Chapter 29: 29

Gu Yin got up before dawn.

Mrs. Wang woke up earlier than her, and when Gu Yin got up, she had already set the stove on fire.

Seeing the eye bags, Gu Yin couldn’t help but persuade, “It’s still early, I can take care of everything by myself. If you’re really worried, I’ll call you to go with me when the booth is set up.”

“Don’t worry about me, let’s finish work, and I will naturally sleep soundly when we come back,” Mrs. Wang yawned and shook her head.

How could she sleep? She was in a daze and didn’t dare to close her eyes all night – when there were only seven taels left in the whole family, she felt so distressed. Later, she bought the ingredients and bought the utensils for the stall. It cost a total of three and a half, so it went to half.

At that time, she was driven by the words of her second sister-in-law’s daughter-in-law, but when she calmed down, she was afraid. If that transaction couldn’t be done, she really didn’t know what would happen to the family in future!

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both started to work together, and when the sky turned bright, they took things out of Jinyi Lane.

At that time, there were no boats docked at the pier, but the small vendors came one after another.

Mrs. Wang had come to inquire the day before. There were no rules for doing business there. Only at the end of the month, the yamen would come to collect the booth fee.

Of course, booths couldn’t be changed at any time. First-come, first-served. Those who come early could rent a good location closer to the wharf.

Like them, who had no foundation and couldn’t afford the transfer fee, naturally they could only choose a position that was not very cheap.

Pots and pans, low tables and benches were all open, and the small wonton stall had begun to open for business.

When the sky was bright, the pier was crowded with people, and the nearby shouts were overwhelmed, and Gu Yin added firewood and started to heat the pot.

The stall next to theirs sold Youtiao (fied sticks). The fried dough sticks made a crisp sound when they were placed in the pan, and the smell of oily smoke overwhelmed the smell of Gu Yin’s fish soup.

Of course, there were many people who saw that Gu Yin looked good and asked for the price, but her wontons weren’t particularly cheap—a bowl of wontons cost four cents, while other wonton stalls sold it for only three cents.

Most of them were coolies on the dock, and a penny was very important to them, so after half an hour, a total of five people came to ask them. They heard that the wontons were made of fish, and the price was a penny more than others, so there was some hesitation, only two people bought a bowl with money.

Gu Yin asked Mrs. Wang to buy an extra jar of vinegar and some garlic.

The garlic was minced by Gu Yin and placed in a small wooden bowl. Like vinegar, it could be added according to the guests’ taste.

One of the two guests put minced garlic and the other put a few spoons of vinegar, and they both finished the bowl quickly. Before leaving, they praised Gu Yin’s fish ravioli.

Gu Yin’s heart was slightly fixed.

In fact, eating was a matter of taste, and each flower appeals to each eye, just like the sweet dishes in the south couldn’t reach the mouths of Sichuan people who liked spicy food, she was not sure whether her craftsmanship would be favored by Mrs. Wang’s and others. People other than Xiao Wu’an recognized it.

But when the tastes of the two guests were obviously inconsistent, and they both praised her wontons for being delicious, she knew that her worries were unnecessary.

But even if she was not in a hurry, Mrs. Wang next to her was in a hurry.

If only two bowls were sold in the half-morning, how much money could they make that day?

“Mother, sit down and rest.” When Gu Yin saw that Mrs. Wang’s throat was dry, she poured a bowl of hot water and handed it to her, “We can’t be in a hurry since we just arrived, and it will get better gradually. “

Just like when she took over the family’s porridge shop in her previous life, the old customers doubted her craftsmanship when they saw her young and tender face. At that time, the business in the shop was also reduced by nearly half.

But as time passed, those who had tasted her craft became customers, not only the old customers came back, but also many new customers gradually added, and the business became more prosperous.

“I’m not in a hurry, I’m not in a hurry,” Mrs Wang muttered to herself, not knowing whether she was comforting Gu Yin or herself.

After drinking a sip of water, Mrs. Wang was still unwilling to rest.

Seeing her like that, Gu Yin knew that she was in a hurry.

Her mother-in-law didn’t close her eyes all night. If Mrs. Wang was in a bad mood again, she was afraid that she would not be able to sleep again at night.

Even though Mrs. Wang was in good health, how many days could she endure so anxiously? She was afraid that she would fall ill first.

Gu Yin pondered for a long time, then thought, “Actually, I have a way, but I’ll wrong you.”

“Hey, if there’s a way, why not say it earlier?!” Mrs. Wang put down the water bowl and slapped the table, “As long as I can sell more, I won’t have any grievances!”
