Farmhouse cooks have space

Chapter 60 Keep Your Words

After a while, many people gathered in front of the stall, but most of them just watched the excitement and tried something new.

Only a small part of them paid for it, and all they bought were meat loaves, so the meat loaves soon bottomed out.

What she didn't know was that these few bought them with money, and the patriarch had said hello at noon to catch cicadas together at night.

One is to help support the business, and the other is because the money is about to be paid in at night, so I am willing to improve the food.

Seeing that there was only less than half a catty left, a young woman finally stood up from the crowd watching the excitement and said, "Give me the remaining two pennies."

He Miao raised his head and said, "I'm sorry, I have to save this meat loaf for the kids who yelled at us just now. This is the reward I promised them and I can't break my promise."

"It's just a few children, what do you care about them?"

He Miao shook his head solemnly and said, "To be a man, one must keep one's word. Since I have promised, I must keep my promise. Otherwise, it will be my fault if I teach them badly."

Speaking of this, he pointed to the jelly on the side and said: "You also tasted it just now, this jelly is also good, you can buy it for a catty for two cents."

"That's right, the more the child is, the more he can't be fooled, otherwise he will be in trouble if he learns badly." The patriarch came over at this time and said.

After finishing speaking, he took a special look at the woman who spoke before, and immediately shut up after realizing that it was the little widow of the Ma family in the village.

It's not that he's afraid of her, but that he doesn't want to get the reputation of bullying the widow.

Then he said to He Miao, "Give me two catties of jelly."

After finishing speaking, he handed four copper coins to He Miao.

"Then thank you, Grandpa, for supporting my business." He Miao was stunned for a moment, glanced at the people staring around, and finally honestly weighed two catties of jelly for the patriarch. Although he didn't add more, he weighed it high Yes, almost two taels more.

Widow Horse snorted coldly when she saw this, turned and walked away.

But other people saw that the patriarch bought it, and bought some back more or less.

After a while, there was only a little more than a catty of jelly left, and at this time Xiaodouzi also came back with a few children. Seeing that the bowl for the meatloaf was empty, the children immediately pulled their faces down.

Especially the kid who asked her about the taste of meat before, his little face pulled and he almost burst into tears.

He Miao was overjoyed when he saw this, and seeing that this kid was a snack, he immediately took out the meat loaf from the bowl and said, "Look, I'll give it to you if my sister told me to give it to you, hurry up and wash your hands." , you can eat it when you come back.”

"Let's go right away." The children immediately laughed when they saw this, and then rushed to the yard.

After distributing the meat loaf to several children and sending them away.

He Miao looked at the left over a catty of jelly and said to Xiaodouzi: "Let's close the stall too, and let's take the rest home and eat it by ourselves."

"Okay." Xiaodouzi nodded hurriedly.

After the siblings settled the stall, He Miao went to the kitchen to cook three bowls of rice porridge.

After the meal, He Miao and Xiaodouzi locked the door and went to the third grandpa's house with the oil lamp and bag.

Seeing the people waiting in the courtyard, He Miao asked the patriarch, "Have you all arrived?"

"It's all done, you and your brother are the only ones left."

"I kept the elders waiting for a long time, so let's set off now." He Miao responded, and saw that the crowd had no other preparations except carrying a cloth bag and an oil lamp.

He hurriedly turned his head and said: "There are a lot of snakes and insects at night, so everyone remember to pack your clothes and tie up your trouser legs."
