The mother-in-law, who was in her forties, had an honest smile on her face, rubbed her hands and explained: "Our family has been making snacks for generations. I worked in the house of Prefect Peng for a while, but his family fell into decline..."

I bet this is the woman in charge of making snacks in Peng Shouliang's family. She came out because Peng Shouliang's family was in decline.

The rich families were worried that the mother-in-law would ruin their family's fortunes if she came out of the unlucky place of Peng Mansion, so they didn't want to invite her, so she pushed her cart along the street to sell snacks.

The mother-in-law was a down-to-earth person. As she spoke, she took out two large bags of snacks from the basket she was carrying and carefully wrapped them in a handkerchief. They were all freshly baked and came in various flavors.

"I made this. Madam Xiao, please try it and see if I can open a shop? Can I rent your shop?"

The mother-in-law said and pushed the snacks in front of Xiao Luoyi.

Xiao Luoyi looked at the exquisitely presented snacks, picked one up and took a bite. It tasted really good!

This mille-feuille pastry is not too sweet, melts in your mouth, and has a light fragrance.

Xiao Luoyi tasted several different flavors and couldn't help but nod his head: "It's delicious! It's really good! Huaiyu, Yingying, Yuerong, you guys should try it too..."

Qiao Yuerong grew up in the capital, and had eaten countless delicious snacks and fruits. After trying them, she nodded.

"Although it's not as good as the best dim sum chefs in the capital, in Yongzhou Prefecture, this one is considered unique!"

Not to mention Lu Yingying and Chen Huaiyu, two foodies who ate without saying a word.

After finishing the snacks, Xiao Luoyi looked at the honest-looking mother-in-law and said calmly.

"My building has three floors, and there are four shops below. If I rent one to you alone, the rent is not expensive, but the other three are not so easy to rent..."

The mother-in-law also knew this truth, and she smiled honestly: "I don't have that much money now. If you are willing, I am willing to rent the smallest shop in the back."

Xiao Luoyi pondered without saying anything, and his eyes fell on Chen Huaiyu.

Chen Huaiyu received the hint from the second sister-in-law and immediately stepped forward: "Aunt Hu, you made these snacks well. I also think they can be sold..."

"But it's not easy for the whole shop to work together. How about this, do you think it's feasible?"

Chen Huaiyu slowly talked about his thoughts: Because the shop is at the corner of the street and the sides are open, it looks like four shops from the side.

He plans to find some chefs who are also good at their craftsmanship to cook the food they are good at. The upstairs will be used to seat guests, and the downstairs will be used as a shop...

In a nutshell, Aunt Hu only needs to be responsible for making the snacks. When the time comes, she will settle the bill according to the number of snacks sold. As for the operation, she will leave it to Chen Huaiyu's people.

You can collect money without taking any risks. How could Aunt Hu not want to?

Aunt Hu nodded immediately: "Of course I am willing! Of course I am willing..."

When she mentioned this, Aunt Hu became excited: "At that time, there was a person who was good at making sugar water and two people who were good at cooking when I came out of Magistrate Peng's house. How about I ask them to come together?"

When Chen Huaiyu heard this, his eyes lit up: "It's done..."

Xiao Luoyi and Chen Huaijin watched quietly as Chen Huaiyu's eyes lit up, and he discussed with Aunt Hu clearly and asked Aunt Hu to find someone.

Zuo Qingshun felt warm in his heart when he heard this: If they want to complete this business, all kinds of tables, chairs and benches will be another business!

Leaving Chen Huaiyu and others in Fucheng to discuss business and letting Uncle Da be responsible for their safety, Xiao Luoyi and Chen Huaijin said goodbye and left for Nanzhao.

Facts have proved that it is indeed difficult to go out in heavy snow.

Just one day after leaving Yongzhou Prefecture, the road ahead was blocked by heavy snow!

The couple looked at several blocked cars in front of them and reluctantly prepared to pitch a tent on the spot.

But at this moment, the driver in front took a fancy to Chen Huaijin's tall and strong body and stepped forward to chat.

"This little brother, there is a village not far away. It's too cold to spend the night in the wild. Why don't we go to that village to stay overnight?" Upon hearing this, Chen Huaijin turned around and asked Xiao Luoyi in the carriage: "Madam What do you think?"

Xiao Luoyi held the little fox in his arms and counted with his fingers. There was no danger: "Okay."

Chen Huaijin then nodded towards the man.

The man was a social nerd. He introduced himself as Zhang Zhongxing, and took the initiative to contact the other two carriages, so the four carriages went to the village together.

The village is near the official road, there are many footprints, and there are really not many carriages passing by.

When the four carriages stumbled into the village, everyone in the village poked their heads out and stood in their yards to watch the excitement.

Zhang Zhongxing once again took the initiative to hand over his hand and said loudly: "Dear neighbors, I am passing by nearby. Because the official road is blocked by heavy snow, I want to come to the village to stay for one night. I want to ask who can spare a room? We will give it to you. Food and accommodation money.”

As soon as these words were said, everyone who had an empty house suddenly became excited: The New Year is approaching, who doesn't want to make some money to celebrate the New Year?

So a few families with empty rooms took the initiative to say, "I have an empty room at home!"

"I have a bed at home!"

"I have chicken and bacon at home..."

Zhang Zhongxing, Chen Huaijin and others followed the sound and finally picked three families to live in.

Zhang Zhongxing and Chen Huaijin chose the same house. The house had a large blue brick house and it looked very clean from the outside.

When the carriage stopped, Xiao Luoyi and the woman on Zhang Zhongxing's carriage got off the carriage at the same time. They were both shocked by the appearance of the other party.

What shocked the other party was: Xiao Luoyi is so beautiful!

What shocked Xiao Luoyi was: the other party was obviously a slim figure and a young woman, but there was a bruise and purple lump the size of an egg on her face. Not only did she look terrible, but she also had a faint evil aura!

Zhang Zhongxing carefully helped the other person get out of the car. When he saw Xiao Luoyi, although there was shock in his eyes, there was no greed in his eyes.

The owner of this house is Xie Chuanfu, and his wife, Mrs. Chen, wears coarse cotton clothes and keeps her home and body clean and tidy.

The couple are also in their thirties, and there are two elderly people in their fifties at home, both of whom have kind faces.

Xiao Luoyi could tell at a glance that this was a real family.

The young couple welcomed Mr. and Mrs. Xiao Luoyi and Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Zhongxing in with enthusiasm, and prepared to kill chickens to cook for them.

Because the Chinese New Year was approaching, they also prepared bacon and tofu, and when Xiao Luoyi and others arrived, they took them out.

Stir-fried bacon with winter bamboo shoots, tofu and egg soup, braised chicken... a whole table was set up!

Xiao Luoyi looked at the smiling family and proactively suggested to Chen Huaijin: "Mr. sir, let's have some drinks together?"

Chen Huaijin naturally would not refute, and agreed while going to the carriage to get the wine.

The sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed wine tastes sweet and delicious. Except for Zhang Zhongxing’s wife who didn’t drink because of the lump, everyone picked up their glasses.

After three drinks, everyone started chatting...
