heard a stone bun coming here and wanted to try it, but they didn't make it and ended up eating tea eggs, or It's because you have to wait in line for a doctor for too long and come here to endure the time.
No matter which one, anyone who can stay here and still afford tea eggs will not be short of a cent or two. It's fresh when you see it. No matter what, I had to come over to get a share of the food.
Seeing many people gathered around, the sister-in-law did not dare to say anything, as if she was afraid that she would not be able to buy it if she was late, so she immediately paid for two.
Shi Xiaoai He helped her roll up the cake, wrapped it in oil paper, then thanked her politely and asked Mingrui, who came over to do something, to send her out. The sister-in-law, a little awkward initially, felt so polite after being greeted so politely. I felt much better immediately.
When I walked to the door, I didn't forget to shout to Mingrui: "Go back, go back, or your little face will freeze again." Hurry in, and I'll buy you some candies when Auntie returns! "
It could be seen that the sister-in-law was extremely satisfied with this kind of greeting.
It was already an hour later when Wang Xiaofeng rushed over with a basket of baked buns.
She hurried over, but when she was about to reach the place, she suddenly stopped.
Standing there looking confused.
She wondered if she had gone to the wrong place?
